Matching Cells Query
May 19, 2009
I have 2 worksheets - main and match. In the main I have something like the following:.....
There are 200 entries in the main work sheet. In the match work sheet I have something like:......
I need to be able to flag if the entry in the match work sheet is already in the main worksheet by using the unique keyID. This flag will be in the match worksheet.
I am using the following array formula: {=IF(A3='[main.xls]Main File'!$A$8:$A$16,"y","n")} and was hoping that this would give me a Y in my flag column but this only shows a N. If I just do a straight if statement then I get a yes: =IF(A2='[main.xls]Main File'!$A$29,"y","n")

I keep getting run-time and application defined errors..
Theere are 2 sheets srctestdata and lists
after entering data in the start and end row...the macro reads column 5 in srctestdata character by character. if any of the characters are ," ", commas etc...it ignores it and concantenates the letters are numbers. this is stored in chemNameSrc.
focus then moves to lists sheet.
here th macro reads the list starting at row 12 ending at 211.
stores letters are numbers in chemNamelist
chemNameSrc and chemNameList are compared. If equal then ok. If not, macro goes through the full list on lists sheet. It will color the cell red where there are no hits.
here is the
Option Explicit
Dim startRow, endRow, manhole, i, j, u, v, x, y, k, characters, endRowList As Integer
Dim nameHolder, letterHolder, chemNameSrc, chemNameList, testYear As String
Sub PopulateSheet()
startRow = InputBox("Enter the start row of the data where you would like to enter data?")
endRow = InputBox("Enter the last row of the data where you would the entered data ends?")
manhole = InputBox("Enter the manhole for which you are entering the data?")
testYear = InputBox("Enter the test year for which you are entering the data?")
For i = startRow To endRow
Cells(i, 1) = manhole
Cells(i, 3) = testYear
If Left(Cells(i, 6), 1) = "

I'm using the code below to lock certain cells depending on the value of other cells. The code below deals with one line of my spreadsheet only and as the spreadsheet comprises 38 data entry rows I've repeated this code 38 times in the worksheet module with the appropriate changes to row numbers.
It works, but causes much screen flickering and "thinking". I'm new to vba so no doubt I've made this code too extensive or lengthy or whatever (or just plain wrong).
Can anyone assist with suggestions on how to simplify the code and/or help with code to handle all 38 lines without repeating the routine 38 times?

I am working on a spreadsheet for a shoe company. I have separate columns for the size, model, color, and item number of a shoe. I get everything except for the item number from a written document; I then have to find the item number for the shoe from another excell document called the Master List.
I was hoping there would be a way to have Excell auto-fill the item number for me. For example, if a shoe is a Red, Athens (the shoe model),size 12, its item number (which can be a pain to find) listed in the row of the Master List is aaabbb. So I want to just enter in the size, color and model number, and have Excell find the item number for me, and fill it in.
I have enclosed an example. Sheet 1 is the sheet I would be working on. Sheet 2 is a portion of the Item master list, which is actually 50k lines.

I have an MS Access query that contains a parameter. The parameter is a date field, and I have configured that in the Access query. If I run the query within the MS Access user interface, it prompts me for the paramater value as expected, and runs just fine. However, I want to connect to this query from within Excel as a data source.
I have created a connection to the Access file using ODBC from within Excel. In the MS Query window, I am merely selecting all of the fields resident in the MS Access query, and returning all values. In other words, there is no selection criteria in the MS Query. I have done this many times with Access queries that DO NOT contain a parameter, and everything works fine. However, in this instance, I need to pass a parameter through to MS Access in order for the query to run. At the moment, I get the "Too Few Paramaters...1 expected" error message. This makes sense, because I haven't figured out how to pass the paramater to MS Access.
Is there a way to structure this that does not involve VB code? If so, I'd love to know how. I have tried creating parameters in MS-Query with the same name, but although I get the prompt it doesn't connect with the Access query as the source for the parameter value.
If the solution requires using code, I'm good with VB Code in Excel...is there VB for Excel code that could make this happen?
Failing that, I guess there must be (I've seen a few in my search thus far) Access VB Code that can make this work. I'm very rusty using VB with Access, so this is my least favored solution. However, if this is the only option, keep in mind that I need to pass the paramater ultimately from a user who will initiate the process using Excel.

I'm trying to develop a macro that will run through a list of names and cities and will put the output next to them. Here's how my data is laid out:
First Name
Last Name
City
Bob
Smith
New York
Joe
Blow
Seattle
To the right of each person is where I want the query output to go. I sort of pieced together a macro but I get stuck on the query part - I don't know how to query multiple rows. I thought of just running the query for each row, but that will probably be too labor intensive for the computer running a query each time.

I have a worksheet that pulls data from an ODBC datasource (import, External Data). The datasource is a SQL server 2005 database.
the query's sql is complex enough that it says it cannot be represented graphicly.
part of the WHERE clause fro my query specifies a date range for one of the date fields.
I am wondering if from within the SQL query in Microsoft Query I can reference the value of a cell. that way i coudl have the user enter his date range values in two specific cells.

I am new to Excel macros and programming, and am running into a problem that I can't figure out how to solve. I have read through the forum and tried various examples, but I am still not getting the result I am looking for.
I have a spreadsheet that has a variable number of cells in-between blank rows (the data can be 1 to 6 rows). I need to sum up the rows of two columns and see if they equal 0 or if there is a difference. If there is a difference, I want to make the cell red. The exact problem I am having is I can't make it check the # of rows and run the formula based on that number of rows. I am attaching an example of my raw data followed by an example of what I am looking for as the end result.

Using VBA, I am importing data from Access (Access2007) into Excel. The code that I use works as required but I need to refine it so that I can filter for the records that I need to import. I can import ALL records. I can import selected records by manually changing my SQL query. I would like to reference an array of values or a range of cells so that I do not need to manually change my query every time I want to run it.
[Code].....
This code gets all records for "Jeff" and "Bob" from the Access database. I need to query about 100 names at a time so manually inputting them is going to take forever. How I can make it work?
By using an array:

by using a range of cells:

I have a csv file on another drive on the network that i need to query. I believe that ms query would be the best way. I know that a DSN needs to be setup but this macro will be used by various users who wont know how to do that. thus I would like to create one via VBA every time the task needs to be run.
I haven't a clue how to do this and i need it to be explained to me in general terms with words of one syllable!

if it is possible to concatenate multiple cells that have different font formats? For example; cell A1 is font formatted SYMBOL and contains the letter "D", cell B1 is font formatted ARIEL and contains the word "delta". What I am trying to do is concatenate the two cells while maintaining their font formats.

I am wanting to create a validation rule so when two cells are added the together the answer must be less than or equal to 14:00 - otherwise a message box will appear
So for example if H7+I7 gives an answer of 13:00 in J7, that's OK, but if the answer is 15:00, the error box will appear. I know that data validation doesnt work on a cell that already has a formula so I'm hoping to use K7 for the Validation and then hide the column

I have a table which is 8 columns wide by approximately 1000 (+) rows. I am struggling with the following;
if I type in seven numbers somewhere I need to get returns on a full 8 cell match? (and possible partial, but exact matches to 4+out of 8 numbers) All the numbers in individual cells are no larger than 99 and (in theory) are arranged from left to right in ascending order.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
I don't want to use auto filter as I am just looking for a reference that I am searching the correct number. Does that make sense?

Is it possible to do the following?
Worksheet1!A2 holds a text value
Worksheet1!B2 holds a text value
Worksheet2!D2 holds a text value
Worksheet2!C2 holds a text value
Is it possible to use vlookup to find a match for Worksheet1!B2 in Worksheet2!C2 where the combination of Worksheet1!A2, Worksheet1!B2 is the same as the combination of Worksheet2!D2, Worksheet2!C2?

I am struggling with a macro that I’m trying to create. Basically what it would do is it would start at cell K1 on a sheet called “Database” and look for the value contained in cell K1 in the entire sheet.
It would paste all matches until no more are found into a sheet called “Matches”. Cell K1 would also be moved to this sheet if matches were found against it. It would then move on to the next non-empty cell in column K.
If no matches were found it would move on to the next non-empty cell.

I have a list of unique numbers on sheet 'List'. On another sheet, 'Data', I have a columns of data and column E contains a number which will match a number in the list on sheet 'List'.
What I want to do but don't know how to is loop (i think) through the numbers in 'List' and every row in 'Data' that contains a number is moved so that the data is grouped according to the number. i.e all rows with 78878 will appear beside each other and so on.
Neec code that i could use that will automate this so the user can just press a button and the data is reorganized?

How do I write a nested COUNTIF formula ( assigning a value of 1 for each cell) for a range of cells that does NOT contain "", "OFF", or "REQ OFF" ?
For example:
A row of 20 cells (A1:A20), 5 are blank (""), 3 contain the text "OFF", 4 contain the text "REQ OFF", and the rest contain anything other than the three values just mentioned.
I need a sum number for all the cells in that row that contain any other value. In this example, the output value should be 8. Out of 20 cells in the row, a total of 12 cells had either "", OFF, REQ OFF, and the remaining 8 had some other value that did not equal those.
Some sort of COUNTIF(AND(... Can't seem to figure this one out.

I'm trying to query a query in Access 2003, from Excel 2003.
The query in Access looks like:
AccessQuery: [SELECT VBAFunction(field1) FROM Table]
The query in Excel looks like:
ExcelQuery: [SELECT * FROM AccessQuery]
I use the following VBA code in Excel to excecute the query:
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(cDataSheetName).QueryTables.Add(Connection:=strConnection, _
Destination:=ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(cDataSheetName).Range("A1"), Sql:=strQuery)
.RowNumbers = True
.Refresh BackgroundQuery:=False
iResultRowCount = .ResultRange.Rows.Count
End With
When I execute this code I get the error message 'SQL Syntax Error' (Error 1004). When I remove the VBA function from the query in Access, it all works fine.

I created an Ms Excel Database Query to bring in data from MS Access. (versions 2002 of MS Excel and Ms Access). The query works fine initially. I can right click, choose Edit Query and change my criteria. Results are returned almost instantly.
My problem is that, once I save the workbook, or autosave happens, I get an error when I right-click to Edit Query: This query cannot be edited by the Query Wizard..

I'm currently having a hard time creating a formula to verify if the contents of 2 cells match.
Example from Spreadsheet -
Column C: MATCH / NOT MATCH
Column D, Row 4: MSG
Column E, Row 4: SMSG
When I attempt to create a formula for Column C, it registers the "MSG" within "SMSG" and lists the result as "MATCH".

I want to know if there is any formula to match two numbers which have same digits but are in different style. I have attached a spreadsheet with numbers in column A and Column B. Both columns have the same number just the style is different, is it possible that i get a match based on the digits match and then return the output as correct or wrong?
If all digits match from column A with column B it should show as correct else wrong.

We have a report with 2 different sheets. On sheet one there are 13,000 rows of data and columns A-H are filled with different data. column A is our item id and column G has a date that states when the item was sold last. Well, the date in column G is wrong for about 7800 rows and needs changed.
The second sheet in the file is the 7800 rows with just the item id in column A and the correct date in column B. We are looking for an easy way to replace the rows in the first sheet with the correct information from the rows in the second sheet without manually replacing it line by line.
I almost forgot to add in, that in both sheets, column A with the item ids are the same item ids on both those sheets. So column A on sheet one has 13000 rows and included in those 13000 are the 7800 item ids on sheet 2.
We tried using the VLookup function that is incorporated into excel but had absolutly no luck, mostly because we have never used this function before. Sheet one already has all the lines of sheet 2, its just that sheet one has the wrong dates for the item ids and sheet 2 has the correct dates. im trying to replace the dates on sheet one from the dates on sheet 2 matching on the item ids from both sheets......

I have a sheet containing a list of client name,the date they've been assigned, the type of account they have, the status of the account, and the last update date.
What I'm trying to accomplish is to extract the client name and the type of account on that table that shows as "complete" in status. However, it gets complicated since I need to separate the data that had been 'completed' under the same month, with those completed the other month.
For example, I have been assigned 2 clients this January. I closed one in the same month, and the other closed at February. The first client would be listed under the first table (Completed within the month) and the other would be on the second (Completed on previous months)
Since this would be monthly, I am thinking if it would be more efficient to include the table per sheet (as one sheet corresponds to a month), or consolidate everything to a single sheet... I'm not sure which one would be best.
