Create Helper Column That Marks Distinct Values
Nov 26, 2012
I have a table with 200.000 rows.
I need to create a helper column, that marks distinct values with 1 and not distinct "" or 0.
I tried the following but both use countif and I believe it is the problem it's just to slow.
=IF(COUNTIF($A$2:A2;A2);1;0)
=1/COUNTIF($A$2:A2;A2)
but both are really slow +20 mins to calculate and many times Excel crashes( 2007 32bit).
The workbook is really simple
Col1 (number formatted as text) - Col2 =distinct

I am trying to count the distinct times a value shows up in a column, if another column has a 2 in it.
For example:
Columns
A, B
2,P25
2,P25
3,P5
3,P6
2,P5
The results shoud be: (2) Because I only want to count the P25 one time.
I'm using Excel 2010

I have two columns in excel, col A and col B.What I would want to achieve is following:
Col A Col B
A 2
A 2
A 2
B 3
B 3
B 3
B 3
C 3
C 3
C 3
Now I want a total of values in column B pertaining to unique (or say 1st occurences) of values in Col A. So in this case the output should be 8 ,Achieved as follows(2 +3+3).

I have a spreadsheet which contains (see illustration below):
1. a column called LEAD ID which contains a unique id
2. a column called WON which signifies if the deal was won/not won (1 = WON, blank = Not Won)
I can have multiples of the same value in the Won and Unique Id field (see illustration below)
I would like to create a formula field which returns the summary of the No. of Deals WON
I need to tie the formula back to the Lead ID and whether or not the WON field contains 1 or not.
I've tried this formula but it won't work
(Lead ID is in Column A, WON is in column B)
=IFERROR(SUM(1/COUNTIF((A:A,A:A) AND(B2=1)),"0")
LEAD ID WON No. Won (Formula field)
abc112 0
abc222 1 .25
abc222 1 .25
abc222 1 .25
abc222 1 .25
abc333 1 1
abc444 0

I'm looking for a SUBTOTAl IF function (if there's any) that would sum all the distinct values in a column for a given criteria based on another column. My data is listed below:
Column A Column B
(Quarter) (Revenue)
Q1 2008 $10
Q1 2008 $10
Q1 2008 $20
Q2 2008 $15
Q3 2008 $25
Q3 2008 $25
I'm looking for a formula to sum the DISTINCT Revenue values for Q1 2008, Q2 2008, and Q3 2008 based on the autofiltered list. The formula result should change dynamically based on the autofilter selection.

I've created a custom Function. I would like for there to be a Helper when a user is entering the Function arguments.
For example if I go into a cell and type in =VLOOKUP(
A popup with appear that shows...VLOOKUP(Lookup_Value,Table_Array,col_index_num,[range_lookup]).
Is it possible for me to build something like this in my Function?

The code below extracts unique distinct values from column A, except cell A1. Then the code adds the extracted unique distinct values to the combo box.
Sub FilterUniqueData()
Dim Lrow As Long, test As New Collection
Dim Value As Variant, temp() As Variant
ReDim temp(0)
On Error Resume Next
With Worksheets("Sheet1")
[Code]....
The vba code below copies the selected value to cell C5 whenever the combobox is selected
Copy the code into a standard module.Assign this macro to the combobox
Sub SelectedValue()
With Worksheets("Sheet1").Shapes("Drop Down 1").ControlFormat Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("C5") = .List(.Value)
End With
End Sub
Vba code belows instanly refresh the combobox when values are added/edited or removed from column A,
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("$A:$A")) Is Nothing Then
Call FilterUniqueData
End If
End Sub
My problem is this:
Everything will be working fine if the all combobox and data can be found in 1 sheet, but how could i make some tweaks if the combo box is located in sheet 2 provided your data to be populated is in sheet 1, i tried everything but the combobox doesnt update,

Data Column
Company ABC
Business DEF
Corporation GHI

Company ABC

Helper Column

The formula needs to be dynamic and it will need to be able to be copied down.

I get a lot of spreadsheets that I need to do an ascending sort on certain columns, but the problem is there is nothing to revert it back to its original sort. Is there a way to add a reference column numbered 1, 2, 3 etc. so i can return to the original order. The spreadsheets can be over 200 lines at times so doing it manually is really irritating.
It doesnt have to be too smart, just something to add a column and add the numbers say 1 - 1000 in ascending order, I can delete the excess as required. I know I could record a macro but that just seems to time consuming to go up to 1000.

I'm using Excel 2007 and have an Employee Scheduling Program that keeps track of 10 employees on a monthly basis (1 worksheet per month). The days of each month are in columns (I thru AM) and my 10 employees are in Rows 6 thru 15, which creates a grid of cells. I use Conditional Formatting to highlight the Weekends, Todays Date, and Holidays. My Sumproduct formula (shown below) is in each of the cells of my grid and places a number (1 to 10 for each employee) from start date to the end date. My Current formula works great as it finds every occurrence of the argument but I need to modify it to include the contents of the Helper Column.
If(Sumproduct(($g$44:$g$74=$c$6)*($m$44:$m$74<=i$4)*($t$44:$t$74>=i$4)),1,0).......

I am trying to create an alphabetised unique list for a report from an Excel master file and have searched the internet for solutions which all only seem to half work for me. I've copied a couple of array formulae below to try what I'm after and what the results are. 'RefSource' is the name I've given to the column of data I'm trying to sort.
{=INDEX(RefSource, MATCH(0, COUNTIF($A$2:A2, RefSource),0))}
This one works when I copy the formula down and gives me the unique list but doesn't sort the it into alphabetical order.
{=INDEX(RefSource, MATCH(MIN(IF(COUNTIF($P$1:P1, List)=0, 1, MAX((COUNTIF(RefSource, "

I have a set of cells and i want it to return all of the distinct or unique values within that matrix. for example, lets say this table charts how many sales an employee makes in a week.
sun mon tues weds thurs fri sat
john doe 1 0 3 2 3 0 0
jane doe 0 8 0 1 0 7 0
james doe 3 3 2 3 2 1 1
the desired output would be: 0,1,2,3,7,8
I don't want to be copying all of the cells or doing a lot of manipulation - i know i can copy, sort, and get unique values that way - i want a formula where as i plug in values, this field is updated to include all of the distinct or unique values.

I'm a huge fan of the DistinctValues function published by C Pearson here: Distinct Values Function
Now I have the problem that I need to get all the distinct values from a 2-dimensional range.

I have this formula that works perfectly in Excel. It counts the unique TEXT values in a column. But it does not work in the VBA editor. Count = SUMPRODUCT((C6:C39<>"")/COUNTIF(C6:C39,C6:C39&""))

I have a workbook with two worksheets:
Input
Entitlment
On workbook called "Input" range A2 downwards are a series of staff names, non unique
When I select the worksheet called "Entitlement" I would like on this sheet range A2 downwards to list staff names in alphabetical order but only unique occurances of a persons name.
eg if on sheet "Input" cell A2="darrenS", A3="darrenS", A4="EdwardG", A5="EdwardH"
upon selecting "Entitlement" sheet
A2 would show "darrenS"
A3 would show "EdwardG"
A4 would show "EdwardH"
I user will then have to enter a number relating to number of accounts in ColumnB
should a name already have an existing number next to it then when the worksheet "Entitlment" is selected again the number will reamin associated to the name. When sorting occurs !

I want to count the number of unique, or distinct, company names in column [C7], subject to two conditions that will exclude certain unique company names from the count.
I should also point out that most company names appear multiple times in column [C7].
a) Count the unique company names in column [C7]...
b) ...including only those companies who have at least one "Yes" in column [C8] somewhere among their records
c) ...and who also have at least one value equal or greater than "1" in column [C15] somewhere among their records
Note that that there is no requirement that the "Yes" and the "1" ever appear in the same record.

this code "Creates a New Workbook" for each item listed in an excel table, then, copy all unique values in their respective Workbook and save it. So, the problem is this. instead of creating a "New Workbook", i want to open a previously created Workbook (template) and do the procedures listed above. Is this posible?
Sub Copy_To_Workbooks()
Dim CalcMode As Long
Dim ws1 As Worksheet
Dim ws2 As Worksheet
Dim WSNew As Worksheet
Dim rng As Range
Dim cell As Range

Dim FileExtStr As String
Dim FileFormatNum As Long
Set ws1 = Sheets("Sheet1") '<<< Change
If Val(Application.Version) < 12 Then
'You use Excel 97-2003
FileExtStr = ".xls": FileFormatNum = -4143
Else
If ws1.Parent.FileFormat = 56 Then
FileExtStr = ".xls": FileFormatNum = 56
Else
FileExtStr = ".xlsx": FileFormatNum = 51
End If

I have data in Column C that looks like this:
John
John
John
Ted
Ted
Ted
Gary
Gary
Is there a macro that can create workbooks based on this data. So, i'd have one workbook that would contain all the Johns and all the other data in Columns A -Z, then another workbook for Ted, and so on...
The number of workbooks I need is not fixed. It all depends on how many names are in column C.

I am working on an exported database and need to make the first 2 words only PROPER. Do you have to use the helper cell ? Also, I practiced with the LEFT, RIGHT commands using the FIND on the spaces. It worked well. And I can extract the first word and make it proper in a helper cell. But I couldn't seem to add the PROPER function to the extract formula string. Would you add it first ?
Below are 2 of the "strings" that I am working on to make the first 2 words proper and then to subsitute the P/N to #.
GENERIC P/N TIES-8 - 8" nylon tie wraps - 100 ...NEWARK ELECTRONICS P/N 81F4613 / PANDUIT P/N FC…

I am creating a helper table so then I can graph my information. But the formula I am using gives me the information. The problem is it skips the first row for every school. So when I select the school's name from the drop down menu in the schools dashboard sheet. The table should update with the grade level.
For example; I select school 1 which has grade 3, 4, & 5. but when I look at the helper table what comes up is grade 4 and 5. the formula I am using is
{=INDEX('2009DATA'!$C$1:$1000,SMALL(IF('2009DATA'!$A$1:$A$1000=$E$3,ROW($A$1:$A$1000),""),ROW()-1))}

I have a data series running horizontally, which gives me monthly values e.g.
Jan 10 - Feb 12 - Mar 11 etc. Imagine the months are in row 2 beginning from column 2, and the values are in column 3.
I would like a formula which adds the three values, and in row 6 column two gives me the total for the quarter (10 + 12 + 11) and displays 33.
The next quarter value, I would like in row 6 column 3, etc.

I have my columns set at a certain width, the cells set to Wrap Text, the Row set to Autofit YET sometimes when I add text, the hashmarks show up as if the cell isnt formatted correctly and Excel cant show all the text. I can resize the cell, change the text whatever, nothing changes. The only way I can fix this is to cut the text out, open a separate worksheet, paste the text into a cell and copy the whole cell BACK into the original spreadsheet, then I have to reformat the text, whereupon it behaves as it is supposed to.
I read about a similiar problem and the reply was that a macro might be causing the error. This is not the case here. This doesnt happen with any regularity so it is very difficult to figure out.
