If Function and Dates
I am trying to create a function in a spreadsheet but not sure how to go
about it. I have a start date in A1 and and end date in B1. If column c1 falls between those dates, I want to have the cell in D1 enter the value of 1. If c2 does not fall between those dates, then I want it to enter the value of 0. Can this be done? -- Laura |

With
A1: (a start date) B1: (an end date) C1: (a date) This formula returns 1 if C1 is between A1 and B1, inclusive: D1: =--(MEDIAN(A1:C1)=C1) Is that something you can work with? Post back if you have more questions. -------------------------- Regards, Ron Microsoft MVP (Excel) (XL2003, Win XP) "Laura Logan" wrote in message ...

Sorry, question should read:

Thanks Ron. That did the trick.

Perhaps this is easier to understand rather than that obfuscated formula.

How about this:

Apply the KISS principle, just keep it simple

You have really no understanding of simple things. The more obfuscated it
is, the better for the learner. I can give you obfuscated things that would blow your socks off. But to whose benefit? Tyro "Pete_UK" wrote in message ...

Well, the OP here thanked Ron for his formula, so presumably she
understood it in the end. Sometimes it is better to stretch knowledge in order for the learner to gain a better understanding of the solution.

I disagree entirely. The OP needs to learn the simple things, complicated
(obfuscation) will come with time. After 44 years of computer programming, I truly believe in keeping it simple. I can obfuscate to the point that most programmers will say what is this that works?
