Default Formula question


=IF(B19:F19 = "Incorrect Figure", "Refused", IF(B19:F19 = "Perfect
Score", "Applicant Accepted", IF(B5="admit", IF(C5="Admit",
IF(D5="Admit", IF(E5="Admit", IF(F5="Admit", "APPLICANT ACCEPTED",
"APPLICANT DENIED")))))))

Thats my wonderful forumal. It odens't work.

Basically what i think it says is "If any cells through b19:f19 =
"incorrect figure" than refused, else check to see if any of the cells
in b19:f19 =perfect score then accept, and if not then check each
individual criteria.

But it doenst work.

pinehead,


methinks too many IFs in the statement.

Try

=IF(B19:F19 = "Incorrect Figure", "Refused", IF(OR(B19:F19 = "Perfect
Score", B5="admit",C5="Admit",D5="Admit", E5="Admit", F5="Admit"),
"APPLICANT ACCEPTED", "APPLICANT DENIED"))

Thanks, Bob

Pinehead, you may notice that spelling, capitalization, punctuation all
matter here. Below you see "admit" and "Admit". Data entry needs to be
precise, and I'm not the one to know haw to check for all of the different
permutations for input.

Good luck

Beege
