I have two columns with the same data type (text) and I want to compare one column to another and if they match, return the data from another column.
For example: I have 2 columns of names on separate Excel files. One file contains name and phone numbers, while the other doesn't. I want to compare the names from file one with file two and if the names match, return the corresponding phone number in a new column.
I've tried VLOOKUP and IF statements, but I can't get it to come out.
I have a sheet with 2 big columns (3000 each). I want to search each element from the first column in the second column and put a message "Yes" if it is and "No" if it isn't, at the same position in the third column. How can i do that? I want to use the sheet for more than 3000 lines (about 5000). I attached an example.
I have 2 columns of usernames A and B, A has approx 700 usernames and B has about 80. In column C I have a list of names 1 for each username in column A. I want to compare the B with A and if there is a match return the value in C and place it in D.
I have two columns of values and I want to compare them and return differing values. So I named the ranges "A" and "B" so if your in B but not in A I want that value in C.
I started with a vlookup but that doesn't seem appropriate to the way I was using it.
I have two columns, one with the target text (D:D) and one with text I want to compare it too (A:A). If the text in column (D:D) matches the one in (A:A), I want to return the value in (B:B). I attached a sample of the problem i'm dealing with.
I must match column A and column B to return the column C In colA there are all my countries In column B there are all my countries code and countries I want get the colC where all my colB match than colA.
I have used the merge facility to incoporate all the worksheets into one excel files. As they all have same heading, I have sorted the data, first by their account expiry time (oldest to newest) and then by manager (A-Z)
For example, system report generated on 15/03/2013, 28/03/2013, 03/04/2013, 15/05/2013, 28/05/2013 and so on and these are sheet names too. What I want is one worksheet called report with the same heading as my merged worksheets and return values where Column C in 28/03/2013 is compared to 15/03/2013 and if the employee ID matches than return the whole row of data for the report.
the next query would then be for finding employee ID in 03/04/2013 and comparing it with 28/03/2013 worksheet and returning the matched ID in report worksheet.
This is the layout of the report worksheet.
Display NameEmployee IDAccount StatusE-mailDepartmentManagerComment 15/03/2013 to 28/03/2013 28/03/2013 to 03/04/2013 03/04/2013 to 15/05/2013 15/05/2013 to 28/05/2013
so for the above report worksheet, if employee id matches the two compared worksheet (15/03/2013 to 28/03/2013) return all value (Display name, employee id, account status, email, department, manager, comment) from the 28/03/2013 and so on.
I have a spreadsheet with three years worth of data for a property I manage. Each column has cost data for the year and the specific department/cost for that year as the row value.
I have a column between the years that calculates the percent of gross revenue for the specific department/cost.
I would like to find (or create) a formula that will compare the percentage (or specific cost) for the three years within the specific row and if the increase year over year over year exceeds a trigger value it returns something (check me out/true/false) whatever.
The cost items for the property are in the hundreds so I'm trying to come up with a way to quickly see what specific cost items are going up (or down) more rapidly then what would be considered normal.
I've got two worksheets ("June" & "July"). On both worksheets, column A is comprised of ID numbers and column B contains dollar amounts. I need to compare the ID numbers in Column A on each worksheet, and if they match I want to copy the ID number and the amount to a third worksheet ("Results").
how to Chk the text string in particular cell, compare it with a super set column and get the full from of the text string from another corresponsing column and the output will be corresponsing full form of the chked text string?
I'm trying to compare values in 2 separate columns to see how many times the same value appears in both columns. Ideally I would be able to insert a range function to compare the values in the column "ID 1" against the values in column "ID 2" and return the count of times that a value appears in both columns. For example 2122, 1112 and 1718 appear in both columns and I would like the formula to return a count of 3.
In my actual project I'm comparing 2 columns in the same worksheet. The column are column B with data in cells B2:B10266 against column C with data in cells C2:C18560.
What formula do I need for the cells in column F to show the name of the cheapest supplier ... for example the cheapest (£17,820) in line 2 is supplier A ????
if there is a way to find duplicate items in a list and return a value, if a duplicate exists.
Basically I have 19 buildings each with a separate bill of quantities. I'm looking to compare and compile a comprehensive list. So that duplicate items in different buildings can be compared side by side.
I have attached a sample of what I am trying to do.
There is no fixed pattern for the values, but they are separated by commas only. All i need is to compare col A and col B and return me the value in Col C like this,
Col C (col C is to know the removed value from comparison) F (for line 1)
Col D (to find the letters that are added from comparison) T (for line 2)
I'm trying to compare cells in two spreadsheets and return a value to another cell in one of those spreadsheets.
SPREADSHEET_1
Column A - NAME (Contains Data) Column B - AREA (Contains Data) Column C - PLAN (Contains Data)
SPREADSHEET_2
Column A - AREA (Contains Data) Column B - NAME (EMPTY) Column C - PLAN (EMPTY)
I need to compare Spreadsheet_1 - Column B to Spreadsheet_2 - Column A and then fill in the cells in spreadsheet_2 with the values from spreadsheet_1 column A and column C.
I have a list of two rows of over 20,000 items. I would like to know what data has been added to the second row from the first row and what has been removed.
I have two spreadsheets that I have to compare three columns in each to each other and find the difference between them. And I'm not sure how to do this.
I have attached a sample file to show what I'm looking at.
Basicly I need to know the differences between each spreadsheet based on zips. Each zip is assigned to a store and group and the "data" spreadsheet is the master. I need to compare the "system" spreadsheet and have it show me what is different based on each zip.
Basically I have a string of dates, I want to get the max of the values that are before a specific date and return the header. Look at the file I provide for better understanding.
I've a long list of value with indicator which I need to compare with an entry after which it need to return a text indicator. I'm using IF and MATCH function.
for example i have two work books where i need to compare the times, such as i need to see where does 10:26 am lies and after comparing it on workbook2 we need to return the data in a,b,c blocks infornt of 10:26am, i have tried IF(AND()) but i was not able to rationalise it for huge and random data.
Outout should be: 7/13/2013 10:26 a bc 7/13/2013 10:58 a bc 7/13/2013 12:06g hi 7/13/2013 12:17g hi 7/13/2013 12:29g hi 7/13/2013 12:29g h i 7/13/2013 12:37ghi 7/13/2013 13:21ghi 7/13/2013 14:24ghi
I want to the user to press ebutton i.e Sunday and macro does the comparison.
Process
I would like macro to look at sheet "Check Hours" column "E" (cell E4) and compare it against the sheet "Check Employee Hours" column "E" (cell E7). If the hours matches i would like to say OK on sheet "Check Hours" cell E4, if it doesn't match then say CHECK.
I am trying to create my own budgeting tool. I have most of the tracker set up but I hit a stumbling block. I downloaded transations from Bank of America as a CSV file into excel. I want to categorize these transactions.
I created a keyword list that has words like "Starbucks" "Exxon" etc. Each of these keywords is then listed next to a category like "food" and "gas". So I want a formula that will compare the transactions to my keyword list and return the category type. Here is an example transaction:
CHECKCARD 0256 STARBUCKS USA 00029801 GAINESVILLE VA
I have a keyword "Starbucks" in f2 and "food" in g2.
I have two columns that have similar information. I want to copy the unique information from one cell to a third, blank cell. In my case cells d2 and cell e2 are almost identical except cell d2 has addition information. I want to copy that information into cell f2. I have a feeling I am making this harder than it needs to be.
I have two separate workbooks, each with a great deal of information, such as name, ssn, dates, statuses, etc. I would like to compare the SSN column for both workbooks, and when it finds a match (which there would be many) to copy the MOS cell from the same row to the other workbook. Here is my breakdown with names:
Workbook 1: Macros.xls Workbook 2: MASS 162.xls The SSN column is column C in both workbooks When there is a match found between the SSN column in Macros.xls and the SSN column in MASS 162.xls, I need to copy the MOS cell (column E) from the MACROS.xls workbook to the MASS 162.xls workbook into the same row, but in column M, which is currently empty.
Fist I want to compare ColB=ColH, if TRUE, compare colA=colG, if TRUE, again compare colC=colI, IF all this conditions true, then give (colD-colJ) on colL.
all the unmatched rows in 2 tables to populate with different for each table
