I need the array portion of a lookup formula to change based on a cell value.
On a worksheet(named "groupings")that groups students according to ability level, I have data validation lists where teachers select the criteria for the group. In cell I5 they choose the period, and in cell L5 they select which assessment to look at.
Cell B8 will either say high low or medium. Then in cell C8 I have this formula: Lookup_Occurence($B$8, ??????, 1,1,2)
Again the array will depend on what is entered in cell I5 and cell L5.
I have attached one of the worksheets the lookup_occurence will be referencing. In this exit card worksheet if cell B10 (the name of the assessment) matches what the teacher chose in cell L5 on the groupings worksheet, then the array formula will be 'Exit Card'!Card1. If cell G10 matches what the teacher chose in cell L5, then the array would be 'Exit Card'!Card2. Where A9:C339 is named Card1 and cell F9:H339 is card2 etc.....
However, it gets even more complicated then that because within Card1 there are 8 periods, and if a teacher chose period 1 in cell I8 on the groupings sheet, then I only need the array to look at the period one data in the card1 array.
Essentially what I am trying to accomplish is create a page where teachers can group students by ability level according to any assessment they choose. On the exit card page the formulas currently equaling # Div/0 will say either high, med, or low depending on how a student performs on that assessment.
I want to be able to send out one “master” workbook with the fourteen ranges, and use a pull-down list (or anything else) so when the user selects a state, the proper lookup range will be used. In the attached abbreviated example, I want the lookups in Column B to refer to the state designated in B2. In this case, the VLOOKUP works correctly, since Colorado zip codes are in the ColZip range.
The people in Idaho or Oregon using this will only be working with their respective zip codes in ranges IdaZip or OreZip, so if they enter their state in B2, I would like the VLOOKUP to look in a different range. My whole idea is to only have one master workbook so I don’t have to create one for each district office. Maybe I’m thinking in a wrong direction altogether.
I have a UDF for a lookup_occurrence formula (thanks to Dave), and I was wondering if it was possible to tweak the range it looks at with if statements.
I have a formula like this =Lookup_Occurence(B13, INDIRECT($N$5), 1,1,5) where N5 says exit card 1.
I need it to only look at a certain rows within exit card 1 depending on the value entered in I5.
If value I5 says Period_1 it will only look in rows 12:46.
If value I5 says Period_2 it will only look in rows 48:82 etc.
I believe I need to modify the xl look part of the code with if statements.
Below is the code. I am wondering if I can replace the xlLook line with nested if statements. If I5="Period_1 then rows 12:46" etc.
Function Lookup_Occurence(To_find, Table_array As Range, _ Look_in_col As Long, Offset_col, Occurrence As Long, _ Optional Case_sensitive As Boolean, Optional Part_cell_match As Boolean)
Dim lLoop As Long Dim rFound As Range Dim xlLook As XlLookAt Dim lOcCheck As Long
I'm trying to define a range of values in two cells M1:M2; lookup that range of values in a three column array (K12:M600) and sum the values in column M12:M600 if they are positive values. I've been trying this formula:
I'm having difficulty finding a way to ask excel to lookup a value based on an array spanning multiple rows and columns. There's a mock example in the attached.
I'm trying to sum a range of data consisting of 12 cells (each range is in a unique row going across adjacent columns). The range of data to be summed is based on a lookup value which is a column header - I want the range to start with this lookup value. In column B of my spreadsheet, I have a 'First Activity number code' going down...In Row 4, I have the same First Activity Codes going across the row (the column headers). In Column U, going down the column I am looking for my formula.
So For example, in row 5 of my spreadsheet, I am looking at 73 as my base code (the value in column B), and I want a range of data summed that lies in the same row where the column headers are 73 - 84 (12 rows) - always starting summing the range with the same number that is in column B. So in row 18, 78 is my base number; so I would want the sum of the numbers in the same row where the column headers are 78-89 ( 12 columns).
I have used the below formula which works in a standard cell, however I would like to have this is a VBA code using the Target.Offset option, however I can not get this to work. There may also be a better way of doing this.
The code is looking to see if the 1st cell (A118) is empty or not, if it is empty do nothing otherwise it then looks up the value in the 2nd cell (B118) and assigs the appropriate name from the range values.
I have a spreadsheet and I’m trying to create several different staffing scenarios Basically what I want is to populate column E with the amount of staffing based on the number of classes in column B. The range that I want to apply is in the green box in the sample. I’m trying to have excel give me the staffing value if the current number in cell B5 is a certain value – so in the example 1 through 4 = .2, 5 through 8 = .4 and 9 through 12 = .6. this site gave me some ideas so I tried V lookup and Index but I seem to be missing something and wonder if it is not combinations of nested functions?
On this is a column of Categories and a Column of sizes. I want to use these in a user form. The user will select their Category from a drop down list and the second drop down list will include only the sizes that appear next to the chosen category So for example in the attachment if the user chose 'AUD' as a category they would get the size choices of, '2x4 insert', '2x4 replica' and 'A4L' in the other drop down menu.
The master list of sizes will have to remain on a worksheet as this is what other operators will amend from time to time.
I have an excel sheet where I would like a user to enter a start date and end date(say Feb 1, 2013 to Feb 28,2013). And these dates will be able to change to whatever month the user wishes to look up in a specific date range(column A has 365+ dates). This post is closely related to [URL]... but I cannot figure out how to get it to work from my case.
So working off the same worksheet, I have the beginning date in AC35 and the end date in AC36 in which the user enters. I would like the dates that fall in this entire month, including the beginning and ending dates to be referenced when looking for the specific day that contains a value I have in S35.
In other words, I have data in columns A through N. The dates are in column A and S35 is a value obtained from using Max(L185:L526) where L185:L185 is manually selected each time I want a different month. I don't want this to be a manual process of scrolling down the spreadsheet to get the next month.
I would like to use VBA to validate the data in an Excel worksheet against either a named range or an array of valid data.
The valid data comes from an accounting system. It is a list of customer numbers. I am using ODBC and SQL to get the data into an array and then into a named range. This is working fine.
I want to validate the customer number column in my source Excel worksheet against either the array or the named range.
There are a variable number of lines in the source data.
I have a VBA procedure which starts at cell A2 and then works down column A until it reaches a blank cell.
I would like to use a VBA formulae which does something like:
IF active cell offset (0,3).Value in (named range or array) Then set cell colour for active cell offset (0,3) = Green Else set cell colour for active cell offset (0,3) = Red End If
Or something like that.
Can this be done using VBA? Or do I need to create a new column in my source data and use VBA to place a VLOOKUP based on a named range into this new column?
Lets say that you have three cells. The contents of the cells are 1, 2, 3. The contents 1 and 2 have the strikethrough and 3 does not.
How can you perform a lookup from within another cell to find the cell whose content does not have the strike through? (This could also be a search based on finding the cell that does not have the red background etc...)
In my sheet I do a vlookup for the value in column A in another worksheet. What I would like to do is depending on a value in column C the vlookup would look in a different worksheet. So if the value of "C1" were "AP" the vlookup would go to, for example, table1.xls/sheet1. Say down the line I wanted to change the value of "C1" or the value of column C in another row was "GNR" the vlookup formula would look to table2.xls/sheet1.
I have a spreadsheet an excerpt of which is as follows:
K L M N 1 Doors Security Vehicle Key 2 TRUE FALSE FALSE FALSE 3 FALSE TRUE TRUE FALSE 4 FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE
Want I want to happen is to return the column header where there for a cell which contains "TRUE" in a blank column. If there isn't a cell with the value "TRUE" then to return "N/A". In the above example in blank column P for Row 2 would be "Doors", Row 3 would be "Security,Vehicle" and Row 4 would be "N/A".
In my actual spreadsheet I have 12 columns (L to W) which have the TRUE or FALSE values.
I know it has something to do with either HLOOKUP, INDEX and MATCH but can't seem to get it right. Any ideas?
I have a 3 column table with 20 rows. The first two columns contain travel expense data. The cells in the third column are blank exept for whichever cell I enter an "x" in. Please let me what formula or worksheet function do I use to calculate the travel expenses based on the data in the first two columns that correspond to the row of the cell with an "x" in the third column?
And I have set up a seperate worksheet (2) as an invoice. What I have been trying to do is when I enter a qty in worksheet (1), worksheet (2) will reconise an entry in the qty colum an copy selected fields/ cells. I can do a "=" or use an "if" statement looking at anything greater than "0". but is there a way I can get the invoice worksheet to ignore any lines with "0". So it will only copy over the information with only qtys for the invoice ?.
I have 2 columns of data (col A is time, col B is a value), in a range A4:B1000 (can be less, but the biggest the range will get is to B1000). Example:
Im looking for a way in VBA to look for a time entered in cell C1 (example 10:38:00), find that in column A, then return the average of values in column B that are offset 271 - 300 rows. This is entered in D1. So in my example, 10:38:00 is in cell A9, return the average of B280:B310.
I have a function that is called upon saving a UserForm. One of the Text Labels contains the ID field that I need to use to do a lookup into the first column of a Named Range and then I need to update the cell in the 4th column of that row.
From my research, I'm assuming it will go something like this:
I have data inputted into cells a-o in rows 1-250. I want to search, lets say row 1, (I do want to search all 250 rows if that info is relevant!) and if cell m is blank then I want to return all the info from row 1 into row 260. If there IS data in cell m then I want to return nothing. Bottom line I want to return all the data in all the rows that contains nothing in cell m.
I'm looking for a formula that I can put in BA2 in a sheet called Data, and copy the formula down the column.
If Data AE2 is blank, Data BA2 should be blank.
If there is a number in AE2, the formula should look for the matching number in another sheet called Index, in Index column G. The matching number can be in any row, but will only appear once in the whole column.
For the row number that has the pair, look in Index column AG and copy the value in that cell to Data BA2.
I have an items list on page 2. On page 1 I want to create a drop down menu in C2 that references the list on page 2. Then when I choose an item, I want the additional information in cells D2 and E2 to come in automatically. The list on page 2 will be expanding daily, and when I expand it I can simply insert a new row so I correctly alphabatize it instead of constantly having to resort it.
With that said.... 1. How do you put in the drop down box that references information on a different sheet?
2. What is the best way to reference the information in my ever expanding situation: Index/Match, Vlookup, Lookup, or something I havent mentioned?
I am trying to hide/unhide columns based on what is return to cell C2 from this lookup (=VLOOKUP(B2,GM!E2:M129,9,FALSE)). It can only return 3,6 or 9
If it returns 3 I want to hide columns I:P If it returns 12 I want to hide columns E:L If it returns 6 I want to hide E:H and M:P
I have been trying to work with this code which I found on this forum but I haven't been able to get it working fully. It only works when C2 is entered rather than calculated and I can't get it working for the M:P part of the third option.
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim Changed As Range Set Changed = Range("C2") If Not Intersect(Target, Changed) Is Nothing Then Range("A:Z").EntireColumn.Hidden = False
I would like to have vlookup formua. And I would like the sheet for the table array section be linked to a cell value. So in my workbook this is my vlookup formula:
=VLOOKUP(B2,sheet1!B2:C8,2,FALSE)
I would like to to be something like =VLOOKUP(B2,(=b3)!B2:C8,2,FALSE). This way I can change the value in B3 and the vlookup formula will look for values in a different sheet as opposed to the one I originally designated in the formula.
Search Column A for a name (using an array if possible). If it finds this name, add a string of text to the AA cell on the same row that it found the name on.
For example,
If in A1 it finds the specified name. It then adds a string of text to AA1.
