Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
How about this:
Press Alt-F11 to bring up the VBA window.
In the left pane, double-click on the "ThisWorkbook" icon.
Paste this in:

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
Range("A1").Select
Do Until ActiveCell.Text = ""
If Format(Now(), "dd/mm/yy") = Format(ActiveCell.Value, "dd/mm/yy") Then
ActiveCell.End(xlToRight).Offset(0, 1).Value = Format(Now(), "hh:mm")
Else
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
End If
Loop
ActiveCell.Value = Format(Now(), "dd/mm/yy")
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Value = Format(Now(), "hh:mm")
End Sub

What you ask for sounds possible,

Post your worksheet (use Colo's HTML Maker at the bottom of this sheet) and provide a more detailed explanation.

I am still not sure I understand, but try this (if I read it correctly):

I assume that you have your data in columns A:D
In a cell (say H1), type =today()
In the next cell (I1), type
=vlookup(h1,a:d,2,false)
In J1:
=vlookup(h1,a:d,3,false)
In K1:
=vlookup(h1,a:d,4,false)

Is that what you want?

Sir, i tried the way u mentioned..

But i guess that was not it..

i juz showed above the nature of my table ..

It basically requires to compare the Current date with the Dates in Column A

and if there is a match, the 3 time datas corresponding to that particular date have to be published as the "Out Put"

seems simple, but dono how to.. Comparing using IF statement and Today() can be done, but how to gt the data frm 3 diff cells?
