How To Search Number Of Columns
Mar 19, 2014
I need to search multiple columns to find a match before I want the result selected which itself will be in a different column.
It seems to me to be an extension of the VLookup function. Attached is an example of the sort of spread sheet I am trying to pull data from. I am trying to get the result of Area 5G, for site ZZ, KPI 2.1, Date Apr-13. As well as the result for Area 5G, Site (empty), KPI 2.1, Date May-13. I hope this is not to convoluted

I would like to search across a number of rows in a worksheet and then match against two columns.
e.g.
Column B Column C
test 10
I would like the function to match against all rows that match against "test" in Column B and then work out which cell in Column C has the highest value

I have a workbook that has worksheeets for every day of the month. The data in the worksheet consists of columns (employee #, name, clock in/out times, and break penalty).
What I am trying to do is create another worksheet that searches all the other worksheets for a "yes" in the "break penalty" column and then create a list of all the employees that received a break penalty for the entire month. I would like this to be able to auto populate throughout the month as data is entered and not have to use a filter every time I want to compile this list.

I have a list of names in column C and a list of Codes in column A. I have a unique list of the names from C in column M and a unique list of codes as headers in N1 through S1. A name will be used several times in column C But will only match a code in column A one time. My codes are: In, Out, Shop, ConfRoom, Libr, Musm, and Thrtr. How can I search the name and code and get the time from column E and put it in the appropriate cell. I can concatenate everything and do a VLookup but that would be several thousand rows.

The first tab of the excel sheet called 'Data' displays information on the years that 2 countries traded with one another. For example, from the years 2005-2010, Belgium traded with multiple countries (Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile). However, there could have been one year or multiple years where it did not trade with a particular country (e.g. in 2006, it may have skipped trade with Chile).
What I'd like to do is basically create a function that searches through the data and returns a 1 if Belgium traded with a particular country each year from 2005-2010 and a 0 if it did not. So, for instance, because Belgium traded with Australia, Brazil, and Canada in all 6 years, the function would return a 1. But, because it did not trade with Chile in all 6 years, it will get a 0.
The second tab called 'Results' displays what I'd like it to show. I've tried using if statements (but they don't work with text), vlookups, match, index .

I need a formula that matches a number on Sheet1 with a number on Sheet2. Sheet1 contains 7 columns of numbers. Each column corresponds with the same column on Sheet2 if the number on Sheet1 column 1 can be found in Sheet2 column 1 then the result is True. If the number is not found in Sheet2 column 1 then the result is False. This same criteria would apply to columns 2 through 7 as well.
The formula would start by selecting a number in Sheet1 that corresponds with the formula column and then scan the entirety of the matching column on Sheet2 for that number. If it is found in that column the result is TRUE.
Sheet1 H3 corresponds to Sheet1 A3 scans all of Sheet2 column B for the value in A3 if it's in Sheet2 column B the result in H3 is True if it's not then the result in H3 is False.
EXAMPLES:
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (A3) = 2223333333
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (B72) = 2223333333
Result H3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (B3) = 222333333314
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (C67) = 222333333314
Result I3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (C3) = 222333333332
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (D61) = 222333333332
Result J3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (D3) = 222333333321
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (E62) = 222333333321
Result K3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (E3) = 222333333331
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (F65) = 222333333331
Result L3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (F3) = 222333333351
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (G70) = 222333333351
Result M3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (G3) = 222333333352
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (H69) = 222333333352
Result N3 = TRUE
I've attached a workbook with examples : match_numbers.xlsx‎

I want to search Column A in sheet1 vs column B in sheet 2. If there is a match, i want copy Column B in sheet 1 and PASTE it to Column E in sheet2. I have a macro (helped by those on here ) that will find the duplicates and copy cells from the cooresponding row only to another sheet.
The tricky thing is, the macro I have makes a complete new sheet. I want to copy the data to column E on sheet2 ONLY if there is a match for that cell. If ther eis nto a match i dont want it to put anything.

I have 2 columns of data (Column A and Column B).
I would like to be able to search the two columns and see if any of the data repeats in either column. Here's an example:
15844721565538
15907771565575
15936501574897
15946991576501
15970061576502
16095501578841
16124741578842
16124781578843
16124821578844
16166161578954
1616781 1616781
The list is much longer than this. I need a formula or whatever that would scan both lists and say, nothing matches, or 1616781 matches or highlight the matches or whatever, just so long as I don't have to go down the entire list multiple times.
I would have downloaded Htmlmaker and provided a glimpse that way, but the web site is blocked here at work.

=INDEX('Cost Table'!$A$4:$C$305, MATCH(A1308,'Cost Table'!$C$4:$C$305,), MATCH("Item Description",'Cost Table'!$A$4:$C$4,))
I have the above formula to search a worksheet for an item description. It looks for a part number in one column. I need to now search two adjacent columns (maybe more down the road), can I adjust this to do that?

I am currently using these formulas in separate cells.
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("10AOANAH",'Retail Monthly Data Oct'!C296)),"TYLER OFC","")
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("10AOANAD",'Retail Monthly Data Oct'!C273)),"DALLAS NORTH OFC","")
I am trying to lookup all "10AOANA..." and return names for each of those number when found
For example
if 1 return Dog
if 2 return Cat
Something like this???
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("10AOANAH","10AOANAD","10A0ANAG" Retail Monthly Data Oct'!C296)),"TYLER OFC","DALLAS NORTH OFC","DALLAS SOUTH","")

It always hassles me to have to change the default setting of FIND to search by Columns instead of Rows.
My question is simple: Is it possible to change the default setting so that every time I use FIND it will search by Columns by default???

I recently posted a similar thread which was very well supported but I couldn’t get a solution because my requirements were not clear enough. I would like to try again with a slightly easier and clearer requirement.
I would like a spreadsheet that compares and searches columns for text and returns true if a duplicate is found.
It is similar to a lottery checker except the lines being checked could be a string instead of a single character.
I have attached a spreadsheet which helps explain what I’m trying to achieve.
Basically, a user can sequentially enter a single character to cells F1:F5. These values are then compared to columns A:C. If one of the columns contain the values in column F then return true to G1.

I have an excel spreadsheet with:
2 sheets,Sheet1 and Sheet2
4 columns (A,B,C,D)
100,000s of rows.
I need to search 3 columns, B,C and D, for particular values.
Column B needs to be = 0
Columns C and D need to be "<=0.1"
When all three criteria in the row are matched I need the value from column A in that row to be pasted to Sheet2 and then for the macro to continue searching the rows.
I have attached an extract of the data as the files size is too large to upload.

Trying to create a dynamic vba code that searches the second last active column for a particular criteria. In this case it is the value "901".
If the criteria is met it will search the row to see if value is >=0 then change to zero where applicable.
In the example, I have a loop which searches Column 6 for the matching criteria. I want to change from Column 6 to "second last column" which is Dynamic to allow for more column to search through.
The two codes below search through column "A" and Column "B". Is there anyway to make this Dynamic also so it searches from Column "A" to the 4th Last Active Column.
So the Column to check for Matching Criteria is "Second Last Column" The Data to Loop through will be from Column A to the "Fourth Last Active Column".
Public Sub ChangeCellValue_TwoConditions_ColA()
Dim Last_Row As Long
Dim iLoop As Long
Last_Row = ActiveSheet.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row + 1
For iLoop = Last_Row To 1 Step -1
If (trim(ActiveSheet.Cells(iLoop, 1).Value) >= 0) And (trim(ActiveSheet.Cells(iLoop, 6).Value) = "901") Then
ActiveSheet.Cells(iLoop, 1).Value = "0"

I have Column Headers in Row 1 (except column A), What I need to do is write a Macro or some code to
1.Search the entire row 1 for column headers containing the suffix _CSV and delete the entire columns.
2.Shift all remaining columns to the left so no blank columns exist. (There is a time stamp in row A that I wish to keep where it is.)
Next I would like a separate routine to sort the columns in the order of a Pre-defined list that I specify in a range. For example the list of column headers reside in the Range (A1:A200)

I'm trying to make vba, that takes one value(special code, up to 13 car long) from sheet4 column i1 and searches the match from sheet2 columns E:M. And when match is found, copies from sheet4 column K1 value(the same row where the code was taken from) to found match sheet(in this case sheet2) in column Q (the row must be the same where match was found)
If this maters, columns E:M may be hidden on sheet2, or E1 may be only one that's shown.
And has to loop until the end of the sheets.
By the way - i've got up to 150000 rows..

I have an XLS sheet filled with every zip code in the US... the zips are in multiple columns adjacent to columns with the corresponding county names.
Unfortunately, the there are up to EIGHTEEN columns of zip codes in each row describing the counties... not one zip per row. I'm assuming this was done to save space.
In another sheet, I have list of client zip codes and need to VLOOKUP the corresponding county from the first sheet. I'm certain I'm not using VLOOKUP right...I'm getting #N/A every time.
Is this because it's only checking the first column of zip codes? I need it to check all 18 columns of course... there are no repeated zips.
How do I do this without rebuilding the full zip database page?

I am trying to workout a formula to look-up and categorize data from a bank statement, without having to complete manually monthly.
So far I have a formula that returns the amount spent, but would need an extra column and separate table for each category.
IF(OR(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(" "&$G$3:$G$11&" "," "&A2&" "))),B2,0) where
Instead of returning B2, I would like to return a value from the table in column H3:H11 that corresponds with G2:G11, as shown below.
ColumnG ColumnH
Aldi Food
woolworths Food
Coles Food
saint Nicholas School
Blooms Medicines, toiletries, hairdressing, personal items
vodafone telephone
So for example if Aldi is in the text in A2, then I would like to return food ( from a lookup table similar to above) into the column where my formulae is ( say F2).

I've been using this site mostly for tid bits of code for VBA macros for the past few weeks. One that I was looking at and could really use doesn't seem to be working. I will be the first to tell you I have ZERO idea how to program macros, I just use them. So I was wondering if anyone would be able to fix it, or tell me if I should be doing anything other than copy/pasting it and expecting it to run. The code in question is on this page http://www.ozgrid.com/VBA/find-between.htm
From my understanding, it will find cells between a range of given numbers. When I run it I get a "Compile error: Syntax error" message. And it points me to this.
lFound = rStart .Value
Sub GetBetween()
Dim strNum As String
Dim lMin As Long, lMax As Long
Dim rFound As Range, rLookin As Range
Dim lFound As Long, rStart As Range
Dim rCcells As Range, rFcells As Range
Dim lCellCount As Long, lcount As Long
Dim bNoFind As Boolean
strNum = InputBox("Please enter the lowest value, then a comma, " _
& "followed by the highest value" & vbNewLine & _
vbNewLine & "E.g. 1,10", "GET BETWEEN")
If strNum = vbNullString Then Exit Sub
On Error Resume Next
lMin = Left(strNum, InStr(1, strNum, ","))......................

I have a worksheet(sheet1) that contains, among other things, a column of serial numbers . I also have a separate worksheet(sheet2) with one column of the serial numbers I want to find in sheet1. I need a macro that will take the serial numbers from sheet2 and find them on sheet1(there are duplicates too) so I can copy them to yet another sheet(sheet3). I already know how to do the copying, but am lost on the search.
