Excel Formula help needed

Hi everyone,

I am trying to create a formula to help me increase/decrease insulin levels to help treat my diabetes.

Hopefully this makes sense. I need a formula to do the below:

 

If a number in cell e.g. A1 is between -2.0 and +2.0 then the cell to state "No Change"

If the number in cell A1 is lower than -2.0 but not lower than -4.0 (e.g. -3.5), then the cell should state "-0.1"

If the number in cell A1 is lower than -4.0 but not lower than -6.0 (e.g. 5.2), then the cell should state "-0.2"

If the number in cell A1 is lower than -6.0 the cell should state "Review!"

 

If the number in cell A1 is higher than 2.0 but not higher than 4.0 then the cell should state "+0.1"

If the number in cell A1 is higher than 4.0 but not higher than 6.0 then the cell should state "+0.2"

If the number in cell A1 is higher than 6.0 the cell should state "Review!"

 

I have tried the following (with H35 being the cell with the number in it) but when I try to add more to it, it says I've too many formulas.

 

=IF(H35>2,"+.1",IF(H35<-2,"-0.1",IF(H35<2,"No Change",IF(H35>-2,"No Change",IF(H35>4,"+.2")))))

 

Help!!!

    Scott,

     

    What you need is something like this:

     

    =IF(AND(A1>=-2,A1<=2),"No Change",
  IF(AND(A1<-2,A1>=-4),"-0.1",
  IF(AND(A1<-4,A1>=-6),"-0.2",
  IF(AND(A1>2,A1<=4),"+0.1",
  IF(AND(A1>4,A1<=6),"+0.2",
  IF(OR(A1>6,A1<-6),"Review"))))))

      =IF(AND(H35>=-1.9,H35<=1.9),"No Change",IF(AND(H35<=-2,H35>=-3.9),"-0.1",IF(AND(H35<=-4,H35>=-5.9),"-0.2",IF(AND(H35<=-6,H35>=-7.9),"-0.3",IF(AND(H35<=3.9,H35>=2),"+0.1",IF(AND(H35<=5.9,H35>=4),"+0.2",IF(AND(H35<=7.9,H35>=6),"+0.3",IF(OR(H35<=-7.9,H35>=8),"Review!"))))))))

       

      I've built upon the formula and am now trying to have it that if cell H35 states "0.0", that the cell will state "No Change"

       

      any ideas?

        This formula already supports it!

        If the cell's value is 0 , the formula will returns "No Change"!

        But this in case of the cell's data type is numeric not text!
