Thanks for your response!

Do this give me 15% above or below the number or just equal to or less than?
this what i'm trying to accomplish

I have two sample number that come of two different Laboratory analyzers

C3=allowable BIAS (15%)

c6=1.21 DXA analyzer(sample 1)
d8=1.34 DXB analyzer(sample 1)
e8=%diff
F8= this in where i want know if the %diff is higher or lower than 15% if so say "NO" if Not it is acceptable range and "YES" will be acceptable for comparison

Thanks,
Paul

both because of ABS
C3=allowable BIAS (15%)

c6=1.21 DXA analyzer(sample 1)
d8=1.34 DXB analyzer(sample 1)
e8=%diff
F8= this in where i want know if the %diff is higher or lower than 15% if so say "NO" if Not it is acceptable range and "YES" will be acceptable for comparison

Try in F8:
=IF(ABS(E8<=C3),"Yes","No")

Claus,

Thanks for the help!

Don't seem to be working right, but may be what i have for the percentage of the difference formula

VAL= =IF(C8="","",(((C8-D8)/ABS(D8))))

c8=1.56
d8=1.86
e8=-16%
f8 = yes
b3=12%
