Formula To Automatically Isolate Last Three Entries?
Dec 22, 2012Currently in Column B for all the rows I have a basic math formula which adds the last three entries for that row and divides them by 3. Currently, I constantly am needing to readjust the formula to include the correct columns for each row every time a new column entry is added. I am looking to set it up so it automatically sets the formula to read the last 3 entries without having to manually adjust the formula to D+E+F= to E+F+G= ect... when a new entry is added.

Apr 1, 2009I need a formula that calculates the values of 5 seperate cells located in different places throughout my sheet. The value will either be numerical or display a text value (normally "RD").

Numbers And Text In Same Cell & Tally In A Formula
May 10, 2008Can numbers and text be included in the same cell and still have the number be included in the total in a formula in another cell? Or must a cell only have numeric values for it to be seen/included in a formula's total value.
I'm trying to create a database that totals materials for a construction project. I want to display the number of doors for a house in a row of cells and have the all the doors totaled in the last cell. This I have no trouble doing.
The problem arises when I want to add some text information about the style of each door in the same cell that the number of doors is shown. As soon as text information is added to a cell that has numeric information, that cells numeric information is not included in the final total in the last cell in the row.
I resorted to using comments instead, but, when the are made visible on the spreadsheet, they don't seem to lock to a relative position regarding the cell they're attached to. For instance, if I widen columns or make any significant spatial changes to the spreadsheet, the comments don't move with the changes.
There may be a way to lock comments to stay in a relative position regarding the cell they're attached to. And if that's the only way to make comments for the items in each cell stay with the cell, then I'll have to use that method. But I'd rather not have to use the comments function at all.
I'd much rather be able to have numbers and text be in the same cell, and still have the number value of that cell be included in a formula total at the end of a row of numeric information.
Example: (In this example separate cells that include both numeric values and text are indicated by parenthesis. The final cell that has the formula that totals the numeric information in the separate cells is indicated by brackets)
(30, raised panel doors, unpainted) (10, raised panel doors, white)

Array SUMIF Formula To Sum If Numbers But It Not Place Text?
Feb 10, 2014I have a list of Items and the quantities of those items on one sheet. Each item has a section location number as well. (three Columns, Item, Quantity, and Section Location). the list can repeat the same item multiple times.
This is why I then have a summary sheet to uses a SUMIF formula to sum the quantities of a given item that are in a givin section. which my SUMIF Formula works great for. But my problem is some items have the word "LUMP" as its quantity and not a number. I want to add to my array formula so if the item does have a LUMP quantity and the lump quantity is in the section location to put LUMP on the summary sheet. here is my formula
=SUM(IF((ProjectInfo!$AE$2:$AE$307 =$B59)*(ProjectInfo!$AD$2:$AD$307= AA$10),ProjectInfo!$AF$2:$AF$307,""))
projectInfo is the sheet where the list is. Column AE is the Item column on the projectinfo sheet column B on the summary sheet would be the item that i want to sum the quantities for Column AD is the section location column on the projectinfo sheet the AA$10 is the row and column of the section location i want to limit the sum of the quantities to the formula is in cell AA59 So it will sum all the quantities in the list on the projectinfo sheet if the item and section location match whats specified on the summary sheet.
getting LUMP to display if its a lump quantity. The Lump can only show up if the item on the projectinfo sheet has LUMP for that Item AND in that section location.
EDIT: Column AF on the ProjectInfo Sheet is the quantity column
Conditional Formula: If Text, Repeat As Number To Sum, Else Sum Numbers.
Dec 29, 2008I can get only so far, then stumped:3 columns (Hours, Rate, Amount). "Hours" is a 'List' with data from from another sheet. Data is named 'Worked'. 'Worked' is all 2 decimal numeric (represents total time worked), except first item called "Live In"
IF 'Hours' is "Live In", I can use: =IF(A1="Live In", SUM(B1*1))
How can I make it conditional so that if it's not "Live In", then it will SUM(A1*B1)?. SideNote: 'Worked' LIST has total time with minutes expressed as 1/4 of hour (i.e., 1.25 = 1 hour, 15 minutes).

Excel 2010 :: Formula That Will Work With Text And Numbers?
Dec 10, 2013I am working in Excel 2010 (Windows 8) and am having real problems trying to find a function/formula that will work with both numbers and text. I am trying to identify if the contents of Col A cells and Col C cells on each row are duplicated within a worksheet, and if they are, to add a 'J'.
(Column A is a list of numerical company codes and Column C is a list of adviser codes using the letter A-G. If a company ID code has more than one of the same adviser codes referenced to it, it is termed 'Joint', hence the 'J').
The formula I've used is: =IF(A2:C2, FREQUENCY>1, "J")
But it tells me 'numbers only'.
Formula To Rank Text Objects Based On Numbers, Interesting Read
Dec 30, 2008I'm attempting to create a formula that will find the name associated with a value, and return that name on the same column as that value in a later equation.
OK OK to illustrate it a little better:
There are three people: Bill, Ted, and Andy. Each one is ranked in Points, so my table looks like this:
A B
1 Bill 10
2 Ted 20
3 Andy 30
Later on, I want to rank the individuals based on their score, using a formula. Right now, I can rank the scores based using LARGE(B1:B3,1), then LARGE(B1:B3,2), and lastly LARGE(B1:B3,3). That ranks the numbers in descending columns. However, I want the information to automatically populate the name associated with that particular point total. So, I want the system to know that B1 is Bill's score, and rank it, in descending order, later on in the spreadsheet, with Bill's name.
Isolate Customer Name
Mar 30, 2009I have a list of data in which it will ALWAYS have the following set up:
S-CustomerName-####
"S-" and "-####" will always remain the same - however, the customer name may be 2 digits or 20 digits - or anything inbetween.
I'm looking for a formula that will allow me to isolate the Customer name
I've attached a sample list of my data.
Isolate Subtotals
Jul 12, 2006I need the data "pulled down" into the subtotal row, so to get this after I subtotal, I'm sorting by C, and I've got some VBA deleting all rows where COLs A & B are blank (this is the longest part & the part I want changed the most - this gets rid of the non-subtotaled rows), extended replacing "Total" with "" in COL C and then inserting a lookup in A & B to get the data back next to the subtotals.
This takes really long and I'm sure there's a faster way to do this that I haven't thought of. All in all, I'm looking for something that will ONLY keep the subtotal rows, and will fill down the data to them while removing any non-subtotal rows.

Compare Or Isolate Differences Between Spreadsheets
Mar 12, 2009I am a relatively light Excel user. I mainly use it when working with the .dbf files that make-up GIS shapefiles.
My problem at hand: How can I compare/isolate the rows from spreadsheet #1 to #2 to determine which rows are unique to spreadsheet #1?
What I'm doing: I have a spreadsheet of addresses which I joined to our parcels shapefile to select those parcels. I am trying to determine the success rate of my join operation by isolating the rows which weren't joined. This would be determined by highlighting which rows from spreadsheet #1 aren't in #2.

Apr 6, 2009I have a worksheet that tracks errors (10 different error types are tracked) that may occur on anywhere from 20 to 200 different jobs. What I need to be able to do is find all the jobs for any given day where a specific error has occurred two or more times for that day. Often a specific error will occured many times on the same job on the same day. What I need to end up with is only one row for each job that shows the Date/Time (m/d/yyy h:nn), JobNumber (number), ErrorNumber (text field) by either hiding or deleting those rows that do not meet the criteria.

Isolate XY Coordinates In Separate Cells
Sep 17, 2013I have a cell in F2 that looks like this...
513 BLUE RIDGE
Kansas City, MO
(39.104810141000485, -94.47983043799968)
I need to isolate the coordinates in separate cells. IE "39.10481014000485" in cell J2 & "-94.47983043999968" in cell K2. The problem is that some of the cells don't have 14 numbers behind the decimal, and my formula will sometimes grab either the comma ( "," ) or the end parenthesis ( ")" ). Is there a formula I can use to isolate the two coordinate plots?
The good thing is every cell is formatted exactly like this. I had been using a formula that looks like this.
=MID(F2,FIND("(",F2)+1,18)
I think it's close. I just cant figure out how to tell the formula to stop at the first comma, and to stop at the end parenthesis for the second set of coordinates.
Isolate Number From Mixed Cell
Nov 14, 2013The problem I have is I have a cell that says "170.51CR" and I want to extract the number (to perform an operation) without changing the cell.
The reason why is that data is from a website which updates so I can't adjust it.
Eg if I have "170.51CR" in cell B3 and I want to times the number by another cell When I times that value it return an error so I just want to operate the function on the 170.51
