I have 12 columns with values in (example row - FU3:GF3)
I want cell FT3 to check if 'any' cell in the row of 12 has a negative value then result with "Minus"

Instead of having to type 12 IF conditions, is there a simpler option?


Thanks

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
tey this in FT3 and copy down

=IF(COUNTIF(FU3:GF3,"<0")>0,"Minus","")

Try

=IF(SUMPRODUCT(--(FU3:GF3<0))>0;"Minus";"")
