Good morning fellow excel users,

Quick question, is it possible to pull the "<" symbol from a cell for a formula.

For example lets say I have this formula.
A1=1
In cell A2 =IF(A1=1,">","<")
A3=2
A4= =IF(A1&A2&A3,"greater than","less than") <---- Trying to fix this to read if A1>A3, greater than else less than.

Of course it more complex than this but I am trying to use an if statement to determine if I need greater than or less than symbol than to use that information to compare it elsewhere.

Best way to learn Power Query?
Read M is for (Data) Monkey book by Ken Puls and Miguel Escobar. It is the complete guide to Power Query.
Maybe:
VBA Code:
Range("A4").Formula = "=If(" & Range("A1").Address & Range("A2").Value & Range("A3").Address & ",""Greater than"",""Less than"")"
