Hello,

I have a list with articles which have technical criteria. I would now like to have the criteria returned as text but the complicated bit for me is how I can show the different temperatures... I tried if functions but it didn't really work. Would anybody know how best to solve this? My Excel version is 2016.

Many thanks in advance.

If "Higher Temperature" is ticked the temperature for UL, ATEX and IECEx should be 60, else 55
I am looking for a formula which will return all the criterias which are ticked as a text in column M. The formula can either work with the material number or description

Thanks Dante, it works in the way that I get the temperatures returned (60 and 55) but the actual words attributes mentioned. Where do i need to amend the formula to have it all returned?

Many thanks,
Natalie

You have to put the formula according to my example, in column M and in row 2.
My example starts at M2.
If your data is not as I put it in my example, then you must clearly explain where you have each of your data. An image would help a lot.
