Formula Negation
How do I skip a formula, if left of cell does not equal a colon,
followed by
7 numbers? thanks.
e.g.: date yymmdd
:060120
e.g.:
IF(LEFT(T9,7)= ??(:0000000),then do formula

Hi, sorry for long question, trying to fix at 3 in the morning..
hope I give the right items:
cell with general format, text date? in form of :yymmdd (is proceeded
with a
colon so if format drops would not loose proceeding zero).
(yymmdd needed to quick view/enter dates, sorting / visual scan many
records..)
:yymmdd followed by word text...
:060122 text then written...
$H$7 has 5 for 5 days
=IF(LEFT(T9,1)=":",IF(AND(TODAY()DATE(MID(T9,2,2) +100,MID(T9,4,2),MID(T9,6,2)-$H$7)),"dd"),IF(BE9="T","dn",IF(BF9="T","up",IF(AK 9<"","ck",""))))
if use :060122 get correct dd response
if use :060130 get FALSE response, and rest of equation will not
work.
if use : (no date) followed by text, get VALUE error
If I use the following equation:
=IF(LEFT(T9,1)<":",IF(AND(TODAY()DATE(MID(T9,2,2 )+100,MID(T9,4,2),MID(T9,6,2)-$H$7)),"dd"),IF(BE9="T","dn",IF(BF9="T","up",IF(AK 9<"","ck",""))))
Rest of formula works, TODAY/DATE does not.
My best guesse I need to find an Exclusion that lets skip
IF(AND(TODAY... so
it will not even look at it, items not to familiar with.. like text
search:
if 1st 7 characters not equal :###### (colon 7 numbers, maybe a
space)
I see the front part of my equation, as being incorrect:
=IF(LEFT(T9,1)<":",
Thanks in advance
