=SUM(G9:G18)/5 >= (SUM(G8:G17)/5+SUM(G7:G16)/5+SUM(G6:G15)/5)*0.79

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
 

Excel Facts

Create a chart in one keystroke
Select the data and press Alt+F1 to insert a default chart. You can change the default chart to any chart type
It works just fine if I copy that into excel.

  • Is your Excel set to English? A different language can result in a #NAME error.
  • Does your installation of Windows use decimal points, or decimal commas? You might have to enter 0,79 instead.
  • Does your source data contain errors? #DIV/0 and #NAME can't be summed.

What type of error are you receiving, exactly?

I just pasted the formula into a cell in a blank spreadsheet and it worked for me as well, returning the value TRUE. My problem is I click on Fx (functions) and select the IF function and the dialog box pops up asking for the logical_test. In that box I enter the formula and it returns an "invalid" response.

I was able to fix this error by typing the entire IF function directly into the excel cell rather than using the function box to guide me.
