How To Find Duplication Between Two Worksheets Using Macro
Apr 24, 2014
I have two sheets, which has data in columns A-J (10) on both sheets and but (sheet2) will have more data records than (Sheet1). I would like to be able to run a vba macro, which can find duplicate rows between the two sheets, by matching up only 8 columns, excluding column's E and G between the two sheets and showing the output duplicates in both sheets in green highlight.
I have attached my sample data for further reference. [URL] .....
The sample file, shows data in sheet1 and sheet2, and the desired output should be sheet1 and sheet2, highlighting (2,3,4,5,6,7,9,19,11,13) rows green in both sheets.
I need macro that can search through worksheets and identify text urls (pair Networks - World Class Web Hosting.) within a cell and activate just those URLs that are not activated. I have many workbooks containing many worksheets. The URL references are always located somewhere down in column A after word 'Source:' but can be in the middle of string of text in that row after 'Source:'
I am new to VBA & not sure of the full understanding of code copied from a workbook which worked on the same principle but with Monthly (12) tabs. I thought if modified to show weeks, the macro would be able to locate the current week tab & day/date within - but upon opening, the cell stops at WK19 & column O - rather than WK43, Column N (which changes daily).
I have an excel sheet with about 500 words in 500 cells that I have generated automatically. Separately I have a 'blacklist' of words I have compiled manually that I don't want to appear in the excel list.
How do I ensure that any 'blacklisted' word is deleted from the excel files. Is there any other way than doing it manually?
I've a list (Taken from this website; [URL] of 4900 rows with each row have 4 numbers if I want to add or insert one number( from 1 to 50 ) to each row with no duplicate to make it 5 numbers in each row? Is there a formula or Vb code to do this?
To my calculation Numbers (1:50) have to be use 98 times;(50*98=4900) since each numbers in the list used 392 times(392/ 49 = 8)since there is no duplication when adding numbers (1:50) to rows each numbers must pair with evry other number in that list 8 times.at the moment with out adding the 5th number each number pairs with any other number exactly 24 times but adding process finish it should be 32 (24+8).
I made a macro that will name the current sheet whatever text is found in cell B2 on that sheet. This works great unless that sheet name already exists.
If the sheet name already exists, is there a way to rename it as Cell B2 plus the number 2 after the title so it doesn't cause an error?
Example:
"Smith, Bob" is a sheet name, so the macro would make the new sheet name "Smith, Bob 2"
Alternatively, how could I give a pop-up telling about the error and deleting the current sheet instead of renaming it with a "2"?
Eample:
"Sorry, 'Smith, Bob' already exists. Deleting new sheet." as a popup and have it delete the current sheet.
I have a spreadsheet that grows rapidly each day of addresses I service. Duplicates are not welcome. When the spreadsheet was smaller, I would type in an address and if it was a duplicate, Excel would auto fill the cell with the duplicate data. Now that the rows are over 2000, I wanted to see if this primitive method for weeding out duplicates was still working, however when I type the first address I have in cell A1, it does not auto fill in A2001, even though it is a duplicate.
Is there any way to have on-the-spot detection of duplicates sans macro?
I'm using excel 2007 and windows vista. I have 2 cells, A1 contains (01,) and B1 contains (01, 08). I want the result in cell C1 to be (01, 08) by calling function trim_sort($A1&$B1). The code gives me an error "invalid qualifier" for s.length & more.
I have a worksheet which J3:NJ3 lists the dates for the calendar year. (Example - J3 = 1/1 , K3 = 1/2 , etc. )
A3:C3 are my headers for project information (project name, manager,etc)
In D3 I will be entering employee names. in E3 I will be entering Project start dates, and in H3 will be end dates. These dates are selected via validation lists of the dates listed in J3:NJ3, and it is set to auto fill the adjacent date range with an "X" after the start and end dates have been selected.
Now I also have another worksheet which is a pivot table that will auto update upon any workbook change, and will show each employee and all of the dates in which they are scheduled to work. I am using conditional formatting on this sheet to highlight any dates that the selected employee is double booked on two or more projects.
I want to keep this second worksheet as is, but to avoid having to flip flop back and forth between tabs to find out of someone is double booked, I would like to add a column (I) which will either say "Available" or "Double Booked" . Is there a formula that I can use for this? I thought about Vlookup, but I don't believe I know of a way to write a Vlookup formula that can check a dynamic range of entered dates. I thought perhaps a nested Vlookup/Hlookup, but not quite sure if that will work either.
each month i have to clens a sheet that shows customer name and then the figures per month.
this is pulled from a system that allows for a new entry each time a variation on customer name is used, I.E
Joe Blogs LTD Joe Blogs Limited Joe Blogs ltd.
would all come through as new entries. then i have to manually consolidate the figures from each month. the spreadsheet has over 5000 rows, and maybe only 15% are duplicated. what i want is to be able to select the column (that will be sorted a-z) and highlight cells that have a match for the first 4 or 5 charicters.
once i have identified duplicates i then have to merge the data into one row. is there an easy way to do this? it is monthly, comparing 2008 and 2009, so by december there will be 24 columns + the company name that need to be clensed.
How do I compare 2 columns and then flag where there is duplication? I want to compare Column B against column C and then flag everywhere there is a match. In this case, Column B may have several thousands of entries (inclusive off all entries found in Column C) and I want to have Excel look through the thousands of entries in Column B and then just place an "x" where there was a match to the values found In Column C. For example:
A B C D E F (B+C-D-E) Date Opening Stock Purchase Sales Consumption Closing Stock 17/7/2012 10000 5000 1000 2000 12000 17/7/2012 12000 2000 2000 1000 11000 18/7/2012 11000 0 1000 5000 5000 18/7/2012 5000 10000 3000 0 12000
Note : I want the above result as shown below datewise but no duplication of date but summing up of column C,D and E which is in above.Pls note that this is accounting question and also plz note that Opening stock(column B) from next date onwards must be equal to previous date closing stock(Column F).
Results :
A B C D E F (B+C-D-E) Date Opening Stock Purchase Sales Consumption Closing Stock 17/7/2012 10000 7000 3000 3000 11000 18/7/2012 11000 10000 4000 5000 12000 (B=F)
if I could get the formula in excel ,since this is the sample data as I do have a numerous & huge data like shown above datewise where I need to add C ,D and E but Opening stock(column B) from next date onwards must be equal to previous date closing stock(Column F).
I have a probably pretty basic question. I have a lot of data indexed by a catalog number (call it N). Data for each catalog item with number N can be found on any number of different worksheets in my workbook. What I want to do is have a function that will take two arguments -- a catalog number = N and an index = m -- that will return the sheetname for the mth occurrence of data corresponding to N. So if N occurs on sheet 1 = "monkey" and sheet 2 = "gorilla", function(N,1) will return "monkey" and function(N,2) will return gorilla.
I was approaching this using a recorded Find macro and a for loop running through the sheets like this: ===
Count = 0 For Each sht In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets With sht Set cell = cell.Find(What:=N, LookIn:=xlValues, LookAt:=xlPart, _ MatchCase:=False, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns) If Not cell Is Nothing Then Count = Count + 1 If Count = m Then name = cell.Worksheet.name End If End If End With Next sht
I'm trying to use a simple for to search the entire workbook for 1 value. Below you will have the code I currenlty have but I keep getting an error stating that "Oject variable or With block variable not set". The code in yellow is what "debug" highlights as the issue.
Option Explicit Dim oWs As Worksheet Dim rSearch As Range Dim rCl As Range Dim sFind As String Dim sFirstAddress As String
Private Sub cmdFinish_Click() Unload Me End Sub
Private Sub cmdSearch_Acive_Click() If Me.tbxFind.Value = "" Then MsgBox "No search item entered" Me.tbxFind.SetFocus Exit Sub Else: sFind = Me.tbxFind.Value.....................
How do I make this code search all worksheets...more appropriately, a specified range within a column on all sheets (L2-L100)? I have found multiple different posts to do similar, but nothing I can piece into what I want. (VBA newbie)
I am trying to create a search/find form that will allow a user to find either a file number or client name across multiple sheets (from an array). However I can only get it to search the first sheet only....
Attached a Sheet. On the summary page, I need "C7" to look at C7 in all the other sheets, find the sheet that doesn't have a value of "0" in C7, and display that value.
I have a workbook with 32 worksheets. Data on 31 of these sheets all filter through to the one "Summary" sheet. The data on all the other worksheets is input manually and the lay-out is identical on each sheet. What I want to do is a Vlookup on the summary sheet for every sheet in the workbook, but without typing VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet1A:C,3,0)+VLOOKUP(A1,Sheet2A:C,3,0) etc etc (my sheets aren't actually called Sheet 1/2/3 etc, they have specific names).
I have two worksheets (sheet1(1687 rows), sheet2(767 rows)). Both have part numbers in Column A
I want to be able to search Column A for duplicates found in the other worksheet. When it finds those duplicates, iw oudl like for the Part Number(columnA) and the cost(column D) to be pasted onto a third worksheet (sheet 3)
I have found lots of similar things out there, but nothing that does what I want.
I will do this Each Monday morning. I am ok with VB but what takes me 3 weeks sometimes takes you guys 10 min.
I have a problem with VLOOKUP. The Value im trying to look up a value which is one of 5 sheets Called Con1 to Con 5. These Sheet names are in an Array called "ArrCons" the look up value range is also a variable and looping through column "C". The table Array is on Sheet "Con" Range "A:E", return column is 2 and the logical value is "false". ActiveCell.Offset(i-1,2)=Application.VLOOKUP _(ArrCons(y)!C & i -1, Sheets("Con").Range("A:D"),2,False)
There are four data worksheet. Each share a common column data set; ITEM NUMBER. Is there a way to create a macro so that when you enter an ITEM NUMBER into a textbox on the "Output sheet" page, it will automatically gather all rows from all worksheets that is associated with that ITEM NUMBER?
Also, on worksheet 3, the ITEM NUMBERS have an extension that defines the type. Can a wildcard be setup so that it will only match the first six characters of the cell?
