Looking For Function To Tell What Column The Highest Date Is In
May 20, 2014
I have a spreadsheet where columns I through V are date fields (stored as text as some have letters after the date). Is there a way that I could write a formula so that Excel returns the column letter of the last cell without a letter at the end of it? So it kind of looks like this:
I J K L M
05/01/2014 05/15/2014 05/30/2014(p) 06/20/2014(p) (null)
What I want in the column with the formula then would be just the letter J. Is this even do-able?

Im just setting up a spreadsheet for structural timber design calculations. One of the requirements for this spreadsheet is to look up a Zx value from a table. Once the Zx value is found it returns a size of timber from another column. I have managed to create the function so that it looks up the Zx value and returns the size. However, if the function cant find the exact Zx value, which will usually be the case. The next lowest Zx value is used. Is there a way i can edit this function so that it returns the next highest Zx value instead of the next lowest. At the moment this is the code i am using.
= LOOKUP(Q92, 'Zxx Table'!E5:E172,'Zxx Table'!C5:C172)
Where Q92 is the value to be looked up. E5:E172 is the column of values to be searched. C5:C172 is the column of values where the result comes from. In addition to this just to further complicate things, can it return say the next 5 highest values? If a lookup function cant be used could you tell me another way that i can achieve this.

Suppose I have a column filled with numbers in fraction. And correspondingly I have a specific name for every 10 numbers. I want to find out which is the maximum among the 10. For this I could use the "MAX" function in excel. Similarly I have to find the maximum among the next 10 numbers. Since I have about 200 such numbers under 20 different names and eight such sheets (10 numbers per name), it becomes difficult to type the formula and select the range everytime. I would like to know if there is any shortcut for getting this highest number among the 10 numbers.
Eg.
Name Value Number
TU 489.662.272
TU 380.450.0379
TU 331.970.0475
TU 309.641.004
TU 300.890.1215
TU 288.840.0501
TU 280.090.022
TU 278.580.0115
TU 270.160.0397

Basically, I have a worksheet that shows test results for 6 separate tests. If an objective is met in a test then it is marked with an "X". If an objective is partially met then it is marked with a "/" and if it is not met then it is marked with a "." . I have now created a combined column where I want to collate whether an objective has been met at all across the 6 tests.
For e.g. if in the range H14:M14 there is an "X" then N14 should show "X". If there is no "X" but there is a "/" then N14 should show "/" and it there are neither values in the range then it will show "." .
I tried

I have a spreadsheet with a data sheet and a second sheet. On the second sheet I want to look up the value from A2 and find the highest date associated with this value in the data sheet.
This will be used to look at a number of projects that have multiple dates, and I want the latest date i.e. the furthest into the future. To add a spanner to the works, some dates are recorded as N/A so I obviously want to ignore these. I have attached an example workbook if anyone has a couple of minutes to take a look.

I am trying to return a TRUE or FALSE based on a date in a cell.
for example:
if cell A1 = 07/11/2009
I want A2 to show TRUE or FALSE if A1 is 14 days or more behind todays date.
I have tried stuff like:
=IF(A1=TODAY()-14,"True","False")
but it just always says false. EDIT: I have just noticed that if I change the date in A1 to exactly 14 days behind todays, it returns TRUE. So, it does work. Do I need to add a GREATER THAN in there?

I am trying to use some vba match function code to return the column number of the matching date. The date will be stored in a date variable.
Every time I run this code I normally get a match error even though the date is in the worksheet and the variable matches that date.

I am trying to capture the date at which my portfolio was at it's highest. I enter the value of my portfolio in H35. F36 is where I am trying to capture the date at which my portfolio was the highest. If a previous date was higher, leave as is.
This presents a problem of a circular reference, but do not know a way around this.
I have the following formula in F36
=IF(H35>G36,(F37),(F36))
In F37 is todays date
G36
=IF(G36<=H35,(H35),(G36))
H35 is value of my portfolio today

I have two sheets:
Sheet one has dates, my prices on each of those days, and the fields h1 h2 h3 h4 (h1 is the closest higher number, h2 is the next closet higher number, etc.) and l1 l2 l3 l4 (l1 is the closest lower number, etc. etc.)
Sheet two has certain dates and prices of a competitor's prices.
What I'm trying to do is two things (see attached):
1) find the four closest higher and four closest lower prices (if available)
2) use only the prices that are on or before the date in question.
I've tried combinations like LARGE and OFFSET and so far it is not getting me anywhere.
Can this be done???

I have a row of numbers (per example below) and I would like to return the column header for the max value and the second highest value, even when the second highest value is the same as the max value.
For example
A B C D E Highest Second Highest
1 2 3 2 3 C E
3 1 3 2 2 A C
The return values are under the highest and second highest column headers?

is there a way to highlight the highest value in a column.
=MAX(A1:A50) will write the highest value in whatever field the formula is written in, but is there a way for the number itself to be highlighted in its given location within the colum.For example, if A 21 contains the highest value in column A, can that cell be highlighted?

I am tying to find a way that I can get the highest value in a column of data depending on a set criteria, I have used the following =MAX(IF($C2:$C$109=$C2,IF(CJ$1=K$1,IF($D2:$D$109=$D2,K$2:K$109,0)))) and it works for the first row, I can drag it across ok, but if I drag it down it just populates the same value as the cell the formula started in even though the IF logical test has changed??
Can you please Help fix or offer alternative.
Also is it possible (say the above worked) to add to the formula so that it returns a value from another cell in the same row that it found the highest value? e.g. =MAX(IF($C2:$C$109=$C2,IF(CJ$1=K$1,IF($D2:$D$109=$D2,K$2:K$109,0)))) say this returned the value and it was found in K52 it would return me the value in B52

I'm trying to return a distinct list of rows that filter based on the latest date and largest quantity for each distinct AccountID and ProductID combination.
I tried some variant of the =max function, but I need two filters.
The purpose of this is to create a data set of all company accounts with the most recent number of products used to upload to a database.
The simplified and original data set is as follows:
AccountID
ProductID
Company
Date

Starting at C6 and running down the C column there is a numerical list of values which have been generated from a PivotTable. I'd like some code that will scan down the C column and copy the highest 10 values in that column and the contents of the cell in the corresponding A column starting at F5 and finishing at F15 (a top ten list).
A sample workbook with desired output is included.

I have a worksheet where columns C, F, I, L, O record scores within a league. Each row records a persons score in that league and there are two rows per person recording their score and their handicap score. So Person A would be on rows 3, 4, Person B on 5, 6 etc. The persons name is recorded in Column B.
What I would like to do is to have a cell(s) elsewhere in the worksheet which show the highest score in that league and display that score and the name of the person who achieved it. This ideally would need to be done for the highest score and the highest handicap score.
For the life of me I can't even begin to work out how to do that or even know if it is possible in Excel.
So to clarify, lets say the highest score is in cell L7 and the highest handicap score was in M3. The cell(s) containing this formula should then show the name in B7 and the score in L7 and below it the name in B3 and the score in M3.

I WANT it to search all of column A for the highest number in the range (which will change daily to a new high number above the highest currently), and return the value in column 4 (column D) that corresponds to that value from column A. This is what I have, but it is not working, it is giving me the number (1) in Cell A800 (which is the lowest valued number in my range. The numbers range in value from 1 to 762 with none repeating (they are sequential). The formula I have is :
=+VLOOKUP(MAX(A76:A2000),A76:I2000,4)

I have a spreadsheet and on sheet 1 it currently has 45791 rows filled with data and it increases each day.
Each row looks like this
A RACECOURSE
B DATE
C RACE DETAILS
D HORSES NAME
E RATING OF THE HORSE
On Sheet 2 I have 3 columns. These are the list of horses that are running on a particular day.
A DATE
B RACECOURSE
C NAME OF RACEHORSE
What I want to do is to be able to list in columns D,E,and F on sheet 2 the last three ratings the horses achieved from sheet 1.
how to acquire the latest rating of the horse by using the following formula.
=IF(ISNUMBER(v(LOOKUP(9.9999999999999E+307,1/SEARCH(C2,Sheet1!$D$3:$D$45790),Sheet1!$E$3:$E$45790))),v(),"")
This works a treat but for the life of me I can't fathom out how to get the formula to pick the latest three ratings and place them on sheet 2.
I am using excel 2003

I’m keeping tabs of some clay pigeon shooting scores. I go to alternate locations each week and normally shoot 100 clays, however sometimes it’s only 50. I’ve used MAX to find the highest score in Column D of a spreadsheet and it did what I required. However I now wish to find the highest number in Column D - but only include rows if Column C = P and column E =100.
Col B Col C Col D Col E Col F
date Location score out of % hit
25/10/2008A6210062
08/11/2008P3510035
22/11/2008A4210042
06/12/2008P6610066
20/12/2008A6010060
03/01/2009P295058
17/01/2009A5110051
31/01/2009P4010040
In other words I want to find the highest score for location P but only if that week it was out of 100 shots. It would return 66. Then I can do the same formula for location A and it would return 62. I can’t see how to do this and have searched the forum to no avail. It doesn’t look like I can just use the MAX anymore and I’ve tried incorporating that into a (nested) IF but unsuccessfully.

I have an array of data with multiple codes stored in text...
I want to set a formula in a cell to look for all instances of specific text in an array. Then compare the value of all of the column headings, which are numbered across the top of the array, which contain a match in that column and return the highest value.
Example: 10x10 array, columns 1,3, and 5 contain "text" somewhere in those columns. Formula would return 5.
