![]() I am trying to find the min/max number in an x number of adjacent cells. For instance in the following data set: 7/15/2005 10 7/16/2005 9 7/17/2005 8 7/18/2005 8 7/19/2005 7 Less than any of the 4 days before/after 7/20/2005 9 7/21/2005 10 7/22/2005 11 7/23/2005 15 7/24/2005 9 Less than any of the 1 days before/after 7/25/2005 10 7/26/2005 8 7/27/2005 10 7/28/2005 6 7/29/2005 2 Less than any of the 3 days before/after 7/30/2005 3 7/31/2005 4 8/1/2005 5 If I were looking for 2 day mins, it would return the dates 7/29/2005, 7/19/2005. It is important that the value is the lowest number at least x days before and after, though it could be more. In the example above, the value in 7/19/2005 is smaller than any number 4 days before and after. Eventually, I would also like this function to only return the most recent occurance. I would also like to have "x" be a reference, so I can change it on the fly. It will also be necessary for me to limit the search to a date range, but I may be able to work these details out later. A cell formula (or two) would work best for me, because it may need to be minipulated a bit before I get it exactly right for my situation. If it can only be done with VBA let me know. If you can help me with any or all of this I would appreciate it. Either way, I (we?) need to figure this out.
