I have a sheet of locations that runs left to right. Under each location, their is a contract number (Example: AA, BB, CC...) with a corresponding value two columns to the right (Example: 11, 22, 33).
I can't figure out how to structure a lookup formula that will retrieve the value that corresponds to the contract. Here is an example: example.xlsx
I want to be able to lookup if anywhere in a cell contains a word from a list of words, and then provides an output.
Column G:
VAT payment
HMRC payment
Pay VAT
I have a table on the side that shows:
Column Y Column Z
VATHMRC
HMRC HMRC
ie. If anything in column G matches one of the words in Column Y, then output the Column Z. I have use a Vlookup that works for the first two, as VAT is the first thing, but dont know how to make it work if the key word is in the middle of the cell.
I have a workbook with 2 different types of sheet - 1 containing source data and the others 'collecting' data from the source sheet, depending on what the sheet is for.
For example, the data source contains different pets, their names, ages and their owners.
The other sheets are on a one-per-owner basis.
What I would like to do is use a LOOKUP / MATCH function to lookup the owner name typed in cell A1 of the output sheet and match it with the corresponding owner name(s) on the source sheet. I would then like it to return with each pet and append the results on the sheet accordingly - like below:
John Smith (in cell A1)
Pet - Name - Age
-------------------
Dog - Rover - 3
Goldfish - Tom - 1
Gerbil - Chewit - 4
I get a report each day with a list of issues. the "group" that works the issue and the "priority". Based on these two factors, i need to do a double lookup (vlookup?) to another tab or file to match the priority and group and see what value should be brought back for each lines results. For example, if group1 had a prority3 issue, the lookup would find the value from the other sheet or file and bring back the value and put it at the end of the row where the formula is.
Attached are examples of the sheets.

Source tab contains vital information about some clients.
In the aggregated tab (Cell C10) I created a formula that pulls the Inflows from the source in a very specific array. So for client 1, this works fine. Now, if i copy my formula to the client 2 (Cell C14), it obviously wont go and look in the correct array in my source.
What i need to do is to be able to copy/paste my formula
[Code].....
(from cells C10 to CC10) to cells C14 to CC14, but when copied, the look up array changes to:
Formula: [Code] ....
I will have to fill this formula to at least 100 entries down, so i need to make it work with ease
The good thing is that all look up values in the source increase by a fixed number of rows (12). I tried playing with index/rows formula.. no luck..

At work I have a spread sheet that I used to track material shortages by part number. So in column A of the spread sheet there is a list of part numbers that have shortages, column E contains a list of all sales orders that are affected by the shortage separated by a comma. I am trying to setup a query sheet where I input a sales order and get back a list of parts that are short for that sales order(basically reversing the original list to be by sales order instead of part number). The number of values in column E varies, sometimes a cell will have 1 value, sometimes 20+ and anywhere in between.
Example Sheet:
A
B
C
D
E
123
012
234
789, 567
465
789
890
012
I'm already got a INDEX/MATCH that would show both shortages for sales order 012. But I can not figure out how to get the shortages for 789 or 567.
I need to find the value in cell range A:10 A:242 based on

I'm looking for a formula that I can put in BA2 in a sheet called Data, and copy the formula down the column.
If Data AE2 is blank, Data BA2 should be blank.
If there is a number in AE2, the formula should look for the matching number in another sheet called Index, in Index column G. The matching number can be in any row, but will only appear once in the whole column.
For the row number that has the pair, look in Index column AG and copy the value in that cell to Data BA2.

I am using the formula =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP($B8,'Volume Totals'!$A$5:$AH$163,32,FALSE)),0,VLOOKUP($B8,'Volume Totals'!$A$5:$AH$163,32,FALSE))
Is there a way to change this so that it looks in cell A1 and if the value = LASG then it uses the following formula :
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP($B8,'Volume Totals'!$A$5:$AH$163,43,FALSE)),0,VLOOKUP($B8,'Volume Totals'!$A$5:$AH$163,43,FALSE))
Otherwise use the origional formula ?
I have a table of data (say Column1 to Column 5) with multiple rows.
Column 1 to 4 will have the lookup values in multiple rows and Column 5 data should be picked up using vlookup or other lookup function.
I managed to somehow bring all these lookup values in (Column 1 to 4) in a single column in another sheet. I am now trying to use some lookup or other functions to match this single column and pick column 5 data in original sheet. Result i am expecting is lookup value in first column and next to it column 5 value.
It is basically a lookup wherein lookup value is spread over multiple rows and columns and result column is fixed. I tried using vlookup, but lookup value column and column number had to change every time when i moved from column1 to 4.
Excel offers many ways to use a key to lookup a value (VLookup, Index/Match, DGet, and the rest). What's the fastest way to perform a lookup of a small table of, say, 30 rows of key-value pairs? Theoretically, it would be most efficient to use a branch table (also known as a jump table). See the wikipedia article for branch tables: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_table. Does Excel/VBA have a way to create a branch table for such lookups?

It would help to narrow down the possible lookup combinations. For example I only need to know if it starts with T, P, or V.

I'm creating a customer manager spreadsheet. I have my data set up and hidden above the data area, so I can get autocomplete to work. What I want to do is allow my sales reps to pull up the customer information by typing the customer name, etc, which I can do with Vlookup.
I then want them to be able to type in notes into a string which is attached to the customer's row of information. For instance, Customer ABC is on Row 2, their name is A2, address is B2, and notes are C2. However, Vlookup won't allow me to change the cell it finds, only display its contents. I'm sure I'll need a submit button, and possibly some VBA, but I'm not very good with it, and I can't find the answer anywhere else. Let me know if you need any more information. I'm sure it's simple, I just can't find how to do it.
I am trying to build a stock watchlist in excel 2007 with a dynamic link to a DDE server (paid for).There is no add-in or plug-in, I just CTL ALT & drag each code from a watchlist in the program I am using and place it in a cell, however can only choose one data field at a time. There are 14 data fields and over 150 codes in my list which makes 2100 cells. (My guess is about 3 days work)
I would like to just enter the stock code in say column A (A3) and with each DDE data field (e.g. lastprice, open, cose, high etc) entered in subsequent columns have it lookup the stock code in cell A3 and return the correct value based on the code in column A, rather than entering each cell individually.
Is it possible to write a macro or vba code to create the cell formula so I can just fill down and save myself 3 days work?
The DDE server I am using is formatted like this:
PROGRAMNAMElDATAFIELD!STOCKCODE
example
MISDATAlLASTPRICE!BHP.ASX
I thought I might be able to do something like the following, but it doesn't seem to work.
MISDATAlLASTPRICE!$A3
Note: The DDE server can only be accessed while the other program is running and is password protected
I understand how to set up a normal VLOOKUP, but I am not sure how to do the following: I am trying to set up a sheet that will find the last cell of a row containing "yes" and display the value of the cell at the top of that particular "yes" column. Maybe VLOOKUP is not the answer? I have attached an example of what i am trying to do.

I'm making my own gradebook (attached) and one of my sheets will list scores for each student in different assignments. I have one sheet which keeps track of all students and all assignments with other info. I would like to program cells in one sheet (the third in the attached file) to lookup a particular student's grade in a particular assignment. I figured trying a LOOKUP with an AND requirement might work but it keeps returning the message "could not find value".
My formula references the student's name and the assignment from the identifying cells so that it is easy to copy and paste. I wondered if it was this which resulted in the error, but doubt it.
I would like to enter a name in E11, and then have G11 populate the name of the company that person belongs to, from a different sheet.

When I enter my sales data into a sheet it can be 10000 rows long, I want to be able to enter a set number of transactions on a second sheet which then uses a formula to look up what items was sold on said transaction.
I'm pretty sure it's possible but I'm out of my depth. I've using something like it before which was this statement - =IF($B1566="","",INDEX('RMS Sales'!P:P,MATCH($C1566,'RMS Sales'!$A:$A,0),1))
