Hello All,
Would like to see if someone can help me with the following issue:

I am comparing the information typed into cells D61, 62, 63, 64, 65 to the static information in cells C61, 62, 63, 64, 65.

This is how the static information appears in the C cells:
C61 has 2:00
C62 has 3:00
C63 has 4:00
C64 has 8:30
C65 has 10:30

I used =IF(D61<=C61,"YES","NO") in the equivalent E cells and copied it down to E65 so if the manually entered info in the D cells was equal to or less than the C cells I would get YES and if it was greater than I would get a NO.

Works perfectly on all except when comparing D65 to C65. As long as anything between 10:00 and 10:30 is entered I get a YES but if anything else is entered I get a NO even when it is less than 10:30. All info is formatted as text.
 
Hi!

Try the formulas below:

=IF(--D61 <= --C61,"YES","NO")

or

=IF(TIMEVALUE(D61) <= TIMEVALUE(C61),"YES","NO")

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
The BEST way is to correct the info and change them to Formats like General, Number, Time, etc., but if you can't or don't want to do that, then this might work:
