how to use Array formulas in Excel. I can Sum, Count
etc. I am wondering if you can return an array of data with an array formula
Example:
Name Replied?
Bob N
Brian Y
Robyn N
Rachel Y
From the table above if I test for "N" I'd like the formula to return a list
of names, in this case Bob and Robyn.
I'm trying to use an array to carry out string function on a range of excel cells.
Here is the code I am using
Dim arrXl As Variant
arrXl = ws.Range("F1:F" & ws.Range("D1").End(xlDown).Row)
For i = LBound(arrXl) To UBound(arrXl)
MsgBox (LBound(arrXl))
'If 1st char is different from 3rd char then remove all of string after 1st char
If Left(arrXl(i), 1) <> Mid(arrXl(i), 3, 1) Then
arrXl(i) = Left(arrXl(i), 1)
End If
'If 1st char is different from 7th char then delete string after 5th char
If Left(arrXl(i), 1) <> Mid(arrXl(i), 7, 1) Then
arrXl(i) = Left(arrXl(i), 5)
End If
The lbound function returns the value of 1 as the lower bound, I do not have "Option base 1" set so I was expecting the lbound value to be 0. The first 2 cells in the F column are blank so this may have something to do with it, I am unsure if cells in excel can be null if they can be null one cell may be null and the other may be a zero length string but I am unsure about this.
The ubound function returns a value of 487.
The code breaks when I try to access an element in the array so it breaks on the line:
If Left(arrXl(i), 1) <> Mid(arrXl(i), 3, 1) Then
and returns the "Subscript out of range" error message.
I need to multiply an array of logical results ( returned as {1,0,0,0,1,0 et.}) with a text array (a reference column) and return the text in the reference column in case the value in the logical array is 1.

in VBA this does not seem to be the case.I am trying to use the BlowFish code from David Midkiff for some encryption, however the code sometimes fails:
When encrypting a string a string of a specific length should be returned. however sometimes one of the characters of the encrypted string is a null character, and the returned encrypted string (with a embedded null character) is causing me problems. I want to check for the null character and if present redo the encryption. But how do I check for the presence of this null character in a unicode (double-byte) string?
Checking with Len(encrypted) gives the correct length (!) but trying to move each (unicode)character into an array fails when using the Mid() function past the null character in the string.
Now I can use
byteArray() = StrConv(unicodetext,vbFromUnicode)
to get the lower byte of each character into an array easily, but how do I do this for both bytes of the unicode characters?
Using an integer array does not work other than through
intArray(j) = CInt(AscW(Mid(Outp, j, 1)))
which fails on the nullstring in my encrypted text.
I have tried with variants but so far no luck. I thought if the string was entered into a variant then I could also address the variant as an array of bytes, but that does not seem to be accepted by VBA.

The above code does not work of course and falls over. I am unsure whether I should try and concatenate with something like this eg "" & arrName(i) = Cells (r,c) or go down a different route.
I need to export this to Xcelsius which doesn't support any macros/vba. Btw I can;'t use Row() in xcelsius too.

Since, Match only allows a One-Column lookup array.. is there a way to "concatenate" or "append" the 3 columns together within a formula so now I would be looking to Match in an array that is 1 column * 30 rows?
Basically want to convert =Match(X1,A1:C10,0) to =Match(X1,A1:A30,0) without moving around the raw data in the sheet.
And I want to avoid doing an AND or OR formula that uses 3 separate MATCH() for each column.
I have a hunch that the MMULT or MMULT/TRANSPOSE functions are involved, but can't seem to get it right.
I want to find a number in my array and return the value in column A. Trouble is if the array goes past column R I get the wrong Answer. the formula I am using is

The short version:
(69.1*SQRT(((Shops!$X$2:$X$341-C3)^2)+0.06*((Shops!$Y$2:$Y$341-D3)^2))<=25))) evaluates out to series of 340 True and Falses. I need to be able to pull the nth True, and then somehow index that against AH2:341.
I'm working with a record of 53,000 entries with latitudes and longitudes and I need to cross compare them with 341 locations in the United States.
I've already done some of the heavy lifting, which supported narrow an initial list of 85,000 records to at least recognize which records where within any of the 341 points. (Less arrays makes my computer happy.)
This formula gives me the count of locations each entry is within one of the 341:
=SUM(IF(69.1*SQRT(((Shops!$X$2:$X$341-C3)^2)+0.06*((Shops!$Y$2:$Y$341-D3)^2))<=25,1,0)) {CSE} & copied down 53k times
The actual return range is AH2:AH341 for the location number.
Now, I need to be able to list each of the 341 they are close to. The max count is 17, so I'll only need to list out 17 columns.
Maybe something like =LOOKUP(1,1/(69.1*SQRT(((Shops!$X$2:$X$341-C3)^2)+0.06*((Shops!$Y$2:$Y$341-D3)^2))<=25))),$AH$2:$AH$341)
but this only returns the first match. How do I return the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc?
Because of the sensitive nature of my data, we can use a much simpler array which I'll adapt; I'm mostly trying to understand the logic or formula that should be used.

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have an array with a lot of rows and columns filled with different codes.
I need to look into this array for one specific number and return the value in the same row in an specific column.
I can't use Vlookup in this case because it needs to have the values you are looking for in the first column and my values are spread in different columns.
I have two columns of data, one containing Groups, another containing Items. Like this:
Group | Item
A | Apple
A | Orange
B | Pear
B | Banana
C | Tire
D | Coffee
etc.
On another sheet, I have each of the groups listed as column headings. I want to resort the data and display it in columns instead of in a single list.
I can write a VLOOKUP to search for "B" for example, and return "Pear", but I want to return all matches for "B" not just the first one.
I have a spreadsheet of information (product codes and values) and want to use VBA to find the top ten list of products by value. The list of products is variable in length so I can pass the data to a two-dimensioned array.
How do I ask VBA to return the top ten products by value - there can be duplicate values so I just want ten (if there are 4 #9s, I just want two of them, any two)?
I'm only starting to get to grips with arrays. I have what I consider to be a lot of data that I need to 'cut' into separate workbooks. I have written some code that does this by simply looping through each line, 250k+, checking against a variable and copying the row into a separate sheet. This took longer than it would have doing it manually. It was suggested to me that I use arrays to speed up the process. I have managed to store the test data into an array but am struggling to find a way to loop through and pull out an entire 'row' from the array based on a variable. I have looked for 2 days in various places to find some way to loop through the data held in the array, but to no avail.
That code will appear here from about 8am GMT tomorrow. I know that once I've cracked this I'm on the road to some very significant time saving and comprehensive report writing.
I want to pass an array to Offset in the "Height" parameter, without having to type the array.
{=MAX(SUBTOTAL(9,(OFFSET(A1,ROW(1:5),,{1,2,3,4,5}))))}
I can't seem to figure out how to build the {1,2,3,4,5}. I've tried another ROW(1:5) and have tried nesting that like N(ROW(1:5)) but nothing works.
How I can get the {1,2,3,4,5} without having to type it out (so that I can expand this to a larger list)??
I am trying to filter an array (the longer one) using the shorter array as the criteria. I am currently doing this using the following method
IF(LOOKUP(lookup cell, array)=lookupcell, lookupcell, "FALSE")
I then copy and paste 'values' and filter out the 'false' to get my final result.
This has worked in the past, but for some reason that I simply can't figure out, the formula isnt working! I've attached the example, and I've highlighted a number in blue (cell E522 and C103), (that should be being found in the 'LOOKUP' function) but is returning a "FALSE". I have looked over the code and simply can't figure out why Excel isn't returning the right value.
This is obviously happening for a quite a few of my numbers, as my filter result is returning an array that is about 1500 shorter than it should be. I have highlighted E522 as the 'example cell' to look at.
I have a formula which I took from another post to return a particular value in a specified cell as follows;
=INDEX(A1:E9,M3+MIN(IF(A1:E9=K3,ROW(A1:E9)-3)),N3+MIN(IF(A1:E9=K3,COLUMN(A1:E9)-1)))
However I don't understand what the -3 and -1 does and I believe it is these entries that are causing the error.

I am remodeling my home and have put together a budget template. I have uploaded the file to make things easy to understand. Basically I want to return the values from column F and G on sheet "ledger" to the corresponding account name to column H in sheet "budget". For example, rows 14, 21, and 22 in the "budget" sheet currently correspond to the "fuel" account. I would like those values in column G (or F) to be added and calculated in cell H58 in the "budget" sheet.

I have an Array formula that returns a value from several rows below:
=MAX(IF($P$8:$AQ$8="Today",$P13:$AQ13))
Row 8 contains only text and only one occurrence of the word "Today".
Row 13 has only numbers. The corresponding value directly below the column containing the word "Today" is returned successfully.
I now need a similar formula to return a text entry located in the same column but on the previous row (row 12) directly above the value just returned and this row contains only text entries.
Using the above formula and referencing $P12:$AQ12 returns 0 as expected.
I seem to be incapable of creating an array to return all of the values in each of the cells in the first row so that I can populate a combo box. I managed to do it without a problem for copying the sheet names within a workbook but not for this and I want to bang my head against the wall!
Basically, I have the first row of my spreadsheet for which I don't know how many columns contain data so my range is variable.
I then need to take the value of each cell and add it to my combo box (Later I would also like to use this routine to create and append sheets in other workbooks).
I have an array that is 60x100 (column x row).
I'm trying to search for a value in that array and return the value on the same row, but shifted to the right one column.
Example: If my value is found in D63, I want to return the value in E63.
I've been messing with Index, Match, and Offset, but I can't get anything working.
I have a grid like follows (how to format):

Basically I want to return an array (to pass to another function) containing all data that matches my search. E.g. I want to retrieve an array of the data that matches 2013-09-20. Is the only way to do this a VBA func?
I need a look-up function that can return a value from an array that can be 3 to 7 rows in height. I want the function to always look at the last row in the array.
This is how it looks:
Column A Column B
blank row
1000
A
B
C
SUM 15
blank row
In this case I want the function to return 15 if I search for 1000. The problem is that there are not always a fixed number of rows beneath the searched value.
Range A1:A10 contains no formulas, only constants.
Only one constant value at most would ever be in that range, sometimes nothing in that range.
The value might be text like "Tom", or it might be a number like "1234".
The value could be in any of the 10 cells.
So far, and this is where the "missing something obvious" part comes in, I have only seen array solutions such as
=INDEX(A1:A10,MATCH(TRUE,A1:A10"",0))
My question is, can this result be achieved with a non array / non sumproduct formula.
I need to do this for 6000 cells in a project, that's the design and that's the way it is. I don't want that many arrays in the workbook. I already did this with VBA so I am not asking for a VBA or UDF solution, just hoping to know from the formula wizards what a non-array formula could be that returns the first found (and in this case only-existing) constant value in a range.
how I can return the largest letter from an array of letters? e.g. if the array is "A,B,C,D,H,K,L,O,P", the value returned would be P. Kind of like a MAX function, but for letters instead of numbers.

I looked for a way to represent my data in a cleaner way than this but couldn't find any tools....a point in the right direction would be helpful. I guess the old plug-in that converted Excel->HTML isn't available?
Column A is a finished product and B-D are the ingredients to make it however values in Column A are also ingredients (sometimes multiple times). I want a formula that searches for values in Column A within the table B1:D5 and returns an array, if possible, of the finished products where Column A was used.
For example, searching for Sugar would return "Flour, Water". Searching for Water would return "Milk, Eggs" (I'd rather not have Milk listed twice but beggars can't be choosers).
