From what I’ve read, it’ll only return the required value or the next smaller value.

Ex.

I want it to find the value at or greater than 2.2 and here’s my data:

1
2
2.5
3

If I used ‘lookup’ it’ll return a value of ’2′ when I want it to return a value of ’2.5′.

Thanks

Jim

I have a question I have a data for about a year where in I have entry of customers who come in at different time of a day,I have it sorted for the entire month and I am trying to calculate the total number of arrivals that occur in a particular hour through out the month so I can come up with an arrival rate for a day based all the data I have.

For ex:

G.W.Bush 1/12/05 10:27 (in)
Clinton 1/12/05 10:30 (in)
John Kerry 1/12/05 10:35 (in)

Rice 1/12/05 11:00 (in)
Agassi 1/12/05 11:15 (in)
Sampras 1/12/05 11:35 (in)

from the data you can see there were 3 people who arrived b/w 10-11 and 3 b/w 11-12 like that I have data for the whole day and whole month sorted by day and time. so I just want tocalculate the total number of arrival in 24 hour period for the entire month.

Hope you could be of help to my question.

thanks!
Ram.
