So I had the genius idea of making a excel document with important information password protected without wiring down the password.

Naturally I forgot the password, any ways to get around this and get in the file?
Send me the file I'll send it back unlocked

What excel version did you use?
The workbook is protected or the worksheet?

Cell A1 has a date 11/1/2016

Cell A2 has value "Payments"

In Cell C1 I want to do = A1 & A2 To get : 11/1/2016 Payments. Instead I am getting:  42675Payments

Need to have date format. and also a space would be nice but not necessary.

Thanks

good day,
looking for a formula ( for commission) if reach quota = 0.25 if exceed - on the extra i will pay $1.25
so if his quota is 1000 and he sold 2000 i would pay $250 plus $1250= total $1500
thanx

You do realize that if the guy sells $5,000, you'll be paying him $5,250 commission right?


=A2*0.25+(A3-A2)*1.25

Where A2=Quota and A3=Sales

Assuming your quota is in A4 and his actual sales are in B4 ...

=IF(B4>=A4,A4*0.25+(B4-A4)*1.25,0)

It may not be dollars - it may be units/widgets etc...
