IF statement for time based data
I'm trying to use an IF statement for time based data. The data that I'm
evaluating is in the 0:05 time format, which is the same as [h]:mm format in custom formatting under cell formats. Here's the scenario. The data in cell k1 is 0:05. I'm trying to evaluate if this value is greater than or equal to 1 and at the same time less than or equal to 5. My current logic statement is set as: =IF(1<=k1<=5, "1-5",false). This returns false. I've also tried =IF(0:01<=k1<=0:05,"1-5",false), but that results in an error. Please help. |

Tried it, but it returns a blank. I also tried just 1 & 5 for the times
(e.g., k1=1), but that didn't help either. "daddylonglegs" wrote: Try this =IF(AND(K1="0:01"+0,K1<="0:05"+0),"1-5","") "Daren" wrote: I'm trying to use an IF statement for time based data.

If it doesn't work for you, then I guess that your data in K1 is not
actually a time, but text. If it's really a time, then if you change the format temporarily to Number it'll show was 0.00347222222222222 -- David Biddulph "Daren" wrote in message ...

Daren...I also like to learn from ur question...I hope we have a solution..

My suggested formula returns a blank if the time in K1 is not equal to or
between the specified limits. How is K1 generated, is there a formula in that cell? The actual value may be slightly above 0:05, e.g. if K1 contains 0:05:01 but the cell is formatted as h:mm. In this situation the value is above five minutes so the result is correct. "Daren" wrote: Tried it, but it returns a blank.

K1 is generated by an IF statement. The value in the cell is exactly 0:05.
What I'm trying to do is assign a range to this value and others. As an example, 0:05 would be caputred in the range 1-5, which I had previously as "1-5". Also, 0:08 would be captured in the range 6-10, which would be "6-10". The goal is to assign incremental ranges to the various actual times. The cell format for the range is [h]:mm, as is the 0:05 cell. Thanks and look forward to hearing back from you.

Yeah, your's are good also. Kinda tough work some time.

How many ranges do you have? If there are more than a few then you might be
better off with some sort of LOOKUP formula rather than multiple IFs. If K1 was exactly 0:05 then the formula I suggested should return "1-5", what's the formula in K1?

Tried that also but it doesn't work when I assign it as the upper control

Ok, your formula worked when the exact value in the cell was 0:05. Thanks!!!!

This formula will generate all your ranges, 1-5, 6-10, 11-15 etc by
calculation rather than multiple IFs - the only IF checks for K1 being at least 0:01 =IF(K1*60*24=1,TEXT(INT((K1*60*24+4)/5)*5-4,"0")&"-"&TEXT(INT((K1*60*24+4)/5)*5,"0"),"0") Hope this helps.
