How To Return All Cells (in The Form Of An Array) Containing A Certain Word

Jun 4, 2009

I am drawing a total blank here, lets say I have a column of cells:

A1 ("Word")
A2 ("No")
A3 ("No")
A4 ("Word")
A5 ("Word")

(they all have words in them). How can I return all cells (an array?) that contain a specific word?

=COUNTIF(A1:A5,"Word")

returns: 3

That function is almost perfect, except that returns a number - I need this to return an array of all of those cells that contain the word. Because I have another function to run after that takes in cells and THEN counts how many are a certain color (this one already works) - so it obviously cannot take in a number, it needs a list of cells

So it should return:

A1,A4,A5

But I'm not sure in what format

Searching Text Cells To Return Word Count Within Particular Row

Feb 9, 2012

I am trying to search text cells to return a word count within a particular row of cells and I am currently using the following formula:

=COUNTIF($D4669:$EI4669,$O$3), where cell o3 contains the word to search and $D4669:$EI4669 the data.

However, this formula misses data that contains characters such as "," etc.

Excel Function To Return Nearest Non Blank Cell Value From Rectangular Array Of Cells

Jan 10, 2014

Assume you have a rectangular range. Say A1:M18. There are values in some random cells (any number of cells) within the range. The rest of cells are blank. In cell M19 (ie cell below the bottom right corner of the range), I need a excel function that returns the nearest (ie physical location) non blank cell value. I have searched the internet for weeks. The closest formula is the following (see below) but it is flawed as it returns zero if there are values in rows below the row of the nearest cell with non blank...and also zero if there is value in a column greater than the column of the nearest cell with non blank.

Closest formula so far:
INDEX(A1:M18,LARGE(IF(ISBLANK(A1:M18),"",ROW(A1:M18)),1)-ROW(A1:M18)+1,LARGE(IF(ISBLANK(A1:M18),"",COLUMN(A1:M18)),1)-COLUMN(A1:M18)+1).

And the function should be relative not absolute as the range can be extended..but the location of the formula remain same relative to the array size. (ie. always at below the right bottom cell).

NOTE: Ignore the special case where two non blank cells are the nearest. That will not happen.

Return Array Elements From 2D Array

Feb 11, 2008

I'm trying to use an array to carry out string function on a range of excel cells.

Here is the code I am using

Dim arrXl As Variant

arrXl = ws.Range("F1:F" & ws.Range("D1").End(xlDown).Row)

For i = LBound(arrXl) To UBound(arrXl)
MsgBox (LBound(arrXl))
'If 1st char is different from 3rd char then remove all of string after 1st char

If Left(arrXl(i), 1) <> Mid(arrXl(i), 3, 1) Then
arrXl(i) = Left(arrXl(i), 1)
End If
'If 1st char is different from 7th char then delete string after 5th char
If Left(arrXl(i), 1) <> Mid(arrXl(i), 7, 1) Then
arrXl(i) = Left(arrXl(i), 5)
End If

The lbound function returns the value of 1 as the lower bound, I do not have "Option base 1" set so I was expecting the lbound value to be 0. The first 2 cells in the F column are blank so this may have something to do with it, I am unsure if cells in excel can be null if they can be null one cell may be null and the other may be a zero length string but I am unsure about this.

The ubound function returns a value of 487.

The code breaks when I try to access an element in the array so it breaks on the line:

If Left(arrXl(i), 1) <> Mid(arrXl(i), 3, 1) Then

and returns the "Subscript out of range" error message.

Looking To Find 1 Of 2 Words In A Cell In Column B And Return Word Found In The Same

May 27, 2014

Looking to find 1 of 2 words in a cell in column B and return the word found in the same row in column E. This seemed easy but I am not having any luck.

the cells in column B have several words in them but I am looking for 2 specific words "PLAT" and "ORIG". If the word is not in the cell, it should show a blank cell in column E in the same row, otherwise one of the 2 words should be in that row in column E. A VBA loop would be ideal but a formula that can do it might work as well.

VBA - Search For Multiple Text Strings In Data Field And If Matched Return One Word

May 7, 2014

I have hundreds of records of customer info and I am trying to categorize the job titles so that I can conduct some analysis with a pivot table. My problem is that there is about 20 different ways and variations of "manager" so Instead of autofiltering for "mrg." "Manager" "marketing manager" ect. and then replacing the text manually and using the enter and fill process (to create some standardization to compare "manager" to "director" to "c-level" to "consultant", etc.) and repeating this process over and over again...

I would like to create a VBA that would search the column "job title" for multiple text strings at once and if the text string was true in the cell then the cell would be replaced by a new text string "Manager". I was thinking a series of if functions within one vba but I am not sure if this is possible.

Return Nth Match In Array

Dec 20, 2013

The short version:

(69.1*SQRT(((Shops!$X$2:$X$341-C3)^2)+0.06*((Shops!$Y$2:$Y$341-D3)^2))<=25))) evaluates out to series of 340 True and Falses. I need to be able to pull the nth True, and then somehow index that against AH2:341.

I'm working with a record of 53,000 entries with latitudes and longitudes and I need to cross compare them with 341 locations in the United States.

I've already done some of the heavy lifting, which supported narrow an initial list of 85,000 records to at least recognize which records where within any of the 341 points. (Less arrays makes my computer happy.)

This formula gives me the count of locations each entry is within one of the 341:

=SUM(IF(69.1*SQRT(((Shops!$X$2:$X$341-C3)^2)+0.06*((Shops!$Y$2:$Y$341-D3)^2))<=25,1,0)) {CSE} & copied down 53k times

The actual return range is AH2:AH341 for the location number.

Now, I need to be able to list each of the 341 they are close to. The max count is 17, so I'll only need to list out 17 columns.

Maybe something like =LOOKUP(1,1/(69.1*SQRT(((Shops!$X$2:$X$341-C3)^2)+0.06*((Shops!$Y$2:$Y$341-D3)^2))<=25))),$AH$2:$AH$341)
but this only returns the first match. How do I return the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc?

Because of the sensitive nature of my data, we can use a much simpler array which I'll adapt; I'm mostly trying to understand the logic or formula that should be used.
