Default Nested If/Then statements


Hello Everyone,
I sure could use a little help. I started with this If/Then statement
and it seems to get hung at what I understand to be the 1st "test".
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here......I'm loading this statement
for 8 different values (all under 500) and its supposed to bring back a
response for each value, but all it lists is the V. Any help would be
appreciated.

=IF(B4<=500,"V",IF(B4<=400,"W",IF(B4<=300,"X",IF(B 4<=200,"Y",IF(B4<=100,"Z","")))))

it will return V for any value in b4 <= 500 - you need to invert it to
get what you want

=IF(B4<=500,"V",IF(B4<=400,"W",IF(B4<=300,"X",IF(B
4<=200,"Y",IF(B4<=100,"Z","")))))

=IF(B4<=100,"Z",IF(B4<=200,"Y",IF(B4<=300,"X",IF(B 4<=400,"W",IF(B4<=500,"V","")))))

will return for B$

Z <=100
Y 100<B4<=200
X 200<B4<=300
W 300<B4<=400
V 400<B4<=500
"" anything else

You kinda got it backwards.

If all values are <500 then you will always get "V"

Start with the lowest value.

=IF(B4<=100,"Z",IF(B4<=200,"Y",IF(B4<=300,"X",IF(B 4<=400,"W",IF(B4<=500,"V")))))

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate the help. Your info helped get me
over that hurdle. It sometimes sucks when you're trying to teach
yourself without anyone to work with.
