Good Morning !!

I am trying to analyze my BMI data and I have created formula, but don't understand where I am going wrong and need HELP.


=IF(C2>39,”Obesityclass III”,IF(C>.34.4,"Obesityclass II”,IF(C2>24.9,”Overweight”,IF(C2>18.4,”Normal”,IF(C2<18.5,”Underweight”)))))</pre>
 

Excel Facts

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
Are you getting an error or not getting the expected result? Try removing the extra period in your second IF statement:

C>.34.4

You also don't need your last IF statement. It can be:

=IF(C2>39,”Obesityclass III”,IF(C>.34.4,"Obesityclass II”,IF(C2>24.9,”Overweight”,IF(C2>18.4,”Normal”,”Underweight”))))

Thanks bbott and Arithos.

bbott: Thanks a lot. I removed dot before 34.4 and tried your formula also, but still getting "error" ...don't have clue what is wrong with the formula. Do you have more suggestions with this.

In addition to the extra period, you didn't specify the cell in the second IF statement. Should be C2 instead of C, so
<bdo dir="ltr">=IF(C2>39,"Obesityclass III",IF(C2>34.4,"Obesityclass II",IF(C2>24.9,"Overweight",IF(C2>18.4,"Normal","Underweight"))))</bdo>
