Non Exact Matches In HLOOKUP
Oct 27, 2009Is it possible to use HLOOKUP without exact matches. e.g. < =HLOOKUP(E1,Actuals,2) > where E1 is "2009 October" and the lookup value in named range "Actuals" would be simply "Oct".

(in fact I have used an example but it does not work - in my case ).
I am using H lookup but need to find the exact match.
I know that you can use false on a Vlookup to get an exact match but it does not appear to be working with Hlookup.
I attach an example and hope someone can enlighten me...
I have some values representing daily values belonging to a particular Week number. The week numbers appear from 1 to 6 times in the top row. I would like to get data pertaining to a particular week number (as entered in B10) from the array in the area shown in Light Yellow and from there, I would do some minor calculations to arrive at the required data..
In the sample, the week number 3 appears 3 times and is shown here. The first value I am able to get using HLOOKUP. Getting subsequent occurrences are the issue I have. I thought I will try and use OFFSET function based on the cell reference of the first occurrence of the week number to obtain the rest. I have not had any luck in that.
Basically, my issue is how to use HLOOKUP to obtain if the Lookup value is repeated in the range. Or should this be tackled using some other route?
The week numbers appear in a sequence and are not placed at random.
I want to use Hlookup to get a non-blank values from a list that has multiple matches.
my data
a b a c d
1 2 3 4
if i match 'a' my result should be 2, by skipping the first blank.
I am getting #N/A errors even when I have an apparently exact match in my
table array to the lookup value. I know that excel requires the formats to
be exactly the same and I can force the match if I copy the lookup value from
my table array and paste it into the worksheet. Is there an easy way to
"fix" my table array. The table array is a reference worksheet I have
created which has worked in the past.
I have the following formula which, if text is in A1, will lookup from a list of worker's comp codes to locate the code in A2 and return the wording for that
=IF(ISTEXT(A$1),VLOOKUP(A$2,Codes!$B$3:$C$720,2),"")
However, if there is not an exact match to the code in A2, it returns the wording for the next closest code.
Is there a way to make it so that it will only return the wording for the exact match and return "invalid code" if the number in A2 is not found on the list on the "Codes" sheet?

2 worksheets.
Worksheet 1, holding all data in column C.
Worksheet 2, the value in column B.
In need for a function that list all exact matches of the values in worksheet 2 column B that are found in Column C of worksheet 1.
I got this VBA code that checks for the string in worksheet 2, column B, but it is a Instr, and I need a exact match and only the exact match. Is this difficult to modify and how?
Or would this be a regular array function?
(I would not need a macro, since the data change constantly and I prefer function as they update easily)
Function matchArray(ByVal testString As String, ByVal dataRange As Range, Optional IndexNum As Long) As Variant
Dim outRRay() As String
Dim rangeArray As Variant
Dim xColl As New Collection
Dim xVal As Variant
Dim rIndex As Long
I have a large worksheet in drive C: called 'hits.csv' that has manufacturer part numbers in column G and column L.
I need macro code to find all rows in the worksheet where the part number in each cell in column G is exactly the same as the part number on the same row in the corresponding cell in column L. The macro should then delete/remove all rows where there is no exact match.
Note: The part number in every cell in column G is the only thing that is in each cell in that column. However just to warn you that the part number in every cell in column L is at the beginning of each cell, followed by a space and then a description of the part.
Once it has done the above, I would also like this macro code to open a worksheet called 'partnumbers.csv' in drive C:. It should then compare the part numbers in column A of this file with the part numbers in the above worksheet ('hits.csv'). The cells in Column D of the file 'partnumbers.csv' all contains a price. Where the macro finds an exact match on the part numbers in these 2 files, it should copy the price from the cell in column D in the file 'partnumbers.csv', into Column K of the other file, 'hits.csv' where the match exists.
I have a workbook that contains 3 sheets. What i am looking to do is:
1. Use the names in Sheet 1 (Column A) and find the names on Sheet 2(Column E).
2. If there is a match, put the whole row that contains the match on Sheet 3
Doing some job costing on our lowes invoice and am using SUMIF and asterisks to account for all the different names that get used for properties by the cashiers. An example of that range column is:
67TH AVE
19112 PONCA
51ST
STERLING
9420 67 ST
1503 SW 13TH
51ST
10818
19112 PONCA
19112 PONKA
I have formatted this whole column as text and get strange results from sumif when there are exact matches. For example the "10818" string is uniform through the spreadsheet and returns a result of 0.00 if entered as "*10818*" for criteria but returns the correct amount if I use "10818" or 10818 with no quotes.
It seems to be related to the text strings that contain just "numbers" as I'm having no trouble picking up exact matches when there are alpha characters.
i'm trying to use HLookup to find an adjusted midterm grade that's given. but i have some conditions:
If student missed exam and has a zero – keep zero.
If student has a grade of 1-119 points, increase their grade 40 points.
If student has a grade of 120-125 points, increase their grade 35 points.
If student has a grade of 126-131 points, increase their grade 31 points.
If student has a grade of 132-139 points, increase their grade 27 points.
with these conditions, if my midterms grade is 120, how would i calculate it using HLookup? i worked on it but i keep getting the #NA! error.
=H4+HLOOKUP(H4,B24:D25,2).
I am trying to import a BASE ESTIMATE table into EXCEL.
I have problems with most of the formulas, especially this one:
=VLOOKUP($E$2,$B$24:$P$604,HLOOKUP($E$3,$D$22:$L$604,1)+2)*HLOOKUP(HLOOKUP($E$3,$D$22:$L$604,1),$D$2 2:$L$23,2)
and this one
=ROUND((IF(AND(OR(E7>E5,E7>E6),E3<40000),E7,IF(AND(E6<E5,E3<40000),E6,E5)))*E8*1.055*1.06,2)+10
I am not sure if EXCEL allows a HLOOKUP within an HLOOKUP. If not, how can I get around this?

Column A, called "Results", contains carrot ^ delineated string values in each cell (i.e."john^apple^pear^banana^grape^love^heart^pickle"). The majority of string values in every cell in my "Results" column match a "source" column of Pick-List Values, called "Fruits" in the same spreadsheet, however found in a different worksheet called "Lists" (also in Column A).

Attached is a simple example of what I'm trying to accomplish called " Sorting.xls"
is it possible to have a cell return all matches from a list and have the list of matches reduce as you type, then be able to select one item from the list? this is a typical feature on internet sites, but can it be done in Excel?

I have various 6 x 6 blocks which contain just numbers, in another part of the spread sheet I have a 1 x 6 block of numbers. What I need to do is to check whether any of the numbers in the 1 x 6 block appear in any of the 6 x 6 blocks.If that does occur then I want to make a specific cell increase by the times that the match happens.using HLookup but just got errors and the If Statement, although did work, went on and on and on.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have some experience with programming, so I understand the theory behing things like loops, arrays and functions etc...Only problem is, I need to make a program at work to ease workloads and I'm afraid I have no idea where to begin.
Basically, I need something similar to a lookup, but thanks to the limit of IF statements available in the formula bar, I can't write what I need.
The program I need to write wouldbe similar to an autofill function.
On Sheet1 of my spreadsheet, there are fields:
Name, Address 1, Address 2, Address 3, Postcode, Area, Rep....
(The last three are the most important)
On sheet two, Postcode, Area, Rep already have data entered in thier respective columns. (D3, E3, F3).
What I need done on Sheet1 is when the user enters the first two characters of a postcode, the 'program' will lookup the entire row respective to the postcode that is entered. when enter is pressed, the Postcode will copy itself from the other sheet as well as the Area number and the Rep into the empty fields in Sheet1. The other way to do this is look through a long list until the right postcode for an Area is found then assign the Rep the Contact details (Add. 1, Add. 2, Add. 3...).
I want to do an HLOOKUP but I need to skip row in the formular. See details below:

I have a huge data and I need to find values through HLookup and than have to find the sum of that whole column.But when I tried to to so It is showing error as Formula broken.
sum(HLOOKUP((HLOOKUP(F7,B1:D5,2,TRUE)),B1:D5,3,1):HLOOKUP((HLOOKUP(F7,B1:D5,2,TRUE)),B1:D5,4,1))
Here f7 = the value which need to be find.
It is like
Abc
Cdb

and i want the sum of (1,2,3) and have given to search for Abc
I used the following formula when the worksheet was in the same workbook.
=HLOOKUP($E$6,INDIRECT("'"&B14&"'!$A$1:$N$2"),2,)
The information in cell B14 is the same as the target sheet name.
I want to move the target sheet to another workbook.
How would i need to adjust the formula in order to return the same information from this new workbook?
I have the following spreadsheet lets say.
I would like to match the name and the date and get the relavent figure from the "range" name
how can i do this?
The formula I'm looking for should look for the name mentioned in B2 in range AC2:AF400 and retrieve the corresponding data below it starting from D11 to D41 and continue on F7 to F34 etc.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a formula that looks like this:
=HLOOKUP('Output'!$B$3,'Input'!$B$1:$P$300,'Input'!$A3+1,FALSE)
It is working very fine, when the cell has a value, but when it doesn't - it will return 0. So my question is: is there any way to make it return certain value or word like "No value" instead of zero?
I have an Excel workbook containing a number of worksheets. My problem is that on one sheet(BlkPick) I have Rows containing headings(Location Names)and a column containing Product names. I wish to lookup the corresponding value contained at the matching intersection on another worksheet. I have searched this forum along with google and found that INDEX & MATCH are what I should be combining with Vlookup and these work when used on the same worksheet but when I test using say MATCH alone I get an error when attempting to MATCH my result from a different worksheet.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a chart of numbers pertaining to progress of a project by month. The

corresponding rows and columns below:
31-mar-06 30-apr-06 31-may-06 30-jun-06

I'm trying to do a SUM of HLOOKUP values to get a total progress for a given

of March: SUM(HLOOKUP(5.5) to HLOOKUP(1.2))=5.5+3.4+1.2 in a cell at the
end of the row. How can I do this? Do I need to use another function?
Really basic question - I'm trying to get HLOOKUP to lookup a number and return text that is in another cell but it keeps returning #N/A. I know the formula works because when I change the text (that I want returned) into a number it returns the figure. How can I get round this?
