Hi. I hope there's an answer to this problem:
N column is "Start Date",
O column is "End Date",
I have a named range (not sure whether this is necessary) "holidays" in
U3:U9.

I need to find out if any of the "holidays" dates fall within my Start Dates
and my End Dates, which vary from row to row.

thanks for being brilliant.
