Need an excel formula

I need a formula that takes into consideration three cell and returns a value of x. So if A2="Clark College" and B2 Is not blank OR C2 =Graduate then give me a value of x. I'm not sure this can be done but if it can it would make my life a lot easier. Thanks

This Boolean formula:
=(A2="Clark College")*(NOT(ISBLANK(B2))+(C2="Graduate"))

it will return values of 0, 1, or 2 depending upon how many of the conditions are met. This is for A AND (B OR C). [A*(B+C)]. If you mean (A AND B) OR C use the format (A*B)+C.

I calculated percentage on excel using a formula but still it shows #value?. what do i have do to fix this? please help.

Right Click on cell with mouse and select format cells
then select number . If formula was for example percentage of cell a2 calculated from b2 calculated in c2 then in c2 you put =a2/b2
Then you can use percentage in the number format
or you can go =(a2/b2)*100
Also make the cell width more if a problem.

Need formula for Excel

Try using "count if blank"
I am assuming that you need the value to be on sheet 3
If you want the value to be on another sheet, it is more complicated, you will have to "paste special" the value to a different sheet.

Steps to figure out formulas in excel

Hello this is Baris,
If you forget about the numbers and start naming your cells you can figure out your own formulas... Example :)

You buy apples, and you pay $2 per piece

in this case you have 2 numbers to find out how much you will pay.

price per apple
quantity

you have 3 apples you pay 6 dollars very simple right. 2 times 3.

Same thing in excel but this time you will just say price times quantity and excel will do the calculation for you.

Lets name your cells
Type in A1 Price
Type in B1 Quantity
Type in C1 Cost

Now, Column C is your calculation area.
Type in A2 2 (price for apples)
Type in B2 3 (quantity of apples)
Type in C2 =A2*C2 (price times quantity)

Now on, you don't have to calculate anything. You can change you price and quantity, cost will change by itself. Because the value in that cell is now related to other values in A2 and B2. I hope this gives you a starting point.

Excel formula,

the basic idea of an if statement is just that if this then that. Thus a formula could look as simple as =IF(A2=1,25,IF(A2=2,10))

Formula for Calculating the turn around time in excel

dpprash,

I guess you mean the number of weekdays (or working days) excluding Saturdays and Sundays. So start a spreadshhet and put the start date (01/01/2009) in A2 and the end date (31/12/2009?) in B2.

Then paste the formula below into C2:

=B2-A2-2*INT((B2-A2+WEEKDAY(A2,3))/7)-MAX(0,WEEKDAY(B2,3)-4

Copying data from one sheet to another if two fileds match

Nope, sorry, although I am truly an expert at Excel formulas, I do not understand what you are trying to end up with in the final cell. We can compare a specified field with two spreadsheets - use named ranges and index/match lookup formulas. But then where you really lose me is in reading "a generic field" to find a match, and then placing what "data from another field" into what "other sheet" - ? See the confusion?

Best way to compare 2 given parameters would be to use a nested if formula, with index/match combo. Here is a simple Excel example of how such a formula could be structured:

Sample Data (columnar arangement):
A1: Part B1: Code C1: Price D1: Find Part E1: Find Code
A2: x B2: 11 C2: 5.00 D2: y E2: 12
A3: x B3: 12 C3: 6.00 D3: y E3: 11
A4: y B4: 11 C4: 7.00 D4: x E4: 12
A5: y B5: 12 C5: 8.00 D5: x E5: 11

To retrieve the price for part y with code 12 and return the value to cell F2, type the following formula in cell F2:
=INDEX($C$2:$C$5,MATCH(D2,IF($B$2:$B$5=E2,$A$2:$A$5),0))

Press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to enter the formula as an array formula. The formula returns the value 8.00.

To take this one step further, with range names, this example will find one value at a specified location which matches a specific row header value and column header value. Let's say the range is home values (Range=HomeVal), Column A of HomeVal contains street addresses,"row headers" (Range=StAddress), and Row 1 contains dates of the various values that are in the body of the table, "column headers" (Range=Dates). To return the specific value from the range HomeVal to another sheet, where A1=address specified and A2=date specified:
=INDEX(HomeVal,(MATCH($A$1,StAddress,0)),(MATCH($A$2,Dates,0)))

Then make sure to press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER to enter the formula as an array formula - if you only hit enter, these types of formulas will not work properly.

Help with simple excel calculations

Hello.

For cell B1 you can use this (without the quotes) "=A1"

Then for cell A2 and down you don't need a formula, but for B2 you can use this formula. "=(B1+A2)" Then click on that cell and drag the mouse down for as many cells as you want this formula to include and press Control and F keys to fill the formula down the column.

For your second formula, you would type 100 into D1 and in D2 you would use the formula "=D1-E1" (again, no quotes).

Feel free to let me know if you need any more clarification or if I missed something!
