From: Alicia-Paris on 12 May 2010 07:07 COLUMN E has a range from 1-5, COLUMN F I want to show a number depending on COLUMN E. E.g. if e1=1 then f1=12, if e2=4 then f1=57. I want the F COLUMN to depend on the E COLUMN. But I am not sure how to do this. The IF function doesnt work because I want there to be 5 conditions. Basically.... 1= one number 2= a different number 3= a diff number and so on; and with this, depending on which number gets put in cell E (1-5), i want F to reflect the true number. Please help guys as this is driving me bonkers!
From: Mike H on 12 May 2010 07:13 Hi, This isn't; to me, very clear but maybe this =CHOOSE(E1,12,57,67,77,87) Now if e1 is 1 the formula returns 12, If e1=2 it returns 57 etc -- Mike When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the question.

From: Alicia-Paris on 12 May 2010 07:23 It didnt work. Basically: 1=36, 2=72, 3=108, 4=132, 5=165. COLUMN E comes from a different worksheet via macros, so i want COLUMN F to then show the true value between 1-5 to the numbers shown above. i.e. e3= 4............... therefore i want f3= 132 "Mike H" wrote: > Hi, > > This isn't; to me, very clear but maybe this > > =CHOOSE(E1,12,57,67,77,87) > > Now if e1 is 1 the formula returns 12, If e1=2 it returns 57 etc > -- > Mike > > When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that > introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the > question. > > > "Alicia-Paris" wrote: > > > COLUMN E has a range from 1-5, COLUMN F I want to show a number depending on > > COLUMN E.

From: Jacob Skaria on 12 May 2010 07:25 Try =IF(E1,CHOOSE(E1,12,57,67,77,87),"") -- Jacob (MVP - Excel) "Alicia-Paris" wrote: > COLUMN E has a range from 1-5, COLUMN F I want to show a number depending on > COLUMN E.

Also, i forgot to add.... the COLUMN E cells already have something in them.. they are hyperlinked to another workbook. i.e. the number in them is from another sheet. i have just put in the cell : =(cell from other workbook) "Alicia-Paris" wrote: > COLUMN E has a range from 1-5, COLUMN F I want to show a number depending on > COLUMN E.
