hi dalmom
i found out today that excel has a limit of 7 'if's'. i got this answer from teethless mom =LOOKUP(B3,{0,59,63,69,72,75,79,82,85,89,92},{"F", "D","D+","C-","C","C+","B-","B","B+","A-","A"}) it looks like you enter enter your data backwards -- VD, mistress in progress "dalmom" wrote: I need some help... what I need to do is: IF(a1=1,40,if(a1=2,38)) BUT, I need to make this so that a1 goes all the way to 17 and I need the value if true to drop by 2 each time.

=IF(OR(A1<=0,A117),"",40-A1*2+2) Biff "dalmom" wrote in message ...

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for your help, that worked! After looking at it for 30 seconds, I had to slap my head and say.... that was almost to easy for me to think of doing! I think Im like so many others who make things more complicated than they need to be. Again, thank you so much!
