I am having difficulty in trying accomplish the following in a formula:
"where 1 or more value is equal to itself in a range - take its corresponding difference once and add to the dependent task date"
i have 4 columns of data:
1. Estimated Task Due Date (column a) (auto-calc formula)
2. Enter Revised Action Date (column b) (user enters a manual date if date given in column a does not work for them)
3. Dependency Re-Calc Date (column c) (need formula for this)
4. # of Days Difference b/n "Estimated Task Due Date" and "Enter Revised Action Date" (i.e. A1-B1 - A1's date will always be further out than B1 due to its formula)
I designed this simple formula to compare 2 cells to each other and need to accomplish the same thing with regard to a range:
=IF(A1=B2, D1+A3, IF(A1<>B24, SUM(D1+D2)+A3))
The above formula (highlighted in yellow below) is comparing 3 tasks -- Task/Line 3 is dependent on Tasks/Lines 1 & 2. Therefore, if manual dates are entered in column b -- the difference b/n the estimated date given in column a and the new manual date in column b needs to be added to Task/Line 3 Estimated Task Due Date.

The problem I am running into is when it comes time to compare more than 2 cells of dates. If you look to the left of the cell highlighted in yellow you will see a date of 8/15. Two lines below the 8/15 shows again. I need the formula to reflect when the dates equal to take the difference of 7 only once. Hopefully this is making sense...
Any help any one can provide is greatly appreciated! I've spent hours on this already trying to figure it out.
"where 1 or more value is equal to itself in a range - take its corresponding difference once and add to the dependent task date"
i have 4 columns of data:
1. Estimated Task Due Date (column a) (auto-calc formula)
2. Enter Revised Action Date (column b) (user enters a manual date if date given in column a does not work for them)
3. Dependency Re-Calc Date (column c) (need formula for this)
4. # of Days Difference b/n "Estimated Task Due Date" and "Enter Revised Action Date" (i.e. A1-B1 - A1's date will always be further out than B1 due to its formula)
I designed this simple formula to compare 2 cells to each other and need to accomplish the same thing with regard to a range:
=IF(A1=B2, D1+A3, IF(A1<>B24, SUM(D1+D2)+A3))
The above formula (highlighted in yellow below) is comparing 3 tasks -- Task/Line 3 is dependent on Tasks/Lines 1 & 2. Therefore, if manual dates are entered in column b -- the difference b/n the estimated date given in column a and the new manual date in column b needs to be added to Task/Line 3 Estimated Task Due Date.

The problem I am running into is when it comes time to compare more than 2 cells of dates. If you look to the left of the cell highlighted in yellow you will see a date of 8/15. Two lines below the 8/15 shows again. I need the formula to reflect when the dates equal to take the difference of 7 only once. Hopefully this is making sense...
Any help any one can provide is greatly appreciated! I've spent hours on this already trying to figure it out.
