Using XL 2003


Goal: Find those employees charging gas more than once a day.

Fields - Date EmpID Amount

Output: Filtered XL sheet and/or
a printed list of only those employees
with more than one gas purchase in a single day

-OR-

Conditional Formating (cell Color) for those meeting
the above criteria

I am not sure of the smartest approach to solve quickly.
or even the formulas.

There are 54,000 purchases by 6500 employees

Thanks Dennis

How about a pivot table (see Help and come back with questions) with date in
left column and EmplID on top row with Amt COUNTED (Not summed) in the data
area?
best wishes

Bernie,

Great idea. I switched the data so that I will not run out of columns.

I used conditional formatting to highlight those intersections of employee
and a value = 1.

How can I show just those employees with a value of 2 or more in any one of
62 days?
