i have repeating customers that book appointments in advance. this
appointment list winds up in an excel sheet. i want to find future
appointments that have the same client ID as an appointment today (to find
out how many of my current customers are booked for future visits).

neil

seems like everybody is using either a conditional format or some other
means.

i'm looking for something that looks up TODAY as a date, then looks over at
a customer ID, and THEN looks at FUTURE bookings for a one or more bookings
by that SAME customer, finally tallying how many of TODAY's customers have
FUTURE bookings. with approximately 100 appointments a day, it's hard to
track this manually. i'll keep looking for an answer in this thread, and
if any programmers want more specific info, i would be happy to pay for help.


would it help if i imported the datafile into access? then is there a
query or something? i'm pretty amateur at this, but not computer stupid.

If I understand what you're looking for, does this work for you?

Labels in A1 to G1.
Data in A2 to G100.
Enter today's date in H1 - <Ctrl <;
Enter this formula in H2, and drag down to copy as needed, or double click
on the "fill handle" of H2, to copy the formula down column H as far as
there is data in Column G:

=SUMPRODUCT((TEXT(B2,"mm/dd/yy")=TEXT($H$1,"mm/dd/yy"))*(TEXT($B$2:$B$100,"m
m/dd/yy")TEXT($H$1,"mm/dd/yy"))*($G$2:$G$100=G2))

You can of course, enter any date you wish in H1, to perhaps retrieve other
information.

ragdyer,

i modified your formula (eliminating the TEXT functions as i had imported
the .txt file into excel and it assigned numeric values for dates), and WOW
that got me over a big hurdle.

for the next folks who read this, i added the names of service providers
across from I1, J1, K1, etc. and modified ragdyer's formula to incorporate
that reference:

=SUMPRODUCT(($B2=$H$1)*($B$2:$B$31$H$1)*($D$2:$D$ 31=I$1)*($G$2:$G$31=$G2))

now, i get a numeric result that tells me "for every person who came in
today, how many future appointments are in the book, and who are they
scheduled to see"

this totally rocks.
