Use Closest Date To Find The Starting Mileage Of Car?
Dec 26, 2012
I have a list with all our company cars (300). I also have a list with all the transactions of the fuel cards (12000 lines). Now I need the find for every company car (exact match) the nearest fuel-consumption-date (closest match to the given starting date) and take the mileage of that transaction. I've added an example. I have tried linking carnr and date (like carnr&"#"&date) and match these, but I don't always get the right car number.

I cells B5:B15 I have a list of dates from last year. I need a formula that I can put in cell D5 that gives me the date that is closest to the same day last year.
Example:
If today is 4/9/14
and
From B5:B15 there were the following dates:
3/12/13
3/19/13
3/29/13
4/5/13
4/8/13
4/12/13
5/6/13
5/29/13
Cell D5 would contain
4/8/13 since it is the date closet to same day last year.

I am looking for a formula to return the expected row/location in range B2:B13 as shown in col. F
Col. B dates are and cannot be sorted
The idea is to find the exact or the closest lower date to those in col. E
as per two criterias (col. D+E)
I prefer no helper column and no macro
(see attached WB)

I have collected some data on economic factors for different countries. Unfortunately, the dates when I started to calculated my economic factors are different for each country (due to the data available to me).
What I would like Excel to have done is to take the date when I started to measure for e.g. country A (D3 ie 30/06/2007), copy it into column "I" (for country A, it's cell I3) and fill in the following months in the rows below (with always the date of the last day of a month) until it reaches 28th of Feb 2013. Then, it should go up to the next country (country B) take the starting date (D4, ie 31/07/2007), go to the last entry in "I" (ie I71) and paste the date in, fill in the months until 28th of Feb 2013, do the same for country C and so on.
I have started to code a VBA but I am unfortunately a beginner in VBA and totally stuck at the moment. My VBA code does paste in the months but for some reason, it also changes the starting date of the first month.
Moreover, I tried a workaround for the fact that Excel doesnt know when to stop; ie I introduced a "monthdiff" variable which should calculate the number of months between the starting date (which is variable and unique for each country) and the end date (which is always 28th of Feb 2013). At the moment, it only does this for country A.
VB:
Set rng = ActiveSheet.Range("I3" & Cells(monthdiff, "I").Address)[SIZE=4][/SIZE]
I have tried to make this dynamic but have been unsuccessful so far.
Spreadsheet with data&code is attached.
VB:
Sub Macro1()
Dim mainrange As Range
Dim rng As Range
[Code].....

This is for mileage purposes. I have two sheets. 1st sheet I have Date, From, To, Mileage. I want the Mileage cells to automatically equal the mileage it is from and to. Right now I have it setup like this on the 1st sheet B7 is Date, C7 is From and D7 is To and E7 is Mileage. I have a drop down menu for C7 and D7 for our facilities such as Ming Ave (MNG), Coffee Rd(COF) and so on. On the 2nd Sheet I have the chart that show the miles.
example MNG to COF is 8.3 miles.

I have a list of mileage rates that correspond with different date ranges. For example the mileage rate for March 19, 2008 – July 31, 2008 was 50.5 cents per mile. I have 11 different mileage rates / date ranges from 2000 onwards.
I would like to devise a way that I could input the date and the number of miles travelled into the spreadsheet, then Excel would check the date entered in order to choose the appropriate mileage rate and calculate the dollar amount based on the # of miles input.
Here are the date ranges and rates in the event that anyone is interested in putting something like this together. I would be grateful for an example for one or two of the rates though and hopefully could extrapolate from there.
1/1/00 - 3/31/00 - 32.5 cents per mile
4/1/01 - 12/31/01 - 34.5
1/1/02 - 12/31/02 - 36.5
1/1/03 - 12/31/03 - 36
1/1/04 - 12/31/04 - 37.5
1/1/05 - 8/31/05 - 40.5
9/1/05 - 12/31/05 - 48.5
1/1/06 - 1/31/07 - 44.5
2/1/07 - 3/18/08 - 48.5
3/19/08 - 7/31/08 - 50.5
8/1/08 - current - 58.5

I am working on payment/cost estimator and am looking for some ideas and formula or macro help. Basically what I am trying to do is set up a calculator where you would input the payment you could afford and it will tell you how much you can spend on the equipment.
The problems I am running into are that when you factor in the interest rate and commission, the payments are round numbers so I need the formula to find the closest value.
Example- $250 payment. The payments in the table w/ the interest rates are $158, $248 and $350. I would need it to pick the corresponding equipment cost for the $248 payment.
Make sense?
If a macro would be easier I am fine with that, just have limited experience setting one up.

I need to find which number in a row would be closest to zero, then display the associated name. The number can be negative. I used this, which works well if all the numbers are positive: =INDEX($C$1:$E$1,MATCH(MIN(C66:E66),C66:E66,0)). I'm running into a problem when the closest number is negative.

In the attached sheet, I am using !Staff times columns N and O to nominate a mid point break time relevant to the start,lunch break and finish times of a shift.
What I would like to do is match the result to the closest time from !Race Times Column D (highlighted green). So if for example the mid point of the shift is 10:37 (as in !Staff Times cell N23), it actually comes back with the !Race Times result of 10:35 which is the closest actual race.
Ideally I would like it to look both sides of the midpoint time until it came to the closest match, rather than always looking at an earlier time, or always a later time (eg the cell N79 has a value of 11:36, however the 2 race times are 11:35 and 11:40. Preference is it shows 11:35). If however the N79 result was 11:38 or 11:39, I would prefer it went to 11:40).
However if this is not possible then picking the next time in either direction will do.

Say i had a col of random numbers, and their corresponding probabilities of occurring;
-32.33
0.001497
-35
0.001523
-32.06876
0.001551
-29
0.001579
10
0.001607
7
0.001636
-31.54628
0.001665
-18
0.001695
Neglect the nature of the sample, its just gibberish and not of concern here. The question is, if i enter a value in column C, how do i find the closest corresponding number to it in col A, and subsequently return its nearest corresponding probability from col B? For example, say i entered 8 in C1, then the formula would need to find the closest number to 8 in col A, which is 7, and return from col B the value of 0.001636.

I am wondering if it is possible to search a column full of assorted values which is unsorted, and then return the closest value.
I have written a previous thread which was similar, but misleading, i feel this thread is more to the point.
Currently i use this code, but it only finds the closest highest value if the data is sorted in ascending order.

I needed to know how to find the closest match to a reference number
regardless of whether its larger or smaller. I did a search and found a post
back in March that said to use the following:
=SUMPRODUCT(((ABS(list-target))=MIN(ABS(list-target)))*list)
I applied it to my application and it works, I just have no idea why. Can
anyone explain this formula to me or tell me where I can find a good
resource.

I have a database where I have groups defined. For example, Parent 0001 is called Bag1. It contains an apple, orange, grape, and a pear. Parent 0002 is called Bag2, containing an apple, orange, and a peach. So on and so on...
Below is an illustration of what I explained above:
Parent
Level
Description 0001
1
Bag1 0001
2
apple 0001
2
orange 0001
[code]....
I need a way to input items that are in the groups and find the groups have all of the items or the group with the best match. I need to know if the match is 100% or if it is only a partial match.
The bag might have 2 items or it could have 20 items and they can be in any order.

I have modified some code I found in these forums that once I enter a value in a cell I can have it find the closest match to that value and scroll down the list and paste that value as an offset. The code works perfectly, but my data will often contain the same values repeated and these aren't duplicates and I need to know how to loop the code to ensure it doesn't just find the first value but also the second (if the first is already populated) Code is:
Sub findclose()
Dim rng As Range, Dn As Range, Mx As Single, oAd As String
Dim num As Range
Set num = ActiveSheet.Range("B1")
[Code] .......
---- What I need to do is insert a loop of some sort that basically says IF my offset cell has a value then to find the next closest amount and continue the macro.
So if my list was:
700
50
500
600
500
And I wanted to find 499 then my list would look like:
700
50
500 499
600
500
BUT if I wanted to match off another amount of 501 it would keep the 499 it found and then find the 501 making the completed list look like:
700
50
500 499
600
500 501
Right now the amounts are being overidden as I don't know how to loop it...

I have a sheet of pump test results, placed in rows, where the test rig is set at a specific speeds and flow and it records pressure. At each stage of the test a number of snapshots will be taken (Usually between 3-5 at each stage), so I have 3-5 rows of very similar data. I only need to use the best row from the selection available, so I am hoping to find a formula or code (Don't care which) that can look at the results and select the row of readings where the speed AND the flow are closest to the targetted data.
For example: In cells G6:G8 I have flow result values 0.129, 0.151, 0.156 and in H6:H8 I have speed result values 72.536, 71.82, 72.13. These are actuals. In cell N6 I have the target speed (75) and in O6 I have flow target (0.15), but these could be moved anywhere to suit really. What I was hoping to do, but am struggling big time, was to just flag up the row of readings where these two values are closest to the targets by placing a check mark in column L:L which I have formatted in monotype sorts and would like to place a "4" (Which gives me a check mark) on the 'best' row. From that I can do more with some simple IF statements.
Is this feasible, or am I trying to do something beyond Excels capability, it is certainly beyond mine at the moment. I was looking at the check mark method, but that is not essential, so if anyone has any suggestions on an alternative means of identifying the best row of data, that might make it easier to do, then I am listening.

I'm looking for a way to split a cell with text into two cells. The first cell can only contain up to 40 characters, the rest needs to go in the second cell. However, I don't want the text to be split in the middle of a word. So basically, if the text is in cell A1, I need to find the closest space to the left of position 40 in A1, and move anything to the right of this position to B1. Example:
Original text:
A1: One green apple and a bucket of small onions that smell nice
I want to avoid this:
A1: One green apple and a bucket of small on
B1: ions that smell nice
I want to achieve this:
A1: One green apple and a bucket of small
B1: onions that smell nice

I have a list with random ordered numbers (each number in a cell of a row): 1, 2, 6, 8, 11, 12, 16...
On the other hand I get a value (x). I want a formula that:
- If x is in the list, returns x
- If x is not in the list, returns the next higher value. For example, if x=8, returns 11
I want also a variation of the same formula, that returns the next lower value. For example, if x=8, returns 6.
Note that x will never be smaller than the first number on the list or higher than the highest number in the list.

What I'm attempting to do is find what are the CLOSEST four indicator prices in data set #1 are above (r1, r2, r3, r4) and below (s1, s2, s3, s4) the closing price in data set #2. Also, I can only use the indicator numbers in data set #1 that are on or before the close price date in data set #2. Because of this, not all of the r's and s's will be filled in.
I would like to use just regular excel formulas, but I have a feeling that VBA may be my only option.

I would love to be able to click on an assigned button in a new sheet, and a pop box appears.
Then I can type in a word, click find, and the macro will go through my whole list of keyword phrases and find all the words STARTING with the word chosen in the pop up box.
Yes, I could just sort from a-z, find the word, then copy and paste etc.
But I work with large lists sometimes, and its just so much easier to type the word, click find and the macro returns the list of just the phrases with the starting word I've chosen
As a note. I did put a post up a while ago which a coder called Jindon solved which works perfectly. (A great job by the grand master)
This macro finds the words ending with.
So, what I would really like is exactly the same macro, but it finds words at the start of a phrases not the end of a phrase.
I'll post Jindon's macro now
Sub Find_Words_Ending_In()
Dim sTime As Single, res As String, msg As String, x As Range
Range("c3:c" & Rows.Count).ClearContents
res = InputBox("Enter word to find")
If res = "" Then Exit Sub
sTime = Timer
On Error Resume Next................

I've been turning this problem over it my head for the last day and can't seem to come up with a decent solution, so I figured I'd post it here to see if anybody else had any bright ideas.
I have a data sheet with a dropdown list on it to select the month and year that determines how the rest of the data sheet populates. Basically I'm giving weekly breakdowns of data for a month at a time, with the "Week Ending" heading (which are dates - Saturdays), populating off of the month and year selected from the dropdown.
So, to give an example, if somebody selects March 2008 in the dropdown, it will populate the week ending dates of 3/1, 3/8, 3/15, 3/22, 3/29, and then pull out the specific data for each week based on those dates.
What I'd like to do is write a formula that will find the first Saturday of the month. The way I have it jury-rigged right now is a list of months with the first Saturday listed next to it and a vlookup to grab the date of the first Saturday. I envision using this report indefinitely into the future and I'd like to avoid having to keep adding/changing the manual list of Saturdays, instead preferring to have a way to determine the date.

My data is set out in columns, where alternate columns provide day numbers for given years (we can call these type 1 columns), with adjacent columns containing values which correspond to those type 1 column day numbers (we can call these type 2 columns). There are about a hundred columns in total (50 of each type). I would like to get excel to return the three largest numbers within each type 2 column, but I want to exclude data within the type 2 column above the point which is adjacent to a specific (varying) day number in the type 1 column. The location of this point varies for all the type 1 columns, according to a third row of numbers (the look up start point), which are currently listed below the dataset in every type 1 column. So, for the type 1 column "year 1", I would want Excel to ignore the values 0 and 1, which are listed next to day numbers 78 and 79, and begin looking for the three largest values down the column starting from the value which is adjacent to 81 (which is a 2). In type 1 column "year 2", excel would start looking for the largest values from the cell adjacent to 78, so it would ignore the 18 at the top of the column,and would return 2 and 12. And so on.

I have the following formula to count the time between two dates and result in an answer with months/days:
=DATEDIF(E14,E15,"M")&" months "&DATEDIF(E14,E15,"MD")&" days"
The problem is that the function does not count the start date. Is there any way to modify this formula so that the start date is included?
For example if the start date is 02/01/2012 and the end date is 02/28/2012 it results in 27 days but I want it to result in 28 days or 1 month.
how to go about this or if there are any better date functions out there?
