Multiple IF function
Hi,
I'm trying to create a Life Insurance Calculator within Excel. I've already done a VLOOKUP to get the Relevant Premium Rate, but now I need to be able to reference back to them given the option. The four options available a 1. Male Non-Smoker 2. Male Smoker 3. Female Non-Smoker 4. Female Smoker For example: 1. If Male AND a Non-Smoker, I want to refer to Cell A1 2. If Male AND a Smoker, I want to refer to Cell A2 3. If Female AND a Non-Smoker, I want to refer to Cell A3 4. If Female AND a Smoker, I want to refer to Cell A4 Any help is much appreciated. Thanks |

If desired, send your file to my address below. I will only look if:
1. You send a copy of this message on an inserted sheet 2. You give me the newsgroup and the subject line 3. You send a clear explanation of what you want 4. You send before/after examples and expected results. -- Don Guillett Microsoft MVP Excel SalesAid Software "Anthony" wrote in message ...

Thanks guys,
I've spent the last few hours working on this and I figured it out! My formula as follows: =IF($B$3="Male", IF($B$4="Non-Smoker", 'Premium Rate Table'!L4, 'Premium Rate Table'!L5), IF($B$3="Female", IF($B$4="Non-Smoker",'Premium Rate Table'!L6,'Premium Rate Table'!L7))) B3 = Drop down list where you can choose "Male" or "Female" B4 = Drop down lise where you can choose "Non-Smoker" or "Smoker" 'Premium Rate Table' = Separate Worksheet with the Premium Rate Tables. L4 = Male Non-Smoker Premium Rate L5 = Male Smoker Premium Rate L6 = Female Non-Smoker Premium Rate L7 = Female Smoker Premium Rate The L# fields already have a VLOOKUP formula to obtain the correct Premium Rate when the relevant Age is entered. Thanks for your responses anyway. Anthony |

You didn't exactly help us to help you did you? Your original post gave
nothing that suggested that the option was split over two cells. You can simplify your formula to =IF($B$3="Male",IF($B$4="Non-Smoker",'Premium Rate Table'!L4,'Premium Rate Table'!L5), IF($B$4="Non-Smoker",'Premium Rate Table'!L6,'Premium Rate Table'!L7)) -- HTH Bob "Anthony" wrote in message news Thanks guys, I've spent the last few hours working on this and I figured it out!
