Handling Duplicate Zips - Combining Non-numeric Columns Into One Column And One Row
Jun 27, 2012
Is there a function in Excel that allows you to combine non-numeric columns as a list?
For example, 91401 is a zip shared by three cities: Van Nuys, Sherman Oaks and Valley Glen.
The data is in a workbook as three rows (each with 91401 as the first column, and cities listed individually:
91401 Van Nuys
91401 Sherman Oaks
91401 Valley Glen
I am eventually wanting to do a v-lookup with the zip, but the duplication is causing problems. I want the associated cities listed, but only want one row. The cities could be listed, separated by commas (preferably), like below:
91401 Van Nuys, Sherman Oaks, Valley Glen
The list of zips I have is several thousand long, so it's not practical for me to do it manually. Is there a "pivot table" of text that I could use?
I am waaaaay in over my head here. I've not done any scripting/macro/vb/whatnot work in Excel, but I'm staring down a potential all-night project manually merging data.
I currently have a worksheet filled with data from other worksheets. I want to combine data from different columns when they share an identical row header and don't know how. For example:
1b-- 1--c 1-d- 2-x- 2y-- 2--z
Would go to:
1bdc 2yxz
Another specific issue is that some row headers are bold and need to be considered a separate header from the non-bold alternative.
Using a Dynamic Named Range "Data", I would like a Formula to return the Row Number of the "LAST" instance of a duplicate numeric value - repeating twice consecutively in the same column.
I have to create 1000 dynamic ranges and do not want to do this manually. See the list below for the syntax I am using, I am only showing the first 10.
Name Range KPI_01=OFFSET(Date,0,1) KPI_02=OFFSET(Date,0,2) KPI_03=OFFSET(Date,0,3) KPI_04=OFFSET(Date,0,4) KPI_05=OFFSET(Date,0,5) KPI_06=OFFSET(Date,0,6) KPI_07=OFFSET(Date,0,7) KPI_08=OFFSET(Date,0,8) KPI_09=OFFSET(Date,0,9) KPI_10=OFFSET(Date,0,10)
I have tried the following code which works to an extent...
Range("=OFFSET(Date,0,1)").Name = "KPI_01"
..but the final result of the named range is an actual range, i.e. "A1:A13".
How can I keep the named range as a dynamic range?
I have 5 coloums in which the last three have numeric values. The first two coloums have name and country code. Now, The first two coloums have duplicate values but the rest of the corresponding columns have different numeriv values. What I want now is to add the numeric values of the coloumns of the duplicate data and want to display in the first row. For ex there are A = name , B= Country , C D and E contains different numeric values. A and B have dupilcate data but different C, D and E values. Now I want to add up the numeric values of the dupilcate data and get it displayed in a new coloum in the first row of the duplicate data set.
Horisontaly on the columns we have dates, day by day for a year +
For each day we chose from a drop down who is assigned to the action item. The problem is when there are 30-40 + projects and each have 20-30 lines of ation items it is hard to get the overview and avoid double entry. I would use conditional formating to do this, but firstly each project is separated by a line containing different formulas and I would not like the conditional formation to change these cells, and at the same time to put this up manually for each row would take a long time since there are 365 + rows.
how a VBA code could solve this little challenge? IT would also be beneficial to have it do the check upon cell change, that way we would not need to manually run the VBA to check.
I need to combine rows with that have the same column A value into one row. The duplication will be no more than 3 (ie 3 As, 2 Bs, 3 Cs, 1 D etc). I am looking for one of two options. 1) Ideally I'd like to be able to take 2 columns and turn them into up to 4 columns total. 2)Alternately, I can format the data to be in the correct columns to start, but will still need to merge the duplicate rows. The data can have any number of rows to start.
I've found something close, but it puts the new column data into ascending number order, which won't work for me because I need it to be in the specific order I input.(It also put all the data into one column, which I don't mind because I can do text to columns, but the order was the bugger.)
In my sheet I have it search for duplicate records and give those records the same id. Is there anyway to combine data into one record. For example, I have a person with a value in column Points1, on another row a value in column Points2, and another row a value in column Points3. I want take those values from the duplicate records and put them all in one record. I've attached a sample.
I have a sheet with over 1000 rows showing me every employee's benefit choices. It has multiple rows for each employee - one that indicates their health option, one that indicates their dental option and so on.
I'd like to combine them so I have one row that has columns for health, dental, etc...and then their options would be listed all in the same row. I've attached the original with the solution I'd like pasted below. I'm sure this isn't difficult but I'm having trouble figuring it out.
I am looking for a macro to look in Sheet 1 column A and compare the values to Sheet 2 column O. When it finds a duplicate I want it to delete the entire row in sheet 1. I dont want to have to manually sort anything if that's possible.
I have a long (about 180 000 rows) list of part numbers, descriptions, prices and quantities. There are many duplicate part numbers. I need to go through and find the duplicates, add all their quantities into one cell and delete the remaining duplicates. I have used conditional formatting to find the duplicates easier but cannot use the remove duplicates button as it will delete the whole row and I need the quantity information in each row.
Any formula or macro I can set up to search the part number column (F) for duplicates and add the figures in the quantity column (J) and THEN delete the duplicate part number rows?
Maybe I need to put the new combined information in another sheet?
I have monthly reports that come to us from a Data Warehouse. They vary in size(row length). The problem is that the information in one column actually belongs in the next column (i.e. C to D). As this information in Column C is just an "offset" from Column D there is no issue with overwriting any data in column D. Manually, I could copy the columm and Paste Special, Skip Blanks, to column D.
I've been trying to do this in code as some reports can be fairly lengthy: As there are some blank rows, I've inserted this FinalRow procedure, to provide the size of each report:
However, in trying to use the FinalRow value in a "Copy the contents from Column C....Cells(20,3 to FinalRow, 3) and then PasteSpecial to Column D (Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:=True) has not been productive. It keeps producing a number of Errors, in every way that I have tried to make this work.
If I have two columns which are lists of names, how do I make a new column which merges the names from each column into one list, and will refresh when new data is added to the two originals.
ive got columns of dates that i want to aggregate up into a single column of distinct dates. the dates columns are of varying length, some with gaps in the middle of the column, and some columns are blank. dates in teh columns may duplicate, but i only want distinct dates copied in the single column.
i cant do this by hand because there are dates in around 200 columns so i need a macro or way to do this quickly. ive attached a picture to explain the problem.
I'm working on a project that spans three sheets. A2:A151 of Sheet 1 and 2 is a list of names. The names may repeat and they probably won't fill all 150 rows. What I'd like to do with formulas is combine Sheet 1 and 2 into a single list in Column A of Sheet 3 without repeating names or showing blanks. I'm fine with multiple formulas and hiding columns, whatever needs to be done to make it work. Is this possible?
I'm trying to write some code to Hide columns if the first 3 characters of cells in a range equal the contents of another (formula equivalent would be something like this =IF((LEFT(A2,3))=A1,"HIDE COLUMN", "SHOW COLUMN"). I have gotten this far but cant get it to work;-
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim r As Range, cell As Range
On Error GoTo ErrHandler Set r = Me.Range("B7:CG7")
For Each cell In r If cell.Value = "" And Left(cell.Value, 3) = cell(Row, col).Value Then cell.EntireColumn.Hidden = True Else cell.EntireColumn.Hidden = False
End If
Next ErrHandler: Application.ScreenUpdating = True Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub
I get delivered flat files of data sometimes with 10 columns of data, sometimes with 20 or more. It could be alpha or numeric
I want to programatically subtotal all the columns that hold numeric data, ignoring dates. I know that the subtotal will always be grouped by the first column, but then the numeric columns could be in any of the remaining 19 or so columns.
Date formatting. I have two columns first column is for the date (3/6/2013) and the second column is for the time (12:37:16 AM). I would like to combine the content of both columns to be like (2/11/2013 12:35:00 AM) .
I am using concatenate but I don't have any luck. How to combine the content of my two columns.
[URL]...I was trying to use this thread's solution macro on my sheet that is only consolidating columns A, B, and C with a couple thousand lines and I've had it running for over an hour now. There hasn't been any errors but is there any particular reason that might be causing it to take longer than it should aside from having to go through a few thousand rows?
Basically, I only want 1 Version of data in Column B and any other rows that has a match in column B, i want to consolidate unique data from Columns A and C.
I have a spreadsheet in Excel 7 for a lifelong cashflow model. The main worksheet is called 'Projection' with ages in rows & income (from a variety of sources) and expenditure (of various kinds) in columns fed with data from the Input sheet.
On the 'Input' sheet I have a button called Format Graphs which controls the following macro:
This isn't absolutely necessary, but being able to do this easily would cut down on a lot of tedious jobs for me. Let's say I have a set of data like this (I tried to space it out as best I could to give the idea):
I have 2 large rows of data next to each other imported from a different programme. Some of the cells in these 2 rows consist of values, some consist of words. I only want to cut the cells with values in these rows and paste them in a new row, called TXid. I have written VB code that cuts all the data in the rows and pastes them onto the new row. Now I would like to cut only the values in the row. How do I select only the values in the cell?
Cells.Select Cells.EntireColumn.AutoFit Range("I1").Select ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "TXid" Range("G3").Select Do If ActiveCell = IsNumber = True Then Selection.Cut Selection.Offset(0, 2) End If ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select Loop Until ActiveCell = "" Range("H3").Select Do If ActiveCell = Isnumber = True Then Selection.Cut Selection.Offset(0, 1) Loop Until ActiveCell = ""
The ActiveCell = Isnumber = true is not working the way I want it to.
I am working on a spreadsheet to track membership data. In Col A, I have the year that the member started their membership. In Col B, I have the dd/mm/yy that their membership renews.
For instance: ABC Company began membership in 2002 (Col A). The next billing cycle (membership renewal) is scheduled for 7/1/2014 (Col B).
Is there a formula to take the month and day from Col B and the year from Col A and combine them? For the example above, I want the result to read: 7/1/2002
I currently have a spreadsheet that has 4 columns. I want to review the information in column A and if it matches, I want to combine the cells in column D into one cell for the matches in column A. Here is an example of the information I have:
123456 ABC Company 901 0001
123456 ABC Company 901 0099
[Code] ....
So basically I want to review column A and any # in that column matches, I want to combine the cells from column D into one cell. So I would want the first sequence to catch that A1, A2, and A3 match... so then it would combine D1, D2, and D3 into one cell that would read "0001/0099/HRA1". Is this possible?
