Hi there,

Trying to work on this problem for a bit now.
I am trying to restrict one condition for this time frame
$H$8 =AND(J41-INT(J41)>=TIMEVALUE("13:00:00"),J41-INT(J41)<TIMEVALUE("14:00:00"))

with column x refering to it
IF($H$8, SOME CONDITION, PREVIOUS CELL VALUE)
so that once the condition is met say B3<=-10 it will be flagged true for the rest of the day

how do i do this?

If your formula goes TRUE between the TIMEVALUEs, it won't necessarily stay TRUE.
Take a look at this solution:

Let me know if you need more help.

How many Rows in Column H are available for setting state like this?

@tom works like a gem thanks

@bedhog I think H,I, J are the only column that doesn't scroll so as many rows as you have I guess, or you can do a test I've never tried the max rows it will take

I am finding a problem

H8 holds =AND(J41-INT(J41)>=TIMEVALUE("13:00:00"),J41-INT(J41)<TIMEVALUE("14:00:00"))

H9 holds =AND(OR(AND(H8=TRUE, CT3<=-4000),H10>1),H11=FALSE)

H10 holds a counter to hold the condition true
=IF($H$8=TRUE, H10+1,IF(INT(A3)>INT(A4), 1, H10))

H11 is the release on the lock
=INT(A3)>INT(A4)


The issue is H9 goes to true automatically without evaluation ct3<=-4000. how can that happen?

I think the locking formula should be this:
=AND(OR(H9=TRUE,AND(CT3<=-4000,H10>1)),H11=FALSE)

The locking TRUE formula should reference its own cell (H9), and the second part of the OR statement is the condition that initiates the TRUE.

my bad, I know what happened I wasn't referencing to the locking true formula, thanks
