Search Two Columns?
Mar 22, 2012
I have a list of names in column C and a list of Codes in column A. I have a unique list of the names from C in column M and a unique list of codes as headers in N1 through S1. A name will be used several times in column C But will only match a code in column A one time. My codes are: In, Out, Shop, ConfRoom, Libr, Musm, and Thrtr. How can I search the name and code and get the time from column E and put it in the appropriate cell. I can concatenate everything and do a VLookup but that would be several thousand rows.

I have a workbook that has worksheeets for every day of the month. The data in the worksheet consists of columns (employee #, name, clock in/out times, and break penalty).
What I am trying to do is create another worksheet that searches all the other worksheets for a "yes" in the "break penalty" column and then create a list of all the employees that received a break penalty for the entire month. I would like this to be able to auto populate throughout the month as data is entered and not have to use a filter every time I want to compile this list.

The first tab of the excel sheet called 'Data' displays information on the years that 2 countries traded with one another. For example, from the years 2005-2010, Belgium traded with multiple countries (Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile). However, there could have been one year or multiple years where it did not trade with a particular country (e.g. in 2006, it may have skipped trade with Chile).
What I'd like to do is basically create a function that searches through the data and returns a 1 if Belgium traded with a particular country each year from 2005-2010 and a 0 if it did not. So, for instance, because Belgium traded with Australia, Brazil, and Canada in all 6 years, the function would return a 1. But, because it did not trade with Chile in all 6 years, it will get a 0.
The second tab called 'Results' displays what I'd like it to show. I've tried using if statements (but they don't work with text), vlookups, match, index .

I need a formula that matches a number on Sheet1 with a number on Sheet2. Sheet1 contains 7 columns of numbers. Each column corresponds with the same column on Sheet2 if the number on Sheet1 column 1 can be found in Sheet2 column 1 then the result is True. If the number is not found in Sheet2 column 1 then the result is False. This same criteria would apply to columns 2 through 7 as well.
The formula would start by selecting a number in Sheet1 that corresponds with the formula column and then scan the entirety of the matching column on Sheet2 for that number. If it is found in that column the result is TRUE.
Sheet1 H3 corresponds to Sheet1 A3 scans all of Sheet2 column B for the value in A3 if it's in Sheet2 column B the result in H3 is True if it's not then the result in H3 is False.
EXAMPLES:
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (A3) = 2223333333
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (B72) = 2223333333
Result H3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (B3) = 222333333314
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (C67) = 222333333314
Result I3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (C3) = 222333333332
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (D61) = 222333333332
Result J3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (D3) = 222333333321
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (E62) = 222333333321
Result K3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (E3) = 222333333331
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (F65) = 222333333331
Result L3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (F3) = 222333333351
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (G70) = 222333333351
Result M3 = TRUE
Sheet1: column heading 1 - (G3) = 222333333352
Sheet2: column heading 1A - (H69) = 222333333352
Result N3 = TRUE
I've attached a workbook with examples : match_numbers.xlsx‎

I need to search multiple columns to find a match before I want the result selected which itself will be in a different column.
It seems to me to be an extension of the VLookup function. Attached is an example of the sort of spread sheet I am trying to pull data from. I am trying to get the result of Area 5G, for site ZZ, KPI 2.1, Date Apr-13. As well as the result for Area 5G, Site (empty), KPI 2.1, Date May-13. I hope this is not to convoluted

I want to search Column A in sheet1 vs column B in sheet 2. If there is a match, i want copy Column B in sheet 1 and PASTE it to Column E in sheet2. I have a macro (helped by those on here ) that will find the duplicates and copy cells from the cooresponding row only to another sheet.
The tricky thing is, the macro I have makes a complete new sheet. I want to copy the data to column E on sheet2 ONLY if there is a match for that cell. If ther eis nto a match i dont want it to put anything.

I have 2 columns of data (Column A and Column B).
I would like to be able to search the two columns and see if any of the data repeats in either column. Here's an example:
15844721565538
15907771565575
15936501574897
15946991576501
15970061576502
16095501578841
16124741578842
16124781578843
16124821578844
16166161578954
1616781 1616781
The list is much longer than this. 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.

=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?

It always hassles me to have to change the default setting of FIND to search by Columns instead of Rows.
My question is simple: Is it possible to change the default setting so that every time I use FIND it will search by Columns by default???

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.

I have an excel spreadsheet with:
2 sheets,Sheet1 and Sheet2
4 columns (A,B,C,D)
100,000s of rows.
I need to search 3 columns, B,C and D, for particular values.
Column B needs to be = 0
Columns C and D need to be "<=0.1"
When all three criteria in the row are matched I need the value from column A in that row to be pasted to Sheet2 and then for the macro to continue searching the rows.
I have attached an extract of the data as the files size is too large to upload.

Trying to create a dynamic vba code that searches the second last active column for a particular criteria. In this case it is the value "901".
If the criteria is met it will search the row to see if value is >=0 then change to zero where applicable.
In the example, I have a loop which searches Column 6 for the matching criteria. I want to change from Column 6 to "second last column" which is Dynamic to allow for more column to search through.
The two codes below search through column "A" and Column "B". Is there anyway to make this Dynamic also so it searches from Column "A" to the 4th Last Active Column.
So the Column to check for Matching Criteria is "Second Last Column" The Data to Loop through will be from Column A to the "Fourth Last Active Column".
Public Sub ChangeCellValue_TwoConditions_ColA()
Dim Last_Row As Long
Dim iLoop As Long
Last_Row = ActiveSheet.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row + 1
For iLoop = Last_Row To 1 Step -1
If (trim(ActiveSheet.Cells(iLoop, 1).Value) >= 0) And (trim(ActiveSheet.Cells(iLoop, 6).Value) = "901") Then
ActiveSheet.Cells(iLoop, 1).Value = "0"

I have Column Headers in Row 1 (except column A), What I need to do is write a Macro or some code to
1.Search the entire row 1 for column headers containing the suffix _CSV and delete the entire columns.
2.Shift all remaining columns to the left so no blank columns exist. (There is a time stamp in row A that I wish to keep where it is.)
Next I would like a separate routine to sort the columns in the order of a Pre-defined list that I specify in a range. For example the list of column headers reside in the Range (A1:A200)

I'm trying to make vba, that takes one value(special code, up to 13 car long) from sheet4 column i1 and searches the match from sheet2 columns E:M. And when match is found, copies from sheet4 column K1 value(the same row where the code was taken from) to found match sheet(in this case sheet2) in column Q (the row must be the same where match was found)
If this maters, columns E:M may be hidden on sheet2, or E1 may be only one that's shown.
And has to loop until the end of the sheets.
By the way - i've got up to 150000 rows..

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?

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.

I am working on a time management sheet for my company. I need to be able to click a button and have the file search 3 columns for a persons initials and then hide all the rows where the initials are not in at least one of the three columns. I seem to have no problem getting it to work for one column at a time, but as soon as I try to search more than one it all falls apart.
I will also need to create an unhide all button to reset the sheet after the macro has been run.
I have attached a sample of the sheet below. Each project needs to have 3 rows to show the schedule and budget broken down by each team member.
Project Number
Address
Service
PM

I am creating a database using excel and I've created a userfrom for ease of data entry and searching the database. But now I am stuck at the searching part.
The sheet is Sheet1 and the userform is UserForm1. Based on the pic that i have attached, user needs to key in the keywords in any of the textboxes and comboboxes in the group box labelled "Organizational detail" and when he/she clicks on the Search button, the userform will display the whole rows where the search results reside onthe listbox. When the user click on the search results on the listbox, the textboxes and comboboxes will be updated with the data on the listbox.

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.
