Assigning a value???


Posted by Brittany on July 27, 2001 3:27 PM

I could change columns B and C to an X vs P and B if formula would be easier to calculate..

There will never be a value in B and C at the same time nor a value in E and F at the same time...

P in Col B and X in Col E = 4 in Col D
P in Col B and X in Col F = 3 in Col D
B in Col C and X in Col E = 3 in Col D
B in Col C and X in Col F = 2 in Col D

Col B = If it contains P will have a value of 2
Col C = If it contains B will have a value of 1
Col D = Sum of B, C, E and F
Col E = If it contains X will have a value of 2
Col F = If it contains X will have a value of 1

Thank you!

Brittany,

In D2 enter the following Boolean formula and copy down as far as needed.

=(B2="P")*2+(F2="X")*1+(C2="B")*1+(E2="X")*2
