I've a two column dataset with one column for person name and one column for sales.
I'm trying return the nth largest value where the person name equals the value in a referenced cell.
My dataset may grow or shrink over time so I'm trying to avoid array formula.
Basically I'm looking for something like the below that actually works.
Worksheet 1: In column A I have a people's initials. In coumn B I have text boxes with miscellaneous text. (The same person could have multiple rows within this sheet.)
e.g.
AAA blue
BBB orange
AAA round
CCC smelly
AAA elongated
Worksheet 2 I want to show:
A2 = initials, B2 = first text box associated with that person, C2 = second text box (different row) associated with that person (if applicable), D2 = third text box (different row) associated with that person (if applicable), etc.
e.g.
AAA blue round elongated
BBB orange
CCC smelly
=LARGEST(overview!$AB5:$AL5;11)
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...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'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
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..
View 4 Replies View Relatedhow 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.

Colum 1 is the date of the flight
Colum 2 is the aircraft type
Each row is one flight
I tried lots of things (IF, LARGE, MAX, SOMPRODUCT,...) but nothing works.
i have a file (attached) with a price for zone and weight. I want to look up the zone, look up thge weight and return the correct price.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using the LOOKUP function to find the largest number and then return the name from a different column, it looks like this:
=LOOKUP(LARGE(round1!$F$2:$F$65,1),round1!$A$2:$A$65)
but all I get is hashN/A?
I'm looking for a formula to enter within a particular cell which will return the largest number that appears within a range of cells, for example the range H:133 through L:136. If it's any easier, only one number will appear within the range, though it could appear in any cell within that range.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a named range which refers to: =MATCH(LARGE($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 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.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI would like to return the value in column D (Store Name) that corresponds to the Max value in column N (Units Still Required). However, this Max value must meet certain criteria. That is, the State (column J) and Style Code (column Q) must be the same as that of the row being considered.
I have tried the below formula, and it appears to work the majority of the time, however, occassionally it does not adhere to the criteria (i.e. same State and Style Code).
For example in cell M7:
=IF(L7=0," ",INDEX(D$7:D$999,MATCH(MAX((IF((J:J=J7)*(Q:Q=Q7),N:N))),N$7:N$999,0)))
CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER
I have a spreadsheet with multiple columns and rows of data. I want to be able to type in a criteria and all the rows containing the criteria are called up. For example
Col A Col B Col C
Row 1 Apple Fruit 12
Row 2 Banana Fruit 15
Row 3 Carrot Veg 13
I want to have a cell on another sheet in which I can place a criteria, eg Fruit, and then the entire row 1 and 2 are displayed on the second spreadsheet.
I have a data set where I am trying to find the nth largest value based on one criteria? How would one use do this using the large function?
Example:
Dept. Name / Widgets
ABC / 10
ABC / 8
XYZ / 9
ABC 7
ABC / 3
XYZ / 4
If I need the third most widget production of Dept ABC, the formula return 7.
I wanted to present the 10 largest numbers from a list (P4:P104) only if they had the words Tauck or Collette in C4:C104
When I have that list I will also need to present the supplier name which is listed in A4:A104
I used this formula to get the 10 largest first
=SUMPRODUCT(--(Data!C4:C104="TAUCK")--(Data!C4:C104="COLLETTE"),LARGE(Data!P4:P104,ROW()-ROW(A$6)))
I have 3 columns. In 1st there is a name of the product.In 2nd there are different types of product (6 in total) and in the 3rd column a figure attributed to the correspondend type of product. I need to create a summary for every type. For this I want to show the 5 largest figures(based on the name of product) for every type.
Like this:
AAA GK 40
BBB CD 50
CCC FD 55
DDD GK 60
EEE FD 70
.....
How would I return a cell reference (address) to a cell that contains the largest number in a list?
I tried using "Address(large....) where I get the correct column, but the returned row # is the actual value in the cell (the highest # in the list).
I eventually will want to delete the highest number to leave the cell blank.
I have attached a very simple model of a much larger BI report that we use. I have written a DSUM that returns the correct result in all cases other than when one of the criteria columns is blank. When one or more columns is blank, the result returned is 0 whereas I need it return all data (for e.g. if you remove "sains" from cell B2, I need it to still return data for person "b", "c" and "d" (i.e. 51 for Mar14)).

I'd like to extract the data from Sheet 2 (Data) that falls within the selected date range but the formula I've entered in F$9 (see below) is giving me an error
=IF(ROWS(A$9:A9)>$A$5,"",INDEX(Data!A$2:A$387,SMALL(IF((Data!$A$2:$A$320>=$A$2)*(Data!$A$2:$A$320<=$B$2)*(Data!$B$2:$B$320=$C$2),ROW(Data!$A$2:$A$334)-ROW(Data!$A$2)+1),ROWS(A$9:A9))))

I have been working on a variation of this for a long time and I cannot get it to work.
I am trying to depending on the textbox selection get the proper ROW from DEALLIST to show up.
I have a spreadsheet with several hundred line items that I basically want a summary of.
STRINGS CRITERIA OTHER
string1 criteria1 other2 <---disregard because of other2
string1 criteria2 other1
string1 criteria2 other1 <---disregard because it is a duplicate
string2 criteria3 other1
string2 criteria3 other1 <---disregard because it is a duplicate
string2 criteria2 other2 <---disregard because of other2
string3 criteria1 other1
string3 criteria1 other1 <---disregard because it is a duplicate
I need the formula to return the value in STRINGS & CRITERIA, but I do not want it listing duplicates.
-I need the summary list on a separate sheet
-STRINGS, CRITERIA, and OTHER are all strings
-STRINGS are in alphabetic order
-CRITERIA are listed in groups with regard to their STRING, but not necessarily alpha-order
-OTHER are not in any particular order, but there are only two choices for OTHER
-OTHER: if OTHER=other2, it should not be listed in the results
RESULT
STRINGS CRITERIA
string1 criteria2
string2 criteria3
string3 criteria1
I have been trying this for hours but to no avail.
I have a table with 4 columns headers
Name, Amount, Loc and Code
The name may look like ABC 1, ABC 2....
The Loc may be in US, GB...
and the Code may be AA, BB
I need to return a result "Y" if the sum of the amount is > 100
and "N" if the sum of the amount < 100 based on the conditions
of the following :if
1) Name is the same entity, such as ABC 1 and ABC 2 and
2) Loc is the same, US..and
3) Code is the same
I have attached a sample to illustrates the result
I'd like to return multiple rows with two matches on criteria (ID and First Term). I'm able to return all grades for a given ID but do not understand how to get the second criteria, First Term, in my statement.
=INDEX($F$2:$F$12, SMALL(IF($A16=$G$2:$G$12, ROW($G$2:$G$12)-MIN(ROW($G$2:$G$12))+1, ""), COLUMN(A1)))
Code reflects the ALL GRADES data below.

Here's the issue:
On sheet "master" I have a list of goals in column A.
Each has been assigned to at least one person. Each person will have their own sheet that will capture the goals assigned to them. As an example, see Al's sheet.
I am trying to get Excel to look for all of the goals assigned to AL on the Master sheet and list them nicely onto AL's sheet without out blank rows. (and for each, respectively on their own sheet). I could do this with Pivot Tables if the data were displayed differently, but I have been told that I have to display the goal assignments as shown.
I could use "x"s instead of their names to mark the assignment and I could combine the "goal-achieved expectations" and "goal #s" columns if it helps. I am not supposed to use filters either.
Note: Of course, a goal or an assignment could change on the master sheet, but the assignment is more likely to change.
how this done for AL, I can go ahead and create the other sheets.
I am developing Spreadsheet that you will enter a list of parts that you need. it will have many columns but only 4 are vital to the check. this will be generated for each project.
With each part i want to then look up in another file that is a list of all the possible parts you can have with there cost. this file will be standard for everything and it will be updated from time to time.
now not all the criteria to look up will be exact matches.
here is an example
code temp/pres rating diameter material
GLV 4500 15 16Mo3
in the other file we will have multipu entries for GLV with different values.
code temp/pres rating diameter material Cost Reference
GLV 4500 20 16Mo3 400 aaa1
GLV 5500 15 16Mo3 350 aab1
GLV 5000 15 16Mo3 300 aab2
GLV 5000 15 13CrMo4-5 600 acb1
GLV 5500 15 13CrMo4-5 600 acb2
For Code i need it to match (there are lots of codes even including variations like GLV.)
For Temp/pres rating i need it to be equal or higher to the value
For diameter i need a match
for material i need a match.
so as you can see from the list above there are 2 options. so then i want it to return the cheapest.
that is step one.
step two is to repeat it for multiple list of parts.
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'm logging failed password attempts and need to find the latest time logged for a single user (when user has failed 5 times).
So the 5th attempt, I need that time
So the usual - Application.UserName in the next free cell in a range and time stamp in the next cell.
What I've tried is:
Say log range is A1:B500 and
A=Username, B=Time stamp
In column C I've nested the two together
(this has more code but not required to get this working)
In C1
Code:
=A1&" "&"live"&" "&B1
So this will bring back "Username live 23:12:12". Now, say there is 5 of these (all with different times)
How do I find the latest time for that user?
Code:
IF(COUNTIF("USERNAME LIVE"&"*")=5,[find the latest time in that list",""
Just to wind you up some more, other users name will be logged and muddled up so it's literally -
"Excel - if a user has failed 5 times then give me the time of the 5th attempt"
I've tried a mixture of COUNTIF, MAX, LARGE, TIMEVALUE(...)
I am trying to lookup two distinct values in two columns (turquoise and green) in 'Cust data' tab and correlate them to the same values in two columns on 'Driver activity' tab, then return a result from column in yellow on 'Driver Activity' tab to populate the driver name in yellow column on 'Cust data' tab.
File is attached.
