I'm currently trying to put together a search function of sort onto an excel document to look for entries of "Y" based on the choices in a drop down list to populate a list of names that have a "Y" next to them. I've searched the net and read up on IF, VLOOKUP and HLOOKUP commands but I can't quite string something together. An example of what I am trying to achieve is below;
If we look at Produced date and TO Date in Sheet1. If the TO date is less than the Produced date then the TO date is the date to use. i.e. for May it will Say Produced:, 22 Jun 2009 "From:","2009-05-01","To:","2009-05-31". So use "From:","2009-05-01","To:","2009-05-31"47 (because TO < Produced use TO )
However in June it might say Produced:, 22 Jun 2009 "From:","2009-06-01","To:","2009-06-30". So use "From:","2009-06-01","To:","2009-06-21" (because TO > Produced use Produced -1 ).I've already have some formulas in place. Look at the attached file, but I don't know how to set up the IF formula or any other.
Using the search macro code below, could someone please help to add in more codes what I'm currently using, and also where to insert it. The Search function works well for what I need and it helps me to locate data. When using the search function somehow it search all sheets within the workbook but I only want it to search an array of sheets when using this macro that is needed to complete the task for what I'm after.
Macro Public Sub FindText() 'Run from standard module, like: Module1.
Dim ws As Worksheet, Found As Range, rngNm As String Dim myText As String, FirstAddress As String, thisLoc As String Dim AddressStr As String, foundNum As Integer
myText = InputBox("Enter the text that you want to search for:", "Start Search!")
I'm from Bavaria, Germany. Right now, I am doing an internship for my studies. my problem: I need a search procedure which shows an Input Box where you can enter a word to search for. It should work like the original Excel search (Ctrl-F), but with a simpler design, like with my own Text "Enter your Query" and a Button "Submit Query" / "Quit search". Is there the possibility to Highlight the Search Target? The problem hereby is that this highlighting should not be permanent. That means the user sees the target for which he searched for, the cell highlighted in a different color, etc. But as soon as the user clicks onto another cell, etc., the highlighting vanishes. If there is no fitting match, there should be a MessageBox like "Sorry the Target xyz cannot be found"
Essentially the other cells in that row (G10:R10) all contain "Same", however for some reason it is identifying this as FALSE and putting in the data from the 'Aug 09 Matrix' sheet.
I have a workbook with 2 different types of sheet - 1 containing source data and the others 'collecting' data from the source sheet, depending on what the sheet is for.
For example, the data source contains different pets, their names, ages and their owners.
The other sheets are on a one-per-owner basis.
What I would like to do is use a LOOKUP / MATCH function to lookup the owner name typed in cell A1 of the output sheet and match it with the corresponding owner name(s) on the source sheet. I would then like it to return with each pet and append the results on the sheet accordingly - like below:
John Smith (in cell A1)
Pet - Name - Age ------------------- Dog - Rover - 3 Goldfish - Tom - 1 Gerbil - Chewit - 4
I am trying to perform a lookup (vlookup) function in a cell in excel and wish to have the range as a variable, so that I can adjust which column the lookup function refers to.
I'd like to create a search bar where someone types text into a field in Sheet1 (in the sample B1), then clicks a macro button to search for that word in Sheet2.
The result should be that the cell containing that word is where you end up.
The search word shouldn't be an exact match for the result, the cell just needs to contain it.
The search bar should also be present on Sheet2, with an additional button for Find Next, so that the user can move to the next result if the first one is not what they're looking for.
I've managed to create a search function with a pop up box using the below but this isnt as effective.
I need some help in creating a search box in excel. I have 4 rows of data, and want the user to enter a 4 digit number in a text box, which is then searched in the spreadsheet, pulling up the results.
So far I have the following code..
Sub Button1_Click()
'Opens box and ask what do they want to search searchthis = InputBox("Type in a location keyword.", "Property Search") 'Tells where to search Columns("A:E").Select 'and then search in them whatever the user entered: Selection.Find(What:=searchthis, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:= _ xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:= _ xlNext).Activate
End Sub It only highlights the results, leaving all other data on the spreadsheet. Ideally id want to see only the results of the search. Is there anyway to do this?.
Also, if the search returns no results, I get a debugger message. I want some sort of error message to come up.
I've got a code that stores a variable and then searches for that variable in a different file. When it finds the answer it it jumps over and up and highlights a different cell. The problem now is that I want it to keep searching past where the first result was and repeat this process down the entire column. Here's what I have so far:
Code: Sub Find() ' ' Find Macro ' Finds a specific key word or phrase from the search box and codes the matches green. MsgBox "This may take a moment, please be patient." ' This next line establishes the fact that the function will use a variable. Dim FindClass As String On Error GoTo ErrorCatch
I am trying to use lookup function to lookup for data in another table (we call it table A). Unfortunately, whenever the code is not in the table A, Excel will return the data from the previous row.... is there any possible way to prevent this... in another word, if the code does not exist in the table A, I want Excel to return 0 or some other figures.
Adding a search engine like feature to a spreadsheet we have which has multifarious columns of data on it, here is a screenshot of what it looks like:

We have multiple sheets for each tutor like that picture which lists all information of their learners for reference, now I want to do a search feature on the main home page or perhaps on a dedicated "Search" page which allows us to filter out specific information out of those columns, mainly the ability to search by "Tutor" (aka sheet name), "Postcode", "Venue", "End Date", "Learner Name" and "EBS" number...
Is it possible to make a hyperlink that will jump to a section that is not based on cells (A10, etc..) but rather on column (A) and a certain value in the cell, for instance, 2.1 or 2.2 or 2.3. The reason I want to do this is that when I have to add in new rows I do not want to have to redo all the hyperlinks since the cell shifted.
Am a newbie in excel macros. pls i need assistance as to how to create a macro that searches a worksheet for a particular word. i wrote something like below but am having problems in it.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim word As TextFrame
If word Is Not Empty Then For word = "aaaaaaaaa" To "zzzzzzzzzz" ThisWorkbook.Worksheet.Find Next word End If
I am trying to create a uniform stock database for my company. Thus far, I have 2 worksheets. The first is a face sheet, for the user to interact with. This face sheet has a number of drop down menus on it allowing them to select "Type" and "Size" of the item they need. This information is then translated (by a hidden table) into an item code.
The second sheet contains a list of all the uniform items currently in stock. Each item has its individual code that correlates to the code the face sheet generates.
My question is regarding a search macro.
I want the user to be able to click a command button on the face sheet, labelled "search". This would then take the generated "Item Code" and search for it on the second worksheet. I am aware that it would be very easy for them to simply copy the code into "find" on the second sheet, however it needs to be as easy and quick to use as possible.
I'm only moderately skilled with Excel, and I work primarily with the logical, not mathematical functions. That being said, I'd like to know if there is a good method for Excel to solve this problem. I've been working at it in a rather sloppy manner until I began researching some other approaches.
The Problem(s):
I am developing a site that teaches the grammar of modern Chinese at the same time that it builds vocabulary by frequency. There are a couple of issues with this: Chinese word corpi are virtually nonexistent, and where existent, sloppy. Chinese character corpi are more available and somewhat more reliable. The difference between a word and a character in Chinese can be a bit hazy, but the easiest way to put it is that not all characters stand alone as word and that most words are two to three characters in length.
Therefore, using data from the character corpus and a few thorough dictionaries, I created a word list in Excel that has the words and definitions in separate columns.
I have likewise found a character corpus that I have appropriately organized by ranking and other relevant data. The characters occupy a column.
Here's the basic logical function I am trying to create in separate columns, which are organized by frequency of the character:
=IF(AND(OR(contains any characters in the character corpus from frequency x to frequency y),NOT(OR(contains any characters in the character corpus from frequency y+1 to z)),Word Column,"")
Now, I know now that I have a good workaround, so I can shorten this to...
=IF(NOT(OR(contains any characters in the character corpus from frequency y+1 to z)),Word Column,"")
The problem is that I don't see any effective means of efficiently coding the OR condition!
Is there some magic that can be done so that I can use the ISNUMBER(SEARCH(characters,word cell) function for multiple characters?
I definitely don't want to go... =IF(NOT(OR(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("‹…",word cell)),ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Ž®",same word cell),...),Word Column,"") for thousands upon thousands of characters!
Is there a way for me to select a range of values within the SEARCH() function to allow this kind of programming?
I also had a look at the filters, but found myself facing the same problem.
I have an 'Update' Module that search the value of the Userform1.txt_sc.Value in Column B, but I want to search to 2 criteria, how can i amend the below code to search for 2 criteria ( userform1.txt_sc.value & userform1.txt_linenum.value )
I've been trying to put together a VBA code that allows me to find a number between 1000 - 10,000. I am able to find any number below 999 but can seem to find anything above 1000. I've been using the following ....
Now, I need a formula that will sum the entire column B, by looking up the array of column A on another sheet and only summing the numbers on sheet 1 that also have a value of "West" on sheet 2. Sheet 2 looks like this:
This needs to be functional as a template to be used each month - the entire point of the formula is to save time and eliminate the current (and lengthy method that is in use). I can tweak the formulas as needed. But am trying to avoid having to concatenate anything or do any modifications to the format of the sheets.
Is it possible to set up a lookup function with two lookup values? For example, say I have a list of items such as:
1 A 14 1 B 22 2 C 84 4 D 25
I'd like to have the lookup go to the above table and find the number 1 and the letter B and return 22. I can't seem to visualize how to make this work.
I need to know if its possible, and if it is, what the formula would be to get the correct "Rate" to pull based on the criteria given:
User would input the following information:
Zip Code: 56559 Pallets: 3 Weight: 1200
The formula needs to use the following table to use the criteria listed above, to fine the correct "Rate". The "Zip Code" and "Weight" both need to fall between the correct ranges and then match the "Pallet" to find the correct "Rate".
From Zip Code To Zip Code Pallets Weight From Weight To
I have 3 workbooks "ID numbers, 07 Car,and 08 Car".
I need a VBA code that will use the value in column C in each workbook, look up the value in workbook "ID numbers", column C thru G, and return values into each workbook:
Workbook ID number Column C add values to Each workbook (Column B) Workbook ID number Columns D thru E) add values to Each workbook (Columns D thru E)
See 07 Car workbook highlighted in orange, every product below the orange highlight must look like for both workbooks this after the code is ran.
I have looked at previous v lookup questions however was unable to do a comparison to the queries which I have. Hope someone is able to help. Sending spreadsheet to hopefully clarify
Sheet 1 = downloaded orders
Sheet 2 = present Customer database
Q1 - sheet 2 column E - can I make the address show without the return stroke (square symbol)?
Q2 - how do I return in sheet 1 column b and c the information held on sheet 2 column b and c. I have tried using the post code as the look up but it is only returning around a 30% find, can you use post code and rest of the address (post codes could be partially different as off 2 independant databases) to find a true match, or at least increase the 30% find considerably.
I am trying to use a lookup formula to search for a word in a column, and return the value of the column directly to its left. I know that this cannot be done using the vlookup function, and I am not able to move the columns around. Is there another possibility? In plain English then, I would like cell E2 to look up the value of D2 in column B2:B4 and return the relevant value in column A2:A4.
In the attached sheet I am trying to use the formula below but am getting a #NA error. I have narrowed the problem down to the use of the SEARCH and LEFT functions that I am using to determine the lookup value of the VLOOKUP formula.
what I am doing wrong? If I substitute the SEARCH and LEFT function with the number "14" it works just fine. You can find examples of both in cells B29 and C29 on the rename tab.
I have a 14 000-item list of product codes that are generated from different attributes. What I am trying to do, is to create a cover sheet where the user can select attributes from dropdown lists and get the first matching product code. I have tried using index/match, but I am struggling with wildcard lookup.
Example of generated product code:Cell A1: ABX**J
Here, AB is the product group, X is the pressure class, ** is material (which is, for the example, unknown), and J is the end connection. What I now want to do, is to look in the long list of codes and find the first match:
