Hi,
I am trying to find a formula that if the date in cell A4 is within a year of the date in cell f1, it will do one formula, if it is between 1 and 2 years it will do another. Any input will be greatly appreciated.
 

Excel Facts

Ambidextrous Undo
Undo last command with Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace. If you use the Undo icon in the QAT, open the drop-down arrow to undo up to 100 steps.
Hey, try this formula:
=IF(ABS(F1-A4)<=365,"Formula1","Formula2")
Where Formula1 and Formula2 are replaced by your designated formulae.

=IF(ABS(F1-A4)<=365,"Formula1","Formula2")
Just note that will do Formula2 for any date greater than one year. If they truly want Formula2 only if it is between 1 and 2 years, you will need to nest another level of IF in there.
if it is between 1 and 2 years it will do another.
Something like:
Code:
[COLOR=#333333]=IF(ABS(F1-A4)<=365,"Formula1",IF(ABS(F1-A4)<=730,"Formula2",""))[/COLOR]

You're right Joe, I only omitted nesting the function as there was no criteria in the original posting about a 3rd scenario, but of course then like you say, nesting another layer would be required!
I appreciate the pointer though.
