Searching Through A List Of Values Across A Whole Sheet
Sep 23, 2009
I have a list of values in column A of sheet 2. What I would like Excel to do is search for each of these values on the whole of Sheet 1. Sheet 1 has around 20 columns of information and a dynamic number of rows.
In column B of Sheet 2, Id like TRUE or FALSE displayed depending if the value is found on Sheet 1. For example
AB
1 DOGTRUE
2 CAT TRUE
3 MOUSE FALSE
4 HORSE TRUE
If this can only be achieved via macro, please post the code rather than a file as I cant download the file here.

I have a sheet named "original" with columns a, b, c. My code checks each cell in column C for a value and then copys columns A,B,C to a sheet named "Order". It works fine except I need it to start pasting the results in row 16 instead of row
Sub PLACEORDER()
Dim lastrow_first As Long
Dim lastrow_second As Long
Dim x As Long
lastrow_first = Sheets("ORIGINAL").Cells(Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
For x = 10 To lastrow_first
If Sheets("ORIGINAL").Cells(x, 3) <> "" Or Not IsEmpty(Sheets("ORIGINAL").Cells(x, 3)) Then................

I have a list of records that for which I cannot find values for. Essentially I have a dataset that I need to match to other information but for some records this 'other information' is missing.
1. I have a list of records with missing information
2. I have a folder with a large amount of sub-directories
3. I have many DBF files inside of these sub-directories with X columns and x rows
4. Somewhere within some row of some column is a value that links to my list of records
5. I need to search for my value in, say, A2 and return the file name and directory in which it lies
6. It can be text or number
is this clear?

I have the following data
A | B
_______________________
WD |100 From Bangalore
CR |Hyderabad 50
CR |Mysore 70
WD |900 From Kolkata
_________________________
and so on in A and B columns. In the C Column depending on the cell value I want just the places like Bangalore, Hyderabad, Mysore, Kolkata etc only to be displayed like shown below.
A | B | C
___________________________________
WD | 100 From Bangalore | Bangalore
CR | Hyderabad 50 | Hyderabad
CR | Mysore 70 | Mysore
WD | 900 From Kolkata | Kolkata
______________________________________
The Places in column B are not at finite position and that is the big problem i am facing when using Left or Right function. Could anyone help me with a proper Excel function to get this done. The thing is the whole cells should be searched and accordingly the output should be obtained.

I have a workbook whose worksheets use protection (don't want my calculations stomped on).
When the Protection is on, the search function does not work. You call it up, write what you are looking for, it accepts it, and then when you tell it to search it ignores you.
When you turn the protection off, the search function works just fine.
HOWEVER....Other workbooks I have with protection on its sheets do not share this problem, just this one workbook. And the problem is on all sheets in this workbook. The problem is not on any of the sheets in the other workbooks. I can't see anything different between them, but then I may not know what to look at.

129(8769)
I would like a vba code to search based upon numbers in brackets i.e 8769 only and once it is found that row should be put in a new sheet.

Fall - Columns A-G
Spring - Columns I-O
Summer - Columns Q-W
Unduplicated - Columns Y-AD
I am needing to take each student in the Unduplicated section and see which terms they attended. If they attended a specific term, I need to grab a piece of data from that term and put it in over in the undulicated area.
The only way I could think to do this is with three separate searches. This is probably grossly inefficient and so far it has not worked at all. I have posted below the code I am currently using. Again this code is not workin at all.

Concatenated cells. My issue is how do i search through a sheet with cell values that have been concatenated?
Lets take an example:
I would like to search for a string call sales in sheet1 which would display all the employees and schedules for that department (do note that employees can be part of not just one department). but my cell formatting is as follows:
Sheet 2, Column 1
Employee name
E.g. Row 2 Employee1
Sheet 2, Column 2
Department (cells concatenated)
E.g. Row 2 Sales, Marketing (Concatenated Cell)
Sheet 2, Column 3
Work schedule
E.g. Row 2 8 AM to 5 PM
So when you search for sales, it will display employee1 and work schedule.

I have created a worksheet with 7 Tabs. 6 of the tabs are tables of existing parts and their catalog information. The Front Sheet I want to be a place where people can select data via a drop down or typed in, and in turn have that headsheet display the results of the search.
I have the 6 tabs broken down by part type, and figured those can easily enough be the first choice on my worksheet. So by picking that I can direct excel to which tab we want to run the search on, but ater that I'm drawing a blank.
For an example, say I'm looking for a Elbow that has a 6 size on one end. I would like to use the drop down to choose "Elbows" and then like to select/type 6 in the End 1 size box and have Excel show me all the reslts from the Elbow Tab that match that criteria.

I have a problem with excel that I have been trying to solve for the past 5 days! I have 2 tables (one with 500 rows, the other with 15000) that contain information about pipes.
The smaller table, Drift List, is to be used as a reference to fill up the bigger table.
Here is how Drift List looks like:
Size NominalWeight WallThickness APIDriftDiameter AlternateDriftDiam.
5.5 14.00 0.244 4.877 7.625
5.8 14.88 0.253 4.915 ----
...
The other table, Pipe Database, Looks like:
Size NominalWeight WallThickness DriftSize DriftType
5.5 14.00 0.244
...
I have to fill up Drift Size using APIDriftDiameter from the first table, BUT if AlternateDriftDiameter is available, I have to use that instead.
DRIFT TYPE column has to indicate either API or Alternate (Depending on which one I have used).
Here are the two files:

I need to figure out a way to search for a string in column D and then paste the entire row that string is in to a new sheet. I'd like for this to continue until I paste all of the rows of that string into the next sheet. This is what I got so far, and when I run it, it says an error occurs and then it says either press enter or paste. After I hit enter, it pastes the first row to the next sheet, but that's it. Also should I be doing this with a button?
Code:
Sub SearchForString()
Dim LSearchRow As Integer
Dim LCopyToRow As Integer

I'm trying to write a macro which will find members of an array on a sheet, highlight the column and then change the format of the column, what I have at the moment is:
Dim datearray(1 To 3) As String
datearray(1) = "Date1"
datearray(2) = "Date2"
datearray(3) = "Date3"
For x = LBound(datearray) To UBound(datearray)
Cells.Find(What:=x).Activate
ActiveCell.EntireColumn.Select
Selection.NumberFormat = "m/d/yyyy"
Next x
End Sub
The problem is, when I "F8" my way through the code, it doesn't seem to be finding the members of the array in the sheet.

I have been trying to find a formula for this but I have yet to find one that works for me.
Data;
English - United Kingdom, Czech, Spanish
UK - United Kingdom
Swedish
English - US
French
US
France
German
Portuguese
+8000 more various values
I am looking for a formula that can search for multiple values e.g. english, us, uk and united and then return the value "Yes".
I was looking for something that includes wildcard searches or contains so that it is not affected by upper or lower case but combining this with multiple searches was proving difficult.

Below is what I currently have on my excel spreadsheet:
1.
2. Input Column 3
3. 0 No
4. 2 Yes_2
5. 0 NO
6. 0 NO
7. 0 NO
8. 2 YES_6
9. 0 NO
10. 1 YES_8
11. 0 NO
The spreadsheet starts by the user inputting numbers ONLY in column 1 (under input). The rest is done automatically by implementing equations. Column 2's equation is easy, if the value of column 1 is greater than 0, return YES_(row number). In addition, the maximum number of Yes's in column 2 is three (constraint).
My problem is that I need a 3rd column, consisting of only 3 rows that search for YES_1, YES_2, and YES_3. The 3rd column's equation is easy, I will simply use the Vlookup function for YES_1, Yes_2, and Yes_3. Therefore the PROBLEM IS: I need column 2 to output YES_1 (in row 4, from the example above), YES_2 (in row 8) ...etc. This would mean chaning the basic IF equation that I have which simply sees if the value in column 1 is greater than 0 then outputting "YES_the row number".

I'm trying to code a macro to search through all the files in certain folders to find a value defined by the user. The rows containing that value will then be copied and pasted into a separate workbook. My boss currently planning on storing about 550 different files (90 days worth of data) between these folders, but there is the possibility of years worth of data collection, should he change his mind about the 90 days, so I'd like the code to be efficient if possible. What I've tried to do is search each file for the value, then set a range equal the first row containing that value. If the value is found in that workbook, the code loops through the worksheet, adding all the other rows with that value to the range. Then the file looping exits (the values I'm looking for are only contained in one of the workbooks) and the range is copied and pasted into the master workbook. Each workbook has only one sheet.
I'm currently getting a run-time error "13" Type Mismatch error when it gets to the line where the code is supposed to find the value and initialize the range.
Code:
Private Sub SubmitButton_Click()
Dim mybook As Workbook
Dim masterbook As Workbook
Dim rownunm As Long
Dim pathparts(1 To 5) As String
[Code] ......

I'm trying to place a pivot table in an existing sheet in order to have a list of names next to a P&L. I've got several criteria to filter the names, but when I apply the filters to the pivot table, not all the people show up. The weird thing is that the total at the bottom of the pivot table, which is a simple sum of time in a given month per person, calculates the correct number as if all the employees are there.
When I do the same table in a fresh sheet, in the same file, it shows correctly. It's only when I try to put the table in an existing sheet that it abbreviates the list.

I have this script (below, Krishnakumar orignally provided this script).
I'm trying to edit it to add cell values from cells C16 and E16 along with the worksheet name it displays in listbox2. So lets say worksheet "rollover" is the sheet being displayed in the listbox2.
I would like for it to look something like this:
rollover TT:'data from cell C16' TA:'data from cell E16'
Public FilePath As String
Public dic As Object
Public oWB As String
Public oWS As String
Public aWS As Worksheet
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim i As Long, wb As Workbook, n As Long
With Me.ListBox2
For i = 0 To .ListCount - 1
If .Selected(i) = True Then
oWS = .list(i)
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(FilePath & oWB, UpdateLinks:=0)
wb.Sheets(oWS).Activate
Exit For
End If
Next
End With

I need a formula (but most likely a VBA macro) that will search through a folder for a file than get data from that file. The files are named in systematic way, but I need the entire formula to work from inputting a mold number in one cell. E.g. I input 6291 in cell A2 the vba macro searches for file “6291 mold.xlsx” and returns a range of numbers as well as pictures in specified cells. Is this possible? If so how?
The closest thing I have found is VBA macro that retrieves a list of media files in a folder, I listed the code below.

I'm trying to use data validation to restrict the user to only selecting values in a list which I create. Right now, the list is a named range. I'd like to get rid of the range and just use a named list. I create a name using the following as my list.
Insert > Name > Create
Name: Fruit
Refers to:
banana,apple,orange
When I try to use the name Fruit in my data validation, I get the message "The List Source must be a delimited list, or a reference to single row or column." I thought my name "fruit" was a delimited list.
