Using Excel 2003 on XP.
I have a spreadsheet which contains over 5000 rows of data about employees and their leave.
Column A contains the employee's identification number. Column I contains the start date of the leave and Column J contains the end date of the leave. Column L shows the number of days applicable to the leave period. There may be more than one row for the same employee but the leave dates will be different.
What I need to do is to find any entries for each employee where one period of leave immediately follows a previous leave period (sometimes these are entered separately into the system). E.g. An employee may have one period of leave which shows the end date as 6 June, 2007 and the next leave entry may show the start date as 7 June, 2007. I also need to determine the number of days between each period where they start date of one leave period does not immediately follow the end date of a previous period.
Due to the size of the spreadsheet, using filters is simply not an effective way to view these.
Could someone please give me a nudge in the right direction about the best way(s) to approach this?
TIA.
