Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ Re: Find column # of first value greater than specified value?
I don’t recall why?? I gave that answer. Can you give more detail with examples
and the logic of what you want.

Hello, I'm confused about that response. I don't know how SUMPRODUCT would help
here. Could you explain a bit?
Thanks

Here is an example. I want to check row 8 ("Price move") to see whether a
value greater than 1 or less than -1 comes first, and return "up" or "down" in
a specified cell based on which comes first ("up" if 1 comes first and "down"
if -1 comes first).
Eventually I want to check the next 30 values in row 8, starting from a cell
to be determined, like an array re-defined to 30 columns to the right each time
(I haven't gotten that far yet). Thanks!

$$Excel-Macros$$ Re: Find column # of first value greater than specified value?
Let me rephrase: Eventually I'll have one of two words in a row of cells (e.g. "up" or "down") and I want to know which one comes first. How can I get Excel to tell me whether the *first* instance of "up" or "down" comes in an earlier column? -- FORUM RULES (986+ members already BANNED for violation) 1) Use concise, accurate thread titles.

Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ Re: Find column # of first value greater than specified value?
My 2 cents
What I understand is row 8 has data today price minus previous day price.
So in row 7 you can give:
=if(d7<1,"down","up")
