Cleaning Up VLOOKUP Formula With Possible Matrix Code
Jan 15, 2009
I am wondering if there is an easier way to look up values in a matrix. I use the VLOOKUP with the vertical values as the lookup_value, then another lookup for the col_index_number to find the horizontal values. The example in the attached file is just a sample of my spreadsheet. I need to apply this to a roughly 10*10 matrix (which changes every now and then) and apply this matrix to over 1,200 rows. Is there an easy way to returne theses values or is the way I am currently doing it the best option.
I am basically doing some housekeeping and trying to reduce my number of code lines. Can this bit of code be done a bit simpler?
For r = lrow To 15 Step -1 If Range("N" & r).Interior.Color = vbRed Then Range("N" & r).Interior.Color = vbCyan Range("N" & r).Value = "Triangular" End If If Range("V" & r).Interior.Color = vbRed Then Range("V" & r).Interior.Color = vbCyan Range("V" & r).Value = "Triangular" End If Next r
Is there a formula where I can take a zip code, and for any zip codes that have the 4 digit zip code extension, to remove those 4 digits, and to add a zero to the beginning of any zip codes where the zero was cut off. Is there a formula I can run my zips through to do both of those tasks?
This was a snap in Lotus. Unfortunately, the VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP formulas don't translate to Excel on conversion. I need to estimate the weight of reinforcing steel in concrete based on 7 different sizes of rebar and spacing of the bar between 1" and 24".
I have created a matrix(lookup table) with the bar spacing listed in decimal equivilents in feet on the top row.Inthe row below, I have numbered the columns from 1 to 24. the next row is blank. Along the left side of the matrix, I have listed the bar sizes 3 thru 10. Within the table I have listed all the bar weights/SF of concrete. IE if the slab has 1 mat of #5 rebar spaced 6" oc. If you look in row 7, under column 6, the weight of weight of the bar in that sf of concrete is found. In the part of the worksheet where the caculations are performed set up as follows:.....
I´m building a function that uses values stored in matrices. I'd like to make a independent function, it is, I'd like to write the matrices direct in the VBA code. What is the correct sintaxe? Is needed to difene element by element or VBA accepts matrix definition like Matlab, i.e. matrix A in the code below, or accepts only definition like the B array below? The Code below give a
Using VBA, I wish to work out the inverse matrix of a large matrix (100*100), but keep getting the # Num! Error. I am using the minverse function. I have defined variable as "variant", does this give me the same possiblities in terms of number size as the variable "Double"?
I'm having trouble with a formula. Column A is a list of names. Row 1 is a list classes. What I need to be able to do is select a class from Row 1 in drop-down list in C14 and have it return the list of names in list starting at C17 based on the 'X'. In this example for SCIENCE it should return Tim Mark Jen. The actual file has 50+ names and 50+ classes.

I was wondering if it is possible to write a formula so that the below table can be read based on the input (in this case start month and cut-off month) and return the value from the table. I have also attached the excel with the data and some examples.
Im currently working to speed up my monthly reporting process. Each month I pull data from the ledger by account & office. Below is an example of what the format of the ledger looks like.
My next step is to report the amounts by account number for each office. At the moment I do this manually, which takes a very long time. My goal is to be able to paste the ledger data on a worksheet and have my report populate automatically.
In regards to the account numbers from the ledger, we summarize the accounts using the first 3 digits of the account. For example, account number "1113454" would be considered a "111" account. Account number 3335454 would be considered a "333" account.

I currently have a report with so many large array formulas that it is virtually unusable. I want to use the DSUM formula in place of my array formulas but I am vexed in regards to creating a DSUM formula that I can put in the top-left cell of my report and then copy down to the bottom right side of my report. Currently, the array-formulas sum data from a large list when it meets two criteria -- one part of the data-record in the list must match the row label of the current row in the report and another part of the data-record in the list must match the column label in the current column of the report. I have found with the DSUM formula that you can use a "formula" criteria in place of a static criteria...the problem I am having is that the part of the formula that points to the data-set must be relative while the part that points to the formulas criteria needs to be static -- in order to be able to make one DSUM formula and copy it down and over I would need my formula criteria to have the opposite setup (with the data-set part static and the formula criteria as relative).
I am using VBA to enter customer information into a Microsoft SQL database. I have an excel sheet with thousands of customers listed. I will be using a While loop to process each line of the sheet. Part of the While loop needs to make any format changes necessary before the data moves over to the DB. So here is the issue:
Into a uniform layout? I would prefer ###-###-####
Each of the numbers above is an example from the list I have. There may be more variations (I have over 20 seperate lists to process, with over 10000 customers per list)
I imagine I need some process that will remove all character except numbers and then break the numbers up to add the hyphens back in at the appropriate places.
I have a database of sales records containing 6 address columns (C-H). I want to extract the country (which may be entered in any of the 6 columns) and place this in a separate column. I have a definitive list of countries on sheet 2 which I have saved as a named range (Country).
I would like to be able to set something up which searches the six address fields on sheet 1 and if a match is found against the Country range, enter this in a separate column (I). A non-code solution would be ideal as I am nowhere near that level yet and want to be able to understand what I am doing as far as possible!
I frequently use the record option to start off my macros. I realize this usually results in recorded events which are not absolutely necessary (recording a print macro is one that is full of excess line items). I then try and combine what I have recorded with what I have garnered from this wonderful website. If my spreadsheets are small - and I am not writing code to pass any inspections - is there a need to go back and clean up?
For a table like the one below produced for the sake of example (actual is much much bigger) I want to make it list rows that are true for a certain column for a certain variable in the matrix. So for say water terrain, which types of activity can I do i.e. swimming. Or for Offroad the activites which I can't do i.e. Run and Swim.
ActivityWaterRoadOffroad Jog nym Run nyn Walk nyy Swim ynn y=yes n=no m=maybe
However I have survey data results and in one of the cells it has multiple values which are separated between ; and some are not separated at all e.g B&Q; The Range; Wicks The Garden Shop
Also there are spelling mistakes everywhere and variation of the word B&Q e.g b+q, B n Q
I need to add count up all of the B&Q, Wicks etc...
I have an old customer list maintained by my company's previous owner in excel format that mostly stored numbers ###-#### format, but also some in ###-###-#### format.
My new list has always been maintained with numbers in (###) ###-#### format.
I have merged these two lists in a new excel file have begun the tedious process of cleaning up duplicates and bad data.
I have used conditional formatting to highlight duplicate numbers in the appropriate columns (L, M, N, O) in this case. However, it does't find matches in the other formats or perhaps the number with the old area code. I know the area code change could lead to false positives, but they should be minimal as this is a small business with mostly local customers. So what I'd like to find out is a formula for conditional formatting that will compare the last 8 characters in each cell (###-####) so as to eliminate issues of missing or different area codes. I would like it to check all of the columns for duplicate numbers not just within each column or within each row individually.
Also separate but related if possible to highlight a different color any cells with data not in any of these formats or if not in (###) ###-#### format if it's too much for all the formats.
I have several time series in excel pulled from a datasource on a daily basis, however some series include weekends, some dont and some others have a few days missing. What I did is I already have a column set up with only weekdays on the other sheet, what I am trying to do is match the data with the dates.
The obvious choice is vlookup, but given that I have over 50 time series and the time span is over 10 yrs, its not the optimal solution...it will crash the sheet i think. I also tried a combo of match and index...but same...too many formulas. I think I need a macro. Does anyone who analyzes time series have a "cleaning" code that he oe she can share with me?
I have a worksheet that contains lots of value. I want to run quick calculation on it but for some reason counta function counts blank cells.
I checked and the cells with =len() and it returns a number > 1
What is the proper way to clean the whole worksheet with some copy paste value and get rid of invisible character like space or nonprintable ones to be sure to get the right number of cells with value?
My problem has to do with an list of over 22,000 addresses (don't want to think about going through it manually )
The names are in column A and the addresses are in column B. The problem is, is that some of the addresses fit in one cell and others are spread over two (Oklahoma City, OK in one cell, 73034 in the one below it, for example.)
The names with corresponding addresses taking up two squares have been placed in merged cells, so that they line up with their addresses. Here is a picture below.
Capture.PNG
What I need is each address in one cell next to its address in one cell (to make it searchable, etc.) I thought I was being really clever when I copied Column A, then pasted the formatting onto Column B (so that the cells would be 1:1, one name cell, one address cell) but didn't realize I would be losing the information in the cells being merged.
I am having a bit of a problem creating a formula for this report that I have to update every week. I need to be able to find the room nights and net room revenue values for the specific rate code in the "MATRIX" workbook.
On "CURRENT REPORT," I need D4 to pull up the value on "MATRIX" that equals "Room Nights" in column H and "CONABC" in column J. The same thing needs to happen for F4 but with "Net Room Revenue" in column H. The full report has about 500 of these codes in column J, and I need a formula that I can copy easily and will not be affected if codes are added or removed. This is super last minute - I need to finish this report by tomorrow morning, so take a look at the attachments.
Does anyone know the corespondant macro code for the formula =R2-VLOOKUP(M2;C:H;6;FALSE) and =Q2-VLOOKUP(M2;C:H;5;FALSE) ? The results are displayed in the same row in column X for the first formula, and in column W for the second formula. I would like the corespondant macro to apply to the entire sheet. And there's another catch...the data that the formulas apply is in fact a Web Query...and I need that the macro to recalculate every time the Web Query refreshes.
I have a worksheet where I want to have one column of state abbreviations (entered by the user), and a second column of state-specific information that will be entered from a lookup table--named "StatePrefixes". Here is my code so far:
VB: Public Sub cmdSelectState_Click() Dim St As String St = ActiveCell.Value ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Value = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(St, StatesPrefixes, 2, False) End Sub
As is the code is generating a run-time error "Unable to get the Vlookup property of the WorksheetFunction class. If I remove the reference to the WorksheetFunction class I then receive a value of "#N/A" in my worksheet.
I have a workbook containing 2 sheets called ('EPM Extract' and 'Sheet B'). Column 'B' of the 'EPM Extract' sheet contains a list of Project IDs (numerical), and 'Sheet B' also contains a list of Project IDs (also in column B), plus all of the additional data I require.
Now, from the required cell within the 'EPM Extract' sheet, the normal Excel the code would read as =vlookup(B3,'Sheet B'!B5:W32,11,False), upon which I would drag down the code from that cell to all other required cells below. However, these are my issues:
* How do I even begin to write the code within VB, as I know that variables and arrays have to be set
* I need to apply the vlookup across 12 columns as I am bringing back 12 different results (i.e. I need to copy results from column counts 11 to 22 from 'Sheet B' to columns in 'EPM Extract' sheet.
*The amount of data in the sheets will vary each month, so I need to know how to apply the code only to the amount of rows in the 'EPM Extract' sheet, so some kind of R1C1xl.UP will need to be defined also.
