I am looking to create a formula to add together the two highest values of a list of 10 numbers.
I know you can use something like large(a1,a10,1)+large(a1,a10,2) if numbers are in an array but my problem is numbers arent
they are in random positions along a row....
I am using the following formula:
=IFERROR(INDEX(drange,SMALL(IF(AND(qrange="SH",trange>30),ROW()-6),ROW(A1))),"")
to return the name (drange) of a person who was visited by "SH" (qrange), more than 30 days ago (trange).
There are faults in my formula, and if I'm honest I don't entirely understand it !
I need to return all of the names of people who were visited by "SH" more than 30 days ago. So I need the next value, and the next which is also over 30, by copying the formula down to the next cell and the next. My problem is that I get the first value (which is correct) and then the next ones are blank.
To make matters worse, the first value I get is only correct if i DON'T enter it as an array. If I do enter it as an array, I get the first row of the spreadsheet.
Using Excel 2003
I am using Excel 2003. I have attached a data file here. getting the values in Q3, R3 and S3.
Scenario:
Q1 has the number = 1. So I want the cell Q3 to return 2/11/2013 as that is the cell corresponding to the Item1 (value specified in P3) with the value 1(value specified in Q1) in the cell. Basically, I need the date corresponding to cell which has the value of Q1 for the value of P3.
Similarly, R2 must have the value 2/12/2013 and S3 must have the value 2/14/2013 returned.
I need a formula that would return the sum of the largest 3 numerical values out of a range of values, i.e. ignoring the lowest values in the range.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a row with 30 cells and each cell has a different value. i want to count the highest 15 cells of those 30, so the sum of the total only counts the largest 15 digits.
View 2 Replies View Relatedis there a simple way to sum the ten largest (or smallest) values? I just can't think of any formula to do the job, and a filter isn't an appropriate permanent solution.
How would I find the four rows with the largest value in a defined column and then export them to a separate worksheet.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have lists of numbers in a columns and would like to elliminate high outlier values in each column. Each list is different so there's no way to just set a max value and say that any value above it is an outlier. What I'd like to do is to average the top 5 or so max values for example, and then say that any vale above this average is an outlier. So a formula such as =average (max1,max2,max3,max4,max5) would work if it's possible to derive max1, max2 and so on. Or maybe there's a different way of accomplishing this?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 3 columns. In 1st there is a name of the product.In 2nd there are different types of product (6 in total) and in the 3rd column a figure attributed to the correspondend type of product. I need to create a summary for every type. For this I want to show the 5 largest figures(based on the name of product) for every type.
Like this:
AAA GK 40
BBB CD 50
CCC FD 55

I have a work document with multiple rows of information. In each row I need to locate the maximum and minimum values. (The rows aren't long - there are about 10 values in each). I then would like to turn the font of the lowest value in each row red - and the font of the highest value in each row blue. I would also like to be able to skip blank or unimportant rows.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a table showing interest levels in training courses from a group of schools, eg:
English Maths Science
School1 3 4 2
School2 7 1 0
School3 3 2 5
I want to identify the column heading for the first, second and third most popular courses. ie for School1 the most popular course is Maths, second most popular is English and so on.
I have tried using the OFFSET function, which worked if I provided the cell location of the required value. I then looked at the ADDRESS function to provide the cell location: eg For School2 find the 2nd most popular course:
=ADDRESS(ROW(A3),COLUMN(data?)+MATCH(LARGE(B3:B5,2),B3:B5,0)-1)
But I have got stuck with what I should enter for COLUMN(data?) as I do not know in which column the second largest value is.
I am sure Excel has the required functionality.
I've got four tables with negative and positive values and want to determine the largest magnitude of a subset of four values within those four tables. In other words if the largest magnitude is negative I want the negative value of the four subsets or vise-versa.
I've tried the following but got an error stating it was too long:
= IF(ABS(VLOOKUP(table1)) = MAX(ABS(VLOOKUP(table1)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table2)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table3)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table4))), VLOOKUP(table1), IF(ABS(VLOOKUP(table2)) = MAX(ABS(VLOOKUP(table1)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table2)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table3)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table4))), VLOOKUP(table2), IF(ABS(VLOOKUP(table3)) = MAX(ABS(VLOOKUP(table1)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table2)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table3)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table4))), VLOOKUP(table3), VLOOKUP(table4))))
The repeating line needs attention in my mind:
MAX(ABS(VLOOKUP(table1)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table2)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table3)), ABS(VLOOKUP(table4)))
I have a large list of students (Col a,b) who do several sports (up to 10) each, which are arranged as sport name (Col c) followed by score (col d), repeated on pairs of columns for the other 9 sports.
I need a macro to find the 4 highest scoring sports for each student in turn and to highlight the score and sport cells. I have tried to find permutations using the LARGE function but I cannot see how I can do this.
There should be a formula to extract the largest values and its corresponding values. For example, if column
Products Costs
A1 Pen 200
A2 Pencil 125
A3 Radio 670
A4 Apple 1500
A5 Xbox 222
A6 TV 100
The desired outcome
Products Cost
Apple 1500
Radio 670
Xbox 222
Pen 200
Pencil 125
TV 100
The second goal is extracting the top 3 largest values using a formula.
Sample file is attached for your convenience. Desired outcome is in GREEN.
I have a list of eastings and northings for specific incidents, then in a seperate sheet I have a list of eastings and northings for postcodes.
What I want to end up with, is which postcode the incidents are in!
So it means getting Excel to find the closest match of two values to two other values and return a corresponding value.
Here's what it looks like!

I have used several IF and AND functions in the past in order to check to see if 2 values = true and return a third.
(for example =IF(AND(A1>10,B1<20),C1,"")
However I can't seem to figure out the senario below.
I have 2 coulmns, Column A has dates and Column B has a numeric value
I need to check to see if column A falls between 2 dates and returns the sum of column B
For example if have 100 rows and 10 of those rows have dates that fall between 06/01/09 and 07/01/09 then add up column b for those 10 rows and return the value.
i have a formula that looks up data from a pivot table....the pivot relates to a data request log and a pricing request log - both separate. the data request log and pricing request log includes data and pricing activities....some are only data, some only pricing, a few are both - each activity has its own unique request number - if both data and pricing then the request number will be the same
so the pivot looks up a request number eg F1.....it counts how many actions there are for this request number (eg request F1 may have 6 actions) and displays this number. eg F1 data only request....6 actions.....no pricing activities/request...the pivot will display 6 under the column Data but then returns the value #N/A under the column pricing if no actions/request found for pricing...i want this to return "blank" if there are no actions/request found under either pricing or data. the formula used is as follows:
under the column named data:
=VLOOKUP(J7,'DATA PIVOT'!A7:D150,3,FALSE)
under the column named pricing:
=VLOOKUP(J7,'PRICING PIVOT'!A7:D150,3,FALSE)
i think that because FALSE is used this returns the value #N/A?
Returning Descending Values
I currently use the following to find the max number is a column:
=MAX($P$4:$P$65536). If I wanted to find the second highest, then the third highest, etc.. how would this be written?
it seems that excel is deciding what type of array this is by evaluating the type of the first cell in each column and applying this type to the rest of the array's column. Problem is that i want all values to be brought in, text and numerical.

I have been able to get the following code to work (which simply returns the start of data on a sheet):
Sub FindDataStart( )
Dim lRow As Long
Dim lColumn As Integer
For lRow = 1 To Rows.Count
For lColumn = 1 To Columns.Count
If Trim( Cells(lRow, lColumn).Value) <> "" Then
Goto EXIST
Else
End If
Next lColumn
Next lRow
EXIST:
Exit Sub
End Sub
Now I want to build on what I have learned so far and from another Sub, I want to call the FindDataStart sub and have it return the row and column # (from where the data starts).
I started by making the following changes to the FindDataStart sub but got stuck
Changed :
Sub FindDataStart( )
To:
Sub FindDataStart( RowNumb As Long, ColNumb As Integer)
I also added the following line to the end of the FindDataStart sub
FindDataStart = (lRow, lColumn)
In the attached example I paste in a report from another system into Sheet2 (rough data layout in example).
In column B in Sheet1 I have tried using Match and Index formulas to try and return only the Local Shipment figures from on Sheet2 for each staff member.
The issue i'm having is that the data in Sheet2 can change based on how long the report is run. There is also no way I can change the way the raw data is set out in Sheet2 as it's an external system.
Basically i'm looking for a formula that isn't locked down to certain cells and can work with data moving up and down columns at different stages. The key data never changes from column A and F in sheet2. But what does change is whether each person has one or both of Sales & Local Shipment data in the reporting. This obviously changes based on what is completed each day.
So I need a formula that matches the persons name in column A in Sheet1 with Column A in Sheet2, then looks for the first mention of 'Local Shipment' below it and returns the cloumn F value which is in the same row as 'Local Shipment'.
I have a set of cells and i want it to return all of the distinct or unique values within that matrix. for example, lets say this table charts how many sales an employee makes in a week.
sun mon tues weds thurs fri sat
john doe 1 0 3 2 3 0 0
jane doe 0 8 0 1 0 7 0
james doe 3 3 2 3 2 1 1
the desired output would be: 0,1,2,3,7,8
I don't want to be copying all of the cells or doing a lot of manipulation - i know i can copy, sort, and get unique values that way - i want a formula where as i plug in values, this field is updated to include all of the distinct or unique values.

Example, the real data is about 38,000 entries. I want to build a query to return the value of Column D (pax count) based on the values of Columns A (ID) and C (Date)

Trying to pull data from one workbook to another using Vlookup.
The worksheet has 7 columns (date, day of week, time or arrival, package, departure time, patron count and group name) I would like to pull all the data for a specific date in a seperate workbook.
I know I require a nested formula but cannot seem to get the variables correct:
I have two tabs (In-Transit) & (AC) column A in both sheet have a "Concatenate" that i copied and pasted and values only and also switch the format to "Text" on both tabs. I do a vlookup
[Code] ......
and it returns the results i want....But then i was thinking due to the volume of data what if the value in column A is found twice on tab "AC".. i wouldn't know with a "Vlookup".
So trying to build a Index/Match formula
[Code] ....
I also returns some good results, but i also get some back as #REF. I also get #NA and both of the formulas and those are valid no matches...
I want to return the proper value from sheet 2 into column C in sheet one. I have the current formula set up as an array but I only get the value that matches the first row in Sheet 2.

I'm using Excel 2003 and am trying to filter a list of values. The list has duplicate values in it. When I use Filter>Advanced Filter and select "Unique records only" the filter only eliminates some of the duplicates. If there are 4 values of 100, it may filter 2 of them or none at all. Ultimately I'm trying to end up with a list of values with no repeats.
I'm trying to get a value to return based upon three criteria, sales rep, compensation plan and calculation method.
For each sales rep (there are 20 reps), there is an option for one of five comp plans and for every comp plan, there are six calculation methods (these six methods are the same for every one of the five comp plans).
I know I need to use the Indes(Match()) set-up, but I'm having the darndest time figuring out how to set up the source matrix to do this right.
