Arrays are difficult to understand because Excel holds them internally and it’s hard to conceptualize how operations are performed on the data. I had a vexing problem that was solved by using a single-cell array formula and wanted to share it with you.
However, because of the subject nature of Arrays, I’m going to show the solution to this problem in two parts. Here I’ll cover a Multi-Cell Array formula and my next post will talk about a Single-Cell Array formula, which, turns out, is my magic formula. The Problem Here’s an example worksheet. The data here is rather simple: Date, Plan, and Actual. The Plan data is set, and Actual data is plugged in when completed. My ultimate goal is to have a formula in cell B2 for the Cum Plan, which summarizes Plan history, i.e., for all dates in the past. And keep in mind I need the formula to work with earlier versions of Excel, so no SUMIF S availability.
