Excel - Time formula - between - excel

My formula does not work. I have a time in and time out. I want a formula that will tell me if the employee will be there during that time.
Below is my formula
=IF(AND(C2>=$D$16,C2<$E$16),"Yes","No")
I want a formula to be able to give me the result in the attached picture.
Thank you for your help.

Try using MEDIAN(starttime, endtime, time) like this:
=IF(C2=MEDIAN($D$16,$E$16,C2),"Yes","No")
In this example, C2 is the cell with the time you wish to examine.

Automatically change cell value based on the current date

Basically, I'm having a table where A1 shows the status (active / inactive). C1 has a date and when that date comes (lets say it's tomorrow), the value of A1 should change from active to inactive. Can someone please help out with this one. I tried playing around with =INDEX formula but can't get it to work. Thanks in advance.
try this formula:
=IF(C1>TODAY(),"Inactive","Active")
Use an if() statement like so:
=if(C1<now(),"Active","Inactive")
You may need to check the formatting of C1 or the cell with the date.

How to display mm:ss format not as a DateTime, without leading zero?

We have a spreadsheet at work, and we use it to keep track of various metrics, a few having to do with call lengths. The spreadsheet has been the same for years, but we now have a call time of 51:59 (mm:ss) which has broken the old format.
I am researching how to make it work as desired, and so far the best solution is to format the cell as [m]:ss and enter the time in the cell as 0:51:59. This gives the outcome desired, and performs all the calculations correctly, except I want to be able to achieve this without the leading zero. Ideally, someone could enter 51:59 into the cell, and it would read 51:59 and not 3119:00.
Does anyone know how to achieve what I am looking for? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am comfortable with macros, so if there is a way to achieve this with a macro that would work, but ideally I am looking for a solution without a macro.
Thank you.
There is no way you can do this. The closest one is the following workaround:
Define cell A1 format as hh:mm and cell B1 format as mm:ss.
Enter formula =A1/60 into B1.
This will display 51:59 in B1 when you type 51:59 into A1.
Unfortunately, A1 text will read not-so-intuitive value after it loses the focus.
The workaround is described here:

Find exact date or nearest date in a range of dates using excel formula

I tried to find the Inv Cost. I used vlookup to used it.
Please refer below image for more details.
As you can see from the sheet1 I'm taking Actual finish date and product number to compare from sheet2 product number & cost date.
The excel formul find the exact date and number display on Inv Cost column. If can't find, Inv Cost should display the nearest date in the range of dates in excel sheet.
But my excel vlookup formul show N/A. my excel formula is below:
=VLOOKUP(B2&A2,Sheet2!C:D,2,FALSE)
Please advise on this.Thanks.
If you wanted to find the nearest date, you would need an array formula like this one
=INDEX(Sheet2!D$2:D$10,MATCH(TRUE,IF(B2=Sheet2!A$2:A$10,ABS(Sheet2!B$2:B$10-A2))=MIN(IF(B2=Sheet2!A$2:A$10,ABS(Sheet2!B$2:B$10-A2))),0))
Must be entered with CtrlShiftEnter
Try changing the last parameter of the VLOOKUP function to TRUE
=VLOOKUP(B2&A2, Sheet2!C:D, 2, TRUE)
Setting it to FALSE looks for an exact match.
However, it gives me a different result from what you're expecting.
For these cases where you have to find the next or previous closest result I preffer, and I think it's the most suitable, using INDEX/MATCH.
The formula would be like this.... try it...
=INDEX('Sheet2'!D2:D5;MATCH(CONCATENATE(B2;A2);'Sheet2'!C2:C5;-1))
Write this formula on sheet1 and scroll down, let me know if it works or not :D

Excel - External Formula

I have some external trading system that creates a formula in excel to show real time stocks, options and strikes. I was trying for few days to link this formula to others cells, but so far unsuccessful.
Cell A1: BBDCC36
Cell B1: =BC|COT!BBDCC36.PEX
What i need:
B1 to be like: =BC|COT!&A1&.PEX
I need some reference to a cell, but i couldnt do it. There is any trick to do that?
Thank you!
Maybe all you are lacking are the "s around the text elements:
="BC|COT!"&A1&".PEX"

Excel add one hour

I have in cel A1 with the following contents:
7:30:43
which is a time.
But now i want to use a formula to add one hour. What is the best way or how can i do this?
=A1+TIME(1,0,0)
Although, maybe this should be posted on Super User.
In cell A1, enter the time.
In cell B2, enter =A1+1/24
This may help you as well. This is a conditional statement that will fill the cell with a default date if it is empty but will subtract one hour if it is a valid date/time and put it into the cell.
=IF((Sheet1!C4)="",DATE(1999,1,1),Sheet1!C4-TIME(1,0,0))
You can also substitute TIME with DATE to add or subtract a date or time.
