Como eu simplifico esta declaração if apenas para adicionar 1 toda vez (e possivelmente ir sem limite)?

"Not Ability")))

    

Answer 1

Esta é a versão simplificada da fórmula que você forneceu na pergunta:

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(C24,'Ability Base'!A$2:B$50,2,FALSE)),
    "Not Ability",
    VLOOKUP(C24,'Ability Base'!A$2:B$50,2,FALSE)
)

Talvez você possa dizer sua exigência em palavras, se o texto acima não for adequado.
