Formula To Return The Value In A Column Based On Cell Entry In Row
Jun 3, 2006
Trying to write a formula that looks for the first number in the same row, then returns the value in that column in a different row. In the example included, cell A-7 should contain the formula. Within row 7, determine the column where the first number is listed (column D in this case), then return the value listed in row 3 of that column ('C' in this case).
I've tried Lookup, Index, and Match functions, but can't seem to get the right combination.
Any way to construct a formula in excel that will look at a reference in one column and find the latest date from the data in an adjacent column for that specific reference?
Below is an exctract from a much larger sheet of the columns in question.
The result in the last column should be 21/05/2014 for anything with D.O.001 in the second column and 15/05/2014 for anything with D.O.002.
Date Decision agreed Disposal Order Latest Decision date for D.O.
Is there a formula that will allow me to look for the existence of any number value in a row of one worksheet and then return a specific number value in a cell on another worksheet? For example, if the formula finds any number value it will always return the number 15 to a cell on another worksheet.
i'm sure this can be done but i cant get an angle on the method. i want to use VBA to put a formula into cell G3 based on the users entry in cell D3 so, for example the user enters M in cell D3 and the VBA code puts the formula "if D3="M",A3,0"into cell G3
i know i could use a formula in the cell but i want it to work with multiple entries so i figure VBA is the way to go.
I have a spreadsheet of several thousand named items (in column B) with values associated with them in column A). The "name" field is a string of several alternative names for the item.
I have a list of ~50 items that I am trying to find the values for. Each uses one of the alternate names.
What I want is a function that will return the associated value in column A when one of my shortlist names is found.
I've got a spreadsheet with various amounts in cells A3:L5. I want to find the last non-blank entry in each row but only where the entry is in a column headed "Guaranteed PRB" (found in row 1). Then I want it to return the column header title found in row 2, which is a date.
I've attached a sample of the spreadsheet with the expected answer in column M.
The startmonthsp name refers to the months across the top of my pivot table. This formula works but I now need one small change. If the value in the columns are zero or less then I do not want the formula to return that column header (bypass it until it gets a positive value above zero).
Attached is a workbook that shows my formula in action.
It's a spreadsheet of about 300 rows, each row corresponding to a certain department. each row is filled with various data, both text and numerical, including various different scores and averages. the columns include daily scores and weekly averages. I want to be able to create a new column that will calculate the time (in days or weeks) since the last score/average was entered.
1. a formula that will return the address of the last numerical entry in a given row. (I've got a MATCH formula that will do this, although it doesn't let me specify different cells or ranges, only the entire row)
2. whichever cell is returned will give the date instead of the value. (for example, if the last value entered is in $F$63, and Column F is headed 23/11/09, then the formula will give the date)
3. then finally, calculate the time between that date and the present time
I've tried various different things, both in normal Excel and the VBA editor, and I'm beginning to think maybe this isn't even possible.
I have been stuck for about a week on trying to create a Case Select macro. I am a novice in using VBA, so I am not sure what I am doing right OR wrong. What I need the macro to do is go through all of the text in a column and if the text is one of the 50 states, I need it to return one specific value, and if it is anything other than one of the 50 states, it needs to return a different value in a column 5 over from the column with the states in it. I have changed the code MANY times and so far I haven't been able to get anything to work. Here's the gist of what I have been trying:
Sub usstates() Dim R As Range, s As String Set R = Sheets(1).Range("J1:J50000") For i = 5 To R.Rows.Count X = UCase(R.Cells(10, 1)) If X = "AL" Or X = "AZ" Or X = "AK" Or X = "AR" Or X = "CA" Then R.Cells(i, 2) = "SC" End If Next i End Sub.................
I have a spreadsheet that give me the percentage difference of two cell say a1 and a2 (=a2/a1)[format as % two decimal places]. The result is on say b5 as a %[format as % two decimal places]. Now on B6 I want to do this:
if B5 is >3.01% then b6 =" Market Test Required" if B5 is +3% then b6 =110 if B5 is +2% then b6 =106 if B5 is +1% then b6 =103 if B5 is 0% then b6 =100 if B5 is -1% then b6 =96 if B5 is -2% then b6 =93 if B5 is -3% then b6 =90 if B5 is >-3.01% then b6 ="Market Test Required"
So on and so on.... I would really appreciate your help on this issue.
I have used excel for some time now but not with complex formulas or any vb.
I have a spreadsheet where there are two columns for the user to enter data in, but they can only select one column. I want to lock the second cell if data is entered in the first. I can't find a way from validation to do this. Is there another way via VBA (stupid question, I know... VBA does everything but scratch your butt)
I am trying to write a procedure to highlight entire rows in VBA based on a entry in column A.
I have the below which works for say 1000 rows but breaksdown when I have 58,000 rows which is the usual amount of data I will have.
Below is the code I have so far. It appears when I debug it breaks on the red line with type mismatch.
Option Explicit Sub RemoveBH() Application.ScreenUpdating = False Dim intcount As Long For intcount = Cells(1, 1).CurrentRegion.Rows.Count To 1 Step -1
My workbook contains several worksheets each recording the results of equipment tests - one sheet for each piece of equipment. Rather than open each worksheet to check the date of the last test, other 'overview' worksheets pick up and display the last test date from each equipment record using the formula =MAX('sheetref'!A15:A500). Is there a better formula to do this?
Some items of equipment are tested at more than one frequency, ie Monthly, Yearly, etc. Therefore, the entry on row 15 of an equipment record may be column A 28/10/08 column D 'M' and row 16 column A 29/10/08 column D 'Y'. The above formula will only display the last test date, irrespective of frequency. There is a seperate overview sheet for each test frequency therefore, I need to modify the formula so that the date it copies from the equipment record worksheet to the overview worksheet is the date of the last test for the specified frequency.
making a macro that will scan for duplicates, length & empty cells.
I have the sample file below that does conditional formatting but it doesnt help as much because I want to show the reason for the highlight's on a comment instead.

file that might help out: [url]
checks would be: column A - duplicates and/or length should not be over 100 characters column B - duplicates column F - should only contain 2 comma's(or 3 keywords) all columns - check if no entries are found(empty cells)
I'm trying to find a formula that will find an original entry using 4 criteria original entry is cases ordered.
columns A,B,C,D will have to match then give me a result in column E to find original entry if there is one otherwise I will have to enter new row and original entry for cases ordered.
Eg.
A = section B = description C = size D = region E = cases ordered Row 2 = fruit, apples, medium, north, 25 Row 45 = fruit, apples, medium, north,
i want to insert value from the name of file from this formula "=MID(CELL(""filename""), FIND(""["",CELL(""filename""))+1,10)" to range b2 until last empty range that i found form this formula =ROW(OFFSET(A1, COUNTA(A:A)-1,0))
Sub lumu() Dim x As Variant x = "=ROW(OFFSET(A1,COUNTA(A:A)-1,0))" Columns("B:B").Select Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight, CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove Range("B1").Select ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "kode_wilayah" Range("B2").Select ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _ "=MID(CELL(""filename""),FIND(""["",CELL(""filename""))+1,10)" Range("B2").Select Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("B2", Range("B" & x)), Type:=xlFillDefault 'this an error Range("B2:B123").Select On Error Resume Next ActiveSheet.Name = "t" End Sub
dont know if this can be done using a formula rather than VBA...but is there a formula that would change the countif range based on another cell entry. so the formula below has a column range of 2...so the other cell entry would be '2'.
=COUNTIF(B1:C1,"=Y"). If i then changed the cell entry to '4' the formula would change to. =COUNTIF(B1:E1,"=Y")
I will try putting the Code Tags in correct this time, I think I figured out what I have been doing wrong.
This code will allow one cell to make a sound when a condition is met. I am trying to have each cell stand on its own. Example cell A1 would sound a Ding if the number >100 and cell A2 would sound a Tada if the word Cat would be returned ....
I have the following sample data set and I'm trying to return the appropriate column header based on criteria (i.e. DDD) and a number value which will be somewhere within the range of the table. In example below, the value returned should be Header 2 because the value is greater than those in Header 1 column (range H9 to L26).
For the below formula is it possible to replace the B's (column location) with a cell Say Z146 which contains the letter B (or a number if thats easier and someone can tell me the numbers for each column).
When the formula is dragged into the next cell (down) it takes its column reference from Z147 and then my life becomes so much easier.
I would like to write the code or create a macro that will execute when the value of a range of cells is greater than null. The macro or code that I would like to execute will UNHIDE a group of consecutive rows.
I have a workbook with 3 worksheets which contains a single spreadsheet where the user enters data and 2 worksheets containing all the named ranges and formulas(divided up by product model) used on the data entry worksheet. What I've been trying to accomplish is to choose one worksheet based on which product model I select on the data sheet.
I need to force our salespeople to enter information in a cell based on a condition. This is the condition: If I5=3, then I need to move the user to cell I3 with a message that says "Enter miles to site" -- I don't want them to be able to move from the cell until they enter the information. If I5 does not equal 3, then I don't need anything to occur. I need to apply this code to four separate worksheets in the same workbook. Also, they will be entering a number in cell I3, so is okay to leave I3 formatted for Number or General Number?
