Why does:
=LOOKUP(1.00001,--{"1";"1:"})
return a value of 0.0417 ??
Thanks,
FLKULCHAR
The double minus transforms the string "1:" to a value.
"1:" is seen as short for "01:00:00" which is a time value which is
1/24 or 0.041466666...
Format the output as time and you will see that it displays as
01:00:00
Hope this helps / Lars-Åke
Oops. 1/24 or 0.04166666... it should be.
