Help using expressions in report builder for MassHunter Qual 10

Hi All, 

 

I'm trying to get the following expression to work in a Qual 10 report (in excel format as that's about the extent of my coding knowledge):

 

=IF(Area<DB_Notes,"Fail","Pass") to flag compounds which are less than a defined minimum peak area (which we record in the PCDL notes section).

 

Can anyone help out with the format the expression needs to be in? I can't find any explanation or instruction manual.

 

Cheers

    I think I've figured out how to refer to the numbers I need but it still isn't working, possibly because the number from PCDL is beingpulled in as text instead of a number. Any expert users who could advise on how to make the below expression work?

     

    "FAIL" if BoundItems["ISTD Compound"].Area < BoundItems["ISTD Compound"].DB_Notes else "PASS"
