I currently have a long If statement to calculate a person's performance
based on their scores. I believe the if statement is too long because Excel
is not liking the formula after I added two more parts to it. If someone has
any idea on how to make this work, I would be more than grateful.


=IF(AND(C3=114,D3=92),"Champion",if(and(c3=114, d3=75),"Oriented",if(and(c3107,
d3-77),"Oriented",if(and(c3=100,d3=79),"Oriented",I f(and(c3=86,d3=80),"Oriented",if(and(c3=85,d3=8 6),"Oriented",if(and(c3=84,d3=87),"Oriented",if(a nd(c3=82,d3=89),
"Oriented",if(and(c3=80,d3=91),"Oriented","Perfo rmance")))))))))

Columns C and D basically just have diffent scores for their performances.

Thanks

Logically, what differentiates a Champion from Oriented from Performance?
Those seem to be the only 3 classifications. You could create an aggregate
score based on the two performance scores and then use this to VLOOKUP a
classficiation

In pre-2007 version of Excel you can nest to 7 levels
I have a solution to your problem using MATCH and INDEX
It would take too long to give description

We have a grid based on the two metrics. We can only look at the two metrics
when trying to find their overall performance. We have a grid so is there a
way to use vlookup to find the spot on the grid that it corresponds to? The
grid is too large to paste here.

Thanks

If you put the above table in cells A1:AK20 of Sheet2 then you can try
the following formula to find the score.

=CHOOSE(VLOOKUP(D3,Sheet2!A1:AK20,MATCH(C3,Sheet2! A1:AK1)),"Performance","Oriented","Champion")

Hope this helps / Lars-Åke

So if I'm reading this right, if both col C = 114 and col D = 92,
the result should be Champion, but there's a trade-off between cols C
and D to determine whether an individual is Oriented or Performance.
That could be handled using nested lookups, e.g.,

=IF(AND(C3=114,D3=92),"Champion",
IF(D3=LOOKUP(C3,{80;82;84;85;86;100;107;114},
{91;89;87;86;80;79;77;75}),"Oriented","Performance "))

Safer and more flexible to put these ranges into a 2-column table.
