I am trying to use vlookup to locate a cell in another work book. The identifier is in the same workbook as the vlookup formula however the table and column to look within is in another. The identifier will also show up in the other work book where the table resides.
View 4 Repliesi am trying to write some code to analyse a weightlifting movement that occurs 3 times. In particular there is a part of the macro where the user will input the start and end time of the movement using input boxes (to only select relevant data).
I want to then use a vlookup function to search for the start and end times in a range (1 column) in the time range and return the cell reference of these so i can select only these values and either create a graph or do more analysis. My code for this particular part so far looks like:
is there anyway to have a vlookup formula display a blank cell instead of #N/A if the value it was looking for is not found. For example the first spreadsheet contains the persons name say Bob, the 2nd spreadsheet that the vlookup formula is searching does not contain the name Bob right now excel shows #N/A but what I want it to show is a blank cell. I've tried conditional formating to just white out the text if #N/A appears but can't seem to get that to work.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a Vlookup, it returns a number, and when it doesn't find a match it returns N/A, and when it does return a match and the return value cell is blank, it returns 0. Is there any way I can have this so when it doesn't find a match, it returns a blank cell, and when it finds a match and there is no value in the return cell, it returns a blank cell as well, rather than 0?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am struggling with the Vlookup function on Excell 2003. I am trying to lookup data with refernce to two cells to return the data. for example cell A1 = 1 AND cell B1 = 2 then return column 3 data. However I need this in a lookup or something very similar.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a normal VLOOKUP of this loookup range:
A 1
B 2
C 3
D 4
=VLOOKUP(T14,U6:V9,2,TRUE)
If the value in T14 is in the lookup range, I get the expected value returned. If the value exceeds the vlaues in the lookup range (e.g. I enter "E"), I get the last value in the range (4). How do I get it to return a blank cell if the entry in T14 is not found?
I think I am surrounded by trees and can't find the forest, I have a list of tariffs and need to get them to a generic name. The attached file may help, the gist of it is I need to output the generic name for each tariff instead of the supplier name for that tariff.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI tried searching for a solution to my formula problem in this forum regarding vlookup and saw similar formula e.i returning multiple values but it doesn't cater with what I need.
Vlook is returning only the first value but what I need is to return all the multiple return values in 1 cell. I've attached a sample worksheet for reference.
OK for example if i hae this list of data:
Invoice number Order number
111 560
112 561
112 562
113 563
What i need to do is a vlookup from the above table to return the following:
Invoice Number Order number
111 560
112 561, 562
113 563
Traditionally the vookup will return the first value it can match. I can return multiple values on different lines using an array formula but this is not useful.
In the example below I have table array A1:B8. Lookup criteria in cell A11 and want to return MULTIPLE values from column B in cell B11.
I would prefer to not use VBA if possible
A
B
1

This is probably really basic but can anybody tell me how to return the colour of a cell aswell as the content in a vlookup??

Basically its if a1 is found in the other sheets range a1:a100 then return the corresponding Bcolumn value from the different sheet.

I need to compare a string from say A1 to a range of cells in another workbook and if found return the value of a cell on the same row.
Something like - look up string value in A1 in other workbook.sheet1.A1:A65535 if matched return the value of matched row column b.
OR
IF Otherworkbook.sheet1.A20 = A1 return the value of B20
i have a excel 2003 sheet that needs some vlookup formulas
3 columns in total
employee ID Emplyee name Team
i have worked out how to create a dropdown list and return the emplyee name to a cell using vlookup on the emplyee ID column
I have also worked out how to create a dropdown list and return the employee Id to a cell using vlookup on the employee name column
i really want to return all the members of any team into a single cell but when i create a dropdown list it lists multiple entries for example team1 and only returns a single member to my deignated cell

I'm trying to use the VLOOKUP function to return value from a row below.
I have a large list of numbers (sheet Data) for the entire year with 8 different items per week, and I need to create a list for each week with group of 8 unique items as shown on "Week 21" sheet (I did it manually by copy and paste, highlights are just for the example, don't need to be at the original file). After the first 8th rows, it should start over until it gets to the last value on sheet "Week 21".
Basically, Column B on sheet "Week 21" should be statics, and once I change value on column A it should return values as in the example automatically.
For some reason when i run a vlookup, it is only returning the first lookup value for the whole column. Not sure why this is happening.
See attached example. vlookuperror.xlsx
I have a spreadsheet with 2 tabs.
Tab #1 is a complete list of ALL possible pipelines
Tab #2 is a partial list that will ONLY have a pipeline listed if there was activity for the month
I need a Vlookup on Tab#1 that looks up the activity from Tab#2.
However, when a pipeline is NOT populated on Tab #2, I'm getting "#N/A" on Tab#1.
Instead of seeing #N/A - I need it to say "0" so that I can sum the column total.
I tried to look at Error Types...and found that the error type for #N/A is 7, however - I can't figure out how to make the formula work.
I have this formula "=VLOOKUP(B5,$F$254:$G$258,2,FALSE)" I want it to return a "0" when cell B5 is not populated. How could I do that? Right now it returns "#N/A" and messes up my math down the sheet..
View 3 Replies View RelatedBeen working on this problem for a while, I need to have a vlookup (or other function) return locations based off of a concatenate (for unique identifiers). Only issue is that the concatenate formula creates doubles which returns the same location for each vlookup. I have attached an example file.
View 2 Replies View RelatedQ1: In the range for the lookup I'm performing, the column with the possible match is the 2nd column. I've tested my function with this range, but it fails (range is $A$x:$K$x, with possible matches residing in column B). If I change the range so the 1st column has the desired data ($B$x:$K$x), it works. Can I modify the function to search using the 2nd column so I don't have to rearrange the columns in my worksheet?
Q2: Can I return an entire rold of data? If yes, how? I only know how to return one cell.
I have 2 columns of data: Column A is basically postcodes, but just the 1st part and Column B is a #2. If somewhere else on the sheet I type in the postcode IE. SW19 it will show besides it in my lookup the number 2. However if I type in a postcode that is not listed in Column A, I'd like to to return the value 1. I cannot figure this out. My code is:

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a formula that needs to return blanks as blank and 0s as 0. The vlookup formula will return blanks as 0, or I can make it return a blank whenever it is zero (below), but some cells may have a 0 record that need to return 0s, not blank.

I don't even know if using the IF statement is the right function, but anyway. I am using VLOOKUP to complete a supply list, but of course if the supply name isn't on the first spreadsheet then the result is NA. Instead I want it to return 0.
