If they are days then how are you going to represent a full year anyway?

The same formula will work for days but you simply run out of room.

Ken,
There are weeks days across the top, it could be weeks, but how can I say a
person has been employed for that week?

PR - What is the significance of the 1,2,3,4,5.......31 across the top? Are
those days, and if so how far out do they go, because you obviously cannot
chart a full year that way as you only have 256 columns.

Assuming they are weeks then I would suggest perhaps putting real dates in
there as opposed to those week numbers, and further assuming that you do
this, I'll assume that those dates are in say E1:BF1, your names/IDs are in
say B2:B200, your start dates are in C2:C200 and finish dates in D2:D200.

Now in cell E2 put the following formula and copy down and across to the
whole range E2:BF200

=IF(AND(E$1=$C2,E$1<=$D2),1,"")

Done.

Obviously for those dates you can just put the first day of your year in E1
and then in F1 put =E1+7 and copy across.

If you prefer chart type data then format all the cells with a white font and
then use conditional formatting to colour the pattern of any cell that
contains a 1. You will still be able to do the maths at the bottom of the
sheet to get the total numbers on a weekly basis.

I am looking for a way to create a chart over a year period by each week, to
let me now how many people where in my organisation over a year period, The
problem I have is that I only have a start and end date. i.e.

p4 10/01/04 - 25/01/04
p5 12/01/04 - 19/01/04
