Hi

I have this formula that i have managed to get to return the results i need, but it is a it long-winded.

Is there a way this could be simplified?

=IF(C9=(TODAY()-7),"Retrain",IF(C9=(TODAY()-6),"Retrain",IF(C9=(TODAY()-5),"Retrain",IF(C9=(TODAY()-4),"Retrain",IF(C9=(TODAY()-3),"Retrain",IF(C9=(TODAY()-2),"Retrain",IF(C9=(TODAY()-1),"Retrain",IF(C9=(TODAY()),"Retrain",IF(C9<'Today -7'!$B$1,"Overdue","Ok")))))))))

I want Excel to return "Retrain" if an expiry date is within 7 days of todays date but if it has passed todays date to return "Overdue". If the expiry date is more than 7 days prior to todays date (Still valid) to return Ok"

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

Ernie
 

Excel Facts

VLOOKUP to Left?
Use =VLOOKUP(A2,CHOOSE({1,2},$Z$1:$Z$99,$Y$1:$Y$99),2,False) to lookup Y values to left of Z values.
How about
<today()-7,"overdue",if(c9></today()-7,"overdue",if(c9>=IF(C9< TODAY()-7,"Overdue",IF(C9 >TODAY(),"OK","Retrain"))

Good point, I missed that as was going more by the description than the formula.
