Return Text From Left-hand Side Of Ragged Array Where Entry Found

Apr 11, 2012

I've been given a spreadsheet that is poorly constructed but I'm not allowed to alter.

The layout is:
Box Name Box Date ID1 ID2 ID3 ....
Where there is not a fixed number of IDs in each box
(There are five different sheets so I'll have some fun concatenating results)

Given a list of IDs I need to return the box name and box date that the ID's file sits in. The spreadsheet has blanks everywhere and the numbers contained in rows are non-consecutive and smaller values can appear later in a column than larger ones.

I think I need some combination of index, offset and maybe sumproduct? TBH, I avoid sumproducts like the plague, preferring to utilise sumifs and dynamic named ranges since this improves clarity so I'm basically a newb at them.

Any skeleton framework that you think would work to return the text values for the LHS where the number could be anywhere? Once I can see a rough example I should be able to get to grips with the logic and wrangle it into the necessary solution.

Set Formula On Right Hand Side Under Column?

May 5, 2014

I have created "front page" which allow user to enter their enquiry.

The formula will be as per below.

Issuing
World Bank -->if amount less then 500,000 = amount x 0.03125%; if amount from 500,000 - 2.5mil = amount x 0.015625%

Royal Bank -->amount x 0.0625% x no. of month (min charges 100)
Deutsche Bank -->0.025% per 3 months (min. S$50)

Stand By LC
World Bank -->0.02% per quarterly (3mths) - Amount X Rate X 1 (1 to 3mths) or X 2(4 to 6 mths) or X3 (7 to 9 mths) or X4 (10-12 mths)
Royal Bank -->0.25%p.a by day (Principal x Rate x Day divide by 360 day x 100)

Am I able to set a formula for example:-

1. When I click on Mode of payment - Issuing

2. On my right hand side under column "Bank Name" will list down all bank available

3. On my right hand side under column "Estimate cost" will auto calc the cost base on the bank's formula.

SUMIF Function But The Sun Range Is On The Left Side Of The Criteria?

Aug 19, 2014

I am trying to SUM the total task done per date. The problem is, (for the sake of this problem) the DATE is in Column B and the Task Total is in Column A. I know that SUMIF is not possible because the SUM RANGE should be always on the right side of the CRITERIA.

My question is, is there other formula other than SUM IF to figure this out? or I have no choice but to Interchange the data in a matter that SUMIF function will run.

Excel 2010 :: How To Move Comment Box To Left Side Of A Cell

Feb 23, 2014

I have an excel spread sheet and on the last column on the right hand side I have some comment boxes but when I hover over them they pop up to the right of the cell, and then they are off the screen.

Can I alter it to make the comment box pop up to the left side of the cell.

[Code] ....

Is it possible to adapt this code to get me the desired results or will it have to be a separate one.

Also i'm not sure if I have the code right because if I run the macro then open a comment box in the (M) column as in the code the comment box is the default size then if I run the macro again once I have the little red tick in the corner of the it changes to what the code says.

Lookup Value In Array - Where Found Multiple Times Return Closest Prior Date

Mar 13, 2014

I have a list of ID Numbers and Dates. Let's call this "List 1".

I also have a second list "List 2" which also contains a list of ID Numbers and Dates as well as a third column for Rating.

I am trying to extract the Rating for each ID Number from List 2 and display in List 1. The problem is that the Rating can change with time, so List 2 contains several different Date and Rating values for the same ID Number.

What I need to do is lookup the ID Number from List 1 and return from List 2, for that ID Number, the Rating at the closest date prior to the date for that ID Number in List 1. Example below:

List 1
List 2

ID Number
Date
Rating

111
17/04/13
5

Defining A 2D Array By Hand

Nov 22, 2009

I have to enter a 2D array by hand into code because I am doing it in PowerPoint VBA, but I can't find out how to enter a giant array manually.

I know I could do it like this:

MyArray(0,0) = 1
MyArray(1,0) = 2
MyArray(2,0) = 3
...
MyArray(99,99) = 10000

But obviously that would be a giant mess.

Couldn't I just define it like:
{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,...,99,100;
101,102,103,...,199,200;
...10000}

Return Yes If Text Is Found Within A Cell

Dec 24, 2013

I currently have the below formula to search for text of interest (A1) within each cell of a column (B6:B30).

=IF(ISERROR(MATCH(A1,$B$6:$B$30,0)),"NO","YES")

The formula works perfectly if there is only a single value in the cells. But not so well when the cell has multiple values separated by a comma.

For example:

Column B

X
Y
Z
T, X, Y, Z

It would return a "Yes" for X, Y, and Z because those are found individually. However, T will appear as a "No", because it is found within a cell that is separated by commas.

Return TRUE If Part Text Found In Cell Range

Feb 27, 2012

The formula has to include a range across each row (for each student). The formula has to search for specific text contained in the classnames, and then return the result along the same row.

Below is an example, which I hope saves OK in the thread. If not I'll upload an Excel file:

A B C D Results:-
1 class1 class2 class3 class4 Gg Hi Fr Sp
2 10m/Gg1 10m/Hi2 10m/Fr1 10m/En1 TRUE TRUE TRUE FALSE
3 10n/Hi1 10n/En2 10n/Sp1 10n/Ma1 FALSE TRUE FALSE TRUE

Lookup Names Within Text And Return That Name To Separate Column If Found

Jun 13, 2013

I'm using a formula to lookup names within text and return that name to a separate column if it's found.

The formula is =INDEX($E$1024:$E$1026,MATCH(FALSE,ISERROR(FIND($E$1024:$E$1026,E1010)),0))

I understand index and match functions, but I'm confused regarding the use of FALSE as the lookup value and the iserror(find( usage.

Compare Two Columns Side By Side To Highlight/change Color Of Difference

Nov 7, 2008

Is it possible to compare two columns side by side to highlight/change color of difference between the two cells

I need to compare and show the changes to the record from previous version and generate a report which will highlight the changes (Rather than just saying that record has changed It should tell what has changed)

For example if the

Column 1 (Previous Version) :The structure contains Wire, Bolt, Stmaps etc

Column 2 (Current Version) : The structure contains Wire, Bolt, Stamps etc

Data Changed: YES

In report is should show two columns side by side and in Column 2 it should highlight "Stamps"

Side-By-Side Pivot Table Or Multiple Report Filters?

Dec 21, 2011

Is there a way to have separate Report Filters for each column in a pivot table?

I am trying to create a pivot table with 3 columns - 1: account code 2.current year (2011) 3. prior year (2010)

My Row Label is an account code field - each row is a different account code that sums up dollar amounts for the two financial years. The problem is that I need Columns 2 and 3 to have separate Report Filter criteria. So in Column 2 - I need the filter to weed out anything that is not 'Financial Year 2011'. In Column 3, I need the filter to weed out anything that is not 'Financial Year 2010'. Setting up a filter for one screws up the second, and vice versa.

Alternatively, how can I make two side-side-pivot tables that each have their own Report Filters?

Two Sheets That Need To Have Unique Partial Matches Aligned Side By Side

Jul 31, 2009

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.

Find And Match: Delete Any Row On The Old Side That Is Not Contained On The New Side

i have 2 excel worksheets. One of them contains over 20,000 rows of entries (old side) and the other contains about 900 rows of entries (new side). Both contain the same 9 column headings. I've shortened the list in my workbook example.

What i need to do is excel to delete any row on the old side that is not contained on the new side. I don't need the rows to match fully but the column A's (Doc number) are what i want it to check against. I've included a summarised version of the database and the old and new are separated by a heavy blue line. Need to be left with the same rows on either side of that blue line at the end.

Return Text From A Mixed Text/value 3d Array Result

Dec 2, 2009

I've been searching the forums and web trying to figure out how to extract a text value from a 3D array result, to no avail or well beyond my understanding.

I've attached a file which shows an abbreviated version of the search (from the original 49 col x 400 row, which shows the name to date array which can return a sum.

What I'm looking to do is identify within this array result if there has been a text entry, and return the text as opposed to a sum of the remaining values. This is essentially a double check to make certain that there aren't hours scheduled when other events such as vac/loa/etc are also booked.
