Index Or Match Formula: When A Reference Number Is Used - It Popluates Cells From A List
Jun 6, 2006
I am looking for a formula or something - that when a reference number is used - it popluates cells from a list. Attached is a sample spreadsheet - 2 worksheets are being used - 1 is Purchase List and the 2nd is Fax Commitment. When reference no is filled in on the Fax Commitment sheet and it = the same reference no as on the Purchase List - I need it to populate the appropriate fields (in this case I have colour coded)
From the highlighted cells at B17 to B19, while using some kind of lookup or indexing method, I want to count the number of cells in that specific range that's great than zero. This list is just a sample, the list will be much bigger and order may not be the same--that's why I need to lookup the project name.
I'm trying to build an Index-Match formula to retrieve a number from a "data" sheet onto a "summary" sheet. In example spreadsheet, I need to retrieve the stock price on a specific row from "data" sheet, and as an alternative, the most recent price.
I am trying to find a formula that populates a room number based on the number of hours used. I have a chart that is by building but multiple rooms within each.
Where I am having trouble is when there are more than one room with the same number of hours used then sometimes the formula populates the wrong room number.
Attached is my example spreadsheet of my chart. Book1.xlsx
I have shown what I need, what I have tried and a blank space to show where I need it to go.
I'm trying to create a formula in cell f13 of my attached spreadsheet "Sample 1" that will search the 2nd attached spreadsheet "Sample 2" and return the correct serial number based on both the matching PO # (located in cell E10 on Sample Sheet 1 and in Column 5 on Sample Sheet 2) and Product # (cell A13 on my Sample Sheet 1). My current formula is not returning the correct result and I'm not sure why.
I am having a little trouble with multiplying a few formulas. I am looking for a formula that will multiply the last three cells in a row that contain data and subtract 1. Below is an example of the type of data I am working with and the formula I am trying to use but is not working. The formula is for the cell highlighted in red. Every quarter the last three cells being referenced will change.....
I am trying to use a match index formula to retrieve some data from another workbook...I am wondering if I can use a worksheet name as an IF condition, i.e. I want my match index formula to search the entire workbook, and return values for which there is a match, with the IF conditions being a specific code AND worksheet name.
I am currently using the below formula to add values (D6:D225 on sheets Mon, Tue, ...) given the criteria is met in any cells within the two columns across the five sheets (E6:E225 & N6:N225 on sheets Mon, Tue, ...).
When the references to the columns do not randomly change themselves to #REF! it works fine however, it does this often, forcing my to rewrite the formula.
**Why does it do that and is there a way to stop it?
Also, when I do have to rewrite I am forced to do each cell individually to change the number within the quotes. I have tried to use a cell reference there but when I do Excel just gives me a "0" as if there is no data to be retrieved.
I am using Excel 2010 on a company computer with the macros blocked so no VBA.
We know how INDEX/MATCH works, and it's very nice. I attached a COUNTIF to it to count how many times the index finds itself on another table; if it doesn't find itself, then it goes blank. However, this time I need to count how many times it finds a certain string condition in the other table.

The columns that need to be filled are shaded in dark pink.
I have a list of data in columns Q R S and i need to in between each line insert the data from columns D E F underneath and then underneath that the data from G H I
so bascially i have a list at the moment like this

There is 2 sheets in total , 1 i need to inc 1-1 draw as above and the other sheet to be exc the 1-1 draw . I have attached an example of what i am trying to achieve . can offer as i have had this on excelforum.com with over 150 views and no solution
How can I modify the following formula to find the contents of reference cell, for example if the cell reference (G$3) is equal to 9 I want it to use 8 instead.
See attached file, "Rate Sample Index-Match Formula".
I need a formula to return the value at the cross section of two (2) lookup values that match. This formula will be input into column D under, "RATE" on the 1st tab, "TEST FILE".
In the 1st tab, "TEST FILE" there are a series of columns as follows;
A = Service B = From C = To D = Rate
In the 2nd tab, "RATES" there is a series of rates with drivers From (green) & To (blue)
The formula needs to do the following;
1. Lookup the "From" value in column B on tab, "TEST FILE" and match to column B2:B59 on tab, "RATES" both highlighted in green 2. Then Lookup the "To" value in column C on tab, "TEST FILE" and match to row C1:BH1 on tab, "RATES" both highlighted in blue 3. Then return the value at the cross section of the match "From" (point 1 above) & "To" (point 2 above) in range C2:BH59
For Example;
The rate From SYD To CBR = 0.33. I have highlighted this in yellow on both tabs to show where the formula needs to lookup the data to return the answer.
Additionally, if we were to add service as an additional lookup match how would this work?
I use this formula to give me a "name" associated with the largest number in a list. But I can't get it to work when I use it on a win/loss number such as "7-1". It won't read it.
I am creating a spreadsheet which creates a bulk of data from a front sheet.
The question is: Is there a way to automatically copy a fixed formula for 100 cells using one fixed cell reference such as $A$1 and then automatically after 100 cells replace $A$1 with $A$2, after another 100 with $A$3 and so on?
Explanation with Example:
For example, Sheet1 contains the words "Green Tree" in Cell A1 and Sheet2 will then place "Green Tree" into 100 different sentences such as:
Plant a Green Tree Grow a Green Tree today
This would be created with the formula ="Grow a "&'Sheet1'!$A$1& " today"
After 100 different variations using the formula I want to change that formula to reference cell A2 on Sheet1.
I know if I place "Red Tree" in Cell A2 and use the formula ="Grow a "&'Sheet1'!$A$2& " today" I can do this manually using find and replace for the 100 cells, but I want to do this for 100 different variations of Green Tree to create a 10,000 different sentences so I'd need to find and replace 100 times!
I currently have a spreadsheet with two sheets. The first is my reporting sheet and the second is called Stores. I currently am using the following formula in the reporting sheet:
I have a list in which I have to lookup various Groups and find a Name accordingly. I am now using a very simple IF formula but I get blanks too. Refer below for an example. (A and B are data table, D and E are lookup).

I have created a sales pipeline list in a workbook. One of the sheets ("Contacted potentials") has the following setup:
A---------------------B---------------C----------------D Company name--------Location--------Probability--------Total company sales
Rows 1, 2 and 3 have other information. The actual list starts at the 4th row.
In another worksheet ("Overview"), I want to create a list of companies that have agreed on working with us (displayed by a probability of 100%). This should preferably be done in column A. Furthermore, column B should list the total company sales for that specific company. I have tried this myself using INDEX and MATCH formulas, by using the following formula:
Populate my drop down list. I have 2 columns. I want to populate my dropdown list with data from column a that has a specific value in column b. is this possible with out using VBA?
E.g.
Column A / Column B
123 / TEST 126 / TEST 100 / BACON 231 / CHEESE
basically I would like a drop down list that contains the constants from column b. so from the example above it should contain 123 and 126 as options.
I have a list of data that I want to average the number in column B when there is a match in column A
COLUMN A | COLUMN B alpha | 100 beta | 200 gamma | 300 alpha | 400 beta | 500
What I'm looking to do is return the MEAN of values in column B where column A = alpha. Though, I would settle for returning a list of the values that match the criteria. Index/Match combinations don't seem to be helping me because they only return the first match, I'd like to return all matches.
In short, these are timesheets; in a separate sheet i'm using the above formula to find how many hrs were worked on all the other sheets for a given job# within a given date range. (in the above example, i'm only searching in timesheets between 11/15 and 12/31, but I will ultimately change that to include the entire year '12.31.09:01.15.09'). E2 is a referenced job number; B61 is a referenced date.
I'm getting a !VALUE error. Can a 3d reference work inside an INDEX formula?
My array is H42:N72, in H42:H72 I have numbers 15,14,13....0,-1,-2,-3, etc...
In N42:N72 there is a corresponding $ amount that I would like to return based on finding the value which is greater than 4.7 (so, looking to match the $$ amount to the number 5 in column H42:H72)
I've tried using INDEX MATCH but can't figure this out.
Let's say I have a list in worksheet 1. It's in column A, starts in row 1 and goes.
Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Purple
In worksheet 2 I want to list in row 1, starting with column A, which colors have a value next to them. I want the list to match the first worksheet's order. I'm looking for a formula solution.
Example 1 WS 1 Red 3 Orange 4 Yellow 5 Green Blue 1 Purple..........
In Column A, starting in row 8, I have a list of part nos. This list can be any number of rows long.
Further down the sheet, I want to put that same list into a horizontal array. I currently have this formula in the first column. It will, of course, pull the value from the 1st row.
=IF(ISBLANK(A8),"",A8)
However, when I fill across all of my columns, it changes the Cell reference to B8, C8, etc. whereas I need it to change to A9, A10, etc.
Writing a formula that will index the ROW reference as I fill across?
I have a table of sales by month per account. Each account has an associated country, but there may be many duplicates of each country per month.
I want to create a formula which indexes the country field and gives me the country with the highest total sum for a specified date range. I'd like to be able to drag the formula down and have the country with the highest sales, then the second highest, and third highest, and so-on. Column ranges are specified below.

I was thinking of using an array function utilizing index, large, sumif, and match, but I am getting stuck. I'm honestly not sure if what I'm looking for is even possible, but in Excel, everything is possible, so there has to be a way!
