I have a worksheet that has a compilation of reports, each of which has multiple columns that aren't necessarily organized in an Excel-friendly way. However, the first column contains a list of "name" headings (titled "Name") and the second adjacent column always lists the actual name right beside it. Similarly, each person has a value heading in the first column (titled "The Value") and the actual value in the second column. What I would like to be able to do is have Excel search for the Name heading, paste the value in the adjacent column (the actual name) in a cell in a new worksheet, then search for "The Value" and do the same thing in the column adjacent to the one where the actual name was copied. The catch is I need Excel to do this and then search again for "Name", skip it, and start again with the first part of the procedure until all names and their associated values are matched. how to do something like this in VBA?
I have a list of names in a column and another list of names in another column. The columns are named patient and user. Is there a way to right a formula that would highlight a name match when a name matched in the two columns in the same row?
I need creating a formula that matches the values between two separate columns with results from that matching in the third and fourth columns.
Example: Column A contains the first set of values and column B contains the second set of values. The result in column C would be all the values that are in both columns A and B and the result in column D are all the values that are not found in both columns A and B.
I have two columns of data, in A and B. Column A has about 500 rows of numbers, while column B only has about 150. All the numbers that are in column B exist in column A.
(Column B is a monthly product production list, while column A is a "master list" of all products that can be produced)
I need someway to match the data in Column B with Column A so they line up.
I was thinking something like this, but don't know how to do it:
"Where value in column A = value in column B, then copy this data into cells D1 and E1" (so the values line up next to each other)
is this possible? Maybe with some advanced filter? Or a macro? It seems kind of silly, but I just need to have the data next to each other without doing it manually.
I have a two different workbooks book 1 and book 2 with some data.
If values of first two columns ( Column A and B) of both workbooks are matching then I want a formula that can return the value of third column (column c) of book 2 in book 1 column c.
example:
Book 1
column A / Column B / Column C
100 / 200 /
Book 2
Column A / Column B / Column C
100 / 200 / 300
now I want a formula that can return in column C of book 1 to display 300.
And the data runs across some 100 rows in both workbooks.
I've got two workbooks, Workbook1 with a list in column a and Workbook2 with a list in column F. I want to compare the cells in these columns and delete the entire row in Workbook2 if there is a match.
see attachment below for easier comprehension of what I need to be done. Note that I have around 20 subjects (2 in example) and about 15000 values per subject (5 per subject shown) Basically, I want matching rows to be aligned (see grey) and non-matching rows to be deleted, throughout the 20 or so subjects.
I'm trying to find a way to check if the first and last name that are the content of cell A are anywhere in cell B and beyond. I've included an example: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=28cpkr9&s=5. In the example A1 must match B1, C1 and C2.
I have 2 reports that I want to merge which are exported from different applications. The problem is that the names appear in a different format and I can't work out how to match them up. The fact that not everyone appears on every report I have solved by using lookup as in the attached workbook. What I need to do is use a formula that will recognise the two different name formats and match them up. i.e. Campion, Ben P. and Ben Campion. See attachment.
In Cell A1 I have a name (John Doe). In cell A2 I want the formula which will be a number total. In Cells A4:A20 I have a list of names with John being in several of them. In Cells J4:J20 I have numbers. There is data in between the name and numbers that I don't need.
So, I want A2 to search A4:A20 and everytime it sees John Doe to add the numbers that are 9 cells over (J4:J20). This is basically to show how many mistakes John has made (total). I tried =Sumproduct((A4:A20=A1), (J4:J20,1,0)). I know I am missing something or not on the right track.
I'm working on a project that has 2 sheets. the 2nd sheet has the raw data and the first sheet will be the sorted data.
To deliver the raw data on sheet 2 to sheet 1, I need the different names on sheet 1 to match to its corrosponding name on sheet 2 then deliver the value in another cell. I don't need the zero values but on some occosions the zeros and numerical values will be switched so i will need a formula that will deliver the numerical value to sheet 1 after it checks which cell contains the numerical value between columns B and C. there will always be a zero and a numerical value in either column B or C for each.
It will look like this. (assume 3 rows A, B and C and each value and name is in its own cell).
writing a macro script. I want to find matching names on two diffferent worksheets. More specifically I need the ability to match if I apply a abbreviation(s) to worksheet one in order to get matches in worksheet two.
e.g Company = Co. or Insurance = Ins
Please see my attached excel document for an example.
I have over 27000 lines so doing this manually will take forever!
Ideally I would like this to be a macro script that I can edit to add as many different abbreviations as required. The attached document will make my task a lot clear.
Unfortunately I don't have any starting code as I am not an excel/visual basic programmer, But i hope somebody will be able to help me out here.
The reason I need to do it this way is because I have been given a file from a partner company that uses different abbreviations to the ones we use in my company. I want to see if the companies in the list I have been given already exist in out company database, therefore we need a suitable matching procedure.
Last Name | First Name | Date | Service Day Smith...........John....................Monday Jones............Alex...................Thursday etc..
This list goes on down for like 50 cells. Anyway, I'd like to make a new list based on Service Day so that I can organize the names under the service day so it should look something like this:
I have an excel sheet which displays the data in the following format: (See image attachment). This is just an example of the way the master list is formatted. The master list has over 18,000 lines. Basically, there's a project name, resource name, and number of hours worked for the project within that work week. I've been trying to figure out a way to create a formula or macro to search all these names and add up the hours of the duplicates.
I need excel to search this list of names and total up all hours for each matching name and place each total value on another sheet. For example, Ken Craver has 8 occurances within the week of 1/21/2007 (from project 1 and 25) and his total hours = 31. So the value 31 should be calculated because all the hours associated with Ken Craver add up to 31. Then excel should scan another sheet which has a list of resource names and once it has found the matching name on the other sheet, it will place the value 31 in the column next to the name.
I'm trying to match stock portfolios of mutual funds with stock indexes to find out how much the portfolios deviates from the indexes (active share).
The deviation is simply calculated as the percentage of the portfolio holdings not included in the index.
The data I have is 10 years of monthly portfolio weightings for 30 mutual funds and 8 indexes, organized with company names in column A and the percentage weight for each company in each month in the adjacent rows (see simplified screenshot). I want to match all companies with all indexes.
Twofold:
1)The mutual fund data comes from one source and index data from another. This means company names are not spelled exactly the same. 2)Within the mutual fund datasets, a company might be listed more than once with different names. The different names refer to different periods in time, so what should be matched with the index is the sum of these columns.
The specific task that I need to accomplish is to match company name in the portfolio with the index and then return the absolute difference between weight in the portfolio and the weight in the index for each month. (see screenshot).
Hence the result I'm looking for is a matrix of company names (of each portfolio) in col A and the absolute difference between the portfolio and the index weight in the adjacent row.
The best solution I've come up with is to device a list of all the portfolio company names, including "doubles", and then for each index, add these company names and copy the row weightings. This I'm not particularly happy with because index weightings would no longer sum to 100 and it would be difficult to check for errors. Also, it would still take a lot of time.
I'm trying to do a countif that matches 2 names and returns the amount of times the 2 name matches is in the list. Ihave first names in column a and the surnames in column B.
How do I create a macro to sort rows into groups, add break rows in between & insert a product sourced from another excel workbook onto the break line?
I receive a spreadsheet each day with a series of requests, most of the information is the addresses & names etc with the important data in columns K,M & O. Data in each of these columns is a code that refers to a product and information sheet to be sent out to the person requesting it. They may want just one in which case data will only be in column K, if they want two there will also be data in M and if they require three there will be data in column O as well. The bit I do know is how to sort the important data into groups of the same by the country (column I) and the product sku's.
Whilst I can do the sort as a recorded macro I really need it to be part of a larger macro that does the following bit I can't get my head around. I need to insert a break row above each group then by cross referencing the data in the product sku columns to a separate workbook insert the appropriate item / letter combination onto the break line row, telling the volunteer which items to send out. This is a v look up?
I have attached an example of the files we work with, the first tab is with the data simply sorted and the second is what I need it to look like. I normally receive it as a CSV file, there are around 8000 possible combinations of product and instructions and the files are normally around 4000 records long. At present we insert the break lines and copy/paste the information manually, seriously slowing down the process.
I need a macro to create a hyperlink i.e....... I have an excel sheet with numbers in column A.....I have files in a folder that matches the numbers in column A....
How would I create a macro to create a hyperlink from the numbers in column A to the "matching" file names in a folder?
I have a cell (A1) that contains text. That text will match a single value in a reference list (i.e. range of cells e.g. Z1:Z26). When the match occurs (e.g. A1 = Z16), I want the format of the reference cell (fill color, text color) to apply to the cell of interest (A1). The reference cells are manually formatted.
I know that I could create a long list of conditional format formulas instead of using the reference, but it seems that there must be some way to tell excel: if the cell value contents are equivalent, the formatting should be as well.
Is it possible to have a formula where it will retrieve a specific value on one sheet based on matching values? Unfortunately, hlookup wont work as there are several values in the table where the 'lookup_value' is the same.
Example:
On sheet 1 (titled BSRC), I have a table which has a list of values in column 1. On column two I have the 'lookup value' which needs to be matched and all values underneath it to be retrieved from sheet 2 (titled CSRD). The 'lookup_value' range is on row 9 of sheet 2.
I have attached a sample spreadsheet for clarification.
i need to match 2 columns on one worksheet with 2 columns on another.
One column is alphanumerical (Reference Numbers), the other is company names.
I need to ensure that both the Reference and Company name match from one sheet, with the company and reference from another.
e.g if A1 and B1 on Wks 1 = A1 and B1 on Wks 2 = TRUE, anything else is FALSE.
There is likely to be Reference number and Comapny name duplicates, therefore the trick is to ensure that the number of duplicates match?(I.E ABC Company, Reference number 1234 may appear 5 times on worksheet 1, however if it is only on Worksheet 2 4 times, then this must be flagged).
i have a very large spreadsheet filled with telephone numberS and some other codes that go with them...i need to match the codes with the phone numbers.
Sub TRCO() Dim TNs As Long Dim i As Long Dim TempArray() As String Dim TRCO As String Dim CD03 As String Dim ASOC As Range TRCO = "TRCO" CD03 = "CD034DF1" 'Filter TN's Columns("B:B").EntireColumn.Insert Set tempRange = Range("A6", Range("A65000").End(xlUp)) With tempRange .

I want to add these numbered steps onto the macro I already have, which I pasted below.
1. Starting in Row 2 in the worksheet named Report 1 look at contents in Column A then look at the contents in Column C, if the contents in Column C do not match exactly the contents in Column A then copy the contents in the range column C:E from that row till the last row in Column C:E.
2. Now we will have a range that is made up of cells from C:E. I would like to move that range down a row at a time, until the first cell in Column C from the range Column C:E matches exactly the contents in Column A. Then I would like to continue this pattern for every row in the worksheet.
