View 3 RepliesHow to compare two dates in excel. Like my requirement is I need to compare curent date vs from month begin date two weeks date.As of now I have tried like this.
Current Date : =TEXT(NOW(),"d")
Month Begindate : =TEXT(DATE(YEAR(NOW()),MONTH(NOW()),1)+14,"d")
And I have written condition like this : =IF(TEXT(NOW(),"d")
Formula for comparing two dates
Cell A1 = 5/5/2012 (Recent Date)
Cell B1 = 5/6/2011 (Hire Date)
Cell C1 = =YEAR(A1)-YEAR(B1)
This formula gives a result of '1' even though it doesn't show an entire year.
I've also tried this formula:
=DATEDIF(B1,A1, "y")
This is more accurate as it formulates '0' as the result.
However if for some reason the 'Recent Date' in cell A1 is 5/5/12 and the 'Hire Date' in cell B1 is after the 'Recent Date', say 5/6/2012, the formula =YEAR(A1)-YEAR(B1) has a result of '0' and the formula =DATEDIF(B1,A1, "y") has a result of #NUM!.
Is there a formula that will give me accurate results whether the 'Hire Date' is before or after the 'Recent Date'? Maybe something similar to =DATEDIF(B1,A1, "y") but will give a result of '0' instead of #NUM!
I have a comments field in a reporting SS that I need to flag when the last comment is over a week old. The date however is entered into the same cell as the comment and the latest comment is put on a new line in the same cell, ie:
13/02 - Jimmy met with Shirley to discuss project A
10/02 - awaiting meeting
07/02 - agenda issued
Now, if needed I can make the date complete to include the year, ie 13/02/2008.
Is it possible using functions to see if the date in this cell is over 7 days previous to the date in another cell, say J1?
I tried =IF(LEFT(H10,10)
I have trouble trying to get the right sintax of comparing two dates locates in two different sheets.
Example:
Sheet 1, cell A1 = 12/11/2009
Sheet 2, cell B1 = 12/11/2009
If I need to do something based on condition that Sheet1 date = sheet 2 date, how will the code be written? I have
If Sheets("Sheet1").range("A1") = Sheets("Sheet2").range("B1") Then

I'm trying to determine if one date meets the criteria to be considered 'on time'. I have two columns: estimated completion date and completion date. I want to compare the completion date to the estimated completion date and if completion date is <= completion date but is NOT = 1/1/2099 then I met my date. I've tried this several different ways and problem is I cannot make it work.
When estimated completion date is 1/1/2099 'on time' should be 'no'
When estimated completion date is not 1/1/2099 but is greater than completion date 'on time' should be 'no'
When completion date is <= estimated completion date and estimated completion date is not equal to 1/1/2099 'on time' should be 'yes'
And I have a null date to deal with also but if I can satisfy the first 3 criteria I can manipulate the null values manually.
I have a problem regarding month formatting
I have 12 columns, Jan 2013 - Dec 2013.
I need to set a format in which if I enter a num eg 15 on the Jan Column, format comes as "15-Jan" format
or If i type 20 on the march column , it comes as "20-Mar" format
I would need it in Date format, because I would be comparing dates later on.
I’m attempting to find values that are within a band of .001 of the values of cells in columns L through O and searching columns B through I for values that meet the .001 criteria and copying the values to columns Q, R, S, and T respectively.
I mentioned the values in L, M, N and O are where the comparisons will be made and these values are tagged to a specific date in Column K. I need to find the dates in Column A that are in between the values of K and the cell beneath it. For example, in K4 I have a date of 10/3/99 and the next date I have in K5 is 10/5/99. I would then query Column A for the dates 10/06/99 (A4), 10/07/99 (A5), and 10/08/99 (A6). The values I need to find within the .001 band are in Columns B through I (B4:I6). Lastly, when reach the last value in Column K, query all values in Column A greater than last value in K and copy the appropriate values in B through I to Q through T.
Rules for copying data to Column Q, R, S, and T:
For Column Q-
Find values in B, C, or D that’s within plus or minus .001 of M and copy the value of B, C, or D into Column Q of the same row.
For Column R-.................
Any easy formula to compare two columens of fixed dates and count how many of each fall within a certain range of each other.
So, for example:
Col 1 Col 2
20/1/11 21/1/11
20/1/11 31/1/11
18/1/11 24/1/11
Lets say col one is a start date and col 2 is an end date. Now say I want to count the number of times the end date falls within8 days of the start
I would have thought that something as simple as
Code:
sumproduct(--(a1:a3<(b1:b3+8))
would work, but clearly I am making a fundamental error, and no matter what I try I'm getting stuck.
In functions it is easy to simply say =if(a1>b1, do X, don't do X)
But how do I do this in VBA? Excel 2007
I want to be able to compare a user-input date to dates in a column, and return 1 if the date in the column is less than the user input date, and 2 if it is greater.
Code:
Dim TheString As String, ReportDate As Date
TheString = InputBox("Please enter the date this report was run in mm/dd/yyyy format:", "What date do you want to enter?", "mm/dd/yyyy")
If IsDate(TheString) Then
ReportDate = DateValue(TheString)
[Code] ...
Code:
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=IF(R[-1]C[23]
I have a simple formula to compare dates but it isn't working. I am missing something obvious. Any help is appreciated:
IF(BB64=Current_Date,"Today","Previous"))
where
Current_Date = today()
BB64 = an array that is a feed from a streaming quote company: =ILX|Q!'f,Date' .
When I format this cell it looks exactly like Current_Date, but is displays "Previous". Somehow it is not doing an apples to apples comparison even though the values lookthe same.
Is it possible to use multiple Vlookups in one macro?
Currently running a vlookup of computer names between multiple sheets, i need to be able to match product name and computer name between sheets.
For example (Sheet 2 column B) compare it to (sheet1 column B and C)
if it gets a match then vlookup to (sheet 2 column A) to (sheet 1 column A)

I have two separate columns of text and want to identify similarities/matches. vlookup false is good for exact matches but vlookup true is too approximate - is there a way to hone vlookup true to match first 4 or 5 text characters rather than just the first? If vlookup no good for this what is best function for identifying approximate matches in two separate text lists?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to compare dates that include both the date and time of day, to find when the day changes.
I have a large list of dates (also includes the time of day in the same cell). There are specific values in the next column that correspond to that date. Some of the values that are too great and have to be changed. This I have figured out with some help from this forum. When a value is changed I need to add together all the values for the corresponding day, some could be above and some could be below.

i want to compare between these two table based on the condition writen in RED. IF there is a mismatch i want to highlight the values in the first table.
I need to populate Sheet2 with the figures from Sheet1, where the data matches.
I think I need a VLookup of some sort to populate the blue box on Sheet2….
Firstly is this possible? If so, how?
I have attached a sample work sheet that has the directions and a sample.
I want to use vlookup (or any relevant formula) to find a value in a table if it falls between two dates. The sample worksheet does a lot better job explaining this.
For instance, if I want to find 3/1/15, it is between 2/1/15 and 4/1/15, so I want the dollar amount to be $8.75

I am making a spreadsheet using excel 2003 to calculate sales and tax. Column B is formated for date (1/1/2010). Column D,E, and F are formatted for currency with column D=Total Price, column E=sale price, and column F=tax. In column B I type the date the transaction took place and in column D I type total price. Columns E and F are automaticly filled in with the formulas for same. In column H,I J row 9 I would like to calculate 1st Quarter Total Price, Sale Price, and Tax. Row 10 would hold 2nd Quarter info and so on. I searched for info but can't come up with any thing that works.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble comparing two lists of clients with vlookup. The problem seems to be that the dates are in two separate formats. I'm combining the information to create unique identifiers (=A1&B1&C1).
example:
A1 B1 C1

comes out as: EricReilly01/04/85

My purpose is to compare date fields in two worksheets and have the formula tell me if the dates match. I took care to make sure the dates were true date using =datevalue()
=IF(B2=VLOOKUP(B2,'Raw Data'!$J$2:$K$9748,1,FALSE),"Match","NoMatch")
First, it returns #N/A
Second, I used the formula one column over to evaluate invoice numbers and it worked though in the few that did not match it returned #N/A and not NoMatch.
=IF(C2=VLOOKUP(C2,'Raw Data'!$J$2:$K$9787,1,FALSE),"Match","NoMatch")
Here is an example of what I am trying to do. I have a date in column A on Sheet 1. In Column B I want to return the period for which that date falls.
I have created a list of Start and End dates for each period in Sheet2. The start date is in Column A of Sheet2. The End Date is in Column B. And the resulting Period is in Column C.
Basically if the Date in Sheet1 Column A falls in between the start and end date for a specific period. I want that period returned in Column B of Sheet2.
I have two tables which both have two columns. One column has dates in it e.g. 01/09/04 and the second column has a number in it. What i am wanting to do is create a combo box that, when i select the date from the list, it brings up the number (that is in the cell next to it) and puts this number into the cell next to the combo box.
I know how to get the combo box and add the dates to the list, but how to bring the dates up.
I have tried creating a combo box with the dates and then formatting it to create a cell link. This link then brings up the first number of the date in the cell i have chosen. I have then selected a blank cell and entered the formula :
VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,col_index_num)
However, when i have tried this, it hasn't worked.
In column I, there is a list of dates - month and day only
In column J there is a list of dates, month,day, and year.
--I----------------J
1/14----------1/14/2009
1/14----------1/15/2009
1/14----------1/16/2009
1/15----------1/17/2009
in column K, I am trying to setup a Vlookup statement that states if the month and day in column I = the month and day in column J then return the value in column J.
I have the following formula, but it just returns N/A.
I have a two sets of data, from two different programs (Excel and Access), were the dates are not compatible with each other in vlookop in excel. The problem seems to be in the decimals of the datevalues, which I have been trying to solve the problem in various ways. The only thing I can get to work is to trunc the dates to get rid of flawed decimals somewhere in the end of the datevalue.
My question to you is how many decimals I should use when I trunc in order to keep the right date in the format of (yy-mm-dd hh:mm). So far, 10 have proven unsuccessful (=trunc(A2,10)), but 8 seems to work. I wonder if I can decrease that number even more and still keep the format above?
I'm trying to look up a value in Analytics Data searchin for the date in B9 to B & rader.
I get error messages, because i can't find the dates. But I'm sure I have defined the ranges correct. The code works in another workbook with the difference that the table with the variables I'm trying to lookup are in the same sheet as the where I want to place them.
Private Sub Upd1_Click()
Dim rader As Double
Dim lookrng As range
Dim updvalue0 As Double
Dim updvalue1 As Double
Dim updvalue2 As Double
Dim updvalue3 As Double
Dim updvalue4 As Double

I have a table that shows a row of dates, a row of campaigns, and then a row of values I need to reference. I need to pull the values for a specific date and corresponding campaign.
For example, I need to pull the value for campaign 'notset' on 6/16/09.
I tried the following, but it would only work on the first and last campaign: ...
does it not like dates? i have columns of data and i wish to search it for each month and then print a months worth. here is part of the data. maybe vlookup does not like dates? i tried putting an index column on the left, 1,2,3,4... but it still would not pick up "Jun"
