Im trying to setup my key for lookup parameters. Is there a way to set a range for it look for in one cell?

Example, If a product ends up being 89.9% in one cell, and I am asking another cell to display its end result with a word.

In my legend/key can I place the range of 80%-90% in the 1 column and Excellent in the 2nd column.


How can I make this work? Or do I have to use each percentage in a seperate cell with the description next to each?

Thanks in advance, and hope this wasnt too confusing.

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
You're welcome.

FYI: You could put the "legend/key" within the formula...
=LOOKUP(A1,{0,0.5,0.7,0.8,0.9},{"Fail","Poor","OK","Excellent","Wow"})

You could also use vlookup but using TRUE at the end that will have the same effect.
