Can Vlookups Cope With Spelling Errors
Oct 8, 2009I have a number of Vlooks set up to reference cost information set up against Names in various workbooks.
The problem is wherever a name is mis-spelt then the lookup fails to match the values.

Apr 1, 2008I've got the following macro which I used to copy and transpose an array of data from a 'working' workbook (data in columns) to a 'summary' workbook (data in rows). This worked great in excel 2003 as I used all the columns available (ie. up to IV).
I've run into a problem now I'm using Excel 2007 as there are now significantly more columns. The macro is now trying to copy and transpose every single column in the workbook and is taking a ridiculous amount of time.
How would I adjust this macro so that it only copied a set number of columns? I'd like it to copy only up to column ATV in working.
Sub test()
Dim i As Integer, n As Long
Sheets("summary").Columns("b:iv").Clear
For i = 7 To Columns.Count Step 3
n = n + 1
With Sheets("working").Cells(8, i).Resize(11)
Sheets("summary").Cells(n + 2, "b").Resize(.Columns.Count, .Rows.Count) _
.Value = Evaluate("if(transpose(working!" & .address & ")=0,"""",transpose(working!" & .Address & "))")
End With
Next
End Sub
Adapting This To Cope With Partial Matches

Move Correct Spelling To A Another Range
Oct 19, 2006Let's assume I've got a list of 100 words (most spelled incorrectly and located in cells A1:A100) and I want to place only the words spelled correctly into Column B. For example, if 10 words are spelled correctly, they should go in cells B1:B10.
I start with the first word in cell A1 and move it to cell B1 to be spellchecked. If it's spelled correctly, I keep it in cell B1 and move the word in cell A2 into cell B2 to be spellchecked. (If A1 is spelled incorrectly, I move the word in A2 into B1, thereby discarding the misspelled word.)
Can I code this so that when the spellchecker box opens (i.e. word is spelled wrong) it will close automatically (e.g. [cancel]) and move to the next word?

I having trouble getting this IF statement to function properly. The Bold section is the part that will not function properly. I have checked all the spelling, spaces, but for some reason it wont display properly.
Based on the above is there a way to make this a type of lookup?
Im at wits end with all the ifs.
VBA Macro Code To Check Spelling In Range
Jul 15, 2009Is there any way to use formula or VBA to highlight cells which contain the correct spelling?
For example i have columns A filled with words in each cell but need to highlight which ones have the correct spelling, as there are more with incorrect so i need to visually see the correct spelling.

Validation Data: Stop Typos & Spelling Mistakes
Oct 29, 2006I have a spreadsheet that I'm using for a college football pool. We have almost 100 players, and have it set up for each player to pick up to 20 games each week. There is a sheet for each week of the season. Now, I copy each players picks from a message board and paste them under that players name. My problem is, that some people don't spell the teams correctly or abbreviate when they were told not too. This leads to them missing the points because excel sees it as a wrong entry. What I wantto accomplish is setting up some way to have excel verify the spelling is correct when the players entries are pasted in the sheet. I would also like it to auto-correct errors it finds...say a player types in Ohio St. but the winner is entered as Ohio State...This would be seen as a wrong entry for Ohio St. so I want excel to recognize it and correct it. Also simple spelling errors as well...

Mar 26, 2008I have an array (partArray) that contains a number of parts that I need to get values for. The part array is populated (Thanks Norie!) by bring in the contents of a cell and splitting them into array elements. I then run them through a trim loop to remove the white spaces. Up till here thefunction works fine.
I created a partRSL array to hold the matching value for each part ( I know i can use multidimensional arrays but i dont understand them yet and need to deliver a prototype to get some approval from senior mgmt ).
The idea is that as we run through each element of the partArray we will vlookup the corrseponding value and assign it to the appropriate element of the partRSL.
When I use the function below it returns a #value. I think that the element of the partArray i want to lookup is not being used as a string and so the lookup is failing.
As a test to see that this is working i have the function returning the value of element 0 in the partRSL array as it is distinct from the rest. (It should be returning a number (integer)
Function FindAlt(option_address)
' Initialise the array
Dim partArray() As String
Dim partRSL() As String
Dim i As Integer
'Populate Array by spliting the comma separated contents of the select cell and assigning each to an array element
partArray = Split(option_address, ",")
'This works fine
For i = LBound(partArray) To UBound(partArray)
partArray(i) = Trim(partArray(i))
Count = Count + 1

UDF - Combining VLookups
Dec 17, 2012I am trying to write a UDF function where I lookup if a value is on a range on different sheet. I would like to be able to write what I want the result to be in the function. I also hard coded that the function need 3 range and 3 results, but I know it is possible the make the number of component vary depending on what the user writes. I would like my function to do that.
Here is what I have written so far :
VB:
Function find_para2(var As String, rng As Range, result1 As String, rng2 As Range, result2 As String, rng3 As Range, result3 As String)
If WorksheetFunction.IsNA(WorksheetFunction.VLookup(var, rng.Address, 1, False)) = False Then
find_para = find_para & result1 & ", "

Jul 6, 2006I am having trouble using an if statement with a vlookup.
The first calculation i am trying to do is calculate the cost of storage for the product, each product (3 of them) has it's own charging matrix which i have turned into a table on another sheet and therefore want to use the vlookup to return the correct values (meaning that i can change the underlying table and not have to change the formula each time a price change occurs), the sheet calculates the dwell time between entering and leaving, if dwell time is less than 7 days the charge is the number of days * products <7 days rate, if it is >7days then the charge is 7 days at the products lower rate and then the balance at the higher rate. I have a formula that is a longwinded way of calculating it for one size only but would like to add vloopup so that dependent on the units size the storage is calculated.
I have attached a sheet as an example, you will see the data table is quite large and as we consume extra services i plan to use a tick box to indicate use and then add this to a running subtotal again through an if and vlookup.

Vlookups And Editing Those Fields
Jul 7, 2009I am trying to create an asset management database using excel, and would like to be able to add custom notes to each entry (index) so as time goes on, I can refresh my memory what we have done with a particular item. I have attached the current file I have created.
Essentially, when I use the GREEN drop down menu in the top right, I want it to display the notes/comments that I enter in the rightmost column of the data, as the attached file illustrates.
However, I want to be able to hide that rightmost column and be able to edit the data from the new area (white space) it is being displayed in, however as I have it set up right now, if I edit the cell, it edits the forumla and poof goes all the comments and the formula becomes messed up.

VLookups And Filling Weekdays Only
Jul 4, 2012I have done a V-lookup that auto populates my project report doc with different lead times/dates depending on the product selected. Problem I have it that the dates being pulled through are for all calendar dates and not just working week days.
I know you can select a selection of dates and fill as week days however all of the dates on my primary sheet either have the project start date minus lead time formula or the vlook up formula in it. Filling week days overwrites any of this.
VLookups With Multiple Results
Apr 12, 2013I'm attempting to work with a v-lookup that will have multipe results. In column A of my spreadsheet are invoices numbers and in column B are account numbers. An invoice can have multiple accounts. For example, there are two lines for invoice "ABC", each with a different result in column B (see below)
Invoice Account
ABC Cash
ABC Receivable
My goal is to have the vlookup bring in both values, but in separate rows (see below)
Column A Column B Column C
ABC Cash Receivable
Nested IF Statements Using VLOOKUPs
Dec 13, 2013I'm trying to nest the following:
=IF(VLOOKUP($F6,'Dept location'!$A:$B,2,FALSE)>0,VLOOKUP($F6,'Dept location'!$A:$B,2,FALSE),FALSE)
=IF(VLOOKUP($H6,'Project location'!$C:$K,9,FALSE)>0,VLOOKUP($H6,'Project location'!$C:$K,9,FALSE),FALSE)
=IF(VLOOKUP($V6,'Dept location'!$A:$B,2,FALSE)>0,VLOOKUP($V6,'Dept location'!$A:$B,2,FALSE),FALSE)
To start with, not sure I have the ">0" part correct in the above IF statements. That expression is meant to be asking it: Is the VLOOKUP finding valid data (result #N/A)?
Next, comes the nesting part. If the VLOOKUP isn't finding valid data (result = #N/A), then I want it to move on to the next IF statement.
I have 3 different columns I want it to look at; hence, the 3 IF statements. In the end, if none of the three IF statements results in any valid data, I want it to give the result "Research".
Adding Multiple VLookups Together?
Jul 31, 2014I'm having issues with a formula that I am using to add three vlookups together. The problem is that there may or may not be data in one of the columns I am looking up with the vlookup. I am looking up hold times for reps each week then adding them together to get a monthly sum. This formula works when data is available for all 4 weeks. When I have a rep that started in the middle of the month there isn't data for all 4 weeks so I want Excel to just treat that as a 0 or Null, Currently it just provides a 0.0 for the whole thing instead of adding what is there.
=(IFERROR(VLOOKUP([@Name],Sheet2!A:H,2,0),0))+(IFERROR(VLOOKUP([@Name],Sheet2!A:H,4,0),0))+(IFERROR(VLOOKUP([@Name],Sheet2!A:H,6,0),0))+(IFERROR(VLOOKUP([@Name],Sheet2!A:H,8,0),0))
Vlookups And Conditional Formatting.
Dec 13, 2007I would like some conditional formatting to happen when the vlookup is true AND false.
