Putting Index Column - VLookup Does Not Pick Up Dates?
Apr 5, 2014
does it not like dates? i have columns of data and i wish to search it for each month and then print a months worth. here is part of the data. maybe vlookup does not like dates? i tried putting an index column on the left, 1,2,3,4... but it still would not pick up "Jun"
In the first vlookup it picks up a value. I need to do the same vlookup function but it should also pick up another value in column 9 and should add value in column 7 and 9 and return it. Employee id numbers are in column E in the first page.My formula checks for the employee id in Su sheet and retrieves the value from the seventh column. I need to retrieve also from 9 th column and add them together.
I want to pick a range of dates and find the number of days without sales between those dates. So, a formula that will look to a start date in A1 and an end date in B2, and then count the number of days that did not have sales between. Index/Match/Countif/Dateif I can't seem to make anything work.
I have a document that is a subject index for book that has terms that reference page numbers. The structure is for example: Employment, 587, 592, 553, 605, 233 The term is always following by comma and then space and listing of page numbers that subject reference applies. In many cases the page number references are out of sequence and I need them to be in numerical sequence. i.e. Employment, 233, 553, 587, 592, 605 There are many subject terms in index and need to check and fix sequence of page references for each.
If I have a column of data with a bunch of values (which can't be sorted & which is constantly changing so cant be broken into another column and then sorted) what formula do I need to output the second occurrence of a value in that column?
Which gives me proper result...but the problem i m facing is i have many columns after L4 like M4, N4, O4 and so on....where i have to get the result.
So for that every time i have to paste the above formula and manually change the col_index_num i.e. 6 then 7,8,9 in every column where i use the above vlookup. So is there anyway that it will append the col_num_index by 1....i.e.
Is there a way to automatically change the column index number in the VLOOKUP formula when copying the formula to columns? For example, when I copy a VLOOKUP formula from column A to column B, the cell references will change, but the column index remains the same. I'd like the column index to be increased by 1.
I've 2 worksheets, Summary and Sales. I need to get the total sales figure from the "Sales" worksheet onto the Summary worksheet. Sales data are pasted onto the worksheet monthly. Tried using vlookup but problem is, the column containing the total sales figure may vary and I need to update the vlookup formula. Another problem is that sometimes the Total sales (the lookup value) is not in the first column. Tried using the Index and Match combo but cannot get it to work. I've attached a simple mock up to hopefully illustrate my case better. I believe the experts in this forum should find this rather easy!
Is there a way to reference a cell value instead of using a static value for col_index_num? For example - Instead of telling it to look in the 5th column of Sheet2, I would like it to look in the column were the heading (row 2) in Sheet2 is equal to the value of O2 in Sheet1.
Here's another example -
Normal formula: VLOOKUP(a2,Sheet2,5,FALSE)
What I'd like: VLOOKUP(a2,Sheet2,column where row 2 equals the value in 'Sheet1'!O2, FALSE)
I have two spreadsheets, one with master file with original data and one that needs to pull in the original data. My issue is all the data to match off of is in the same column, and a number of other files link to the master file, plus it is used externally, so I cannot alter it, and I would rather not create a mock/copy file. Is there a formula that can look for 2 different items within the same column? Would prefer not to use VBA, but if that's the only option I'll take it. I am using Excel 2003.
Here is an example of the setup - I would need the formula to reference off the two different items/categories in the column, so lookup off the 'St. Louis' and following that, lookup off the produce items.
There is a speadsheet at work with a column which has a range of dates (from 18/05/2003 - date) which information gets drawn from every Friday. The information needed from the column is pretty simple but lengthy to expalin. For example...

As you can the dates are in no order...and need to stay that way. The information needed every week is shown here...

I have got the formula for the number of enteries between each date but strugling with the earliest date within the dates. I can do it manually by auto filtering the column and looking for the date closest to the earliest date but this is long.
The dates change on a weekly basis...just to throw a spanner in the works.
Writing this workbook in 2007, but it will be used in 2003. Have searched but can't find answer to this. I have a 5-column (A to E) table array and I'm using VLOOKUP in several other cells to return values in col2, 3, 4 & 5 with my lookup value being col 1. However, col 1 will contain numbers which occur more than once. How can I get VLOOKUP (or something else?) to pick the last occurence (lowest row) and use that one? Also, the array will be sorted - smallest to largest - as the rows go down - how will the SORT work on duplicate entries? I'd like, if possible, for the entry made most recently to be the lowest of the duplicate entries so that VLOOKUP (or whatever) will pick that one to use. Will any kind of SORT do that?
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.
I have 2 spreadsheets. One is a promotion calendar that lists the dates that promotions on a certain product runs. The other is a shipment grid of shipments of that product to the customer.
I want VLookup to find the customer and the dates and then bring me back an asterisk in a separate column to show me that that certain week that product was delivered was a promotion week. The problem I have is using Vlookup to lookup 2 things at once (and if they match to the promotion calendar) and return me an asterisk.
The below piece of code carries out a vlookup on a defined cells value and produces a result in sheet one, however if the column index number in sheet 2 (Database) is empty the result 00/01/1900 is produced.
I'm not sure how to say leave the result blank if the column index number is blank.
above is col A which has all codes and second is col D which has respective numbers. i want help with some macro which can combine (seperated with a comma) all the numbers in col D based on first three letters of each cell in col A.
see like for NDL, i will have 1100015657, 1100015658, 1100015659, 1100015600,1100015664.
I want to place this forumla "=IF(INT(B3/$U$1)=(B3/$U$1),1,0)" across my worksheet.
Now, I'm okay when dragging down as it works fine with the B3 changing to B4 and the U1 staying as U1.
However, I would like it so that when I drag it horizontally, the U1 becomes V1. I want it so that I can do this and it stays within the $. So when dragging sideways it becomes "=IF(INT(B3/$V$1)=(B3/$V$1),1,0)".
Need to trimming certain information contained in 1 cell and putting them each in a column. I could do left, mid & right but this time there is inconsistency in the content of the cell.
I've attached a file which will further give you an idea exactly what I want (formula to be in Column M to P).
Is there a formula or function that allows me to always select the lowest (not min) actual lowest in a column? For example, I have a formula in A1 and I need it part of it to always reference the bottom of a certain range (i.e. A5.A200).
So one day the lowest would be A7 but a week later it could be A8. I don't want to have to keep changing the formula in A1 to find the lowest value. I will be adding data on a regular basis.
The attachment shows a ledger that I am trying to build. My goal is to automatically add the Ledger balance(G) at the end of each day to the Investment cash balance(J) column. Some days there are multiple Ledger transactions, other days there are none. If there were no Ledger transactions on that day I would like to use the last recorded Investment cash balance. (ex. on weekends there will be no transactions)
Note: I want exactly one balance, the ending daily balance, per day on the investment side of the worksheet.
I have struggled with this all afternoon. My goal is to make this as simplistic as possible for two reasons. 1) I am not a master programmer by any means. 2) I want this file to open on any computer the has a MSExcel on it without have to install any addins.
For these reasons I am thinking it would be best to stay away from macros, which I am minimally proficient at creating.
Let me know if you have any good tricks to solve my problem. If macros are the ONLY or absolutely the BEST way to do this, then I guess you can twist my arm an we can go down that avenue.
As per attached file, there are altogether 4 sub-files and 1 master file.
I'll need the code to automatically pick up the top 9 revenue(highlighted in Green) and top 9 EBIT(highlighted in Yellow) by values in Column N from 4 sub-files and paste to the master file.
I have a column of numbers and I want to copy numbers, with a constant periodicity, and paste in a new column. In the example below, I copy values from column A and past in column B, picking only every third value:
I have some vba code that opens up notepad and populates it with data from Access 2010. Everything works great including the notepad function, the database, and how the data is stored and displayed in the table/form.
The problem: I want to display the service name not the ID in notepad
I passed the field that I want to include in notepad as a string. However, it returns the ID and not the name of the person.
I don't want to change anything in the form or field property because it works perfect as is.
Is there a way to pick which column to display in the Email by vba code?
Column 0 = the ID and Column 1 = the name
Code: Me.fieldName.Column(1) ^^That doesn't work for me
Here's my code (it works)
Code: Private Sub cmdNoteAccept_Click() Dim strCode As String
