To Display Most Repeated Text / Value From A Range Of Cells
Feb 9, 2009
In my excel sheet i have few results displayed in range (same row different column with few banks cells in between). No i wish to display the most repeated value / result from that range into another cell on a different sheet of the same workbook. Can somebody help please.
Please note that the data (that is displayed in the cell rage from where i wish to get the most repeated one) is a the result of a nested IF statement.

I have the following formula that is supposed to grab a value from C2 and check for that value in a range of cells and if it matches it is supposed to display the corresponding value in another range of cells. What am I missing??
I am trying to auto-populate text in cells in area A, based on data I enter into other cells in area B. I want the area A cells to be for display only, as all editing will be done in area B. The problem is: how do I do this such that the text I write does not get cut off if is longer than the column width? See the attached document for a clear example and description of what I am trying to do...
I'm trying to have text in a specific column output a letter, only if every cell in a range of 4 contains the letter Y (yes). Using IF/SUMIF formulae I have managed to get he final cell to output the text, but it does it if ay one of the range of four cells contains the data, not all of them, which Is what is desired.
Attached is an example of what I'm looking for. Example: Column A has all the month names with a defined named range of crnt. D6 has a data validation display with a value of Nov 09, I need E6 to display Oct 09 automatically from the data in Column A. Basically I need cell E6 to always display the previous months text based off cell D6. I think the example sheet explains it better.
I am trying to nest a formula with IF & AND to work out a RAG status. I have 2 questions per row (in Columns I:J) which will be answered either Yes or No. For each combination I need to give a RAG status in Column K – e.g. two Yes replies give Green, 2 No replies give no and one No out of 2 will give Amber
Below is hoped for response in Column K:
ColI---Col--- JCol K Q1----Q2----RAG Yes---Yes---G Yes---No----A No----Yes---A No----No----R
I am trying to get two cells to be used to adjust other cells on the same sheet repeated times.
In a inventory sheet I have 5 columns as such , A1 previous balance, B1 Qty received, C1 qty on hand, D1 last cost, E1 current avg cost What I want, is to be able to enter my weekly received items in the B1 Qty received and the new cost in D1 Last cost cells and have them calculate my current average E1 and update my qty on hand C1 total. This in itself is not the biggest challenge. I was asking if there is a way that after the E1 current average cost and C1 qty on hand are updated by that formula, that the next time I enter a new B1 qty received and new cost in D1 Last cost cell they will update again basically without changing the earlier calculations achieved .
Example: Today I have item X with a A1 previous balance of 10 , with a D1 last cost of $1, and E1 current avg cost $1
I want to receive B1 10 more today at $.50 D1 last cost, which ideally would end up showing
A1 previous 10 (or 20 if adding) , C1 Qty on hand 20, D1 Last cost .5, E1 current avg $.75
Next week I want to receive B1 10 more at $.25 D1 last cost , which then would update showing
A1 previous balance 10 (or 30 if adding), Qty on hand 30, Last cost $.25 and E1 current avg $.58
I'm trying to find vehicle make and model in a cell containing a lot of text and then display that in the formula cell. For example if A1 is a paragraph that contains somewhere within it "Ford" & "Ranger". I want B1 to display "Ford" and C1 to display "Ranger". I have a list of vehicles makes (column A) and models (column B) on a seperate sheet.
I have some dynamic named ranges in sheet1, and in sheet2 I have data validation dropdown list which has the names of all the DNR's in it.
What I want it to do (in sheet3, no less) is for the user to be able to pick a named range from the dropdown list, and have a particular column in sheet3 then display that entire named range.
I have made a 'data' worksheet which is the source for the data validation in sheet2. Each item in the list identically matches the name of each of the named ranges. I was hoping to be able to use some form of =INDIRECT but alas, no such luck.
So it's almost like a copy and paste function I'm after, where:
If you pick "Schedule_From" out of the DD-list, then DNR 'Schedule_From' is what is pasted in Column B in Sheet3.
There will be anywhere from 1 to 5 values in each of these columns, but not successively. There will be several blank cells inbetween these nonblank cells, which I need stacked neatly into the first five rows at the top of the worksheet.
Example:
(A10) - Apples (A17) - Oranges (A23) - Peaches (A38) - Some other fruit of your choice...
(B14) - Toyota (B21) - Honda (B44) - Mercury...........
I need to identify repeated code with different text value. The codes in B column appears repeatedly in the list. However some codes have different text value (one time appears with public and another time appears with priv). I would like to identify those codes as 1 if they appear with different text value within the list. I highlighted one code 131775 for reference.
Is there a way to make a cell display the text difference between two cells?
For example of cell E2 reads "Thank Goodness it is Friday" and cell F2 reads "Thank Goodness" can I put a formula in H2 that will show the text that is in E2 but not F2 ( "it is Friday")?
I have a range of cells with numeric values or blanks. I set up a Conditional Formatting rule with this range selected: New Rule > Format only cells that contain > Format only cells with: Blanks; then I set the formatting to a light green fill and on the Number tab > Category = Custom > Type: "blank"
The blank fields get the light green fill, but no text; that is, the value displayed is still blank.
I go back to edit the CF rule and change Blanks to No Blanks. The results are what I expect: the cells with numbers display the text blank and have a green fill; the blank cells have no fill (white).
This is my testing criteria. I eventually want the empty cells to display 0 (zero). I tried setting Custom > Type: 0 (the number placeholder zero) and Type: "0" (literally the number zero), and neither works.
I have tried this with Format only cells with Cell Value equal to [the address of a blank cell].
I tried to set the value as "" but kept getting =""""; and ="" became ="=""" ???
I have tried this with Use a Formula... using the len()=0, isblank(), and other approaches, all with the same results.
I also made sure the option [x] Show a zero in cells that have a zero value is checked.
With all approaches to identifying the blank cells, they ARE obviously being recognized as blank values: the fill color is being applied to the right cells; and when Not Blank is the criterion (or a negation of a formula), the blank ones are not formatted. But blank cells will not display the text as defined in the Custom Formatting.
And this isn't an issue of "If the cell displays 'blank' it's no longer blank, so the rule doesn't apply" - HERE'S WHY: I set up a second CF rule that sets the Font to red when the value is greater than zero and had this CF rule follow the CF rule for No Blanks (the test above that works). Cells with positive numbers displayed blank in red, cells with zeros or negative numbers displayed blank in black. This clarified that the actual value of the cell is being evaluated, not the displayed value after Custom formatting is applied.
I got work sheet with all data, and i need something like, if cell A1 = Left, and cell A2 = right, display only a range of data, say all data in row P to R and row U to W only accordingly to the criteria i set in a new worksheet in same workbook. And i need the display data to update automatically everytime i change the criteria.
is there a formula which can locate instances of same text even though due to spaces it may look different? for example, "bad apple" and "badapple" are essentially the same.
I know how to turn the autocomplete on and off but I don´t have a clue where I configure the data range or the cells to display the list when the combo box is clicked.
I am assuming that this is done in the Edit mode at "linkedCell" and LisfFillRange ... yet I can´t get this to work.
I have a work book with several (couple of hundred) buttons, which when clicked display the contents of a range of cells in a message box as shown below;
I have this info on my excel spreadsheet plus 500 more lines. What I am looking for is if a name repeats then the info in column 2, 3, 5 and 6 for that name needs to be brought to new row. Example would be if I used the name karen on the next row then I would like her info from the desired cells to auto populate so I don't have to keep entering them and so on with new and old names. I have been trying to get this done for months know and have had no luck. My sheet already has over 500 lines of names and it would be nice if I could use the data from the past as well as the future to populate these cells.
I try to write the function that gets some "ref" and returns appropriate item. For example: if I give to function "C3", it returns "AAA" if I give to function "R18", it returns "BBB" (cause it between R15 to R26) if I give to function "R9", it returns "BBB" also.
What I want to do is Average out a range of cells "F4:F343". That's the easy part =average(F4:F343). However I want to exclude any numbers for that average if data in coloumn "Q" = "FMC"
Would that look anything like:
=average(F4:F343)/countif(Q4:Q343, "<>FMC")
I'm also displaying it as minutes in a day so i added *24*60 to the end of the formula and formatted to Number/.00. I've entered the formula and it will calculate but when i enter FMC to the appropriate area the average wont change.
How can I FILTER a range and display the unique items, one below the other, WITHOUT blank cells - with only a FORMULA. What I came up with is shown in the attached WB. I would like to present the countries like in C11:C15.
