Ignore Value In VLookup
May 5, 2014
I have a huge data set that simplified looks like the one below.
I would like to write a vlookup formula that ignores vlookup-value="need manual input", "", and "N/A", and instead continue to find the next lookup value that is not equal to "". if no match at all or only match to "" or "need manual input" I want the output to be "need manual input"
So, in worksheet 1 cell B1 i want to generate value 73530C10 (lookup-table cannot be sorted)
Worksheet 1
A
1
Bob
2
John

Can I get VLookup to ignore certain data.
My situation is this,
Sheet 1 has
ColumnA Column B
Name Job#
Bob 1234
Bob 1235
Bob 1236
On Sheet 2 I have a combo box so I can pick any name from column A on sheet
one, then I want to use Vlookup, or whatever will work, to show me the Job
numbers that a selected person has worked on. So when I pick "bob" from my
combo box in A1, B1:B3 would display 1234, 1235, 1236.

I have in column D starting D9, I have numbers starting at 1, and may finish at 100. But there could be duplicates, 1,2,3,3,4,5,6,6,7,7,8,9,10,10,11,12,13,.........
I would like to only copy the range D9 to H (End of column D), ignoring all the duplicate numbers, to another sheet.
So on the second sheet, it would be 1,2,3,4,5,6...... with the data copied from E,F,G and H.

I am trying to figure the sum of cells B12:B28. However some of the cells in the range have a #N/A error due to a VLOOKUP function that is pulling data from a different sheet. Currently the data it is pulling is a blank cell, but will at some point have a value in it. How can I make the SUM function ignore the #N/A?

I have a column of numbers that are calculated by a formula that doesn't always come up with an answer and returns the value #NUM!. See the attached XLS. The answer to the sum function is always #NUM! if a #NUM! is included in column of values put into the SUM function. I currently work around this issue by redoing the column with the SUM statement to avoid the #NUM!'s. Is there a logical test that can be applied to solve this issue? an I add another column that reset the #NUM! to ZERO and then SUM that column?

I want formula to leave cell empty if there is 0 somewhere but to real value if there is something else.
So far I figured how to do the first part.
=IF(A1;"0";"")

I have Dynamic named ranges (SUMPV)
SUMPV is range I31:I300
I use the following formula to sum up.
=SUM(SUMPV)
The problem is that sume cells night produce #value thus giving an error in the Sum formula.
I tried the =SUMIF(SUMPV,"#N/A") but not working..

I am using a lookup function to return nalues to a column. Some of the values returned are ### and I cannot SUM this column. I either need to adjust the lookup formula to not return ### or adjust the SUM function to ignore ###.

Is there anyway I can change a sumproduct so that ig ignores any errors?
The formula I am using is:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(data!$L$2:$L$7441='Level 2'!$D3),--(data!$P$2:$P$7441='Level 2'!H$1))

How can I get this formula to ignore a zero value and continue looking to the left until it finds a whole number?

I have a small problem. Basically what I need to do is this: I'm setting the initial value of my combobox to say "Select a Payer". The combobox has a list of insurance payers. When one is selected by the user they click a button and on another sheet is displayed thier selection in a Pivot Table. Unfortunately, when the user selects nothing (the combobox stays at "Select a Payer") problems occurr.
What I want is to use if combobox1.value = "Select a Payer" then combobox1.value = {the first actual Payer in the list}. Index number 1 ?

I have a sheet (example attached) I need a formula to recognise only the numeric values either by automatically deleting the words or by entering the numbers in another corresponding sheet, either would do.

Let's say I have a set of values (A1:A10) where each contains a number, with a varied amount of decimal places (some may have 0, some may have 10)...how can I make a formula in cell B1 that averages A1:A10, ignoring the decimal places (rounding to the nearest whole number)
For example, if this was A1:A10
93.11
94
92.12321
95.1
96.7
98.1
99
100.03
88.6677
85.6675
If I did the Average (=AVG(A1:A10)), I would get 94.2498. But I don't want this, I want the formula to take into account the numbers rounded to the nearest whole number, meaning, I want to take the average of..
93
94
92
95
97
98
99
100
89
86
Which would give me a value of 94.3.. In this example, there isn't much of a difference, but I was simplifying the numbers for time sake

The summary page summarises the source data into how much revenue each department has made over 12 months.
However the formula in Summary worksheet column B will only total up the amounts if the month in the Source worksheet column B is the 1st of the month. How do I change the formula in Summary worksheet column B to purely go by month and ignore the day?

I am using the vlookup function to pull in values from another sheet that I will call sheet2. I am using a cell reference for the lookup value on sheet1.
On sheet1, the value in the reference cell has a superscript "1" that corresponds to a footnote at the bottom of the page. The corresponding lookup value on sheet2 does not have any superscript. Is it possible to make the vlookup function ignore the superscript for the purpose of the lookup?

I have several excel spreadsheets cataloging the right ascension transit times of various extrasolar planets. I need to convert all the times (in 24-hour format) from UT to PDT (that is, subtract seven hours). Unfortunately, each transit time is included in the same cell as the date the exoplanet's star is visible, like so:
http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/3998/transit.png
Now, I have a lot of data that I need to convert. I do not want to go through manually and change each cell's value manually. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out a way to use a formula to do so; I do not want to modify the date (the top value of each cell), and the colon separating hours from minutes screws up the rest of the formula.
So, how can I use excel to automatically subtract seven hours from the bottom value of each cell, without doing anything to the rest of the numbers in each cell?

So I highlighted bunch of cells where numbers are stored as text and chose "ignore error". But when I re-sort the list, the errors come right back again.
Is there a way to get them to stick so I don't have to keep choosing ignore error?

I have a row of cells, say, A1 to G1. I wish to sum the values in cells, say, A1, C1, F1 and G1 only. The chosen cells can have values 0, >0 or Blank. How do I sum the values and ignore the blank cell(s) without getting #VALUE!? Filling the blank cells with "0" is not an option.
(Any blank cells may have a value added at a later date).
Edit: I could use multiple 'IF' statements, but this is cumbersome. There must be a simpler way.

I run a macro to open multiple workbooks and run a macro within those workbooks. All worked fine until a message/input box was included in the individual workbook macros [that I cannot change] to notify the single workbook user when the macro had successfully completed and prompts for an “ok” input.
Can I get my macro to ignore this prompt and not wait for an input – I am currently clicking “ok” everytime it comes up on screen. Have searched help and forum but nothing jumps out.

I'd like to concatenate the two columns in the file I've attached as a string of text that I can copy to another sheet. The second column in the file attached will be a vlookup from another sheet. However as shown in the file, I'd like to ignore blank cells and only concatenate if they have data in them.

I have two sheets in my workbook: one holds data (Sheet2), the other processes the data (Sheet1). Sheet2 has temperature data for each hour of every day during the year 1997 - about 9000 rows. Sheet1 averages the temperatures for each day together, and therefore has only 365 rows.
However, some of the data is missing - null values are represented by the value -9999. Sheet1 only averages hourly data if there at least 22 non-null values. If there are fewer than 22 non-null values, a message is written into the cell to indicate such. (See day 119 on Sheet1 in the attached file for an example of this)
I have the formula worked out to this point; however, I'd like to add in one more constraint: if a day has 2 or fewer null values, I still would like to average the data, but omit the null values in the average. (See day 118 on Sheet1 in the attached file for an example of this). My formula so far:

I need to perform the following calculation:
=FTEST($A$2:$A$30,$B$2:$B$30)
The problem is that this statistical test needs to have pairs and sometimes the ranges won't all be filled or paired. For example, column A may have 15 rows while column B may have 20. So in this case I would need to only add A2 through A15 and B2 through B15.
Is there any any that can be done?

I am working on 2 tabs in a workbook.
The first tab has raw data - The second is my summary.
TAB1 -includes
column A = name range column B = Evaluation Result 1 %
column C = Evaluation Result 2 %
column D = Evaluation Result 3 %
column E = Evaluation Result 4 %
TAB 2 on...The remainder of the tabs are summary for each name in column A of Tab1.
each summary tab includes
A3 = name
A7 = Evaluation Results 1
A8 = Evaluation Results 2
A9 = Evaluation Results 3
A10 = Evaluation Results 4
The evaluation results can include any % from 0-100 and can also be blank. I need to count the 0 but ignore the blanks so for example on Evaluation Result 1, Im using
=SUMIF(Tab1!$A:$A,Tab2!$A$3,Tab1!$B:$B)
So I can find the name in the list of names and the % score for the evaluation - however I don't know how to ignore the blank cells. If the cells are blank I would like to see "-". if they are 0% I would like to see the 0%.

I have a graph that references a column which contains a formula. In the instances where this formula produces a zero value or a DIV/0 error, I would like the graph to contain a blank space.
As it is now, the zero or DIV/0 cell graphs as a zero value. I have tried using an IF statement which takes any zero or error and replaces the cell value with "": IF(A5/A6=0,"",A5/A6)
Even though the cell comes up as blank... a zero value still appears on the graph. The only way for me to have the graph ignore that cell is to go into the cell and delete the formula. This is unnacceptable b/c the data is updated daily... I do not want to have to go through my data every day and delete cells.

Is it possible to sort a worksheet and either ignore #N/A error or have it drop to bottom of sort. I'm sorting a table by the highest value in a column bit all of the rows with the #N/A error are shown before the rows I want to see.
