I have a list of names in 1 column and I would like to be able to find out what name is most frequent and I'd also like to know how many times that name appears in that column.
Here is an example of what I'm looking for:
NAME
Most Frequent
No. of times they appear
[Code].....
I am using a formula that finds the most frequently occuring text from a range of cells that have the text 'Ra' 'Ma', 'Mo' or 'Mi' in them (each cell has a drop down list with these text items only). I am currently using this formula to find which of the four text items appears most frequently in the range:
=INDEX(D6:D15,MATCH(MAX(INDEX(COUNTIF(D6:D15,D6:D15),0)),INDEX(COUNTIF(D6:D15,D6:D15),0),0))
This formula works fine in a case where there is more of one text item than any other, but when there are two items with the same number of entries, this formula comes back with the item that fulfils the criteria first - i.e. if 'Ra' appears 5 times and 'Mo' appears 5 times, then either could come back, depending on which appears first in the range.
The text items rate in importance with 'Ra' being the most important, then 'Ma', then 'Mo', then 'Mi' is the least important. What I am trying to do is, in cases where more that one text item appears the same number of times, get the formula to display the one that is the most important. So for example 'Ra' will always appear over 'Mo' if both have 5 entries, but 'Mo' will appear over 'Mi' if 'Mo' and 'Mi' both have the most entries.
I have found two macros to do the job that I want. I would like them put into one macros What I want is to text to column and sort my data. Below are the two macros
[Code] .....
I would like to create a formula that will sort the numbers in column B, there are also equal numbers in this column
The difficult part is that there is text in column A, and is linked to the numbers
So if numbers are sorted the names should be sorted in the same way as well.

In this old thread (which the software did not let me continue) Yogi mentions 2nd mode and third mode etc.
[url]
In the above thread, Yogi has a nice formula for finding the "other mode", when the other mode is a tie. I am wondering - is there a simple formula
to find the 2nd (or 3rd) most frequent number. For example the (AFAIK non-existent) formula or function would act like this:
1
1
1
3
3
2
"modelarge(range,2)" should return 3
I have a column of names of people who have logged calls within a period. Some of these names obviously pop up more than once and I am wanting to report on those top 3 people who have logged calls in that period.
In short, I want the top 3 most frequent in a list.
I have an excel file which contains 59058 numbers ranging from 1 to 70 arranged in a matrix so they are from A1 to Q3474.
I need to find the most frequent number, the second most frequent, third most frequent and so on to the ninth most frequent number.
I am aware of the MODE function, but that function has 2 problems, it can only handle 255 numbers, and it only shows the most frequent number, and I'm also interested in the second most frequent number and so forth.
I have some data that looks like this:
Columns c through H
#N/A030016030037030037030037030016030037
I want to find the most frequently occuring value. These are not always numbers, so I can't use mode. Also, some of the columns may contain errors.
My normal formula for extracting the most frequent value would be:
=INDEX(C2:H2,MATCH(MAX(COUNTIF(C2:H2,C2:H2)),COUNTIF(C2:H2,C2:H2),0))
But this doesn't work for a horizontal list because match looks for the rownum.
I've tried using offset to get it to work, but either that doesn't work, or I don't know how to do it properly.
I have a need to look within a variable number of rows (but only a single column) and find the most common value(s) within that range.
If there is only one most common value, I return that value. If there's more than one most common value, I need to concatenate the values (if they are text) or average the values (if they are numeric).
how to find the least frequent Numeric value in a range - while the range is in ONE ROW or ONE COLUMN.
I am looking for a formula to find the least frequent Numeric value in a TWO DIMENSIONAL TABLE (A1:D50).
Is there a way to stick the option "Instant email notification" so it will not change unless I'll change it!
In a row i have : A1= 450B1=560C1=500D1=510E1=445F1=430G1= 420. Those values represent several weights of a product prepared in this case 7 times, now that i want to decide what is the most relative weight to use on my list, i need a formula to tell me what is the most frequent bin scored given a difference of 50 grs maximum. The formula should return the following answer : 400-450 which means that the most frequent weight bin is between 400 and 450 grs , now the 50 should be variable so if i change it somehow in the formula to 100 it should return 400-500 which means that the most frequent weight bin falls between 400 and 500 grs. Any smart frequency formula can do that?

I'm looking for a way to sort dates from several columns into a new single column (perhaps multiple columns if the entry columns become too numerous). I've included an example. There are currently only 4 columns, but there may be as many as 20 in the future, each with 20 dates under each heading. Any blank cells would be eliminated. If I filled a blank with a new date, that date would be placed into the chronological column. So basically, this would take the date from several different categories and create a single calendar of events.

i want to sort column D acsending, then column C descending. i want to do this using VBA because i cant just format the sheet because another vba macro paste the sheet thier which would rid the formatting. (i would do it myself everytime but it is for someone to make it easier for them and not make mistakes..i searched, just found a sum formula post)
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a column of data that contains alphanumeric ID codes, some of which contain no alpha characters (i.e., Excel treats them as numbers). When I do a data sort, Excel puts all the purely numeric codes first, then the alphanumeric codes. I want to sort the numbers among the alpha codes.
Example Excel sort order:
06090
10400
28198
34078
43321
0BKV9
1C7K4
2P776
3BTW3
4U744
Desired sort order:
06090
0BKV9
10400
1C7K4
28198
2P776
34078
3BTW3
43321
4U744
I know there's a way to do this, but I've spent half an hour looking and can't find the answer. And no, manually editing each numeric entry with an apostrophe is not an option.
I'm sure this has been asked many times before, but I can't seem to find an answer that works for my data. I have some data that is sorted by an ordered list (like a table of contents from an overly detailed book):
1.0
1.1
1.2
1.2.1
1.3
...
1.11
...
This list can be arbitrarily deep (although probably not more than ##.##.##.##), and because I'm using periods to separate the nested levels (can be changed), I've formatted it as text. This means when I sort the data using this column I get 1.11 before 1.2 (text sort order).
After lots of failed formula attempts I've resorted to using an additional column with hand-entered values to sort by so it will sort correctly:
1.00.00
1.01.00
1.02.00
1.02.01
etc
but I'm hoping someone knows a more elegant way to do this, or at least to generate this column without typing so many zeroes!
What formula will sort the infomation in the first column into the other relevant columns.

please see the spreadsheet, data are downloaded in bloomberg (I have broken the links already). I have some macro written to perform sort on every column by clicking heading in row 1,
I know excel usually stores the date in a number format but I can't change the date format here since data is downloaded in Bloomberg (I have also asked Bloomberg, format is fixed). But if I select the whole sheet and go to data -> sort, Redemption date as ascending then select "sort anything looks like number as a number", it works. I don't wanna do in this way, I would like the clicking label to sort, so in macro, I think I need to firstly convert the date into an integer then perform the sort, how can I amend the coding to accomodate this?

I've got data in a table that has am induvidual "job number" assigned to each row, but this job number could have a variation such as 1000A 1000B 1000C but they may not necessarily be one after the other in the table (other job numbers may appear in between) so i need a to macro to remove all job numbers lets say that start with 1000 and paste them and the end of the table. so i end up with consecutive numbers. Can this be done? I've played around with the find funciton to loop through the column and find all relating job numbers then cut the entire row but cant quite seem to get it to work

I have one column of names that has been entered as "first and last name" as one entry and I would like to sort by the last name (the last word in the column). Some of the entries are simply first and last name (e.g. Jane Doe), some are spouses together (e.g. Frank and Elaine Smith) and some contain middle initials (e.g. John Q. and Amy X. Public).
