Case statement using nested ifs

[Jak7217]

Hey All!

I am running into an issue I can't figure out. I've got a big set of data and there is a specific column that I want to make a case statement based on the results.

If the field, lets call it A1, is...
=42
or =43
or is between 70 - 99, excluding 79 and 81
then I want to call it "Yes"

Can anyone help me with the syntax on this? I am struggling to get it right.

You said:
big set of data and there is a specific column
did not say what column You just said A1
And what does this mean:
You said "Call it "Yes"

What does call it "Yes" mean

And for best answer provide specific details like you said:

You said:
=42
or =43
or is between 70 - 99, excluding 79 and 81

Is this exactly what you want or are you just giving examples

removed F ()

BUT i'm sure more is involved in this

Note: Images are difficult to see , and also requires that I input all the data myself, which is very time consuming.

A SMALL sample spreadsheet, around 10-20 rows, would help a lot here, with all sensitive data removed, and expected results mocked up and manually entered, with a few notes of explanation.

MrExcel has a tool called “XL2BB” that lets you post samples of your data and will allow us to copy/paste your sample data into our Excel spreadsheets, saving a lot of time.

You can also test to see if it works ok, in the "Test Here" forum.

OR if you cannot get XL2BB to work, or have restrictions on your PC , then put the sample spreadsheet onto a share
I only tend to goto OneDrive, Dropbox or google docs , as I'm never certain of other random share sites and possible virus.
Please make sure you have a representative data sample and also that the data has been desensitised, remember this site is open to anyone with internet access to see - so any sensitive / personal data should be removed

Sorry for unclear wording. I just want to write a statement that if cell A1 meets any of the criteria below then the output of my if statement will say "Yes".

=42
or =43
or is between 70 - 99, excluding 79 and 81

how about

=IF(A1="","",IF( OR( A1 =42, A1 = 43, AND(A1>=70, A1 <=99,A1<>79,A1<>81)), "yes", "no"))

Book3
	A	B
1	42	yes
2	2	no
3	6	no
4	79	no
5	3	no
6	12	no
7	81	no
8	99	yes
9	88	yes
10	70	yes
11
12
Sheet1

B1:B12	B1	=IF(A1="","",IF( OR( A1 =42, A1 = 43, AND(A1>=70, A1 <=99,A1<>79,A1<>81)), "yes", "no"))

This is exactly what I was looking for - thank you!

Glad to see you received an answer. Your subject title says Case Statement which is used in Excel vba. So that made me think you wanted to use vba and use case
