Lookup Formula To Return Multiple Results?
Dec 8, 2013
I am trying to create a workbook where I can log what work I have done in one spreadsheet and allocate an invoice number to it. In a separate spreadsheet within the same workbook I have created an invoice template. When I enter in the invoice number into the invoice template it's not collecting the correct information.
For example, if I want the details for invoice 10 to show in the invoice template, details for invoice 19 appear.
I have used this formula:
=IFERROR(INDEX(ServiceRecord[[Invoice number]:[Date invoice issued]],
SMALL(IF(ServiceRecord[[Invoice number]:[Date invoice issued]]
='Invoice TEMPLATE'!$F$8,ROW(ServiceRecord[Invoice number])),ROW(1:1)),2),"")
I am wanting to add new information as time goes on and also to be able to put in any invoice number into the invoice template to recall information as needed.

I have been using this formula to do lookup and return values
"=INDEX(ResultsColumn,SMALL(INDEX((CriteriaColumn=Criteria)*(ROW(CriteriaColumn)-ROW(FirstCellOfCriteriaColumn)+1),),COUNTIF(CriteriaColumn,"<>"&Criteria)+ROWS(A$1:A1)))"
I'm using this formula in a roster scene to pick up people that call in sick and display their restored job in a different cell. The problem that I am having say for example employee one calls in sick at 2 pm and i assign that job in a corresponding cell to another, then employee 2 calls in sick for the 1pm shift (the call was made after i have already restored employee one a replacement), the formula automatically places the 1 pm in the cell above the 2pm.
Is there a way to stop it from changing the value once a value is entered in a corresponding cell?

What I am try to do is look up the highest (maximum) date in a lookup up that has multiple results.
Please see attachment.
Column in question is 'U' (FinishDate)
Maximum date that I want to recover is in column 'P' (DATE_COM)
LOOKUP VALUE is found in column 'A' (QUOTE_NUM)

i have two sheets, one to display results (Reults tab) & the other tab containing the data (Data tab)
what i am trying to do is some how create a search function and have a forumula which contains a LIKE function that looks up the data table
RANGE = Data!A2:K255
the search needs to lookup the primary column Data!B2:B255 ... if any results are found .. show them on the results tab.. and if multiple results are found, display those as well.. (in either instance, the whole row of information in respect to the results need to be dislayed and hopefully no duplicates are found .. eg, Data!A:K of a hit)
is there a formula that can achieve this? oh, the search is TEXT based and there should be no empty cells within the dataset
after some MASSIVE googling, i have stumbled accross this
B1 = Search box (txt field)
A6 (which will be a hidden column) contains =MATCH($B$1,Data!A2:A255,0). this formula provides the first instance of the result and provides the row number
A7 contains =MATCH($B$1,OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6+1,0,8-(A6+1),1),0)+A6.
this is supposed to look for the next row number which contains a match and provide that row number
and througout my other columns, i have
B6=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,1)
B7=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,2)
B8=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,3)
and so on
2 things i cannot recitify..
1, the match has to be EXACT ... unfortunately i cannot use exact .. needs to be LIKE .. eg, i cant use the search word "boat" as the range of data has "boats"
2, it comes up with multile .. irrelevent results.

I've got an If statement in Excel which features several VLookups - I need the IF statement to return differing results to 2 different cells, is this possible?
In plain English, I'm looking for something like
If(Vlookup(A2, B2:D5, 4, False), C6="y" And D7="ok", "False")
Obviously this is a very crude example

I am using vlookup to return data from a range that could have the same name in column A.
There are 8 columns
Column 1 is Name
Column 2 is Sun
Column 3 is Mon
and so on.
The problem I have is that a name can appear in two places in column1 with relevant information in different columns:
Fred appears twice, on Wed he is on a course the rest of the week he is on leave. I need a C to be returned for Wed & A/l for the rest of the week.

My task is that I have several documents exported in excel. The requirements in them were mapped to another document. The IDs were populated in a certain column but are now no longer needed. I have to convert those old Ids to the current ones. In my example I have populated Sheet one with the lookup table. In column A are the old IDs. In Column B are the new ones they map to. The old ones can map to several which is why there are more than one ID in some of the cells. In column D of Sheet 2 I have populated it with the old Ids. In Column A I'd like to have the lookup return the appropriate maps to the new Ids. For example for the first map in cell A2 it should return:
abc_18
abc_43
abc_6
abc_4
all in one cell.
Vlookup can return the first hit (abc_18 and abc_43 for cell D2), but ignores the other two IDs in cell D2. I was able to work around this combining the find, mid, and vlookup to return all values. The problem with that is that the formula gets monstrously big after just having it return 4. In the actual files it can be up to 30 IDs which would make that formula literally pages long since. I have pretty much no experience with macros, but it seems like the only solution since I have to send this off to various people so they can use it.

After a lot of searching and trying I still didn't get to something that works.
My situation:
sheet1
column A column B
true "abc"
true "bcd"
false "cde"
true "def"
false "efg"
false "fgh"
on sheet2, in cell A1, I would like to get all results from column B that correspond 'TRUE' in that row.
So, in cell A1 on sheet2, i would like to see "abc", "bcd", "def".
VLOOKUP returns only one result, of course. How do I solve this?
I'm not good at VB, so preferably only with formulas!

Worksheet 1: In column A I have a people's initials. In coumn B I have text boxes with miscellaneous text. (The same person could have multiple rows within this sheet.)
e.g.
AAA blue
BBB orange
AAA round
CCC smelly
AAA elongated
Worksheet 2 I want to show:
A2 = initials, B2 = first text box associated with that person, C2 = second text box (different row) associated with that person (if applicable), D2 = third text box (different row) associated with that person (if applicable), etc.
e.g.
AAA blue round elongated
BBB orange
CCC smelly

I have been searching all day about this topic and while there are many "solutions" none of them fits my criteria and I can't figure out how to tailor it.
I am using a very basic data sheet to populate a purchase order. I want to be able to search a style and have all the data (color, units and price) automatically fill in upon entering the style number, I have been using vlookup but this only works if there is one color per style.
I have found different lookup functions that give the value +1 when the data is sorted but it returns the value even if it doens't fit the search criteria, I only want to return the second value if it correlates to the initial lookup

I have some data arranged in columns/rows as follows:
Location Name
--------- ------
United States Sarah Buchannan
United States Walter Smith
France Phil Barney
Italy Anna Wilson
Germany Philip Watson
France Neil Anderson
I want to have some function in my spreadsheet that will neatly present the names of the people at a given location in a separate part of the worksheet
e.g. a display of all people in France would have something like:
France
-------
Phil Barney
Neil Anderson
Ideally I would like to populate cells rows in a different column with the multiple results of the lookup ("persons at a given location") and that change in location for any individual would result in the list of persons at a given location being automatically updated.
Did alot of digging around and managed to construct a UDF that would display the results of the lookup in a single cell - it is however not very readable. But, I found out that a cell based UDF is not allowed to populate other cells other that the one where the function is entered!

I am looking for a formula that would lookup multiple values/result, corresponding to one given value. I have attached a spreadsheet.
Column A and Column B consists of data set.
Column J has the "LOOKUP VALUE"
Column K is where we want the lookup results. We would require the result to be in ascending order which would determine the distribution.

I have this formula below it will return multiple results is it possilbe to modified it that it will return multiple results but ignore duplicates. I would like it to be a stand alone formula no helper cells or helper columns.
=INDEX(B$2:B$15,SMALL(IF(A$2:A$15=E$2,ROW(A$2:A$15)-ROW($A$2)+1),ROW(A1)))

I have a cell that I must remove the first 2 characters "RO" for each value in a column on a sheet called RAW DATA and put into a cell on a sheet called ROSS DATA. Some of the values in that cell have 3 digits after the RO and some have 5 digits. To do that I used
=REPLACE('RAW DATA'!A3,1,2,"")
Then I need to use this new resultant string as the lookup value in a VLOOKUP. The VLOOKUP will be looking at a named range called DAP on a sheet called DAP, in column 5 for an exact match and I need it to return that value to the cell.
I have tried using the indirect to no avail in different ways, and not sure that I fully understand the usage.

I have attached a copy of what I am trying to do. I've been researching vlookup for a while and everything I try doesn't seem to work. I'm also fairly new to Excel, so most of this is my first time trying these formulas.
In the attached test.xls file, I have two sheets created. The first is "Responsibility," and the second is "List." The data in "List" is what I am trying to pull from. As you can see, the people's names are listed more than once as the list goes down. On the "Responsibility" page I have each person's name one time. In the "Extinguisher" column, I'm wanting it to list every number that is found next to the person's name on the "List" sheet. For example:
Column B2 on the "Responsibility" sheet should read as follows:
1,2,3,17,24
Here is the formula I have in these cells:
=VLOOKUP($A2,List!$A$3:$C$38,3,TRUE)

If I type in an age in A1, in A2 I want an age group to appear
the groups are
20-24
25-29
30-34
35-39
40-44
45-49
50-54
55-59
60-65
so far, if I type in an age then it normally enters the group ABOVE what I want
i.e. if I enter “24” then it put the group “25-29”. if I enter “42” it puts “45-49” and so on.
=LOOKUP($A1,{0,16,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55,60},{"<16","20-24","25-29","30-34","35-39","40-44","45-49","50-54","55-59","60+"})

The formula in Col G uses the value in col's B:E. I would like a formula in Col G that will use the 4-digit value in Col F ( same values as Col B:E) and return the same results.

I've spent the last week trying to do the following, with little to no success....and I'm running out of hair to pull out!!
I have a worksheet (let's call it DATA) with the following column headers:
* Site Name
* Year Initiated
* Status
plus a whole bunch of other columns of information.
On a separate worksheet (let's call it RESULTS) I'm trying to create a summary of all the Site Names where the Year Initiated = "2004" and the Status = "Active". There will be multiple occurences where this is true.
I then want to create further results where the year = 2005, 2006, etc., etc. I've been trying to use the INDEX function with variations of MATCH, SMALL, ROW, etc., etc., but so far, no luck.
Advanced Filtering is not an option as I need to do further manipulating of the results on the RESULTS worksheet.

Please see the attached sheets.
Here's the issue:
On sheet "master" I have a list of goals in column A.
Each has been assigned to at least one person. Each person will have their own sheet that will capture the goals assigned to them. As an example, see Al's sheet.
I am trying to get Excel to look for all of the goals assigned to AL on the Master sheet and list them nicely onto AL's sheet without out blank rows. (and for each, respectively on their own sheet). I could do this with Pivot Tables if the data were displayed differently, but I have been told that I have to display the goal assignments as shown.
I could use "x"s instead of their names to mark the assignment and I could combine the "goal-achieved expectations" and "goal #s" columns if it helps. I am not supposed to use filters either.
Note: Of course, a goal or an assignment could change on the master sheet, but the assignment is more likely to change.
how this done for AL, I can go ahead and create the other sheets.

I would like to create a user form that will display the results from a lookup formula. The userform would have 2 textboxes, so from the formula below BZ109 would be textbox1 and CA109 textbox2. Once data is entered in these textboxes you would hit submit to return the results in a message box. What would the code be for the sumbit button?
=VLOOKUP(BZ109, INDIRECT(CA109), 11, 0)

I am trying to track the number of "F"s within a cell and I'm sure that I'm using the formula correctly -
=COUNTIF(I2:I29,"F").
When I use the insert function feature to walk through setting up the function step-by-step - I see the count once I type in the criteria - however, when I hit 'Ok' the count doesn't appear in the cell - the formula appears. I have cut and pasted the entire worksheet into a new spreadsheet, the problem remains.

So i have a spreadsheet that has a list of members and how many events they have attended. That is fine because i achieved this by doing a countif function on their account number. The spreadsheet has to sheets Events Attended TOTAl and List. In the list it has their name account number and what event they attended and what date. What i need is to have a function that will lookup their account number and return what event they attended but they might have been to 4 different events.
I have a total of 5 columns dedicated to Event attended so we can tell it to lookup first event and return result then have an if function in the next column to lookup event and if its returned in previous column move onto the next event attended.

1) I have an invoice form, and need to create a formula that will allow me to calculate a discount IF an item number begins with "C" or "CE".
Example: Item # is in cell F12. (may or may not begin with "C" or "CE")
Item price is in cell J12.
Extended price (qty x price) is in cell K12.
In L12, I need to calculate a discount (from % in fixed cell L9) on the figure in K12 - based on whether or not the Item # in F12 begins with a C or CE.
If it does not begin with C or CE, then L12 needs to equal 100% of K12.
(The 2 parameters I referred to in the title were:
C, followed by a number
CE followed by a number )
2) The biggest part of the dilemma is that the person using this spreadsheet is totally unfamiliar with Excel formulas, spreadsheets in general, and has to send this finished product to a client each week. So I need this to be as simple as possible - which seems to me to be a formula (that can be copied to insert rows, etc. if necessary).
