Counting Matching Numbers In Two Adjacent Columns
Nov 19, 2007I have a fairly large spread sheet where I need to count the number of instances where the number in one column matches the number adjacent to it in a second column.
View 9 RepliesI have a fairly large spread sheet where I need to count the number of instances where the number in one column matches the number adjacent to it in a second column.
View 9 RepliesI have a sheet with data which is all sorted by columns.
What I want to be able to count the occurrence of an instance when 2 cells in the same row (but in different columns) match my given criteria.
Ive been using 'countif' to count the instances in a single column and I am now aware that this is about all it can be used for.
An example of my data is:
A B
1 a
1 a
1 c
2 d
2 c
3 b
3 b
3 c
3 d
What I want to be able to count for example is how many times '3' & 'b' occur on the same row (in this case the answer would be 2).
Im not very good with pivot tables and have tried but have not managed to find an answer. I really hope that someone can help as Ive been working on this probelm for days and quite frankly its doing my head in :-)
I have the following columns (O & S):
S O
-----
1 3
3 7
6 6
8 4
1 3
2 8
1 6
I want a code (Formula) do the follwoing: Matching number 1 in column S with number 3 in Column O and count how many matches found in the two columns, Which in this case only two.
I cannot get various formulas (Countif, Match, Frequency, Etc) to work properly.
I am trying to arrive at a total number of matches of numbers in cell range B1:G1 with any numbers entered into the cell range of K1:P11 and have the total of matches display in cell H1.
However I do not want to count duplicate numbers from the K1:P11 cells. (if the number 5 in posted in K1:P11 multiple times I only need it reported once in H1)
B1:G1 is the constant and the numbers will not change - K1:P11 cells will be populated by adding numbers until the all the numbers in B1:G1 is completed and match.
Range
B1 C1 D1 E1 F1 G1
2 7 19 45 22 13
H1 Total of matching numbers in cell range K1:P11
Im trying to make an excel spreadsheet for work for working out how many of each product and individual staff member has sold
I have 2 columns one with staff and one with what they sold e.g.
Staff Member - Sales
Staff 1 - prod A
Staff 2 - prod B
Staff 3 - prod A
Staff 2 - prod C
Staff 1 - prod A
and have another table, the one that i want to populate, that looks like this
Staff 1
prod A =
prod B =
prod C =
Staff 2
prod A =
prod B =
prod C =
etc
I cant seem to find a function that will work out how many of prod A staff 1 has sold and how many prod B he has sold etc
i have tried things like countif but i cant seem to get them to link the staff member and sales boxes together, the only way i can think of is to write down an equation for each line, but i have hundreds of sales and that would takes ages
On Pipe worksheet, pipe numbers 1-203 are listed in column A. Each pipe number has a flow rate that is listed in column E. I need it to look up the pipe number in column A on the Job worksheet and report the flow rate (from the Pipe worksheet) in column D for each pipe.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI need to find and match patterns of strings in a column and fetch data from the adjacent column. I've attached a sample workbook with my sample data.
How can I find the appropriate matching pattern and fetch and fill data from the adjacent column from my source table to destination? I tried the string functions available and used SEARCH function to match the pattern and check whether it is available. However, when the pattern is found, how can I fetch the adjacent column ?
My attempt to code a formula using SUBSTITUTE, MID and SEARCH functions. Below is the monster formula I wrote - it works and returns 1 when the pattern is found.
Formula:
I need to return the matching pattern that is found. And with it the corresponding adjacent cell's value.

This is what I need:
Columns B, C, D & E are all populated with 3 digit numbers.
I would like column F to automatically populate with any of the 3 digit numbers that share two numbers, i.e.
F2 might look like this (using 00 as the pair):
001, 040
F3 might look like this (using 01 as the pair):
701, 051, 110, 001, 120
F4 might look like this (using 12 as the pair):
123, 721, 281, 912, 112, 120
etc...
I'm trying to find a way to search a second sheet in a workbook for specific criteria outlined in a first sheet (in my attached example, from A3 downwards within the 'list of search criteria' sheet), and then to copy any secondary data found against a successful search match to the original sheet, transposed against its corresponding matched search term.
As you can see in the example, the search term 'bindi' (A4 in the 'list of search criteria' sheet) appears in the 'data' sheet 3 times - the secondary data for these occurences ('feathery', 'Fibonacci', 'glassy') is copied to the 'bindi' row on the first sheet and is offset with each copy to produce a transposed-esque effect of copy and paste.
If it's any help, there are a maximum of 9 matches for a single search term in the real document.
Thanks in advance for your help... I tried to adapt a previous solution given to me for a similar question but failed miserably. I bow humbly to your expertise!
I want to delete rows in whole list and numbers of rows to be deleted I have in for example C column. How to do it?
View 9 Replies View RelatedEssentially I want to show how many loans funded in October 2013, from ABC Lending, and I want that result to show in cell K9 of the Sample Output sheet. However, since I'm dealing with filtered data, I cannot figure out the correct combination of formulas to make this happen (e.g., SUBTOTAL, VLOOKUP).
Specifically, I'm stuck with the combination of a) counting the results that meet the monthly date criteria, combined with b) the filtered results. The single cell that I want to solve is K9, on the attached "Sample Output" sheet. Once I see how this cell works, I can figure out the rest. This cell is looking for the number of loans that funded in October 2013, from ABC Lending.
The filtered results are located on the "SCORE Data" sheet. The filter is already configured to only show results for ABC Lending, and the relevant column is labeled "Funded" (column "I"). Since the "Sample Output" sheet is looking for loans that funded in that month, and not a specific date, I created column "U" on the "SCORE Data" sheet, to convert specific day-dates to month-dates.
I import a text file that displays outstanding parts orders. The order Number column only displays one number even if there are multiple parts ordered I.E. so if three parts are on order then the order number is displayed once with the other two underneath blank. I would like to filter the column that displays the amount of stock that is available so that even if the row has no stock but the other two have all three rows are displayed that reference the order number.

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.
ID 1ID 2
12342122
45671112
89101718
11122678
13144544
15162324

I am doing a research with the following information. In column B, I have the name of the buyer company, column B cells that contain numbers 1, 2 or 3 opposite the company name in column B depending on certain characteristics. I would like to mark the companies in column A in different colors (or some other recognizable way) as described below.
columns result
col A col B col C
7 Materials Inc 3
7 Materials Inc 2
6 Rayon Inc 3
6 Rayon Inc 3
6 Rayon Inc 3
8 Commun Corp 1
8 Commun Corp 2
8 Commun Corp 3
8 Commun Corp 2
8 Commun Corp 1
I would like to have on output in column A as shown above according to the following criteria:
4: if there are only 1 in column C opposite the specific company in column B
5: if there are only 2 in column C opposite the specific company in column B
6: if there are only 3 in column C opposite the specific company in column B
7: if there are 1, 2 and 3 in column C opposite the specific company in column B
8: if there are 1 and 2 in column C opposite the specific company in column B
Any suitable function in excel or Macros that can work with the formatting, because I have tens of thousands of companies and it will take too much time to do it manually.
I would like to copy rows based on the value of another cell.
For example turn this

I have a column of numbers (column A) which I'd like to compare to an adjacent column of numbers (column B) and, by row, determine if the number is larger.
If it is, I'd like to place a different colour on the cell. What is the formula I need to use to accomplish this?
Ex:
Col A Col B
30,000 5,000 - A is larger than B, therefore A is formatted RED
20,000 20,000 - A is the same as B, therefore no format applied
10,000 15,000 - A is less than B, therefore A is formatted GREEN
I have several numbers that are contained in non-adjacent cells. I need to create a cell that will evaluate the cells individually to make sure that they are within a certain range. Once that is done, I want the remaining numbers that are within the range to be averaged. How the heck can I accomplish this task? SUMIF and COUNTIF will not allow me to use non-adjacent cell ranges.
