populating a cell with parameters
Enter this in B2 and copy down to B6
=IF(SUM($A$2:$A$6)=872,"is 872","not 872") OR if you mean each of A2 thru A6 = 872 then In B2 enter =IF(A2=872,"is 872","not 872") Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Sat, 7 Oct 2006 17:23:02 -0700, Shannon Bisram Shannon wrote: I need to populate cells with another cell ex. if a2 thru a6 = 872 I need b2 thru b6 = text message Any suggestions on how to do it??? |

populating a cell with parameters
Gord,
If the poster means A2 = 872 and A3 = 872 ...... and A6 = 872, will the following formula work? array formula i.e. CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER Enter into B2 and copy down. =IF(AND($A$2:$A$6=872),"yes","no") Is there a 4th way to interpret the post?

populating a cell with parameters
Hi
If that is what is required, then there is no need for an array formula. =IF(COUNTIF($A$2:$A$6,872)=6,"Yes,"No") -- Regards Roger Govier "Epinn" wrote in message ...

Thanks, Roger. I love it. Probably easy on the system without the array formula. If I keep learning from my teachers, hopefully one day I become smarter. Practice makes perfect.
