I spoke a little too soon. It looks like if you select a piece of equipment for two overlapping projects then it leaves the equipment column blank, which is what I want it to do, but if you select the same piece of equipment for two projects where the dates do not overlap, it still does this. I would like for it to allow me to select the same piece of equipment for multiple projects as long as the dates do not overlap.
I'll try to decipher the formula to see if I can make the adjustments.
Thanks again for the help!
hope you can work it out...
if not, try reposting it.. someone here in the forum may provide a solution.
thanks..
I think I've got it.
I changed $D$3>$C3:$C9 to $D3>=$C$3:$C$9
It seems to be working the way I envisioned it right now. I can now select the same piece of equipment for multiple projects. If the projects dates are not overlapping then it will allow the same piece of equipment. If the dates overlap then I get an "overallocation" flag letting me know to either change the dates or select a different piece of equipment.
Thanks again for your help!
so glad to hear that.
the best person to really help you is yourself!
so honored to be a part of that..
