Finding Single Name In Cell In Cell With Multiple Names (words)

May 8, 2014

Looking for a formula (not macro) that can do the following:

I have a spreadsheet and in one column, it has last names of clients. In the next column, it has full names of clients that are the same account, but different system with different descriptions for the name. I need to lookup the column that just has last name and see if that last name exist anywhere in the "Full name" column. If it does, then I need column C to say "Yes" or something along those lines.

The "full name" column isn't always in the same format and sometimes doesn't even contain the "last name." Sometimes the last name will be first and sometimes there's a comma and sometimes there isn't a comma. The spreadsheet attached shows a good short example of what I'm working with...

Finding Cell Contents Using Names?

Jul 2, 2012

I have a large table of data which I have used the "create name from selection" tool to name according to the top row and left column.

On a separate sheet I want to have another table where the user can choose which data to see.

I have a drop down list which is named and then a column of dates. In the column next to it I want to show the data which is in the cell which corresponds to the selection in the drop down list and the date next to it (named as the top row in the original table).

I have tried to use INDIRECT and VLOOKUP but I can't figure out how to get the contents of a cell to show up.

Format Multiple Cell Values Displayed In Single Cell?

May 24, 2012

I have the following data on a spreadsheet created by a formula:

A1: 1.1234
A2. 2.234
A3: 3.34

I have the data formatted to only have two decimal places so it looks like this:

A1: 1.12
A2: 2.23
A3: 3.34

I'm using the following formula in cell B1 to display the values of those cells in a single cell in order A1,A2,A3:

=A1 & "," & A2 & "," & A3

However when the values of A1, A2 and A3 appear in the in cell B1 they appear as: 1.1234,2.234,3.34

Is there a way I can edit the formula or format something so the values in B1 appear as with only two decimal places? i.e 1.12,2.23,3.34

Search For Multiple Words Within Cell?

Feb 6, 2012

I'm trying to find if the description in Column L has any of the following words: (irrigation, sprinkler, water). The cell does not need to have all of the words, but just 1 to make the IF formula return a yes. view the example below and let me know where I am making the mistake. I don't want the case to be sensitive.

This is what I have so far, but it is only finding the first word.

This example returns nothing:

Text in Column L
Main irrigation line broken Need to repair

Formula in Column S
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH({"sprinkler","irrigation","water"},L203)),"Yes","No")

This example returns Yes:

Text in Column L
Irrigation broken sprinklers and broken lateral li

Formula in Column S
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH({"sprinkler","irrigation","water"},L210)),"Yes","No")

Single Column With Multiple Rows Of Data - Compare Names

Apr 12, 2012

I have a single column with multiple rows of data like this: Afirst last, Bfirst last, Cfirst last (all in one cell) etc.

I want to type some names in one cell in the same format (Afirst last, Cfirst last, Bfirst last) but not order and then check if any of those names exist in the first column and count the results of matches.

So in this example I am looking to count Bfirst last and/or Cfirst last in every cell of column A. I need to use a formula.

Pull Data From Multiple Cells And Concatenate In Single Cell Using Multiple Criteria

Aug 31, 2012

I have a worksheet entitled 'Data'. In this worksheet there is a table consisting of 4 columns plus relevant data:

TABLE 1:

Project
Benefit Type
Delivered or Enabled
Benefit

PJ1
Financial
Delivered
Saving of $4M over 24 months.

[code]....

I have been trying to create a formula that will enable me to pull data from the 'benefit' column(column D) so that the cell contents populate in a single cell in a table in a different worksheet.

TABLE 2:

Financial - Delivered
Financial - Enabled
Tech - Delivered
Tech - Enabled
Green - Delivered
Green - Enabled

[code]....

So, as an example, I am hoping that a formula can be created which pulls the text from relevant cells in column D when criteria from columns A, B and C are met e.g. Tech benefits that are Delivered in PJ2 would populate cell E3 ('Tech -Enabled') in Table 2 with:

Continued maintenance of hardware.

Increased capacity.

Splitting Multiple Entries In Single Cell Into Multiple Columns

Jan 15, 2013

I am looking to split multiple different entries in a single cell into multiple columns and repeat this for all rows

Example (I have the below in a single Cell as column headers)
NCM Server Mgmt VLAN Site ID

Next Line down is the data (Each row in a single cell)
Enabled 10.10.10.0 50 TEST SITE 1
Enabled 10.10.20.0 50 TEST SITE 2
Disabled 10.10.30.0 50 TEST SITE 3

How I could achieve this as I have a number of projects where this would become useful

I know you can use delimiters but with spaces between the values I just can't fathom a way forward.

Multiple Lookups In Single Cell

Jun 13, 2014

I am looking for creating a dynamic meeting log/calendar for my team. There's a couple of elements to my questions below:

I have a log with columns such as "Meeting Date", "Client", "Attendee" and have also set up month calendars on separate tabs which automatically update the dates according to a "Year" toggle using Janoffset, Feboffset, etc.

What I would like to do is have these calendars automatically populate a cell beneath each date with any meetings on that day. The client name and then a space then the attendee in brackets would be sufficient and with each meeting having its own line in the cell).

I have gotten a Vlookup working but have run into two snags: 1) where there is more than one meeting on a single day 2) I can only return one piece of information in the cell or otherwise have it blank, I can't have the client name AND attendee.

Is there any way to lookup all of that information in the one cell or is this just a pipe dream?

I have attached my workbook which contains my workings so far and in the first cell of Jan shown the "ideal" format. I'd like the data in.

Multiple Range Names For The Same Cell

Apr 6, 2007

I understand how to return the address of a particular named range (that I already know the name of). For instance, the following works just fine for me:

MsgBox Range("BreedTestRangeName1").Address

In my current workbook, this returns a messagebox that reads: $C$13. However, cell C13 also has other range-names. Indeed, in my current program, it might have five or six more range names assigned to it. But I do not know how to return these names (if they exist), using only code. That is, I do not know how I can return those names, strictly within VBA. I have tried this

MsgBox Range("C13").Name.Name

But, of course, this only lists one range name; and it looks like it only lists the first one that was assigned to that cell. How can I return the others? If I can return them, I would prefer to avoid printing them anywhere onto a spreadsheet.

Add Multiple SUMIFS Into A Single Cell / Function?

Jun 30, 2014

In a workbook I have a tab with multiple columns containing names, activity codes, billed hours, etc. On another tab I have created a budget for which I use the Excel SUMIFS function to check the database in the first tab for relevant entries and add them together in the budget sheet.

Now here's for the tricky part. On the budget sheet the names are not mentioned, only the job titles. So these are grouped together. This means that the first tab shows only names, while the budget tab only shows the function title.

The function I have used thus far is this:

Formula: [Code] ......

The first part refers to the column containing the billed hours, the second part refers to the column containing the names (criteria range 1), the third part refers to a specific name (criteria 1), the fourth part refers to the column containing the activity codes (criteria range 2), while the fifth part refers to a specific activity code (criteria 2).

This works really well as long as the budget tab only mentions the names, yet it only aggegates at the job title level. Would it be possible to use the same SUMIFS function to search the database for, say, all the names that fall within one specific job title? Essentially that would result in this somewhat bulky function:

Formula: [Code] .....

Clearly, Excel doesn't allow this.

Checking Single Cell For Multiple Values

Nov 12, 2013

I'm trying to validate the data entered into a series of cells each cell can contain a different set of data but the value N/A is also permitted. For example:

Cell A1 could contain a date from 2013-01-01 thru 2013-12-01 but the value N/A is also valid
Cell A2 could contain a decimal from 0.01 thru 302502.23 but the value N/A is also valid
Cell A3 could contain an integer from 3 thru to 9000 but the value N/A is also valid

When the acceptable values are entered then I want to be able to carry on otherwise I want to pop up with an error.

Multiple Stage Multiplication In Single Cell

Dec 18, 2013

I have to maintain freight cost according to the shipment weight. Our shipper has different charges for different scale/quantity of shipment. For example, according to the attached picture; Rate for up to 10 Kilo is $ 20 per kilo. For weight more than 10 kilo and up to 20 kilo, Rate will be $ 15 per kilo and so on.

Now, suppose my shipment weight is 28 kilo. My cost will be $ 200 for 10 kg, $ 150 for next 10 kg and $ 80 for the last 8 kg. In total $ 430.

I have to calculate the total cost separately. I wonder if I could devise a formula by which I could put the weight in a single cell and get the freight cost instantly.

Multiple Numerical Formats In A Single Cell?

Oct 7, 2008

In a single cell, I would like to show 2 values: a currency and a percentage. So A1 and A2 has values, say 50000 and .10 respectively (these are derived via formula, if it's of any relevance). What I ultimately want is "$50,000 and 10%". I've originally thought about adding the "$", " and ", and "%" separately, but I need the currency value to include commas.

Sum Multiple Checkbox Values In Single Cell

Jul 1, 2014

I have an assigned value of 10 to each checkbox that is checked. If the checkbox is selected I want to automatically sum the totals in a cell on my active sheet. Checkboxes are activeX placed directly on a worksheet. I currently have a work around but considering the number of checkboxes I have, coding is going to be a nightmare as I would have to code each one separately. Right now I am summing each box on another sheet and linking the summed total back to active sheet.

[Code] ....

I would like to do all check boxes with one code and sum the total in the active sheet in cell "I7". The set of checkboxes is 1 to 26.

Display Multiple Results In Single Cell?

Feb 25, 2012

I am using excel as a scheduling program. The sheet has days of the month across the top, and staff names down the column. We have 5 shifts D,A,B,C,N. I am using the following formula to display if shifts have been scheduled for the column

if(countifB10:N23,"N")=1,"X","N") i.e for the night shift. I then use conditional formatting to change the cell to green if the night shift has been scheduled, or red if it has not.

I would like to have the results of all 5 formulas display in a single cell, to save Real Estate, then have the cell go green when all shifts have been scheduled for the day (column).

Is this even possible?

Linking Single Cell To Multiple Cells?

Sep 25, 2012

I have values on master sheet and want to link those values to source documents in the same workbook. But the values on master sheets are made up of more than one value on another sheet.

For example on master sheet I have $137,000 that is made up of values in P7 + Q7 + P57 + Q57 on source sheet. If user wants to see where this number is coming from; the user will click the number to go to source document.

On a single valve I linked to the source sheet to a single cell. One thing I was thinking, using conditional format, so if one of the cells is selected in source document the other cells that combine the total of the master sheet cells should be highlighted, just my 2 cents.
