I have the table with multi columns and values like in the image below:

how to get the result in the red border.
I have at the top of a table the titles and then 3 rows under it. the titles are text..whereas the rows filled with number.
What i want in a cell is to display the text(of the title) of a corresponding value in the same column!..[simply 'look for a specific number in a table,and display the title of that column).. i input all info but returns #value error!does it not work with text?
I have been assigned a task of finding the lowest cost of four possible solutions however I have quite an extensive list of items to work with. To make this easier, I need to be able to find the lowest cost in my row (which is not sorted by lowest to highest value) and return the column heading associated with that lowest cost.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am having some trouble getting a formula to work. I am building a report that pulls figures from a pivot table in another workbook. I am using a vlookup with match function to get the column index to find the relevant data I want. Where I need to add two columns together I am using sum, with the vlookup & match formulas nested in them e.g.:
=SUM(VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("FAID",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE),VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("COMM",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE),VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("BPCM",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE),VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("COMD",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE))
Where:
F13 = Employee number
Column C on the pivot 156 workbook is where the employee number is based.
The Match formula is then getting the column index from the column headings of the pivot table ie. "FAID"
This in itself works fine, as long as it finds a match in the column headings. This is where i get the error as in the above function "COMD" is not in the pivot table. However I need to keep it included as it may appear on a future pivot table. Is there a way of getting the sum function to complete even though later in the formula it can't complete the vlookup? So it will ignore it, or assume the value is zero if it can't find it? The formula probably needs to do this for all the vlookups as some headings may drop off in future pivot tables.
I'm using the below VBA
Dim c, DataRow
With Data
Set c = . Range("A5:A350"). Find(KPI, LookIn:=xlValues)
If Not c Is Nothing Then
DataRow = c.Row
End If
End With
Now,If KPI is for example = "Favourite Hotel" and if i have data that looks like :
Favourite Hotel - London
Favourite Hotel - Cardiff
Favourite Hotel
Favourite Hotel - Birmingham
Then it seems to not look be looking for an exact match (e.g. Favourite Hotel) and rather is finding the first item in the list that contains the KPI string (E.g. Favourite Hotel - London).
How do i make it search for an exact match?
I have been building a tracker to track benefit payments for child benefits and DLA so I know where I stand and what has been paid.
The problem... its limited and basic an I have to do most things manually, even when I have cell formulas to do some of the legwork.
I stumbled across the term MATCH and SEARCH and I was curious on how to use them for my needs, I was trying to use the LOOKUP set of tools.
My problem...
Benefit rates are set between two date periods, all payment periods are 28 days apart (...but could change to every 7 days) which means that sometimes payments are due 3 weeks of one rate, 1 week of another, the reverse of that or 50:50 depending on the cycle.
A
B
C
[Code]....
The problem should be very evident and especially when I adjust the dates to match what payment dates I finally end up with.
The result of the look up needs to be calculated at the frequency in A14 to B14, A15 to B15 (for example) at the appropriate rate found in D:D when searched for based on the dates in A14 to B14 ... ... etc.
I tried using MATCH to get a match to a date falling between 30/12/2013 and 4/4/2014, I tried this...
=SEARCH(A15,MATCH(B15,A4:F8,1),A15)
which returned #N/A
I have a workbook with two sheets, one used for referance (Column A - Product SKUS, B - Product Description and C - Carton Quantities) - Sheet 1
The other sheet I would like to import incoming shipments. (Column A - Product SKUS, B - Product Description, C - Quantity Ordered and D - No of Cartons) - Sheet 2
What I need to do is find out how to get Excel to find and match up the SKUs in Col A and then dividing Sheet 2's column C by Sheet 1's column C to give the number of incoming cartons of each product in Sheet 2's Column D
I have a formula that has been working perfectly:
[Code] .....
It works until I exceed the MATCH character limit of 255 characters in the range with text. I have tried many alternate formulae found on various posts, but not one that suits my purpose. Is there a simple ISTEXT or another function/formula that will work here?

I've got a sheet here with a master list of document numbers in Column A and a smaller subset in column C. I need to do is for Excel to scan column A for cell C1 and when it finds it in column A i need it to return the corresponding value in B column into cell D1. I need to do this for all column C.

In Sheet 2 i have a 1000 of data contains the birth date of following customers
The result i want in Sheet 1 is
particular on todays (Say on 27-11-2008) date how many customer are having birthday, supoose there 10, or 8 wahtever should show me the list.
I tried this formula
=INDEX(Sheet2!$B:B,MATCH($B$3,Sheet2!$H:$H,0))
but by this formula it only show one customers birthdate what i want if there 10 differenrt customer those same birthdate it should display all the 10 date and name in diff rows
I have a sheet with dates on it, when i open my userform and select a date i want it to go to the sheet and look for a match on the date and select the cell where the match is. There will never be 2 dates that's the same. I have attached an example.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn the attached sheet, I am using !Staff times columns N and O to nominate a mid point break time relevant to the start,lunch break and finish times of a shift.
What I would like to do is match the result to the closest time from !Race Times Column D (highlighted green). So if for example the mid point of the shift is 10:37 (as in !Staff Times cell N23), it actually comes back with the !Race Times result of 10:35 which is the closest actual race.
Ideally I would like it to look both sides of the midpoint time until it came to the closest match, rather than always looking at an earlier time, or always a later time (eg the cell N79 has a value of 11:36, however the 2 race times are 11:35 and 11:40. Preference is it shows 11:35). If however the N79 result was 11:38 or 11:39, I would prefer it went to 11:40).
However if this is not possible then picking the next time in either direction will do.
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.

i want a macro , so that when it is run,
it matches the value in column A with value in Column C
and update the same in Column B
For example the macro should find
A1 Value = abc with C6 Value= abc-sometext
and update
B1 value as = abc-sometext
So after running the macro
the excel sheet should look like this
A-----------------b------------------------c
1 abc abc-sometext klm-sometext

i am trying to find all the 0 in column P and return col M from the same rows, this finds the 1st, how do i find the rest?
=INDEX(M$3:M$100,MATCH("0",P$3:P$100,0))
I am trying to insert a formula to find the name (match?) from one column on say sheet 3 and return the value in the next column.
column a sheet 1
my name
your name
someone else
I would like it to search sheet 3 column a and return value sheet 3 column b
as sheet 3 would look like this
col a / col b
john q / 11a
my name / 13b
someone else/ 9a
your name/ 12b
What my goal is - is to only have to enter the column b in sheet 3 one time per name and have it fill in on sheet 1 for every entry of multiple entries of the same name in column a if that makes sense.
I know this should be simple- I want to avoid the if statement as there will be about 50 names to sort and return the proper class (column b)
Find a match in a column, move over two columns and copy sales amount. I have a column (column A) of week starting dates (52 each -- e.g., 4/10/06, 4/17/06, etc.).
I have captured a date in a vba variable and I would like to search through this column (52 rows) and when I find a match, move over two cells and copy another variable (a sales amount figure)...?
I am going through various excel sheets looking for certain text on them. not all of the sheets will have the text.
I have been using
Cells. Find(What:="FindMe", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt _
:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
False).Activate
and it works fine, if the text is on the sheet. When the text is not on the sheet, how should I handle this.
I have tried On Error and IsError variations, but could use a little guidance
The bottom line is: I want to determine whether a value exists in a column and get beyond #N/A error values if it does not.
I have a range (B15:B26) in which the months of the year that are applicable in a specific situation will be entered using this formula in B16 and copied down to B26:
=IF(D16<$G$5+1,IF(B15<12,B15+1,1),0)
In B14 the starting month is drawn through from G4, e.g. 11 (for November) is entered in G4.
In G5 I enter the term of the investment in months, e.g. 3.
In column D, I start with 1 in D15 and add 1 to the previous cell as you go down column D, e.g. D16 =D15+1.
OK, there you have it, but I attach a file anyway.
Now, I'd like to figure out whether the values 2 or 3 appear in the range B15:B26 once the starting month and the term of the investment have been entered in cells B14 and K5.
If, as an example, I enter 11 (November) as the starting month and 3 as the term, range B15:B26 will show B15=11, B16=12 and B16=1, for January of the new year.
Below that, all cells will show 0, with the result that 2 or 3 does not appear in the range.
I used =MATCH(2,B15:B26,0) to find 2, for example, but if it's not there, it returns the #N/A error value. If it is there, it returns an actual value, and whatever it is, I at least know that 2 is present. This check is in cell I5.
Only the #N/A value shows that it does not exist.
I now want to write an IF function using this error value, but I am really battling with it! If (in cell I6) I use: =IF(ERROR.TYPE(I5)=7,0,MATCH(2,B15:B26,0)). If cell I5 contains the #N/A error (meaning 2 is not present), the aforementioned formula find the answer to the "logical test" true and answers "0". This "0" is easier to use in other functions than the error.type function as far as I am concerned, so I am happy to know that the "0" value in cell I6 indicates that a 2 was not found in the range.
So far so good.
The previous IF function returns the #N/A value if a 2 is found, however!
The MATCH portion of the formula is exactly the same as the other MATCH function in cell I5, so what is wrong with my formula?
What should I do to find out if a 2 (or a 3) exists in the range mentioned?
I have three sets of columns with addresses. I'm looking for a match/index/vlook up formula that can search all three columns and list the matched addresses in another column. Also note that one or two of the columns are formatted differently (although there is enough information to match closely to the other columns where relevant).

I want to create a VBA find routine which allows me to match the date from Sheet2 (Ranged between cells A1:Z1) with Sheet1. Then output a MsgBox stating "Match found in cell $A$7 of Sheet1" I have tried a formula similar to:

This section of code I am working on requires me to find an exact text (I tried lookat:=xlWhole, but I can't get it to work right). The problem being is when it searches for Q1, Q10 is an acceptable answer ans so on. I need to get the 4th occurrence, but my research into Nth occurrence stuff is confusing.
The search is in a single column.
With Workbooks("FY12-Q3 Data Tables.xlsx").Sheets("PBA Crosstabs").Columns(1)
Set c = .Find(rCell, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
Set c = .Find(rCell, After:=c, lookat:=xlWhole)
Set c = .Find(rCell, After:=c, lookat:=xlWhole)
Set c = .Find(rCell, After:=c, lookat:=xlWhole)
End With
How do i find an exact match in a range (Text exactly the same just like the exact function)
=MATCH(A1,B1:B10,0) This will match the rad and Rad to be the same but what i want is the exact match
I know the exact function does not take an range so how can i amend to take this to account?
Something like =Exact(A1,B1:B10)
How can i find the last matched row of a given text

On my worksheet I have the 6 columns below starting in A1.
The Code is an ASX code and the PE is the price earnings for each code for the past 3 years
The 3 code columns A1, C1, E1 are letters and the 3 PE columns B1, D1, F1 are numbers.
I need to match and sort these so the codes with their PE's all match so I can compare them.
Using the codes in A1 to match the rest would be ideal as this is he most recent data.
Every year new stocks are added and some deleted so none of the rows match.
Its hard to post and example so if you need more info please ask.
I have very basic vb skills and may be able to adapt some code already posted if anyone knows of some.
