Search For Each ID In Single Cell & Return Corresponding Cell


to search for specific text in a cell but not just one word or letter, in fact it could be many. I need to first verify that the exact texts exist in a table and then match the various text instances with corresponding data in that table.

At the moment, this works to search for one type of text and verify it's exsistence in the able and indeed return the corresponding value, but i need it to do it for all verified texts

=(INDEX(A2:A4,MATCH( LOOKUP(9.99999999999999E+307,SEARCH(" "&$B$2:$B$6&" "," "&D2&" "),$B$2:$B$6),B2:B4,0),1))

Example attached

Search Specific Value In Single Cell
I have a code which can search a column of data and register if any of the cells are equal to eg. "LOMM" or another given shortname.

But sometimes the cell that i want to compare to "LOMM" contains multiple shortnames. (eg. "LOMM, GIV, ANDHE").

In such a case I cannot use the if cells(i, y) = "LOMM" then...

I need an "if"-statement which can identify LOMM in a cell containing multiple shortnames.

I have tried using the FIND and SPLIT functions but it does not work.

Return Single Cell Address From Range
I have a list of ID's on one sheet that are also located in a large matrix on another sheet.

This macro uses the Find_Range function to find each ID within the matrix and return the column header where the ID was first located.
There is also a line which return a list of ranges, indicating all the places where the ID was found.

What I want is to convert the list of ranges into a list of corresponding column headers (ie row 1 of all columns in the range)

Search Formula (return A Statement If A Certain Month Is Contained In The Text Within Another Cell)
I am trying to write a formula that will return a statement if a certain month is contained in the text within another cell. Formula is =IF(ISERROR(SEARCH("Dec",Assumptions!B2)),"Ensure Journal is Non Reversing","")

Cell B2 contains a date in the format of Dec 08, so if this date contains Dec, then return "Ensure Journal is Non Reversing", if it doesn't then leave the cell blank.

At the moment it is putting in the first test for every month I select and not changing to blank.

Find Multiple Instances Of Single Criterion In Row & Return To A Single Col
Find Multiple instances of Numeric Criterion in Row & Return To a Single
Column.

I have a Dynamic Named Range "Data" spanning 10 Columns and many Rows.
Each Row may contain duplicates of the Numeric Criterion.

I would like to find ALL instances of a specific Numeric Criterion across
each single Row in the Dynamic Range "Data" and have the Results returned to
a New Sheet in a single column.

NEW Sheet:
The Numeric Criterion is housed in G5.
The matched criterion should be returned to the New Sheet starting at G7.
Duplicate instances in the same Row should ALL be returned to the same cell
in Column G on the New Sheet.

Sample Data Layout:
Columns I J K L M N O P Q R
Row No.76 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 0 1
Row No.77 2 2 3 2 1 2 2 0 0 0
Row No.78 3 3 3 3 3 0 3 0 3 0

Scenario:
Looking for Numeric Criterion 1 (one).

Expected Results - New Sheet:
Row No.7 Column G (Cell G7) 1111111
Row No.8 Column G (Cell G8) 1

In Row 76 of the Sample Data ALL seven Numeric Criterion of 1 (one) should be
returned to the same cell G7.
In Row 77 of the Sample Data there is only one Numeric Criterion of 1 and it
should be returned to cell G8.

Single Search Output
I have a spreadsheet (called “output”) with a single list of unique account numbers in column A. In columns B, C, D (column B = Invoice, column C = Sales, column D = class), I need to add information from a data file based upon certain search criteria which is as follows:

For each account number I need to list an invoice number and the corresponding sales amount and class. I need to list the invoice with the “highest” sales amount. There is only one catch to the issue I am encountering and this is I need to first look for the highest amount in Class A sales, if no Class A sales, then look for the highest in Class B sales….and then Class C….and then Class D. If there are no sales in Class A, B, C, or D, then return a value of “no match found”.

Goal: I would like a formula for Column C that If B2 Contains "GroupA" Then C2 = "GroupA"... Then ofcourse if B3 Contains "GroupA" Then C3 = "GroupA" and so on.

Problem: I've tried the options from the other posts and I run into an issue that if B2 contains "GroupABC" then it puts "GroupA" in C2 and that is what I do not want to happen.

Unable To Search/find ' Single Apostrophe
I imported the data from someone. And the cell in the column comes with the single quote'infront of the cell value. For example, the value that you see in the cell is "920-F-Y", but if Click on that cell, it turns out to be '920-F-Y, there's a single quote infront of it. I can't do a replace all on that single quote to empty space for some reason. Might just be my excel, or there's just something wrong. The problem is, I have 2 sources of data. I imported the first one, it has the single quote infront of it, i imported the second one, it has no single quote infront of it. I want to do a comparison, but I can't because it's different by single quote.

You can open my attachment, and try to replace that ' (single quote) with a space, and excel will complaint that it can't find it. I could go through each one and delete it individually, but consider that there are 5000 cells, it's just a lot of work.

Get A Single Cell To Look At An Array
What I’m trying to do is get a single cell to look at an array, if there is a number in that array which is between 2 limits to return that number. This is eventually going to work with limits of dates/times, and have to be updated once a day. I’ve attached a workbook with an example of the data and the way I want it formatted. {=IF(AND(A1:A25>=D32,A1:A25<E32),A1:A25,"")}

But this always returns a false. I can get it to work without using array and just having cell to cell logic but this means I would need the same amount of columns in the formatted data as the raw which is impractical.

Cell Reference Or Adjacent Cell Return
I have a formula that searches through a couple columns, and based on some criteria on those columns, it returns a value. The criteria looks at the dates in a given week, finds the earliest date, and then the largest value for all entries of the same date. So, I do not know what this vale is going to be in advance. In any case, Let's call this value1. This is all working fine!

Now, what I need to do is grab the value in an adjacent column to the left(same row) and add that to value1. Let's call this adjacent column value, value2. I was thinking that I could use the OFFSET function in this way, OFFSET(cell reference of value1, 0, -1) to return value2.

But this requires that I can get a cell reference for Value1. I cannot find out how to get a cell reference. I saw some VBA code to search and return cell references, but it assumed that you know what value you are looking for, and I do not know that in advance.

Using A Single Cell For Data Entry
Basicaly what I am trying to accomplish is the use of a single cell to enter the values 1 thru 60, so starting at e2 for instance, if I enter the number 1 then cell f2 will populate with a 1, if I were to enter the number 18 then the cell w2 would populate with an 18. So the range of cells that need to populate in this example would be (f2:BM2) for row 2. Furthermore if I were to enter a -1 or a -18 in cell e2 then those numbers would be eliminated from the appropriate cells on row 2. The next 299 rows would need to perform the same way for a total of 300 user input rows.

The way that I'm imagining e2 would behave in the example would be...type a 1 then enter....18 then enter....31 then enter and so on. Columns f thru bm would locked and unselectable....so a tab should send me back to a3.

Reasoning.... this is a simple scoring system based on 60 codes and data integrity is very important and I want to eliminate as much human error as possible. I will be setting autofilters and such later on.

I am attaching a screencapture as well.

Validation List From A Single Cell
First, I have read through the board, and I was not able to find a solution already posted. I apologize if in fact this is a duplicate.

Second, I am comfortable with dynamic lists, dynamic ranges, chained validation lists, etc: so I am pretty sure my question is not a repeat of the other recent validation list questions.

Therefore:

Is it possible to generate a validation list from a single cell with a comma separated list?

For example, if I have “Fresh, Cool, Hot, Neutral, Smooth” in given cell, can I then have those 5 items appear as separate choices in a validation list?

I have tried every combination I could think of using arrays, named lists, the INDIRECT function, etc. I cannot seem to get it to recognize them as separate items. For the moment, I have created a bad (too long/complex) workaround where formulas are used to pull out each of the 5 strings into individual cells.

F9 contains a hyperlink to the named range and is the same as the named range but with spaces.

A couple of things that I have tried are below:

=OFFSET(INDIRECT(SUBSTITUTE($F9," ","_")),1,0)

=OFFSET(VLOOKUP("bob",INDIRECT(SUBSTITUTE($F9," ","_")),14,FALSE),1,0)

Neither of these work, I am asuming it is because I dont have a specific cell reference named for the offset?

Plot A Graph From One Single Cell
I need to know, can I plot a graph (ongoing plotting each value) from just ONE single cell which constantly updates it's value? (I have a third party datafeed hooked up to one single cell in Excel 2000 [yes, the old one ] and it updates quickly in realtime automatically throughout the day). But I need to trace the history of the values, plot a graph of all the values which ever show up in that single, in other words.

Also, I need to date and time stamp each new plot on the X axis of the graph (only when a new figure appears in the cell). So, for example, my one and only "datacell" (say, A1!) which is linked to an external datafeed is showing "145.87541" at 12:30:45 on 27/04/05. I need that time and date on the X axis which the number as the plot. Then that cell changes value 2 seconds later to "145.87587" at 12:30:47 on 27/04/05. Now I need that second plot on the graph at the correct time/date stamp so I am constantly plotting the history of the value onwards (potentially forever!) using just that one, automatically updating, cell.
