    Another fantastic way to highlight numbers in a range/table. (TOPPIE)
    A very well thought out and structured approach and easy to adapt to the own needs.
    Thank you.
    Looking forward for more ....

    Very nice project and masterfully explained.
    I personally would use the CHOOSE function instead of IF when referencing the option button linked cell output directly.
    IF always has to process the test and then return the true or false option whereas CHOOSE just run the option based on the index returned by the option button.
    Also CHOOSE is a charm where you have more than 2 option buttons grouped.

      You are SO RIGHT! I should have done that. I just forgot about CHOOSE, and I love that little guy. I'm a dum-dum. Thanks for reminding me, and for watching.

    JUST AWESOME!! I took a little break from keeping up to date with the new videos and I came back to such amazing project idea! I also think this would make a great new series - oriented around creating actual projects! There is little to none of such content on youtube with Excel.

    • @bcti-bcti

      Yeah, I agree. The issue is that the amount of time it takes to put one of those "project-based" videos together, versus the number of views it generates, is just not proportional. That doesn't mean I won't still try to make those kinds of videos, they just won't occur as often as hoped for. Thanks for watching.

    Really nice! I have only two tiny changes to your solution. The first requires 365 and is the formula in the error message cell. I used:
    =XLOOKUP(1,S10:S11,T10:T11,"")
    Which is a tiny bit simpler and doesn't need the IFERROR function. The other thing I changed was the too high count message:
    ="Please select a Value less than the total number of sales entries: " & TEXT(COUNT(Sales),"#,###")
    I thought providing the maximum for N would be helpful. I had to extend the merged cells (one of the few times merging is acceptable since it requires two rows) to column M to fit the message.
    Still a great lesson!

    • @bcti-bcti
      @bcti-bcti  2 месяца назад +1

      100% Agreed! I prefer the XLOOKUP, but I try to make these as compatible as possible for the wider audience. Also, I thought about adding a "max count" notation, but it slipped my mind. Thanks for the reminder. Thanks for the contribution!!!
