Using Multiple Criteria to filter for multiple users

Earlier in the week someone was kind enough to provide me with the following
code that allowed me to search for different numbers in a column and provide
me with a answer of True or False.

While that was extreme helpful, I was wondering if it is possible to search
and depending on the values, return a person's name as shown below.

=OR(D2=27028,D2=27076,D2=27286) Tim's
=OR(D2=27310,D2=27312) Bobby's
=OR(D2=27670,D2=28088,D2=28094) Alex
=OR(D2=28291,D2=28386,D2=28488,D2=28630) Sally's

Thank you for your assistance. Your help is Greatly Appreciated!!

Put each OR function inside a IF function, like so:

=IF(OR(D2=27028,D2=27076,D2=27286),"Tim's","")
=IF(OR(D2=27310,D2=27312),"Bobby's","")
....etc.


Of note, guessing on how's your setting up your formulas, you might want to
look at the LOOKUP and VLOOKUP functions. I'm thinking you could set up a
table somewhere that lists the numbers you are checking, correlated with
names. Might save you some time. But again, just speculating based on these
few formulas.

In the last few minutes I have found that the original formula does not
always return a correct answer. Is there something else that will return more
consistant results? As to the the LOOKUP and VLOOKUP functions, could the
table reside on the hidden "personal.xls" workbook that I save my macros on?

Thank you!

We would have to know more about what errors you are seeing to diagnose why
you are not getting consistent results, I'm afraid.

And yes, you could put the table on a hidden workbook, as long as you
properly reference it in the formula (easiest way is when you setup formula,
physically highlight the cells in your Personal.xls so XL creates a proper
link.

There are no errors. Formula returns False event though the value in the cell
equals one of the values in formula. I have tried to reformat the cell to
text or number to see if that is the issue, but the answer is still False.

Thank you!

If the value is already entered, I'm afraid you can't simply change the
format to get it to switch. (I think you're on right track, numbers are
stores as text somehow). Go ahead and set the format of the cells to number.
In a spare cell somewhere, input 1. Copy this cell. Now, select your other
cells with numbers in them, right-click, paste special, and select multiply.
This will convert any numbers stored as text into actual numbers.
