Ok I need something that basicly does the same thing as the EXACT worksheet function but on an unlimited number of arguments.

I have a row of approx 15 numeric values. I need a formulat that will look at those values and return FALSE if they are not all equal. True if they are all equal.

A1 A2 A3 A4.... Result
1 2 1 1 FALSE

A1 A2 A3 A4.... Result
1 1 1 1 True

I found the exact function but it only allows 2 arguments.
any thoughts?

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
I knew it was going to be an array formula... the logic on those things throws me for a loop sometimes. I understand them when I read them but I have a problem when I have to create one form scratch.

Thanks

If the values you're trying to evaluate are always numbers, shouldn't the average of the range of numbers always equal any of the numbers in the range?

The other formulas work, but if you don't want to use an array you can use something like:

=IF(AVERAGE(A1:A15)=A1,TRUE(),FALSE())

may be this

=COUNTIF(A1:A15,A1)=COUNTA(A1:A15)
