Lookup Column Header Based On Cell Value

Aug 11, 2009

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?

Lookup On Column And Row Header

Feb 9, 2010

I need a formula to lookup and retrieve data from a table of values. Given an EMP-ID in column A of the row that contains the formula and given a column name in row 1 of the column that contains the formula, I need to do a lookup. So, in effect, I am doing a lookup based on two values .. the column header and the row header.

I have attached a small model to illustrate what I need. Cell C-3 in the first worksheet will contain the formula to lookup and retrieve the value in cell C-7 in the second worksheet, based on the values in cell C-1 (column header = “Database Col 2”) and in cell A-3 (row header = “257”) in the first worksheet.

formula goes in B2:J11
Sheet1 is the master with all the data the formula would be pulling from.
column A2:A11 has the names , row B1:S1 has the chore that needs to be done.
B2:S11 has the dates already filled in.

Column References: Get A Cell To Return A Value Depending On Whether Or Not A Cloumn Is Populated

get a cell to return a value depending on whether or not a cloumn is populated
for example. If i Have 3 columns EUR, GBP and CHF and there can (99% of the time) only be one entry in any of the 3 on any given row. How then can i get a 4th column to return the value EUR, GBP or CHF on the same row as an entry. I have a relatively complicate nested IF fromula but i think this is slowing down the worksheet as there are 500 or so rows containing it. Ive attached an example segment

Populating A Cell With A Column Header

May 13, 2013

I have a spreadsheet with a number of columns from a database export, where values in the column are either "TRUE" or "FALSE," Depending on whether or not the box was checked in the database. I am wondering if there is a way to populate a new cell with the text from the column if the value is "TRUE."

For example:

BOY
GIRL
John Doe
TRUE
FALSE

Is there a way that I could have another cell populated (I guess via function or macro) with "BOY," since the option for boy is true?

Return ALL Non-zero Cell VALUE And Corresponding Column Header For All IDs

Oct 31, 2013

I have a table like the following where each ID can have no, 1 or multiple values associated with it:

Table1
ID>>>A>>>B>>>C>>>D
1>>>> >>> >>>10>>>
2>>>> >>> >>> >>>>50
3>>>5>>> >>> >>>>2
4>>> >>> >>> >>>>

I have another table that only lists IDs
Table2
ID
1
2
3
5

I want a VBA code such that if ID is in Table2, VBA looks for the matching ID in Table1 and if the matching ID found, it looks for ALL non-empty cells and if a non-empty cell is found in the row, it returns the value in the cell and the header to give something like this

Table3
ID>Column1>Value1>Column2>Value2
1>>>>c>>>10>>
2>>>>D>>>50>>
3>>>>A>>>5>>>>>>D>>>>>>>2>>>

Change Cell Depending On Column Header

Jul 11, 2007

I have a spreadsheet with names and start / finish dates columns down the left hand side then a row of week commencing dates along the top.

for each name row I would like to change teh fill colour of a cell to green to represent the week in which they started and to red for the week in which they finished. I therefore need to cross reference the start and finish dates for each name with the relevant week commencing dates at the top. Somehow! I presume there is some kind of vlookup type formula that I need to use in conditional formatting, but I am not sure what.

Excel 2010 :: Sort Growing Column Starting Under Header Row At Cell C5

May 7, 2014

find macros to sort fixed ranges but not an entire column with existing header rows from 1 to 4.

Added to that is the need to keep the code compatible with Excel 2003 even though I have Excel 2010 at office (it's a file that needs to be "openable" in both versions so the vb code needs to be in XL 03.

Column currently starts at C5 but goes down to C47, at this point. But it's a growing list. Some of the rows are blank at the bottom, too.
