help with formula
Hi there, Thanks for helping. I have a set of data below that I would like excel to locate and highlight the numbers that are within a band, say of 0.30. Can this be done?
A 22.1895 22.3079 22.4237 22.537 22.6476 22.7557 22.8611 22.9638 23.0638 23.1611 23.2556 23.3474 23.4364 23.5226 23.606 23.6866 23.7643 23.839 23.9109 23.9797 24.0456 24.1085 24.1684 24.2252 24.2789 24.3295 24.3771 24.4214 24.4627 I suppose somehow excel would have to find the same whole numbers, average them and apply the average as the middle number and find numbers that are within 0.15 on each side of the middle number. Is this possible? |

Hi Martindelica,
Not sure whether I understand the question (or anybody else), but if you put this in B1 = -A1+A2 they are all within .30 or .15 of each other, can you give some more information oldchippy

Also not sure if I understand the question exactly, but I am pretty sure that Conditional Formatting can do the job you want.
If you select the cells with the values in, then select "Formats / Conditional Formatting" from the menu bar, you can put formulas into the conditions windows. So, if you want to find all values that are within, say 0.3 of the mean, your conditions may look something like this, where the ranges are the cells with the values that you want checked: "Cell Value Is Between =AVERAGE($A$1:$A$8)-0.15 and =AVERAGE($A$1:$A$8)+0.15". Then press the Format button, select, say, the Patterns tab, select a colour, and all cells in the highlighted range with a value that is within 0.3 of the average will be filled in the selected colour. |
