Replacement of "IF(OR( ))"
Dear sir,
I have an excel formular which involve 3 cells, A1, B1 and C1. The value in cell of A1, B1 and C1 is 2,6 & 2. I place this formular, IF(OR(A1=B1, A1=C1) , A1, "-") in the cell A5 and the result shown in A5 is 2. My question is that I want to know is there other excel formular can replace this formula? The reason I want to know because in the real world, it may involve more than 3 cells e.g. 5 cells. The multiple effect of the formular will be extremely massive if I still apply this formular: IF(OR( )). I hope you can advice me on this. Many thanks, Wilchong -- Message posted via http://www.officekb.com |

You could use one of these:
=IF(COUNTIF(B1:C1,A1),A1,"-") =IF(ISNA(MATCH(A1,B1:C1,0)),"-",A1) -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "wilchong via OfficeKB.com" <u43231@uwe wrote in message news:93273c20709b1@uwe...

Replacement of "IF(OR( ))"
Dear T. Valko,
Thanks for your advice. I have studied your formula carefully. Your suggested formular work perfectly for IF(OR(A1=B1, A1=C1), A1, "-") situation. I am encountering the new situation like this IF(OR(B1=A1, B1=C1), B1, "-"). Because the parameter, B1, is located in the middle of the series number, therefore, IF(COUNTIF( )) cannot be work. I am wondering other formula can be deal with this situation. According to my example, the result which shown in the cell of A5 is 2, B5 is "-" and C5 is 2. From this way, I can see the "2" has repeated in the location 1st and 3rd cell. Your advice is valuable! Many thanks, Wilchong T.

Replacement of "IF(OR( ))"
I'm not real sure what you're looking for. Maybe this:
=IF(COUNTIF($A1:$C1,A1)1,A1,"-") Copy across to a total of 3 cells. -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "wilchong via OfficeKB.com" <u43231@uwe wrote in message news:9327cefec35fd@uwe... Dear T.
