Posted: Sun Jul 01, 2012 9:03 am Post subject: IF THEN OR |
|
|
I am trying to come up with a function that will evaluate a particular cell and return a THEN result OR another result.
Here is a sample of the data
KZ5MS
SM4GFL
K4AA
so I would like to count the number of characters for each line and THEN place the following information in a cell such as <call:6> for KZ4MS OR <call:7> for SM4GFL OR <call:4> for K4AA
I have 4 thousand calls to sort through of various lenghts.
Can someone help?
Thanks
Jim Johnson |

Thanks for the help.
Almost got it. I need to include the < and > symbols in the label as well. I got the first one to show but having difficulty with the closing symbol.
right now it is showing
<CALL:6
here's is what I have
="<CALL:"&LEN(B5)
so you have any suggestion here.
Thanks for the help again!
Jim
BTW I checked your Dad's Call in my log of about 40,000 contacts over the last 20 years. Unfortunately I did have a contact with him in that time. Ham Radio is still a fascinating hobby. I got licensed in 1978 and have had a great time DXing, Contesting and just rag chewing--still very active. |
