Identifying Cells With Same Pre-fix

Jun 29, 2007

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.

Identifying Cells In Col B That Also Appear In Col A

Jun 7, 2013

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.

Identifying Cells By Content

Nov 24, 2003

I would like to write a macro to examine a range of cells, and over-write some of those cells with a zero.

I want to over write those cells with either a numerical constant, or a formula with only constants, e.g.

"12345" or "= 123+567-(2*5)"

I do NOT want to over write cells that contain links or any functions:

"=page3!a5" or "=sum(a1:b6"

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:

=INDEX($A$2:$B$1029,MATCH(MAX($B$2:$B$1029),$B$2:$B$1029,0)-1,1)
=INDEX($A$2:$B$1029,MATCH(MAX($B$2:$B$1029),$B$2:$B$1029,0),1)

but I'd rather keep the number of columns to a minimum.

Identifying Spaces In A Cell?

May 14, 2014

I have some data that has names but is not consistant i.e

Smith, John
Smith,John

I want a formula that says, if there is a space after the comma do nothing, otherwise insert a space between.

I have figured out the second part so my formula will look like

=if(some logic to identify a space after the comma ,"",already figured out this bit)

IF Function Identifying Value Within A Range?

Aug 1, 2014

I am trying to develop an IF formula based on 2 variables;

1. The value in column Q = 4
2. The value in column AA is between -10% and 10%

When both are true, it should return a value of "YES" (or "NO" when untrue). I am having trouble with the range part. It could be that the range spans negative and positive integers, but I'm not sure. Here is what I've got at the present time:

=IF(AND(OR(Q2=4),OR(AA2<0.10)),"YES",IF(AND(OR(Q2=4),OR(AA2>-0.10)),"YES","NO"))

Identifying Value Based On A Range

Apr 17, 2014

I have two tables,

one table (TABLE1) contains the name and a mile point a

the other table (TABLE2) contains name, mile point 1, mile point 2, and other data

I want to be able to pull data from TABLE2, based on TABLE1's name and MP. I want to be able to select data from TABLE2 whose name and mile point's fit with the data from

TABLE1

MP A
SYS

10
KON

B

I want to be able to replace the ? from table1 with the correct SYS from table2 based on the MP given

I started with something like: =if(and(name=name,mpa=>mp1,mpa=<mp2)),vlookup...

The problem is this doesn't work because im comparing one to many.

Identifying Peaks In Data

May 5, 2009

I've collected some data from a GPS logger regarding the speed of an athlete. I want to calculate how many sprints this particular athlete undertook during a training session.

Sprinting is defined as a speed of > 20 kph.

One sprint would be the attainment of one peak >20 kph before decreasing below 20 kph.

It's easy to identify the 3 peaks and thus sprints from the xy scatterplot in the attached file, but I'm struggling to find a way to calculate this.

Identifying Whether Cell Has Certain Numbers In It

Jun 10, 2013

I want to sort a spreadsheet based on whether any of the numbers '1', '2' or '3' appear in a particular column.

There are 2 particular rows which I care if they have a '1', '2' or '3' in them, let's say row 17 and 18.

I want to create a formula say in row 20 which would tell me if there is a '1', '2' or '3' in the corresponding cells in EITHER (!) row 17 or 18.

An example to clarify:

Cell A17 = 1
Cell A18 = 2

Then Cell A20 would be = 1 because both A17 and A18 have a '1', '2' or '3' .

2nd example:

Cell C17 = 1
Cell C18 = 0

Then Cell C20 would be = 1 because C17 has a '1', '2' or '3' .

3rd example

Cell D17 = 6
Cell D18 = 12

Then Cell D20 would be = "" (Null - no value) because neither D17 nor D18 has a '1', '2' or '3' .

Note: I am looking just for the numbers '1', '2' or '3' not (!) numbers like 11, 12, 13, 21, 22, 23 etc...

The combinations 18 and 18 would return a "LOW" message in the third column, the combination 18 and 19 would return a message "HIGH" etc.

Identifying Times From A List

Sep 3, 2008

I have a list of variables created by a user like this:

BAND ID START END
Band1 06:00 08:59
Band2 09:00 15:59
Band3 16:00 17:59
Band4 18:00 22:30
Band5 22:31 24:29
Band6 24:30 05:59

Seperately I have data from a third party like this:

DATE TIME VALUE
18/05/08 17:22 10
19/05/08 02:15 1
20/05/08 07:14 5
20/05/08 21:36 15
20/05/08 25:43 1
21/05/08 19:15 15
22/05/08 18:26 16
22/05/08 24:59 2
etc.

I need to be able to identify which BAND ID belongs to each TIME in the list so that I can sum the VALUE figures for each BAND ID (e.g. the first time given,17:22, would belong to Band 3). have tried using LOOKUP but I can't seem to get it to work. Additionally, I have a problem with the 30 hour clock. Would I have to stick to a 24 hour clock? This would mean that I would have to find each time from the list that was between 24:00 and 05:59 and allocate it to the previous day because it is important to keep the values that I ultimately derive in the right day of the week.

Identifying Unique Identifiers

Nov 13, 2008

Our unique identifiers are from SF.com... they have created unique Account ID's.

Comp Name Unique ID
Company A - 5102AA
Company B - 5102Aa

The problem:
Excel does not recognize the capital A and the lowercase a as being different. I need to pull this data out and bounce data across tables for analytics.

The Question:
Is there any way I can get Excel to recognize 5102AA and 5102Aa as being DIFFERENT ID's?

Identifying Duplicates In List

Aug 6, 2009

Here is the deal I have 4 columns. Each line gives you the following information:
The Id is the record number, Code_Name is a code for each Fox in the study, date and area is a sub area in a bigger grid. Basically I have an area divided by squares and every time a marked fox enters in one of my squares a new line in the data is created. What I won’t to know is if a fox when in my area of study will return to the same squares or not.

ID

CODE_NAME

Date

Area

Logical
116

SSS1
02-Jan-09
1A1

273

RRR1
02-Jan-09
2A2

2959

BBB1
02-Jan-09
1B1

2959

What I’m trying to achieve is a 5th column were ill get a logical value of TRUE or FALSE if, for each fox in the next available record a fox went back to the same square or not.
So if you check for the fox RRR1 I have 2 records one in 2 of January in area 1A1 and a second in 7 of January in the same area. For the Fox BBB1 you will see that she was always in different areas and for CCC1 she only came back to one square.

The problem is I have over 400 fox’s and 12000 records and I’m trying to get a way of doing it automatically.

Identifying Currency Format

Jun 20, 2006

When using the formula '= CELL("format",G3)' the result is ',2' for Euros, US and Canadian Dollars. As you can see in my spreadsheet this does not enable me to calculate sums (ie. Total Canadian Dollars) using the currency format. Is there something other than "format" that would get a more precise result that would differentiate between currencies?

How To Import XML Identifying Certain Tags / Headers

Aug 17, 2010

I am about to re write my vba project as I can see that I need to make it more robust. One of the main issues I have is that the source XML file is not controlled by me. The quality and content is consistent but sometimes the order of the columns is different. At the moment that totally throws out my macro as it relies on certain columns for certain functions.

Trying to nut out the best way to import an XML file, keep only the specific columns I want - by content not location so then all follow on formula's will work and reference the correct data.

I have one theory that I can't get going. I thought if using defined names based on column headers this would allow me to keep and sort the columns I want. I can't find any examples to support this. I have been looking at the advanced filter but most examples reference exact cells which isn't flexible and leaves open to wrong data being pulled. Since I can't control the source doc what can I do?

Identifying Phrase In A Text List

I want to create a rule in a cell to identify if one of those phrases comes up - so if chicken comes up then a 1 would appear.

To make it interesting is it possible to grab two words from the cell, so grab the words chicken and beef from a mass of words in one cell and bring it across.

I have these cells which contain huge amount of text and preferences and I am looking to identify these entities on if they contain these words.

Identifying Start And End Dates In A Series

Jul 11, 2007

i am trying to both identify the start date and the end date of a series in excel.

if you will, picture a spreadsheet with two rows with data. the top row is comprised of dates in mm/dd/yy (end of month) format. the bottom line is percentages . . . a corresponding % for each date directly above. these percentages add to 100%. in two separate formulas, I would like to identify:

1. the date in which the first %>0 occurs (start date)
2. the date in which the cumulative addition of all months %'s equate to 100% or the date in which the last %>0 occurs (end date)

keep in mind many if not most of the %'s will be 0%.

Identifying Duplicate Values (2nd / 3rd And 4th Occurrence)

Jul 31, 2013

I have a list of "GPC" or company identification numbers. And for every campaign being sent to the company it will have the same GPC of identification code. I want a formula that indicates if it is the first time mailing the company (as a result return nothing for column D ""), the second time mailing them, third, or fourth. So basically I need a formula to find the duplicate values and return whether it is the first, second, third, or fourth time that code appears in column A.

The current formula I have is a little off because it checks against the cell beforehand. I'm not sure how to modify the formula or what different forumla I need. Attached is an example. I am looking at column A and trying to return the data in D. You can also see the faulty formula I currently have in place.
