I have a column of number that I want to use the Small & Large function on, skipping duplicates.
Example:
Column A has the following numbers;
1
6
1
4
3
2
4
6
17
8
21
8
10
13
I want the Small function to identify the first lowest number (1) and then the second lowest number (2), not (1) again.
I'm having a difficulty using LARGE and SMALL.I want to return the 1st to 5th value of an array (each in a different row) choosing months as criteria. While the LARGE formula works fine, when I replace the LARGE() formula for the SMALL() leaving everything else unchanged, the formula returns ZERO and there are no ZEROS in the original data! Here is the function:
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm writing an application in Excel, its a little over 5MB after I've run through UsedRegion and trimmed stuff, 94 worksheets. I'm encountering a fair number of crashes these days. My OS is fully patched as is MS Office. Running Windows server 2003 and Excel 2007.
I was wondering about the pros and cons of writing an application in one large workbook or many smaller ones. So far its been one large one but these crashes are really impeding my progress.
What's the best way to remedy these crashes or even start to diagnose?
I wondered if there is a possibility to make this
Range("L3").FormulaR1C1 = "=SMALL(R[-1]C[-11]:RC[-11],1)"
Range("L4").FormulaR1C1 = "=LARGE(R[-2]C[-11]:R[-1]C[-11],1)"
more simple so i can get the range for my small and large formula's variable? What i try to reach here is:
Range("L3") = smallest date In Range("A2", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
Range("L4") = largest date In Range("A2", Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
I have a data dump, on this single excel sheet their are a large number of tables, up to 100 in all, and what i need to do is extract key figures to form a summary table which i then produce stats for.
What i need is a macro or code that will automatically scan the tables, retrieve the key figures and return them in my summary table.
Attached is an example, you will see three small tables labelled Servicing query complex, servicing query simple and total.
I need to extract the blue cell, being the name of the table, the purple cell being the last figure in column c in each table (total number or processes) and the green figure being the the average turnaround. The final figure is i think the hardest to get as its the total number of figures in column c that have either a 0 or a 1 in Colum A. Note that their will be table where neither 0 or 1 will appear.
All figures are dummy figures but the table structure is correct.
I have sales data in columns, the right most column has values in it.
If I filter the data using the standard Filter, I can add only filtered records by using SUBTOTAL(9, filtered_list) and this gives me the answer.
How can I find the 2nd largest or second smallest ONLY from the filtered data without using a Pivot table?
I have a question about sorting. I would like to sort multiple columns from small to large at the same time. Is this possible? I have over 400 columns to sort so I would rather not do this one column at the time.
Example
A.... B.... C
0.2 0.4 0.3
0.4 0.3 0.5
0.1 0.6 0.1
shoud be
A.... B.... C
0.1 0.3 0.1
0.2 0.4 0.3
0.4 0.6 0.5
I understand how to find the top 5 /bottom 5 values using the large/small functions, but the question I have is: How do I get associated fields. For example I attached a sample sheet with values (Fields: Ticker,TE,Sector,Return). How do I get the Ticker,Sector that the return is for. I'd like to show all the associated fields that relate to the retun, but I can't find the solution on how to do that.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a file that has been produced using Statistica software. The file is supposed to have around one million rows, and when exported to Excel the file is about 30 MB. When I open the .xlsx file in Excel 2010 only two pages of data appear. The rows also have weird numbering. The first square of the A column is A1. The second is A3833, the third is A6789, then A8161, then A8162, then A8163, then A8164, then A18070.
The scroll button to the left of the screen is long, as if the document was only two pages long. When the scroll button is click-and-dragged a small beige square appears with a row number. This small square seems to be aware that not all rows are shown as it shows many more rows than are visible to me.
I'd like to use the SMALL() function in excel to pull out the second lowest unique value in a list, but I'm not sure there is a way to do this. For example, if the array is {1,1,3,10,2,6}, then SMALL(array,2) returns 1, but I'd like it to return 2. Is there a way I can modify this function or use a different one to achieve what I want?

What I want to do is =Look at the G(1:100) take the top 10 lowest value and write the correspondant title nearby.
I think it s possible with Min or Small functions, but I dont know how to, especially taking the title names nearby.

Suppose you have a dates mix in column A with year-month-day format, for example:
ABC12012-04-27Call to the Doctor at 9am
22012-05-13Chicago Concert
32012-04-14Buy ticket to theater
42012-05-03Take children to match
52012-04-07George birthday
62012-04-21Bring the car to inspection
7
And in Column C you want to get the first or the third date of a month, for example for April
Please see the attached worksheet for details. I would like the array function to search for instances of the word "FALSE" in column E and return the values of columns A:D when a match is found. I have done this successfully when the lookup value is a value in the first column of the range, but cannot seem to do so when the lookup value is in the last column of the range. I have received a #NUM! error each time.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI compile ratings for racehorses and am currently extracting the data I need using an array formula. Unfortunately there are are many thousands of lines of data and it can take quite some time for the data to pull through.
Here is a sample of the formula's I am currently using. I cannot take credit for the formulas by the way I found them on the web.
IF(ISERROR(INDEX('Database 2012'!$A$1:$B$300,SMALL(IF('Database 2012'!$A$1:$A$300=Ratings!$A3,ROW('Database 2012'!$A$1:$A$300)),1),2)),"",INDEX('Database 2012'!$A$1:$B$300,SMALL(IF('Database 2012'!$A$1:$A$300=Ratings!$A3,ROW('Database 2012'!$A$1:$A$300)),1),2))
Basically I have 2 sheets (Database 2012, Database 2011) with the horse names with ratings next to them for each run, One sheet for this season one for last season.
These are sorted in date order. then I have a ratings sheet that shows the horse name and then to the right it has columns for each of its last 4 ratings.
The formulas I use look for the horse name on the database sheet then put the rating in latest rating in the first column then the 2nd latest in the next column and so on until the last 4 ratings are shown. If there are not 4 ratings to find the is an iserror at the beginning of the formula to populate that cell with a blank so that the errors dont show.
What I want to know is there a way of doing what the formula does using VBA and more importantly would it be quicker than using array formulas which are very slow to recalculate when there are 1000's of lines.
In cell G1 I have my snapshot dates header and dates running from G2 to G31. Next to in Column H I have the sold items by Product A.
There are 6 different snapshot dates and I need them to be horizontal with a formula and none duplicated with the largest (newest) date first so I can SUMIF the sold item per date. If I simply pull a LARGE formula it will return 24-05-2014 in all rows is it is the biggest "value".
When I them add new snapshots (biweekly) then the horizontal snapshot line will automatically add the newest dates (i.e. find the largest or newest, the 2nd newest snapshot, the 3rd newest, etc. Hence, in K2 we would have 09-03-2014 with 672 sold items in K3 (via SUMIF), in L3 we would have 18-03-2014 and 7523, in M3 23-03-2014 and 1703, etc.
I'm not sure if I explained it well enough. I'm attaching a file if this makes more sense.

I am looking for the largest TOTAL SCORE in each division, but need to display 3 placings. Current error: If the score is a duplicate, it is repeating that score with the same rider.ALSO - I need to add the 'PLUSES' as part of the tiebreaker (i.e. 940 with 24 pluses would be 1st, 940 with 4 pluses, 2nd...etc)
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Big Question about the SMALL Function in Excel. I would like to know if it is possible to use a syntax that will make the small function update my graph dynamically.
Personnel transfer out of the Department on know dates... but they come in to the Department all the time. I would like to know if I can increase the "range of my data" even if I don't have data in the cells (i.e. B2:B6 have data, I want the range to include B7:B16, which has no data)... When I have no data in the cells I get errors/ circular references...
Ideally, I would like be able to add or remove personnel and the SMALL function would "organize/update" my graph dynamically. Is this possible?
(Excel for Mac 2011). The size of my data means am crashing by usual methods of sorting - I need a formula for this rather than pivot tables.
I have a list of c. 40,000 rows. Col A is client name (largely different but some duplicates); Col B is Policy type (eg Home, Motor, Travel) and Col C is earnings on that policy (eg -60). An example would be:
Name
Policy Type
Earnings
Johnson
Home
[Code]...
So I need to figure out (via a formula) two things:
1) How to count duplicate names (eg appearing 3x = 1 customer; appearing 2x = 2 customers; appearing 1x = 1 customer)
2) How to build a simple table to show the relationship between policies. This would have Motor, Home, Travel, Motorcycle as columns and also as rows - the data would then be how many policies and in each cross point?
I have tried just working the data using Countifs etc, but as soon as I apply it to the whole data set the machine freezes, presumably due to its size
I am attempting to use the LARGE formula to pull the top 3-5 percentages out of a field of 50-100, while using the INDEX/MATCH function to pull the corresponding "descriptor" that is associated with those top 3-5 percentages. (I need to do this across multiple data sets, but I can't get past this 'duplicate' issue) However, I am running into the problem when there are 2 percentages that are identical (WH 14 and WH 16 in pasted text below), then the INDEX/MATCH function only pulls the 1st "descriptor" and doesn't continue down to the Duplicate. how to tell excel to move to the next set of duplicate data and match the 'descriptor' to that data?
I have attached a file that should show what I am trying to do. These are the formulas I am using right now, pulled down into the 3 cells below them to get the top 3.

I'm trying to create a mini-table that will give me the 3 highest and lowest values in a range (I know how to do this using LARGE and SMALL functions), but I also want to get the corresponding name (in column A) for each number. This last part I don't know how to do.
I've attached an example sheet that I hope gives a basic idea of what I'm trying to do. I'm looking for a method to fill in the data for cells A13:A15 and C13:C15 in the attached sheet.
I could modify my worksheet a bit and probably get the result I'm looking for, but I'm hoping to come up with a nicer solution, and hopefully learn Excel a bit better in the process.
I was doing this task using sorting then adding column today morning one of my friend told i can do it with formula only, no need to using sort and adding new column
I just attached the sheet : without sorting.xlsx
Column C contains the names of real-estate brokers.
Column E contains the colors of the homes for sale.
Column Q contains the values of the homes.
I want to return the sum of the 50 most expensive homes that are yellow and for sale by Century 21.
I'm familiar with array formulas, and with the large function. I just do not know how to incorporate the large function within the sum/array formula.
I am trying to use the large function over two ranges. Even though incorrect I will include my original formula that doesn't work to help illustrate.
if(large((L20:L500,W20:W500),1)=I20,$P$4,if((large((L20:L500,W20:W500),2)=I20,$P$5,0)))
Does anybody know of an easy way around this?
Excel vlookup function returns #VALUE when the lookup value exceeds 256
characters. I need a hash function to transform large strings into a value
that does not exceed the 256 character limit.
I use a large function when ranking numbers in an array each month. I'm only interested in the top 5 numbers. However, there are occasions when the top 5 numbers contain a tie. How do you build into a large function, logic to handle a tie. Here's my function, which is very simple:
Code:
=LARGE(C$6:C$40,1)
=LARGE(C$6:C$40,2)
ETC.
I know how to use the large function when looking for a specific criteria as the example below illustrates:
Code:
=IFERROR(LARGE(IF('2012'!$D$1:$D$7="Green",'2012'!$C$1:$C$7),1),"-")
What I'm trying to do is take this one step further and not only find the nth largest numbers in a set of data based on a particular criteria, but also sum those numbers because they repeat in a table: for example a sample table is below:
Account Accout # Store # channel $ sales
A 1000 10001 green $100
B 1001 10011 green $230
A 1000 10002 green $120
C 1002 10021 brown $145
A 1000 10003 green $100
D 1003 10031 red $20
B 1001 10012 green $50
So what I'm basically attempting to do is bring in the nth largest accounts within the "green" channel. Now if these were the top 5 stores I was looking for, the formula from above would suffice. However since this deals with accounts and the account # repeat I need to bring in the total sum of those repeating accounts instead of just one of the unique stores. So if I was seeking the largest account (NOT store) within the "green" channel the correct values this formula would be:
Account A $320
I would imagine we would need to combine a sumif with a large function or maybe involve sumproduct somehow.
I'm trying to use the Large function with multiple cells to get the highest value of the cells. Excel won't let me use the following formula.
=large({a1,f1,j1,o1},1)
Any other ways to get the largest value from multiple cells with or without an array.
I have a large amount of data, in columnA a list of cars, columnB a list of engines, in columnC the city built, in columnD the country to ship, in columnE distance, in columnF the time.
Now some makes, city's and destinations match and sometimes the engine, but i would like to be able to say cellX = (time to ship) where cellA = Ford AND cellB = 1.8 AND cellC = London and CellD = Ireland
The key data is the city built and shipping destination, so i'd like to say if cell A3 = London AND Cell B3 = Ireland AND Cell A5 = Ford AND CellA7 = 1.8 then CellA10 = (distance) & CellA11 = (time)
Vlookup's are of no use due to the large amount of data. But is there a way of writting this command in VB?? or am i missing something in Excel?
I am trying to use the 'large' function to input data from multiple spreadsheets, but am uncertain how to do so other than to use the same rows/columns in each and to use only continuous worksheets (that is, I want to enter data from worksheet 1,3,5 and different columns in each, for example).
