is there a formula or a way to return a unique entry in a column if a value is present in another cell? refer attachment; if their is a value in column C (site A) return the entry in column B but only if it is unique, ie. return supplier 'DEF' only once irrespective of the amount of times the value appears under the site heading.
View 8 RepliesI'd like to evaluate a series of columns where a value greater than 1 would return all matches in another worksheet. I can't seem to use LOOKUP or Pivot Tables effectively to do this.
For example
Task Week1 Week2 Week3
task1 5 8
task2 6 10
task3 5
I'd like to create a view that would show Week1 having one task (task1) that will take 5 (hours). Week2 should show task1 and task2, Week3 should show task2 and task3
I am using vlookup to return data from a range that could have the same name in column A.
There are 8 columns
Column 1 is Name
Column 2 is Sun
Column 3 is Mon
and so on.
The problem I have is that a name can appear in two places in column1 with relevant information in different columns:
Fred appears twice, on Wed he is on a course the rest of the week he is on leave. I need a C to be returned for Wed & A/l for the rest of the week.
I have big spreadsheets where in A column are 3 letter codes (JFK), in some cases they stand alone in one cell and in other cases there can be more of them in cell separated by / (JFK/LGA/HOU,....). Problem is that some codes are duplicated. I need a macro which would be able to check column A for codes which are duplicated and colour them. I have attached example file, so that is easyier to understand how my data looks and what I would like that macro will do for me.

Cells.Replace "OldText", "NewText"
how to independently read this "search" text into a string (hopefully a string that can handle 'more' than 255 characters per cell, even in Excel 2000) then replacing that search text("OldText") with ("NewText") step-by-step?
("OldText" can appear multiple times in one cell)
I am having problems with a macro I wrote that basically fills things in two columns based on a set of values from other columns.
Lets say it looks like this (column B is based on column A):
A1 = Hi
A2 = Hello
A3 = Hi
A4 = Hello
A5 = Hi
A6 = Hello
A7 =
A8 = Hi
A9 = Hello
A10 = Bye
After the macro runs, column B should look like this:
B1 = 10%
B2 = 20%
B3 = 10%
B4 = 20%.............
I have been unable to get this code quite right.
I want to be able to search all of column A for the string "UNAUTH O/D FEE £20.00" and when it is found, add £20 to column B, and 01/01/00 into column D of the same row.
Sub feedate()
Set rd = Sheets("fees")
z = 20
x = 1 / 1 / 6
For i = 1 To rd. Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
If UCase(Cells(i, 1)) = "UNAUTH O/D FEE £20.00" Then
Cells(i, 2).Value = z
Cells(i, 3).Value = x
End If
Next i
End Sub
I know "Instr" find out whether a particular string exits. Can it also tell how many of that particular string appear in a text?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a piece of code that puts certain values in certain cells based on certain criteria. (Vague, I know.)
When the code gets to the part where it puts the first value in the first cell (in a loop), it inserts the value and then the code stops running. Even when I put in "On Error Goto Err" with a msgbox that contains the error description, the code just quietly stops.
Here is a simple macro I wrote to see if maybe the problem had anything to do with something specific to my code. This one fails too, for no apparent reason. Could my file be corrupted or something? What do I do about this?
Code:
Sub rtest()
On Error GoTo err
Sheet2.Range("p4") = "test" 'code stops on first line, whether it is this one or the next every time.
ActiveCell.Value = "test"
ActiveCell.Value = "success"
End
err:
MsgBox err.Description
End Sub
j=1
Do Until b>f
b= Range("B4").Offset(j-1,0).Value
f=Range("F4").Value
j=j+1
Loop
MsgBox j
In the above rather simple loop I noticed that the value of "j" that satisfies condition b>f is one unit more than it is supposed to be. I have this question: when condition is true (b>f), is loop exited right away (ignoring line j=j+1)? OR: is loop exited after the final j=j+1 operation is done?
I'm trying to get something like - If a cell contains certain text AND certain text then display set text OR If a cell contain certain text AND certain text then display set text.
For example:
Vauxhall Corsa 1.5Litre Petrol = vauxhall corsa petrol
Vauxhall Corsa 1.5Litre Deisel = vauxhall corsa Deisel
Vauxhall Nova 1 litre Petrol = vauxhall nova petrol
So it the formula is effectively searching for the car type and the fuel type and then returning the relevant set text. So far I'ver only been able to find IF functions criteria to identify one feature of the text.
I'm thinking it's got to be variation on =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Vauxhall Corsa",A1)),"Vauxhall Corsa Petrol") but there should be something else in there like =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND("Vauxhall Corsa"&"Petrol",A1)),"Vauxhall Corsa Petrol")
I know this is wrong but just trying illustrate my thinking. I need it to pick up vauxhall corsa AND petrol. I understand that I would have to stick a lot of IF functions together in a string, but that is fine as long as I can ask it to pick certain text AND certain text within a cell.
how to Chk the text string in particular cell, compare it with a super set column and get the full from of the text string from another corresponsing column and the output will be corresponsing full form of the chked text string?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a dataset of shifts and want to compare each shift that needs to be filled to a list of requests for time off (vacation, etc).
For one cell the code is: =IF(ISERROR(SEARCH(B1, A1), 0,1)
Where A1 is the column of requests in comma delimited forme (ie: "AB,CD,EF").
Where B1 is the column containing the person assigned to shift 1 (ie: "AB")
In this case, would return a "1" as no error was returned, as AB was found in the list. Here "1" would represent a schedule conflict.
Without creating many cells for each shift- there are 20 shifts- can I create an array or string together this type of "SEARCH" function?
i am using the following formula to extract data quantities of items from a worksheet:
HTML Code: =IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(A9,OS_SALES_ORDERS,3,FALSE)),0,(VLOOKUP(A9,OS_SALES_ORDERS,3,FALSE)))
is there any way i can modify it so that it adds the qtys of the items which have duplicated item nºs?
I've been searching the forums and web trying to figure out how to extract a text value from a 3D array result, to no avail or well beyond my understanding.
I've attached a file which shows an abbreviated version of the search (from the original 49 col x 400 row, which shows the name to date array which can return a sum.
What I'm looking to do is identify within this array result if there has been a text entry, and return the text as opposed to a sum of the remaining values. This is essentially a double check to make certain that there aren't hours scheduled when other events such as vac/loa/etc are also booked.
Cell H1 has a variable string of references for eg
"FI570783AQ3516346EQ3516346FXVB123456"
I want to return the reference beginiing with "FXVA" so it would ignore the rest and only return FXVB123456 - this should always be 10 characters.
Just to add another complication to the mix, there may be 2 "FXVA" references in the string and i want to get both (these can be in the same string so FXVB123456FXEL123456 - but this might not happen regularly.
I am trying to Lookup a country to see if it is classified as a "Developed Country".
My formula would be in cell AA4. I want to see if the country in cell B4 is on a list of developed country's on another worksheet. IF the country is found on that list cell AA4 displays Developed. If the country is not on the list, cell AA4 displays Emerging.
I have tried an IF statement using the Match function and it does not work.
=IF(MATCH(B4,'Developed Country List'!$A$2:$A$37,0), "Developed", "Emerging")
Transferring Multiple Data from separate worksheet without duplicating"
As you can see i am looking for information in column d (Letter) and getting the result to show from column B (number) using the formula in Column G (result 1).
The problem i am having is that if i try to copy or drag the formula down into Result 2 i just get the same answer.
Is there any way for the next cell down to ignore the previous result?
I've created a calendar in VB following the instructions in this link - [url]
The calendar works fine but the problem I've got is I've got unwanted copies of the shortcut when I right-click. If you scroll down the URL, right at the bottom in blue is a paragraph that describes the problem and how to get rid of it. I've tried this numerous times but the duplicate entries keep re-appearing.
I've attached my workbook in the hope that any of you experts would be so kind as to take a look and offer any help or advice on how to fix this problem?

I am aware of the advanced filter feature that shows only unique data - but that still doesn't completely eliminate the duplicated data.
I am looking a program to check if any data be duplicated to avoid any mistakes.
There are many program for duplicate check but they all only compare the cells but not to check the data within any cells one by one.
Is there any program to check the duplicated data in the selected column, columns or cells?

I seem to having a problem with my spreadsheet using Vlookup. It's mainly because on the 1st column, there are items which have duplicates and are differentiated only by the 3rd and 4th column.
example:
1st column:
Bob
Jane
John
Bob
3rd column:
Red
Orange
Purple
Blue
4th Column
1
2
3
4
Basically I'm doing a vlookup and but i want to combine (or sum) the 4th column values of Bob (Red) and Bob (Blue). I know I could use the SUMIF function in order to do what I want but I was wondering if I could nest that function within the vlookup so that it would do it automatically?
I have a workbook that consists of three sheets. One is the "Master", which is were all raw data is entered. The second is a "Criteria" sheet that has a series of dates, which is later reference in my SUMPRODUCT formula and the last is a "Summary" sheet; this sheet basically summarizes all the employee data with multiple criteria. This is the sheet references both the MASTER and the CRITERIA sheets. BTW, I posted a similar thread about this here: Summarize Totals from Multiple Worksheets. I took the advice and started fresh....
My issue is that on the master, there will some employee names that are almost identical which causes problems with my SUMPRODUCT formula. This is the formula I'm using. =SUMPRODUCT((LNAME=$A6)*(DATE_CHK>=Criteria!B$5)*(DATE_CHK<=Criteria!C$5)*(SUM_RNG))
Obviously, there are named ranges. As you can see the first item in the formula references the name (LNAME). This uses the employees last name. The problem is that we have many employees with the same last name so my totals are off. I've attached a sample to better grasp what I'm working with.
In sheet 10 there is a list of hunderd of names with information. The information is download several times a week and is not sorted in any way
Column A - Name of sales agent
Column B - Property Name
Tabs 1-9 represent all the different sales reps
Here is what I want to do (I realize I can sort the data and copy paste but it is pain):
Tab 1
Cell A1 - "John Smith"
Cells A2-A50 I want to list the names of the properties in column B of sheet 10.
Cell A2 would find the first occurence of "John Smith" in column A of Sheet 10 and put in the data from column B.
Cell A3 would find the second occurence of John Smith in column A of Sheet 10 and put in the data from column B
Cell A4-A50 would find occurences 3-50
I'm putting together a database in Excel and there is a particular item that I am having trouble with. I need to count the frequency of occurences in between events over a series of cells.
This:
ABBBAABBAB
Needs to be tracked like this:
ABABAB132211
Basically I need to write it so that when A occurs it counts how many times B occurs immediately after, until the next A. Once that is figured out I should be ok counting double A occurences.
I have 10 cells in a column. I have a drop down list in each that is the same in each. If all 10 cells have the same item selected from the drop down list, I want a separate cell to list Yes or No. I've tried a few variations with no luck.

View 3 Replies View RelatedRemove duplicate but add values.xlsx
I have about 800 records and the the unique identifier are the names. Some owners are repeated several times and they have different values for the EDU column in my project. I need to remove any duplicated owners but I need to add up the values of each record that had value so I can get a combined value for one owner instead of a repeated owner with smaller values. How would I go by doing that? A formula or is there a tool in excel? I am lost on this one. I uploaded a sample file so you can see what I trying to do.
BTW i found if the values are the same for the EDU then I can not add them since it is also duplicated. I can only add up the unique values for the EDU.
