May I please ask assistance to help generate the following IF formula.  Depending on what number value is in column 1, I want the column 2 to it to return a certain value.

 

If in column 1 the value is >980 then return the value in Column 2 to "Excellent"

If in column 1 the value is >950 but less than 980 then return the value in Column 2 to "Good"

If in column 1 the value is >930 but less than 950 then return the value in Column 2 to "Average"

If in column 1 the value is <930 then return the value in Column 2 to "Poor"

    Hi Victoria,

    The approach is to always ask the least inclusive question first, so the way that you have written it is excellent. The code that you are looking for is:

    =IF([Column2]1 > 980, "Excellent", IF([Column2]1 > 950, "Good", IF([Column2]1 > 930, "Average", "Poor")))

    But your specification is silent on what to do when [Column2]1 contains exactly 930. I have assumed that you meant <=930 in your fourth condition and that is what I have implemented above.

    Cheers,

    Rob.
