Excel 2007. Detailed/Complicated IF(AND) or IF(OR) formulas needed.
I've included a spreadsheet that has some manually entered data on a few rows. I've included text boxes on the spreadsheet with details concerning my needs for formulas.
I may be trying to get an "IF" statement to do too much.
Please advise.

Because I'm unfamiliar with VLOOKUP, I'm now unsure if the data shown in Columns E and G are the result of the VLOOKUP function or not.
On my original spreadsheet (although Columns E and G displayed data) I keyed in the data in those columns manually.
To display the multiplier without keying it in, I thought there would be a formula in E2 as follows:
=IF(C2-A2<15,.010,.005)
The dates shown in A2 and C2 will be pulled in by querying a database and automatically populated. Then, the formula in E2 would automatically populate the cell with either .010 or .005. I just couldn't get this same IF statement to also display the phrases I needed in G2.
If the "Paper Sent" date were changed in C2 to 05/20/2016, none of the other fields change. I would expect C2 multiplier to change to .005, but it doesn't.

To make an attempt at further explanation, when this spreadsheet is first opened via querying a database, Columns E and G would be blank.
They would only populate based on the formula placed in Column E as described above.

In an attempt at clarification, I've attached another spreadsheet with more notes.
Don't know if this makes it harder or easier.

Wrong attachment. New one is: Payout_to_Pool_3

I can't seem to add the new spreadsheet as an attachment. I'll open a different ticket.

I'm not familiar with VLOOKUP. I can see on Sheet 3 the information posted there, but I don't know how you've used the "vlookup formula with if function". Can't find the formulas - are they hidden?
Can you explain?
Everything works!
