Match Two Cells Composed Of Text In The Same Row
Mar 23, 2009
I have 570 records in one sheet and 330 on the other one. They are the same data and I want to match them but i have been doing so manually because in the one w/ 330 there are missing values, so I have been copying and pasting but takes too long. The 570 is complete, i took it from the census data and the 330 is not.
I want to be able to match them in the same row including missing values so I can use it in ArcGIS
I have tried to match w/ the match function but have not had luck...

I am trying to identify matches for company names I have in columns A and H.
I originally used =IF( $A3<>$H3,"No Match","Match")
The issue is that not all of the company names in column A contain "INC","LLC", "CORP", etc. So, I am not capturing all of the matches.
Example:
Column A: American Eagle Outfitters
Column H: American Eagle Outfitters INC
Is it possible to write a formula with the logic that IF A3 and H3 both contain "American Eagle Outfitter" then "Match" or "No Match"?

I try to understand what the syntax is to create and use an array named constant which would be composed of other constant.
Example :
Constant called AvgZone1 which is =AVERAGE(zone1)
Constant called AvgZone2 which is =AVERAGE(zone2)
and then create a named array constant based on the names : =AvgZone1,AvgZone2
is not working. You cannot for example do a SUM().

I have a spreadsheet that consists of 981 rows and 1152 columns (192 * 6). It is essentially 981 rows by 192 columns rectangles (if we think of it as a range) side by side. What I want to be able to do is cut 981 rows by 192 columns at a time and paste at the bottom of the first rectangle so forth so on.
Essentially currently data sets look like 1 2 3 4 5 6 - I want the cut paste process to move these rectangles to:
1
2
3
4
5
6

How to check for a partial match looking in one cell, A1 for example, and checking to see if the contents of B1 show a partial match (example attached).
I can't use the vlookup because I only want to look at cells specifically, not a table/list. Please also note that the attached example has no formulas.

I think Match has trouble finding a value thats within a cell containing a lot of words.
Heres the example. I'm trying to find the word "Hello world" in cell B1, in Column A.
Column A
1 Lots of Text
2 Text Text. Hello world. text text
3 Text Text
Cell B1
Hello world
Column B2
Match("*"&B1&"*",A:A,0)
When theres only 1 sentence in Cell A2, the function works and returns 2.
However, when Cell A2 contains a few paragraphs the function returns #NA.
I don't necessarily need to use Match, if this is indeed a limitation does anyone of suggestions to work around, other than vlookup?

I'm trying to have a date selector dropdown box added on sheet as where indicated. This will have an option of last 1-10 draws which will trigger from cells a4:a13. Next, I need a submission button put on sheet as where indicated. When pressed it will give results in cells m4:n29.
Now the match part will lookup the source #'s entered from L6:L11, note these source numbers are repeated for match lookup for each date. The match should look for matching numbers derived from cells c4:j13. If a match is found it will then display the colored text as indicated in my sample, if no match is found it will display " No Match " in black text.

I need a macro that can search a sheet for a match and then copy all 7 cells to the right of the match. I have attached an example of the sheet that will serve as the database to search, and a userform example that will be similar to the userfrom that will display the copied cells when a match is found. I plan to copy and paste the 7 cells to a different sheet so that the userform can display the results with the control source property. I do not need a way to add to this database. I know very little about searching a database so.

refer to the attached workbook for reference. I am looking for a function in Sheet1, Column E that will search for the value of Sheet1, Column A within Sheet2, Column A. When a match is found, the function should look across Sheet2, Columns B - V for values of 1. When such values are found, the function should return the associated value from Sheet2, Row 2. There may be multiple values of 1, and as such, the function should separate values with a comma.

I have 10 cells in a column. I have a drop down list in each that is the same in each. If all 10 cells have the same item selected from the drop down list, I want a separate cell to list Yes or No. I've tried a few variations with no luck.

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?

I'm trying to develop a new daily timesheet for my production workers, where non-production items are recorded in 15 minute intervals. The user would put in "Clock in" by the corresponding time, and the same for "Clock out" at the end of the day. Any non-production items will be type in next to their appropriate time. Since clock in and clock out times will vary, I need to set up a formula that searches the array of cells for the day, finds the "Clock in" and "Clock out" values, and counts any blank cells in between them. Basically the blank cells will equal production time, and the result of the Count function will be multiplied by 0.25 to get the hours.
I am having a very difficult time finding a way to set the "Clock in" and "Clock out" cells as the range for the Count function, because it won't always be the same cells. What would be the best way to automatically have excel find the cells containing these values and set them as the range criteria for a Count function?
The formula at the bottom was one of my initial attempts, but it didn't work. I took out the '=' for the screenshot, so that wasn't the problem.

Trying to create a button that, once clicked performs the following task:
Checks whether the text in a cell in the column X2:X40 matches the text in a cell in the Range A2:U14.
If it does, the formatting of the cell in X2:X40 (eg background) must change to match that of the corresponding cell in A2:U14.
Only 1 cell in the range will match 1 cell in the column
For example:
Before click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a clear background
During click:
matches these cells
changes X4 so that it also has a yellow background
After click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a yellow background

This is for Excel 2007,I have two sets of model numbers. One set is the full model numbers of the units we use, and the other is an abbreviated form used to lookup up certificate numbers. I need a way to match these up so I can use one set of search criteria to find out if there is a match. Here is an example of what I need to match with a partial text match:
H,AE35(6,9)36+TD and AE3563636D145C2501AP
H,RE36(6,9)36 and RE36936C145B2505AP
if I could do this with a formula that matches multiple items at the same time (ie; if A & B & C match=true) with the above model number being one of those items (certificate numbers are issued for sets, but the other model numbers are fine).If that's not possible, a one time VBA run to match all of the abbreviations at once would also work. If these items are matched up with a one time VBA, the VBA needs to account for their being more than one match for each abbreviation depending on the size of the unit.
So H,AE35(6,9)36+TD could be matched to:
AE3563636D145C2501AP
AE3563636D175C2501AP
AE3563636D210C2501AP

I've got 2 sheets. Sheet 1 is where I am inputting all the products I'm producing and giving them serial numbers, if I produce the same part twice the name of the part is the same but the serial number changes. It looks something like this...
Sheet 1:
A
B
C
1
Part Produced
Serial Number
[code]....
While Sheet 1 is constantly been filled with the parts being made with their individual serial numbers. Sheet 2 is constantly being filled with the incoming orders, But only the A Column of Sheet 2 is being changed... as an order comes in I simply type into sheet 2 what product the customer is looking for.
The problem I am having is that as I write in that another "handle" for example as been ordered into sheet 2, my normal MATCH forumla is bringing up the same Serial Number "1001" over and over again. Really I'm wanting the "B" column to update to the next available serial number, so for example "1002"
Sheet 2... as it's coming out right now (wrong)...
A
B
1
Part Ordered By Customer
Serial Number
2
Handle
1001
[code]....
The formula will need to go into Sheet 2 'B' Column, and I'd like it to come out looking like this...
A
B
1
Part Ordered By Customer
Serial Number
2
Handle
1001
[code]....

In column 1 are 220,000 words (that's a lot ), every words corresponds to a number between 1 and 13 in column 2. Now i want to recode texts (column 2) using the codes in columns 1 and 2. I could insert all text in one cell, or i could insert each word in one cell. Then I want to calculate the sum of the corresponding values (column 2) of all the words (column 1) for each time they occur in the text (column 3). In other words, i want to recode text to numbers and i want to calculate their sum.

Here is what I have so far:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Red",A9:A56))),B9:B56,L9:L56)/SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Red",A9:A56))),B9:B56)
So in column A is the text string i.e Big Red Chiquita Apple
Column B is the dollar value
Column C is another variable.
If I want to find "Red" and "Apple" ONLY within same cell. What would be my best bet?

Please help me get VLOOKUP to match only part of the text. I have the following situation:
In "sheet1":
___A________________B______C
1__USER3 (12346ar)___0______411 PCS
2__USER2 (45676ad)___0______313 PCS
3__USER5 (456ff)______0______112 PCS
4__USER8 (1246ew)____0______515 PCS
In "sheet2":
___A_________B________C______D
1__USER8____0_________0______=VLOOKUP(A1,'SHEET1'!$A:$C,3,0)*5
In "sheet2" , D1 I'll get #N/A if I do not type the complete name ( USER8 (1246ew) ). Is there a way to ignore this part " (1246ew)" and match only the name of the user?
Also when matching "515 PCS" can it automatically remove the " PCS" part so I can use only the number to make calculations?

I have a long list of categories in the column A (seen below). To this list i want to assign keys that will support with further calculations (in a column B).
An example of such a key would be in the case of the given example "ACTION SPORTS" and "FOOTBALL". The whole list of these "keys" hast 17 elements.
It is evident that i will need some kind of a partial match. The one i have found on the internet, limittin itself just on the first or last number of characters wont work.
Would it be possible to select my "key - list" (all 17 of them). Then excel would asign a key, whenver it would find a partial match, matching the key?
Appendix:
The Data list (Column A):
ACTION SPORTS FTW
ACTION SPORTS FTW
ACTION SPORTS FTW
ACTION SPORTS FTW
ACTION SPORTS FTW

I have about 70K rows of data. This is a pull from a CRM system and one of the columns contains Free text which may or may not contain a reference ID.
So basically, I need to be able to identify which (if any) of the 60 or so Reference ID appears somewhere in the text. It may be at the beginning, somewhere in the middle or at the end.
So i created two formulas:
=ISNUMBER(SEARCH("MEBIG3",$P:$P))
I created 60 or so of these columns, all with a different Reference ID (MEBIG3 being the ID in this instance). I put the Reference ID in the Cell 1 of each of the columns. I then got a True in the cells wherever I matched the Ref ID to in the description field.
I then created another column with this:
=IF(AO4=TRUE,$AO$1,IF(AP4=TRUE,$AP$1,IF(AQ4=TRUE,$AQ$1,IF(AR4=TRUE,$AR$1,IF(AS4=TRUE,$AS$1,
IF(AT4=TRUE,$AT$1,IF(AU4=TRUE,$AU$1,IF($AV$2=TRUE,AV3,IF($AW$2=TRUE,$AW$1,IF(AX4=TRUE,$AX$1,
IF(AY4=TRUE,$AY$1,IF(AZ4=TRUE,$AZ$1,IF(BA4=TRUE,$BA$1,IF(BB4=TRUE,$BB$1,IF(BC4=TRUE,$BC$1,
IF(BD4=TRUE,$BD$1,IF(BE4=TRUE,$BE$1,IF(BF4=TRUE,$BF$1,IF(BG4=TRUE,$BG$1,IF(BH4=TRUE,$BH$1,
[Code] ........
So wherever there was a True, it returned the Cell at the top of the column which has the Ref ID in it. I put a pivot table and it worked, but the problem is that Excel just can't really handle the number of calculations. The file keeps crashing and becoming corrupt (There are 70K rows, times 60 or so columns). Also I have actually run out of columns I can add in the nesting, I really need more.
Any way of doing the whole piece of analysis all in one Cell. So basically it says "If ADM1 appears anywhere in Column P return ADM1, If ADM2 appears anywhere in Column P return ADM2 and so on".

I have a worksheet that has over 5000 rows - what i need is to find all rows that contain " Total - content targeting" in column 3 & add the number on each corresponding row (column 3 from text match). Below is what i have managed to create,
=VLOOKUP("Total - content targeting",'Google Traffic UK'!C7:Q5000,3,FALSE)
However this only finds the first instance on "Total - content targeting". My speadsheet contains several of these which i need to add up.
how i might change my code to allow all instances of Content targeting to add?

consider the following master data
1AB Cat
2HB Dog
3BX Rat
1ABC Tiger
Now I have the following data, which will lookup the master data presented above and return the corresponding animal - For eg.
1AB29489284 CAT
1ABC0395935 Tiger
2HB29492492 Dog
The above CANNOT be done by VLOOKUP, since the class - Tiger, needs to be differentiated from CAT by the 4th letter. How can the above problem be solved???

The second worksheet has three cells with different combinations of the key words and a fourth cell with equipment names. There are nearly one hundred entries in this format.
What I am trying to do is on the third worksheet to display the equipment name for which the three key words from the second worksheet match the user selected key words from the first worksheet.
