Hi
Why does the following equation always return "wrong":
=IF(0.8>D2<1,D2*10,IF(D2>1,D2*100,IF(D2<0.8,D2*1000,"wrong")))
when cell D2 contains the figure 0.9?
Many thanks for your help.

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
I think it's the way you're expressing the first part of the formula that is causing you the problem.

Instead of 0.8>D2<1, replace it with the following...

AND(D2>0.8,D2<1)

(Assuming you mean that D2 should be in between 0.8 and 1)

The condition of the first IF needs rewriting:

=IF(AND(D2>=0.8,D2<=1),D2*10,IF(D2>1,D2*100,IF(D2<0.8,D2*1000,"wrong")))
