I gather that you have a row for January (row 4?) and another for
February and so forth. Where do you put the T or U? If you wish, send me a
file with a sample of what you have. Remove "cobia97" from my email
address.
How do you want the notification to happen? Maybe a message box telling
the name of the person and whether it's the T or the U that has occurred 3
times in the last six months? Or just color the current cell? Is this one
sheet per person?

Sorry,
Here is a spreadsheet I'm working on. For each Unexcused absence I would
enter "U" for the date it happened on, or "T" for tardiness. I would like
to have 3rd occurrence within 6 months to either look different or to have
some kind of alert. Hope this is clear.

"January" is B4

Pasha,

Attachments are disallowed in these groups. It's likely that no one
will
open it. Describe the problem in enough detail, and we'll regail you
with
solutions. Some may work!

I have modified MS's template (attached) to use for employee absence
and
punctuality tracking. My company allows no more than 3 unexcused
absences
during any 6 months period. Same applies to tardiness. I would like
to
have a macro that will track that automatically as I enter "T" or "U"
in
the
spreadsheet. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
