This week we are recognizing, Sirkull!

Sirkull has been a member of POI Factory for over seven years.

He’s part of the group of members we have who post frequent updates to their files throughout the year.

This year he’s made 13 updates to the Best Western file, 8 to his Dollar Tree file and most recently 10 updates to his Free Talk file.

Thanks Sirkull, we appreciate your dedication to keeping us up-to-date!

perhaps

Sirkull's greatest contribution was the original formula to allow a user to change the alert speed on speed cameras. Over the years the formula morphed when the Factory started including speed limits in KPH with some more than 3 digits.

For those that may have missed it, here's the version that adds 5 to the given limit:
=IF(ISERR(FIND("Speed",C1)),C1,(LEFT(C1,FIND("Speed",C1)+5)&"@"&IF(ISERR(MID(C1,(FIND("Speed",C1))+5,(FIND("-",C1)-2)-(FIND("Speed",C1)+5))+5),0,(MID(C1,(FIND("Speed",C1))+6,(FIND("-",C1)-2)-(FIND("Speed",C1)+5))+5))&RIGHT(C1,LEN(C1)-(FIND("-",C1)-2))))
