Calculations On Large List Of Data With Duplicates
Nov 4, 2012
(Excel for Mac 2011). The size of my data means am crashing by usual methods of sorting - I need a formula for this rather than pivot tables.
I have a list of c. 40,000 rows. Col A is client name (largely different but some duplicates); Col B is Policy type (eg Home, Motor, Travel) and Col C is earnings on that policy (eg -60). An example would be:
Name
Policy Type
Earnings
Johnson
Home
[Code]...
So I need to figure out (via a formula) two things:
1) How to count duplicate names (eg appearing 3x = 1 customer; appearing 2x = 2 customers; appearing 1x = 1 customer)
2) How to build a simple table to show the relationship between policies. This would have Motor, Home, Travel, Motorcycle as columns and also as rows - the data would then be how many policies and in each cross point?
I have tried just working the data using Countifs etc, but as soon as I apply it to the whole data set the machine freezes, presumably due to its size

I have a list of IDs that recurs over a time period. It consists of a Start Data an ID Number. These IDs recur over and over again through one month with different start dates.
See Below:
Date ID
12/1/2013 10:00:00 AM 67890
12/6/2013 12:00:30 PM 67890
12/18/2013 06:30:05 AM 67890
From Another List I'd like to pull a max enddate that is within 24 hrs of the start date. There will be multiple end dates. Here is what the other list would look like.
End Date ID
12/1/2013 1:00:30PM 67890
12/6/2013 4:00:45PM 67890
12/18/2013 9:30:00 AM 67890
Seems like using vlookup with the ID as the lookup wouldnt work because it would just pull the first date it found over and over again.

I have a large list of in rows with multiple column headings: ie. Name, date, amount. I need to generate a separate list whereby the rows that correspond to a given criteria are extracted and listed sequentially.
I have attached a simple example to demonsrate what i mean.
in the attached spreadsheet, i have a column of colours, and a column of objects- RED book, BLUE hat, etc.
I'd like the criteria that i type in the green cell (a choice of colour), to generate a list of all the items that match that colour, and be displayed in the orange cells. So, if the green cell says BLUE, the list should pick out the BLUE dog, BLUE hat etc.

I have a large list of data in sheet1. The relevant columns contain a unique identifier (column 'N') and a value of either "True" or "False" in column O. Because I don't want users to have to trawl through hundreds of lines looking for the 'False' entries, I have a macro that copies only those records to Sheet3. In this sheet the user can set the 'False' value to 'true' but I don't know how to return the new value to Sheet2 (possibly for multiple records).

I am facing problem in finding the second large value while my list is having duplicate data.
For Example
my numbers are:-
12,65,45,12,87,90,65,87
if I want to find out the top four value by using the formula:-
=large(A1:A8,{1;2;3;4})
the result is coming like: - 90,87,87,65
instead of this I want the result as: - 90,87,65,45.

In cell G1 I have my snapshot dates header and dates running from G2 to G31. Next to in Column H I have the sold items by Product A.
There are 6 different snapshot dates and I need them to be horizontal with a formula and none duplicated with the largest (newest) date first so I can SUMIF the sold item per date. If I simply pull a LARGE formula it will return 24-05-2014 in all rows is it is the biggest "value".
When I them add new snapshots (biweekly) then the horizontal snapshot line will automatically add the newest dates (i.e. find the largest or newest, the 2nd newest snapshot, the 3rd newest, etc. Hence, in K2 we would have 09-03-2014 with 672 sold items in K3 (via SUMIF), in L3 we would have 18-03-2014 and 7523, in M3 23-03-2014 and 1703, etc.
I'm not sure if I explained it well enough. I'm attaching a file if this makes more sense.

I am looking for the largest TOTAL SCORE in each division, but need to display 3 placings. Current error: If the score is a duplicate, it is repeating that score with the same rider.ALSO - I need to add the 'PLUSES' as part of the tiebreaker (i.e. 940 with 24 pluses would be 1st, 940 with 4 pluses, 2nd...etc)

I have data in the form of a table. For example a list of duplicate names, each of these names have a corresponding date (lease expiry date). The problem is that the duplicate names have varying dates. So the remove duplicates function does not work because i need to remove the duplicate names with the older dates. I want the latest dates to remain behind.
Data Currently: Solution should be:

I have giant excel spreadsheet that I am trying to clean up. I want to make one of the columns (with around 3000 rows and may of them are the same) into a drop down list. However, when I try doing so from the data validation tab, I get duplicates, triplicates, etc. of the same item.

I am attempting to use the LARGE formula to pull the top 3-5 percentages out of a field of 50-100, while using the INDEX/MATCH function to pull the corresponding "descriptor" that is associated with those top 3-5 percentages. (I need to do this across multiple data sets, but I can't get past this 'duplicate' issue) However, I am running into the problem when there are 2 percentages that are identical (WH 14 and WH 16 in pasted text below), then the INDEX/MATCH function only pulls the 1st "descriptor" and doesn't continue down to the Duplicate. how to tell excel to move to the next set of duplicate data and match the 'descriptor' to that data?
I have attached a file that should show what I am trying to do. These are the formulas I am using right now, pulled down into the 3 cells below them to get the top 3.

I have my dummy data, and I have (what I think) is how I want the data to be shown. My friend uses Google Sheets, but I prefer Excel. I am trying to convert the code because I am a stickler for excel. Typically I can convert codes some easily, but this is way beyond me.
For Column A: I want to create a list on sheet 'Setup!' based on ids!D2:D="yes". If that list has duplicate entries, I would like only the first entry to show up, but for the next entries I would like the cell to be blank. (this is important for the next step) For Column C: I want to have the corresponding dates go with the name entry. For Column D: I want to have the notes go with the corresponding date entry. (I believe I can manipulate Column C's code to do Column D myself).
I am also going to upload a data sheet, and an expected results sheet.

I am working on an email marketing project and i have a small problem. I have two different email list. One (List A) is a large list of potential leads. The other (List B) is a list of leads we are not supposed to market to. I need to delete every lead on List A whose email address is also in List B, so that we do not send unwanted emails to our clients.
The best way i have to do this so far is to go through line by line, which is very impractical.
In case it matters here is out list format. Each list has 10,000 + leads. Each lead occupies a row. The row stretches across 13 columns and each column holds a different variable about the lead (names, state, email address).

The sheet has a price list (I attached the sheet). its a width x height(drop) format. If width or height <= minimum width/height then use the minimum listed. if width or height > minimum <=maximum then lookup in table next heightest value. here is the complication. any oversized items are priced as roundup((size -biggest size) / (biggest - second biggest size),0) * ( price of biggest-price of second biggest). so if my widths are
4600 4700 4800
10 25 35
and I am pricing 5050 I would do :-
calculate howmuch its oversize
5050-4800 = 250
Calculate the difference in the last 2 sizes
4800-4700 = 100
Calculate the rounded up multiples
250/100=2.5 rounded up = 3...........

The attached file (a copy of my main one) has a list of our engineers, and what stock they carry. The stock parts are the 64, 65, 66... numbers.
I need to create a list from this (as underneath the main table), for all instances where there is a 'Y' in the columns next to each engineer. So if an engineer has 3x pieces of stock, they need to appear in the list 3x times. If they have 1x piece of stock, they appear in the list once.

I have a list of data which looks like this
Column B
Name
---------
Jones, Bob
Jones, Bob
Jones, Bob
Smith, Mike
Smith, Mike
Smith, Mike
Calai, Dave
Calai, Dave

What I want to do is take the entire list and create a distinct list that I can use in a named range then use a validation list to have a drop down within a different tab.

I have a very large numbered list in MS Word, in the following style:
1. Animals
1.1 Mammals
1.1.1 Dogs
1.1.1.1 Beagles
1.1.1.2 Pugs
1.1.2 Cats
1.1.3 Elephants
1.2 Fish
1.2.1 Cod
...and so on.
I am trying to bring this data into Excel (2007) but in a way so that:
"Animals" goes into column A.
"Mammals" and "Fish" go into column B (in their own cells, in different rows).
"Dogs" and "Cats" go into column C.
"Beagles" and "Pugs" go into column D...
and so on.
The idea is to have each line in a different row, but have the columns serve more or less the same function that the tab indents do when looking at it in Word. (I'm trying to create a "breadcrumbs" style list for each line item). I've tried using tabs as a delimiter for importing text into word, but it doesn't seem to recognize Word's tabs when applied through a numbered list.

I am trying to do is create a list from a large table (see attached). I have 2 columns (A and B) listing 'Asset' and 'Area' and then 2 rows (1 and 2) listing 'type of task' and 'task'. This forms a table with entries in the cells (from C3 onwards) denoting frequency of each task at each location, i.e. daily, monthly, 6 monthly and annual. This gives me quite a large table which is quite confusing. Can I create a formula to sort all the daily activities which will give me a list of the 4 corresponding properties 'country', 'location' (in columns A and B) and 'type of task', 'task' (in Rows 1 and 2)? Then do the same for the different frequencies populated in the table, 'monthly', '6 monthly' and 'annual' ???

I need to setup a macro that will search for a keyword in a list with about 21000 rows. When the macro finds the keyword it cuts the row out and moves it to another sheet. I'm having a few problems
1. I don't know how to make the function search until it can't find the keyword anymore, then move on to the next word
2. I can't get it to select what it finds it finds the cell but I don't know how to select that cell once its found.
Sub Search()

Dim keyword As String
Dim x, y, z As Long
For x = 1 To 53
Sheets("Test1").Select
Range("A" & x).Select
keyword = Selection.........

We collect loan payments for 36 months from customers.
Column A lists 1000+ customers.
Column J lists the date we received payment 1 ... Column Q lists the amount we received on payment 1.
Column R lists the date we received payment 2 ... Column Y lists the amount we received on payment 2.
Column Z lists the date we received payment 3 ... Column AG lists the amount we received on payment 3.
This repeats for all 36 payments.
New customers are loaded in each month, so be aware that Column J, Column R, Column Z (and so on) have dates from 2011 and 2012 and 2013.
We'd like to create a list of all customers that have not made a payment for the current month as of a certain day (say the 12th). So this month, on January 12th, we'd like to search our data for all customers that don't have a payment listed between January 1st - January 12th.

I have sales data in columns, the right most column has values in it.
If I filter the data using the standard Filter, I can add only filtered records by using SUBTOTAL(9, filtered_list) and this gives me the answer.
How can I find the 2nd largest or second smallest ONLY from the filtered data without using a Pivot table?

I have a table of sales by month per account. Each account has an associated country, but there may be many duplicates of each country per month.
I want to create a formula which indexes the country field and gives me the country with the highest total sum for a specified date range. I'd like to be able to drag the formula down and have the country with the highest sales, then the second highest, and third highest, and so-on. Column ranges are specified below.

As a complete novice....I want to:
1. Create a list of 3 different types of projects
2. Write three different types of calculations that should be undertaken dependent on the type of project. Each will be in a separate worksheet.
3. Make sure once I've checked the project type I apply the right calculations that match the project type
4. Summarise the results of the calculations against each of the projects
Can I do this just in excel or do I need to use macros?

I have 2 sheets - one called 'Lookup' that has a table of recipes in the rows and ingredients in the columns. The cross reference of each is the required quantity of that ingredient, if any (obviously..). Both rows and columns are sorted alphabetically.
In the second sheet - Recipe - I have a subset of the recipes (e.g. 'Cakes') along with the applicable subset of ingredients. I've input these by hand, so I assume they can be referenced directly in the function. What I need to do is grab the quantity out of the table for each recipes ingredient. E.g. A6 will have the recipe 'Jamrolypoly' and H1 will have the ingredient 'Jam'. H6 needs to return the value from the table in Lookup.
I'm still (very) new to this but looking around I found the following which seemed to describe the function I am after:
=VLOOKUP(H1, Ingredients, MATCH(A6, Ingredients, 0))
(Ingredients is the name of the table in the Lookup sheet)
I then need to be able to use the returned values in separate equations on sheet 2 to work out costs. This bit I've done already but I've heard that some of the methods of data retrieval return 'N/A' if there is no value, and that would not allow any subsequent calculations using the value.

Here is the deal I have 4 columns. Each line gives you the following information:
The Id is the record number, Code_Name is a code for each Fox in the study, date and area is a sub area in a bigger grid. Basically I have an area divided by squares and every time a marked fox enters in one of my squares a new line in the data is created. What I won’t to know is if a fox when in my area of study will return to the same squares or not.
ID
CODE_NAME
Date
Area
Logical
116
SSS1
02-Jan-09
1A1
273
RRR1
02-Jan-09
2A2
2959
BBB1
02-Jan-09
1B1
2959
What I’m trying to achieve is a 5th column were ill get a logical value of TRUE or FALSE if, for each fox in the next available record a fox went back to the same square or not.
So if you check for the fox RRR1 I have 2 records one in 2 of January in area 1A1 and a second in 7 of January in the same area. For the Fox BBB1 you will see that she was always in different areas and for CCC1 she only came back to one square.
The problem is I have over 400 fox’s and 12000 records and I’m trying to get a way of doing it automatically.
