Identifying Cells From The Results Of An Array Formula
Oct 12, 2006
I have a long list (>1000) of increasing temperatures in column A. I use an array formula, {=MAX(A3:A1029-A2:A1028)} to find the largest change between two successive values. What I need to do then is obtain the two values that give rise to that difference (for instance, they might be in A678 and A679). I can't figure out a formula for this.
I can manage it if I insert a "difference" column in B, and use:
I work with a mammoth product database where the information, dates, etc. for products can be changed on a monthly basis. What I would like to do is create a spreadsheet that accurately identifies any changes to the information and dates of each product, and which can then group the changes together to minimize the need for humans to check for changes product-by-product (the database contains thousands of unique products).
Presently I’m able to get all of the information for both the current month and prior month onto one spreadsheet. I added the very simple True-False formula to check certain cells in each product row against the same cells for that product row in the prior month.
Where I’m running into a wall, though, is finding a way of easily identifying all of the changes. Ideally I would like to sort all of the rows so that the Falses are grouped together. But, as you’ve probably all realized before even reading this far, this doesn’t work because of course it changes the cells that the True-False formulas measures. I’ve tried adding $ before each cell in the True-False formulas, but same result as without. Obviously a search for False will get a hit on every single formula.
I have a range that has formulas that are based on other fcells outside the range.
What I want to do is, if the cell has a value to remove the formula and paste the results. If the filed is blank (no results from the formula) to leave the formula in place.
There could be a marco to run when this process is needed.
I have organized account numbers from two systems onto a spreadsheet, with numbers from System 1 arrayed in Column A and numbers from System 2 arrayed in Column B. I need to evaluate the numbers in both columns and isolate the numbers that are NOT DUPLICATES across the two systems (Columns A and B) and return a list of non-duplicate numbers in Column C. Here is what the table would look like:
In the two columns listed below I need to figure out what formulas could be used to create the "Last Status" column. To better understand the dynamics of the two columns, pretend that the cell mark in bold is where you are currently residing in the worksheet and you look upward in the first column to see what the last status was and you use a formula to enter this value into the cell just to the right of the bold B. T
To get cell to display results of formula I must edit (F2) and hit enter. Is there an easy way to do this in bulk rather than editing and hitting enter on hundreds of cells?
Example of formula: =IF(COUNTBLANK(K2)=1,"",CONCATENATE("*** ",K1,": ",K2," "))
So basically I have a spreadsheet that tracks if a patient has turned in there required paperwork within the last 6 months and then changes the cell to white and lets me know how many days they have left until they are due to turn this paperwork in again. Then if it has expired I have a condition format change the cell to Red but I would like to add in the text EXPIRED to the cell. lastly I have Cells that have no data in them gray and I would like to add in red text saying No Paperwork.
I'm hoping this will be my last build of this spreadsheet so I can go ahead and start applying it to the real workbook [URL]
I am trying to find a formula that will allow me to reference another page in my spread sheet. In my scenario the row I am referencing has 5 consectutive numbers after the reference point I would use for a vlookup. These numbers are all zeros except for one number in each row which will be a positive number greater than zero. I want my formula to check the first cell in the row, if it is not a zero it will show that number, but if this cell contains 0, then it moves over to the next cell. If all the cells in the row have a zero, then i just want zero to appear on my summary sheet. I tried to do a vlookup with an IF function, but I couldn't get it to work. I have attached a sample of what the spreadsheet looks like.Example doc.xlsx
I've got an If statement in Excel which features several VLookups - I need the IF statement to return differing results to 2 different cells, is this possible?
In plain English, I'm looking for something like
If(Vlookup(A2, B2:D5, 4, False), C6="y" And D7="ok", "False")
I am currently working on a data analysis project (data mining) and need to collect and later analyze statistics for the inputs which control a series of calculations. These statistics are shown in the Statistics 1, Statistics 2 and Statistics 3 cells in the workbook that I attached. The inputs are X,Y; all possible values for these inputs are listed in the N,O columns. Basically I need a macro which would take the values from these two columns and place them pair after pair into the controlling cells (K3, L3), then it would copy cells H2 through L3 (updated stats) to a new sheet after each copy operation - so that I will finally have a list of statistics for all of the input pairs.
I began to ponder a way to copy down cells so that the copying of the formulas results in references as shifting horizontally instead of vertically. One particular reason that this occurred to me had to do with my attempting to use Excel to make more orderly text copied from Adobe.
So, for example, if I copied text from Adobe, I would paste it in Excel. Thirty lines of text would past vertically into a column, from Row A1 to Row A30, with each line of text in its own row. I wanted to figure out a way so that in adjacent columns, I could put it so that I would have a set of formulas reading in =A1 in Column C cell/row 1, =A2 in Column D cell 1, =A3 in Column E cell/row 1, =A4 in Column F cell/row 1, =A5 in Column G cell/row 1, and so forth. I realized that if I copied this down, in the second row, the result would entail references to A2, A3, A4, A5, A6. I would prefer that the references update to A6, A7, A8, A9, and A10.
So I have a list of integers in col A that is a truncated list from col B. I want to select the units in col B that do not appear in col A. I tried this statement
=IF(A2=B2,A2,0)
Since both lists (A and B) are ordered from smallest to largest this only worked until a value that is not in ColA appears in ColB and then all the cells following = O.
I have a column of cells, of which certain values have the prefix "EmployeeID:". I'm trying to identify the cells containing the prefix by evaluating each cell using activecell.offset and value to no avail. I've also tried to use the selection. find, however the first instance of the prefix is continually selected, and does not move on. I'm assuming that I must use the findnext feature, however I'm not having much success.
I am working with some fairly long formulas and I am looking for a way to highlight those cells AND work in the document. I know you can click in the cell and it will highlight them, but if you click off the cell the highlights go away. Is there a way to keep them highlighted?
i am trying to work out how to use the rank formula to rank numbers in column B and keep them in unison with Column A.
So Column A has say 5 1's with column B having different scores then continuing under 1 in A is 2 and so on is there a way to continue the ranking formula without manually changing the cell ranges?
so =rank(B1,$B$1:$B$7,1) but can i do that if A =1 and then A=2 etc ? so if A=1,rank(B1,$B$1:$B$7,1)
I am trying to create formula that will show overtime worked in a given day. The code I am using is a simple one ([ cell - 8], for hours worked). The problem is when the time cells are blank/not used it shows a -8 in the cell. what I need to do to create a code that will eliminate the -8 from showing. The cell its self is taking the result from another cell with a formula and then subtracting 8 from the result of the formula in the other cell.
If I have an assortment of odd and even values in range a1:j100, using the Array formula {=If(Mod(a1:j100,2),"",a1:j100)} will clear out all the odds, leaving the evens.
Is there a way I can add to this formula to color the qualifying cells (odds in this instance)? I know Conditional formatting is perfectly suited for the job but I am looking for a departure from this.
and am copying it to other cells using this Sub copyformula() With Sheets("Sheet2") .Range("B3:B5000").Formula = .Range("B3").Formula End With End Sub It does the copy but removes the { and } thus rendering the formula useless to me. How can I accomplish this task and keep the formula as an array formula?
I tried to drag the formula down and recorded it as a macro but when it runs it takes far to long.
Essentially I have inherited a spreadsheet which is crammed full of complex array formulas.
No problem in itself as I understand array formulas pretty well (or so I think!). My problem is that when i want to ammend some of these, i cannot easily see what range I need to highlight in order to edit them i.e. I obviously cant do a single cell as its part of an array. I hope I have made myself clear?
So my question is this.
When the cursor is sat in a cell that is part of an array formula, how can I easily find out ( ideally by the array formula range being highlighted in (say) red ) what cells are included in the array formula?
I have a database of approximately 250000 email addresses and I would like to see if there is some way to use Excel to analyse the strings in order to identify potential 'non-unique' individuals.
For example, if I have the following email addresses: 12345@example.com 12346@example.com 12347@example.com or example1@example.com example2@example.com etc
Is there some way of extracting common text strings, lets say where there is a difference of 1 character / digit between strings (rather than alphabetising and searching manually)?
I have an array formula that takes in a bunch of dates and returns the next date that is not in the past:
{=MIN(IF($N$4:$N$28<TODAY(),999999,$N$4:$N$28))}
This works great, but I'm wondering if there is a way I can write it to work on cells that are not adjacent to each other. For example, can I have it operate on only cells N4, N7, N15, and N22? Is there an easy way to do this?
I have spreadsheet that displays many blank cells. I would like all the information from this sheet (example below) displaying on another spreadsheet but without the blank cells.
On the example below I've shown how I want my sheet3 to look. (Cells B19:I22) The sheet where I want to remove the blanks is Sheet2 B2:AE367
Is this possible using array formulas or macro?

I have a list of 10k cells with Peoples names in various formats (Title,First name,initials,Surname etc and variations).
I am trying to identify the cells that have within the string the following : 'space','UpperCase Char','LowerCase Char','space' (eg Prof " Dc " Jones).
I need to then change the lowercase char to uppercase.
I have an Excel document which receives data dump from a weather website cells B1:I20. I need the temperature and dew point from cells B3:I3, however the data is returned in a "Temperature / Dew Point" format. To use the data, I separate the Temp and DP into their own cells B22:I23 by:
I have 4000 rows of data with numbers in it (only one column...column C). These numbers are consecutive but these have breaks in between. So I am trying to find out where those breaks are and output those points in a list. So here is a macro that I came up with...but these array doesn't seem to write out results.... can anybody help please?
This macro tries to compare the two adjacent cells and if the difference between the values is greater than 1 then it copies that value in an array and writes that value in a cell in the same sheet.
Sub Macro1() Dim temp(1, 1000) As Integer i = 0 previouscell = 0 For Each cell In Range("C:C") currentcell = cell.Value abc = previouscell + 1 If currentcell <> abc Then temp(1, i) = currentcell i = i + 1 Range("D" & i).Value = temp(1, i) End If previouscell = cell.Value
I would like to use array v to store all the results of the for loop u...How can Ido it?
Dim myRange As Range Dim AnsRange1 As Integer Dim AnsRange As Range Set myRange = Application.InputBox(Prompt:="Select row to insert 10 rows below", Type:=8) AnsRange1 = myRange.Row Dim u As Integer Dim v As Integer Dim var() As Single v = 0 For u = 23 To 24022 Step 9 var(v) = u Next u If Not (AnsRange1 = v) Then MsgBox AnsRange1 Else Range(AnsRange1 & ":" & AnsRange1 + 9).Insert Shift:=xlDown End If End If
