Program find a 5 minute gap
You don't need code.
Use Conditional Formatting with a formula:
=A2-A11/24/60*5 (for cell A2 and below)
and coose a highlight color

Excel 2007 [Square Brackets] used to represent a Cell. They do not exist
in the data of the cell.
I have a column spreadsheet that has 15K records. IN column "G" all
records have a date/tame like [2008-12-03 09:54:08.100]. What I need to
do is search through that column to the end of the file and find any gaps
that may be 5 minutes or longer and highlight that row.
So the above, I need to search 09:54 and see if the next row has 09:59 or
greater. If so highlight the row, if not move down one row and do the
same check. I'm looking to see if the row below is equal to or greater
than a 5 minute difference from the cell above.
Does this make any sense?
I am aware I will most likely need to do this in code. I am using Excel
2007, and am somewhat familiar with modules, but have not worked with them
for a few years. Seems like I need a do until End of file and a for each
loop, but just a little lost on the details. Just got Excel 2007, so it's
new.
I also need to be careful to work with this workbook and this tab as there
will be many in the book.
Thanks for any help
