Bob Hi,

Thank you for the three formulas, which do exactly what I require.

I will now be able to replace some very long and unwieldly formulas and
procedures with thoose you have given me, which will reduce the size, and
simplfy my spreedsheets.

Thanks once again

Is this what you mean?

Bob Thanks,

Column A Column B Column C Formular Result
Smith Formula Brown
Jones Formula Davis ***
Wilson Formula Jones
Harris Formula Wilson ***
York Formula
Carlton Formula
Brown Formula ***

I am trying to put a symbol in column B if the name appears in column C.
Column A will be say 1,000 lines but column only 20 or so.

Hope this explains better

Thanks Joco (London)

Not sure I understand. All ranges must be similar sized, you can't have a
10
row range for one test and a 25 row range for another.

Bob Hi and thanks for your prompt responce, both forumals work ok

I have tried to amend the SUMPRODUCT formular for something else
without
success

I am trying to put a symbol in a collumn where a cell E14 equals names
in
P17:P24, all fields are text names.

If you could assist me with this it would be appreciated

Thanks Joco (London)

Hi,
Can you please tell me how to put a symbol on a line, if a time is
before
or
after a specified time. I have tried the following which is a valid
formula,
but does not give me the correct answer.

=IF(AND("06:00:00"<C1575,C1575"18:00:00"),5,3) (the relevant
field
is
formatted to monotype sorts to give either a tick or a cross)

I am also trying to produce an IF formula that looks at a block of
cells,
I
have tried the following, which only works for the first cell in the
block

=SUMIF(E10:E1600,E1609:E1615,(K10:K1600))

The E1609:E1615 contains text names

Any help would be really appreciated, thanks
