Default And/Or Results - Ron/Excelent

In case you do not see the latest reply.

Thanks all but I stil receive incorrect results while testing of both types
of formulas- all are numbers and not text, array is set with braces.
Do you see anything wrong? Ron's results in the wrong answer if the numbers
are moved around ( see bottom example ).
Testing of the formulas by rearranging the numbers proved incorrect on both
formulas.
The oddest is that as you change numbers in the four number set, the result
will remain the same, give you an incorrect result, or change with only one
number being added that is in the entire six set.

It seems to work on the intial test but as you are changing the four set,
things start happening that result in an incorrect result.

(Excelent formula) Gave a 1 when the four set was 4,5,6,7 but remained a 1 when the new set came in as 1,2,7,4 and none of the six contain the number 1. This is for 2 of 6.


g h i j k l m n o p q

60 1 2 7 4 4 5 6 7 8 2 1

q60 content - {=IF(OR(G60=K60:P60,H60=K60:P60),1,0)}


(Ron's formula) Gave a TRUE at first with 7,4,2,1 but as the numbers came in rearranged in the four set, it went to false although the numbers do exist. This is for 4 of 6.


g h i j k l m n o p q

59 1 2 4 7 7 4 2 1 8 2 FALSE

q59 content - {=AND(OR(G59=K59:N59),OR(H59=K59:N59),OR(I59=K59:N 59),OR(J59=K59:N59))}


As said before, braces exist, numbers are numbers. Correct results at first
but when new numbers or numbers are rearranged in the 4 set, results are
incorrect.
