Comps - Column Seperators
Separating columns is an important aspect of having a nicely formatted comps header. I have seen a few ways to format comps headers:
- Use single accounting underline - problem is that if you have a non-text number, it won't work
- Use thick white borders
- Use blank columns - dragging formulas across would be painful
Personally, I like using single accounting underlines and when I input years I always put (E) or (A) at the end.
What is your preference?
Used to underline with single-accounting, recently switched to thick white borders.
2 rows
Top row: Values are regular dates, e.g. 1/1/18. This enables the use of eomonth, sumifs, etc. Number format is yyyy"P" or whatever.
Second row immediately below it: Change height to something small. Alt H B P, then Alt H B M, add white, thick (second from the bottom-right option) borders on the left and the right of the cell.
Why do this instead of just single accounting underline? If the value in the cell is just a value, then single accounting underline will only underline the value and not the entire cell. This won't.
