=IF(ISNUMBER(A3),IF(A3>1000,2.5,IF(A3>=500,3,IF(A3<500,3.5,""))),"") OR =IF(ISNUMBER(A3),IF(A3<500,3.5,IF(AND(A3>=500,A3<=1000),3,IF(A3>1000,2.5,""))),"") At the same time herewith I have attached a sample file for your reference. ----------------------- Ms.Exl.Learner ----------------------- On Wed, Dec 29, 2010 at 11:13 AM, J D <springer...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks.
