"IF" "AND" Functions

[Craig S.]

I am using the "IF" & "AND" statments to have a certain
number look into a table and pick a ceratin cell.

The formula I used will not accept the last AND
statement. My question is, does excel limit the number
of "AND" statements you can use in a formula?

My next question is, is there another function I can use.

I have a listing as follows:

1-10 = a
10-20 =b
20-30 =c
30-40 =d

I have a cell the contains the value of 33. I want the
next cell to contain the formula that will return the
value of "d" to this cell. I know I can use IF & AND
functions, but the formula below is giving me an error.




=IF(AND(C222>=$B$232,C222<=$C$232),$AA$234,IF(AND
(C222>=$B$235,C222<=$C$235),$AA$237,IF(AND
(C222>=$B$238,C222<=$C$238),$AA$240,IF(AND
(C222>=$B$241,C222<=$C$241),$AA$243,IF(AND
(C222>=$B$244,C222<=$C$244),$AA$246,IF(AND
(C222>=$B$247,C222<=$C$247),$AA$249,IF(AND
(C222>=$B$250,C222<=$C$250),$AA$252,IF(AND
(C222<=$C$253,C222>=B253),$AA$255,0))))))))


Thanks for any help!!!!!!!!

If you can send me your file...or send me a

file/spreadsheet with bogus numbers in it, I may be able
to play with it. I have used if/ands before... but not to
this extent.. but you never know.

hi Craig,
Excel is limited to 7 nested staements. For your issue I would use
VLOOKUP. Change your listing as follows (split the range numbers):
A B C
1 10 a <- you have to decide where the 10 belongs
11 20 b
....

Now if your cell D1 contains the number 33 use the following formula to
get the character:
=VLOOKUP(D1,A1:C20,3,1)

Mike, the correct formula should be:

=IF(AND(E3>=B3,E3<C3),D3,IF(AND(E3>=B4,E3<C4),D4,IF(AND(E3>=B5,E3<C5),D5,IF(AND(E3>=B6,E3<C6),D6,""))))

the references are:

E3=Value to check
B3=1
C3=10
D3=A

B4=10
C4=20
E4=B

B5=20
C5=30
D5=C

B6=30
C6=40
D6=D

Formula is placed in cell F3. It is always comparing that the value to
be verified must be grater than or equal than the first value and less
than the second value.
Let me know if that solves the problem.

best regards.
