Hello,

I wanted to know if I might be able to solicit for some help on a problem I'm looking to resolve.
Currently I use a Excel 2007 spreadsheet to trace backups in a log. In one cell Column "E", the status of job is listed, ie. Failed, Missed, In Progress. Based on the result in column "E" I would like to auto-fill the information in adjacent cell in column "F" to "Reschedule Backup", "Restart Service".
All help is greatly appreciate and Thank You All for your time.

Sincerely,
Henry B.

if you have not more than 7 clauses

=IF(E1="Failed","Restart Service",if(e1="Missed", "Reschedule Backup", IF(e1="In Progress", "Wait", "")))
-1
