Column Search For Row Data

Feb 12, 2007

I have attached a small example. I have a list of data of employees. I want to be able to input a number (in column A in example) and to search the data records for this number. When the number has been found, the corresponding info data from that Row will show in columns B,C & D.

I have tried this using LOOKUP etc but find that it is "hit & miss". I can input one ID number and the corresponding details will appear, but very often if I enter any other ID numbers further down the sheet I sometimes get the correct data or I might get the "N/A" error. The error seems to occur, I think, if the next input ID number is higher than the last. The ID numbers I input down column A will NOT be in numerical oredr.

Search A Column Of Dates & Return Data From Another Column

Jun 8, 2009

I am trying to get a formula that will search one column range “B” and pull data from another, “D”. Dates are down column “B” and some of those dates are repeated several times. In column “D” there is only one piece of data (a number) entered for each day. Eg, if 08/06/2009 has been entered 3 times in column “A”, there will only be data entered in 1 of the cells of column “D” and blank cells in the other 2.

Column B -- Column D
07/06/09 -- 54000
08/06/09
08/06/09 -- 62000
08/06/09
09/06/09 -- 61000

I couldn’t get the LOOKUP function to work properly, as there are duplicate dates in column “B” and I often got a result of 0 returned.

As I’ve only got 1 piece of data added in column “D” per day and any duplicate days would just have blank cells in “D”, I can actually get a SUMIF function to work, SUMIF(B3:B60,DATE(2009,6,8),D3:D60). Although it does work, it doesn’t feel right using it and I would prefer a formula that would return just the one cell, instead of the sum of a range of cells.

Search For Text Strings In Column Of Data

Mar 22, 2014

How many text strings in a reference column appear in paragraphs of text listed in another column within excel.

So column A contains text strings such as:

{{Advisor_Signature__c}}
{{Advisors_Initials__c}}
{{Advisors_Job_Title__c}}
{{Age__c}}

And I need to see whether any of these appear in cells in a reference column G. If they do, I would like to return 'Used' into column B.

An example of the type of text in each cell in column G is:

"If you have any questions regarding your offer, please contact me. For any questions regarding your benefits, payroll or company policies and programs, please contact HR. Sincerely, {{Advisor_Signature__c}} {{Advisors_Job_Title__c}}"

I don't seem to able to search for a text string across multiple reference cells.

Macro To Search A Column And Copy Row Data

May 13, 2006

I have a dataset that is large. I want to write a macro program that checks the number in cell A1, copies the number and then the rows contents to another worksheet/spreadsheet. Then jumps to cell A2 and if the number is different to that of A1 copy the data of that entire row over from that row to the next worksheet/spreadsheet. If the number is the same as A1 then jump over to A3

Then continue this process but rather than comparing it to A1, compare it to the new number that has been found in coloumn A.

For example

7 A
7 A
6 AB
7 A

So starting at the first line then jumping the next one then to 6 and finally 7.

Macro To Search Row And Column For Intersect And Then Input Data To Where They Meet

Jul 5, 2014

In my "cover" sheet I click the allocate cover button and it then generates a list of data below the first table. This generated data now needs to update the "timetable" sheet by using the "allocated cover teacher" and "period" cells as a reference to then input the class code into the timetable at this time.

cover.jpg

So in this picture we see that Dorothy*Schultz (in cell E27) has been given a class 3 MABA RM 15(cell D27) on TuesdayP1 (C27). I want search for Dorothy*Schultz and TuesdayP1 in the "timetable" tab to input the name of the class which in this instance would be input to cell I20 in the "timetable tab".

How To Move Data In Various Cells To New Columns Based On Search On Primary Column

Feb 4, 2014

I have a sheet which I need to arrange and it looks like -

Column A
Column B
Column C
Column D

[Code]...

the values in Column B, C , D , E & F need to be in new columns based on what we have in Column A associated with "1"

Output should be -
Column A
Column B
Column C

[Code]....

so whatever is in Column A associated with "0" should remain in place whereas whatever is in Colimn A associated with "1" should get added to the new columns. 0 and 1 resembles the 1 Records which are used as a split to normalize the data.

Create A User Defined Function To Search A Column Of Data For A Part Number

Mar 25, 2008

I want to create a user defined function to search a column of data for a part number.

If it exists I want to have a the UDf returna "fail" otherwise "pass"

Here is the code I was trying to use

Function firstpass(SN As String) As String
ws = Worksheets("Defects")
c = ""
With ws.Range("a1:a9999")
Set c = .Find(SN, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
End With
If Not c Is Nothing Then
firstpass = "Pass"
Else
firstpass = "Fail"
End If

End Function

This function only returns a "#value" and I don't quite know how to troubleshoot it.

Search For Value In Multiple Column And Row Array And Return Value In First Column?

Dec 16, 2013

I have an array 20 Rows x 42 Columns, which contains a competition draw.

I need to search this array for a unique value and return whatever the time is in the first column on the same row as the value appears, and enter it into column C in the Womens Times sheet.

I also want to return into column D the court number from row 3.

The reason i want this automated is as teams enter / withdraw we may need to drag the games from court to court to fill gaps, so i want the Womens Times sheet to update accordingly.

I have been messing around with index and match, but cannot quite get it to return what i need.

I have attached an example ... on the sheet "Womens Times" in column A there is a list of game numbers ( #1W etc etc) indicating womens game #1 and so on. The main sheet i am using also has a seperate tab for the mens games, hence the designator of W or M on the end of the game number.

Use VLOOKUP Function When Column To Search Is Not Column A?

Sep 27, 2012

use the VLOOKUP function when the column I need to search is not column A?

I have a Workbook with two worksheets in it and in Sheet 1 I have 10 columns of various text and numbers. In cell A1 of sheet 2 I will fill with a certain code that appears in column E in Sheet 1. The result I would be looking for should come from Column A in Sheet 1. I thought that the following would work copied into B1 of Sheet 2 but it doesn't appear to - =VLOOKUP($A1,'Sheet 1'!E$1:$E$481,1,FALSE).

Macro To Search Column-by-Column?

Jun 3, 2012

I need to come up with a way to search Sheet1 column-by-column and within each column search cell-by-cell. The value within each cell is a string and there are empty or blank cells between data (Ending the search after 100 rows is sufficient). As the macro iterates down each column and finds a cell that contains data, I need it to copy that data and paste it in a column on Sheet2. Basically, as the macro searches column A with space between data in Sheet1, it needs to copy that data to column A with no spaces in Sheet2. This needs to repeat for 20 columns.

Search Through Column First Then Move Onto Next Column?

Sep 11, 2012

I am basically trying to find the first non-empty cell in a range, but I want the macro to look down columns first. In other words, I want it to look down column A, then column B, and so on. Right now I believe it is searching by rows.

With Columns("A1:D15")
.Find(what:="*", after:=.Cells(1, 1), LookIn:=xlValues).Activate

Search Column For X Or Y?

Mar 25, 2014

The end goal: to take the list of transactions provided by my bank and make a spreadsheet that adds up all the transactions for a different type.

I have already figured out that =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("wal",B5)),C5,"") works REALLY well when searching for Walmart. I was originally using FIND instead of SEARCH but I found--through this site--that I should use SEARCH instead because FIND is case sensitive and SEARCH is not. considering I have found walmart listed 3 different ways: WALMART, Wal-Mart and WAL-MART. B is the "description" column I am searching and C is the amount column that I want to copy if it matches the search string.

I want to consider McD, Wendy's, BK and Chick-Fil-A all 1 category(column), instead of 5+ different categories.

Restricting The Search To One Column

May 1, 2007

I am trying to get a macro that converts Japanese digits to their Roman counterparts but does it only in a specific column. My original version just selected the J column and then Cells.Replace ran just fine on just that column. I have discovered, however, that the users may make the crucial column either J or K, so I changed it to search for the header first, and then select that column. It replaces in the entire sheet, however.

Here's what I've got (I've only given you one digit replacement. The What doesn't display properly because this forum doesn't display Japanese):
