Nested IFs
I am using nested IFs to determine the number of days between two events. If
the two events occurred on the same day, how do I return a 1 instead of 0 and not affect the calculation for other date ranges? The current statement is =IF(O29="Void","Void",IF(O29="Spare","Spare",IF(O2 9="Open","Open",IF(O29="Closed",N29-D29," ")))) where n29 is date opened and d29 is date closed and o29 is the status Thanks -- Larry |

Nested IFs
=IF(O29="Void","Void",IF(O29="Spare","Spare",IF(O2 9="Open","Open",IF(O29="Closed",MIN(N29-D29,1)," "))))
Hope this helps. -- John C "lwilliams" wrote: I am using nested IFs to determine the number of days between two events.

Nested IFs
You could get rid of some of the nested IFs as well, by the following:
=IF(OR(O29="Void",O29="Spare",O29="Open"),O29,IF(O 29="Closed",MIN(N29-D29,1)," ",)))) -- John C "lwilliams" wrote: I am using nested IFs to determine the number of days between two events.

Wow, I really like the second statement. I guess you can tell I'm only a
hack at this.

Nested IFs
You have two too many of these ")"
the formula can be reduce further =IF(OR(O29={"Void","Spare","Open"}),O29,IF(O29="Cl osed",MIN(N29-D29,1)," ",)) "John C" wrote: You could get rid of some of the nested IFs as well, by the following: =IF(OR(O29="Void",O29="Spare",O29="Open"),O29,IF(O 29="Closed",MIN(N29-D29,1)," ",)))) -- John C "lwilliams" wrote: I am using nested IFs to determine the number of days between two events.

Nested IFs
Whew! Saved 5 characters there. Nevermind the crux of it is eliminating as
many IF statements as possible, I guess those extra 5 characters will give me time to do my taxes, get my laundry done, and feed the cats. -- John C "Teethless mama" wrote: You have two too many of these ")" the formula can be reduce further =IF(OR(O29={"Void","Spare","Open"}),O29,IF(O29="Cl osed",MIN(N29-D29,1)," ",)) "John C" wrote: You could get rid of some of the nested IFs as well, by the following: =IF(OR(O29="Void",O29="Spare",O29="Open"),O29,IF(O 29="Closed",MIN(N29-D29,1)," ",)))) -- John C "lwilliams" wrote: I am using nested IFs to determine the number of days between two events.
