Help Needed..Urgent..

[Devil]

First post, was following this site for a while, though never registered as I used to get results looking for, by searching the threads.

Rt now, am stuck with a large sheet which has data in the below format,

Sheet #1 :

In Sheet #2 the values against Date 1, Date 2... are the 'dd' part of Sheet 1 header date in format (dd/mm/yyyy). Criteria is wherever a "W" or "A" occurs the corresponsing date should be displayed against the Emp code (format is text).

Any urgent help will be appreciated. Hope my explanation is clear.

 

[Aladin Akyurek]

Wow!!! That was brilliant.

Thanks Aladin and energman.

@Aladin : as am a newbie, a little help in making me understand the formula (logic) you posted will really appreciated.

1]

COLUMNS($C2:C2)

yields a count between 1 and N.

2]

INDEX(Sheet1!$C$2:$G$5,MATCH($A2,Sheet1!$A$2:$A$5,0),0)

creates a horizontal range related to A2.

3]

SUM(COUNTIF(INDEX(Sheet1!$C$2:$G$5,MATCH($A2,Sheet1!$A$2:$A$5,0),0),{"A","W"}))

yields a count of A and W's.

As long as the column count <= the count of A's and W's...

4]

MATCH(INDEX(Sheet1!$C$2:$G$5,MATCH($A2,Sheet1!$A$2:$A$5,0),0),{"A","W"},0)

matches the values in the horizontal range [ see 2 above ] against the array consisting of A's and W's.

5] ISNUMBER around the MATCH in 4 yields TRUE/FALSE.

6] With IF around ISNUMBER in 5, we create an integer array like in:

{FALSE,FALSE,3,FALSE,5}

which is adjusted to yield integers from 1 to 5, using

COLUMN(Sheet1!$C$2:$G$5)-COLUMN(Sheet1!$C$2)+1

7] SMALL around the IF picks out the integers from the array in 6 one by one, which are the desired results here.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Aladin.

That definitely helps. Appreciate your promptness in replying.

Again thanks a bunch.
