    Custom Boolean Values in Microsoft Excel

    I need to display boolean worksheet values not as TRUE or FALSE, but as "Y" and "N" without the use of conditional formatting, macros or functions; a custom format. The custom format: "Y";;"N"; works if the field value is numeric, but not for boolean expressions or values.

    Not possible unless you change the function that returns the TRUE or FALSE like if you have =A2>5 change that to =--(A2>5) then use your custom format "Y";;"N".

    Re: Custom Boolean Values in Microsoft Excel

    I am rightnow working on Boolean additions. Where Why {= SUM (A1: A4 = 1)} gives 0 while {= SUM ((A1: A4 = 1) * 1)} gives the expected result. And when the two meet Laurent exactly at the same time it gives this: The Sum function accepts numerical parameters, boolean or text without flinching, but that does not mean that it takes into account.
