Identify Non-blank Cells In Irregular List
Jun 21, 2007
I regularly import a list of data into Excel containing employee team names, employee names, and (for these purposes, irrelevant) data. The team name is the only data in column I, and therefore I can easily pick this up an summarise it in a lookup. The employee name is always one row above it, and in column D. However, it is not the only data in column D, and each employee's records contain varying numbers of rows. How can I have Excel copy the employee name in to column J, alongside the team name in column I, but ONLY in rows where there is data in column I?

I have a list that looks something like this:
Column B
Row 4 Item 1
Row 5 Item 2
Row 6
Row 7
Row 8 Item 3
Row 9
Row 10 Item 4
Row 11
Row 12
Row 13
Row 14 Item 5
The range of cells in column B containing the items has a name "ColStreams"
I need to go through the list, filling in each blank cells with the value contained in the first non-blank cell above it - so, in this case, rows 6 and 7 would contain "Item 2", row 9 would contain "Item 3", rows 11-13 would contain "Item 4" and so on.

I have a list in column L2:L352. I would like to be able to start at AD2 and drag horizontally so that AD2 = L2, AE2 = <BLANK>, AF2 = <BLANK>, AG2 = L3, AH2 = <BLANK>, AI2 = <BLANK>, AJ2 = L4, etc.... until L352 has been autofilled.

I want to show in tab total view the advices for problems which come from a questionnaire. This questionnaire applies to its advices on the basis of given questions of the user. In the advice tab you can see the advice given for each question. Because I have shown in the advice tab in column B if the advice need be in the tab total overview, if this is not the case there is nothing visible there (empty cel). In column C indicated by 1 if the text should be to the overview tab and a 0 if the specified text should not be taken to the tab overview. How can I get in the overview tab only the text from column B which have in column C the value 1 (without the empty cels)? Even when the data in tab advice changes i want that the information in the tab overview also changes.

I have a spreadsheet with columns and columns of data. What I'd like to do is identify which rows have blank/no data in all specified columns (H, K, O, S, U, W, and Y).
To clarify, I need to identify each row where all of these columns are blank (as opposed to each row where at least 1 column is blank).

I have a list in one worksheet which comes from "=SALESMEN!$D:$D" but the list is extremely long with blank values. How can I make the list only show values from column D which are non-blank?
Currently the list goes up to 30, however I want to use all of Column D from the SALESMEN worksheet, that way if I add to it, the names will automatically be added to the list in the other sheet.

I've used this site for help many times, but this was the first time I couldn't find the answer to my question through searching. I've looked all over this site & elsewhere, tried 2 dozen different solutions, and nothing seems to work.
I've used a budgeting spreadsheet for years, which lets me plan bills weekly according to paychecks. For each month, going down the "Expenses" column, there lists are seperated by when they'll occur. So there may be three blank cells, then electric bill, mortgage, blank, blank, cable bill, blank, cell phone, blank, gasoline.
On the checkbook worksheet, I want to enter a drop down box for the Expenses. The problem is, every solution I've found for doing this is aimed at eliminating blank spaces at the end of the list. This by necessity has to have blank spaces throughout the list, but I would like them to disappear in the drop down menu.

I have a list of about 100 cells that's going to have user-inputed data for varying cells that could repeat. For example:
AAA
(blank)
BBB
(blank)
(blank)
AAA
(blank)
CCC
etc.
I need a formula(s) for a second list that can find the non-blank cells and put them in order (not necessarily alphabetical).

I am trying to make a more useful excel extracted report what I have to start with is muck like the attached sample file. With at the bottom is what I would like to be auto done.
There is a column of names with most names repeating so the first thing needed is to create a new summary list can be in the same worksheet or in a new worksheet. The new list with be just a list of each name but only display each name once rather that the multiple of times as source list.
The second requirement is than once have a list of each name that appears then in columns next to each a tally /count of each non blank cell under each respective column heading - now it has to be a count of non blank cells as the content of each cell will chance now need to understand it is not a count of numerals as such but a count of non blank cells so it is not 1 + 3 + 5 = 9 but should be 1 +3 + 5 = 3 (3 non blanks).
A idea of what I want is at bottom of sample worksheet attached

I am trying to sort a list of business development leads. When a lead is dead I enter the date in the column entitled "Closed". Therefore, the Closed cell for active leads is blank. Whilst I still wish to retain the information of dead leads, when sorting I would like them listed at the bottom of the list. However, whenever I sort on the Closed column, whether using newest to oldest or oldest to newest, the blank cells are always at the bottom, instead of the top.
How to get the sorted blank cells to the top?
I'm using Excel 2011 on Mac OS X 10.7.

I have 10 columns that are as follows. Name, rank 04, name, rank 05, name, rank 06, name, rank 07, name, rank 08. The longest name and rank list is over 1200 names long. What I need to do is create 1, 3, and 5 year averages based on rank.
My question is, is there a way to sort alphabetically that will automatically align column a,c,e,g,and i alphabetically that will also align each row by name.
example:
name 04 05 06
joe 75 72
paul 82
carl 72 48
Joe isn't present in 05, Paul isn't present in 04 or 06, and Carl isn't present in 06.
Basically I need excel to add blank cells for people not on each years list so all names align.

This might be pretty tricky. I'm trying to create formulae that can find non-empty cells in a list, and separate by date.
Example:
The following are given:
DateItem
1/23AAA
1/24
1/25BBB
1/26
1/27
1/28
[Code]....
I would like:
List 1 (Jan) List 2(Feb)
AAA BBB
BBB CCC
The original equation was for finding non-blank items without separating by date was given to me below Hopefully it's much easier with it: [URL]...

Have a list of approx. 125 people (for our church's prayer list). What I would like to do is have a formula/macro that will identify and print the ones on the list
-that have been on the list less than 2 months
-identify by printing one "*" by thier name when the 2 months will be up in 2 weeks
-identify by printing two "**" by the name when the person will be removed in one week.
Another way of stating what I am wanting Excel's functions to do is the following:
In one column, I would enter the date a person is added to the list, then I would want the formula/macro to calculate the date the person would be removed from the list. When the list is printed weekly for our bulletin, I would like the program to create the list/print only the persons who have been on the list less than two months. In addition, I would like for the ones that will be removed in 2 weeks to be identified with an asterick when the printing is done. Then 2 astericks when the person would be removed in one week.(This would allert people to update us on the person's condition and continued need for special prayer.)
Of course, I would like this calculation to be done automatically when the data base is opened. OR REQESTED. I'm not sure of my terminology here! I want the calculations to be done without me having to redo the database and formula/macro weekly.
I sure hope this request is clear!

It's a time sheet that I need to have whatever data is listed in column E to be listed starting in cell C27 but only once even if it's listed several times. In cell D27 I need the sums to match the data to it's left with the values from above in column D. I've used fill colors to help show my intent. I would also like it to keep track of remaining vacation time by recognizing the word 'VAC' from column E and subtract the value from it's left. This value is shown in cell J26 as '46hrs REMAINING'.

I need to identify duplicates in a list and have the foilowing formula:
=IF( COUNTIF(range1,A2)>1,"Duplicate","")
This works ok but i have a further condition which i dont know how to factor into the formula. I think i could write some vba to determine the dupes but i was hoping to avoid this as im sure it will take me an hour or so. Duplicates are identified at the moment as being identical numbers in column "amount", i now need to specify duplicates as being identical numbers in this range where there is at least one row with no pay date filled in in col "paydate"

In an excel file I have 2 lists of files. List #1 has about 6,000 filenames and List #2 is a subset of List #1.
I am looking for a solution which will help me highlight/identify those files which are also in list#2.
Ofcourse one way is to sort both lists and then place them in consecutive columns (say column A and column B) and then in another column (column C) use a IF function to identify if A1=B1 (or A1 <> B1) and then take it from there. However this approach helps a litle becuase there may be a gap in List#2 and thus for a great # of cells in column C i will end up getting false answer. Hope you're following me??
The underlying requirement for this is rather lenghty so I'm skipping those details. However I would like to share that so far and whenever I come across doing this exercise (about 3-4 times a month), I ended up achieving the results but it takes me hours.

- I have a list of 8 digit numbers in Column A sorted small to large
- Some of the 8 digit numbers are duplicated.
- In Column B I would like to have more of a combination of countif and listing the duplicates in order (1 for the first dup in the column, 2 for the 2nd, etc.)
Example of what I'd like to see
Column A Column B
123456781
123456782
132546841
685036541
985413561
985413562
985413563
As you can see if the number in column A is on the list one time column B would show a 1If the number is shown two times (the first time it shows up will show a 1 the second will show a 2) If the number is shown 3 times (the first time it shows up will show a 1 the second will show a 2, the third tiem would show a 3)

I have in column A and B. A includes two (or may be more) kind of items, i.e. drink and snack. Column B has for example water next to drink and chips next to snack. The list is huge.
How can I generate a drop down list with data which uses the A column to identify the items which it should include. I want to make two separate drop down lists for drink and snack and each should include only those options which belong to those categories. I.e. drink list should be like water, cola, pepsi, etc. The problem is that the list is huge and it's not possible to sort it. Some kind of if statement structure with named range? The drop down should be dynamic in a sense that if I add line to data, it should be picked to the right drop down menu.

I have written a UDF to do some calculations i a workbook. I would like to run a sub, checking the cells in the spreadsheet to see if my formula is present. and if so, then add or change an argument in the formula. My problem is:
How do I write the code so that it will recognize my formula ? Is it possible to attach a tag to a formula which Excel can search for ? I cannot search for the formula including arguments from specific cells, relativ to the formula cell, as the user is free to input the arguments with reference from anywhere in the workbook.

Ok so my named range looks like this:
[Code]....
However, I want to ignore the "" cells and the truly blank cells... However, I think all of them will have "" since I have this formula in all of the ones I'm putting in the range:
[Code]....
How do I go about getting these results into a named range so I can use it on validation since validation only seems to ignore truly blank cells and not the "" ones.

I'm trying to extract specific character from a set of text strings which have irregular patterns. For example:
CJWHCon.D005 - JN Holding Inc Corporate
CUSViWind.D404 - Windows Ringtown Vinyl
My goal is to get only the 'DXXX' which sometimes might be only 'DXX'. I've tried using the following formula but I seem to be going wrong somewhere as I only get 'D'.
=MID(F10,FIND(".",F10)+1,FIND(" ",F10,FIND(" ",F10)+1)-1-FIND(" ",F10))

I am trying to parse stock holdings for certain companies but I am running into trouble because they are not uniform in their form. The data has a general form but each company uses a slightly different style for the forms. These differences are hamstringing my efforts to effectively parse the data. I have attempted to parse the data using the split function to get it into a more manageable form, and then use various comparisons to tease out the right information. This, however, has not panned out like I hoped. Below are some sample data forms and some of my (albeit poorly written and structured) VBA to try and solve the problem.........
I am trying to extract the same fields from each, such as name or number of shares:
3COM CORP 885535104 1,700,000
Prudential Financial, Inc. 432848109 100,000
this would be a desired output.
here is some of my code to try and accomplish this. this seems to work the data if it is formatted correctly, but I would like write a general parser, and this is what I am struggling with. I cannot figure out how to write something that will correclty parse these irregular strings.
txt = ActiveCell.Value
x = Split(txt, " ")
name = ""
cusip = ""
shrs = "".....................
