    finding correct values for appointed cells from other tables

    Hi all, Im struggling to figure out how to do this, I have a list of people's local time zone & made a table in a timeline style where I put 1's & 0's as value & using that to graph a chart, att he same time Im also trying to make another table next to it that is the conversion time zone of mines (GMT-8), where I already had formulas in each cell telling me what time the appointed cell would be. However, Im trying to convert that conversion table into same tyle as my 1st table where I use 1's & 0's, so that I can graph a chart of all people compare into my time zone.

    At first I tried using HLOOKUP, but it didnt work. it wont see the value. Im hoping if any of u maybe have a better idea than mines or able to correct my HLOOKUP usage method. attached is the worksheet Im working on. The final product I want is the 3rd table on the right where it say "Based On GMT-8 time line. Right now those empty cells & some are manually put in, what I want is to have a formula or some sort method that can auto lookup values comparing the conversion table & local timeline table & put the correct 1's & 0's.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Re: finding correct values for appointed cells from other tables

    my apology, here I take a screenshot to explain better.

    Explain.png

    the Left table (local time), has 1's & 0's to tell person what time they are online. The middle table (grey conversion table) is auto formulate where it'll convert local time into my GMT-8. The right side table which is now empty with some cells filled (manually) are the final area where I need it to auto-fill either by formula or some sort to have it put also 1's & 0's to indicate the person's online time but in MY time zone GMT-8.

    The reason why I need it in this format is I have another extend spreadsheet that collects data from this template, and uses it to update a chart to tell the peak time of users. etc.

    I hope this explains better

    P.S that screenshot I had to HIDE some columns since screen is too wide to capture to post in here.

    Re: finding correct values for appointed cells from other tables

    OMG yes!!! that's it, u got it! THANKS SO MUCH!

    I see what u did on conversion table, its much more cleaner than what I did, but may I ask what's the function =IF(ISNUMBER(AG10),1,0) how that works? I never use that function before.

    Again, thankyou sooooo much!!

    Re: finding correct values for appointed cells from other tables

    Just in case Glenn does not get back to you, what that does is 1st test to see if AG10 contains a number/value (as opposed to text). If it does, it returns a 1, else it returns a 0

    You also have used just...
    =--ISNUMBER(AG10)
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools

    =N(AG10)

    Re: finding correct values for appointed cells from other tables

    Now only the last part, which is the most important part needs to solve.

    With Glenn's ISNUMBER() function, we'll able to get this..
    Attachment 498943

    But what I want is to have the hours pointed to the correct "Headers" of that table. Which the final result should look like this.
    Attachment 498944

    Now Glenn's improvement gave me a new idea, is there a function I can put in the ROW that will search the same HOURS that matches the HEADERS & put a 1's value in cell?

    I'm away for a while. I'll be back later, assuming no one else has sorted this out by then.

    Re: finding correct values for appointed cells from other tables

    A few mods to Glenns suggestion...
    AF9=IF(H9=1,AF$6+(($G9--($F9="Yes"))/24),"")
    copied down and across
    BD9=--ISNUMBER(AF9)...(=N(AF9) wont work here)
    copied down and across

    Your attachments did not come through, can you try again?

    Re: finding correct values for appointed cells from other tables

    Ok, now I had new development. I used COUNTIF function, it did solved the problem where I need the 3rd table (Blue) to show 1's & 0's that matches the conversion table. but it came with new problem. The Date/Time conversion value is not the same as the headers. Now the problem is at the 2nd table (Conversion table).

    What i change:
    BD9=COUNTIF($AF9:$BC9,BD$6)

    I attached my worksheet with new changes.

    Now I need to find out how to convert those time zone differences but remain within the SAME DAY.
