Hey @Tommy23,

What would you expect in the new column, would all rows with ID 1 and ID 2 have "yes" in them for example?

Curious what others think, but my thought is that you would need to build a macro that takes one row and then compares it to all other rows. Also, I would make sure that your ID field is actually an ID and doesn't have duplicates.

Hey @Tommy23,

Is this the output your looking for?

Its yes if it covers or is being covered by another ID. I can change it to only look for ID's which are covered.

Any questions or issues please ask :)
HTH!

@FreeRangeDingo   ID is not an ID it is like a name or something it is not unique sorry for this misunderstand

Hello thanks for this,

 

I would like to be Yes if it is covered only by a period on the same ID, is what you did?

 

or you did "Its yes if it covers or is being covered by another ID"
