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 been trying to solve this problem for the past couple of weeks and I have not been able to do so. I have come to do the operation manually, and it really takes a lot of my time, so if you guys could help me, I would really appreciate it.
Basically the problem is this:
In column "A" I have what I call point numbers for all the data entries.
In column "B" I have the station (or location) at which I vary slightly a parameter (represented by column "E") to give me a value shown in column "D" (the "Z" value, as shown in the sheet).
So basically you can see that my station 0 has 11 different "E" parameters (0, -1, -2.62, -5, etc) and each of them has a "Z" parameter (390.76, 390.775, etc).
What I am trying to do is to come up with a table that shows a summary of the following:
A column with each of the stations (0, 20, 40, etc -- notice that I have some weird numbered stations like 411.89).
Another column with the "E" parameter corresponding to the lowest (or minimum) "Z" parameter within the station range.
And a final column with the minimum "Z" parameter corresponding to its "E" parameter, which is included in the station range
You can see in yellow the way I have been doing this and you can see that it would take me so much time to accomplish the task.
I'm having an issue right now with an employee list that I am working on. What I am trying to do is determine the earliest time that an employee signed in, but the list that I can export may have the same employee on it multiple times in a day.
Here is a sample of the data that I'm using:
Emp No. Time In
9900872 9:00am
9900874 9:03am
9900874 11:00am
9900874 11:45am
9900875 10:15am
9900875 11:45am
What I want to get is the minimums only, so that the list would show:
Emp No. Time In
9900872 9:00am
9900874 9:03am
9900875 10:15am
I know how I could do this in VBA, however I have everything else working without using VBA, so if possible I would like to leave it that way. Also, I do not know if it would matter to the solution, but the employee numbers are always sorted numerically, although their clock in times are not.
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

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.
how do I find the non zero minimum in a column of figures, I want the figure that is greater than 1 returned?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI 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:
A B C D
Time, Available, Processed, Start processing
5 2 0 2
10 0 0 0
15 0 0 0
20 0 0 0
25 5 0 0
30 0 0 0
35 0 0 0
40 0 0 0
45 4 2 4
50 0 4 0
55 7 0 5
60 6 5 6
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?
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: ....
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 $345
-
So every time I put a "-" I would like the MIN formula to trigger in (Row#-1,D)
Sheet 1, column B range is B4:B39 & B54:B85 Data will look like this
20-77
20-77
20-79
20-55
31-251
4-333
Or very similar to it, I want to be able to find in order smallest to largest across 6 cells, meaning in cell c4 I want 4-333, d4 20-55, e4 20-77 and so on for only 6 cells as that is all I have room for on the sheet. of course if there are only 2 sets of data then 3-6 will be blank. but I think if I can get something working I can add that part.
This formula allows me to find the lowest value in column U where column N contains the text "NO".
{=MIN(IF($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 trying to find a way that I could get the MAX value in a group of cells depending on a critieria. The situation is that I have a list of numbers and a list of dates parallel to it. I would like to find the MAX for, say, the numbers corresponding to the month of June. I would like to be able to change the month and get the MAX for each month on request.
Eg.
18-MAY-2007 600
01-JUN-2007 500
02-JUN-2007 400
28-JUN-2007 600
12-JUL-2007 700
17-JUL-2007 200
I need formula that will give me "600" if the month I want is June. Ideally I would not want to have to filter the data, so SUBTOTAL would probably not work for me.
I have a report I am producing that returns some information regarding accounts we deal with. it may be best to explain what I have allready. Firstly I have The total occurences in a specific month and year using the following formula.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find the top two values per group based on multiple criteria. The list I'm working with is not sorted and would be better for it to not have to be sorted as on-the-fly sorts will likely often occur from the raw data and I wouldn't want that to mess up the results I'm looking for here.

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.

first group:
group called myshape1
contains textbox called mytextbox1

contains textbox called mytextbox2
etc
is it possible to call textbox and change it value?
i.e. call the textbox via myshape2.textbox1
I have a column of equipment average utilization percentages. This column is a dynamic name range called "Avg_Util".
Values in this range were created by a calculation that results in a value of "", for equipment which have no utilization as yet, to those with a utilization of anywhere between 16% to 160% for those with actual hours in service.
I need to count how many have a utilization of <=50% and those that have a utilization of >=150%.
COUNTIF didn't work because it apparently counts the "" values (as zeros?)? I didn't fare much better with SUMPRODUCT either, but that could just as easily be the fact that I'm still new to that function. I get the feeling I'm overlooking something regarding working with percentages here to be having so much difficulty with something that just doesn't seem like it ought to be that hard.
I have a Lookup table with a Group and Subgroup field. I have created a range for the Group and also for the Subgroup. On my main page, I have created a list option which allows the user to select the items under Group (Day, Colour and Time).
What I want next to do is based on the primary selection for Group; I want it to filter it on the specific Subgroup. For Example,
The User selects Colour from Group, the Subgroup will subsequently only show the appropriate selection which is Green, White and Yellow, and no further selection.

I'm trying to figure out a way to group columns in a bar graph without displaying them in a cluster, but instead in displaying them individually in a specific order. However, I still want to identify each group with a different color. This is hard to describe, so I'll try my best to illustrate what I'm trying to do with an example. Assume I have three groups of data and within each group I have 2 to 3 items in it with different values. In a list the data would look like this:
Group 1 - Item 1 - $2,000
Group 2 - Item 2 - $1,100
Group 1 - Item 3 - $2,200
Group 1 - Item 4 - $3,200
Group 3 - Item 5 - $1,800
Group 2 - Item 6 - $1,200
Group 1 - Item 7 - $2,500
Group 3 - Item 8 - $2,800
What I want to do is create a bar graph that will still allow me to color all group 1 items as red, all group 2 items as blue, and all group 3 items as green while still showing each bar sorted in the order I've shown above and labeled as items 1 through 8. Then, I want a legend to only show the groups 1 - 3 with their colors. To explain, the graph would look like this:
Bar 1 would be labeled as Item 1, with a value of $2,000, and colored red
Bar 2 would be labeled as Item 2, with a value of $1,100, and colored blue
Bar 3 would be labeled as Item 3, with a value of $2,200, and colored red
Bar 4 would be labeled as Item 4, with a value of $3,200, and colored red
Bar 5 would be labeled as Item 5, with a value of $1,800, and colored green
Bar 6 would be labeled as Item 6, with a value of $1,200, and colored blue
Bar 7 would be labeled as Item 7, with a value of $2,500, and colored red
Bar 8 would be labeled as Item 8, with a value of $2,800, and colored green
Then, the legend would only show the groupings of Group 1, 2, 3, 4 and their associated colors.
(By the way... I know I can do this manually by selecting each bar and customizing the color, but I want an automated way of doing this to reduce maintenance time)

I have a very large database of quotes. I have created a user interface with several textbox inputs, combobox inputs, and checkboxes. When the commandbutton is pressed I need a list of quote numbers to be generated based on the criteria the user input. I found an example program from here that is for ADVANCED EXCEL FIND. It only uses combo boxs and goes to those rows on datasheet. I have text input and checkbox inputs as well and I don't want it to take the user to the rows, I want just the quote numbers from the rows to be sent back to a textbox. I also read over one based on filtering data in a listbox.
This is my first program in VB, but I did quite a bit in C++ before. I can pretty much understand what all the coding says, I just am overwhelmed with it being so large and not sure how to put it all together.
