I tried a few searches for what I need but I think my wording might be off or there isn't anything on it yet. So the formula I'm looking for is: I have a single colum of say 700 rows with random values in each. I would like to average rows 1 to 15 then 2 to 16 then 3 to 17.... all the way through to 686 to 700. Now out of all that I need only the highest 15 period average value returned. Seemed simple until I tried to do it. Whats that saying, the idea is 1% of the invention..
I'm looking for a formula to enter within a particular cell which will return the largest number that appears within a range of cells, for example the range H:133 through L:136. If it's any easier, only one number will appear within the range, though it could appear in any cell within that range.
I have a named range which refers to: =MATCH(LARGE($G$5:$G$68,ROW(G5)-4),G$5:G$68,0)+4. It is supposed to find the largest figure in the adjacent column, list its row in cell H5, then the second largest for cell H6 and so on until the end of the data. The data in column G is dynamic and some cells will contain "0" with certain sections of data thus why I need a formula and cannot just use sort each time.
My problem is that when I use the formula as a named range I get "#N/A" and when I evaluate the formula I will get the answer but in array brackets (e.g.{17}) before the final step turns it to "#N/A". The formula will work fine if inputted directly into the cell but as the same formula will be used over three columns and numerous rows I would much prefer to use a named range.
I have lists of numbers in a columns and would like to elliminate high outlier values in each column. Each list is different so there's no way to just set a max value and say that any value above it is an outlier. What I'd like to do is to average the top 5 or so max values for example, and then say that any vale above this average is an outlier. So a formula such as =average (max1,max2,max3,max4,max5) would work if it's possible to derive max1, max2 and so on. Or maybe there's a different way of accomplishing this?
I am trying to subtract the highest number from a row of numbers then find the average for the remaining numbers in Excel 2003, as: =SUM(B2:E2)-MAX(B2:E2)AVERAGE(B2:E2).
I'm using this formula to look up a certain value in "overview" sheet, is there a way to not show the result in this cell but show as result the cell in the same column in row 3?
In the attached sheet there is a list of horse runs in time order with the latest at the bottom..col C contains the rating for each run. I need a formula to fill down col d and e. Col d is to contain the rating of its previous run and column e the rating of its second last run. for example row 21 ..I have filled in manually Autumn charms last run had a rating of 116 and its second last run was 122..filled in in cell e21. if a horse has not ran(is now shown previously..above in column e..just leave the cols d and e blank...
I've a column that contains numerical values. In my vba code, I have to select a block of cells at a time and get the row which has the maximum value. One lame approach I am doing is wasting another column that extracts the max from the block of cells using Excel's Max function, and then doing a iterative search in the numerical column to get the cell tht contains the max value, and from it get the row number
Is there a better way such tht i can avoid the looping?
so in a nutshell, i want to get the row number from a range of cells that contains the maximum value
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 am trying to use the Large function to pull out First, second and third highest values in an array. problem is with ties and zeros it returns the wrong value.
I have a table with subtotals that I need to find the largest value for the subtotal results and then return the cell contents for the corresponding row.
I have attempted to use the hlookup function, but keep getting a #ref error (probably because I am just not that familiar with the entire formula requirements).
I attempted to nest in the 'largest' function to the lookup function, but have so far been stymied....
I would like to be able to find the largest visible area of continuous rows in a filtered table. I know one possible way would be to loop through visible cells using the "xlCellTypeVisible" property and count cells in each visible area. However, the data is consisted of tens and sometimes hundreds of thousands of rows so I was wondering if there is a faster, more efficient way to do this.
I want to identify the column heading for the first, second and third most popular courses. ie for School1 the most popular course is Maths, second most popular is English and so on.
I have tried using the OFFSET function, which worked if I provided the cell location of the required value. I then looked at the ADDRESS function to provide the cell location: eg For School2 find the 2nd most popular course:
I am trying to get the addresses of different cells containing numbers. This addresses should be ranked by the size of the value from largest to smallest. Currently I am using this formula
and just increasing the variable of the LARGE function for every rank. This works fine up to the point some numbers are the same. If I have for example two cells containing a 80 and 80 is the largest value, rank 1 and 2 result in the same address (of the first cell containing the 80). But I want the formula to result in specific addresses for every number. I thought about using MAX instead of LARGE, but I don't get a working solution for the second (third, fourth, ...) largest value.
I am looking for a formula that will output the highest and lowest value in a range. Column A contains a range of numbers, some of which repeat and in column B i'd like to extract ONE instance of the highest and lowest value in Column A, preferable the last instance.
See example below and in column B the desired output.
I am having some data running into 60 (C:BJ) columns and 200 rows. It is the record of dates query raised and answered with refernce to query number in the A coulmn. I have zero value as entry for the unused cells in this range due to some constraints. I need to find the smallest and the largest non-zero date in this range for analysis purpose. I plan to use the difference between these 2 dates to calculate turn around time for a query.
Problem is to find the smallest and the largest non zero date within range C6:BJ6 which would be used as input in the Networkdays formula.
I need to create a macro that will examine a range of cells, for example D12:T12, find the cell with the largest number value in that range then set the font for that cell to bold (or red, or change the cell background color).
I have a set of data like below, I am trying to get a formula to look at a range i.e. May column and then select the highest number in that range but rather than returning the number returning the team name, is that possible? Not sure where to start...
I'm trying to create a formula that that returns an average value if two conditions are met. No luck here.

I have one Row that houses numbers 80-90 in seperate cells (11 columns A20: K20) - these are my Numeric Labels.
I then have several other Rows that span the same number of columns as the Numeric Labels (A21:K100) and house Numeric Values that relate to the Numeric Labels.
I would like to AVERAGE the Numeric Values in each Row and have a Numeric Label (value) that corresponds to the calculated average returned as the result.
I'm trying to write a formula to return the AVERAGE by calendar quarter, IF the quarter has ended. For instance, IF Jan = 5, Feb = 20, Mar 5, Average would be 10. But, if Mar was 0 (only meaning no activity) I still need it to calculate.
The formula I started with is - =IF(A1=0,0,AVERAGE(A1:A3)
This works only if cells A1:A3 have a value greater than 0. How can I write the formula so that as long as A3 is not blank that it will return the AVERAGE?
I have a workbook with two sheets. The first has a list of job positions open, columns designated to stages in the employment process and in these columns, my staff enter the dates that they completed a particular stage.
This has a great number of entries and they are increasing and decreasing every day depening on the amount of jobs available.
On the second sheet, I am trying to set up a table which shows the average working days it is taking to complete each stage, divided into the months in which the job position was opened (i.e. for positions opened in january, the average completion working days for stage 1 was X amount of days etc...)
I have tried using =IF(AND(Logical, Logical),TRUE,FALSE) but this doesn't return any info as the logicals will always be false. I tried the OR function, but that requires only one of the criteria to be true to return a value. What I need is for the formula to return a number of days between two dates, ONLY if the opened date falls in one month.
