    Find duplicates with sumproduct

    Hello Karthik, Try: =SUMPRODUCT((UsersList=B2)*(FromTime<=C2)*(ToTime>=D2)) It will provide a count of overlapping times. Anything with a count greater than 1 would be a duplicate. Cheers, Sajan.

    What kind of jobs require advanced excel knowledge?

    Hi, The definition of what is considered Advanced Excel might vary from person to person. For example, I consider VBA programming pretty basic, while many formulas require more thought. I think another way to look at usage is the degree to which Excel is used in a situation, and what type of...

    Finding unique arrays

    One thing I forgot to mention... the above formula would count a match if values are out of sequence... i.e. {A";"B";"C"} and {"C";"A";"B"} will match. If you need to respect the position of a value in the array, the above formula will need to be tweaked.

    Hi Sumit, Can you define interpolation and extrapolation without using those words in the definitions? Then provide some examples of how you created such keys. (Don't omit any steps... what you might assume is clear to others is not clear to others at all.) -Sajan.

    Percentile option in Pivot

    Hi Karan, There may be other ways to do this, but the following is one approach: Add a column in your source data that calculates the percentile summary. For example: =LOOKUP(PERCENTRANK.INC($B$2:$B$9,$B2), {0,25,50,75,100}/100) where B2:B9 is numeric data, and the formula entered is to find...

    What are the expected results in the following example: 1,2,3,Two,Two 2,3,4,Two 1,2,2,Two,Two Since "two" is found in row 1 also, will the MIN row be 1 or 2? Will the MAX row be 1 or 3? I am basically trying to understand if the position of a substring in a row is relevant.
