Finding Minimum Value In Column That Has Blanks And Break?
Aug 15, 2013
Sheet 1, column B range is B4:B39 & B54:B85 Data will look like this
20-77
20-77
20-79
20-55
31-251
4-333
Or very similar to it, I want to be able to find in order smallest to largest across 6 cells, meaning in cell c4 I want 4-333, d4 20-55, e4 20-77 and so on for only 6 cells as that is all I have room for on the sheet. of course if there are only 2 sets of data then 3-6 will be blank. but I think if I can get something working I can add that part.
Say I have 2 columns that in basic form look like this:
Column A Column B Jan 1 Feb 0 Mar 7 Apr 4 May 15 Jun 2 Jul 5 Aug 4
First I want to look up the max value in this column. This is easy =max(b1:b8) Then I want to know the minimum value that occurs after the maximum value. Thus the answer would be 2.
I need to find the minimum difference between any two elements in a row or a column. While it's easy to do for a 3-4 elements by doing subtractions for all elements in the array, doing it for more elements leads to a very long formula.
For example, I need to find the difference between any two elements between C5 and C9: ....
This formula allows me to find the lowest value in column U where column N contains the text "NO".
{=MIN(IF($N$2:$N$10000="NO",$U$2:$U$10000))}
I want to add another condition so that the formula only returns the lowest value in column U where (i) column N contains the text "NO" and also (ii) column F contains the text "YES".
I'm having a tough time writing a formula to return the min value for a particular item while ignoring blanks.
In the attached example, I'd like the result of cell E3 = 1 (the minimum for Texas). What the best formula to compute the min value for Texas (ignoring blanks)?
I tried several iterations of sumproduct, small, and few index matches. no luck.
Several thousand rows, column A is name, column B is city, column C is $.
I want to see the max, min, median for all first names.
=SUMPRODUCT(MAX((Name=Joe)*($))) - seems to work fine =SUMPRODUCT(min((Name=Joe)*($))) - will not work, zeros come through, even if there are no 0's for Joe =SUMPRODUCT((Name=Joe)*(SMALL($,1))) - wrong answer
I have managed to make a work queue and lots of other stuff for the model, but I can't get it to take orders in the way I want it. Each order has a order number (from 1 to 100) and the orders come in almost randomly e.g. 3, 5, 11, 2, 7, etc. What I want to do is to take the smallest available order that has not been processed in.
The available orders column and processed orders look something like this:
Zero means no new orders or no processed orders. Now the Start processing column should select the smallest not processed order if previous order has been processed.
A have, for now at least, all other problems solved, but can't figure out how to get start processing column check for the smallest not processed order line. I have tried combination of Min and Max functions with If, but it soon requires too many Ifs to make any sense out of it. I also tried the Dmin function, but it wasn't up to the task becouse the model requires ~1000 lines and as Dmin only takes criterias vertically I ran out of columns . So how could find minimum from row one until current row excluding values processed so far and only checking orders available so far?
What I am attempting to do is find the MIN value in Column C where values in Column A are equal.
The data would look like this
A B C D (D:D is where the "MIN" Formula will be) Scope1 NameA $100 Scope1 NameB $145 Scope1 NameC $115 $100 (I want the min value to show up here) - (this would trigger a break between scopes, and provide a conditional format separator) Scope2 NameE $450 Scope2 NameG $345 Scope2 NameX $415 $345 -
So every time I put a "-" I would like the MIN formula to trigger in (Row#-1,D)
I've attached an example of the data I am trying to solve this problem for. Basically I am looking for strings of 26 blanks or more in a row, but I want to determine the ending location of the last string of 26+ blanks. I've been able to determine the location of the maximum string of blanks, but that max group of blanks isn't always the last set over 26.
Any link to find the location of last string of blanks of 26 or more? The example I attached is a good example since there are two strings of 26+ blanks with the last one being shorter. I've also include the answer I'm looking at the end of the data in the example.
My problem is the increase in calls from 03/01 to 05/01 YTD ISN'T 25, it's 6.
Is there a formulae I can use that works out the difference between the latest number of calls taken and the last number of calls taken (excluding the 'blank' cells)?
I want to find the minimum value of column A if there is anything greater than zero in column B. I tried this formula (simplified): MINIF(B2:B6,">"&0,A2:A6) And it gives me the # NAME? error
Attached is a print screen. I'm struggling with using the min function in vba. I want it to find the minimum cumulative cost in week 0 out of the first three, and the copy the permutations of it (1,0 or 1, 1 , e.t.c.) to Week one column C & D of the model.
I have a spreadsheet with two columns - one with names, the other with values. In some cases, the values column alongside a name is blank. Is there a formula-driven method (not a pivot table) that could produce a separate list of only the names that have a value in the value column? The formula needs to be dynamic, not produced via a filter.
I'm trying to work with a coworker get a list of addresses in a specific format. She received the file in notepad and I have saved the file in excel and the data looks like this. The addresses are all in column A and are 5 or 6 rows long and seperate by 1 or 2 blank rows of data.

We are trying to get the data to look like this:

There are roughly 5000 rows of data currently so if we have to copy and transpose each 5 or 6 lines of data into a row it will take a long time. Also I figure if I can at least get all the data into rows I can text to columns to split out the city, state, and zip.
I would like to find min value in column B for 1 order number (they are sorted Asc). Values must be shown in column C (currently are in column C expected values).
getting printed output to page break when the value in a sorted column changes. My spreadsheet is a basic list where one column identifies a responsible organization. I need the output to page break when the responsible organization changes.
I have a 10x10 array that represents different cities that a travelling saleperson can travel to. Rows are cities designated as i values, columns are the same cities and represented by j values. I need to use a For, Next loop to determine the shortest distance (lowest value) in a given column. The i (row) that contained the lowest value is the first city to be visted and a boolean is entered for that j=i column, showing that the city has been visited. When pulling the minimum values from the column I need to ignore 0 values where the distance is between a city and itself. I'm having trouble coming up with a loop that takes identifies the i row with the lowest value that also ignores previously visited cities and takes the boolean into account. Maybe my Excel spreadhseet will clear up what I'm trying to do, The distances were generated using RANDBETWEEN(1,100).
I want to create an automatic page break at each value change in Column A, and also a page footer that "restarts" at each change in the same column. For example, I would like a "Page x of y" footer, but I don't want "Page 1 of 3,500", I want "Page 1 of 3", etc...every time that Column A value changes.
I need command that takes in consideration values from column F only if in column B is value 4.8. And than, I need minimum value of those taken in consideration .d.png here is attached picture regarding my problem.
I have a table that contains various aspects of information about customer cases, and I want to replicate a user 'picking up' the case by a simple press of a button. Users have access to only one Country, so I want to be able to search a particular column for the lowest value, but check that the Country for that row matches the user's access. If it doesn't, I then want to find the next lowest value in the column, and this is what's perplexing me??? As mentioned, I want to click a button to trigger this, and therefore want to use VBA code.
I am trying to find a way to code to replace any cell that is not blank with the text "LOA", then after I replace all blanks with "Active"
The Replace blanks is easy: Columns("K").Replace What:="", Replacement:="Active", LookAt:=xlPart, _ SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False, _ ReplaceFormat:=False
but before this I dont really know how to quickly replace all non blank rows. Only way I know is to loop thru all cells in the column checking for not equal to "" then replacing, but the code above for replacing blanks is elegant, and only replaces in the used data section.
