Fill ComboBox With Unique Values From Column

Jun 22, 2008

I need to create a drop-down (or a combo list) list based on a column in a separate worksheet (in the same workbook). The values in the column have many duplications, and I simply want the combo box to return a unique list.

After trying this using various options like drop-down boxes, combo boxes etc it does not seem to work. A drop-down box will return a complete list (including all of the duplicates). In addition the drop-down was linked to a cell and the value returned to the cell was a number based on the position in the list when what I actually wanted was the text. For example - my list in Worksheet 2:

PETS
Cat
Dog
Dog
Cat
Horse
Rabbit...

In Worksheet 1 if I choose 'Dog' from my Combo box (or drop-down) along with showing all of the duplicates it returns '3', instead of what I want 'Dog' and no duplicates.

Auto-populate Combobox - Extracts Unique Distinct Values From Column

Jan 11, 2013

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,

I found this thread which deal with populating unique values in my listbox.

Here is the thread link. [URL] ........

With Sheets("maintenance").Range("c2:c500")
v = .Value
End With
With CreateObject("scripting.dictionary")

Note : I simple tried to check the value of v by giving msgbox (v), just below the line v = .Value.

But I got run-time error 13 : Type mismatch error.

Find A Group Of Unique Rows- Find Non-zero Value In A Column - Fill Column With That Value?

May 27, 2014

There are groups of similar ID numbers in Column J. For a group of similar ID numbers in consecutive rows there is only one row that has a number greater than 0 in its Column L cell and the rest of the cells of Column L for that set of similar IDs is filled with 0s.

First for that unique ID group I need to find out which row is it that has a value greater than zero in its Column L cell.

Then I need to use that value to fill the rest of the 0s in Column L corresponding to that set of Unique IDs.

The process continues with identifying similar IDs in Column J and this time doing the same thing for their Column M. I have attached a sample file that shows the data and how the results need to look like.

Count Unique Values In Column Based On Values In Other Columns

Mar 14, 2014

I'm running into an issue trying to calculate unique values in a Data column based on a few variables in other columns.

My current formula in Summary tab D4:D19 is
{=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IF(Data!$I$3:$I$66<$E$1,IF(Data!$A$3:$A$66=$H$1,
IF(Data!$C$3:$C$66=A4,ROW(Data!$I$3:$I$66)))),ROW(Data!$I$3:$I$66)),1))
+
SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(IF(Data!$I$3:$I$66<$E$1,IF(Data!$A$3:$A$66=$I$1,
IF(Data!$C$3:$C$66=A4,ROW(Data!$I$3:$I$66)))),ROW(Data!$I$3:$I$66)),1))}

This is currently counting the number of times a date value (data column I) appears for that name (A4:A19) in the data when meeting all of the conditions. I need it to instead count the number of times a unique date appears for that name with the additional conditions met (which all appear to work fine).

The results in the pink highlighted cells (Summary column D) should be:

Names starting with A - 3
All others - 2

I've left some other columns in the data with X's so that I can easily convert this back to my working spreadsheet.

Capture Unique Values From 1 Column And Populate The Result Into Another Column

Aug 28, 2009

I have values in COlumn A, probably about 50K rows, The total unique values on the column A is only about 27. I need to capture all those unique values and paste them in column B. I didn't want to do "Advance filtering" since the workbook has many macros's on it that the user simply click on. Im thingking of creating a loop and compare values already pasted in Column b but then that will take too much time to complete the loop. Is there any easier or yet more efficient way to accomplish this?.

Count Unique Frequencies Column A For Pacific Values Column B

Dec 19, 2010

I would need to count unique frequencies in column A, but only for a specified value in column B.

Example:

A|B
1|1
1|1
1|1
2|1
2|1
2|2
2|2
3|2
3|2

I am using Excel 2007 and found this formula that counts all unique frequencies in column A: =SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(A2:A10,A2:A10)>0,1))

In my example, result = 3 Now, I would need to add the possibility to count only for B=1; in my example, result should be = 2.

Count Unique Values In One Column If Other Column Matches?

Oct 18, 2011

How do I count unique values in Column A only if the values in Column B match?

A B
1 a
2 a
1 a
4 b
5 b
1 b

The formula would return "2" for "a", and "3" for b. Basically, there are names in column B, and I want to know how many unique things are in column A for each person. If there is a better way than a formula (pivot table?) that would be great - like a table that has each of the names (from Column B) and the number of unique items from Column A next to each unique name.

I want the macro to go to column F and copy down from the row containing AO NAMES down to the row containing TOTAL with the value within cell C3.

So basically AO NAMES will be the starting point and TOTAL will be the end point for a value to be copied down in a different column.

Example: Value in C3 = EU11

Column B Column F
AO NAME EU11
Chris Wright 1355 EU11
Hazel Thomas 4015EU11
Julie Cunningham 8426EU11

Using DGET To Fill In Values On Whole Column

Sep 30, 2013

I've received a data report where the brand is in an incorrect format, but can be calculated from data in the list.

I have Brand in the format CRY, but it should be in the format CRYS or CRYW (brand + tag for winter or summer). There are other brands that behave in the same way, e.g. THO should become THOS or THOW, PLA should become PLAS or PLAW, FIN should become FINS or FINW.

I've created a new column using IF statements in conjunction with the departure date to work out whether it was a summer or winter booking, and as a result column C is now populated with either Summer13, Winter13/14 or Summer14.

I don't particularly care if it's a summer 13 or 14 booking, they get reported on together. So I now have the brand alongside the season (summer or winter). I built a database to use with the DGET formula:

Brand
Season
Result

CRY
Summer13
CRYS

[Code] ........

And I used DGET to work out what the result should be in column F:

=DGET($N$4:$P$16,"Result",B1:C2)

This works beautifully for Cell F2, but F3 can't seperate the headers (B2 and C2) from the data (B3 and C3) without tripping over B2 and C2.

Array Of Only Unique Column Values

Aug 13, 2007

I need to capture a list of unique usernames appearing in a column on the sheet, and also the number of times each user has a desired value occur for their row (an error). The number of users and the names of the users will change from one sheet to the next making a static solution unworkable. The user names will be unsorted in the column.

My first reflex is to use an array, and an associative array if possible would allow me to reference the user by name, instead of a clumsier index number and iterating through a loop to verify if the user is already stored in the array. I don't know if it's possible in VBS though. I'll add any new users names to this array if they aren't already in there.

Counting Unique Values In A Column?

Jan 17, 2008

How can I count the number of unique values in a column?

I have a spreadsheet that lists transactions that occurred over a one-year period (2007). I need to determine the number of days our facility was operational. No transactions on a particular date (25-Dec-07, for example) and the facility would be considered to have been closed on that date.

On the days that the facility was open, multiple transactions would have occurred on those open days and those multiple tranactions are all reflected in the worksheet.

So I need to count each occurrence of '01-Jan-07', '02-Jan-07', and so on.

Fill Series - Column With Multiple Values?

May 9, 2012

I have a column:

LABEL COUNT
1 of 2
empty cell
1 of 2
empty cell
1 of 2
empty cell
1 of 2
empty cell
1 of 2
empty cell
1 of 16
15 empty cells

I need to fill the empty cell with the "series" (2 of 2, 2 of 16, 3 of 16). This is just an example of data - there are all different series - 1 of 12, 1 of 5, etc.

Anyway - was hoping to highlight the whole column and be able to auto fill instead of having to extend each series. I have tried straightforward fill series which doesnt work of course. I have tried go to special - blanks but cant find right combo to make it work.

Will it work or do I have to either do manually or with a macro?
