What I am trying to do is assign a range of values a name. I have data from a football game such as down & distance, yard line, gain/loss etc..

I want to use a formula to configure "Field Zones" for certain yard lines. For example, when I create a Field Zone collumn to the data I have and create a formula in the cells within the Field Zone collumn, I select the Yard Line Column data first then I need a formula so that when the yard line is -25, the "Field Zone" cell assoicated with -25 displays the name "Open Field Zone (-20 to +21)."

Hope this is not too confusing. Does anybody have a formuala for this? Thanks.

Does the VLOOKUP table have to be sorted?
No! when you are using an exact match, the VLOOKUP table can be in any order. Best-selling items at the top is actually the best.

Sounds like you need to create a lookup table and then use a lookup formula.

See if this helps:
