Hi,

Is there any functionality within excel where an amount of hours (col a )
can be spread uniformally between two dates (col b and c) with the results
tabled so i am able to create a load or capacity graph.

Thanks in advance for any assistance in any form.

Steve

You might have columns to the right from D to BZ, one per date, and you want
to fill in the number of hours for the job on this row on the date for this
column (assumed in row 1).

A formula like this (in D2 and copied to the remaining cells) should do it

=A2/(COUNTIF($D$1:$BZ$1,"="&B2)-COUNTIF($D$1:$BZ$1,""&C2))
