Locate First Occurrence Of Value In A Column Whose Values Are In Random Order

Dec 12, 2012

This is a re-submission of a question previously submitted because the title for the first submission was so poorly worded.

I have a column that has numerical values in random order. I want to locate the first occurance of a value in that column.

I have unsuccessfully tried an Index-Match function - apparently unsuccessful because the values must be in ascending or descending order?

Using FIND To Locate Second Occurrence Of Character

May 28, 2013

7900 Personnel:7980 PR taxes:7985 Medicare

I can use the FIND function to find the first occurrence of ":" and therefore select everything to the right of it, but how do I locate the second occurrence of ":"?

I want to segregate the 7985 Medicare. What if the data varies, i.e. some rows have one occurrence of ":" and others have two?

7900 Personnel: 7970 Bonus. I always want to segregate the last 4-digit account number and description.

Formula To Locate Second Occurrence With Multiple Conditions Met

Mar 17, 2009

The purpose of the formula is to locate the 2nd occurrence of an entry where criteria in other columns are met (used to determine whether people can qualify for an item based on attendance and another condition).

I am using this formula but I know it needs some adjustments and can't seem to work it out or maybe am going about it completely wrong.

=IF(COUNTIF(D2:D205,D2)>1,AND(T2="Y",U2="Y")*1,0)

I need the formula to indicate the second occurrence of this cell with the criteria that BOTH first & second occurrences have T2="Y" and U2="Y". My formula only indicates the first occurrence and the first occurrence if T2 and U2 meet the conditions.

VLookup Random Numbers - Sort Range In Descending Order And Return Relevant Value From Column

Aug 27, 2012

I have a column (B) of randomly generated numbers 1-14, and am using this formula range to sort in descending order and return the relevant value from column (c).

=VLOOKUP(LARGE(B3:B20,1),B3:C20,2,) to =VLOOKUP(LARGE(B3:B20,14),B3:C20,2,)

Works great, except when a number is duplicated, (E.G. 14,13,13,12,11,10,10,9,8 etc). It then returns the first value from(C) repeated, and not the value from the second and subsequent duplicated reference numbers.

Excel 2007 :: Locate Peak Values In A Column Of Numbers

Nov 8, 2013

In the attached spreadsheet I would like to locate the peak values of the numbers in column "F". I don't know if this is best done with a series of functions or by using a macro.

Column "F" translates to the light blue line on the attached chart. Column "F" (MACD) is the difference between a 12 week exponential moving average (EMA) and a 26 week EMA.

I would like the peak values from column "F" re-stated into column J,K,L or M. Ideally I would like to find the highest peak that occurred in a rolling 12 weak period. So not all peaks would need to be posted. By doing this I would only be identifying longer trends .

I'm using Excel 2007. 25 years experience using Excel and functions. Limited experience with Macros though long ago I used to write C code.

Identifying Consecutive Numbers In Random Order

Jun 9, 2009

formula to identify consecutive numbers in order, but having trouble figuring out how to identify consecutive numbers in random order.

Cell M1,N1,O1,P1, and Q1 each have a number, 1,4,9,3 and 7.

We have 3 and 4 being consecutive number but they are not in order, would like help in a formula to put a 1 on an empty cell S indicating that there is a consecutive number with a 1 if there are no consecutive numbers then it would give a 0.

The current formula only works if the consecutive numbers are in order, 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, etc...

=IF(SUMPRODUCT(--(N1:Q1-M1:P1=1)),1,0)

Creating CheckBoxes With VBA Results In Random Order

Jan 7, 2010

I have some VBA (using Excel 2007) that deletes and re-creates a bunch (20-ish) checkboxes in a spreadsheet. Since i'm using the controls-based checkboxes, Excel defaults them to object names of "CheckBox1, CheckBox2, CheckBox3, etc" as I create them the first time around.

Later on, i clear all checkboxes and implement the SAME checkbox-creating code to re-create all or some of the checkboxes, but Excel doesn't number them in order the second time around! I end up with something like "CheckBox2, CheckBox19, CheckBox3, CheckBox12, etc."

What could be causing my code to create things out of order the second time around? Is there a way to reset Excel's Checkbox-numbering iterator?

The code i'm using to create checkboxes is:


Dim x As Long
Dim BoxCell As String

BoxCell = ""
x = 0
'j gets passed into the sub as a "Long" somewhere between the values of 5 and 35

Re-Order Columns Based On Column Order Of Another Worksheet

Mar 1, 2008

I need a way to re-order an excel worksheets columns based on another worksheet.

Data is extracted from a database into excel however users can configure the columns in the initial system. to how they like This causes problems when the data is copied into an excel spreadsheet I have created as the data copied will not be in the same column order as is required.

How can i reorder the columns without physically having to cut and paste the columns to match?

I have attached a sample spreadsheet.

You will see on the spreadsheet that 'fixed columns' is the order that i require the data however 'variable columns' is not in the same order.

Locate Values That Are Duplicates Then Count Them

Mar 11, 2014

I have a spreadsheet that has the following

I have 30 teams with 15 players each

I have teams in rows and players columns with their ID and then name so B2 would be 444 and B3 would be Johnson and B4 would be 429 and B5 would be Smith

What I want to do is run a formula that counts the duplicate ID's not names and then shows them in a list like below

Duplicate ID, Number of times in worksheet
444 , 23
411 , 21
211 , 15

How I can do this.

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.

Counting Each Occurrence Of Multiple Values

Dec 2, 2008

I'm working on an attendance sheet, and have allocated certain letters for related occurrences. For example, V=Vacation day, S=Sick day, B=Bereavement, etc. Over a two-week period (eg - D19:D32), I want to total the number of times one of these values has been used, and add to work hours. Where an employee will enter 7.5 in D19 to indicate hours worked, they may instead enter a 'V' for a vacation day, and have 7.5 hours still added to their total hours in the pay period. I have a formula that works, but it is so incredibly long that I'm thinking there must be an easier way.

Right now, I'm using the following:
=SUM(D19:D32)+(COUNTIF(D19:D32,"V")*7.5)+(COUNTIF(D19:D32,"Vh")*7.5)+(COUNTIF(D19:D32,"S")*7.5)+(COU NTIF(D19:D32,"Sh")*7.5)+(COUNTIF(D19:D32,"H")*7.5)+(COUNTIF(D19:D32,"B")*7.5)+(COUNTIF(D19:D32,"A")* 7.5)

Locate Column Dynamically And Sumif Within Column

Mar 20, 2012

I have a worksheet (A) similar to the following:

Jan '12, Feb '12, Mar '12 --> Header Row
-5, 10, 2
6, -2, 3
5, -2, -1

I have another worksheet (B) with the same header Row (Jan '12, Feb '12, Mar '12). I need to create formula in cell A2 on worksheet B (right under Jan '12) that dynamically locates the Jan '12 column in worksheet A and then sums the numbers in that column only if they are < 0.

So in cell A2 on worksheet B (under Jan '12) I'd have -5 (only -5 is < 0), in cell B2 on worksheet B (under Feb '12) I'd have -4 (-2 + -2) and in cell C2 on worksheet B (under Mar '12) I'd have -1.

I've tried several variations of sumproduct, sumif, index, etc. with no luck.

Sum Column Total Until Next Occurrence?

Jun 24, 2014

[URL]

Now what I need is a formula similar to the one provided in the above referenced thread; however, I need it to sum the totals of all Children (C) from column BW in the attached excel file, and return the sum values found in BW to the corresponding employee (E), before the next E occurrence, or blank, if the row below the last row containing a C value in row M in blank.

refer to the excel file, specifically the row highlighted in RED, and the explanation to the right of it, for further clarification on what I'm needing the formula to do.

Ultimately, I have a census of employees with rates, and some employees cover their children, and I'm needing a formula that will be able to total up the monthly premium for each employee's covered children, and bring that total up to the same row that the employee's data is located.
