Make tick appear
Is it possible to make a tick or cross symbol appear in a cell when certain
criteria are met? e.g. If A1 equals B1 then tick appears in C1 or If A1 does not equal B1 then a cross appears in C1 |

One way...
format the font in C1 to Webdings, then use the following formula in C1... =IF(OR(A1="",B1=""),"",IF(AND(A1=B1),"a","r")) "a" in Webdings is a tick, while "r" is a cross. The formula results in a blank when either A1 or B1 are blank. Ken Johnson |

=IF(OR(A1="",B1=""),"",IF(A1=B1,"a","r")) Ken Johnson |

Wingdings? Tick character code 252 / 00FC - Symbol (decimal / hex) Cross character code 251 / 00FB - Symbol (decimal / hex) "Ken Johnson" wrote: Oops, I don't know why I put that other And in. Should have been... =IF(OR(A1="",B1=""),"",IF(A1=B1,"a","r")) Ken Johnson |

Try this:
=IF(OR(A1="",B1=""),"",IF(A1=B1,CHAR(252),CHAR(251 ))) Format the cell font to Wingdings -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Daniel" wrote in message ...
