Find All Matches In Column Range

Jun 13, 2009

The objective of the code is to determine if a value in Column A exists:

- If it does, then copy data from a different worksheet into the row of the worksheet where the value resides
- if it doesnt, then go to the last used row in Column A and add then copy data from a different worksheet into the new row

The portion of the code im having trouble with involves the Finding of the value in Column A, and also the error handling when it doesnt find it.

The code below doesn't handle the error correctly.. for the data set im running the code on, it should find a value in Column A (which it does) but then it also runs the ErrHandler portion..which shouldnt happen.. it should only run the ErrHandler portion if it cant find the value in Column A (which therefore means a new record is required)

Sub UpdateRecords()
Dim fitem As String
Dim nmax As Integer
Dim nRow As Integer
Dim rFoundCell As Range

nRow = 10
nmax = Sheets("Availability").Range("schedulechange").Rows.count

Do While nRow <= nmax ....................

How To Find Matches Between Two Columns And Copy Cells In Row

Jan 15, 2013

I've just started with VBA and are trying to figure out following:

I'm using a validation list where the user choose one of twelve alternatives. The option she or he made is found in one or more rows in column B. If there is a match between the alternative in the validation list and in column B I want to copy some of the cells in the same row as the match in column B (to be exact, I want to copy the cells in column E, J, N and P) to another sheet.

I've succeeded doing this with one row but I don't know how to do without using that same code over and over again until Excel has made it trough all the rows. And there is over 200 of them.

How To Count A Column If It Matches Data From Another Column In Seperate Rows

Feb 6, 2009

I have two columns with dates. Colum A has the date of the deadline of a document while column b has the day it was sent. Column X will display the difference if its a positive integer ( i.e. if the document has been sent after the deadline). Now i have another column Y which displays the month as an integer of when the document was actually received.

Now i need a counter which will count the number of instances a positive integer is registered in column X according to the month in column Y. I have been trying everything but cant figure a simple way to do it. Im doing this so i can be able to see how many documents are sent after the deadline per month.

Find Matches In Multiple Columns And Return Header

Oct 29, 2012

Lets see if I can put this into words.

I am trying to find matches of a specific cell in various columns. Example:

Header 1 -------Header 2----------Header 3
-ABC123-----------abc123--------------abd123
-abd123-----------hjk321---------------hdn234
-Abc123-----------dsd123--------------sds332

If I searched for the value "abc123" I want it to return Headers 1 and 2 in a seperate column. It would not matter if the same value is in one column multiple times

So the results would show me the Column Heading for anything that reads: "abc123", "ABC123", "AbC123", "aBC123"

Is this possible?

Identify Matches Of Combinations & Find Actual Occurence

Apr 28, 2008

I have another challenging solve for a VBA macro. So here it goes, as I have become frustrated trying to make an array formula with no joy. On my sample worksheet provided below this is what I am trying to accomplish:

(Solution cells) B4:I4 looks to the (Combination cells) M5:R10 for a match
If a match is present then cell J4 gives a "win" ,
If no match then cell J4 gives a " lose ".

Next if a win is present in cell J4, then cell K4 looks for when the draw number that matches occurred on from cells A4:A10, then subtracts the two(e.g. solutions cells from combination cells) to give the actual " # of draws to a win ". If no win is present in cell J4, then the default is zero for cell K4

The formula would be copied down thru cells J4:K12

Please refer to sample worksheet attached so that you can understand more clearly of just what I'm trying to do.

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.

Isolate To Matches Of Name Then Find All Instances Of That Name Whose Values Fall Within Range

Jan 3, 2013

In my workbook I have two tabs, the first tab is intended to call on data located on the second tab so I can evaluate & Display it in different ways. Here's what's worked so far. Where I'm stuck is attempts to try and combine the two.

- the second tab is named AW_Items_Import

Examples:

1) Looking on the second tab to count the number of times a object (identified on the first tab in Cell B13) appears
=COUNTIF(AW_Items_Import!J:J,B13)

2) Looking on the second tab for items that fall within a set value range, the ranges specified on the first tab in cells C14 and E14

=COUNTIF(AW_Items_Import!G:G,">=" & C14) - COUNTIF(AW_Items_Import!G:G,">" & E14)

What I want to do, is combine 1) and 2) so I can isolate a search to a name specified on the first tab, THEN count the number of times that item falls within a set range, the range also specified on the first tab.

Sum Numbers In Column If Date In Other Column Matches

Oct 4, 2007

I have a spreadsheet which will be completed by numerous users, with a worksheet reserved for each area. The spreadsheet is to record the number of days lost to training etc on a weekly basis.

Each worksheet has 3 columns – column A DESCRIPTION, column B WEEK COMMENCING DATE and column C DAYS LOST.

The table will be completed by the manager’s as the info becomes available to them.

I will be collating the data on another worksheet and need a formula that will look in column B for all instances of 01/10/07 and then sum the corresponding cells in column C, then do the same for 08/10/07 and so on.

I have attached an example of a page.

I thought it may be VLookup or Sumif, but I don’t know how to go about it.

Macro Used Textbox In Worksheet Rather Than Cell Reference As Criteria To Find Matches

Sep 26, 2013

This is a continuation of thread 182629 [URL] ....

The End User wanted originally to type characters into cell C1 of a worksheet that the macro searched for in another worksheet, copying across every row containing the input.

The responses gave me the following code which worked perfectly:

VB:
With Sheets("PICKLIST")
myFind = "*" & .[c1].Value & "*"
End With
If myFind = "*" & "" & "*" Then Exit Sub

Unfortunately, the user NOW wants a Text Box instead of putting the characters into a cell.

I added a textbox (originally called 'TextBox2' but renamed "Choice") and "Dimed" CHOICE As Range.

Then tried the following code:

VB:
With Sheets("PICKLIST")
myFind = "*" & CHOICE & "*"
End With

But it generates a "RunTime Error 91" - Object variable or With block variable not set.

Return Matches & Non-Matches From Delimited Cells Against List Range

Jan 29, 2010

In my spreadsheet, on the first worksheet called "Working". Column A, called "Results", contains carrot ^ delineated string values in each cell (i.e."john^apple^pear^banana^grape^love^heart^pickle"). The majority of string values in every cell in my "Results" column match a "source" column of Pick-List Values, called "Fruits" in the same spreadsheet, however found in a different worksheet called "Lists" (also in Column A). I want to perform 3 functions against my "Results" Column on worksheet "Working":

1.) Report In Column B: Analyze column "Results" by cell and return carrot delineated string values for only those that match my "Fruits" Pick-List

2.) Report In Column C: Analyze column "Results" by cell and return carrot delineated string values for only those do not match my "Fruits" Pick-List

3.) Report In Column D: Identify and return all unique values in "Column C" as a List.

Attached is a simple example of what I'm trying to accomplish called " Sorting.xls"

Finding Matches From Column B Within Column A

Apr 6, 2012

Here is what I am trying to accomplish.

I have to columns.

I have copied column A from a PDF file. It contains entries like this, all in the same column:

5 0.002HP Direct- 26845 7/1959 Airesearch

This column contains an ID # (5), a description (0.002HP Direct), a part # (26845), a date (7/1959), and a manufacturer (Airesearch). All this info is in one column. This column is 11,000+ entries long.

I have column B which is 45,000+ entries long, and contains ONLY part numbers, like this:

325111

I would like to compare column B to find the matching results from within the text of column A, and put these matches into column C.

Determine Column Value Based On Another Being Yes And With Matches?

Jul 3, 2014

I have a table with this sample data:

A Report Number
B Funding Code
C Approver Code

[Code]....

For cells with column F="NEXT" and matching values in column A (i.e. Rows A2-A5 all match) and "Yes" in any of those same rows (i.e. E2-E5) for column E, column G should read "No". If no "YES"s are in those rows (i.e. E2-E5) then column G should read "Yes".

I can't figure out using VLOOKUP or INDEX and MATCH how to make this work. Would I need to get into VB to do this?

Count Formula For Matches In One Column And Mismatches In Another

Feb 25, 2014

I'm trying to sift through 10000+ rows of results, and I'd like to know if there's a count formula to determine how many times I have matches in one column (name) and mismatches in another column (ID #)

Profile ID |Name | License #
12345 |Debra Nelson |12345678
12345 |Debra Nelson |23456789

I want to count how many times theres a match in the 1st or 2nd column (profile ID, name - those two columns should match) and a mismatch in the 3rd column (License #). I'm not sure if this can be done with a formula, like a COUNTIF, or not.
