Left Lookup In A Range Instead Of A Column
Aug 24, 2009
Here is my spreadsheet
A B C D 1 Matt 5 4 75 2 Joe 25 23 66 3 Ron 31 33 82 4 Jim 22 45 91 5 Steve 99 100 11
I used the large function to find the top 5 greatest numbers. I have them ranked in another area below the first set of numbers.
100
99
91
82
75
I need to find some sort of formula to return the name for the appropriate number. For example, I need the cell immediately to the right of 100 to return Steve; 99 to say Steve; 91 to say Jim. The INDEX/MATCH formulas used for left lookups works only for a column. I would have to set the index/match formula individually for each column to the right of the top 5 numbers, and that defeats the purpose. I might as well just find the numbers and connect the names all by hand.

here is an example....
(this is on a sheet called Summary)
----A--------B --------C------- D
1Names----At Bats----Hits----Batting Average
2Tom-------38--------31------.816
3Derek------19--------14------.737
4Joey-------40--------28------.700
5Chris-------40--------27------.675
6Chuck------37--------24------.649
Using the LARGE function, Excel has created a list based on batting averages(on a separate sheet called Line-up). It looks like this.....
---A----------B
1Names----Averages
2 -----------.737
3 -----------.700
4 -----------.675
5 -----------.816
6 -----------.649
The problem I am having is figuring a way for Excel to also bring the corresponding names (after using the LARGE function to create the line up list).

I need a cell formula that will (a) identify the highest N values in an above specified column range, (b) color the interior of those N cells (I suspect that this is not possible), and most importantly (c) return the average value of N corresponding cells, where the corresponding cells are located on the same rows as the identified N high value cells but in a specified column to the left (not necessarily adjacent)
Does anybody know what this formula would look like?
Example:
-----------------------
...| A | B | C | D | E | F |
-------------------------
1 |....| * |.........| 7 |...
-------------------------
2 |....................| 2 |...
-------------------------
3 |....| * |.........| 6 |...
-------------------------
4 |....................| 1 |...
-------------------------
5 |....| * |.........| 5 |...
-------------------------
6 |....................| ? |...
-------------------------
? = average of B1,B3,B5 where (N = 3) and (specified column to the left = B)

I am trying to copy "E_CODE" column values corresponding to "Trimmed E_N" from sheet1 to sheet2 "check" column.
to do this, i am using the LOOKUP function to match the text in "sheet2 - CONC" with "sheet1- Trimmed E_N", and if it matches, return the corresponding values from "sheet1 - E_CODE".
not all strings in "sheet2-CONC" exist in "sheet1-Trimmed E_N", so i should be getting "sheet1 - E_CODE" values only for those that exist.
I tried using VLOOKUP but it kept giving me N/A, and i couldn't figure out why even after searching the forums. LOOKUP is giving me values that are greater/lesser than because of its inherent properties and now i am not sure what to do.

I have a sheet that begining in A3 and going down need to look for the First Instance of the text String "Loan Documents" and down to the last instance and select the corresponding range in column B.
Example: if the Text String appears in Range(A14:A32) I need the Range(B14:B32) to be my selected range.

I am trying to use a lookup formula to search for a word in a column, and return the value of the column directly to its left. I know that this cannot be done using the vlookup function, and I am not able to move the columns around. Is there another possibility? In plain English then, I would like cell E2 to look up the value of D2 in column B2:B4 and return the relevant value in column A2:A4.

I have two worksheets. The first one contains 500 rows:
Column A - Company Name
Column J - Formula that calculates a 'company score' based on other data in columns B-H
Column K - Number of directors
The second worksheet contains over 3000 rows:
Column A - Name
Column B - Company
Column C - Designation
I want to caculate a score for each person (from worksheet 2) that does the following:
Personal Score = ('Company Score' / No. of directors) * Designation Weighting
Where Designation Weighting (numerical value) is determined by Designation (text). There are 10 different and mutually exclusive types of text in the Designation column.
My problem is compounded by the fact that each person (in worksheet 2) can be directors on several companies. The Personal Score that I want to calculate needs to recognise which different companies they are directors of and sum the scores derived from each company.

In the attached sheet I am trying to use the formula below but am getting a #NA error. I have narrowed the problem down to the use of the SEARCH and LEFT functions that I am using to determine the lookup value of the VLOOKUP formula.
what I am doing wrong? If I substitute the SEARCH and LEFT function with the number "14" it works just fine. You can find examples of both in cells B29 and C29 on the rename tab.

In the attached spreadsheet you will see the table of data in cells e6:L16. In cell N6 i am doing a hlookup to find the date in the table of data that is closest to the date in cell A4. The formula in cell M6 is where i am having the problem and i was trying to pull in data that is 4 columns to the left of where the hlookup date is in cell N6. The problem i am having is when i input any date higher than 06/30/07 the Index formula does not display the correct date. What is confusing me is that the Hlookup formula in cell N6 still works with higher dates but the index formula does not.

I'm trying to write a formula that searches for the name of the column on one sheet, finds that column on another, then results in the column letter. So, ideally, if the first three columns in the first tab were "Team," "Name," and "Total," respectively, I just want a formula to search for "Name" and give me back "B."
I want to do this in case anybody ever moves the "Name" column, for example, from column B to column C -- so then it would search for "Name" again and change the range in the formula to "C" because that's where that data lives now.
Currently, I'm using it for a COUNTIF() function that is a very simple: =countif(indirect("'"&$A2&"'!K:K"),$B2), where A2 is the sheet name. The latter half of $B2 is fine -- but I would love to have a more complicated formula take the place of the range "B:B" in case the "Name" column ever got moved.

I would like to do a vlookup where the lookup value isn't in the first column of a range/table. Would I use index/match? For example, I have fields for vendor, part # and location in that order. I'd like to pull up location with a formula based on part #.

I have a table (A1:C5)
A1:C1 contain the table headers
A2:C5 contain the data
A6 contains the value I want to search for I use this formula to return the column header of A6 A6=INDEX(A1:C1,SUMPRODUCT((A2:C5=A6)*COLUMN(A2:C5))) Now, if there are duplicate values in A2:C5, this will return more than one column header What I need is a vba code to view a msgbox with all column headers returned in this case

I'm trying to create a macro that can lookup values down a list, find that value within another list and copy the adjacent cells.
The values to look for will always be on the same column and the values to look into will always be in the same range or columns but not always in the same row.
For example.
AI:AI contains a list of ID's which will be manually input every day so they might have a different order.
C:AF has all the data to look into. C always being a list of ID values and I want for every ID found on AI:AI to be search for on C:C: and then once a match is found, I need specific adjancent cell values to be copied next to the ID found on AI.
The values that need to be returned are found on columns B,D,F,G,H,I,J,P,AF and they will always display on those columns.
I've been doing this based on vlookup and INDEX/MATCh formulas but I've come across some limitations for something I want to develop further so I'm trying to do this based on VBA.

I have a table of data (say Column1 to Column 5) with multiple rows.
Column 1 to 4 will have the lookup values in multiple rows and Column 5 data should be picked up using vlookup or other lookup function.
I managed to somehow bring all these lookup values in (Column 1 to 4) in a single column in another sheet. I am now trying to use some lookup or other functions to match this single column and pick column 5 data in original sheet. Result i am expecting is lookup value in first column and next to it column 5 value.
It is basically a lookup wherein lookup value is spread over multiple rows and columns and result column is fixed. I tried using vlookup, but lookup value column and column number had to change every time when i moved from column1 to 4.

i am having one excel spreadsheet where there are data in matrix of 365 rows X n columns. columns are not fixed.(but will always be less than 125). now i want to add blank column after every column through VBA
e.g.
a--b--c--d--e (these are columns)
date--scrip1--scrip2--scrip3--scrip4
now i want data to be rearrange as
a--b--c--d--e--f--g--h--i
date--scrip1--<blank>--scrip2--<blank>--scrip3--<blank>--scrip4--<blank>
means one blank column after every scrip idea is to calculate %return in that new added blank column

I need a formula that will look in an array and return the first non-zero value it finds to the left of the column where the formula is located. For example, in a row with the following values:
$12,000 $- $- $24,000 $- $-
I would like to place a formula below each cell (in the next row) that reviews the row above and returns the first non-zero value to the left of the location of the current cell so that the results look so:
$12,000 $12,000 $12,000 $24,000 $24,000 $24,000

I have the following code, a checkbox and listbox on a sheet
at the moment the list box appears to the right of the column , I
want it to appear to the left of the data entry column.
I have tried theproperties on the list box itself but it just resets,
I reckon this code controls the size,shape,location of the list box.
Option Explicit
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
If CheckBox1 Then
ListBox1.Visible = True
Else
ListBox1.Visible = False
End If
End Sub
Private Sub ListBox1_DblClick(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
Dim Target As Range
Dim MySel As Range
Set Target = Range("VBA_Target")
Set MySel = Intersect(ActiveCell.EntireRow, Target)
MySel.Value = ListBox1.Value
End Sub

I have a spreadsheet with 3 columns. The first column has a list of numbers, the second column has a list of numbers, and the third column has a code, one of which is “IP”
I want to look up IP, when I find it I need to get the number in the column to it’s left, on the same row. Then I need to look up that number in the first column (which will be on a separate row). I then need to change the word in the third column of that row to “Kit”.
Col. A has numbers
Col. B has numbers, some of which are the same as in Col. A, but not in the same row
Col. C has a code, one of which is ‘IP’
I want to look for ‘IP’ in column C. When I find it, I want to get the number corresponding number from Col. B (same row), then look up that number in Col. A. (remember, Col. A and Col. B have some of the same numbers, they are just not in the same row).
When I find that number in Col. A, I want to change the code that is in Col. C, from that same row, to read “Kit”
Example: I find “IP” in Col. C. The coinciding number in Col. B is “4630.0”. I find that number in Col. A (one row down) and need to change the “CP” in Col. C to “Kit”.
Col. A Col. B Col. C
12345.0 46730.0 IP
46730.0 CP – (this needs to be changed to “Kit”)

Trying to grab the value to the left of the max value in a range of cells. Wasn't sure if I needed to use the offset function, I tried the vlookup function but the value i'm searching for is in the 2nd column, not the first. I can't download files at work, so if you could examine the example spreadsheet i uploaded, and then type the formula I should use in the post.

I have a 2010 excel sheet containing 14 columns and 45082 rows in total. I am quite illiterate when it comes to writing macros but I know that what I need can be achieved with a set of codes.
To be more clear, I inserted two tables below. The first one represents the current data structure, and the second one is the way I want my data to look like.
Current data structure looks like
Variable 1
Variable 2
Variable 3
