Putting Formula In The Sentence Part Of IF / ISNA / VLOOKUP String
May 21, 2013
I have been using an IF,ISNA,VLOOKUP formula as follows which I am sure you are all familiar with :
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(K7,Orig!A7:B35,COLUMNS(B7:B35)+1,0)),"",VLOOKUP(K7,Orig!A7:B35,COLUMNS(B7:B35)+1,0))
This formula works correctly, displaying the lookup value for K7. My query is between the"" I can place text to display when K7 is blank and this works correctly too. However I would like to place a formula in here. The formula is VLOOKUP(I7,Orig!A7:B35,COLUMNS(B7:B35)+1,0 i.e. the lookup value is now I7 and not K7 when K7 is blank.
I have tried the following and variations based on what I know but they return errors.
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(K7,Orig!A7:B35,COLUMNS(B7:B35)+1,0)),(""& VLOOKUP(K7,Orig!A7:B35,COLUMNS(B7:B35)+1,0),VLOOKUP(K7,Orig!A7:B35,COLUMNS(B7:B35)+1,0))
Any better way of using I7 as the lookup value when K7 is blank.

I'm trying to use this formula but I get the error "too many arguments". How can I do the same as the formula without an error:
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(B12,GYROLOK316ANDM!A12:E2000,3,FALSE)),VLOOKUP(B12,GYROLOKBR!A12:E2000,3,FALSE), VLOOKUP(B12,VALVESFILTERS!A12:E2000,3,FALSE),VLOOKUP(B12,GYROLOK316ANDM!A12:E2000,3,FALSE))
I added in the VLOOKUP(B12,VALVESFILTERS!A12:E2000,3,FALSE) - when I used it without that it worked. But I have 3 sheets I need the the VLOOKUP to look over and this formula that I copied off another thread only had 2 tabs.

My sheet contains values like these:
A/5
A/3
B/4
What I want to do is sum all the values after the / for a particalur value before the /:
A 8
B 4
I already tried VLOOKUP, but this function wants you to point to a certain cell to return instead of a just a part of the cell. It should return 5 for the first row to be able to perform a sum for every value of A.
How can I perform such a calculation without having to copy the values to separate cells? Can I contain all of this in one function?

Im sure this cant be done because it defies the logic of the LOOKUP function but I know there are some clever people on here so i thought id ask!!
I have 2 workbooks containing similar data from 2 different sources; the one common data item in both is a clients address but have the age old problem of data quality, which needs sorting eventually but i need a quick fix!
In workbook one for example the address will be recorded as RUSKIN RD
In workbook two the address will be recorded as RUSKIN ROAD
A simple look up wont work obviously as the 2 values dont match, then i thought of using the LEFT function but again this goes against the logic of the VLOOKUP.

I'm trying to use this formula to lookup the value in the array that matches, however, the first 4 numbers aren't known (thus why I'm doing the lookup) =VLOOKUP("*"&C2, 'KLIF Data'!A:C,1,0)
The * is being interpreted as a character, is there a way to perform the Vlookup function using a wildcard? Or just ignoring the first 4 characters of the cells in the array would work.

If I have a store number (say 1234) and I am trying to search for something which contains 1234 (i.e. the whole string of ABCD1234, ABCD1235, ABCD1236 etc) is it possible to do this in one VLOOKUP formula?
One way of doing it would be to VLOOKUP("ABCD"&"1234",....) but I would rather do it the other way around, to prevent the formula from not working.

I am trying to reference a Name of a place from an order number. To illustrate, University Park, IL can have an order # of 6598641373. The only thing is, all I need to reference is the first four digits, 6598. The other worksheet does not have city and state names, they only have the order #s.

I use the following formula. It works except it returns "0" if the field is blank. What alternate formula can I use that will return blank instead of zero if the field is blank?
=IF(B3="","",IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(B3,Customers!$A$2:$L$1502,5,FALSE)),IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(VALUE(B3),Customers!$A$2:$L$1502,5,FALSE)),"",VLOOKUP(VALUE(B3),Customers!$A$2:$L$1502,5,FALSE)),VLOOKUP(B3,Customers!$A$2:$L$1502,5,FALSE)))

I'm trying to get data from another tab, but only if it is greater than or less than a certain number. Here's what I'm using but doesn't seem to work.
=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(A13, 'Aim MTD'!A2:T63, 5, FALSE)),">=22.00%",VLOOKUP(A13, 'Aim MTD'!A2:T63, 5, FALSE))
A13 is targeting the name of the person
Aim MTD is the sheet tab the info is in
And I want to select the information only if the cell value is 22% or greater. If the cell value is less than 22%, I don't want it to read or to read zero. I'm not an excel expert (yet), but hope to be one day!

I have the following vlookup working exactly as I want it to in excel: =IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(LEFT(C2,10)& "*", NAME,2,FALSE)),"",(VLOOKUP(LEFT(C2,10)& "*",NAME,2,FALSE))) -NAME is a defined section on another worksheet
The problem I have is when I come to use this within a vba macro I'm writing the wildcard section automatically gets spaces added so it goes from "*" to " * " and excel doesn't like it! The code I'm using to write it into the cell is simply:
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(LEFT(c2,10)& " * ",NAME,2,FALSE)),"",(VLOOKUP(LEFT(c2,10)& " * ",NAME,2,FALSE)))"
how to stop the spaces being added?

=IFERROR(SEARCH("[",string,1),MID(string position,start of char,length of char))
Hi I wish to pull out the characters from a sentence. Once it detects the "[" from the sentence it should pull the string that follow limiting to the length of the character.
It looks like I did something wrong and the results shows only the position of "[" only.
I want to error check because it to return nuthing if there's no value. IF statement would process errors in this case.

Is there any way to remove the first part of a string of text in a cell and save the second part?
The first part of the text string is a team code that has a variable number of numbers, capital letters and sometimes spaces. The second part of the text string is a variable number of words in a team name that all start with a capital letter and have lower case letters. Every line has a different team code and team name.
The original spreadsheet also has a column with just team code. Is there a way of using this column to "subtract" the team code from the text string to just leave the team name?

I have 2 spreadsheets. Both have a list of part numbers on. Beside each part number i want a formula that tells me if the part number is present in both spreadsheets so its says TRUE. If its not present then FALSE. I've tried using this command but it doesn't seem to work properly =ISNA(MATCH(B2,A:A,TRUE))
I've attached the 2 spreadsheets. Spreadsheet1 is where i need the forumula placed beside the part numbers so if its present in Spreadsheet2 as well it displays TRUE beside the part number in Spreadsheet1.

[Code] ......
For example cell E81 would contain "abc, def, ghi" . I want to add to the string above only "abc" and not the entire cell content.

I have a list of deals at current this is 500 odd cells long and increases every week
What i was doing was using a VLOOKUP to give me the details of the deal.
The problem with this is as follows
The deal ID was in column M,
What i was doing was copying the Deal Id and putting this into column A and then doing a vlookup.
What ive just realised is that this wont do what i need.
What this will do is return the value of the deal but only if the deal ID is matched in both Column A and M to give me the correct information.
Is there any way possible i can put in a deal ID, that will search the spreedsheet of all deals and return me all of the inforamtion of that deal

I have configured conditional formatting to check valid entries in a dependant list. I used the solution provided by SHG at:
http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...ant-lists.html
Now I need to use a macro to activate and deactivate the conditional formatting due to performance issues.
When the formula for data validation includes the indirect funtion I got a compile error and the macro won't run.

I have a Vlookup which I want to modify so that it can become dynamic as the table array part of the vlookup will change.
So the basic vlookup is as follows:
=VLOOKUP($R$3,ATTRIBUTION_FACTSET!$M$60:$P$73,2,0)
but the data I am looking for wont always be in the range M60:P73.
So I tried to make it dynamic by doing the following:
=VLOOKUP($R$3,INDIRECT("ATTRIBUTION_FACTSET"&"!M"&U1&":P"&V1),2,FALSE)
The idea being that U1 and V1 would be numbers that can change so in this case U1 would equal 60 and V1 would equal 73
This vlookup is giving me #N/A and no matter how I modify it I cannot get it to work.
