If logic for text
Hi,
I am creating a defect log in which i am trying to capture the severity of the defect based on its type. I have about 18 types of defect. What i want now is if the user selects 1-10 defects, the defect severity should be High and from 11-15, it has to be medium and from 16-18, it has to be low. Can some one help me with this formula please? Please note that this has to look at a cell with TEXT and not a value. Regards, Sri Harsha. |

Defect Table
First you have to make a table of defects. Defect Name(Col. A, text), Defect No.(Col. B,number) A$16:B$33 is your Defect table Suppose A10 is your defect text for which you want to return the defect severity B10 =VLOOKUP(A10;A$16:B$33;2;FALSE) converts the text to a number If you don't want to have the helping column of No. you can combine 2 live of function to each other , but I think this way it is easy to understand. =IF(AND(B100;B10<11);"High";IF(AND(B1010;B10<16) ;"Medium";IF(AND(B1015;B10<19);"Low";""))) converts the number to 3 category of High, Medium and Low -- R.

Hi,
In col B and col C type these values 1 High 11 Medium 16 Low Now you can use the VLOOKUP formula =vlookup(A5,B2:C4,2) -- Regards, Ashish Mathur Microsoft Excel MVP www.ashishmathur.com "Sri Harsha" <Sri wrote in message ...
