Using InStr To Find Number Within A Number?

Jun 6, 2006

I work for a store and we're migrating to a new Point of Sale system. The new POS uses the entire UPC code while our existing one uses only partial UPCs, so I have to update from the partial to the full. ex. Partial 3378093 - Full 0033780935

The partial UPC will always be included in the full UPC, the difference is the dropped leading zeros (and possibly other numbers) and the check digit number at the end. What I have is a spreadsheet with with two worksheets (Old, New) - one has our old UPCs and other information, the other has the new, full UPCs and more information we'll need. What I want to do is write a function that will search through the full list of new UPCs to find the one with the old UPC inside it and return the full UPC. InStr seems the right function to do this - correct?

The part I'm having trouble with is writing something that will search through the full column of new UPCs using InStr. I've searched through the forum for a similar situation but the few I've found aren't working or appropriate. I don't want to include any code I've written because 1) it doesn't work and 2) it would be way too embarassing!

HLookup Find Minimum Number In Row Then Return Left Most Number?

Mar 1, 2012

Items in Column A1 are calculated by (B2/4+5)*1.4 Items located under the columns 2000, 3000, 4000, etc... 10,000 are calculated by taking the top number, eg 2000/(A1 cell value)+the column B number. 2000/7+0 = 286 (rounded numbers)

I need to find an way to look up for x number (2000,3000,4000, etc...) find the smallest number in that column and then return the value in column A1.

Find All Number Combinations In Dataset That Add Up To Specific Number?

Jun 3, 2014

I have attached an example. If I have a set of numbers such as the one attached, is it possible to create a formula that will show me all the combinations of numbers that add up to 55.52? In the attached I have highlighted in different colours all the number combinations that add up to 55.52. The numbers highlighted in blue appear within more then one combination. Is there a formula that can do this for me, instead of randomly adding numbers hoping they add up to 55.52.

Find Cell Value Row Number & Use For Column Number

Jun 2, 2008

to update these values via a form in this sheet. I can find the correct row to be edited by entering a value from column A and B. The problem is if I want display the values of that row first and then change it. If I want to change row 10 data how can I bring back the value in ROW 3 AND THE COLUMN VALUE? The next step would be to do the actual update if I want to change ROW 10 to "Ooi" and a sales value of 200?

This is what I have done so far:

Dim myRows As Integer

With Sheets("Mrt")

'Retrieve history information for row
For myRows = 4 To 49
If comboxDay.Text = Range("A" & myRows).Value And textboxdescription.Text = Range("B" & myRows).Value Then
textboxbedrag.Text = Range("C" & myRows).Value
chkBTW_Ja.Value = Range("D" & myRows).Value
txtNota.Text = Range("S" & myRows).Value
End If
Next
End With

Picture attached to show how sheet looks like.

Find Number Closest To Zero

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.

Find Number In Range

Oct 7, 2009

I receive a workbook from multiple vendors on a weekly basis. Part of the data in the workbook is their production schedule for each part. I need to pull the quantity out of the cell containing their production schedule, but the problem is each vendor enters thier data differently, (as seen in the attached sample workbook).

I know I could request that each vendor comply to a new format I could send out, in which date and quantity are in seperate columns, but this format has been in use for a long time, and most of them have automated the output, so I thought I'd try to fix it on my end first.

Find Number Closest To X?

Aug 14, 2013

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.

Find The Number Of Days

Jun 12, 2007

If I was to say have a date in cell A1, is there a formula which would tell me how many days from that date left in the financial year?

I was thinking an IF statement, but I know thats way off course! And it could get quite messy.

This is what I would like it to do:

Cell A1 - 30/10/2007

Formula - Finds the number of days between 30/10/2007 and the remainder of the financial year, which for me ends on 30/06/2007

Should give me the answer of "x" amount of days.

Find First Column With A Number

Aug 16, 2007

I'm having trouble coming up with a formula that will find the first month with a number in the 'Total' row (row 22) without using an array function or VBA. The months are in row 13 and can vary from 1 to a whole lot. The number of line items, column C, will also vary, but I wouldn't expect that to effect any function (aside from changing the row designation). Here's what I put together using an array function: {=MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(D22:L22),0)}

Again, don't want to use an array function. Other people will be using this and when they mess with it, i don't want them asking me why it won't work anymore.

Find Number Or Next Lowest

Aug 1, 2008

I have three columns with 1 number in each row. I'm trying to find a number, and if that number does not exist in the 3 columns I would like to find the next smaller number. The numbers have up to 4 decimal places. i.e. 16140.0311.

So for example if a user searches for 15950.012, and that does not exist but 15950.009 does with no numbers in between then the answer returned would be 15950.009. Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;I should probably mention that I would like to insert a new line with the number originally searched for, after the number found.

i.e. search for 15950.012. Not found. 15950.009 next lowest. Insert new line after 15950.009.
