Array Formula- Remove Blank Cells
Feb 2, 2008
I have spreadsheet that displays many blank cells. I would like all the information from this sheet (example below) displaying on another spreadsheet but without the blank cells.
On the example below I've shown how I want my sheet3 to look. (Cells B19:I22)
The sheet where I want to remove the blanks is Sheet2 B2:AE367
Is this possible using array formulas or macro?

Lets say I have a column, and i have some dates in that column. between each date entry are blank cells, an undetermined ammount.
ie:
------------
column1
------------
(blank)
1/1/2007
(blank)
(blank)
(blank)
2/5/2007
(blank)
(blank)
3/7/2007
(blank)
... etc ...
I would like some type of array formula, that could
agegrate that whole column into a new column, removing the blank cells.
so the new column would be:
--------
Column2
--------
1/1/2007
2/5/2007
3/7/2007
I was thinking something like... but this doesnt get rid of the blanks...
(this is using google spreadsheet, but ARRAYFORMULA, is the same as hitting "CTRL-ENTER" - in excel.
=ARRAYFORMULA(if(isnumber(A9:A17),A9:A17,0))

s/s is 325501 rows deep. Down one column are values but these are seperated by blank cells.
I need to omit the blank cells so that all the values appear together, but keep them in the same formation (not sorted).

I'm working with fragmented text inserts within my worksheet.
How can I make this:
,..A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P...
1,.............. Cell filled with text
2,.................................................Cell filled with text
3,.................................Cell filled with text
4,.........Cell filled with text
5,.................................................Cell filled with text
6,.......................Cell filled with text
7,.......................Cell filled with text
8,.......................Cell filled with text
9,...........................................Cell filled with text
look like this:
,..A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K,L,M,N,O,P...
1,Cell filled with text
2,Cell filled with text
3,Cell filled with text
4,Cell filled with text
5,Cell filled with text
6,Cell filled with text
7,Cell filled with text
8,Cell filled with text
9,Cell filled with text
Basically, I'm trying to create a macro that will remove the blank indented cells of each row, and return the cell (with text) to column A.

I have a column of cells, some contain text and some do not. The cells which contain txt or are left blank could change on a daily basis.
I'd like Excel to look at the column of cells which contain the data and populate the information into a list on another worksheet without the blank cells, can I do this?
How it looks now: Sheet 1, cells A1:A6
Henry
blank
blank
James
blank
Bob
What would be sweet: Summary data on Sheet 2, cells A1:A3
Henry

In my current sheet, I have a button which pastes the contents of the user's clipboard into cell A20. The data that is being pasted is a simple, single-column range of data that may or my not contain blank cells. When this button is clicked, the user's clipboard should already have data.
Some of these pasted ranges may go from A20:A40, A20:A60, or even A20:A73. The point is, the length of the pasted information is variable.
I am looking for VBA code which can look at the recently pasted range in A20:AX, find blank cells, and remove them. Here is my current code (very simple), which is only the paste function:
VB:
Sub admin_btnPASTE()
' paste_align Macro
' pastes data
On Error Goto Whoa
[Code]....

I have a column of contacts. Each contact has data spread out over many rows, most of which are blank. I would like all of the data spread out through the rows to be in one cell, delineated by commas (so I can import into another program).
Concatenating the cells works except that I end up with 20 commas for two strings of info.
Just so you understand I may have this:
Mary red blue yellow purple
Rob blue purple
Trey yellow
and I want it to look like this
Mary red, blue, yellow, purple
Rob blue, purple
Trey yellow
How should I go about this?

I have the following array formula that works. I am trying to modify it so that on cells where there is no data, the value which appears (#NUM) changes to a "Blank". I am stuck on how to do it.
The array formula is:
=INDEX($C$2:$C$26,SMALL(IF($B$2:$B$26=$B$32,ROW($B$2:$B$26)-ROW($B$2)+1),ROWS($C$32:C32)))

I have a list that I need to move to another column without spaces. I have it moving without spaces but it is only one item over and over again. I am using Excel 2010 and that may be my issue. I have attached the exact worksheet and formula.

I am trying to use the ARRAY.JOIN function as recommended by Domenic in previous posts. I need to output a single column of values from a 10 x 10 grid that does not have values in every cell.
(I would also like to eliminate any blank cells from the final column.)
I can only get ARRAY.JOIN to output the first value of whatever range I select, not a column of values.

I am trying to use the ARRAY.JOIN function as recommended by Domenic in previous posts.

I can only get ARRAY.JOIN to output the first value of whatever range I select, not a column of values.
how to properly execute that function. One earlier comment was that I was not specifying criteria. I'm not sure from the description and help section of "morefunc" as to what those criteria specs are, other than specifying the whole array. I am attaching a test file with the 10x10 grid & some missing values in A1:J10. Cell L1 has the ARRAY.JOIN function with the entire grid specified, but the output is only the first cell of the grid.

Assume you have a rectangular range. Say A1:M18. There are values in some random cells (any number of cells) within the range. The rest of cells are blank. In cell M19 (ie cell below the bottom right corner of the range), I need a excel function that returns the nearest (ie physical location) non blank cell value. I have searched the internet for weeks. The closest formula is the following (see below) but it is flawed as it returns zero if there are values in rows below the row of the nearest cell with non blank...and also zero if there is value in a column greater than the column of the nearest cell with non blank.
Closest formula so far:
INDEX(A1:M18,LARGE(IF(ISBLANK(A1:M18),"",ROW(A1:M18)),1)-ROW(A1:M18)+1,LARGE(IF(ISBLANK(A1:M18),"",COLUMN(A1:M18)),1)-COLUMN(A1:M18)+1).
And the function should be relative not absolute as the range can be extended..but the location of the formula remain same relative to the array size. (ie. always at below the right bottom cell).
NOTE: Ignore the special case where two non blank cells are the nearest. That will not happen.

I require a formula to remove all text and spaces from a cell, reporting back only the single digit number that is contained within.
A1 - Data to be manipulated (e.g. options look like "2UE", "UE2", "4P", "5 TW")
A2 - Result with all text and spaces removed (e.g. "2", "2", "4", "5")

I am creating a tracking spreadsheet where i can toggle between months (attached). It returns data properly when I select January or February from the yellow highlighted dropdown list. However, when i choose March, it returns 1/0/1900 because no data has been entered for March (table array) on the AAAG tab. How do I write the formula to return a blank cell on the summary sheet when no information has been entered into the table array yet?

If I have an assortment of odd and even values in range a1:j100, using the Array formula {=If(Mod(a1:j100,2),"",a1:j100)} will clear out all the odds, leaving the evens.
Is there a way I can add to this formula to color the qualifying cells (odds in this instance)? I know Conditional formatting is perfectly suited for the job but I am looking for a departure from this.

{=AVERAGE(IF(('Sales Reports'!$A$1:$A$5000=$A3)*('Sales Reports'!$C$1:$C$5000=$C$1),'Break Reports'!$D$1:$F$5000))}
and am copying it to other cells using this
Sub copyformula()
With Sheets("Sheet2")
.Range("B3:B5000").Formula = .Range("B3").Formula
End With
End Sub
It does the copy but removes the { and } thus rendering the formula useless to me. How can I accomplish this task and keep the formula as an array formula?
I tried to drag the formula down and recorded it as a macro but when it runs it takes far to long.

Essentially I have inherited a spreadsheet which is crammed full of complex array formulas.
No problem in itself as I understand array formulas pretty well (or so I think!). My problem is that when i want to ammend some of these, i cannot easily see what range I need to highlight in order to edit them i.e. I obviously cant do a single cell as its part of an array. I hope I have made myself clear?
So my question is this.
When the cursor is sat in a cell that is part of an array formula, how can I easily find out ( ideally by the array formula range being highlighted in (say) red ) what cells are included in the array formula?
Would conditional formating do the job?

I have a large spreadsheet, within which i am trying to remove commas from all cells. I get the error 'formula is too long' when I carry out the search. Some of the cells are >1024 characters in length and contain dates, text etc.

i've got a pricing spreadsheet that's doing my head in. hopefully someone can help me with my latest formula issue.
when i expor the file as a pdf, you loose the column names. so...
a b c d e f g h
part ID qty 1 price qty 2 price qty 3 price discount price
i want to calculate the discount price as a perctange of either b/c or d/e or f/g groupinsg (qty break & price for that paricular qty amt). The problem is b/c are populated for all rows. some parts have a secdonary price break (d/e) and some have a tiertary price break (f/g).
I want to take the percentge discount off the high qty price break. So if f/g is populated I want to take it from that. If it's not populated, then e/f. and Only if f/g & e/f are NOT populated do i want to take the discount from b/c. is there a formula i can insert into H to do this?

I have an array formula that takes in a bunch of dates and returns the next date that is not in the past:
{=MIN(IF($N$4:$N$28<TODAY(),999999,$N$4:$N$28))}
This works great, but I'm wondering if there is a way I can write it to work on cells that are not adjacent to each other. For example, can I have it operate on only cells N4, N7, N15, and N22? Is there an easy way to do this?

I have a long list (>1000) of increasing temperatures in column A. I use an array formula, {=MAX(A3:A1029-A2:A1028)} to find the largest change between two successive values. What I need to do then is obtain the two values that give rise to that difference (for instance, they might be in A678 and A679). I can't figure out a formula for this.
I can manage it if I insert a "difference" column in B, and use:
=INDEX($A$2:$B$1029,MATCH(MAX($B$2:$B$1029),$B$2:$B$1029,0)-1,1)
=INDEX($A$2:$B$1029,MATCH(MAX($B$2:$B$1029),$B$2:$B$1029,0),1)
but I'd rather keep the number of columns to a minimum.

I have been trying to import CSV files into Excel on my new computer. I previously had a windows 7 system with office 2007. I have now moved across to a windows 8 system with office 2013. The problem I am faced with is the CSV files which I imported without problems on my old system don't seem to work on the new one. The excel spreadsheet shows the numbers, but when I try and use any formula, the cell comes up with 0, as if there is nothing in the cell. When using my old system, it shows that it is a picture that needs to be converted to text, but I cannot find out how to sort this out in Windows 8. I have even tried various versions of office, 2007, and 2010 on the windows 8 system with the same problem. I have tried all the things I have found online, checking the regional settings and those type of things.

=(SUMPRODUCT((D6:D300="a")*(F6:F300="MATT")*(J6:J300)))
Count all A's that are also Matt and add up the corresponding figs in J. If use the formula above to 179 (where there are values in the cells) then I get the answer 170 which is correct. Currently with the it set to review all cells from 6 to 300 which includes blanks then it returns #value therfore I assume it is not coping with the blank cells.
