Return A List Of Unique Matches
Nov 27, 2006
I need to return all the unique matches from a set of data.
For example, when a product is selected, I need to list all the possible venues it is sold from. I will use this venue list to populate my drop-down listbox, as opposed to having a 100 venues in the list, I just wish to have the applicable ones.
Example of data set I need to lookup in:
prod 1 venue1
prod 2 venue 2
prod 1 venue 3
prod 1 venue 10
prod 2 venue 6
I would like to use a formula if I can (not a macro), to list that prod 1 is only sold in venue 1,3, 10.
It would be great if one could use a vlookup type of formula and it could return a list of each occurence of the look-up'ed cell.....

is it possible to have a cell return all matches from a list and have the list of matches reduce as you type, then be able to select one item from the list? this is a typical feature on internet sites, but can it be done in Excel?

In my spreadsheet, on the first worksheet called "Working". Column A, called "Results", contains carrot ^ delineated string values in each cell (i.e."john^apple^pear^banana^grape^love^heart^pickle"). The majority of string values in every cell in my "Results" column match a "source" column of Pick-List Values, called "Fruits" in the same spreadsheet, however found in a different worksheet called "Lists" (also in Column A). I want to perform 3 functions against my "Results" Column on worksheet "Working":
1.) Report In Column B: Analyze column "Results" by cell and return carrot delineated string values for only those that match my "Fruits" Pick-List
2.) Report In Column C: Analyze column "Results" by cell and return carrot delineated string values for only those do not match my "Fruits" Pick-List
3.) Report In Column D: Identify and return all unique values in "Column C" as a List.
Attached is a simple example of what I'm trying to accomplish called " Sorting.xls"

I would like to return a unique list of values in column b sheet2 IF the value in Data!A is equal to A1 on sheet2.
I tried doing if formulas and v lookup formals but they dont give a unique list or only include in instance of the associated value.

product1

product3
I want to do a lookup and return to a new list just the unique entries, such as this:
product1
product3
product7
I have it working now using a pivot table to get me the unique items, but there must a be a more efficient function to do this.

Column A = numerical IDs, multiple entries, may have duplicates that should only be counted once in comparison
Column B = numerical IDs, multiple entries, may have duplicates that should only be counted once in comparison
Need: 1 cell that compares all of the A range to all of the B range and returns a a percentage of repeats. So, if there are 50 entries in A, and only 40 are unique, and B includes 10 repeats (unique, not multiple), then the returned value would be 25%.

Have numerous values in Col A. Col E extracts a list of unique values from that column.
In Col C, the Col A value has had characters added to it.
Need a formula to count the number of unique values from Col C which contain the same prefix from Col A, and place the result in Col F.
A sample workdook is attached with the desired result shown and highlighted in yellow.

1) Check to see if a value in column A of worksheet A appears in column A on worksheet B.
2) If it DOES, then display the value from the same row from column B on worksheet B, in column B on worksheet A.
3) If it DOESN'T, display the value "EACH" in column B on worksheet A.

I'm looking for a Formula in order to retrieve all addresses of all matches equal to the search criteria located in cell: E2
The results are hand-typed in col. G
This is a case of a TWO-DIMENSIONAL "Arbitrary Lookup" Arbitrary.
The range A1:C10 was named: TBL and the formula should refer to TBL as it can be dynamic in size.
PS: can anybody tell me why I don't get any E-Mails when an answer is posted?

I have the following formula which, if text is in A1, will lookup from a list of worker's comp codes to locate the code in A2 and return the wording for that
=IF(ISTEXT(A$1),VLOOKUP(A$2,Codes!$B$3:$C$720,2),"")
However, if there is not an exact match to the code in A2, it returns the wording for the next closest code.
Is there a way to make it so that it will only return the wording for the exact match and return "invalid code" if the number in A2 is not found on the list on the "Codes" sheet?

I have a produced an Excel workbook which uses a VBA sign in/out userform.
Once you sign in on the Userform the sheets update. A list is completed of the times people enter and leave.
To make the code easier I currently have the name being returned to the excel sheet and performing a “match” function to return the row number. This row number is then used to carry out what I need to happen in this row. However, as you can see from attached doc (and the brief example below), based on IDnumber "2", the match function returns row 5 not row 8.
I need to have the row number returned for the IDnumber where the Out cell is blank.
This should be the last occurrance of the IDnumber
Example
Row
1 ID# In Out
2 1 9:00 13:00
3 4 9:00 13:00
4 3 9:00 13:00
5 2 9:00 13:00
6 5 9:00 13:00
7 6 9:00 13:00
8 2 14:00

I have two columns, one with the target text (D:D) and one with text I want to compare it too (A:A). If the text in column (D:D) matches the one in (A:A), I want to return the value in (B:B). I attached a sample of the problem i'm dealing with.

Basically, I have a huge list of addresses with ID numbers, and a list without the ID numbers. An example would be;
2-10 (evens), test road, ID123.
I need to identify if the address is on the street, is in that block of flats (i.e between 2-10, and even number), and then return the ID.
I've already split the number between two cells, but then its all gone a bit wrong.

I've been looking through past threads and I can't find what I need to do anywhere. There was one formula that came close: =SUMPRODUCT((A2:A100="Aimbry")*(B2:B100="LW")*(C2: C100)). but this adds up all the matching results.
What I need to do is match the info in columns A and B and return a number in column C. The problem is that there are multiple rows with identical entries and I just want to return one of them. So I was thinking a version of the above that produced a mode or average would give the desired result.

I have two separate workbooks, each with a great deal of information, such as name, ssn, dates, statuses, etc. I would like to compare the SSN column for both workbooks, and when it finds a match (which there would be many) to copy the MOS cell from the same row to the other workbook. Here is my breakdown with names:
Workbook 1: Macros.xls
Workbook 2: MASS 162.xls
The SSN column is column C in both workbooks
When there is a match found between the SSN column in Macros.xls and the SSN column in MASS 162.xls, I need to copy the MOS cell (column E) from the MACROS.xls workbook to the MASS 162.xls workbook into the same row, but in column M, which is currently empty.

Lets see if I can put this into words.
I am trying to find matches of a specific cell in various columns. Example:
Header 1 -------Header 2----------Header 3
-ABC123-----------abc123--------------abd123
-abd123-----------hjk321---------------hdn234
-Abc123-----------dsd123--------------sds332
If I searched for the value "abc123" I want it to return Headers 1 and 2 in a seperate column. It would not matter if the same value is in one column multiple times
So the results would show me the Column Heading for anything that reads: "abc123", "ABC123", "AbC123", "aBC123"
Is this possible?

I have a list with 8 columns. In the majority of instances, Columns A & B will have duplicate information. I need to be able to search columns A & B & return the information from them PLUS all info contained on the same row's from columns C/D/E/F/G & H. EG:...
My column headings are as follows...
Type Region Contact Phone Email ADD1 ADD2 ADD3
In column A (type) would be the type of contact eg:business/personal/family etc.
So... If looking for family I'd need excel to show me the region, contact, phone, email, add1, add2 & add3 for each family record. Hope this makes sense!
There are over 1000 records i need excel to search through & return matches.
I'm an intermediate excel user at best so finding it complicated. Tried vlookup but that stops when it finds a match & anything else seems over my head.

I've got two worksheets ("June" & "July"). On both worksheets, column A is comprised of ID numbers and column B contains dollar amounts. I need to compare the ID numbers in Column A on each worksheet, and if they match I want to copy the ID number and the amount to a third worksheet ("Results").

I can solve my problem with a pivot table, and with VBA easily...however, I'm interested in knowing if this can be done with formulas (array formulas using index/match I'm assuming).
Goal: On sheet1 I have one column with products, then the column next to it will have an "Y" in it if the product is to be selected (blank if not). On sheet2 I want to create a list of the products that were selected (having the "Y"). The only thing stumping me is that I do not want spaces between the product list on sheet2...just a nice continuous list. Example:
Sheet1
cup Y
bowl Y
spoon
fork
knife Y
Sheet2
cup
bowl
knife
..not..
cup
bowl
knife

Each product is represented by a serial number (column A).
The can be sorted on column A from smallest to largest prior to calculating results if that helps.
The repair list contains 1 entry per spare part used, so the same serial number may occur several times.
Furthermore, a product may have been repaired on several instances - so the serial numbers can span several dates (column B).
The solution i am looking for should return the number of unique repair dates per serial number. That way i can see, how many times each product has been repaired. Results can be displayed in an individual column.
Sample list:
Serial........Repair date

I have a chart of accounts that is probably 30,000 accounts long. I have another list with say 500 accounts. I need to check to see if the 500 accounts exist anywhere in the 30,000 accounts. The next step is, the 30,000 accounts is separated into different categories, so say it's 30 blocks of 1000 accounts. I need to check the 500 list in each of the blocks. I'm just trying to see which accounts are missing from the 30000. So if they exists in each block then all is good, if they don't, we have problems.

I have a large table that gives me the intersection points of many lines. I have used conditional formatting to highlight the intersection points that match by turning the text red, thus showing me when 3 or more lines intersect. Manually scanning the whole table is inefficient as I wish to expand it.
Due to size limitations, I've uploaded a shortened version of the workbook, just a copy with one example of a match.
How do I get excel to locate the matches (currently highlighted with red text) and list them in column I "Intersections" all neatly sorted?
I thought Advanced Autofilter but I don't think the criteria range can search for red text alone.

Macro that would copy a row if the value is found in separate list. For example, in column B of sheet "223" I have values. In another sheet "DATA" I have a list of values, which if these values match the value in column B of sheet "223" it would copy the entire row from "223" to another tab "output".

i am trying to do a lookup on a data column (B) which contains time data on a worksheet which is a constantly growing list from a DDE data link macro- the data i want returned is in column A,
so for example
column A, column B
0.8970 13/02/2008 21:58
0.8965 13/02/2008 21:58
0.8990 13/02/2008 21:58
0.8995 13/02/2008 21:59
0.8982 13/02/2008 21:59
0.8983 13/02/2008 21:59
i am looking for the highest and lowest values where the time matches a certain hour of the day, so where another cell on the worksheet 1 equals 22, do a lookup on all the rows which is in time 22:00 and return the max no in column A (0.8983),
and the min in another cell(0.8977)
think my limited excel skills are not up to it i'm afraid despite searching through the forums and trying out a few lookup and max combos as array formulas.

I am looking for a way to check for the presence of a member of a list in a field. Not for an exact match, but for the text to be somewhere present. I know I can use the "search" function to find text within text, but I don't see how to find the presence of any member of a range of values (a list) within the text.

I have two sheets that need to have unique partial matches aligned side by side. My first sheet is my database. The righter most column of this sheet contains a unique combination of letters and numbers.
My second sheet contains a single column which I export each month from our CMS and is a list of URLs. Within each of these URLs appears the unique set of letters and numbers from sheet 1 (and only appears once).
There are about thrice as many URLs in sheet 2 as there are entries in my sheet 1 database.
Ideally, I would like the URL from sheet 2 that contains the unique combination from sheet 1 to be pasted in the cell immediately to the right of the given unique combination.
However, I will settle for a list of trues and falses next to the URLs in sheet two that I can erase the falses, sort and paste next to the sorted list from sheet 1.
