    VBA -- Compare two dates and map "Yes" or " No" -- Getting Syntax Error at FormulaR1C1

    Dear all,

    I'm trying to compare two dates from two different column values. If they are same, I need to map as "Yes" and otherwise "No".

    I've written a Formula and getting an error at the following line in my code:

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    Goal is to calculate the same using formula.

    Ex:

    A B C
    Emp No Start Date Term Date No Show?
    1 3/6/2017 3/6/2017
    2 11/28/2016

    In the end, value under "No Show?" column should be:

    =IF(A2=B2),"Yes","No"

    PFA for the sheet with error at the code mentioned above.

    Request your help in fixing this line of code

    Thanks,
    Vinod Krishna

    Why not just place this formula in cell D2 and copy it down:
    =IF(B2=C2,"Yes","No")
    You can say "THANK YOU" for help received by clicking the Star symbol at the bottom left of the helper's post.
    Practice makes perfect. I'm very far from perfect so I'm still practising.

    Hi Mumps1,

    Columns " Start Date " and " Term Date " can change positions. the above coding logic is part a bigger macro and it is important for me to achieve this using VBA.

    Thanks,
    Vinod Krishna
