    Excel Formula Problem
    Hi all

    I was wondering if anyone can help me with an EXCEL FORMULA I'm trying to perfect?

    PROBLEM: I have a range of numbers on my spreadsheet (11 to 17) and I want them to have the same value =2

    also a range of numbers (18 to 24) and I want to have the same value =1

    Can anyone send me the formula ASAP to:

    [Removed - please use PMs or post here]

    I'm getting very very :mad: with this problem.

    Am I right in thinking that you want if the number falls on one range you want to give it one value and if it's in the different range you want a different value? I can probably do whatever you're looking for but you are not very specific.

    make a table somewhere on the spreadsheet:
    11,2
    12,2
    ..
    17,2
    18,1
    19,1
    ..
    24,1

    the go back to your data array and do a vlookup next to the column of data

    i.e assume the numbers were in column A with first number being in a2, then in b2 type: =vlookup(a2,e2:f20,2,0), where e2:f20 is the table with the key you made above.

    hope this helps
