I am trying to perform a lookup (vlookup) function in a cell in excel and wish to have the range as a variable, so that I can adjust which column the lookup function refers to.
View 4 RepliesI am trying to use lookup function to lookup for data in another table (we call it table A). Unfortunately, whenever the code is not in the table A, Excel will return the data from the previous row.... is there any possible way to prevent this... in another word, if the code does not exist in the table A, I want Excel to return 0 or some other figures.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI need to put a formula which will show me required quantities under a relevant date which is already calculated in an aside table.
In the cell E8 I want it to look up for A8 in the table A35:AR45. Then in that row to find a date which is exactly the same or smaller than E7 and bring up all summed quantities from the table A50:A55 (quantities summed must be in the same column where the relevant date was found and in the row where the requirend part number is).
In the other hand I need to doin the cell H8 to llok up for A8 in the ableA35:AR45. Then in that row to find a date which is exactly the same as in H7 and bring up all summed quantities from the table A50:A55 (quantities summed must be in the same column as the relevant date was found and in the row where the required part number is).
I have a workbook with 2 different types of sheet - 1 containing source data and the others 'collecting' data from the source sheet, depending on what the sheet is for.
For example, the data source contains different pets, their names, ages and their owners.
The other sheets are on a one-per-owner basis.
What I would like to do is use a LOOKUP / MATCH function to lookup the owner name typed in cell A1 of the output sheet and match it with the corresponding owner name(s) on the source sheet. I would then like it to return with each pet and append the results on the sheet accordingly - like below:
John Smith (in cell A1)
Pet - Name - Age
-------------------
Dog - Rover - 3
Goldfish - Tom - 1
Gerbil - Chewit - 4
I simply want to use the indirect function in vlookup formula in cell B2 (sheet11) is the sheet name I want to use for the lookup table.
=vlookup(B1,'[Alan.xls]sheet11'!$A$5:$F$19,4,0)
=vlookup(B1,'[Alan.xls]indirect("&B2&")"'!"$A$5:$F$19,4,0)
But doesn't work.
I have a table of data (say Column1 to Column 5) with multiple rows.
Column 1 to 4 will have the lookup values in multiple rows and Column 5 data should be picked up using vlookup or other lookup function.
I managed to somehow bring all these lookup values in (Column 1 to 4) in a single column in another sheet. I am now trying to use some lookup or other functions to match this single column and pick column 5 data in original sheet. Result i am expecting is lookup value in first column and next to it column 5 value.
It is basically a lookup wherein lookup value is spread over multiple rows and columns and result column is fixed. I tried using vlookup, but lookup value column and column number had to change every time when i moved from column1 to 4.
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 use a vlookup function on some database to lookup some data. However the data that I wanted to lookup is actually on the third row. In my attached sample, I have some data in "source data" worksheet. Another worksheet "Ratio" is where I keep the lookup value. In this sample, I actually wanted to lookup the ratio of 0.7 for Geogetown. And 0.66 for Queenstown. Could the vlookup formula be modified or need some vba code to achieve this?
View 5 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to set up a lookup function with two lookup values? For example, say I have a list of items such as:
1 A 14
1 B 22
2 C 84
4 D 25

I need to place a lookup table in a work book and I'm not sure how to do it.Below is what I specifically need in my workbook.
c. The workbook will need a lookup table that will lookup the tuition, clothing
and entertainment figures depending on the selection of college, and will
ensure that only the colleges on the list are selectable. That is, the
worksheet will not allow the user to enter another college not in the list.
The lookup list must be on a worksheet by itself at the end of the workbook.
I would like to do a vlookup where the lookup value isn't in the first column of a range/table. Would I use index/match? For example, I have fields for vendor, part # and location in that order. I'd like to pull up location with a formula based on part #.

I want to find the value in column D for the value you choose in cell G2

I would like to write a formula to return a value from a column that relates to an array within which my lookup value exists. See the tables below:
ID
V1
V2
V3
105
27
3
149
[Code] .......
The tables above are on different sheets within a workbook. I would like to write a formula that returns the "ID" numbers from column "A" in the first table, based on values in columns B-D in that first table, into column "C" in the second table. For example, in this case, the ID number that corresponds with the value "12491" would be "109", since 12491 corresponds with 109 in the first table.
FYI, the "Value" numbers in the second table are calculated based on their rank (high-low) within the matrix in the first table.
I tried the INDEX-MATCH function, but it doesn't seem to work if I'm trying to find a value within a 2-D array- it only works if I'm looking in a single column.
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 am having trouble with my macro. I have attached excel sheet for reference.
Basically, I want a Macro that Looks up columns B & C of current sheet and matches it with table in the charges tab, and then returns hourly pay in column D.
I have created the macro but it's giving me Run time 1004 error.
Also, my formula is incorrect. Maybe that's why my macro isn't working?

I am trying to find a formula that would pick out a row from a matrix based on the values in the first column and then return to me each of the subsequent values from that row. I can't do a vlookup because there are a lot of blank cells and which columns have data changes. I've attached an example. The text in A1 will change and cells A3:B5 will show the corresponding values from that row along with the column title. I would prefer a formula to type in and leave in cells A3:B5 but if that can't be done VBA is okay too.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a file that I would like to lookup variable row and a variable column. I have tired vlookup and hlookup but these do not work because you have to specify a given column or row versus having that column or row be variable. Is there a way to do this.

Excel offers many ways to use a key to lookup a value (VLookup, Index/Match, DGet, and the rest). What's the fastest way to perform a lookup of a small table of, say, 30 rows of key-value pairs? Theoretically, it would be most efficient to use a branch table (also known as a jump table). See the wikipedia article for branch tables: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_table. Does Excel/VBA have a way to create a branch table for such lookups?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to be able to lookup if anywhere in a cell contains a word from a list of words, and then provides an output.
Column G:
VAT payment
HMRC payment
Pay VAT
I have a table on the side that shows:
Column Y Column Z
VATHMRC
HMRC HMRC
ie. If anything in column G matches one of the words in Column Y, then output the Column Z. I have use a Vlookup that works for the first two, as VAT is the first thing, but dont know how to make it work if the key word is in the middle of the cell.
I'm making my own gradebook (attached) and one of my sheets will list scores for each student in different assignments. I have one sheet which keeps track of all students and all assignments with other info. I would like to program cells in one sheet (the third in the attached file) to lookup a particular student's grade in a particular assignment. I figured trying a LOOKUP with an AND requirement might work but it keeps returning the message "could not find value".
My formula references the student's name and the assignment from the identifying cells so that it is easy to copy and paste. I wondered if it was this which resulted in the error, but doubt it.
I am attempting to do a search on a 2 dimensional table, based on Product Code/Month. Is there a function, addin or a macro that will allow me to do this? All I can come up with is a messy combination of VLOOKUP/HLOOKUP/COLUMN.

This is what I have. Now I want to see, for each day which has the highest value. so it should return BBB for day 1, CCC for day 2, DDD for day 3 and AAA for day 1.The formula I am using:
=lookup(max(B2:B5),B2:B5,A2:A5)
=lookup(max(C2:C5),C2:C5,A2:A5)
=lookup(max(D2:D5),D2:D5,A2:A5)
=lookup(max(E2:E5),E2:E5,A2:A5)
Tell you what, it is giving me correct result for column B,C,D but not for E. The formula for column E should return AAA, but for some reason it is returning DDD.
I just wanted to use lookup function in my code. But I had to re-write my for..next statement 8 times. How can I state it in one single lookup function used in a for..next statement. Here is my code
Sub iteration(r)

Dim j As Integer
Dim x1(4) As Double
Dim arra(8, 2) As Double
Dim arrb(8, 4) As Double
r(1) = Worksheets("sonuc"). Range("j4").Value
r(2) = Worksheets("sonuc").Range("j6").Value
Dim myRange As Range
Set myRange = Worksheets("giderler").Range("b6:b11")
x1(1) = Application.WorksheetFunction.Floor(r(1), 0.5)
x1(2) = Application.WorksheetFunction.Ceiling(r(1), 0.5)
x1(3) = Application.WorksheetFunction.Floor(r(2), 0.5)
x1(4) = Application.WorksheetFunction.Ceiling(r(2), 0.5)

I have a large set of frequency data obtained from experimental testing which is dependant on three variables - a span length (from 0-20 metres), vehicle type (divided into motorbikes, cars & trucks - small, medium & large for each) & speed (20-80 km/hr).
Given a span length, speed & particular vehicle (eg large car), I need a program/formula that calculates the equivalent vehicle type (eg in 'motorbikes' - it would correspond to 'small') based on the frequency data. The equivalent vehicle frequency would be +/- say 0.5 Hz (since one type of vehicle would not have the exact same frequency as another).
I have tried experimenting with 'vlookup' functions but it doesn't seem to yield a solution to this problem.
