Hi all.
A small problem I just can't seem to wrap my head around...
I am trying to create a planner and I've tried countif, Datavalidation and conditional formating but when ever I think I am close no dice.
My challenge is this:
I have X number of people who all have to have lunch together each month but only one on one.
So if Person 1 has lunch with Person 2 they can't have lunch with person 3, 4, 5, and 6 that month.
My sheet would look something like this:
[TABLE="class: grid, width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]A[/TD]
[TD]B[/TD]
[TD]C[/TD]
[TD]D[/TD]
[TD]E[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]1[/TD]
[TD]Name[/TD]
[TD]January[/TD]
[TD]February[/TD]
[TD]March[/TD]
[TD]Etc..[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]2[/TD]
[TD]Name 1[/TD]
[TD]Name 2[/TD]

[TR]
[TD]6[/TD]
[TD]Name 5[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD]Name 4[/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[TD][/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]
What I need is to somehow check if the same combination exist in the same month?
IE. February where Name 2 & 4 both have a appointment with Name 5.
Like I said I just canøt wrap my head around it..
What gets me everytime is that I need to somehow check if name X is present in Column Month and the value can be either 0, 1 then true and if more than 1 then Error.
There might be a simple solution to this but I just can't see it
Sincerely
