I've found Nth_Occurrence and it's frankly brilliant but I need to be able to return the occurrence number of a value in a range and it doesn't quite do what I need.
Using = COUNTIF(A$1:A1,A1) gives me exactly the answer I need but as I'm working with big ranges it's taking a lot of calculation time.
Is there a way to build a formula that looks up the first record in a table that has a value of A and X? Value =A Value=X. The next formula would would then return the next record that was a value of A with a value of x that was greater than or equal to 4?
Table
1 A x
2 A
3 A x
4 A
5 A x
The 1st formula would return a value of 1.
The 2nd formula would return a value of 5.
I have a list of dates in column AF. I would like to retrieve a value from the 2nd occurrence of a date, so I used the function for the Nth Occurrence on this website as follows:
Function Nth_Occurrence(range_look As Range, find_it As String, _
occurrence As Long, offset_row As Long, offset_col As Long)
Dim lCount As Long
Dim rFound As Range
Set rFound = range_look.Cells(1, 1)
For lCount = 1 To occurrence
Set rFound = range_look. Find(find_it, rFound, xlValues, xlWhole)
Next lCount
Nth_Occurrence = rFound.Offset(offset_row, offset_col)
End Function
The excel formula I am using is as follows: =Nth_Occurrence(AF2:AF622,AE2,2,0,1)
Where AE2 is the date I am looking up. My question is this: When I put in a date ("1/12/2007") instead of AE2, i get the correct value. I tried giving AE2 and the AF column the same date formatting (3/14/2001), but this doesn't work. The date I am searching for also changes, so I cannot just type the date into the excel formula.
What Formula will return the above request (Preferable as "simple" as possible) ...
View 13 Replies View RelatedI'm getting an export from a CDR. This export contains the date and times people log on and off from a queue. For logging in they dial 511, for logging out they dial 512. They get a voice prompt and type their password. I need to know how much time they daily spend in this queue
At first this looks pretty easy. I just make a sum of all the times they called to 511, then a sum of all time they called to 512 and finally I substract those values and I end up with the correct time spend in the queue.
The problem comes when they call multiple times to 512 without actually logging off. For example, they type the wrong password or simply hang up.
Result is this in the CDR
FROM TO DATE TIME
101 511 23/12 08:34
101 512 23/12 11:58
101 511 23/12 12:34
101 512 23/12 14:45
101 512 23/12 14:47
101 512 23/12 15:00
The actual time spend in the queue is 5 hours and 50 minutes. But Excel calculates this as 35 hours and 22 minutes, because it counts the 512 values no matter what.
How can I make sure that Excel only calculates the values of they are either the last value in the row OR if they are preceded by 511?

I have a very very long weekly table of, say, sales regions, items sold, revenue, profitability, etc.
(Very long here means 120,000 rows, and in Excel 2007 - please don't hold this against me! )
Let's assume Row 1 and Column A are for headers. So Column B is Sales Region and Column C is Item Name. The first Sales Region, beginning in B2, let's call it "America", will repeat (B3, B4....) until the Item Names are done for that region. Then the next Region starts, "Australia", and the list of Items starts again, etc.
Not all the Items will be sold in every Region each week, and even some Regions may disappear from the table one week only to reappear a few weeks down the road. The table is Sorted alphabetically, though, first by Region, then by Item.
One way to VLOOKUP week over week information from last week's report onto this week's report is to concatenate both weeks' Region and Item information (=B2&C2) seperately, and VLOOKUP by that. This returns only combinations of Region/Item that occured in the current week, and with ISERROR, 0 for combinations that occured this week, but not last week. As far as what it returns, this is fine for our purposes but with several pieces of information to VLOOKUP (#, revenue, profit, etc.) and 120,000 rows, it takes forever. Literally over an hour to copy down the week over week parts.
I had the idea that maybe it would be faster if I could define individual VLOOKUP ranges for each Region, and then look up Item within that range. These ranges would vary in placement in the table and in numbers of rows each week, as the number of Items sold in each Region waxes and wanes, hence "dynamic ranges" - I hope I've used that term correctly.
Is there an effective, efficient way to return the row numbers of the first and last instances of a given Region, and use that range for the Item VLOOKUP?
accomplish VLOOKUP for multiple instances of a same Lookup value
First let me explain about my file:-
Table~1:-
1.B2:B19 I have list of items which required to build a product
2.D2:D19 I have list of shortages against each item
3.C2:C19 I have list of dates when each item shortage will get fulfilled
Table~2:-
1.C22:C31 I have picked the largest 10 different dates from Table1 by using LARGE formula.
Against each date which is update C22:C31, respective shortage qty has to get VLOOKUPED.
When there is a same lookup value, it has to keep pick next value (Shortage Qty) for same date.
Is there anyway that the UDF can remove duplicates? It's not a huge problem, but would make things a bit easier.

I need to know how to create a drop down menu from a very large spreadsheet of Column A but have it only return 1 occurrance. NOT in VBA.
Example:
Column A - these are different Value Streams PMV, SMV and WRV but this will show up over 100 times each as there are many departments per Value Stream I would only like to see 1 occurrance
Column B - Is a list of departments per value stream but will have duplicate departments Example: PMV - PM9, PMV - PMA, PMV - PMB
I would like to have a drop down and be able to select from the three value streams (Column A) and it return one occurrance then the departments that correspond with the Value Stream (Column B).
I am working with a data sheet that holds a cell containing a number of position entries with each entry separated by a carriage return within the cell. I need to determine the entry associated with Accountant. The formula below determines if the entry Accountant exists and if so, displays 14 characters of information starting after the 12th character. The entry after "Accountant" is variable, but will have a carriage return at the end of the line. How can I identify the placement of the carriage return after the Accountant: entry?
=IF(ISERR(FIND("Accountant:",'Dynamic Report - WIP HDCI-Qu~01'!G7)),"",MID('Dynamic Report - WIP HDCI-Qu~01'!G7,FIND("Accountant:",'Dynamic Report - WIP HDCI-Qu~01'!G7)+12,14))
I have multiple automatically updating data sets and I need to extract certain data to perform calculations on, this is the format of the data
SPLIT AB H 2B 3B
HOME 20 6 1 0
AWAY 20 7 2 0
SPLIT R HR RBI
HOME 2 0 1
AWAY 3 1 4
basically, what I need is to extract the data for home and away, and put them each on one line, no problem if this is always the format, but there are other lines of data that I don't need thrown in there at times which shift the data up or down
a simple vlookup will extract the first occurance of home, but I need another formula to extract the second occurance so I can have them all on one line and have the data as:
SPLIT AB H 2B 3B R HR RBI
HOME 20 6 1 0 2 0 1
AWAY 20 7 2 0 3 1 4
Is there a way to have a formula search an entire row containing certian text, for example "x" and have the formula return the letter of the first column that text is found?

I'm trying to extract all the numbers from the left of the delimiter ":" . They can occur once or more.
E.g. cell F2 contains BP2.2.1:40 BP2.2.1:50 BP2.2.1:60 BP2.2.1:70 BP2.4.1:80
and what i want as a result is : BP2.2.1 BP2.2.1 BP2.2.1 BP2.2.1 BP2.4.1.
I've tried =IFERROR(LEFT(F2,FIND(":",F2)-2), " ") but only displays 1 out of a possible 4 in the cell.
I have a value in $ED$1. This is Value X.
Row A = $DO$7:$DV$7
Row B = $DO$10:$DV$10
[Formula location = $EE$1]
Where Value X occurs in Row A, l want to return the parallel cell in Row B.
Both rows are sorted in numerical order. There is a slight complication though: Row A might contain multiple occurrences of Value X. If Value X is repeated several times in Row A, I want to find the left-most occurrence of Value X in Row A, i.e. the one closer to Column DO.
I have this vlookup formula and as you can see when I run it works good. The only problem is that I would like to have formula that it something is not found I don't get #N/A , but rather a 0 or blank.

Column A lists types of employees (managers, engineers, sales reps, etc.), each of which earns a seperate hourly rate. Column C lists hours worked, and Column D lists the total pay (Cx*Bx).
So column B is missing. Is there a way to generate the hourly rates in column B for each employee type in collumn A, i.e. if it's an Engineer, return $29, if it's a Technician, return $18, without an infinite set of True/Fasle conditions.
I have two files with the below data:
File A
Bob Jones
Williams, K.
File B
Jones, Bob
Williams, Ken
The only commonality between the two files is the last name. I can easily separate the last name off File B, since it is always 'last name, first name'. I want a lookup formula to use the last name from File B (after I separate it), lookup to File A, and if it finds a cell in a specified column that contains the same last name, return data from another column within File A.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy Lookup formula gives back N/A rather than an empty cell. I was unable to find the solution in frequently asked questions. Everything points to using VLookup which I feel doesn't fit my situation as I am only looking at one row of text.
The length of my targeted range changes so I am wanting to use the lookup for an extra amount of rows to ensure I capture all the data at any given time. Once my lookup gets to the end of the list and finds a blank cell i get back N/A. I tried to include "" in my formula to combat this but it isn't working. I have been using IF statements elsewhere on my sheet but there are 30 arguments and I was forced to find an alternative.
This is an abridge version of my formula:
=LOOKUP(Data!A2,{"","0129","0133","0163","0167","0187","0197","0202","0212"},{"","0201-0129","0205-0133","0201-0163","0213-0167","0201-0187","0216-0197","0212-0202","0217-0212"})
