Normalizing Contact List For Use In Excel?

Apr 10, 2013

I've been tasked with entering a list of contacts into our database. The list is pretty long, so I want to upload it all into our dbase by reorganizing it all into a csv file. I need fields for name, title, organization, address, phone number, etc. problem is not all contacts have info for all fields. I'm having a hell of a time getting this data into a usable format.

Creating Contact List With Dropdowns / Lookups For Multiple Offices

Apr 4, 2013

I've attached my .xlsx file for easier understanding.

What I want to do is segment out a contact list by "market area" and "department" and pull the corresponding data with those labels from the Contact List tab into the main tab when validated by the dropdowns.

1.) The Market Area dropdown represents different offices.
2.) The Department dropdown represents departments within each office.

What I want the user to be able to do is to select the 2 dropdowns at the top and view an entire listing of the roster of those departments based on how they are labeled on the Contact List tab. I'm still a relative newbie to vlookup/hlookup so I've tried using them and encountered issues with it returning more than one value or being difficult to fill down the next series of values, etc. I simply want it to return the entire set of employees that fit the identifying dropdowns.

Normalizing Data For Import

Apr 13, 2009

I need to import a massive spreadsheet into QuickBase. It will have close to twentyG records when(if) I can do this thing.

The table i'm importing into (Groups) is a details table which carries the 'Many' attribute in a M:N relationship.

There is a column in the spreadsheet (Groups) that is distributed over several columns:

UserID---------------Groups
=====================================
12345---------------SPE-UID, SPE-PRE, SPR-DDR
34567---------------ADR-NNB
56789---------------NNI-ZIY, HII-PRE, SPR-DDR

In order to import into QuickBase, I need these data to be normalized:

UserID---------------Groups
=====================================
12345---------------SPE-UID
12345---------------SPE-PRE
12345---------------SPR-DDR
34567---------------ADR-NNB
56789---------------NNI-ZIY
56789---------------HII-PRE
56789---------------SPR-DDR

Can Excel create a normalized arrangement like what I have above without my having to manually work this? It would take days if I had to.

Sorting And Normalizing Chart Data?

May 7, 2014

I *think* I know the answers to this, but we'll see...

Let's say I have five salesmen:
Mr. Red
Dr. Green
Ms. Blue
Mr. White
Mr. Black

Each month they make sales.

So I have a table, where each salesman is a row and each month is a column, and the cell is populated with sales.

I'd like to do a COMBINED Horizontal Bar chart, where:
- Each row is a month
- The size of each person is actually their PERCENT of Sales, not the total amount (without me having to add rows of calculations)
- Each month automatically sorts the colored boxes in size order.

In other words, here's sample data:
Red - ( 0, 3, 0, 9)
Green - ( 8, 3, 6, 5)
Blue - ( 7, 3, 2, 8)
White - ( 4, 2, 3, 7)
Black - ( 5, 5, 5, 5)

So the top bar would have four colored boxes, in the following order: Green, Blue, Black, White The green box would be 33 percent of the total width, the blue one just a titch smaller, and so on

The next bar would have five boxes, and would be the same length as the one above, and have, in following order: Black, Red, Green, Blue, White The black box would be just smaller than a third (5/16 of the length); red, green, and blue would all be the same size, and the white box would be a titch smaller

The next bar would also have four boxes (time for Red to go!), and would be the same length as the ones above, and would have, in the following order: Green, black, white, blue The boxes would be sized appropriate to their ration in that row (ie, even though Black has sold five each month, each month it makes a different proportion)

and so on.

A doughnut chart does the percentage-of-total thing snazzily, but the sorting gets weird.

I actually havve a ton more data than in my example, so manual calcs and manually manipulating won't work here.

Parse Contact Names

Aug 22, 2007

I have an unusual request this time. Client wants this and I know it's dumb but this is what they need and I can't figure it out (not smart enough ).

They have the following as contacts in column A:

Belinda Jones & Grant Smith
Ken & Marie Johnson
Bart Simpson

They need this separated into a Contact 1 and Contact 2 so that it ends up like this:

Contact1 Contact 2
Belinda Jones & Grant Smith
Ken & Marie Johnson
Bart Simpson

This is a list of 10,000 names and I have no idea.

Clean Up Data In Contact Sheets?

Dec 2, 2013

I am putting together a master sheet of 1000s of contacts for colleagues taken from various sources (outlook contact download, linked in download, inputted business cards etc). I have noticed that everyone has their own way of using outlook and the data (normally addresses and phone numbers) appear in different columns and formats. I have used the function concatenate to add zeros back to numbers if i have had to use .csv as the download output, but I have the issue of mobile numbers in the wrong columns (i.e. someone has put a mobile number as the business phone). Is there a way of creating a new column and then applying a logic formula of some kind saying if a number starts with 07 then it appears in the new column, but if it doesnt then to ignore it therefore separating the mobile numbers so I can add to the correct column?

Business-card Data Into Unique Rows Per Contact?

Sep 20, 2009

I have a lot of information for various contacts, in the following format:

Name: John Smith
Address: 123 Spring Street
Phone: 555-5555
Email: example@example.com

Name: Jane Doe
Address: 456 Elm Street
Phone: 555-5555

Phone: 444-4444
Email: example3@example.org

What I am trying to do is convert that information so that it looks in a spreadsheet as follows:

example.jpg

I feel fairly sure this is the kind of thing Excel is capable of doing, but despite much searching and experimenting can't figure out how to do.

Import Contact Info From Macro Address Book 4.0.6

Sep 6, 2008

At job, Mac OSX and Address Book 4.0.6 with contact info including in many cases emails. I'd like to get it of there, into Excel to manipulate, and ultimately into a FileWrecker Pro database. How to export 1087 entries from Address Book including only selective data fields is the question, and I know that's "slightly" OT, but I do want to import into Excel, so I hope that vindicates me! If not, and you can point me to a good MacForum, I'll settle.

Formula: Find The “best” Contact Information And Return The Result To The Merge Sheet

Feb 17, 2009

I have a formula that needs some tweaking. This formula is to reference the ACCT and find the “best” contact information and return the result to the Merge sheet. If the ACCT does not have a Parent then you reference the ACCT to the abc_Phonelist sheet. If the ACCT does have a Parent then use the Parent ACCT since it has a more desirable account number to reference against the abc_Phonelist. If the ACCT or the Parent ACCT uses Processors then the ACCT from the Processors sheet has the best reliable account number to reference against the abc_Phonelist.
In sum, there are three different possible “number tiers” that can be used. The first, the ACCT phone number. This means that the ACCT has neither a Parent nor a Processor. The second, the parent ACCT phone number. This means that the ACCT has a Parent, but neither the Parent ACCT nor the ACCT has a Processor.The third, the Processor phone number. This means that either the ACCT or the Parent ACCT has a Processor phone number.....

Updating Named Range When New Contact Is Added Using R1C1 Format With A Variable

Feb 1, 2010

The code below is for a macro that allows the user to create a list of contacts. The column containing the names of these contacts are then referenced by a userform (code not present) by way of a Named Range. I want to update the named range whenever the user adds another contact so this new contact shows up in the user form.

I am currently referencing the range containing the names using R1C1 style, but I cannot get the variable aspect to work correctly.

Weekday/workday Date 1 Month After The Last Contact Date

Sep 20, 2009

I have a list of clients that have specific requests waiting to be actioned, with a number of columns relating to client details and the status of the request across the top of the sheet. One of the columns (D) is "Last Contact Date", where I enter in the date that I last followed up with the client or made contact regarding their request. In the next column (E), I want the weekday/workday date 1 month after the Last Contact Date.

I can use "=D2+DAY(30)" to give me the date 30 days later, or "=DATE(YEAR(D2),MONTH(D2)+1,DAY(D2))" to get one month later, however what I want is the nearest WORKDAY after this date.

So, if the date is on a weekend, I need the Monday date instead.

Excel 2010 :: How To Reference Unit Price In List Two Based On Date In List One

Mar 8, 2012

I'm using Excel 2010 on a Windows 7 machine.

I have one sheet with a large list of dates and total prices.

I have a second sheet with a list of dates and unit prices.

I want to divide the total price in my first list by the unit price on my second list.

I want to somehow point Excel to the date in the first list, and then lookup the corresponding date in the second list to use the correct unit price.

My thoughts thus far have been along using VLOOKUP with WEEKNUM and YEAR but I've been unsuccessful.

Excel 2007 :: Data Validation List Depend On Another DV List

Apr 29, 2012

I have a List of Different Fruits in Cells A1 to A5

Apple
Banana
Orange
Strawberry
Cherry

And I use data validation list in 5 different cells from Cells C1 to C5 then in every cell the list will show all the fruits,

But I want that if I select Any Fruit in cell C1 that should not be included in the remaining 4 cells, and the fruits selected in Cells C1 and Cell C2 should not be included in the remaining 3 cells and so on....

I Used the formula

=IF(C1=A1,OFFSET(A2,,,COUNTA($A$2:$A$5),1),0)

But this works fine if I select Apple in the Cell C1, then the List of C2 Shows all Fruits other than Apple, But if in Cell C1 I select any fruit other than Apple it does not work... (Using Excel2007 & Win XP)

Excel 2007 :: How To Create A Top 10 List

Sep 20, 2011

I am struggling with trying to create a Top 10 list in Excel 2007. I have googled and search the forum but could not find a solution. (Aplogies if i have overlooked a thread)

I have attached an example of my problem.

1. In Column F i would like to extract the names of the Top 10 performers, based on their respective score. Hence, based on the scoring in Column D, Column F should extract the Top 10 performer names from column A.

2. In Column G, same as above, but bottom 10 names

3. From the attachment, you will view some names are highlighted. I.e. Gary & Neil, and Ian & Michael. These are highlighted based on the fact that they have equal scores.

When extracting the Top / Bottom 10 list, i would like to rank the performers with same score differently. e.g. Gary & Neil, both scored 0%, hence they are equal. But in the Top 10 list, i would like to rank Gary higher as his absolute target is higher. (63 vs. 27) . Same applies to Ian & Michael, Michael should rank higher in the Bottom 10 List as his absolute target is higher.
