Default Formula That Checks For Changes

Hi,

Am Sat, 26 Nov 2016 21:15:18 -0000 (UTC) schrieb tb:

I have a spreadsheet with the following columns:
* Col. A: Part numbers
* Cols. B, C, and D: Current data that pertains to part numbers in col.
A
* Cols. E, F, and G: Proposed new data that pertains to said part
numbers. Such data is obtained by formulas linked to other
spreadsheets.

What I would like to do is have a formula in col. H that inserts an "X"
if any data in cols. B-D is different than that in cols. E-G. If none
of the data is different, then it should insert a blank ("").


in H1 try:
=IF(ISERROR(MATCH(G1&H1&I1,$B$1:$B$200&$C$1:$C$200 &$D$1:$D$200,0)=ROW()),"x","")
and insert the formula with CTRL+Shift+Enter


Regards
Claus B.
