There is always something new to learn here. I didn't know that there is something called 'Ifs' function and I always used the nested if. Now I can use this new formula

One question which is not related to IF function. I have a big database comprising several columns and rows. From this I can find the highest value using MAX function. But how can I find out the cell address of that cell containing the highest value. Please help.

[@chandoo_]

You can then use XMATCH or MATCH to find the row number of the highest value. If you use ADDRESS function, you can generate the address of the cell.

[@ShivaSingh-vs4yv]

Why not use text function + vlookup to find who will drive batmobile 🤷‍♂ Text function to convert date into text then find it in the table using vlookup. Ps :- love you learning a lot from your channel since last 1 year. 😍

[@chandoo_]

Great suggestion! You can use that too. As I wanted to showcase IF, IFS & CHOOSE, I went with the CHOOSE example first, but the bonus trick shows a better way of doing it too. PS: Thanks for learning and becoming awesome 😎

[@alializadeh8195]

Thanx

[@iqbalsingh6311]

Instead of Choose, text function with Xlookup is better alternative

[@mehboob876]

I have an excel list of approximately 1 million part numbers. I need an excel pro to change part numbers of any duplicates on the list. For example if there are duplicate part numbers: 1234 1234 1234 I need this changed by adding "A" "B" etc for example : 1234 - A 1234 - B 1234 - C etc 1234 - AA 1234 - AB etc. The new part number should be listed on the next column. How to do...

[@oliverscheurich9202]

=CONCATENATE(A1,"-",VLOOKUP(COUNTIF($A$1:A1,A1),$F$1:$G$600,2,FALSE)) Enter this formula in cell B1 and copy down. The part numbers are in column A. =SUBSTITUTE(ADDRESS(1,F1,4),"1","") Enter this formula in cell G1 and copy down to G600. In range F1:F600 are numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on.

[@Green__one]

The one I keep finding myself needing is a way to solve the following: if(_BIG_LONG_FORMULA_,_BIG_LONG_FORMULA_,_SOMETHING_ELSE_) When the big long formula is the same in both places, what I really want is not to have the big long formula typed out twice because it makes the whole thing almost unreadable (I'm talking formulas with multiple nested Ifs and lookups). I feel like there has to be a better way, I just can't seem to find it.

[@chandoo_]

You can use LET(). For example =LET(x, BIG_LONG_FORMULA, IF(x, x, something_else)) Also, there are some clever ways to avoid IF. I suggest reading www.excelhero.com/blog/2010/01/i-heart-if.html

[@Green__one]

@@chandoo_ I think "LET" may be exactly what I'm looking for, thanks! I'll give you an example of the type of thing I'm trying to model, I have a spreadsheet for keeping track of payroll, but the union contract is insanely complex for the rules to figure it all out, for example, there are shift premiums for working between 1500 and 2300, a higher premium for between 2300 and 0700, and another premium that stacks on top of those if it's between 1500 on a friday and 0700 on a Monday. Additionally all those premiums only apply if more than 2 consecutive hours are worked in the appropriate timeframe, but if more than half of a shift is in a specific timeframe, all of the shift is counted at that rate, unless a higher rate is hit. But if the employee is in overtime all premiums kick in immediately instead of only if more than 2 hours are worked. And let's not even get started on stat-holidays, and super-stat-holidays! You can imagine that the formula ends up being super complex to capture all of that!

[@chandoo_]

I would probably break the formula to multiple cells and use assumption / input cells so that the final rate calc is a shorter formula.

[@Green__one]

@@chandoo_ That's what I do, but even so, there's such a dependency on each other cell that it can be hard. Basically I calculate total hours, overtime hours, evening hours, night hours, and weekend hours, then total dollar value.
