if function

[Richard]

I want to use a function probably the if function to check if say from cell
A1 to E1 to see if the value is less than .5 or no data, if true than give
cell F1 a value of 1. How do I write this function?

Hi Richard

Do you want to test if every cell in A1:E1 is less than .5 or not have data

Try this in F1

=IF(MAX(A1:E1)<0.5,1,"")

 

[Tom Ogilvy]

=if(A1<.5,1,"")

if you are looking for all values to be less than .5 or blank

=if(sum(countif(A1:E1,{"<.5",""}))=5,1,"")
