    Compare running horizontal dates and highlight ones that break time dif rule

    Capture.PNG

    Hi All,

    I'm have a sheet that is used to track when tasks were done. See attachment. In the real sheet there are 10 tabs representing ten sites where the tasks are carried out. The tasks are monthly, quarterly and yearly. So I was hoping to create a sheet that would look at the other sheets and produce a report of what had been done on time or late. I'm open to changing the sheet style as it is the way it is for historical reasons.

    Cheers,

    Paul

    Re: Compare running horizontal dates and highlight ones that break time dif rule

    Will you please attach a SMALL sample Excel workbook (10-20 rows of data is usually enough)? However, please give us an indication of the approximate number of rows of data you want the solution to work with (100, 1000, 100,000 or whatever). Please don't attach a picture of an Excel sheet (no-one will want to re-type all your stuff before starting).

    1. It does NOT have to be your real sheet - mock up a SAMPLE if you need to. But not 1000's of rows!!! It makes manual checking so tedious. Whatever you do... make sure that all confidential information is removed first!!

    2. Make sure that your sample data are truly REPRESENTATIVE of your real data. The use of unrepresentative data is very frustrating and can lead to long delays in reaching a solution.

    3. Make sure that your desired solution is also shown (mock up the results manually).

    4. Try to avoid using merged cells. They cause lots of problems!

    Unfortunately the attachment icon doesn't work at the moment. So, to attach an Excel file you have to do the following: Just before posting, scroll down to Go Advanced and then scroll down to Manage Attachments. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.
