Looking up if people have data in either of both of a few collum

Is there an easy way to filter if people have been to either or both days of a multi day event. Attendance is marked in individual columns per day against each attendees name. some will be blank in one column so can't just do a sort. I have been changing attended to 1 and doing sum values so people either have 0 1 or 2 but feel this is over complicated and there is likely a better option

Hi Kate,

Thank you for the forum question.

You saw the Advanced filter on the Excel Intermediate course.

You will need to create a criteria range. Set up the criteria. Select a single cell in the list you want to filter. Click Advanced Filter in the Sort & Filter group. Add the range in which you have created the criteria range and click OK.

I have created an example I have attached to the answer.

Kind regards

Excel tip:

Creating a range of monthly payments as text

You could use a formula to create a range of payment ie. payment amount for x% to y% rate with fixed terms and principle.

The text that would be "between Xamount and Yamount".

Here is how to do it.

1 Use the PMT function to get your monthly payments figure or whatever frequency of payments that you choose he start range.

See PMT under Excel Help

2. Nest these in the ROUND function to round decimals see ROUND under Excel Help

3. Concatenate this using "&" and concatenate " to " and concatenate "Between ".

4. Concatenate the above to PMT function for the end range

ie.

="Between "&ROUND((PMT1),decimal places)&" and "&ROUND((PMT2),decimal places)
