formulas/function require (2)

[craig@help]

Please bear me with this as I'm fairly new to this:-

Im currently working on a project with the excel however I'm totall
stuck on formulas/function that i needs.

(1)I need to 'ASK' execel to 'TYPE' "X" or "Y" on the base of what yea
did a job started, e.g rewiring, central heating etc.

I have tried this:-

=if(or(g10<$a$1,g10<$a$s),"X","Y")

(a1=01/04/2005)
(b1=31/03/2005)

It will work only if a job has started, if no job star, then a "X" o
"Y" will appears, how do we get the function to work only when a jo
started please?

(2)

There is another one that I'm stuck with, if a date has been input i
a1 with =a1 in colunm b1, a date will appear but if N.W.R (no wor
require) or D/C (disclaimer), then N.W.R and D/C will appear in b1, i
there a formulas/function that will work for only DATE, not text? Mak
any sense? if not, let me know i can see if i include attachment(??)

Sorry M8, my mistake with typing, $A$S should be $A$5.

G10 is where i want the result to be place at.

=if(isnumber(a1),a1,"")format as a date

this above to helps to work out between like between 01/04/05 an
31/03/05?

Do u require attachment? I'm happy to send one example.

Craig:rolleyes

Back again, sorry for confusing, just worked it out which project this
is for (=if(isnumber(a1),a1,"")format as a date), yes this does work,
however still litte problem, let me see if i can work it out 1st.

Cheers for info.

Hi

Here the information you required, sorry can't seem to get the
attachment to work but here the info below:-

(A1) 01/04/2005
(A2) 31/03/2006

(E1) 04/07/2005
(F1) 00/01/1900
(G1) 04/07/2005

(in G1 =E1+F1)
(in H1 =IF(OR(G1<A1,G1<A2),"X","Y")

If no date has been input or 00/01/1900, it will come up an "X", how do
we stop this, only for when a date is input?

Hope this make sense to you?

Craig

P.S. i have other info to ask u but just wanna see if ok with u 1st
