I am trying to write a formula that says if a name is in a column of names put a 1 otherwise put 0. Should be a simple If, match function. I have attached a simple example.....
View 5 RepliesOn sheet 1 I have a list of 1000 firstnames
On sheet 2 I have a list of 1000 emails,
I need a function that states If a cell in the email column contains a string or value from the names column, it will result in a true statement so that I can separate out the emails that have these peoples first names.
I have an excel workbook with a dynamic dependent drop down list setup, works a treat on the first worksheet i set it up on.
However here's the problem, my workbook contains a good handful of worksheets each named to reflect the certificate on the page, i need the drop down list to work on each tab. problem is when i setup the index/match function it requires a specific sheet name to make it work i.e.
=INDEX(Table1,0,MATCH(PI!$C20,Table1[#Headers],0))
However what i need it to do is reference the worksheet name, as new ones get added and names may change, something like
=INDEX(Table1,0,MATCH(&ActiveSheet.Name&$C20,Table1[#Headers],0))
However this doesn't work, i do have a cell on each page that holds the Sheet name using the function:
=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,256)
But I cant even get it to use that cell as a reference in my formula.
I have a data set where the row headings repeat a lot. I have 5 headers repeated probably 30-45 times each. Eg. Truck, Car, Van, Tank, House, Car
At the moment I am using the formula...
=INDEX($B$2:$M$45,MATCH($O$2,$A$2:$A$45,0),MATCH(O4,$B$1:$M$1,0))
which will only return the result of the first occurrence of the cell it is looking for (for eg. I am looking for the values in the cells in columns labelled 'Car', is it possible for it to look past the first occurrence in the data set and find all the values?
I need to look up the name in E2 in the list in column A and if it matches then lookup name in F2 in list column b, if it matches then the corresponding number in column C is displayed in column G. If neither names are in the 2 columns the words"Not on lists" is displayed in cell in column G.
The other problem is one name is spelled two different ways I want it to look for both spelling before moving on to looking up the second name.
I started with this formula but I'm getting #N/A or "not on list" when they are on the list. I'm using ranges prod_sum is columns AthruC, Last_name is range BthruC. =IF(AND(VLOOKUP(F4,prod_sum,3,0),VLOOKUP(I4,last_name,2,0)),"not on list")
The following code works to update the target sheet based on matching column names within the source sheet.
However, I would like to bolster this by not only updating based on matching field names, but also the primary key in column A. Meaning the data from the source sheet isn't always in the same order (based on primary keys) as the data in the target sheet. So I want to keep the order of the primary key in the first column and then update matching field names in column B through the last column where the primary keys match between the source and target worksheets.

I want to be able to have it index the number below based on the GL number on the left and both the year and period on the top. I think that you can do with using the sumproduct function with the binary, but the computer is a little dated and it takes a while to run those calculations.

I have column A with 1000 cells tall with a bunch of random whole numbers from 1-100. In cell B1 I enter the formula:
=MATCH(25,A1:A1000,0)
This goes through the data and outputs the location of the first instance of "25". However my data has 8 instances of "25", and I want to know all of them. So basically in B2, B3, B4, ... I want to enter:
=MATCHsecond(25,A1:A1000,0)
=MATCHthird(25,A1:A1000,0)
=MATCHfourth(25,A1:A1000,0)
...
Obviously MATCHsecond isn't a real function, but that should explain what I'm looking for.
I have a formula that uses the MATCH function in a column of cells. My "lookup array" value for this MATCH function is A11:A411. I paste my data set into column A and if my data set is smaller than 200 (i.e. less than half the size of the lookup array size) then THE MATCH FUNCTION DOESN'T WORK. Weird.
1. Is there a way to make MATCH work all the time, no matter what the size of my data set?
2. One solution would be to have my "lookup array" be variable. Is there a way that I could change A11:A411 to A11:A"row of last value in data set"? OR to say it another way, is there syntax to describe a range with variables as the row numbers?
I am trying to use some vba match function code to return the column number of the matching date. The date will be stored in a date variable.
Every time I run this code I normally get a match error even though the date is in the worksheet and the variable matches that date.

Got a worksheet that has list of football teams
Man utd
Man city
Tottenham hotspur etc.
in two seperate worksheet i download external data from 2 different website with some stats about teams. Problem is that theses websites user slighty different names for the teams ie. it will be man city from one source and manchester city from another. i need to somehow get the names to match up is there an easy way to do this?
I have two columns listing about 400 and 500 names respectively.
First Column has names in alphabetical order and the second column is random.
One column has names in this format: Last name, First name
And the other column lists the names as first name and then last name without the comma
I am trying to see if the list of names in one column exists in the other.
Is there a way to see this without changing the format of the names in each column? If so do I have to erase the comma?

I am having some trouble getting a formula to work. I am building a report that pulls figures from a pivot table in another workbook. I am using a vlookup with match function to get the column index to find the relevant data I want. Where I need to add two columns together I am using sum, with the vlookup & match formulas nested in them e.g.:
=SUM(VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("FAID",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE),VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("COMM",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE),VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("BPCM",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE),VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("COMD",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE))
Where:
F13 = Employee number
Column C on the pivot 156 workbook is where the employee number is based.
The Match formula is then getting the column index from the column headings of the pivot table ie. "FAID"
This in itself works fine, as long as it finds a match in the column headings. This is where i get the error as in the above function "COMD" is not in the pivot table. However I need to keep it included as it may appear on a future pivot table. Is there a way of getting the sum function to complete even though later in the formula it can't complete the vlookup? So it will ignore it, or assume the value is zero if it can't find it? The formula probably needs to do this for all the vlookups as some headings may drop off in future pivot tables.
I am trying to match data from 2 independent sets, formatted slightly differently so not sure which function would work best for me. From the attached file, I am trying to match the date and time stamp (in cell A1) with that from the other data (in this example in cell E1) and return the data (from cell F1) to cell C1. So basically any date and time stamp before 04/03/09 04:00 will return a value of 44 (this value should appear, therefore in cells C1 - C30)

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet which has the following data;
Names Age Salary
Fred 23 $19,000
Joe 35 $26,000
Alan 45 $7,000
Richard 32 $25,000
James 19 $16,000
Ian 23 $28,000
Michelle 30 $45,000
I'm trying to list the names only where their age is "xx" or if I choose a certain salary, obviously there are hundreds of names, age's and salary information. How can I carry this out in excel ?
let me start by saying that I know an example workbook would be useful here, but the part I'm struggling with is the [managementroster.xlsm] file, and there is A. no way I can release it to the internets and B. its so huge/complicated I couldn't even begin to reproduce a portion of it, scrubbed of data, and hope to maintain its functionality in a meaningful manner.

This formula checks a staff number on this spreadsheet, and then goes and looks at the staff number on the roster. Once found, it returns that staff members roster, but changes any manager codes in the MRC list to Mgr, and changes all other roster codes to Free.
I now need this formula, before altering roster codes to Mgr or Free, to only return codes that are a match for another table (or after really. I don't particularly care, so long as only codes are shown that match data from another table). I think an index/match function would do the trick, but this forumula is already at the edge of my excel ability, nesting another function within it is completey beyond me. The relevant cells for the index/match function would be:
This first Match function targets the column. $E3 is the date required, $BA$1:$DN$1 is the range the dates are entered in
Match: Lookup value = $E3
Lookup array = '[ManagementRoster.xlsm]Vacancies!'$BA$1:$DN$1
match type = 0
This second Match function targets the row. $A$4 is the department name, $B$434:$B$452 is the range where all departments are entered
Match: Lookup value = $A$4
Lookup Array = '[ManagementRoster.xlsm]Vacancies!'$B$434:$B$452
match type = 0
Index: array = $BA$434:$DN$452
So I think my final function is

But I have absolutely NO idea where it would fit within my first formula, or how to code it so that my original formula only reproduces results that are found in both sheets, or anything.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI thought i had worked it out, but for some reason the names aren't updating when i add a new time, and the same names appear when i add the same code for a different track. I was using this code {=INDEX(A2:A32,SMALL(IF(C2:C32<>0,ROW(C2:C32)),1),1)} as you can seen in cell A34, then added a 2 onto it for the second fastest time eg.....{=INDEX(A2:A32,SMALL(IF(C2:C32<>0,ROW(C2:C32)),2),1)}, but doesn't seem to update when adding a new fastest time in. Am i using the wrong code to match the names with the fastest times?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've been trying for a few time to make a sub, on VBA, that writes, in a specific column, " " or 1 depending on the date that is inserted. The thing I can't quite do is:
1 - I have a sheet where the different projects of a company are stored (name, starting date, ending date and person responsible) and where new projects can be added from a UserForm
2 - I also have another sheet were costs from the projects are stored (one line with cost 1 from project 1, another with cost 2 also from project 1 and cost 3 from project 2, etc) and where I can also add a new cost with another UserForm (this cost as also a date that is added, to when it happened)
3 - What I need to do is, on the costs' sheet I need to create a sub that in the last column adds me 1 if the date of the cost added is not a date between the starting and ending date of the project that it corresponds.
I have two lists of names and I need to identify the people that appear on both lists. Often it is difficult to match the common records because a nickname may be used for either of the first names and not the other.
I've collated an extensive list of nicknames to help match the records, but I'm stumped on how to use it. I have a feeling that there is a sumproduct formula in my future. I attached a samples workbook.
I have two sheets of same names with different data in each sheet. I need to refer the name in the first sheet and match the same name in the second sheet and retrieve the start date.

I have two sheets. Sheet A (Receiving Log) contains all orders with NAME (D1) and QTY ORDERED(E1). Sheet B(Component Reject Tag) contains all rejects with NAME(D1) and QTY REJECT(E1). Sheet A and B are Many to Many relationship
What I am trying to figure out is:
Match the names from Sheet B to Sheet A and sum up the QTY REJECT from Sheet B divide by the sum of QTY ORDERED for the NAME from Sheet A.
Business would like to get QTY Reject percentage by each NAME (Supplier)
In a final table lets say Sheet C I would like to see NAME, QTY Ordered, QTY Reject, Ratio in which will allow my to perform a Top 10 suppliers of highest reject percentage.
Another note to mention, Sheet C presumably to have all the formulas as in Sheet A and B will be overwritten and pasted with new data.
(Matching names)where cell G and cell H in Data Sheet matches with cell A and cell B in template sheet , copy cell K on matching row in data sheet to matching name in cell D in the template sheet.
Could be as many as 50 rows of data in data sheet and only a range of D8 to D15 in template sheet.

I have document1, which is a main list of surnames names, which then show 'hours', 'employment number', and 'post', in the following columns.
In document2, I have a sheet with a selection of these names, and blank cells for the named columns above.
What i need to do is have excel search and match the name from document2, to the name in document 1, and fill in the above columns with the correct data.
is that some of the surnames will show up more than once in my main list - so if possible i would like excel to then search the first name (which is in the preceding column) and match both the first and second names to the main list - OR - to simply return an error so that i can spot, and input the data manually.
I have several Campaign Names (about a thousand) and about 25000 categories (with ID's) to choose from and would like to assign the Category ID's to the Campaign Names without doing manual searches.

I will attach an example of both my Campaign and my Category file for reference. Example Complicated Vlookup.xlsx
