Hi, A neat little solution. However the answer interpolates between the values on each side. A series based on curves will lose accuracy, regards Ray In a message dated 06/08/2010 17:17:43 GMT Daylight Time, m99pan...@gmail.com writes:
Cell B4 isnt blank...I suggested that he put his X Axis coordinates beginning in cell B4. In cell B4, I said enter the number 1. In cell C4 enter the number 2 etc. Part of the difficulty in solving the math behind this problem is that there were missing variables. The X axis coordinates were missing. I suppose you could impute the X axis coordinates (using a count function), but I choose not to do that. Cell C5 may or not be blank depending on the series of numbers in row 2 and row 3. If there is no intersection between those series values (C2 & C3) and the prior series values ( B2 & B3) the formula in cell C5 will return "N/A". If there is an intersection, then cell C5 will not be blank.
