Matching Closest Name From Column
Dec 15, 2013
I have 2 lists. One list consists of the names of agencies as they would appear in our company's data base. The other list is the official business names. I would like match our company list with the official business name list by matching at least 2 words from the name with a name that shows up in column C (Official agency name).
If possible, I would like to ignore preposition and article words since they are used often in agency names.
I am looking for a formula to do this

I've got a table of different values in column A.
I'd like the cell D2 ("order") to show up at column B next to the closest value of 35.00 of column A.
Consequently, how to make "order" meet the closest several value of 35.00?
I've attached a xlxs file with more detailed description.

I'm looking for a function or formula in Excel that will find a number in a
range of numbers that is closest to a specified number. Example: I have a
column of 7 cells that contain cummulative percentages from 0 - 100. It will
always be theses same cells, but will have varying percent values depending
on other calculations. I need to find the first number that's closest to and
below 10. I also need to find the first number that's closest to and above
10. I need this for 3 other values (40, 50, & 90)as well, but if I can get
an example of a formula, I could probably go from there.

I have a spreadsheet with two sheets, 'Sheet0' & 'Sheet1'. In 'Sheet0' I have a column named 'A_Sheet0' containing a list of numbers from Rows 2 - 50. In 'Sheet1' I have 3 columns, the first containing numbers 1 to 50, the second, 'B_Sheet1' containing a list of ascending numbers and the third is the column of interest. This column entitled 'Nearest Value' must read the corresponding value of Column 'B_Sheet1' then find the closest number to that from the numbers in 'Sheet0', column 'S_Sheet0'.
I have included a sample file with this thread, and in the 'Nearest Value' column I have manually input some of the nearest values for your information.

i have 2 columns of data.
Column A is state
Column B is money owed to that state
So lets say
A1 is florida and B1 is 29,000
I am trying for column C to tell me what values (and if possible the cooresponding state) are the 2 closest values above it and the 2 closest values below it in B1:B50. It can appear as a string of text like 27,000 CA 28944 (OR) 31000 (FL) 31200 (GA)

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 am trying to use a nested INDEX and MATCH array formula to return the value in column C when matching column A and column B, but with a few more criteria.
The range containing all the data
A
B
C
1
Cat 1
January 1, 2014
John
[Code] ..........
I am looking for the array formula to return the name of the person in column C who is in Cat 1 after the date in column B.
For example;
C7 should return "John" because B7 requests "January 15, 2014", which is after the value in B1
C8 should return "John" because B8 requests "February 15, 2014", which is after the value in B1
C9 should return "Andrew" because B9 requests "August 15, 2014", which is after the value in B4
The best try I had for the formula in C7 was
{(INDEX($A$1:$C$4,MATCH(1,($B$1:$B$4>=B7)*(A$1:$A$4=A7),0),3))}
This brings back "John" as desired in C7, but when copying down the table into C8 and C9 both C8 and C9 return Andrew.
I guess this is due to my ">=" condition in the Match formula and it is returning "Andrew" because "Andrew" is also after the date requested, but I cannot for the life of me work out how to get it to work.

I have a problem with excel matching fields. I have a list of cities in column A, a list of state in column B, and then on worksheet 2 i have another list of cities in column A and states in column B. I then have dates in column C on the second worksheet.
The problem is that the list on worksheet 2 do not repeat the names of cities and states but on worksheet one there can be repeats.
I wanted to know if there was a command so that if Column A and Column B on worksheet 1 matched Column A and Column B on worksheet 2 then excel will copy the date in column C on worksheet 2 and paste it onto column C on worksheet 1.

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".

In the attached example I paste in a report from another system into Sheet2 (rough data layout in example).
In column B in Sheet1 I have tried using Match and Index formulas to try and return only the Local Shipment figures from on Sheet2 for each staff member.
The issue i'm having is that the data in Sheet2 can change based on how long the report is run. There is also no way I can change the way the raw data is set out in Sheet2 as it's an external system.
Basically i'm looking for a formula that isn't locked down to certain cells and can work with data moving up and down columns at different stages. The key data never changes from column A and F in sheet2. But what does change is whether each person has one or both of Sales & Local Shipment data in the reporting. This obviously changes based on what is completed each day.
So I need a formula that matches the persons name in column A in Sheet1 with Column A in Sheet2, then looks for the first mention of 'Local Shipment' below it and returns the cloumn F value which is in the same row as 'Local Shipment'.

I've been struggling with dependencies, so I have two sheets.. the first sheet contains a simple table:
EmployeeUsernameStatusStatus Note
Alex
Josh
Sarah
David
This is the second table:
Employee Username ActivePassword Change Days Since Change
Alex al2 Y Y 20
Alex alex Y Y 11
Alex aa2 N N 0
Josh josh2 Y Y 10
Sarah ssarah N N 0
Sarah sarah Y Y 1
David David Y Y 4
The problem is in the first table as I don't know how to populate the "Status Note" column which depends on these two columns The column Username which is a dependent list from table 2 that contains the username associated with each employee selection The column Status which is a dropdown list that contains (Active, Password Change, and Days Since Change)
For example if the following is selected for user Alex: al2 and Active how can I make Excel display Y in the status note column
EmployeeEmployee UsernameStatusStatus Note
Alex al2 Active Y
Josh

I've been trying to find this on the web but haven't a clue now, I have a database query that I am pulling from an access database and now I am trying to match the last four characters of a referral string to a current location, let me show you what I mean. Example,
A(location string) B(current location) C(last location)
car/kitchen/house kitchen NO
kitchen/garage/car car YES
kitchen/car/garage car NO
I want to write a function in column C that matches the last four characters of the location string (column A) with the current location (column B) , and if they match have a YES in column C, or a conversely a NO.

Table 1
Code:
7/4/2011AMWG16=01BLK25K_USA[a3]*042711Date a Rich Black Man By June 232350$0.19 http://www.jyxsaw.com/blackrm/index.php?t202id=2676&t202kw=AMWG16=01_0210-3
7/4/2011AMWG16=01BLK25K_USA[a3]*042711Date a Rich Black Man By June
[Code]....
I've got two tables of information here, if you scroll to the far right of table 1 and look at the left of table two, you'll see a common code like:
AMWG16=01_0211-20
AMWG16=01_0212-16
and these entries will appear multiple times as well
AMWG16=01_0212-16
appears twice and the data is different and will need to be added up
How can I:
1. Add up the data on each table with the common string such as "AMWG16=01_0212-16"
2. Take all the data that has been added up and combine the statistics, for example,
when its all done it should show
AMWG16=01_0212-16
in the first column, and then all the statistics from the two tables in the columns to the right.
I'm guesssing...
Since some entries appear multiple times, you will need to sum up all the unique entries for that value. Say:
AMWG16=01_0211-20
Shows up three times, you'll need to sum up all the values and this needs to be done on both tables
THEN
You can combine the data
I'm familiar w/ vlookup, index, match functions, but I'm not quite sure how to put this all together

I have an application that on the "Main" sheet, is to extract two numbers then search for them on my "Listpoint" sheet and finally return the text to the right of the search data (e.g. K3)
Working left to right - the user pastes upto 12 lines of code into C3-C22. Formula in E3 extracts object Nos. Formula in K3 substitutes "first" number if it is a zero (with number from A3).
Left to do - Uses data (H3) to search Listpoint sheet colums C and B for a match. then returns text from Column S.
Note Listpoint has 1000 rows to search.
Main
ABCDEFGHIJKL1 2Osn Number Prog Point Text Extracted
ObJNos Zero replaced Name of Object 1 38 10 IF POINT 0|199 ON OR POINT 8|191
ON THEN RETURN FALSE 0 1998 191 8 1998 191
Example found Text 4 20 IF POINT 0|106 OFF THEN RETURN FALSE "HOLD OFF"

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.

The "code" could be in there more than once as the person took the survey multipule times, but all other data is different. How can i pull out the whole row when the code is there more than once.
I want to know all the "codes" with multipule entries that took the survey more than once then trend there scores.

1) I have 2 worksheets that contain 2 matching name columns; " Date" and the primary column A "Symbol". The rest of the column headings in each of the worksheets are different. Data (from internet sources) is inserted into the worksheets in table format on daily basis
Sheet 1 name = Data 1
Sheet 2 name = Data 2
Master worksheet name = MERGED DATA
2) I use the Match and Index formula for both sheets
the following formula is inserted in row 2 of Data 1 and Data 2 sheets (other than Col A "Symbol")
for column B in sheet 1
=If(Or(ISERROR(MATCH(sheet1_DataLookup,$A5:$A65536,0)),sheet1_DataLookup=""),"",INDEX(B5:B65536,MATCH(sheet1_DataLookup,$A5:$A65536,0),1))................

in writing a macro that does the following.
Right there data in cell A1 lets say LTP BY001 and then the next data in column A is LTP BY002 in cell A9. What I need to do is copy LTP BY001 from cell a2-A8 and then LTP BY002 From A10 until LTP BY003 appears lets say A15. Therefore need LTP BY002 copying from A11-A14. I need that to go right the way down the workbook at everytime their is a number change.

On my main worksheet, I have a list of stocks in the "A column", so for example reading down the list would be:
Vodafone
Vodafone
Ericsson
Nokia etc...
I have a seperate worksheet for each different name (about 100), and I wanted to know if there was a way to select all the information relating to the name "vodafone" for example, and to copy and paste that into the worksheet called vodafone. The problem is copying and pasting 100 times would take ages and wanted to know whether there is an easier way using VBA.
