if statement with multiple conditions

Posted by Blind Ric on January 17, 2001 12:04 PM

I have a number in cells A1 through L1. I am trying to put in a formula into cell B3 that checks the content of cell A3. If A3 equals any of the numbers in cells A1 through L1, it will put the word yes, and it will put the word no otherwise. I tried a huge embedded netwrok of if statements, but it did not work. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Look into the "For Each .. in .." structure... it might be what you need.

I hope I got your question right.

B3 =IF(COUNTIF(A1:A5,A3)>=2,"Yes","No")

Try this formula:

=IF(ISNA(HLOOKUP(A3,A1:L1,1,FALSE)),"No","Yes")

Gone too fast: Change the formula to:

B3 =IF(COUNTIF(A1:L1,A3)>=1,"Yes","No")

{=IF(OR(A3=A1:L1),"Yes","No")}
