I have a column which contains names e.g
Mr D.H.JONES
Mr Derek Harold JONES
I want last name first,then space,the other names. This is because I am using VLOOKUP and the sheet I am looking up has the names in this format.
I have a long customer listing, names 5 to 36 characters and several with their location in the name as well as a few common duplicate names. I am trying to produce sheet where the customers name once selected opens in the customers spreadsheet and data can be added/amended for sales etc.The lists are not in alphabetical order as when created a customer number is automatically allocated. My aim is just to type in the first letter of the name and the dropdown appears the customer is selected and their card appears. I have tried data validation, lookup, vlookup, Dropdown and Match/find. they only return the first record found and no sign of any others. Find returned all instances of the letter appearing in every name.

How do I convert the above to using Sheet Codes Names, Sheet1 and Sheet2?
Want to ensure my code will work if the user changes the sheet name.
I have a worksheet with many tables that I use in formulas.
I like tables for a couple reasons, one being the ability to insert/delete rows without affecting the rest of that worksheet row.
Also, automatic copy of formulas/formatting is great.
But, what I really like about tables is the ability to use the naming conventions in formulas.
Problem is when I save this worksheet, after I close it and open it back up, all table references in my formulas have been converted to cell references.
Example:
Code:
=IF((SUMIF('Quote 1'!$M$28:$M$43,">"&'Quote 1'!$J$57:$J$60)*'Quote 1'!$G$57:$G$60)+(COUNTIF('Quote 1'!$M$28:$M$43,""&'Quote 1'!$J$57:$J$60)*'Quote 1'!$G$57:$G$60)+(COUNTIF('Quote 1'!$M$28:$M$43,""&tblOSSRV[Min Order Cost])*tblOSSRV[Cost / Part])+(COUNTIF(tblFam[[#Data],[Qty by Factor2]],""&tblOSSRV[Min Parts Per Line])*tblOSSRV[Cost / Part])+(COUNTIF(tblFam[[#Data],[Qty by Factor2]],"
Two part question:
1) I'm relatively new to arrays, but what I need to do is generate a list of file names and the sheets within each one. I would like to use an array for this, but since I don't have much experience.... well....that's why I'm here. Can someone point me in the right direction?
2) And the second part of this.... I was planning on using the FileSystemObject to determine the files in a selected folder and loop through that list of files, opening each one and harvesting the required info (file name and all sheet names). Should I use the FSO or is there something built into Excel that might be better (and also limit the number of dependencies for this little "project" of mine).
Is it possible to produce a list on a new worksheet of all sheet names and their their internal names within a workbook?
If so I would like the tabbed name's to begin in say A2 with the corresponding internal name in B2.
I am using Excel 2003 and Windows XP.
I have been given a list of my firm’s target clients (in excel) and an opportunities report (exported into excel) from our CRM system, which lists all the opportunities (i.e. opportunities to sell/provide products/services) that have been created for each client. Some of the column headings in the opportunities report are as follows:
Client; Opportunity ID; Opportunity Name; Opportunity Description; Created by; Date Created etc.
What I need to do is lookup each client, from the target clients listing, in the opportunities report to see whether an opportunity has been created; and if so, return the row of values (i.e. the Opportunity ID; Opportunity Name; Opportunity Description; Created by; Date Created) for that client. The result will be placed next to the name of the client in the target client worksheet.
I have a couple of problems. Initially I tried to use the VLOOKUP function to lookup the client name in the opportunities report and return the Opportunity ID (I then planned to use the same formula to return values from the other columns); however, as the client names in the target client listing were not always written the same way as they were in the opportunities report, the formula often returned #N/A. The formula I used was
=VLOOKUP(A8,'Opportunities Report'!A2:F51,2,FALSE)
So for example, the first client that I was looking up was written as “ABC Ltd” but in the opportunities report it was written as “ABC Limited”.
My second problem was that for some clients, there were multiple opportunities listed in the opportunities report. Where this was the case, there was a separate row (repeating the client name in the first column) for each opportunity created. I think that was messing up my VLOOKUP formula as well.
Is there a way to look up the client name, from the target client listing, in the opportunities report even if it’s slightly different and return the row of values for each opportunity created for that client on a separate row?
I have a list of names in a single cell. They are all seperated by a comma, then a space. Example would be: John Smith, Steve Wilson, Wallace O Malley, etc. What formula could I use to pull out the names individually, starting from the farthest right?

Basically all the last names - which are all capitalized - would be moved to the end of the text string. Of course any leading spaces should be removed and I guess using the Proper() function, all capitalized words could be capitalized in a standard way.
I found the following function, here: [URL] ...
but what it does is just take the capitalized words and separate them into a separate cell, which is not all of what I want.
create a script that will replace the names in column A on sheet1 from a Master sheet in the same workbook?
The problem is that different users are entering data on sheet1 col A in different ways example someone may enter Johnc or John C Or John What I want is for something to run down col A on sheet1 and look for the like name on the master sheet if the name matches then do nothing but if the name is like another name on the master sheet then replace the name if they are almost alike.
I need to create a function that selects 4 names randomly from a list of 15 names and displays the 4 randomly selected names in the one cell. Also, you cannot repeat the same name in that cell, (i.e. bob cannot be selected twice in his group of four)

Here's what I'm trying to do:
In a spreadsheet I have a series of names with associated data, for instance: ...
I have a database output file where one of the columns contains managers names, often more than once. I want to apply an autofilter on manager name and then copy the result to another sheet or sheets. My criteria for the autofilter is a variable pointing to a list of names that at present I maintain by hand; a for-each-next loop then cycles through the names.
What I would like to do, before running the autofilter code, is to create the list of names via code. This would then automatically pickup names that are missing.
The code I have so far is below:
Public Sub find_managers()
Dim managers1 As Range
Dim names1 As Range
Dim n1 As Variant
Dim n2 As Variant
In my mind it should check the names in the unique list against the imported list and add any missing names.
I have the list below and would like to create a new list which contains only names with corresponding values and lists them.
+ A B
1 James 3
2 Derek
3 Brett 6
4 Allan
5 Jess 7
6 Sam 10
7 frank 10
The solution should look like:
+ A B
1 James 3

I need to compare two lists of client names. One list has 59k names to be compared to second list of 1000 names.
The list of 59k are listed in column D and the other list is in Column E. I tried conditional formatting but unfortunately some of the names are slightly different I.e. fair point communications vs fair point communications inc. I was trying to put in v lookup with a trim function but it didn't seem to be working.
I have two columns listing about 400 and 500 names respectively.
First Column has names in alphabetical order and the second column is random.
One column has names in this format: Last name, First name
And the other column lists the names as first name and then last name without the comma
I am trying to see if the list of names in one column exists in the other.
Is there a way to see this without changing the format of the names in each column? If so do I have to erase the comma?

I have a task I would like some assistance with…
I have a work book that I have to copy over 70 times for over 70 work locations. As you can see, this will require different file names for each location.
I would like some have help with a code that I can use. If possialbe I like a code that will make copies of the file renaming each with the names I have on another list. Is this feasible?
I would like to hyperlink the names in sheet 1 to the same names in sheet two. Is there a way I could do this using a formula rather that do each one by one?
View 3 Replies View RelatedColumn A contains a list of names, Column B contains scores. I'd like Column C to display - say - the average of all B scores for each A name.
Should be rather simple, but I can't figure out what formula to input into C - particularly since some names appear more/less than others.
I imagine there is a way to do this using a conditional formula, but I can't seem to figure it out...

In trying to better this project i am working on, and getting great help from this forum, I have a new question. Is it possible to swap data in a cell on the fly either through a button, check box or radial?
What I have is a "bid" area on a work book that is supplied info based on the user choice. So what happens is the user goes to a part page, picks and item, and then clicks a button to add the item to a bid sheet. From there the corresponding cells are auto filled via VLOOKUP. The item that is transferred is the part number; also this is what I would like to “swap” on the fly. The part numbers have generic descriptor (which I already have stored on another sheet along with the rest of the data that is auto filled via VLOOKUP) but because the user is transferring that data for VLOOKUP to work I am not sure it can be done.
I have an worksheet with 10 following columns, the columns may be in whatever order.

I am looking for optimal algorithm to swap between columns. I need to get the order like in a list.
i have one Column that is 41 rows and contains the words Yes Or No (N2:N41). I have second Coloumn with names in every cell (A2:A41).
Now i need to get in a second sheet all the names that are on the same line as Yes.
I have an excel sheet with first and last name and I have another column called username.
The username will be "firstnamelastname" all lower case and no spaces.
I know I can use C1=lower(&A1""&B1)
With the following list on Sheet1, on Sheet2 I want list only the Names that don't have a value next to them:
Aaron
Abigail 6
Alexander
Alina 24
Allan
Andrew 5
Ann
That sounds so easy to explain, but I am baffled as to how you can do it with a standard if function without getting the following type of result (this list could be up to 200 names - I only want ones that don't have a populated field next to them):
Aaron True
Abigail
Alexander True
Alina
Allan True

Can this be done with a groovy IF and INDEX formula, or is VBA (of which I have very limited skills) the only way to go?
I'm doing an Excel sheet for names, phone numbers...
I'd like cell A1 & B1 to capitalize the the first and last name.
I have a list of 900 names in excel and I need to find certain individuals by last name. I can get a list of each person I need to find...lets say 20 last names. These names are in the 900 but I would need to use the find feature and look one up at a time and this will take forever.
Let’s say sheet one has the 900 names and sheet two has the 20 names. Can I find the 20 names in sheet one quickly or do I have to use the find feature to search one person at a time on the first sheet with 900 names?
Knowing Excel adapts its formulas upon inserting a row (i.e. a sum formula will automatically include a new row inserted in the middle of its range). Is it possible to do this with a named range. I have a pivot table that serves as a table for a vlookup, but the table sometimes changes month to month with extra accounts. I need to be able to keep the formula even though the table changes, so I figured a named range would help me out but it still doesn't accomplish what I need it to do. So basically, is there a way to make the Named Range, say AGroup (A1:C5) extend to (A1:C7) if 2 new rows are added in?
