Excel - Verifying Data...

WeaponX
Hi, I have an Excel spreadsheet here that has 4 columns in it. The Date, some number, and whether it was received or not.

I have the Not Received column highlighted in blue color. But what I want to do is that if there is an X marked in the column for Received, and the number matches to the one that's not received, I want the blue color to be changed to the default black again. As of now, I'm doing a lot of this manually.

So, for example:

Date Number Received Not Received
10/1/05 123 X
10/4/05 456 X
10/8/05 123 X

So I want that blue X to be marked back to black once the entry for 10/8/05 (with the same number but marked Received this time).

I tried doing an IF statement, but I don't know how to loop it through the whole list checking each Number in the column and also verifying that it's received.

Thanks in advance.

I have a complete spreadsheet tools e-book somewhere.. will hunt it down. Check your PM's for my private mail ID - send me your mailing ID so that I can e-mail you the spreadsheet e-book. you'll need to do a search through the e-book, but if what you're asking for is possible - then I do believe the e-book will be able to sort out your problems. Lemme start digging...
