In the attached file I used =MATCH(TRUE,INDEX($B$2:$B$10="",0)) to retrieve the location of the first empty cell.
When using the "Evaluate Formula" tool, it is clear that the position in the array created by the INDEX function is the 6th. Nevertheless, the final outcome is 9, being the last cell in range.
I am having some trouble getting a formula to work. I am building a report that pulls figures from a pivot table in another workbook. I am using a vlookup with match function to get the column index to find the relevant data I want. Where I need to add two columns together I am using sum, with the vlookup & match formulas nested in them e.g.:
=SUM(VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("FAID",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE),VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("COMM",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE),VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("BPCM",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE),VLOOKUP(F13,'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C:$AQ,MATCH("COMD",'[PIVOT 156.xlsx]PIVOT'!$C$6:$AQ$6,0),FALSE))
Where:
F13 = Employee number
Column C on the pivot 156 workbook is where the employee number is based.
The Match formula is then getting the column index from the column headings of the pivot table ie. "FAID"
This in itself works fine, as long as it finds a match in the column headings. This is where i get the error as in the above function "COMD" is not in the pivot table. However I need to keep it included as it may appear on a future pivot table. Is there a way of getting the sum function to complete even though later in the formula it can't complete the vlookup? So it will ignore it, or assume the value is zero if it can't find it? The formula probably needs to do this for all the vlookups as some headings may drop off in future pivot tables.
I have this COUNTIFS expression buried in a larger formula:
COUNTIFS(Table[C7],Table[C7]&"",Table[C21],">=1")
and it always returns a value of zero or some positive integer.
I'm now looking for a little "function" that I can wrap around this expression that will:
A) indicate any non-zero result as 1 or TRUE
and
B) indicate any zero result as 0 or FALSE
Something like...
AREYOUNONZERO( (COUNTIFS(Table[C7],Table[C7]&"",Table[C21],">=1") )
I'm sure there's a fairly efficient way to do this... but I'm totally stumped at the moment!
I'm compiling a list of names on a separate tab from a column that only lists the names sporadically. Problem: In the formula, the IF provides a TRUE, the row function, and consequently, the INDEX function (when I hit F9) provides the correct "name" and row number, but when I hit return, it provides the text 4 cells beneath what it should.
=IF(ROWS(F$5:F5)
I'm using the following formula to calculate the % relative standard deviation of 5 values:
ROUND((STDEV(C8:C12)/AVERAGE(C8:C12)*100),6)
where C8 through C12 are all 3.48.
I was surprised to see the result of 0.000002, and not 0.000000. This formula seems to be accurate to 6 decimal places when using 5 values that are not all the same. When they are the same, I get this small discrepancy in the 6th decimal place. I attempted to troubleshoot by inspecting C8 through C12. The values were typed in as seen above (3.48) and the cell formatting is set to 2 decimals in each of these cells, so the cells themselves shouldn't be contributing to the issue.
I am using the find method to search column headings, and based on the results copy the column to another worksheet. Everything works fine except if I have a mixed text and numeric string in the cell, for example DT35. In this case the macro doesn't copy this column. I have attached the spreadsheet. CTRL - A will run the macro. The macro calls a form with checkboxes, captioned using the values in the worksheet titled "Set-Up". If a value is found in the column heading the checkbox is set to true, then when the "Copy Selected Columns to Final Sheet" button is selected the columns are copied to the "FinalSheet" worksheet. I tried using xlPart instead of xlWhole, and this works but I need to search for exact strings so xlPart isn't a great work around.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIf I create a simple conditional statement in a cell:
=IF(A8="NX-QSNT",B8, "")
I get the expected B8 cell contents when "NX-QSNT" exists in A8, or blank when it doesn't.
If instead of qualifying this full string, I try to Search for the "-QS" string in that cell as the criteria:
=IF(SEARCH("-QS",A8),B8, "")
I get the expected B8 cell contents when "NX-QSNT" exists in A8, but I get "#VALUE!" if it does not find this "-QS" string.
I'm guessing it may be because SEARCH isn't actually returning a TRUE/FALSE response, but rather, a numeric one based on the position of "-QS". I tried using a numeric approach also, but this didn't help:
=IF(SEARCH("-QS",A8) > 0,B8, "")
If a INDEX,MATCH function returns a zero, how do I get it to use the value in the adjacent cell which is a unique number?
=INDEX(Sheet2!A:C,MATCH(A2,Sheet2!A:A,0),3)
Example:
I need some code to search "database" sheet column B:B for value "SearchString" and then either select the cell (0, 86) to the right or count the rows so I can move the the cell in the correct row.

And it works great, except that the data returned is off by one row. For example, the correct value for the sample name in B107 is located in G107, but the formula returns the value in cell G106. I've tried changing the TRUE to FALSE and that returns #N/A.
I have created a table in excel, and it has a very simple sum totals. When i include all cells in the table the total becomes 0. When I exclude a cell in the table, the total shows.

I have a simple formula subtracting one cell from another using =SUM(XX,-XX). When I click on fx and bring up the function arguments box, the formula result is displayed correctly in that box. However, the cell containing the formula will only display a zero. I have tried reformatting the cells to no avail. I have also tried getting a result using =XX-XX and that does not work either.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI have a three or four letter abbreviation of a last name in A1. Column C contains a list of Last Names; column D contains a list of corresponding First Names; and column E contains a formula concantenating the First Names and Last Names from columns C & D.
I have the following formula in B1:
=VLOOKUP(A1,C1:E44,3,1)

I have discovered a strange thing about excel and it is driving me mad and ruining my project.
Basically, If i enter the number 97.4 into cell A1 and then 97.165 into cell B1 and then enter the formula =A1-B1 into cell C1 i get the answer 0.235. Which is correct.
However, when you increase the number of decimal places to 30 the answer that is returned is 0.234999999999999000000000000000.
This calculation result seem to fluctuate wildly depending on the primary numbers in cells a1 and b1. Very rarely have i seen the full 30 decimal places without a bizarre result like this.
Maybe it has been too many years since i was at school and that i am confused with my numbers and that there is a real easy answer to why this result is returned.
As i said it is ruining my project that i am working on. Can anyone help? Why does excel do this? Is there a way to stop this happening? My project relies on this answer to be correct. Is there a way to force excel to stop doing this?
I need a formula to count cells based on the date, so that I can have a blank cell when the answer is 0. I am adding values cumulative and future cells need to be blank because I have a graph that has a trend line and I don't want the trend line to fall off at the end. I also don't want to have to go back to this every month and update it.

In the attached spreadsheet I'm using VLOOKUP to create a cross reference between worksheets JS and ITEM. If you will look at the ITEM worksheet cell reference H13 & H14.

I am working on a Monthly Vehicle Spread Sheet. One of the outputs I am trying to achieve is an automatic calculation of Mile Per Gallon. To do this, I need to know if there is a function that will return the value of the first entry of a group of cells.
In calculating the miles per gallon, I need to subtract the first gallon amount entry of the total gallons in the month, then divide that number into the difference of the mileage in the month recorded when the vehicles fueled up.
