Find Function Over Two Spreadsheets
Jul 1, 2005
I have two spreadsheets, which have over 10,000 entries and I am trying to compare them both for duplicates. I would like to know whether or not there is any VBA coding which will allow me to copy a cell from one spreadsheet and look for it in the other spreadsheet.
The major problem which I am facing is the information which I am trying to look for is constantly changing and therefore is more or less unknown to me. I am hoping for some VBA coding which will allow me to copy whatever is in cell A1 and find it in the other spreadsheet which I have, and then do the same for A2,A3 and so forth.

I have two spreadsheets. Spreadsheet 1 has 6 columns and column E has a list of numbers. It runs from E2:E739.
Spreadsheet 2 has 9 columns and column A has the numbers I need matched against. Column A runs from A9:A5027. How can I find the numbers from Spreadsheet 1, Column E that are also in Spreadsheet 2, Column A. Once matched I would like to highlight the ROW on spreadsheet 1 that has a match.

I run an online baseball league, and the game I use to simulate our games has issued a new version which has updated ratings for all the baseball players. I have exported rosters from the new game and rosters from my online league to .csv files and what I want to do is find which players are duplicates in both files and line them so that I can scroll both files simultaneously and update my online league file easily. I also want the non-duplicate players to be sorted below the duplicates so I can deal with them later. Someone on the other forum posted some dynamic named range code and two macros and gave me some vague instructions on how to use the codes. I have posted the codes below with their instructions:
In both:
a) There're defined 2 dynamic named ranges:
"DataTable" as: =DESREF(INDIRECTO(DIRECCION(COINCIDIR("//Player ID";updated_rosters!$A:$A;0)+2;1;1;1;"ml_rosters"));;;CONTARA(updated_rosters!$A:$A)-
[Code]....

I am using "FIND" method for comparing two columns in 2 spreadsheets. So if cell value in sheet1 matches with cell value in sheet2 then copy multiple columns from sheet2 to sheet1 (similar to what VLOOKUP does but I need to return multiple values if the comparison is true).
Values that I comparing are in Column A in both the sheets. Is match I need to return values from about 20 columns (from sheet2 to sheet1). One value that I am returning is in Column B, I was able to get that working. but other values are in columns starting from M. I do not know how to get those values from Sheet2 to Sheet1.
Following is the portion of code that deals with this FIND method
Code:
Set wsTools = Worksheets("AllTools")
Set wsToolParts = Worksheets("Tools and Parts")
Set ToolPartsRange = wsToolParts.Range("A2:A" & lR)
Set AllToolRange = wsTools.Range("A2:A" & lR3)
For Each ToolPartsCells In ToolPartsRange
[Code] .....
As you may notice that the following line brings next column (B) back but I do not know how to get other column values. They are in columns from M to Z
Code:
ToolPartsCells.Offset(, 1) = ToolCells.Offset(, 1)

I have a range of cells, for this example I will use 2.
Cell E17 = 77/170
Cell E18 = 8/9
Using the following formula: =SUM(RIGHT(E17,FIND("/",E17)))+SUM(RIGHT(E18,FIND("/",E18)))
This bring back an #VALUE! Error as the second part of the formula keeps picking up "/9" however the first part works fine, displaying "170"
Now if I use:
=SUM(RIGHT(E17,FIND("/",E17)))+SUM(RIGHT(E18,FIND("/",E18)-1))
It all works. The problem is that I need this to be automatic using the above way means having to add a "-1" to every formula for a cell with only 1 char to be added.
Using the formula:
=SUM(RIGHT(E17,FIND("/",E17)-1))+SUM(RIGHT(E18,FIND("/",E18)-1)).....

So I have 2 worksheets. One has a list of Player Names. The other has a list of Plays that any of these players could have been involved in (or they may not have been involved in).
I am trying to use the find function to find anyone of those player names from sheet 1 in each of the plays. My functions currently stands at
=FIND(('Dinas Roster'!$A$2:$A$21),I6,1)
Where Dinas Roster is the list of players and I6 is a particular play and would go to I7, I8....which are the plays,
This isn't working as I am getting all #Value. If I just do it for 1 Player (i.e. Dinas Roster'!$A$2) it works and returns a number on each line that player shows up in...

I need a find anywhere function.
Example
text to find is in ZZ1
area to find the text is A1:BB500
It could be anywhere in that area.
I don't want to do the find command 1000+ times for all the data i need to search for.
Vlookup is just column A, i need column A:BB
I have no idea what column or row it would be in.
basically, look for text from sheet2A1 anywhere in sheet1

I'm looking for something simple that will let me type in a 5 digit numeric value and then when it finds the associated value, will add +1 to the associated col/row.
Such as, type 11111 in the box, click the button...When it finds the data on say row 8, col A it will then add +1 to row 8, col G.
I'm not sure of the best way to do this...I'm not exactly new to excel, but it has been a VERY long time (10 years!) since I've used it in this aspect...Just trying to help a friend out.

I have this source data that has different types of currencies in it. It will be processed by a marco. But Before i do the processing, i would like excel to check if all currencies in the source data have had their rates determined by the user in another worksheet. This is the code i am using. However, when the marco trys to find rates that has not been determined (cannot be found in remarks sheets), it will just skip the msgbox code.
Find = Cells.Find(What:=local_currency, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Select
If Find = True And ActiveCell.Next.Next.Value <> "" Then
Find = Empty
Else
MsgBox "The currency " & local_currency & " does not exist in the currency list"
Sheets("Remarks").Select
End If

I use a lot the function “Find” in Excel but the problem is that it takes a lot of time, so I’m searching for another function or code that can be faster than that, the Worksheets that I use in Excel contain thousands of sheets so it takes hours to execute the Macro.

I need to try to cobble together a function nest or whatever I have to do, which will tell me if the number 9 exists anywhere within
a range of cells. The 9 could be just one character of a larger number (i.e. 1496), or it could be just a nine. I know that I could
use filtering or use the find feature with the dialog box, but I need a formula instead. Also, I just need to know a true or false;
I don't need to know where the nine is or any other info. I just need to know if it is there.

I have a column of values (text) to choose from. I need to randomly assign them to names.
There are more values then names.
Each name has to have a value.
Each value has to be used only one time.
Not every value has to be used.
Column B contains names, column Q contains values.
Now. So far I've come up with below:
Code:
Sub randomize()
Dim Random As Integer[code].....
"Random" returns exactly the amount of values in column Q, so this works ok.
"i" counts iterations correctly, meaning as many times as names in column B.
I tried useing Match to rule out already used value but this code returns "unable to get Match property of the WorksheetFunction class" error.

how to make the << and >> buttons as well as the find button work on this form. Here is the code for the >> (next Record) button.

I am having trouble with the following code. When I put in a value in C8 that is on the list being searched (A2:A27), the Answer is still coming up as false (ie, the find function isn't finding the variable in the list, though it is there). I'm guessing I'm using incorrect syntax somewhere.
Dim Answer As Boolean
Private Sub CalcBi_Click()
Dim Pledge, Edate, PR, PPA, EEA As Double
Dim Due, Chdate As Date
If Range("C6").Value = "" Or Range("C8").Value = "" Then
Exit Sub
Else
Pledge = Range("C6").Value
Edate = DateValue(Range("C8").Value)
Set rngschedule = Worksheets("Bi Weekly Schedule").Range("A2").Offset(Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(Range("C8"), Worksheets("Bi Weekly Schedule").Range("A2:A27"), 1), 0).....................

What I'm doing in this script is taking a whole bunch of variables and pasting them into a seperate sheet "Checks" which will construct a cashiers check. The problem is where I've highlighted the code in red. At that point I have copied the Vendor name to the clipboard - I then go to the "Vendor Info" page and search for that Vendor name. If that name exists on the page it works perfectly...moving one column to the right, grabbing the Address Line 1 and dropping it into the check, then going back and grabbing the Address Line 2 and dropping it into the check. The problem is when that Vendor name doesn't exist in the "Vendor Info" page...I want it to just paste two blank cells into the check (because I obviously don't have the address info for that Vendor)...but instead it gives me an error:
Run-Time error '91':

I am comparing two series of data, a daily series and a weekly series, to make calculations. The "F" column is daily data and the "I" is weekly.
The formula I am using is:
=IF(AND( SUM(I58:I62)<F62,I63>F63),B64,0)
The data I need to use in the "F" column in place of "F62" is always on a Friday.
I had taken "F62" which is the preceding working day's data. In fact I need to take the preceding Fridays data in column "F" as I need to compare the week to week trends. Due to bank holidays I cannot count back form F62 to get the data. There is always end of week data recorded on Fridays even though it may be a bank holiday.
I have the dates in the "H" column. Can a date reference be used in the formula to find the Friday data in column "F"? Or is there another solution to this problem?

I am writing VBA code that dissects a cell which always contains some alphanumeric characters a colon ":", some more characters, another colon ":" and some more characters.
For Example this is what is in my cell "Deposit:93121:Southern California"
what I need is to cut and paste everything that is located after the 2nd colon ":"
Say that my cell is D433 and in non-vba world I can chop off the first part of the cell to the left of the first colon ":" by using the following formula:
=MID(D433, FIND(":",D433)+1,50)
assuming there are less than 50 characters in my cell, which is a safe number, then I cut and pastespecial this cell as values into the same cell and repeat that same formula and voila, what remains in cell D433 is what I am looking for "Southern California"
how can I replicate this surgical process in VBA, is there a way to combine this process in one command on any given target cell?

I'm in a workbook, and I want to look up a name. CTRLF or clicking on the binoculars both bring up the expected dialog box, but when I populate "Find What" and either hit enter, click Find All or Find Next, nothing happens.
The only thing I can think of is that I created a macro to function in one sheet only, then saved this workbook as .xlsm. But that doesn't seem right.
