Hi guys and girls and please help.
I am trying to make an "active excel sheet".
To be specific, imagine there is a boat travelling by a schedule and I want to show in a cell the actual port/status, next port/status name, time until next location, time until arrival/departure.
I have the schedule, but don't know where/how to start.
The reference point is now(date&time).
The schedule is like this, 1st 10 days of July. The fact is that if I reffer to DAY, I have missing days, like 07/02/2019, when the boat sails all 2nd of July. Same story with 4th, 10th etc.
Thanks and sorry if there is something simillar but had no idea what to search for.
Regards!
