Check value of cells against condition?

[jgruberman]

Hello,

I am looking to check a table of sports team names, times and ranking and if their ranking is 3 or lower and their game time is 9pm or later, to flag them somehow, perhaps with another cell with a yes/no or just any sort of identifier that the team fits the specified criteria. Here is an excerpt:

2/4	9:45 PM	Warriors D1	Bulldogs D1	D1	Valley Ranch StarCenter	Green	1	5
2/4	3:30 PM	GRITR D2	Fighting Squids D2	D2	Valley Ranch StarCenter	Hitchcock	5	4

you could use an AND() and will get true or false
not sure where the ranking column is

assuming the time is in column B and the ranking is in column H

=AND( B2 >=timevalue("21:00:00"), H2<=3)

you could use with an IF() to get a YES or NO
=IF( AND( B2 >=timevalue("21:00:00"), H2<=3) , "Yes", "No")

or in conditional formating use a formula

=AND( $B2 >=timevalue("21:00:00"), $H2<=3)

otherwise
Note: Images are difficult to see , and also requires that I input all the data myself, which means I may make an error, which is very time consuming, and from my point of view less likely to get a response, if a complicated spreadsheet. Plus we cannot see any of the formulas used.

Therefore -

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.

This will possibly enable a quicker and more accurate solution for you.

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

Make sure you set any share or google to share to everyone

You can use Conditional Format Formula to mark them out. But can't find ranking or column headers in the sample data you have shared to give you a formula.

Here is with added header, starting at A1. Sorry about that, new to posting here

i did post best way to post here FY1

and a solution - BUT guessed the ranking column - just change for the actual ranking column

where is the ranking ?

Check #2 I believe @etaf has given optimal solution...

The ranking is the number values in the last two columns. Each team is ranked by their rink preferences, respectively per team

so are looking for either H or I column if less = 3 to be flagged
if so then
=IF( AND( B2 >=TIMEVALUE("21:00:00"), OR(H2<=3,I2<=3)), "Yes", "No")

By the way, are you trying to do this in Excel or Google Sheets?
I ask because I see that your previous question was for Google Sheets, and you posted this to the "General Discussion & Other Applications" forum.

I tried the formula posted, but it seems I did something wrong? I think the Away Flag should be "Yes" since it's 10pm and 3.
