Formula To Pull Information From Database File
Apr 26, 2012
I need building a formula to pull information from a database file. The purpose is to try to interpret the data so that I can analyze a time period along with it's content. I don't know how best to explain it. Basically I have a table and I want it to pull information based on 3 criteria: time, type, and total. I would like for the formula to identify a time frame, then identify a type, and then take the totals and add them together.
Time / Type / Total
11:31 /1 / 4
11:43 / 1 / 6
12:04 / 2 / 1
12:31 / 1 / 3
Time / Type / Total
11:30 - 12:00 / 1 / 10
12:00 - 12:30 / 1 / 3
The top is the database and the bottom is basically what I want to happen on the other table. Pretend the / and dividers for each column.

I need to be able to pull information from a "master database" into seperate worksheets. Here is my problem. When I use a vlookup and my identifer is say "office property" then the vlookup will only pull the first "office property" and not retrieve any of the remaining "office property" rows.

I would like to automatically update a 'yearly' database file with info from a file that is changed on a daily basis.
The daily file that i use has info like date, truck number, delivery stops, weight.
the database file has the similar headings.
at the end of each day this daily file is saved. I would like to have the info that is entered into the daily file automatically plugged into the yearly database file into the next available group of cells with respect to the salesperson.
This is kind of a generalization but i'm hoping to just get pointed in the right direction. If something like this involves vba then it will be beyond my ability and i'll have to do it manually, which is fine

I'm looking to pull names from a database to a particular sheet based on what info is displayed in the database. I have six names listed in the database with a league type and position. I have three different tabs at the bottom for where the info is supposed to pull depending on the player type.
For example, I want all six players to pull to the 'Mixed' tab and populate the appropriate area based on their position. Next I'd like the 3 players with 'AL' for their league type to populate only on the AL tab and likewise for the players with 'NL' for the NL tab. Not only do I need the players to pull to the appropriate tab but i also want them to populate in the right position within that tab.

check out the attached workbook.
I have 3 companies, A, B, and C, split by worksheet.
What i'm trying to do is consolidate all the data on 1 sheet, so it auto populates if new lines are added in the individual company worksheets.
So if a new line of data is added on the Company A worksheet, it will automatically be added in the Overall consolidated worksheet showing everything (so say I have 5 rows of data in each workshet, I want all 15 rows showing in the consolidated), BUT only if it has the following criteria:
That its got some data in Either the 'CF Currency or Other Currency or Amount' columns. If it fulfills any of that criteria, the new line will be added in the consolidated worksheet.
Copy Rows, Meeting Criteria, From Multiple Worksheets & Append To Summary Sheet - This thread has been made by a guy with the same problem as me and the solution for it works for him, but I cannot make it work for mine. I'd guess it would need small modifications but I don't know coding at all.

I am faced with a challenge of identifying all the probable duplicate issue of Id cards for a list of some 50000 students.
There is a list of student names in Column A with associated fields in subsequent columns.
I would like to use either first name or last name as keyword and pull all the data(all the columns) that either partially or fully match the keyword in second sheet.
I have attached a sample workbook for this : STUDENT MASTER.xlsx‎
I have tried vlookup but it pulls only one data set.

I just wanted to know if there was a way to add the information contained within an excel form into an access database using a macro? What I am looking to do is automatically have the data added when I press a button, or when I close a worksheet.

I am currently pulling information from a database into Excel. In column A is a list of dates that vary depending on how many days I decide to pull. On any given day there are options to which car will be driven and it is random and there are attributes associated with that drive such as below. If the car was not driven the data pull inputs "No Data" or a "0". On any given day up to three cars can be driven but it is still possible that only one will be driven. This is shown in the second table below. I'd like to be able to create an automated summary table such as the first table below. The summary table should be organized by date and show what cars were driven and their attributes. I know this seems simple but in reality I have six different cars and up to 10 attributes for each car and will be pulling months at a time. The only thought I have had is to do a for loop that checks every individual cell but I am not sure how to implement that.
Car
Miles
MPG

I am trying to put together a macro to pull data from one tab to another. The key here is that I want it to take the entire row.
Basically it will look something like this:
As someone goes down the rows of the checklist putting x's in the boxes that need one (there is a column set aside for that), that box will turn red.
That part is easy and done.
What I cant figure out how to do next is to automatically have a copy made of the row with the red cell and send them to another document.

I need a formula that will take info from sheet A column K only if sheet A
column E is equal to sheet B column E. I need it to paste into Sheet
B column K exactly as shown in sheet A column K.
I tried using a Vlookup formula but I got #N/A and I am not sure if that is
because there is text as opposed to numbers or if I am using the wrong
function entirely.

I want to setup an excel spreadsheet that will list employees and when exams were completed on them. The exams need to be completed once a year. I want the excel spreadsheet to send out an email to their corresponding supervisors when is within one month or so of an exam needing to be completed so their exam can be scheduled accordingly.
I have searched this forum and read through some of the other posts regarding exporting data from excel to outlook. This seems like what I need to do but I wanted to see if anyone has an advice on what way is better than the other?
Also, if excel is setup to push the data to outlook, does the excel file need to be open? In other words if Jimmy comes within one month of his exam but no one opens the excel file will it send out the email to outlook?
Is it a better option/ or possibility to have Outlook pull/check to see if the condition exists where an employee is within a month of his exam and then let the supervisor know?

I'm using a v-lookup to pull information from one worksheet to another. I know that each of the cells has a match on the second sheet, but the calcuation is resulting in a Value Not Available error. The only way I've figured out to get past the error is to go into each cell, hit F2 and then enter.

I'm trying to do is create a macro that will autopopulate information from a source sheet. What I have is a different route sheet for 25 or so technicians within my company on one worksheet.
I want to be able to have a source sheet that I can change daily and have it autopopulate the information needed into the appropriate cells/sheets from this one source sheet.
I am pretty sure there is a way to do this, but I'm not familiar enough with creating macros to do this myself, although if I had an example of one cell and a simple explanation of how to fit this to the information needed I think I could do this on my own.

I have created a spread sheet that uses the LOOKUP function to pull information from elsewhere in the sheet and automatically fill in a cell so that I can save time.
The spreadsheet has several columns with a single word or number but the column used for the lookup contains 2 words, 1 number and a “#” sign. I have used the “CONCATENATE” function to create a column that has all the words, the number and symbol and then my formula says to LOOKUP the value in the created column and return the number associated with that LOOKUP value. The problem is it will not give me the correct value. All cells with the formula return a value from the same row in the LOOKUP table no matter what the LOOKUP value..
I have used this exact same formula (copied and pasted it) in another place in the table with the LOOKUP information added by hand, not generated with the “CONCATENATE” function, and it works fine.

I am using an inputbox to pull over information from another sheet to be reviewed. The problem is that I can't get the cancel button to work. I am not having a problem with the ok button though.
Sub test()
Dim pull As String
pull = InputBox("How many would you like to retrieve.", "Retrieve", vbOKCancel)
If pull = vbOK Then
MsgBox "ok " & pull
Else
MsgBox "Cancel"
End If

OK,I have a spreadsheet that prints receiving labels based on received purchase orders that pulls information from an SQL server. The problem is that it is pulling almost 40,000 lines of data to sort and pull at most 30 lines. One of steps is that the purchase order receipt register has a barcode that is scanned into a text box on a userform. Can I use this information to filter the SQL data pull to only grab that PO number? I'm at a loss on where to begin with this. Below is my SQL statement from the Query builder with an example of a PO number input(PO-rma100613).

how to reference cells in 1 page from another and understand basic formula's, and would appreciate any input on how or if i can acheive what i'm trying to accomplish.
I have a worksheet with say 100 rows of information, it is a list of materials to go into a construction job. the columns to the right of the description calculate volume/quantity etc and produce a cost for the item. what i want to do is have a summary page that only lists the items that are being used, not all 100 items are in every job and i dont want to have to print the whole list with a bunch of empty values, which will just waste paper and ink. I'd like to enter a value in a cell or setup a check box or something that i could somehow use to then list that row or a part of that row of information on a seperate sheet, for a nice concise, easy to read list of job materials. i would like to do produce 1 sheet with the cost associated with the item, and one without cost.

I used to use Excel many many years ago for all my basic business databases and pivot table reports (so was at a basic competency level) and want to use it again but it has been quite a while and I can't remember how to do the following.....
I want to build a database of sales and purchase info in say 'sheet 1' - let's say 30 different headed columns and then many lines of different information under each column.
In 'sheet 2' I want to create an invoice template of my own design (I can do easily) for printing.
This template will need to extract say 10 bits of information from a particular row and then put them in a certain place on this sheet.
How can I type in one piece of information in a cell on sheet 2 (say the invoice or line number of the database) and that will then trigger all the other needed information from that particular line in sheet one onto this template?
I know it can be done but for life of me can not remember the formulas to use for these other cells in sheet 2 based on the info put in that one 'trigger' cell

Basically its a invoicing system. I tried with all the products in the same excel file but then I realized if i update the product list it wont in all excel files for each customer. So i thought one external access database (or excel file) that I could refer to from an excel file.
So what I want to do now is when I want to add a new product to an invoice, I click a button (add) and it opens a small window with the list of products which has been taken from say an access database or excel file. Then I select the product and click insert.
How would I go about doing this? Are there any simple example I could follow?

I am trying to create a summary sheet from the matrix to do further analysis. I want to pick out the welds done everyday with weld inches as you will see in the summary sheet. How can summary sheet be automatically updated when I enter the inspection date rather than copying and pasting? I can use vlookup to get the weld dia once I get the weld numbers on that date. I have attached the file.

I have created a 'price list' database in ACCESS. Then in EXCEL I created a pivot table which retrieves data from one of the database queries (the query was saved as a .dqy file).
I emailed the file containing the pivot table to a colleague who is on the same server. He saved the excel file on he desktop & renamed it. When I update the databse file on a shared public drive on the server, he is able to 'refresh' his desktop file successfully !!

Basically what I want to do is pull data from another file and have it copy it down about 10 lines onto another file. With a seperate sheet for each vehicle. For example:
File 1: Has 2 columns with data
Vehicle Number 1000 Vehicle Type Ford
1001 Chevy
1002 Dodge
File 2: Has a vehicle log sheet, in which i want it to take the data above and copy it down x amount of lines.
Vehicle sheet | Date issued | Hours used
Vehicle Number| (data from file one here) | Vehicle Type (data from other column in file one here)
And have it copy itself down from like A1 to whatever.
These also have to be on seperate sheets within the workspace, and each "tab" be named after the vehicle number,
