IF Function Returns False Positive

May 7, 2009

I have calculated the t values then i have three tables for 3 confidence levels, 0.01, 0.05,0.1 in which I compare the t value with the value from the
t-test table. If the t value is larger it returns a 1, if not a 0. This works fine.

To summarise the information I have a final table which I wish to return the highest significance of the given t value.

I am using this
=IF((G53=1),0.01,(IF(G44=1,0.05,(IF(G35=10,0.05,"none")))))

the problem I have is it always returns 0.01 even if g53=0. If i remove the formula from g53 and replace it with a 0, it returns 0.05 instead (even if g44 is retruning a 0).

I have considered copy paste values and doing this but that rather removes the automation aspect of the spreadsheet if I need to make adjustments.

AND Function Returns Zero For FALSE & One For TRUE

Oct 18, 2007

I've been asked to adjust some thing with a worksheet someone else created. On the sheet labeled "Criteria" there is a list of dates and some formulas that use these dates. I can't figure out why the result of the formula is a number, i.e "0"; I thought it is supposed to return "TRUE" or "FALSE". If I insert a new sheet, within the same workbook, and insert the same formula, I get "TRUE" or "FALSE". For some reason, the "Criteria" worksheet doesn't return "TRUE" or "FALSE", it returns numbers. I just need to know why this is happening so I can replicate it in the new workbook I'm creating.

IF Statement Returns Either Value Error Or False

Jan 7, 2010

if Statement A: =IF(M4>$B$17,0,LOOKUP(M4,$AA$20:$AB$29)*$B$15/12) works very well

if Statement B: =IF(M4>$B$17,0,LOOKUP(M4,$AA$36:$AB$44)*$B$15/12) works well too

now I am trying to say

=IF('Input Page'!B36="yes",(IF(M4>$B$17,0,LOOKUP(M4,$AA$36:$AB$44)*$B$15/12),(IF(M4>$B$17,0,LOOKUP(M4,$AA$20:$AB$29)*$B$15/12))))

Basically, if B36 is yes, use If Statement B, otherwise IF Statement A. If I write Yes, I get a "Value" error, if I change the yes to 1, I get a FALSE error.

IF Statement: Just Returns FALSE, Despite The Result Being True

Dec 29, 2008

I have a worksheet called "Raw Data" where in columns J, I and G contain values. I would like to write a formula whereby if all 3 conditions are met, it will count the number of values found in column C.

I've tried to write an IF statement but it just returns FALSE, despite the result being true. Need the right combination of IF/AND statements that would do this?

=IF(AND('Raw Data'!$J:$J="Maintenance",'Raw Data'!$I:$I="Open",'Raw Data'!$G:$G="1-2008"),COUNT('Raw Data'!$C:$C)). I've tried to attach the workbook, but there's a problem with uploading attachments I think. Sorry if my explanation is unclear.

Comparing 2 Identical Numbers Returns False

Sep 23, 2007

I have some problem with my data here. I have created a formula to compare the numeric value between the column. I want to have the results in the column but the results I have is wrong. Did i did something wrong with the formula?

I wanna compare the value from A2 and C2, B2 and D2. If the results is correct, then is will display true value in e2 else will display false value in e2.

when i compare 2.3oz and 2.25oz, the value displayed is true which is wrong, it should display "false"

I have attached the file here...

How Do I Write A Positive/negative And Red/green Function?

May 19, 2009

I'm trying to make a "weight-based" spreadsheet. I want to show a difference between numbers so if an item lost 5 lbs, there would be a "-5" and it would be in green font showing good.

For example, a box weighs 20 lbs and then drops down to 15 lbs. This would be a good result. So I would have 20 lbs in A4 and 15 lbs in A6 and I want to show the difference in A8. However, since I want the box to lose weight, I want it to show a negative value of "-5" in green font meaning it is good. And vice versa, I want it to show "+3" in red font if the box gained weight.

I can't really figure out how to get the signs working properly. I'm assuming to use an "if" function in where if the difference is a loss, show the negative sign and have it in green font. And if the difference is a gain, show the positive sign in red font.

DATE Function & IF Function (return A TRUE Or FALSE Based On A Date In A Cell)

Dec 8, 2009

I am trying to return a TRUE or FALSE based on a date in a cell.

for example:

if cell A1 = 07/11/2009

I want A2 to show TRUE or FALSE if A1 is 14 days or more behind todays date.

I have tried stuff like:

=IF(A1=TODAY()-14,"True","False")

but it just always says false. EDIT: I have just noticed that if I change the date in A1 to exactly 14 days behind todays, it returns TRUE. So, it does work. Do I need to add a GREATER THAN in there?

IF Function To Return A False Value

Jun 5, 2009

I am trying to use the IF function to return a false value if the combined sum of a row is not the same as either of the 1st 2 cells. If that makes any sense!

This is the formula I would like to use. =IF(SUM(g3:g9)=g1 or g2 then y if true and x if false. I thought it would be easy but I can't figure out how to do it

IF Function Gives FALSE Not Blank

Jan 18, 2007

I am still having bother with if statemnts (within a cell in excel - not a macro)
Sicarii kindly assisted me the other day with this...

=IF(A1="&","V",IF(A1=" &"," V"))
*note* there is nothing set in this for FALSE.

How do I get the statement to return nothing (i.e.: have "" in the return) instead of 'false'? To explain further, I have in a column, the following:
&
^ & (i.e.:'(space)&')
&
33

Module Function (square Root Always To Be Positive So I Get A Result)

Dec 7, 2009

I have a formula and in it is a square root, i want the formula inside the square root always to be positive so i get a result.

Example:

(A1)
-1
(A2)
0
(A3)
-2

(C1)
=(A1)^0.25
(C2)
=(A2)^0.25
(C3)
=(A3)^0.25

Now i only get a result from the last two, but i want to use the modulus function so that instead of a maths error i get 1 for the first one, how do i do this?

2007 - Using The True False Function

Dec 10, 2009

This is probably quite a simple request but here goes:-


=SUM(h2,e2-f2)

I would like excel to perform this calculation but only if another cell contains a date. I couldn't figure out how to do that so I added another column next to that cell and added =ISNUMBER(A8) to return a true or false statement. I was then going to hide this column but still refer to it.

transaction cleared amount amount balance
date date in out
A B C D E F H
1 $500.00 BALANCE BROUGHT FORWARD
2 1/1/10 TRUE 1/2/10 TRUE $5.00 =SUM(h2,e2-f2)
3 1/2/10 TRUE FALSE $300.00 =SUM(h3,e3-f3)
4
5
6
7

I don't know if this makes sense of if anyone can suggest another way of working this out. New to excel so sorry if this is basic stuff.

Stop IF Function Returning FALSE

Oct 12, 2007

I have two columns A & B. If I enter "Short" into Col A, I want "Long" to automatically appear in Col B, and vice versa. This is the code I have created so far. =IF(C4="Short","Long",IF(C4="Long","Short",IF(C4="",""))). This works but when I paste the formula into all cells in Col B, I get "FALSE" showing up in every cell. How can I stop the "FALSE" from populating every cell in Col B while Col A remains blank?

Function Design Return True Or False

Jul 27, 2009

I'm trying to determine if a rangeName is defined so that I can delete it without a programming error. I've used the idea that if I try to goto a non-existant rangeName, I'll get an error. I've tried to design a function that will return true or false if the rangeName is defined on the basis of that idea. Can you take a look at the code and see where I went wrong?

SUM Function Returns #VALUE!

Have a spreadsheet prepared by someone else on older Excel version exported from database. The sum and count functions work fine both vertically and horizontally, but trying to add selected cells returns #VALUE! Attached is small range of 50-col x 2500 row spreadsheet. Original content is highlighted in yellow. See cell E2. I assume the forumula is seeing number content as text. How do I convert the entire spreadsheet to numbers.

IF Function To Stop 401k Match At 1500 If False

May 6, 2009

I'm trying to create a IF function to stop at $1500 for 401k employer match. To make it simple the variable in column D is constant but in reality it's based on 50% match amt up to $1500 of amount contribute(% of gross pay). The accumulation of matching is a rolling balance. If the match amt is less 1500, then match amt. But False, the left over amt equal 1500 then STOP there onward.

IF(SUM($D$3:D19)+($C20*0.5)<1500,$C20*0.5,SUM($D$3:D19)+($C20*0.5)-1500)

I need to check one column to see if it is less than another one
If it is I need to have the IF function return specific criteria for true and then for false but then I also need it to rely on the results of another question from another column if the result of the first query is less than the figure in another column again I need to return specific criteria for tur and then for false
An AND function requires both to be true but when one isnt what do I write?

Function That Returns The First Value In An Array

Jan 24, 2007

I am working on a Monthly Vehicle Spread Sheet. One of the outputs I am trying to achieve is an automatic calculation of Mile Per Gallon. To do this, I need to know if there is a function that will return the value of the first entry of a group of cells.

In calculating the miles per gallon, I need to subtract the first gallon amount entry of the total gallons in the month, then divide that number into the difference of the mileage in the month recorded when the vehicles fueled up.

Mid Function Returns Odd Results

Jun 1, 2006

I'm using the following phrase out of a much longer expression to
demonstrate that the return value of the MID function seems to be nothing I
can understand.

This expression:

=MID("6/10x",1,FIND("x","6/10x)-1))

returns 6/10 as text which makes sense. However I was under the impression
that when text in Excel contains numeric characters, it can be interpreted
as a number. So then how does the following expression,

=MID("6/10x",1,FIND("x","6/10x)-1)*1

return the result 38878? Does it still think it's text?
