Matching Up Fields With Variable Input

Oct 12, 2009

Example:
Order Number from VendorOrder Number from SupplierTracking Number from Supplier12345123451ZABCD13456134561ZBCDE134561ZCDEF14567145671ZDEFG1456714567

In these three orders, the first order nubmer has a 1-to-1 relationship with a single tracking number. In the second, there are two different tracking numbers associated with one number from column A. In the third, there is only one tracking number but three different lines of the same order number that need to be updated with it.

The question is, is there a way to line up data fields head to head even when there are variable inputs like this?

Populate Fields Based On Matching Numbers

I've been racking my puny brain for an hour trying to figure this out. Basically, my problem is with the last 2 invoices listed.

Matching 2 Fields In 2 Columns And Copying A 3rd Field Into The 3rd Column

Oct 8, 2009

I need a formula. Probably Vlookup. I'm having a LOT of trouble trying to figure out how to "phrase" the formula so let me explain what it is I'm trying to do. If a cell in Sheet 1 Column AS and a cell in Sheet 2 Column B match exactly, I want the cell in Sheet 2 Column C that is in the same row as the matched cell in Sheet 2 Column B to be copied into Sheet 1 Column BB in the same row as the matched cell in Sheet 1 Column AS.

For example, if cells in S1 Column AS and S2 Column B both have the name "LOS ANGELES" then "KLAX" will be copied from cell in S2 Column C (in same row as "LOS ANGELES") to S1 Column BB (in same row as "LOS ANGELES").

Determining Formula To Choose And How To Input The Data In Correct Fields

Aug 8, 2014

I am trying to save some time converting a cut up inventory catalog number. Specifically focusing on the color code. I have the list of colors associated with their specific part number. The order cannot change or my sheet will mismatch.

What I want to do is convert the # in column A to the color code text in column b so that it matches the translated code in column C? For example

1 I want to tell 1 to = Polished Chrome anytime #1 appears in my column.

What formula should I choose to achieve that goal. As well, how do I know what data to imput into the formula wizard?

Sheet is attached.

I have Cut a few thousand items off the bottom of the sheet. I can apply to additional data left off.

Variable Sheets, Variable Input

Mar 23, 2009

I run a machine that scans parts and is able to output the scans into Excel. Each part scanned creates a new sheet, and the number of sheets is variable as the number of parts scanned depends on the size of the lot. Also, since each part scanned is going to have a different number of features, the information being output on each sheet will be variable as well.

I am trying to figure out how to write a macro that will find the first feature, find the values for that feature I am looking for, output a max and min into a final sheet, and repeat for each feature, and for each sheet. I hope this is clear.

Matching Text On Different Sheets. Formula To Input ....

Nov 15, 2006

I have a workbook with two sheets (MainSheet and Stats)

In the Main Sheet Column A has a name entered which is surname plus a christian name e.g Smith Thomas

This name could be anywhere in the A column from the bottom up

In the Stats sheet Column A has a surname and Column B has a christian name e.g Smith in ColA and Thomas in Col B. Smith and Thomas will always be on the same row but could be in any row on the sheet from the bottom up.

I need a formula which can compare the name in the MainSheet with concatinated name from the Stats sheet if the names are the same then change Cell H1 to the text "Match"

An example might be that on the MainSheet A16OO = "SMITH TOM" on the Stats sheet A2="SMITH" B2 = "TOM" .
The formula would be on the Stats Sheet in H2 which in this case would = "Match"

Prevent The User From Saving The Data Input From The User Form If Any Of Those Three Fields Is Left Blank

Feb 9, 2010

I have a user form that has a combo box "City" two text boxes one called "Flight" and the other "Date". What I'm trying to do is to prevent the user from saving the data input from the user form if any of those three fields is left blank. The code that I have so far checks all of the required fields, if any are left blank a message notifys which field(s) is left blank and return the focus back to that field. But the rest of code also fires.

What I really need is either to stop the code if any fields are blank and return the focus back to the blank field, the user completes the field(s) and clicks the save again, or better yet, pause the code until all the required fields are completed and then complete the save. (There is actually another 200+ lines of code in this sub, but I deleted it to keep the post a little shorter.)

Call Tracker - VBA Coding: Input Screen To Auto Clear The Fields Once The " Save " Button

Oct 24, 2009

1) We need the Input screen to auto clear the fields once the " Save " button has been pressed and data transfered to the appropriate tracking sheet

2) We want to ensure that if any of the Red cells are empty the " Save " button will give an error ( one complication If the "Transfer Type" highlighted in Blue has an entry " either STD/ISD/ESP " then " Call Purpose " needs to be mandatory

3) somehow the information on the "Comment " field is not getting captured

4) If possible we want a warning indicator if two rows in a tracking sheet ( example London ) are the same based on Coloums B to I ( except C )

5) Is there any possibility to give a pop calender in the " scheduled date " section of Input screen (Row 33)

Delete Rows Not Matching Date Variable

Mar 10, 2008

I have a need to call a sheet from another sheet, copy two pages from the newly opened, existing sheet to a new workbook, search one sheet of the new workbook for any entries that don't contain a variable I specify, which is the first four digits of the field, and delete them. The sheets represent a daily view of jobs (identified by the "RptDate" variable) and an entire monthly list of jobs, which I want to delete all of them not from the date specified in the variable "RptDate". The fields in column A contain the date in "mmdd" format as the first four digits, and I have that specified in the "B1" celll of the originating workbook.

I found some code in this link Search Column Delete Row If Value Found that looked good. I had to modify it since I needed to search for a variable (RptDate) and needed to search column A and start on row 8 of that column. My current code looks like this:

Sub Macro1()

Dim RptDate As String
Dim RptMonth As String
Dim iLastRow As Long
Dim i As Long
RptDate = Range("B1").Text
RptMonth = Range("B2").Text
Workbooks.Open Filename:=(RptMonth)
Sheets( Array(RptDate, "Total Database")).Copy
iLastRow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = iLastRow To 8 Step -1
If Left(Cells(i, "A").Value, 4) <> RptDate Then
Rows(i).Delete
End If
Next i
End Sub

It works fine right up to the "Rows(i).Delete" line. It errors out with a "run-time error 1004, delete method of range class failed" and highlights the above line. I know the fields I'm pulling the variables from are working right since it opens the correct workbook off of one of them.

Input Daily Data - Variable Do Not Move In Formula

Jun 6, 2014

I have create an excel formula that I need to input data daily.

Every day, I need to insert a line and input my new data.

Below is my formula

=IF(V159="Skip","Go",IF(P160>0,IF(COUNTIF(C60:D154,">"&H159+3),"Good"),IF(COUNTIF(C60:D154,"<"&H159-3),"Good")))

The problem is that when I insert a line. Most of my variable will change according except C60:D154

As you can see below

V159 change to V160 = This is good

C60:D154 do not change accordingly. How can I make it change accordingly ?? Why it is not changing when I insert a line ?

=IF(V160="Skip","Go",IF(P161>0,IF(COUNTIF(C60:D154,">"&H160+3),"Good"),IF(COUNTIF(C60:D154,"<"&H160-3),"Good")))

Custom Function With Variable Number Of Input Parameters?

May 10, 2013

how to create a custom function with an unknown/changing number of input parameters?

Specifically, I need to create a function that will calculate the average of 1,2 or more ranges. I can't use the built-in average function as I then need to use the average in my function.

what I have so far is:

function points(current as range, previous as range)
if previous > current then final=1
if previous < current then final=0
if previous = current then final=2
points=final
end function

This works okay if I only only have 1 range of values. but in my worksheet I need to be able to enter =points(a1,c1:f1,g1) and have the function calculate the average of c1:f1,g1 and compare it to a1.

Variable # Of Cells That Need Formula Matching # Of 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.

Compiling Partially Matching Data Into Matching Rows With Macro

Jan 20, 2013

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

[Code] .....

needs to become:

p1
data
data
data
data

[Code] .....

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).
