Lookups That Retrieve Portions Of Text
Aug 20, 2014
If you look at the workbook I have attached, I have made a mock up of a file that I have to use. Cells A1:F12 are part a "Situation Status" file. My team uses this file to update that status of certain events. It shows the current planned estimated completion date for each event in each area. We are required to strikethrough every time the estimated completion date slides out. In some cases, the dates have move 3 or more times so there are cells with multiple dates with strikethroughs. The current date is always the last date in the text string and does not have a strikethrough.
Cells H1:J17 are part of a matrix that I am making to try and capture only the most current ECDs. I want I3 to show "8/10" instead of "8/1 8/3 8/10."
The Event Status and Event Matrix are part of two separate files that I have. The Event Status file is constantly changing so I can't simply say =RIGHT(B4,4) because I could wind up showing the date of a different situation.
Is there a way to lookup the situation name (i.e. "Situation 1"), the Area number, and the event number and return ONLY the latest ECD (the date without the strikethrouh)?

I have a worksheet in my workbook that contains data for 25 different airfoils, each one in a cell space of 3 columns and 50 rows.
In order to do some analysis on these airfoils, I need to save each 3x50 as separate text file to define input for analysis code.
How can I do this in VB in one macro?

I am trying to see if part of a text string matches part of another text string. Example: In C1:C100, I have names. In C101:C300, I have names that are similar to those in C1:C100, but may include a "The" in front or have "Inc" in the back, or both. Is there a way for me to check if each of the names in C101:C300 match one of those in C1:C100 and then get the matching value from C1:C100?

how I would go about addressing this issue. I am given a directory with individual files in it. Each file has critical information I have to extract from it. So, I want the user to provided this directory to the macro and I want the macro to cycle through each file in this directory (excluding super and sub direcories), open it, retrieve info, and close it

i want to extract a value from a column into another column in excel.
this first column contains text and i want to extract a value that in located between the characters 'FOR' and 'MTHS'.
how do i do that?
the situation is the same for all the rows; the value that i want is just located between these characters.
is there a simpler way other than using the MID functn? because everytime i use it i need to count the no. of characters and its quite difficult to keep up with the numbers.

I have 4,300 cells populated with data. I have sorted the data and now I need to rank the data in 1% increments. For example, the first 1% of data (43 cells) will be ranked #1, the second 1% of data (43 cells) will be ranked #2 etc. How could I automate this process? I was trying to figure something out with the "Rank" command but that doesn't seem to work in this situation.

I have a line chart that tracks daily inventory and daily distribution. The chart also has a static value of Max inventory and Min inventory levels. Is it possible to shade the area between the Min and Max levels on the chart a different color from the rest of the chart. For example the chart has a white background and I would like to shade the area betwen the min a max a light blue across the width of the chart.

I have about 25 workbooks with 180 formulas in them that I would like changed. The formulas are all in the range I10:Q29 and all have the same basic structure:
[Code]....
I would like to remove "filepath1!cell1*filepath1!cell2-" and "filepath1!cell2-" so that only "(filepath2!cell3*filepath2!cell4)/(filepath2!cell4)" remains.
My VBA is pretty weak, but I imagine it should be possible to use something like the VBA equivalent of len() and mid() to isolate the components of the equation to the left of the - in the numerator and denominator, and remove those components (as well as the -) from the formula.

I use all of column A, B, and C, but i only use D1 to H44 other than that. Is it possible to hide everything to the right of Column I and below D44:H44, but leave the scroll area for columns A B C able to scroll to the bottom?

Recently, when trying to copy and paste portions of excel worksheets, I've been getting the message: The picture is too large and will be truncated.
I have copied and pasted this same way for years and the problem has just arisen over the past month. An excel issue or possibly something else and just getting the message with Excel since it's the software I'm using 90% of every day?
My files are stored on a network drive, not my hard drive.

I have set up a formula to sum data from specific columns in multiple sheets in the same file. The simple formula had worked perfectly until I needed the data from the last sheet. In all of the other sheets the data that I need to pull is all in consecutive rows but in the last sheet the data that I need pulled and added is in every 4th row. The sheet looks like this:
All of the columns I've filled in work fine. The ones blank are the ones I am running into issues with. When I drag down the formulas excel pulls the next consecutive rows, which is perfect for the first four sheets I am summing, but for the fifth sheet (I'll ref the Test1 column) I need it to pull 'Wayne 2014'!C6 and then 'Wayne 2014'!C10 in the next row and so forth.
Date
All Test
Test1
Test2
Test3
Test4
$ Amt.
Jan.16
=SUM(C2+D2+E2+F2)
[Code] ........
The first four sheets look like this, which is why they work fine:
Date
All Test
Test1
Test2
Test3
$ Amt.
Jan. 16
=SUM(C2:E2)
[Code] ........
The fifth sheet looks like this: I only want the formulas from the first sheet to pull the data from the dated rows in this sheet.
Date
All Test
Test1
Test2
Test3

Jan. 16
=SUM(C2:E2)
=SUM(C3:C5)

Is there any way in Excel 2010 to get it do what I want? (I am not sure how that one cell became outlined and I do not know how to fix it.)

I need a formula to run down a column DCapture.JPG (starting at 142), when it finds the last entered value it needs to display the corresponding value from column J into cell AA21.
If you see the attached photo, the last entered data in column D would be 1, AA21 would be saying -30 (J205)

How can I conditionally total based on a Lookup?
e.g.
Column A shows the item code.
Column B shows the age of stock items as 1, 2 or 3 (years).
Column C has the cost of the stock items.
I want to total the costs for stock items (column C) according to age, so that the totals at the bottom would look something like:
Total stock value for year 1: $14,537.10
Total stock value for year 2: $7,657.70
Total stock value for year 3: $1,773.00

How could I do a lookup on the following accounts but I want to ignore all the numbers and spaces. For example, in another sheet, I just have ACCRUED PTO and I want to do a vlookup on 601190 601190 5007 ACCRUED PTO.
407200 3044 UPR-STAT SELLER COV F.R.

I'm currently working on a side project for work that I believe will save many man hours as at the moment we're using paper and calculators!!! I'm scheduling buys. I've worked out formulas and formats to show how much we should buy and how they should be split (for example for UK purchases we buy x amount and split it 10% 90%). However, the dates of delivery are different. See below:
PORT L'poolPORT HKPORT Portsmouth
1.113-Aug-1206-Aug-1230-Jul-12
1.210-Sep-1203-Sep-1227-Aug-12
2.103-Sep-1227-Aug-1220-Aug-12
2.201-Oct-1224-Sep-1217-Sep-12
3.124-Sep-1217-Sep-1210-Sep-12
3.222-Oct-1215-Oct-1208-Oct-12
Campaign 1 first buy (1.1) I know that my product is sailing from port HK. Therefore I want it that in the 'delivery date' cell, it returns 6/aug/12 (that's the first lot of 10%, and underneath it returns 3/sep/12) which the remaining 90%...2.2).
However, both the campaign number AND port options are variable (using a data validation drop down list). In effect meaning if I choose campaign 2 instead of campaign one, it'll return the dates 27/aug and 24 sep....if I then change the port to Portsmouth, the dates will be 20 aug and 17 sep.
I've attached a quick view of the schedule I've created. The yellow cells are where I want the dates to be returned.

I'm trying to use a state transition matrix in Excel. I randomly generate a
percentage and want to lookup the value in a corresponding table where this value would fall if we were to sum across the row. For example, the first randomly generated value is 13.5% and we are starting in state 6. Therefore, I want a formula that looks in row 6 (starting state) and determines which column (1-6) has the value 13.5% if you sum the values across (in this case the answer is 5). Then 5 becomes the new starting state and so on. Is there a formula or combination of formulas in Excel that can carry out this complex function?

I have a master table that has a list of Product Names in column A and the associated product rollup names in column B.
Next, I have a data table that has a list of company names, Product Names (the names are all included in the master list of Product Names), Transaction Type (Sale, Cancel) and Value.
Lastly, I have a data summary template that I built where I want to be able to calculate total values based on the data table and the product rollup from the master table.
I would like to build formulas into the summary template where it looks at the Product Name column from the data table and finds the associated Product Rollup from the master table and then sums all the values for Transaction Type Sale and then sums up all the values for Transaction Type Cancel. The end result would be a Sales Value for Product Rollup 1, a Sales Value for Product Rollup 2, a Cancel Value for Product Rollup 1, a Cancel Value for Product Rollup 2, etc.

I have 2 sheets, First is the Master that contains 2 columns (Item Code and Item Name), The second also contains the transactions for item codes and item names.
I can check all the item names that it's entered according its code using Vlookup for every row...My question: Is there an array formula (one formula) to check that all Item names is correct according to its code in Sheet1?

Here what I want to do.
I have 2 columns A and C.
The A column displays the winning teams every week and column C displays the losing teams each week.
our league has 2 divisions. Now during the regular season schedule we go head to head against our own division and against the other division.
What I would like to do is keep track of win loss record against each division and against the others.
So for exampls if the Cardianls win against the Angels the Cardinals would be in column A and the Angels in column C. The Angels are in our division. (So are the Braves, White Sox, A's). And if the Cardinals beat the Yankees, the Cardinals are again in the A column and the Yankees are in the C column. In the other division are Blue Jays, Mets, Red Sox and Cubs. From that I would like to see the result of NL 1-0 and AL 1-0.
Let me know if you need more info.

Sheet 1 has a data entry sheet - with a list of Local Authorities down the left, and criteria against which they are scored along the top. They either score, 1, 2, 0, or 'Unknown.' The order may be changed through sorting.
Sheet 2 is a summary, and I need to count how many 'unknowns' there are for each line.
I can't figure it out. And I am sure it is dead easy. In my defense I have been in bed ill for a week, and my brain isn't firing on all cylinders.

I need a formula that combines sumproduct and vlookup. Basically i have a speadsheet with staff names and hours worked in two columns. I need to lookup the staff names to return their cost rates and multiply it by the hours for each individual. However, there may be 20 members of staff so don't want to have to do a formula for each person.

Garry Adamson ar 23 2 45 12
Charlie Baxter ar 10 0 23 14
Iqtiwar Chaudray ar 0 0 1 2
Hugh* Doulton ar 0 5 12 10
On the left is the player name and then to the right are their scores for the first 4 weeks. Each team that has entered the league has a tab of its own with the 11 players they have selected on. I would like to just have to update the main sheet and then have a look up in the other tabs on an if the player is ion this squad basis... I have attached an example of the whole player list and an example of a team on the 2nd tab.

I have a spreadsheet with a medium-sized data set, and I need to look up values from the large table, and thin the table down to only the relevant values.
To arrive at each unique value, I will have to match 3 input cells to the first 3 cells of the data table, then copy values from across that specific line to the appropriate cells of my smaller table. I really don't need to sum or do any math in this step, its just a copy from the master table to the smaller table, the math will come later.
I think I'm attaching the file (remember-first post) so hopefully it will help with what I'm trying to accomplish. Hopefully this isn't a big deal, but I've been pulling my hair out on this all day and I just can't find a solution anywhere that really matches up to this.

If you look at my attached example. I'd like the date line/columns in Sheet "8002372008" to be populated automatically with data from Sheet "Data".
Is this possible? VLOOKUPs and MATCH are what I was thinking, but I'm not sure how to do it.
I know it could probably be done in VB, but I don't want to have to click on each "800 Number" sheet to update it every time, so that my summary sheets are accurate.

On sheet1 I have a column with multiple names. I need a function that can
look up all those names from column B of sheet2, and then count the occurance
of a value in column H of sheet2. Here's the example:
Sheet1 (note that some rows are blank, and some names may appear >1 time):
Helen Back
Cyndi Lou Who
Cyndi Lou Who
Sam Spade
Sheet2 (names only appear once):
col Bcol H
Cyndi Lou WhoR2
Dan DangerR1
Dou LuvaR3
Hal BrookR2
Helen BackR1
Joe MamaR2
Lou DuvaR2
Mai TaiR2
Roberta FlackR3
Ron PopeilR2
Sam SpadeR2
Will NotR2
Yodan/a
I need a formula that can do lookup sheet1's names in col B of sheet2,
then give me a count of all values "<>R1" in col H. If names are repeated in
sheet1, I do want to include the multiple occurences in my count.

I run a store, and currently we handwrite all of our reciepts - and then implement them into a "Sales Sheet" on Microsoft Excel. From there we can monitor monthly sales and targets - coincide what we are selling, and figure sellthroughs etc etc.
To make life easier I am looking at typing out reciepts in Excel - within the same workbook as the "Sales Sheet". I would save each reciept as a separate sheet, and would like to know if it is possible to somehow copy data from the "Reciept" worksheet to the "Sales Sheet" worksheet??

Some notes on my example file:
The data would get pasted into the first sheet, in the shaded area. It might be exactly those IDs, or others - possibly a longer or shorter list each week.
Sheet 2 has the lookup master lists, or checklists. I can set these up ahead of time, and don't change week to week. The input IDs will be checked against these lists somehow on the Report pages.
Sheet 3 and Sheet 4 are the Report pages.
I want a formula in column A to match the input ID values from Sheet 1 to their appropriate checklist on Sheet 2, and return the ID value on the appropriate Report. If the value matches Checklist 1, it should repoirt on Report 1. If it matches Checklist 2, it should report on Report 2. If the value isn't on the checklist, it shouldn't report, don't report it. If there are ID values on the checklist that don't appear on the input, they also should not report.
On the Report pages, once I have the correct IDs reporting, I can put in other formulas to pull Revenue, Cost, etc. info from elsewhere, VLOOKUP-ed from the IDs. (I know how to do that.)
The key is that in terms of sorting out the correct ID values to the correct reports, I don't want to have to do anything to the Report pages each week (like sorting to get rid of blanks, etc.) - I just want to paste in the Input.
