Hi all,

Longtime reader, first-time poster...having a struggle day with the brain and some trouble with a nested if shooting back the INCORRECT ARGUMENT error.

Trying to code a 5-Part Progress Bar column with ranges based on a Status % column for a Project Tracker.

Here is what I have:

=IF([Status %]88 = 0, "Empty", IF([Status %]88 < 0.25, "Quarter", IF([Status %]88 = 0.25, "Quarter", IF([Status %]88 < 0.35, "Quarter", IF([Status %]88 < 0.5, "Half", IF([Status %]88, <0.65, "Half", IF([Status %]88 < 0.75, "Three Quarter", IF([Status %]88 < 1, "Three Quarter", IF([Status %]88 = 1, "Full")))))))))

Any help is greatly appreciated!!

@Pamela Wagner<\/a> There's nothing in core Smartsheet. <\/p>

If you have a unique ID (like ticket number) that is in both sheets, you could use DataMesh if you have access to that or cross sheet formulas to pull in the data you want based on the matching unique ID.<\/p>

Otherwise, you'd have to use an Add-on. If you are interested in hearing about an add-on that can do this, send me a message at https:\/\/smartsheetguru.com\/contact<\/a><\/p>"}]}},"status":{"statusID":3,"name":"Accepted","state":"closed","recordType":"discussion","recordSubType":"question"},"bookmarked":false,"unread":false,"category":{"categoryID":322,"name":"Formulas and Functions","url":"https:\/\/community.smartsheet.com\/categories\/formulas-and-functions","allowedDiscussionTypes":[]},"reactions":[{"tagID":3,"urlcode":"Promote","name":"Promote","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":5,"count":0},{"tagID":5,"urlcode":"Insightful","name":"Insightful","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":11,"urlcode":"Up","name":"Vote Up","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0},{"tagID":13,"urlcode":"Awesome","name":"Awesome","class":"Positive","hasReacted":false,"reactionValue":1,"count":0}],"tags":[]},{"discussionID":106845,"type":"question","name":"Count function","excerpt":"Hi I need help with a formula.
