Lookup Column Header Value Based On Matching Table Value
May 16, 2013
I'd like a formula that'll return the column header by matching a lookup value with a table in the second sheet.
eg: sheet 1
Name
Cell
Region
John
111-2222
[Code] .......
The formula should match the name in A2, John, with value from the table in sheet 2 and return the correct region, this case North.

I have a spreadsheet and I was wondering if there is a way to copy from a specific range in say A1:A5 in Sheet1 and paste into Sheet2 where the column matches cell A1 in Sheet1.
I am trying to do this in VBA and I was wondering if there is a way to do this.

I'm trying to calculate a figure in a report tab that reads off the data tab and looks for a specific column based on the header of that column. My explanation is admittedly poor but I've attached a sample file with an outline of what I'm trying to do which I hope makes things clearer.

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 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.

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 have a list of names and the chores they need to do on a certain day. I need a formula that returns the chore the person needs to do when the date is filled in.
Ex: Sheet2 Col:A has names filled in A2:11 , row B1:J1 has dates that you would input.
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.

I have a table which is extracted from a database using 2 tables.
1 Header and 1 details table.
I want to display the latest date in column E.
As Column A,B,C is the header table and column D,E is the details table.
Can this be done in vba or a pivot?

Perhaps I missed something in the basics of Excel as to how a table's column header is formatted.Also, my date format is dd/mm/yyyy
When using a basic formula, such as below, in A1 and Cells A2 and B2 have the dates 1/01/2013 and 2/01/2013, this code works fine.
VB : =If(A2<=Today(),"Yes";"No")
BUT, when you convert those two dates to a table, the formula with post No.
However, if you make another formula as show below, the correct day will come up.
VB : =Text(A2,"dddd")
When auto filling the dates in the row, without a table, the dates increase per day.
When auto filling the dates in the row, with a table, the dates increase per year. (And yes, even when 3+ dates are inserted, highlighting those 3 and then autofill.)
Why does a column header change the format and to what format is it changed to?
Why do some formulas output accurate date based on the date in the column header and others do not?
Why do the dates increase per day without a table and per year with a table?

I am having trouble with getting a value (which is the row and column value) from a set of numbers. I have attached an example table to try and make things clearer.
What I have is a table with a set of Row Headers, and Columns Headers all numeric. e.g Columns headed 1, 2, 3, 4, Rows 30, 40, 50 etc. I want to find the 1st occurrence of a value e.g. 1.0 in the table (by 1st Up mean closest to top left), and then give me the value of the Row and Column Header that corresponds to that.
So for the example attached, I want to get the row Value 200 and Column 6 from finding the 1st occurrence of the number 1. I have tried various combinations of index and Match etc. But I can't get my head around the fact that the position of the 1st no. 1.0 can change, therefore I can't use any releative positions etc.

I have a list of S/N with Pass/Fail result next to it. A specific S/N can appear several times in the list:
SN...Result
-------------
111...FAIL
111...FAIL
111...FAIL
111...PASS
222...PASS
333...FAIL
333...FAIL
When creating a pivot table of SN vs. Result (count) I get:
****|FAIL...PASS
-------------------
111..|...3.....1
222..|..........1
333..|...2
I want to get the FAIL count of SN in which PASS > 0 (First two rows)
BUT I can not figure out how I can filter based on the values of the pivot table itself (rather than the values of the original list). When I try to use 'Result' field as report filter, I can not get it as a Column label (and vice-versa). In this case I get:
I get:
****|PASS
------------
111 | ...1
222 | ...1
Desired:
.......|..FAIL..PASS
-------------------
111 |...3...1
222 |........1
Desired (alternative):
......|..FAIL
-------------
111 |...3
222 |...0

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?

Code:
Private Sub GetColData()
Dim SrchRng As Range
Dim SrchVal As Range
[Code]...
And it is also possible by using Column Number to retrieve the data SrchTxt, which is in a cell in the Row, in which "Roy" is found. This Row in this example is Row 5. Column Number may be anything within the search Range. Column Number is 3 in this example.
In Sheet1 "Poet" is in C1. (SrchTxt)
How to retrieve data of the cell in Row 1 in the column where "Roy" is found?

Cells A3:A500 contain product numbers, e.g. 1001, 1002, 1003 etc.. etc...
Cells G2:N2 are column headers, e.g. North2011, South2011, North2012, South2012 etc... etc...
Cell F2 is a lookup that will return a year, e.g. 2011, 2012, 2013 etc... etc...
Against each product is a "yes" if it was sold in the north or south region for each year. This could be both north and south, one or the other or none at all.
What I would like is a formula in cells E3:E500 that looks at the year in cell F2 and if there is a "yes" in either the North or South for that year to return "yes" otherwise blank.
I am unable to upload a sample document due to firewalls.

I have 2 of column names. Note that their actual column# might change so the macro would have to look for the column name and NOT the column position ...

I'm trying to see if you can look up multi columns for a number and when it finds it return back to one column and return that data?
I am trying to sort out territories for a state I work on; the territories are divided up by zip codes.
i.e.
A B C D
territory 1 12345 54321 11222
territory 2 22222 33333
territory 3 44444 55555
and what I want is to say put a formula in cell B3 on Sheet 1 pointing to cell C3 that has zip code 33333. I want it to then take that and look in Sheet 2 and search A1:D3 and when it finds 33333, return "territory 2" back to cell B3 on Sheet 1.

I'm trying to copy cells from a column in one workbook to cells in a column in another workbook based on what's in a header column.
Such as
Original workbook
Mat Qty
A 1
C 3
D 2
E 4
G 5
Total 15
Target workbook becomes
Mat Qty -> Mat Qty
A -> A 1
B -> B
C -> C 3
D -> D 2
E -> E 4
F -> F
G -> G 5
My code so far (which might not be worth reading) is:
Code:
Sub CopyColumnToWorkbook()
Dim sourceColumn As Range, targetColumn As Range, sourceColumnValue As Range, targetColumnValue As Range
Dim mySourceCell As Range, myTargetCell As Range
[code].....
I'm getting a runtime error ('1004'. Application-defined or object-defined error) on the Copy statement within the If sttement.

I have to use several dozen pivot tables a day. I already use a couple of macros to do a lot of the tedious formatting, but if I could automate this it would save me a lot more time. I have been trying to both write a code and modify code written by the recorder but have not even come close to anything that works. What I want is to have a macro that searches through the column header for predefined names and if it comes across one of these names it will insert a specific formula, based on its name, in the first cell below the header. Then it will autofill to the last row and move on to searching for the next predefined header name. If that name is not found, it will move to the next predefined header name. One major problem is that the formula to insert under any specific header name is based on other columns in the table that aren't always in the same range. So, not only do I need it to search for columns to place a formula in, that formula has to search for the appropriate column to find the correct value to use in the calculation.
For example, one predefined column name would be Avg Price. The formula for that column would be (Sales/Qty Sold), but these 2 columns could be located anwhere in the table. How can I get it, once it has found a column that needs a formula, to locate the correct column/cell to get the correct value from the sales and Qty Sold columns?

For what I'd like to do, the attached workbook actually represents 2 or more workbooks. The 'Project-PO Report' tab is a sample of what will be several workbooks/reports that will be generated from the data in 'POTASK'.
The 'CMD_BUTTON' tab represents how I plan to use a command button " IMPORT DATA" to import the data into this workbook, then use "RUN PROJECT-PO-REPORT" to call the MACRO to achieve my objective,as stated below. (Originally,this workbook was about 8mb, so to get this under the size for attachment, I just copied the bare minimum of what I believe would be needed to assist me, and so there's no buttons or macros or dynamic name ranges, as there will be...)

I'm trying to use VBA code to delete certain rows based on a couple of criteria as follows:
1) If column header is "TERMINAL NAME" and the cell value in that column is "BONDDESK", I need the entire row deleted.
2) Similiarly, if the column header is "PRODUCT TYPE" and the cell value in that column is "CORP", that entire row needs deleted as well.
The information is coming from another source, so the columns may change from day to day, i.e, "TERMINAL NAME" may be in Column L one day but in Column O another day.....

I have this data source file that comes from a back office program, and basically what i want it to do is to turn the number negative in column C when the header of that column in column A is WITHDR and leave it positive when it is CONTR. What i was thinking was that it could go to column A from column C and go up each cell until the cell is not a date and multiply the column C number by -1 depending the column A header equals WITHDR and do that for every cell in column C, but I dont know how to proceed, im new at VBA.

I am trying to figure out a way to condense my code (improve my code) Right now I am using a Macro in Excel to go through a workbook by selecting each column individually and if there is something in the header then formatting that column as text. The problem with the way I am currently doing it, is that due to size limitations on the VBA code, I can only select columns A to Z, and if there is more data in the worksheet it is not formatted. Also I would like the code to check the header and if the word date is in there, format it as a date instead. Also if there is a way to delete any invalid ranges in the workbook
Sub Format()
Dim VarFileName As String
Dim VarPath As String
Dim VarSavein As String
Dim wsheet As Worksheet
VarSavein = Sheets("sheet1").Range("C2").Value
VarFileName = Sheets("sheet1").Range("A2").Value
VarPath = Sheets("sheet1").Range("B2").Value
Workbooks.Open VarPath & VarFileName
For Each wsheet In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
Sheets(wsheet.Name).Select
Columns("A:A").Select
Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("A1"), DataType:=xlDelimited, _
TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, Tab:=True, _
Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=False, FieldInfo _
:= Array(1, 2), TrailingMinusNumbers:=True..........................................
