=ISNUMBER(MATCH(X1,A:A,0)) where X1 is cell you are checking for a match to check and see if there are duplicates in 2 rows. Is there anyway to check to see if a cell contains a string of numbers. Example: Cell A1 has 0000402502LK and Cell A2 has 402502. Is there anyway to get this to show up as true since the 402502 in contained in the string in A1?
View 2 RepliesI have a list of entries of which some are distinct and others are similar. For example, I have 1) JohnSmith 2) JhonSmith 3)SomeoneElse. The first and second entry are similar but not equal due to a spelling mistake, the third entry is not related to the first. My question is: How can I obtain which entries belong together? The output would have to show that 1&2 are similar and that 3 is different.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have two lists of product data, one for buyers and one for sellers (these are listed as A, B, C). The product names are not exactly the same (Eg Playstation and playstation three should be matched), I would have thought using the FuzzyLogic add in to match these would be the way forward! I need to rank the sellers by how many of their items appear on the buyers list
View 8 Replies View RelatedSo I have this problem in excel with comparing 2 columns.
Basically, I have 2 columns(a &B) that I need to compare with one another and find out the matching data. I am trying to use that matching data to enter in our reports.
Both columns might have duplicate items because I am dealing with premium numbers.
Formula to compare these 2 columns and find the matching data and extract it to a separate column. Keep in mind, i am dealing with almost 20,000 lines of data.
I run a bowling leagues which as 7 divisions and 10 teams per division, some of the clubs have up to 4 teams entered. I keep a spreadsheet for each division which keeps records of each teams performances as well as individual. All the clubs have to register their players for which I keep a data base for each club, the clubs having 4 teams register quite a number of players. My problem is I have to manually check the data base against players being entered on score cards and then on to the spreadsheet. Down columns B & C on the spreadsheet I have the Forename & Surname, when I enter a name in the cells I would like a formula to check against the clubs data base and return the name or false

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.

Q:How to delete reversal entries?
I have debits & credits in the same excel column and i want to delete the matching amounts but with opposite signs.

3)Mr. A -2000
4)Mr. D 4000
5)Mr. A 2000
Now i want to matching amount of Mr. A of row 1 & 3 as these two entries are reversing each other. I am poor in english but hope that i have clarified the problem
This follows on from my previous posting [URL] ..... which produced a solution using an ActiveX Combobox that unfortunately does not work on Mac PCs!

My task is to combine two large databases into one spreadsheet by extending the number of columns. The data from each database is 90% matching based on an identification number, however occasionally there are additional rows or unmatched identification numbers that need to be kept for analysis.
When this happens, there needs to be a blank row inserted to represent the missing data in the rest of the corresponding row.
I am having trouble finding a quick way to do this because I have approximately 12,000 rows (and columns up to DV when combined).
for example:
p1
data
data
data
data
p2
data
data
data
data

needs to become:
p1
data

I am guessing I will need a macro of sorts, So far I have made one column that tell me if the ID's are matching or not (1 or 0) and if they are not matching (0) I manually insert the rest of the row that is missing or make space for the duplicate data (which needs to remain).
programming 2 macros in a bank reconciliation sheet I am trying to create.
Basically the data consists of two sets: the ledger side and bank side. Both sides consists of multiple columns that include date, description and amount.
The following two situations can occur and which need to be covered with a macro.
Many to one matching
When we make payments to say 100 different suppliers at once, the ledger side will show 100 lines with the different amounts. However on the bank side it will only show one line with a total amount for the transaction. As the description on the ledger side is the same for all transactions done at the same time, it should be possible to have a macro add these lines and compare the total with entries on the bank side. Once a matching amount has been found, the macro should place an ‘x’ next to all entries on the ledger and bank side, in order to show that these transactions have been reconciled.
Partial cell matching
In this case we are only dealing with one line on both the ledger and bank side. The issue is that the description does not always perfectly match with one another. The ledger side might say ‘Brown Corp.’ and the bank side might say ‘Brown Corporation’. I want to come up with a macro that can recognize this partial match and still reconcile the lines by placing a ‘x’ to both the ledger and bank entry. The match however should be done with a combination of description, date and amount as several different bookings might be done for the same supplier in the same month.
I have two tables, Table1 one has only customer codes in it, and I have Table2 with plenty of customer codes and those customer name, surname, age, location...
And I want to match and copy each of those customer codes in Table 1 all the information which is on Table2
Table 1:
50025
50026
50086
Table 2: Considering that name, age and location is each in separate cell
50025JohnSecond25Location 1
60085EmilyThird 20Location 2
45454Wilhelm Fourth35Location 3
10000RoseFifth 60Location 4
50086JohnySixth 45Location 5
65501JacobSeventh18Location 6
50026Jackie Eighth22Location 7
And the outcame should be that it finds the value from Table1 in Table2 and copy's information in Table 1 like this:
50025 JohnSecond25Location 1
50026 Jackie Eighth22Location 7
50086 Johny Sixth 45Location 5
I have two worksheet "ABX" and "ACX" from which I want to find the matching data for specific columns B, D and E only.
Matching data will be in sheet "Match" and vice versa.
Data are present dynamically.
As you can see in the example below, in column B I have a list of vendor names, some of which are similar but not identical. (For Example, in one instance a vendor will be called "Ford Motor Co.", while in another it will be called "Ford Motor Inc.".
I need to populate column C, which at every instance where two plants (listed in column A) have similar vendor names in Column B, a universal name will be assigned and recorded in column C for each of the similar names.
HOpefully it is clear as shown below.......

What I need to do is sort certain entries in longer list (column A, it is in .csv format and needs to be in it so coordinates and names and ID, all sorted with commas) and I have another list (column C) which is shorter list of certain IDs. I googled and tried and got some results for the basic structure but the fuction seems to fail. It doesn't matter how I get that third list done, but there is only one criteria: since the list in column A is really long and those entries need to keep the .csv formatting, the function should copy that info what is in the matching cells.
Let me try to put it simple: .csv cells from column A that have matching ID from column C should be copied to column B (or N).
the function I'm working with right now is
=IF(ISERROR(FIND($C:$C; A1))=TRUE;"0";A1)
I have a list of data and I want to identify the unique entries for both columns but the second column has to unique to the unique values in the first column.

I need a formula that will help me to create a weekly shopping list (as the values in the example above will change on a regular basis). So I need to take all values from the from columns A & B, multiply them by 5 and then show me the totals in another sheet.
Similarly, I need to do the same with columns E & F, only they need to be multiplied by 2. The totals then need to be added to give me the required amount (in grams) for the week.
I want to delete rows that are a subset of any other row. Not manually, as there are thousands of rows. For example, in the attached file, row 4 is a subset of row 5 (also row 12 of row 13, row 14 of row 15, and both rows 21 and 22 of row 23).

How to combine cells with a similar value inside them into a single cell. Here is what my data looks like.

When you filter a spreadsheet, you can find results that are similar to a condition. I have families of products that share a common 3 digits, but the rest of the model number is different. The 3 similar digits could be the first 3 digits, or it could be 3 digits starting with the 2nd digit. This spreadsheet has each complete model number on its own row. In that row is a number that represents a volume. I want to be able to sum the volume column if the model number contains the 3 digits.Model Number
Volume
A hat
5
B hat
1
A glove
4
hat
8
In the above example, the total for "hat" = 5 + 1 + 8 = 14
I would type in a condition (family name) into another cell (D1) and the formula in D2.
I have an excel grid which have 2 sheets, sheet2 have all the data, I am doing a macro which based on a value that I put in sheet1 is supposed to find Items which have similar value +/-3 from sheet1. I made a code which I posted below, I don't have any error message but it doesn't work as it should. I explain you with an example: If in the data grid I have the following values
11.8
67.0
25.5
18.1
13.0
if the value I look for is 12 +/-3, it doesn't find anything.
if the value I look for is 11 +/-3, it finds 11.8 but not 13,
if the value I look for is 20 +/-3, it finds 18.1,
if the value I look for is 23 +/-3, it finds 25.5,

Problem is Findstring finds cells that contain "SS1" AND "SS1 EXT". These are separate grades.
I need Findstring to only find SS1. Using xlWhole doesn't work for me, as the cells also contain other data. For example: " SS1 48 /"
CODE:
FindString = "SS1"
Findstring1 = "SS1 EXT"
With Sheets("Sheet1").Range(Rng4)
Set Rng = .Find(What:=FindString, _
After:=.Cells(.Cells.Count), _
[Code] ........
Cell A1 = 78-36
This is a win/loss ratio so to have it as a percentage I would have to divide the first number by the sum of the two numbers so 78/114 = 68.4% How would you do this with a formula?
I came up with this that isn't quite right, because RIGHT and FIND don't work together.
=LEFT(A1,FIND("-",A1,1)-1)/(LEFT(A1,FIND("-",A1,1)-1)+RIGHT(A1,FIND("-",A1,1)-1))
There must be a smarter way of doing this. TY
This is probably a simple question, but one I can't figure out after several hours. I am creating a spreadsheet focused on certifications.
I need to take the date each initial certification was achieved, and add x years to each cert, which is simple enough.
The sticky part is that the (date + x years) can't logically be a weekend; if it is, I need to subtract one or two days from the result, so that it's the *weekday* immediately prior.
e.g. if my initial certification date is: 1/23/2006 and my certifcation expires in four 4 years:
A47= date(2006,1,23)
h47= 10
=DATE(YEAR(A47)+H47,MONTH(A47),DAY(A47))
Result = Saturday, January 23, 2010
If the result is a Saturday or Sunday, I need to subtract one or two days from the date. In this example, I'd like: Friday, January 22, 2010 as the result.
I've been playing with 'if', et. al., to no avail.
