How To Assign Numerical Value Based On Name

Apr 25, 2013

I have a list of names and prices as shown in two columns as a master list:

Apple and Lime 3,5
Assam 2,5
Chamomile Flowers 2,5
Chamomile Lemongrass3,5
Chilli mint 3,5
(the list is a lot longer than this!)

I have created a pick list using data validation to pick any of the names to insert elsewhere in the spread sheet. How can i get the next cell adjacent to this name to search and input the corresponding price?

How Do You Assign A Numerical Value To A Check Box Within A Spreadsheet

Sep 28, 2008

I am working on a vendor scorecard, and can not determine how to assign numerical values from 1 through 5. I am basically needing a way for the value to be added into a sum when the box is selected.

Assign Numerical Values To Text To Allow Calculations

Jan 31, 2010

I am working up a workbook template that will be used to process survey results. The way I ultimatley want it to work is that the user can paste data from another application into a worksheet in Excel, and then view analysed results on a second sheet (which are processed via formulae on a third, hidden sheet).

The problem I have is this: the data from the program that's capturing them are text values. For example, column B contains answers to a question where participants rate an experience, and the values are either "Excellent", "Good", "Fair", "Poor", "Awful". I want these to be converted to numerical values, on a scale where "Excellent" = 5 and "Awful" = 1, so that I can then average these.

So, the question is: Can I somehow tell Excel that "Excellent" = 5 and "Good" = 4 etc, and then use AVERAGE(B:B) on the text data and get a number back?

I did think of having an intermediate sheet that used VLOOKUP to create a copy of the first sheet (where the user pastes the text data) with the text replaced by numbers. But, because I don't know in advance how many rows will contain data (i.e. how many survey results there will be), I have to assume on the high side and copy down 50,000 rows. But, this takes ages to calculate.

Assign Numerical Values By Letter Across A Range

Dec 17, 2007

I have a formula that counts all instances of the letters a, b and c in a range and assigns them a value of 1 unless they are in the M column in which case a, b or c counts 4.

=SUM(COUNTIF(J2:AB2,{"a*","b","c"}),OR(LEFT(M2)={"a","b","c"})*4)

This worked well but now I need to modify the weightings across this range. My new goal is to count all instances of a,b and c in the range J2:AB2 but have M column a,b, c's = 2 and N:R column a,b,c's equalling 4. Letters other than a,b or c count as 0.

Example:

J2...K2...L2...M2...N2...O2...P2...Q2...R2...
A....B.....B.....C.....B.....D....B.....C.....E

the output of the above sequence should be

1+1+1+2+4+4+0+4+4+0 = 21

Assign Names With Specific Numerical Values

Feb 27, 2008

My company is soon to be rolling out a new payment system, and I'd like to be able to track commission for everything I sell. Briefly, we get paid via a percentage of the company's gross profit, and the way in which the company gets paid is tiered. (the cellphone business)

So, If a customer activates a plan thats below $39.99, we get paid X amount. If it's below $59.99 we get paid Y amount, and so on and so forth, there are multiple different tiers.

What I want to do is set up a list via data validation so that I can pick what plan they have (via the name of the plan) and have it return a numerical value (ie $39.99) and also have the ability to pick text messaging, etc as options so that the workbook will add the monthly rates (39.99 + 14.95) and then have it return value for the right priceplan tier.

If this is confusing, I apologize for not being more clear, but attached is an example. The top one is what I'm actually trying to code, but the bottom is completely filled in, so you can get a more clear sense of what I'm trying to do. Honestly I'm not even sure if it can be done.

Summary Of Numerical Values, Based On Several Conditions

Oct 16, 2008

I am trying to do is a summary of numerical values, based on several conditions.

column a column b column c
local loop live cross connect
loop A cancel 100
long haul live 10000
long haul pend canc 1000
loop Z live 100
x-conn live cross connect


In column a, i have several choices and i want to focus on those choices that fall into column B "live" or "pend canc" and then only have numerical data in column C

I've tried several different formulas like

=SUMPRODUCT((a30:a38="Loop A")*(a30:a38="Long Haul")+(b30:b38="Live"),cX30:cX38)

I know the result of this should be 111000 but it's not working...I usually get n/a. I know about using cntl-shift-enter to use the formula properly.

I can get one variable to sum up properly using =SUMIF(M9:M21,"Live",BW9:BW21)

but, that leaves out anything that is pend-canc

I have also tried =SUM(IF((a9:a21="long haul")*(b9:b21="live"),cX9:cX21)) which gives back a value that is accurate.....

Extracting Continuous List Based On Numerical Value?

May 3, 2013

I have attached the worksheet i am currently working on -snapshot of a 2.9 mb file :-).

I have a table i need the information compressed based on the values being greater than '0'. The original table Column A-E runs down 15000 rows but i am only interested in the values that are greater than '0'. I would like to see G3 to contain the first cell from A to contain a value greater than 0, G4 to contain the next sell with a value greater than 0 -- so on and so on.

This method will apply to columns G-K, their may be another formula that i am unfamiliar with that will get this to work.

I have already tried to play around with INDEX and MATCH, i think i am on the correct path but i am not looking at something the right way.

Getting Function That Will Return Numerical Value Based On Dropdown List

Aug 3, 2014

What I am trying to do is have a drop down list in one cell and have the next cell bring in the correct price for the item in the first cell. Sounds fairly easy? Well both lists are 200 items.

I have been trying to do this with just three items so far. On sheet two, I have created two lists. The first list in column A contains dogs, cats, mice. The second list in column B contains 1, 2, 3. On sheet one, I have created the drop down list for the animals in the A12 cell. I would like for B12 to auto populate the corresponding number to the animal without having to create an if formula for each animal and number.

Data Validation Formula For Set Of Numerical And Text Based Values

Apr 30, 2014

I am quite inexperienced with Excel and I am struggling to understand how should I set up a formula, within the data validation function to achieve the following:

I need to restrict a certain set of cells, for people to be able to input only the following values: "1", "0.5", "A", "H", "0.5A" (or 0.5a), "0.5H" (or 0.5h)

And I would need the data validation tool not to include blank cells.

Return Range Of Numerical Values In Single Column Based On Frequency Percentage

Oct 25, 2005

I have a single column of numerical values that may repeat many times within
the column.

I require a flexible Formula:
Use an Input Cell for the specified and changeable Percentage(s) %.
Column may be filtered – so only take into account Visible Filtered Cells.

The Formula will calculate and Return the numerical range of values that fall
between the specified percentage % (using the Input Cell) e.g.; 70%.

The Formula should Return two numeric values: a Start Value and an End Value
– NOT necessarily the minimum and maximum per se BUT the MIN and MAX of the
values that appear 70% of the time in the column; therefore, taking into
account Repeat / Duplicate values.

The calculated Results: the two numeric values will be returned to separate
cells on a new Sheet.

Excel 2010 :: Conditional Formatting - Highlight Values Based On 2 Columns Of Numerical Data

Apr 12, 2013

I'm having issues with Excel's 2010 conditional formatting. Seems easy to use, but I'm trying to highlight values based on 2 columns of numerical data. Example:

Column F:
6
6
14

Column L:
3
NA
17

I would like Column L to highlight values that are greater than Column F in green. If they are less than Column L then highlight them in red.

Seems I was able to do this with Excel 2003, but I don't understand the 2010 version.

Assign Yes / No To Cell Based On Meeting Some Criteria?

Jun 24, 2014

I need to write an excel function/macro/code to assign yes or no to a cell if the Description fits a certain category. I have attached a sample workbook and will explain what I mean.

In the sample workbook, there is data on a company. This included a unique ID, city, state, and description. What I want to do is fill out the yes/no column. So if a particular company has 2 of the 4 necessary "Descriptions", then column G will return yes, otherwise No. It must return yes for a particular company/ID if 2 of the "Descriptions" are "Sale", "Service", "Business", or "Par". I only want it to count at least two unique descriptions.

For example, in the sample workbook, Company A has all 4 of the necessary descriptions, thus everything in column G for this specific client should be yes. For Company B, only 1 of the 4 descriptions matches, so it returns No for all Company 2 columns. Company C has 2 of 4, so it returns yes for these columns. Note, it doesn't matter for Company C that "Business" was listed twice. It only needs to count the first unique time that description occurs.

Assign Range Name Based On Cell Values

Jan 24, 2009

In my workbook sheet 11 has some ranges that need to have names based on cell values in sheet2 (for purposes of data validation lists).

Range S28:S46 will assume the name of sheet2A11 & sheet2A3.
(example name period_1unit_1)

Range U28:U46 will assume the name of sheet2A11 & sheet2A4.

Range W28:W46 will assume the name of sheet2A11 & sheet2A5

Right now I am calling the code when something is entered into A11.

I have tried if statement and select case, but I ran into complications with both.

I have posted both codes with the questions I have concerning those codes.

Assign Data To A Separate Cell Based On Value Of Yet Another

Nov 7, 2007

I have a "memo of meeting" excel document used to capture notes during client meetings. In this document there's a cell for "purpose", "agenda", and "notes". The 'consultation type' cell is a drop-down populated by values set in Sheet2. The 'agenda' & 'notes" cells are then populated with information (also stored in Sheet2) based on what drop-down option was chosen in the 'purpose' cell. I'm currently making this happen with basic =IF() statements; however, the problem is that by doing it this way, the =IF() statement must reside in the actual cell which will end up showing the data.

This is undesirable as there may be additional notes, agenda items, etc. that I'll need to add during the meeting and as it's currently setup, I can only have either the pre-populated info OR the ad-hoc notes - not both. It seems a simple fix. Maybe put the =IF() statement in a cell off to the side but have it "assign" the value to 'agenda'/'notes' but that doesn't seem to work.

1) The correct group name should be assigned to the Domain name containing the keyword given as per criteria in Table 2

2) It is possible that the domain name will include more than one keywords given in Table 2. For example Cell number A7 contains both keywords NCG and EXC, in such cases the preferance should be given to EXC and we will assign the group name as EEC. And in Cell number A12 also contains both NCG and DMZ, again the preferance should be given to DMZ and we have to assign group name as ETIS.

That means we will give second preference to keyword NCG. If domain name contains none of the keywords except NCG as per given criteria then only we will assign grup name DOSS.

Calculate Number Of Days Between 2 Dates And Then Assign Number Based On Answer

How to create a spreadsheet with what I think will be a very simple formula?

If date in B2 - date in A2 is 1 or less days, put a 1 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 7 or less days but more than 1, put a 2 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 30 or less days but more than 7, put a 3 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 90 or less days but more than 30, put a 4 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 91 days or more, put a 5 in cell C2.

OR

Another, maybe simpler, way of saying it is:

If date in B2 - date in A2 is 1 or less days, put a 1 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 2-7 days, put a 2 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 8-30 days, put a 3 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 31-90 days, put a 4 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 91 days or more, put a 5 in cell C2.

Excel 2007 :: Using VBA To Assign Row Of Data - Code Based On Data In That Row

Feb 17, 2012

I have a workbook (excel07) that I use to import data onto our purpose built database. I have some macros to sort the data and send it to the correct columns however the one stage I still have to do manually is assign each row its own unique sorting Code (in a bespoke column "B2:B999").

These are objectives and the code should contain three seperate parts (part 1a and b do not need to be seperated);

1a. The characters "PO" should be the first in the code (for sorting purposes)

1b. The persons initials (first letter of the first name and last name) found in column J2:J999. [They are sorted by name so It would also be good to add a number after the initials seperated by a space incase of multiple objectives however I could defintly live with typing these in manually]

e.g. "Joe Blogs" second objective = JB02

2. The numerical part of the stategic objective they have selected found in column H2:H999. [incase you need this these range from 1.1-1.4, 2.1-2.5,3.1-3.6 and 4.1-4.5 all with a short text strings after which shouldnt be included in the code]

e.g. "1.1 We are Committed to being nice" = 1.1

3. The year they are applicable for which will all be "12/13" however I will need to change this next March.

Therefore the final code should appear as "POJB02 3.1 12/13"

There is a 16 Character limit on these codes but all of that information is needed for sorting, filtering and report generation, the spaces could be replaced by "_" if that makes things easier.
