Help with IF function

[rmaclagan]

I need cell V3 to populate with a percentage that corresponds with a range of cells (AC7:AF9 shown below) based on a couple of variables (their age, whether they are male or female). basically it should be like this...

Cell V3 (A Soldiers Allowed BF%) will automatically populate from a range (AC7:AF9) based on cell E3 (whether they are M (Male) of F (Female)) and their age (which auto populates based on their date of birth) in cell F3. But if cell D3 (date of birth) is blank then it returns blank.

The Range looks like this:

AB7-9 AC7-9 AD7-9 AE7-9 AF7-9
AGE GROUP 17-20 21-27 28-39 40+
MALE BF% 20% 22% 24% 26%
FEMALE BF% 30% 32% 34% 36%



Hopefully this is enough info. If not let me know and i will get it for you as soon as i can.

You could try something like

=IF(D3="","",CHOOSE(IF(E3="M",1,2),LOOKUP(F3,{17,21,28,40},{0.2,0.22,0.24,0.26}),LOOKUP(F3,{17,21,28,40},{0.3,0.32,0.34,0.36})))

you'd have to format V3 as a percentage
