Duplicate Values For VLookup - How To Receive Data Back
May 23, 2014
I have a situation where I have about 20000 lines to populate and looking for a quicker alternative. I have duplicate numerical values in the lookup_value. I want the same number to appear for all lookup_value's but there is only one instance of that value on the other sheet I am searching. My table looks like this:
I want to lookup for 160990 (B12), and if the value is found, I want the values returned to be the ones in A9,B9,C9. But when I lookup 00002 (B17), the values returned to be the ones in A15,B15,C15.
I have ~200pages, but I don't need all the data, I only need to lookup some values I already have in another Excel file. I have a weird format because I converted the file from a PDF.
I have an interesting problem where I am trying to display a list of top ten ranked items and I have multiple items tying for a rank, creating two or more values for one rank.
I have a table that shows the ranking, numbers 1 to 10. I'm using a vlookup formula to find the rank and return the corresponding name from my data table.
The problem I have is there are two that are tied for 3rd place, so I have two ranking at three. The current table looks something like this:
1 Warren 2 Stan 3 Mike 4 #N/A 5 Dan
I can change my table so that the numbers on the left are dynamic so it will display the number 3 twice if there are multiples of the same ranking, but when I do my lookup I'm still stuck.
Is there a way to return the second "3" on the lookup? Or is there a better way to solve the issue?
Reptile Dog Red Reptile Tiger Purple Mammal Tiger Stripes Mammal Tiger Spots Mammal Racoon Black Mammal Cat Plaid Mammal Dog Brown Mammal Dog Purple Reptile Dog Red Reptile Tiger Purple Tree Dog Orange Tree Pine Green
I would like to use this data to populate within a seperate worksheet that reads:
Essentially pulling all of one duplicate item within a column. The problem I ran into is when I run a vlookup within the entire table, it gave me duplicates.
Basically, it gave me... Mammal, Tiger, Stripes Mammal, Tiger, Stripes Mammal, Tiger, Stripes Mammal Tiger Spots
I know this is because of the array, just forwarding to the next item, and rerunning the lookup... since Mammal is not at the top... it has to wait till the array gets to the area of "mammal".
How do I create the list, so it will not create the duplicates... like in the example I gave.
I have a spreadsheet with over 20,000 rows. From another spreadsheet I need to find if any of a list of 90 customers are within the first, using a simple IF and vlookup formula which comes back yes or no.
I am using: =IF(A2 = VLOOKUP(A2,ihcust!B:B,1),"YES","NO")
However, although this works when they are spelt exact in both sheets if they are not it will say no. eg. If I was Looking up "Joe's Icecreams" from the list of 90 but in the other sheet it is listed as "Joe's Icecreams (admin)" it would not recognise it and come back no.
B7 = Last Name Left(C7,2) = First 2 Letters of the First Name $D$2:$D$601 = Hours Worked
My only problem is that some staff show up in the list on "Data 1" twice as they work in 2 separate stores and I am only getting the hours worked at the first store. Is there a way to have excel add the hours for both stores? My data is sorted alphabetically so they will be one above the other.
I'm having some problems with the removal of duplicate values in a time series. The time series consist of stock data for about 10000 firms, but about 3000 of these firms died(delisted) before the end of the sample. The database I used to extract these data, however, does not remove the firm values from the sample, but keeps the last known value of the firm for the remainder of the time. Therefore, I need to remove these duplicate values, but only if they are sequential. Furthermore, normally if you remove duplicate values, excel will delete the cell and shift the data upwards, since it's a time-series I would rather have excel just blanking out the cell instead of removing it.
I've looked at normal solutions, like using the countif functionallity in excel, but this is not feasible because of the size of the worksheet, also, it does remove non-sequential duplicate values as well.
summary:
- Want to remove duplicate values, but only sequential values.( It's possible firm value is the same somewhere in the time period)
- The cells should be blanked out instead of deleted.
I have a worksheet that has 3 duplicate values in a particular column, I need a macros that will highlight two of the duplicates row and then another macro to delete the entire row. The duplicate element are in column R. find attached worksheet.
I am using the following macro to insert the word "Duplicate" in the first blank column next to a duplicate row. My data is sorted by the first column. Data Example:
12345 a 12345 a DUPLICATE 11111 b 23123 b
Here is the macro I am using and it does not work. It marks the first duplicate it finds then goes into an infinite loop. Any Idea where I went wrong?
Sub MarkDupes() x = ActiveCell.Row y = x + 1 Do While Cells(x, 1).Value <> "" Do While Cells(y, 1).Value <> "" If (Cells(x, 1).Value = Cells(y, 1).Value) Then Cells(y, 3).Formula = "Duplicate" Else y = y + 1 End If Loop x = x + 1 y = x + 1 Loop End Sub
I have 2 spreadsheets. One is a promotion calendar that lists the dates that promotions on a certain product runs. The other is a shipment grid of shipments of that product to the customer.
I want VLookup to find the customer and the dates and then bring me back an asterisk in a separate column to show me that that certain week that product was delivered was a promotion week. The problem I have is using Vlookup to lookup 2 things at once (and if they match to the promotion calendar) and return me an asterisk.
I have 4 columns in my spreadsheet. I am trying to find any duplicates that may exist in Col A, sum values in Col D, then delete the entire row. So far my sheet before I run my vba code is this.
Col A 100 101 102 105 100 101 102 105
Col D 5 4 2 4 1 2 3 1
After my code is run, I need for my spreadsheet to look like this
Col A 100 101 102 105
Col D 6 6 5 5
I have some code but I still need to do a considerable amount of tweaking to it. Currently my code is only deleting the duplicate values in Col A. I am having difficulty summing the values in Col D as well as deleting the entire row.
Here is my code thus far....
------- Public Sub FindDuplicates() For RwCnt = 1 To (Worksheets(1).Cells(65536, 1).End(xlUp).Row) SrchValue = Worksheets(1).Cells(RwCnt, 1).Value If Len(Trim(SrchValue)) > 0 Then With Worksheets(1).Range("a1:a" & Cells(65536, 1).End(xlUp).Row)

I have a sheet (see Sheet 1) from a report we run which lists the following information: Personnel Number, Amount, Wage Type. This is generated for 1000's of employees, with each personnel number being repeated several times in column A.
I am trying to pull specific data to another sheet (see Sheet 2), which would ideally generate the sum of "Amount' for a specific wage type for each personnel number. The issue is is that there may be dplicates of the wage type for each ID number (which is also repeated).
For example, the total salary amount on sheet 2 for ID#12345678 would be 0, while for #9876543 it would be 1250. Is there a formula I could use on sheet 2 column B that would generate this?
I am able to quite easily count the number of specific values in a cell after the table has been filtered. However, the problem I have run into is that some times the data needs to be placed into the spreadsheet twice (or to be more specific the same subject is associated with several unique data points).
What I need: some way to count the instance of some give value in column D only once based on the presence of a duplicate (unique) identifier in column C. However, when I filter the entire database, it must count *only* the filtered cells and not the hidden cells as well.
Picture: Column C Column D 111111 M 111111 M 111111 M
[Code]....
Currently calculates: M=9, F=2
Right now it incorrectly states there are 9 "M" from column D when it really should be 5 since 3 are duplicate values. My main difficulty is making sure this continues to work after I filter the entire sheet (say column ZZ) and have a bunch of hidden cells.
Equation currently using to count only filtered values (in this case "males" and "females"): ="M = " & SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(D3:D13,ROW(D3:D13)-MIN(ROW(D3:D13)),,1))*(D3:D13="M"))
I am doing a spread sheet for participation in a class. What I want is for whenever a student is absent, i.e. has a 0 in their point box for the day, that cell turns red. I have tried to make the .find method work but it has been uncooperative and so far and I can't seem to get it to even run. This is what I have so far:
HTML Code:
Private Sub For_Loop_Click() Set v = .Find(0, LookIn:=xlValues) For Each v In [B6:B46] Do If v.Value = 0 Then v.Interior.ColorIndext = 3 Set c = .FindNext(c)
I want to use vlookup up function to search for a specific data set. when it finds it i want it to look 2 columns over and add the value then continue to search for the specific data set again in the range provided in the vlookup, when it finds another matching the criteria look 2 columns over and add that cell value to the previous count.
keep a running total until it has looked through the whole sheet. here is an example of the vlookup i am using, it is not suming because thats where im stuck. also a quick data set to picture what i am talking about. In the data set in plain terms i want to look for the line name and add the qty on that line into a chart.
In a userform I have 6 DTPlcker controls for 3 periods (from...to... X3). The dates chosen are not saved unfortunately and once I exit and retrieve the file again all the dates in the 6 DTpickers get the date of today.
See the below columns: Column A and Column B. I would like to get all the data in column A to become column names and the data assorted under these column names vertically.
Column A Column B
0_country Canada
0_employee_type HE
0_province" AB
[Code] .........
I would like the end result to look like this
0_Country 0_employee type 0_province Canada HE AB USA HO CA UK HL XY
I want to check with the vlookup function and some other form of either index or other function where if I check (enter an ID) an ITEM ID and then it will tell me how many different products have been assigned to that ID ITEM. In some cases the ITEM ID has only used One Product, whereas other ITEM ID's have used muliple products.
I have attached an example of what I am trying to achive (its possible the same ITEM ID could have several products used against it.
i have the following macro which finds instances of a search criteria and brings them back to a results column. what i need is instead of having the word GD: appear before each result i need it once at the begining of the results
LastRow = Sheets("design owb").Cells(Rows.Count, 10).End(xlUp).Row Application.ScreenUpdating = False For i = 26 To LastRow Target = Sheets("design owb").Cells(i, 10) With Sheets("design") For J = 2 To 54 For K = 4 To 11 If Target = .Cells(J, K) Then Sheets("design owb").Cells(i, 11) = Sheets("design owb").Cells(i, 11) + "GD: " & .Cells(J, 15) + " | " End If Next K Next J End With Next i Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Where each (i.e., A1) represents a location. I have tried to use a coordinate system but this will not work for the back-to-back locations. (Assuming each location is 2 feet wide, For example A1 to C1 is 4 feet apart, not 2 feet (as Euclidean or rectilinear would calculate it as).
Would there be a way to incorporate an if statement for those locations that are back-to-back? As a rectilinear distance calculation would work as long as the locations are not part of the same "block".
Ultimately I am looking to have a matrix which contains all the distances between each location:
I've found a nice looking formula for looking up multiple values from a Data Validation List which you can find here.
Unfortunately I dont know why im getting a #REF! error for one of my spreadsheets. Here is my Formula {=SUM(VLOOKUP(A2,D:D,{6,7,8},0))}
A2 is the Data Validation drop down list that has most of the Values (Letters & Numbers) I want to look up. D:D is where it will find the Values (Letters & Numbers) and {6,7,8} is the currency I want added up and displayed.
I've tried this formula on other spreadsheets with success, but no success with the spreadsheet im working on currently.
I have a template whereby it show agent hourly performance. I unable to use vlookup formula because duplicate id with different interval. If I select id 1977 it will auto update agent performance it the table according to the interval.
Writing this workbook in 2007, but it will be used in 2003. Have searched but can't find answer to this. I have a 5-column (A to E) table array and I'm using VLOOKUP in several other cells to return values in col2, 3, 4 & 5 with my lookup value being col 1. However, col 1 will contain numbers which occur more than once. How can I get VLOOKUP (or something else?) to pick the last occurence (lowest row) and use that one? Also, the array will be sorted - smallest to largest - as the rows go down - how will the SORT work on duplicate entries? I'd like, if possible, for the entry made most recently to be the lowest of the duplicate entries so that VLOOKUP (or whatever) will pick that one to use. Will any kind of SORT do that?
