I had another play with this LO logic buster this morning.
Whilst in Lotus 123 would only need @IF(A1>10,"True","False")
the way LO works the formula needs to be:-( placed in say B1 looking at
cell A1) to cater for LO's rationale and possibly to cover prior versions.
=IF(A1="","",IF(A1>N,"",IF(A1>10,"True","False")))
N has to max out above any number in your list (eg 10000000) as it
would appear that any Letter is seen by LO as greater than the highest
possible number, to block this and to prevent the table seeing Letters
as Numbers you need N. With N in place, if you type in a letter into
cell A1, then B1 remains blank and does not to give a false positive
(or negative).

Got it
Regina is correct, so:-
=IF(A1>50,"False",IF(A1>10,"True","False"))
Where 50 (or 1000) is higher than any number in your table

The strange thing is is that if you reverse the logic such as
=IF(A1<11 and then reverse the True & False
You get the same results table and but with A still being TRUE
I am convinced this is a bug, which stops you writing an IF within
an IF such as =IF(A1<11,"False",IF(A1>10,"True","False")) which
should work - but it doesn't.

Hi all, this is a little example to show what is going on.
In A column I have a numeric list from 1 to 21, in the middle I have a
letter, lets put A.
If a run this function in the next column =IF(A1>10), this function
evaluate the letter A like TRUE, why?
1 FALSE
2 FALSE
3 FALSE
4 FALSE
5 FALSE
6 FALSE
7 FALSE
8 FALSE
9 FALSE
10 FALSE
11 TRUE
A TRUE
13 TRUE
14 TRUE
15 TRUE
16 TRUE
17 TRUE
18 TRUE
19 TRUE
20 TRUE
21 TRUE
Thanks a lot in advance
