The formula is fine with the cell reference Column HI Row 2..
and returns YES if HI2 is between 401 and 402 (eg: 401.1) =IF(AND(HI2401,HI2402),"YES","NO") If this post helps click Yes --------------- Jacob Skaria "Gee" wrote: Why has this worked for about 3 hours and then suddenly stopped??

More likely, the value in H12 is not what it appears to be. For example, if the value is 401.00001, it might be displayed as 401, so you might expect "NO".

It's just so weird.
It just stops working out of the blue. I guess it's just an Excel 07 thing?

I thought it might be something like that. I changed the columns to no
decimal places, but since it was getting data from an external database it might have caused the problem. It's working right now...if it stops I'll be back! Thank you SO much for the help!

It stopped working again...here's my formula:

I went back through the suggestions and totally missed extending to 13
decimal places..it looks like that might just work! The rounding didn't, but that out to 13 places looks like it will. Thank you SO much for your patience and brain.

You are talking about H12, but the OP was rerferring to HI2.
