- Ted Nugent's new album? -- nm - amoxy Sep 7, 13:04 5
  - No, it was something even more out of place than that. -- nm - crash davis Sep 7, 13:06 4
    - a 15 second Predator ad -- nm - NiKlaus Sep 7, 13:08 1

Spreadsheet help/quiz: I want to return the left-most value in a row with columns that have different values or blanks. - Max Sep 7, 12:22 12
- The index/match is slightly more elegant here (at least for Excel). Also includes a coalesce VBA function that could be recoded as a sheets function. -- (link) - zork Sep 7, 13:16
- As a follow-up, between Index/Match and Indirect/Query one a better tool for the job? More elegant, more efficient, or more user friendly? - Max Sep 7, 12:45 2
  - The QUERY one made a lot more sense to me logically. It is sometimes hard to "debug" the INDEX/MATCH because of how nested it is. -- nm - oblique Sep 7, 12:46 1
    - Does the query function allow coalesce as the SQL statement? -- nm - zork Sep 7, 13:13
- does this work? -- (link) - oblique Sep 7, 12:31 1
  - Indirect and Query. That looks like he's asking for vertical instead of horizontal but I assume the range could just be switched. Thanks! -- nm - Max Sep 7, 12:35
- How many columns do you have? -- nm - Roger More Sep 7, 12:25 3
  - Never mind that either. This formula in cell A2: INDEX(B2:G2,MATCH(TRUE,INDEX((B2:G2<>0),0),0) ) -- nm - Roger More Sep 7, 12:28 1
    - Aha, index and match, nifty. That worked, thanks! -- nm - Max Sep 7, 12:31
  - In this case less than a dozen, so I'm not bothered by a long formula. -- nm - Max Sep 7, 12:27
- There's a LEFT function -- nm - Roger More Sep 7, 12:23 1
  - Oh hang on, that's for something else -- nm - Roger More Sep 7, 12:24

  - I joined the AMC thing. Pretty cool. I paid the online fee for booking. Pre-movie in the ad for it I saw, "Waived online fees go by"? -- nm - Spawn Sep 7, 12:15 7
    - I think because you book all your movies in their app you don't pay any convenience fees. - oblique Sep 7, 12:17 6
      - Ah! The first one, I booked on the website and got dinged. I will do the next in the ap. Think I am seeing Searching tonight. Thanks! -- nm - Spawn Sep 7, 12:18 5
        
        Shouldn't matter on app or website. I don't get any fees when booking with a-list. If you are, something is broken -- nm - oblique Sep 7, 12:23 4
        
        I had just joined up, but it knew I had and discounted the ticket price but not the online fee. Hmm. -- nm - Spawn Sep 7, 12:34 3
        
        Yeah, that's weird. As long as you use AMC's app or site, should be $0 -- nm - oblique Sep 7, 12:39 2
        
        I WANT MY $1.50!!! -- (edited) - Spawn Sep 7, 12:42 1

  - I'm insulted that you assume this isn't my spreadsheet -- nm - ty97 Sep 7, 12:34 3
    - It says "Daniel" at the top. I am sure you are emailing him about all the errors you found in it when compared to yours. -- nm - Spawn Sep 7, 12:35 2
      - Plus we all know that ty97's spreadsheet would be much more aesthetically pleasing and more easily readable. - ReluctantCynic Sep 7, 12:47 1
        
        There would certainly be many more background colors -- nm - ty97 Sep 7, 12:48
  - He has to *compare* them. -- nm - Spawn Sep 7, 12:21 1
    - Oh! Right! - ReluctantCynic Sep 7, 12:28

LYC: Pippy: Made these lemon bars last night after having a no-bun burger at Red Robin for dinner. Used like six small lemons but it wasn't lemony - oblique Sep 7, 11:01 14
