Default The Tueday prior to a holiday...


If I have holidays identified with an H in the A column, I need to find the
prior Tues, from the Sat prior to the holiday.
Basically I need to find the Sat prior to the holiday, then go back 4 days.
I'd like the results to show in the D column like ALERT.

Thanks,

Steve

In those instances, I'd have to manually change the H code to Friday, and
same thing for a Sun - Monday.

This isn't a binary newsgroup, so we wouldn't expect to see any attachments.

Dennis,
Your below solution worked great.

Values
1/1/2010 6
1/2/2010 7 Saturday
1/3/2010 1
1/4/2010 2
1/5/2010 3 Tuesday ALERT

Formulas
in C2 =WEEKDAY(B2)

in D2 =IF(C2=7,"Saturday",IF(C2=3,"Tuesday",""))

in E2
=IF(AND(D2="Tuesday",OR(A6="H",A7="H",A8="H",A9="H ",A10="H",A11="H",A12="H")),"ALERT","")

Thanks again,

Steve

Both of thse are producing Alerts for every Tuesday, not just the H idenfied
Tuesdays's.

Hi. I may have read this wrong, but it looks like to me with

OR(A6="H",A7="H",A8="H",A9="H",A10="H",A11="H",A12 ="H")

You are returning TRUE if 1 or more are "H"

I believe this also returns True if 1 or more are "H"

COUNTIF(A6:A12,"H")0)

I don't see the error just yet... :~
