The Tuesday prior to a holiday...
Yes, they are both producing TRUEs, but the 2 suggestions you originally made
are producing, if I expand it through the entire year, 52 ALERTs for every Tuesday. I may not have been very clear, but The H coding was corresponding to Holidays, so I wanted to have those alerts only on the Tuesdays prior to the Saturdays where the holiday fell. Meaning only 10 alerts on those particular Tuesdays, if there were 10 coded H's. Thanks, Steve "Dana DeLouis" wrote: 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... :~ Dana DeLouis On 3/16/10 4:19 PM, Steve wrote: Both of thse are producing Alerts for every Tuesday, not just the H idenfied Tuesdays's.

Would this work? wrote in message ... 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.
