Hello,

I would need a small help to find a date. In my sample file (the original file contains more thousand rows) I want to find the first departure date when the remaining stock is turn to negative value regarding each unique part number.

I attached the expected result also.

Thanks for your advice!

Hi ,

The significant point that has not been mentioned is whether the data is such that all the same part numbers are together or is the data dispersed so that the same part number can occur in cells which are widely separated locations.

If it is the former , then a simple IF statement can also work.

See the attached file.

Hi Jaya ,

You cannot select a range such as C$2:C2 ; you have to select the range C2 first , press the SHIFT key and press the : key so that Excel displays C2:C2.

At this stage , you can do two things :

1. Go ahead with entering the rest of the formula ; when the formula is completed , press F2 to go into EDIT mode , use the cursor keys to go to the appropriate places in the formula where you press F4 to get the $ sign in the right place.

2. Press F2 to go into EDIT mode , use the cursor keys to go to the appropriate place in the formula where you press F4 to get the $ sign in the right place , and thereafter continue entering the rest of the formula.
