Multiple IF statements and separate formulas

I am trying to build a formula that will verify a word in the first section and in another section, however if the word was to change the. It will produce a separate result. I have been able to complete it for one result but once I try and build upon it the formula no longer works. It says I have too many arguments.

=IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"5M"},I4)),IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"Actual"},AI4)),IF(AND(S4>Sheet3!C$19,S4<Sheet3!D$19),"Pass","Fail")),IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"5M"},I4)),IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"False load"},AI4)),IF(AND(S4>Sheet3!E$19,S4<Sheet3!F$19),"Pass","Fail"))),IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"7M"},I4)),IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"Actual"},AI4)),IF(AND(S4>Sheet3!C$20,S4<Sheet3!D$20),"Pass","Fail")),IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"7M"},I4)),IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"False load"},AI4)),IF(AND(S4>Sheet3!E$20,S4<Sheet3!F$20),"Pass","Fail")))))
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
I think your forum post is trying to turn your formula into HTML. Can you put a space after what I assume is an "<" after the S4?

Here is the formula again

=IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"5M"},I4)),IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"Actual"},AI4)),IF(AND(S4 > Sheet3!C$19,S4 < Sheet3!D$19),"Pass","Fail")),IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"5M"},I4)),IF(COUNT(SEARCH({"False load"},AI4)),IF(AND(S4 > Sheet3!C$19,S4 < Sheet3!D$19),"Pass","Fail"))))

I am getting a False message instead of getting a pass fail. or if I make some changes then I am getting a to many arguments

Figero21, Good evening.

Try to use:

=IF(AND(COUNT(SEARCH("5M",I4)),COUNT(SEARCH({"Actual","False Load"},A14)), S4 > Sheet3!C$19, S4 < Sheet3!D$19),"Pass","Fail")
<sheet3!d$19),"pass","fail")
<sheet3!d$19),"pass","fail")

Please, tell us if it worked as you desired.

I hope it helps.</sheet3!d$19),"pass","fail")
</sheet3!d$19),"pass","fail")

<sheet3!d$19),"pass","fail")
That didn't work unfortunately. When you change the search to find "False load" instead of "Actual" the search criteria also changes. I need it to find data in E$19 and F$19 if it is "false load" and c$19 and D$19 if it is "actual"

Sorry full formula didn't save with last post.

=IF(AND(COUNT(SEARCH("5M",I4)),COUNT(SEARCH({"Actual","False Load"},AI4)), S4>Sheet3!C$19, S4<Sheet3!D$19),"Pass","Fail")

Figero21, Good evening.

My suggested formula was built based on your original formula.

Since you have now changed the search range, you need a new logic and a new formula.

Try to use:


=IF(COUNT(SEARCH("5M",I4)),IF(OR(AND(COUNT(SEARCH("Actual",AI4)),S4 > Sheet3!C$19,S4 < Sheet3!D$19), AND(COUNT(SEARCH("False load",AI4)),S4 > Sheet3!E$19, S4 < Sheet3!F$19)),"Pass","Fail"), "")

Please, tell us if it worked for you now.
I hope it helps.

Marcílio_Lobão,

=IF(COUNT(SEARCH("5M",I4)),IF(OR(AND(COUNT(SEARCH("Actual",AI4)),S4 > Sheet3!C$19,S4 < Sheet3!D$19), AND(COUNT(SEARCH("False load",AI4)),S4 > Sheet3!E$19, S4 < Sheet3!F$19)),"Pass","Fail"), "")

Thanks, That formula worked amazing. I had one other problem with the formula. How could I duplicate this formula so that if I were to also change the word from 5M to 11M it would change the selection also? I need all of this info to be added to the same cell.

Thanks

Marcílio_Lobão,


My additional problem is that the first word search has several different changes that need to change and take effect also. I have a total of 23 different words to put into that section. Each one had a different factor to it which changes the end amount. As long as I can change the 5M to 11M or 7M or 750 ect then it should change for the rest. When I try and duplicate it in the same cell it isn't working.

Thanks.
