Comparing Values And Returning Info From Separate Cells

Sep 18, 2013

If I am working from cell (D16), I am looking for a formula to compare the value in 2 different cells (D8 and D12) to a value in a third cell (D14) and the one with the closest value without going over returns a seperate value from either (D7 or D11), But if both D8 and D12 are above the value of (D14) then the closest value would be the answer and return the answer from (D7 or D11).

Example: D7=Bob and D8=25
D11=John and D12= 40
D14= 45
D16 (answer cell) =John
OR:
D7=Bob and D8=46
D11=John and D12=48
D14=45
D16 (answer cell) =Bob

Comparing Two Columns And Returning Number Of Cells In One Column With Higher Values?

Apr 8, 2014

I have two Columns C and E that have dollar amounts in them. I want to compare each row in those columns and then total the number in column C that are higher that column E.

So basically C6>E6, C7<E7, C8=E8,C9>E9 should return the result of 2. There are two instances where the price in C is higher than the price in E.

Comparing Two Columns Of Data And Returning Values That Do NOT Appear In Both

Apr 22, 2014

I have an attendance sheet that employees scan their badge number, and returns their name and time/date stamp using a simple VLOOKUP.

I want to create a report that compares the names in the attendance sheet against the all the names in the master sheet, and only returns the names that have not attended the training.

I have tried a few test formulas using COUNTIF function, but with no luck.

I have attached an example. Use the worksheet labeled April 2014 A (2nd shift)

Comparing Customer Names In Rows And Returning Text Data In Different Cells If Same

Jan 26, 2010

I've got a list of donor names, names listed multipled times in Column A, each row with different donation data. For instance:

Sheet 1

A1 - Mary Jones, B1- Internet Donation
A2 - Mary Jones, B2 - Silent Auction Purchase
A3 - Mary Jones, B3 - Event Ticket Purchase
A4 - Gary Jones, B4 - Foundation Grant
A5 - Gary Jones, B5 - Internet Donation
A6 - Sara Parker, B6 - Event Ticket Purchase

I want Excel to compare rows A1 and A2, and if the name has not changed, enter the donation data from Column B into another sheet that will just list that person's name once:

Sheet 2

A1 - Mary Jones, B1- Donation1, C1 -Donation2, D1 - Donation3
A2 - Gary Jones, B2 - Donation1, C2 - Donation2, D1 - Donation3 (which would return no value because there the name changes

Does this involve IF, MATCH or VLOOKUP formulas?

Comparing Character Strings In Separate Cells In Excel Spreadsheets?

Apr 1, 2014

I have a large excel spreadsheet with alpha-numeric data. I want to be able to compare two cells in different row side by side and return the difference in another cell.

e.g. I have in cell B2, "tom, rick, mike, I" and in cell C2, "mike, rick". I need to compare the cell C2 to cell B2 and return the difference in cell D2 which in this case would be the characters " tom, I". They are separated with "," and they can be in different order as you can see in the example.

Comparing 2 Or More Columns And Returning A True Value

Feb 10, 2009

I'm quite new to array formulas in excel and was wondering whether or not I can advance on this formula:

=AND($C$5=B7,$K$5=G5)

The problem is I would like to compare the entire colums (or array) and return the number of 'TRUE' statements in the array as a value.

=AND($C$5:$C$65536=B7,$K$5:$K$65536=G5)

however, this returns all values as 'FALSE'

example of arrgument:

IF C5:C65535=customer then count how many cells in K5:K65536=completed

Comparing Two Ranges And Returning A Match

Jan 22, 2010

I need a function to compare two ranges and return a match. For example

Range A: {A56, B43, C98, D44}
Range B: {A33, G89, D44, K123, OB55}

the function would return D44. Is it possible at all with functions or do I need a macro?

Comparing DNA Data And Returning Matches

Aug 5, 2009

AAA D16S539 16 19 XX
and so on.

Each "Sample Name" will have 16 different "Marker"s and upto 10 different "Allele" at each "Marker". There could be upwords of 200 Sample Names on each exported sheet. Is there a simple way to compare all of the data from each "Sample Name" to each other and possibly to another sample set that will always be static but of the sample general makup as this?

Comparing Text Values In Two Cells And Adding 1 To Result Column

Apr 14, 2013

I have an excel file with some data in it. I have two columns with one of four words in it. For simplicity I'll call them RED, GREEN, BLUE, and Yellow. A few columns over I have columns "Same" "Good" and "Bad". I'm trying to figure out a way to get excel to put a 1 in the appropriate column, if cell A1 is Red I need excel to look at the word in cell B2 and put a 1 in the "same" column if A1 and B1 are the same word. If the word in B2 is Yellow I need excel to put a 1 in the "Good" column. If the word in B1 is GREEN or BLUE I need it to put a 1 in the bad column. The tricky part is each of the four words RED, GREEN, BLUE, and Yellow have a different set of words that will be called "good" or "bad". So if the word in cell A1 if Green for example it will have a different set of good and bad color words.

So it seems I need four different functions depending on what word is in A1. In the column next to these lists of words I have the date which I'll need to use to give me the sums of same, good, and bad for each day. But first things first. I think I need to use a combination of IF functions and MATCH function, but I can't figure out anything that works. Below is what I'm hoping it will look like when I've got the right formulas.

First column
Second column
Date
Same
Good
Bad

Sorting! I Have 1 Column W/all The Info. Together. To Make It Into Separate Tables

Sep 22, 2009

I have 3 status sheets (about 300+ ea.) that I was given to sort out.

Information:
1) Column A: Number of items (i.e. 1 )
2)Columbe B: Rec'd Date + initials + no. of copies received, followed by notes (i.e. 021709,akb,01)

Since there is only one column with all the information together, is there a way to sort the attached sheet by initials? I don't know how to create a formula to pull all the date,mjg's; date,jac's; date,akb's; etc... into a separate table.

A: No. of items
B: Date,mjg... = Total no. of items
C: Date, abk... = Total no. of items
D: Date, akb... = Total no. of items

Reorganizing Data To Show Info From Two Separate Columns In Third New Column

Feb 5, 2014

I've got a problem with organizing my data. I've performed a study with several participants, each of which does several trials with 8 conditions (1,2,3,4,5,6,7, or 8), with each participant doing a condition more than once. I also have a separate column telling me whether they responded correctly or incorrectly (with a 1 or a 0).

I need to find a way to produce a new column to identify whether they got each condition (of the conditions 1,2,3,4,5,6,7, or 8) correct separately, i.e one column for responses to condition 1, one for condition 2 and so on....

It would also be useful if there was a way that once this is done I could summarize their accuracy of responses to each condition.

I've attached an example of my data. excel problem example.xlsx‎

Macro - Copy Data Based On Info In Cell From Separate Workbook

Jun 4, 2014

I have an invoicing spreadsheet, what I want is to have a main working page and then tabs after separated by vendor, but save myself a bunch of manual work in the future.

I want to be able to work in the main tab and the other tabs automatically update with the new info.

So I want the macro to search the text in the first column and if it finds "AIM Land Services Ltd." then I want it to populate the appropriate tab, in this case "AIM", with all the respective information after it ie: A-O. But I dont want it to select any other vendors/ info.

This is what I have:

Sub MoveData()
For Each cell In Range("A1:A1") ' Where to look for the date
If cell.Value = "AIM Land Services Ltd." Then ' The date
Range("A5:O350").Select ' What is the range to copy
Selection.Copy ' Copy it
Sheets("Invoice_Log").Select ' Select the Sheet it applies to
Range("A5").Select ' Where to paste the data

Cell Addresses Derived From Concatenated Values In Separate Cells

Apr 2, 2013

I need to return a value from a cell in Column H, but with a row number that varies with each entry.

I repeat this formula every 5 rows or so. But the cells referenced on another spreadsheet are only one row apart. Because of this discrepance, when I copy my highly developed cluster of formulas, they only reference every 5th entry on the other sheet. What I've been doing is manually altering long, complicated formulas by hand. I can't do a replace function because every once in awhile it'll find an extra instance of the digit I'm replacing and mess up parts of the formula I don't want changed. I could avoid this tedious, time-consuming work-around if I could make a formula that would do something like this:

=Display Value from in column H: (row number per cell B1)

And cell B1 would include the number 3789.

So the returned result is the value from cell H:3789

How To Separate Text From Numbers Into Two Separate Cells

I'm trying to separate text from numbers into two separate cells...

Essentially, I would like the users to copy and paste data into Column A, as seen below. Then, hopefully by formula separate the text characters into Column B and the numbers into Column C.

Input: Output 1: Output 2:

Col A Col B Col C

Wells 1234 Wells 1234
Wells Fargo 123 Wells Fargo 123
Wells Fargo 1234 Wells Fargo 1234
