    Excel functions must be enterred before it is calculated

    Cell A1 type =SUM(A5:A12). In cell F12 type =IF(A5>25,"Good Result","Bad"). This shows both the calculation and the outcome.

    I don't think this is possible with just excel formulae, but why don't you put the formula in cell F12 instead? Then you'd have cell f12: =if(sum(a5:a12)>25, "Good Result", "Bad")
