Help with IF function
Am trying to create a formula that will tell me: if the range of cells has
the single letter "R" or the single letter "T" in the individuals cells, it will return the word "Pass", or otherwise will return the word "Fail". Thanks, -- Michelle |

Help with IF function
I'm assuming you mean if *any* cell in the range contains a R or T.
Assume the range in question is A1:A10... =IF(SUM(COUNTIF(A1:A10,{"R","T"})),"Pass","Fail") If *every* cell in the range is empty the result of the formula will be Fail. Don't know if that's what you want. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Michelle" wrote in message ...

Thank you for your replies, but I obviously didn't make myself clear. Am
trying to create a formula whe if the range of cells has the letter "R" or "T" in the cells, then the result will be "pass", but if any cell is blank or has a different letter in it, then the result will be "fail".

OK, just need a slight modification:

Help with IF function
Thank you, but the formula doesn't give me the correct result. If I have
either "T" or "R" in all the cells, it gives me a "Fail" result, when I need a "Pass" result. -- Michelle "T.

Help with IF function
It works for me. Post the *exact* formula you used.
If all cells contain a R or if all cells contain a T or if all cells contain either a R or a T the formula returns Pass. If there are any empty cells or any entry other than a R or T the formula returns Fail. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "Michelle" wrote in message ...

No it doesn't... there is a flaw in it. It will show a pass if there is the
same number of empty cells as there are characters that are not an R or T. Rick "Michelle" wrote in message ... Works perfectly!
