Search Multiple Columns
=INDEX('Cost Table'!$A$4:$C$305, MATCH(A1308,'Cost Table'!$C$4:$C$305,), MATCH("Item Description",'Cost Table'!$A$4:$C$4,)) I have the above formula to search a worksheet for an item description. It looks for a part number in one column. I need to now search two adjacent columns (maybe more down the road), can I adjust this to do that?

Vlookup Search Of Multiple Columns
I have an XLS sheet filled with every zip code in the US... the zips are in multiple columns adjacent to columns with the corresponding county names. Unfortunately, the there are up to EIGHTEEN columns of zip codes in each row describing the counties... not one zip per row. I'm assuming this was done to save space. In another sheet, I have list of client zip codes and need to VLOOKUP the corresponding county from the first sheet. I'm certain I'm not using VLOOKUP right...I'm getting #N/A every time. Is this because it's only checking the first column of zip codes? I need it to check all 18 columns of course... there are no repeated zips. How do I do this without rebuilding the full zip database page?

Lookup/Search Multiple Columns/Criteria
I am looking to write a search function that searches through a whole document. The only examples I can find are of a could different search functions but they all are searching an specified individual column and even then I didn't really understand them. My worksheet has 6 different columns which are all different labels for a certain tool. I want the user to be able to input any of those 6 labels and have all the information in that row be returned.

Search Across Columns By Row & Replace Specific Cell Contents
I have created a desk planning spreadsheet in excel. Each week a mailmerge sends out an email to everyone in the office asking them to confirm when they will need a desk in the next week. As the normal employee doesnt get involved in desk planning I want them simply to state whether they will be in the building or not by entering "GH" (our building) in a cell under each day in the email they get sent. When the reply comes in we select the cells from the email and then paste them into the desk planning spreadsheet. ----- WHAT I NEED TO DO: Select some cells (must be in the same row - that we have just pasted in). Press a button on the Worksheet labelled "Auto Assign Desk", which does this:- For each cell that contains "GH", replace with the right-most cell to the left of the selection that starts "GH_"... (this is the start of a unique desk reference (GH_1_1, GH_1_2,etc.) ----- This will assign the employee to the desk they were sat at last, when they are in the office next week.

Search/Find Multiple Cell Values On Another Worksheet
I have three parameters that users on my spreadsheet will be using. They will be searching using the 'Brand', 'MPAN' and 'Tariff' fields.I would like to have drop down menu's for then to select the correct search option. I then have another sheet within the same workbook with all the data in it with columns headed of Brand', 'MPAN' and 'Tariff'. It has to be an excat match using those three parameters though. I would like the parameters the user selects on the first sheet to be searched and found on the second sheet, with the figures in the cells next to the search result getting fed back into a set cells back on the first page.

Search Multiple Worksheets Against List Of Non-Exact Search Criteria?
I have a workbook with many many sheets in it. The first sheet contains a single column with about 10,000 different values. I'd like to use each of these as search criteria against ALL data in the other sheets (of which there are a good 50 or so). If matches are found (they don't have to be exact case), then I'd like two things to happen: 1. The rows containing the matched search criteria in the first sheet are highlighted. 2. In the cells adjacent to the search criteria in the first sheet, hyperlinks to the matched data are created and named after the sheet upon which this matched data appears. I've attached a sample file to this post with ideal sample 'answers' to queries made of the first 2 terms.

Using The =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH Function To Search Multiple Cells)
I' having trouble using the =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH formula to search multiple cells. I can get it to work to search one cell (as below): =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Same",G10)),"No Change",'Aug 09 Matrix'!F10) (In this case the respone is No Change as Cell G10 contains "Same") However cannot get it to work for several cells. I have pasted below and highlighted the function I would like it to perform: =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Same",G10:R10)),"No Change",'Aug 09 Matrix'!F10) 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.

Interpolation Given A Variable Table Location & Location Of Data Within
I am trying to develop a spreadsheet that will calculate a cost based on a matrix. I am attaching a sample of the calculation created so far. The end result is in cell M13 and is highlighted in yellow. I kind of layed the formula out in a few different cells, so hopefully it would be easy to follow. simplify this process with maybe another formula that I might not be aware of, or maybe show me how to get this done in VB code. I think VB code would be the correct way to go just not sure.

Search Arrays For Specific Values And Copy "associated" Values To A New Location
Given the following data located in Sheet1 of a Workbook - •I have seven columns (assume header row names are “A, B, C, D, E, F, G”) each containing numeric data in random order. •All columns are of the same length (equal number of rows), followed by a blank cell, but the number of rows is unknown. •Columns with header row names A-E will only contain numbers from 0 to 100, while F and G may contain numbers from -127 to +128. Here is what I would like to do – I would like to be able to analyze the data in columns A-D to locate rows that contain specific combinations of values (ex. row 41 contains the values 50, 0, 0, 0 and row 239 contains values 100, 0, 0, 0 in columns A – D, respectively, etc.). For each row that is found to contain one of these combinations (there are many different combinations required), I would like to copy the associated values from columns E, F, & G for that row, and paste them into their respective (E, F, & G) columns located on Sheet2 of the same workbook. However, I would like to paste the E, F, & G values into a specific row order on Sheet2, DETERMINED by the value of the A – D combination identified on Sheet1. Continuing with the ex. above, let’s say I would like to have the EFG values from row 239 in Sheet1 copied to row 10 in Sheet2, while the EFG values from row 41, Sheet1, are to be copied to row 11 in Sheet2. In effect, I would like to create a table of this subset of data, in a specific order, from which I could work later. I can do this manually using “ AutoFilter” to locate the data I need and then write formulas to copy the data from Sheet1 to Sheet2 in the order that I need, but every time the order of the original data on Sheet1 changes I have to start all over.

I need a formula or whatever that would scan both lists and say, nothing matches, or 1616781 matches or highlight the matches or whatever, just so long as I don't have to go down the entire list multiple times. I would have downloaded Htmlmaker and provided a glimpse that way, but the web site is blocked here at work.

Cell Value Based On Mouse Location
Is there a way to have excel track where my mouse is hovering(say if I have it hovering over cell A4) and have it return the value of A4 in a different cell (e.g B7)? This would occur in real time - that is, as my mouse moved over the spreadsheet, B7 would update in real time. Note I would also accept someone selecting the cell - hovering (no select) would be ideal but selecting is OK.

Compare And Search Columns For Text?
I recently posted a similar thread which was very well supported but I couldn’t get a solution because my requirements were not clear enough. I would like to try again with a slightly easier and clearer requirement. I would like a spreadsheet that compares and searches columns for text and returns true if a duplicate is found. It is similar to a lottery checker except the lines being checked could be a string instead of a single character. I have attached a spreadsheet which helps explain what I’m trying to achieve. Basically, a user can sequentially enter a single character to cells F1:F5. These values are then compared to columns A:C. If one of the columns contain the values in column F then return true to G1.

Copy Multiple Columns Groups To 1 Group Of X Columns

(These will be the fifth, sixth, and seventh columns, E, F, and G. If it would be simpler, I could simply copy the third of each set of columns on Sheet1 (C, F, I) to column G of Sheet2. Then there would be a total of 144 columns being copied (60 numbers per column).) All of this copying has to be values-only as the original columns consist of formulas referencing outside cells.

There are many posts concerning sorting but not one that addressed this particular situation.

Copy Cell Values While Id Value Is Same To New Location Then Repeat For New Id Value
what I need to do is , while an id value is constant copy 2 adjacent cells to a new location on the same row as the first occourance of the id value, then if the id is the same on the next row repeat the copy and add these 2 values to the cells next to the ones previously copied. Once the Id value changes then the copy restarts on a new row which is the same as the first occourance as the new id value and repeats the same sequence as described in the first statement. I have attached a sample spreadsheet showing an example of the source and how I would like it to end up, the colour is only there to seperate the outcome from the source and is not required in the code.

Creating Variables Based On Cell Location
if Row i Column j is activated then a corresponding variable Aij, Bij, Cij or Dij would be created (if not already existing), or cumulated by 1. The problem as I see it - completely generalised - is to create a variable where the variable name itself is formulaic, as well as its value. I know SAS would have no problem with this due to the order in which it parses data steps, but I'm pretty amateur with other programming languages so I don't know if this is blindingly obvious or downright impossible!

Select A Range Based On Active Cell Location?
I'm trying to select a range of cells whereby the range is dependent on the currently active cell. I know you can use the "Activesheet.Range("A1:D2").select" method to select a range where the cells are always the same, but I'm after a dynamic selection where the values can be programmatically altered depending on some other result. For example, let's say that I make a certain cell active (based on the result of some other formula), and I want to select the range of cells in the adjacent column that is X rows deep. Putting this into context, imagine the resultant active cell is B2, I then want to select the range C2:C10, but if the active cell is E10, the range selected would be F10:F18 (if active cell is X, then range would be Y:Z). The Offset function would allow me to position the cell based on the current active one, but it doesn't let me select a range. The Range function only lets you choose either hard coded or index cells, e.g. "Range(cells(y,z), cells(y,z)).select", but this is still no good because I'd need to know the index value of the active cell (can this be done?).
