Using VLookup - Search A2 And Copy B2 And C2 Every Occurrence
Jul 15, 2012
The attached wb will be used to schedule 10 machines. I have a dispatch ws that will have the machine # in column A, job/lot/ assy in column B, and load hrs in column C. there is a ws for each machine number. I want the worksheets for each machine to look in the dispatch ws, and return the info from B and C that has it's number in A for every occurence, currently it will return the 1st occurrence only.
I'm just new here as well as in Excel-VBA stuffs. I will appreciate if someone could help me. Here is the scenario. I have a data piled in a single column and different rows. Like this one:
how to search a defined range (using namned range and offset to last non empty row) and register row number for the first occurance of each ID using VBA. I made an example file where I need to search column A (search range using namned range "ID" and offset to last non empty row) and register rownumber for the first occurance of each ID in Column C.
I have a lookup table in which names of students and the planned session dates are available.
I need to create a chart that has Student Name and Each date of month. The chart should have value of 1 wherever a match is found in the look up table.
I am wondering if combination of searching for multiple strings (student name and date ) will work somehow. The below image explains my problem
Is there a way to have a formula search an entire row containing certian text, for example "x" and have the formula return the letter of the first column that text is found?
I am using vlookup to find the ORIGIN data and DESTINATION data but the subheading is the same for both- see below(site name, city...). How do I find the second occurrence for the same heading?
Is there another command that would be better?
col A col B Line#1ORIGIN INFO: Line#1 CONTACT NM Line#1 CONTACT PH# Line#1 CONTACT EML Line#1 SITE NAME Line#1 ADDRESS Line#1 CITY Line#1 ST ZIP CTY Line#1 DAY&WINDOW Line#1 LIVE/DROP?
Line#1DESTIN INFO: Line#1 CONTACT NM Line#1 CONTACT PH# Line#1 CONTACT EML Line#1 SITE NAME Line#1 ADDRESS Line#1 CITY Line#1 ST ZIP CTY
I have multiple automatically updating data sets and I need to extract certain data to perform calculations on, this is the format of the data
SPLIT AB H 2B 3B HOME 20 6 1 0 AWAY 20 7 2 0 SPLIT R HR RBI HOME 2 0 1 AWAY 3 1 4
basically, what I need is to extract the data for home and away, and put them each on one line, no problem if this is always the format, but there are other lines of data that I don't need thrown in there at times which shift the data up or down a simple vlookup will extract the first occurance of home, but I need another formula to extract the second occurance so I can have them all on one line and have the data as:
SPLIT AB H 2B 3B R HR RBI HOME 20 6 1 0 2 0 1 AWAY 20 7 2 0 3 1 4
What i have so far is: -3 Sheets (Sheet1 - Search, Sheet2 - Data, Sheet3 - Result) -Sheet1 has a userform ready to link up - this opens up when workbook and worksheet is activated. -Sheet2 has some example data to search - the search is for column 1 (see attachment) -Sheet3 has a template ready for the data to be pasted to.
I would like the search result is column 1 to copy the data from columns 1 to 7 to sheet3.
I want the template/layout to remain after the pasting of results. (everything protected from editing, if possible).
Once finished (ie go back to sheet1, i want the data from sheet3 to be cleared.)
I am writing a program which would look for look for the word " TOTAL" in sheet1 and then assign several values in sheet 2 based on cells offset of address of "TOTAL". This is repeated and down rows of sheet 2. Everything works except that it is giving repeating the first "TOTAL" address; i.e. it doesn't seem to go to the next met criterion.
I'm getting an export from a CDR. This export contains the date and times people log on and off from a queue. For logging in they dial 511, for logging out they dial 512. They get a voice prompt and type their password. I need to know how much time they daily spend in this queue
At first this looks pretty easy. I just make a sum of all the times they called to 511, then a sum of all time they called to 512 and finally I substract those values and I end up with the correct time spend in the queue.
The problem comes when they call multiple times to 512 without actually logging off. For example, they type the wrong password or simply hang up.
Result is this in the CDR
FROM TO DATE TIME 101 511 23/12 08:34 101 512 23/12 11:58 101 511 23/12 12:34 101 512 23/12 14:45 101 512 23/12 14:47 101 512 23/12 15:00
The actual time spend in the queue is 5 hours and 50 minutes. But Excel calculates this as 35 hours and 22 minutes, because it counts the 512 values no matter what.
How can I make sure that Excel only calculates the values of they are either the last value in the row OR if they are preceded by 511?
I am working on a spread sheet that searches for an employee's clock number, pulls the data from a particular week and displays it all on one page. I have 6 different tables of different stats, 4 weeks each and I would like to pull all of this data together. I have successfully created a page that when you plug in an employee's number, all of thier stats apear from all 6 data sets for the last 4 weeks. I do this by using ....
I need to do a vlookup on C1 in range A1:B1 that will return B1 if C1 contains the string in A1. I've tried using the TRUE variable in the vlookup formula which does not require an exact match. This works for about 80% of my data but is not 100% accurate. Of course I've got a long list of data ... not just the 3 cells.
I have a few tables on a worksheet, and to search these tables i am using a VLOOKUP, however i want to be able to search for other than just the one field! but still pull up all of the data. If i were to do the same tables in access i would be able to query all fields and then recieve an output of those that match, is there any way to do this in excel
Note I am only into basic VB. Other question i have is, on a VLOOKUP you only return the one record, is there anyway of searching a table of data and returning all records that hold that value in a specific field, like applying a filter to them. or am i just being extrememly dumb and missing something simple?
If I have a store number (say 1234) and I am trying to search for something which contains 1234 (i.e. the whole string of ABCD1234, ABCD1235, ABCD1236 etc) is it possible to do this in one VLOOKUP formula?
One way of doing it would be to VLOOKUP("ABCD"&"1234",....) but I would rather do it the other way around, to prevent the formula from not working.
I have a lookup table (see attached file) which holds the min & max value for a vehicle, the min & max size of the engine and the premium. I want a function that will search for the value of the vehicle (e.g. 100000 in cell H5) within the min value and max value columns as well as the engine size (e.g. 2000 in cell H6) in the min size & max size columns return the premium from the associated premium (which should be 13,200).
I get new worksheets on a regular basis which are of the same format (same columns with headers) and I have to perform both vlookups and sumifs on them. Their are about 12 different tabs I perform the vlookup on based a vendor name in A2 and its corresponding tab. I am tired of typing the same thing over and over again.
What I'd like to write is a Control Panel with all the equations so I can just copy/paste them in when I get a new sheet.
How can I write a vlookup which would search for the value which is one cell to the right of where I put the formula in?
Similar to: =vlookup(current cell over one, 'vendor1sheet'!A:C,3,0).
I would then want to copy it down the worksheet. Currently type in column E everytime I get a new sheet: =VLOOKUP(F2,'Vendor1'!A:C,3,0)
The catch
Column A has the vendor name, there are about 12 vendors, each with a different tab with related data which I am searching through.
Ultimately, I'd like to have an equation that would do the vlookup (and sumif) as described above and also use the vendor name in column A to look on a particular tab.
Something like: =vlookup(one cell to the right,'VendorTabFromVendorNameInColumnA'!A:C,3,0)
I was going to use nested if statements on a control panel sheet with a column for the vendor name and a column for the vlookupformula and than paste a single formula all the way down column E:
In column E, every row: If(A2=vendor1, 'controlpanel'!vendor1equation), if(A2=vendor2, 'controlpanel'!vendor2equation), etc.
Again, the vlookups would all check for one cell to the right of where this nested if statement was (located in column E, looking in F).
1. can i limit vlookup on sheet2 to search only a certain range of cells on a sheet1.
example, I want vlookup to look in sheet1, colum A - Y but only look between rows 1 and 100
2. If 1 can be done, and i happen to add a row in worksheet1 (making it 101 rows vice 100) will the vlookup code on sheet2 include that 101st row or do i have to redo the range manualy.
I have an XLS sheet filled with every zip code in the US... the zips are in multiple columns adjacent to columns with the corresponding county names.
Unfortunately, the there are up to EIGHTEEN columns of zip codes in each row describing the counties... not one zip per row. I'm assuming this was done to save space.
In another sheet, I have list of client zip codes and need to VLOOKUP the corresponding county from the first sheet. I'm certain I'm not using VLOOKUP right...I'm getting #N/A every time.
Is this because it's only checking the first column of zip codes? I need it to check all 18 columns of course... there are no repeated zips.
How do I do this without rebuilding the full zip database page?
I want to use vlookup up function to search for a specific data set. when it finds it i want it to look 2 columns over and add the value then continue to search for the specific data set again in the range provided in the vlookup, when it finds another matching the criteria look 2 columns over and add that cell value to the previous count.
keep a running total until it has looked through the whole sheet. here is an example of the vlookup i am using, it is not suming because thats where im stuck. also a quick data set to picture what i am talking about. In the data set in plain terms i want to look for the line name and add the qty on that line into a chart.
In the attached sheet I am trying to use the formula below but am getting a #NA error. I have narrowed the problem down to the use of the SEARCH and LEFT functions that I am using to determine the lookup value of the VLOOKUP formula.
what I am doing wrong? If I substitute the SEARCH and LEFT function with the number "14" it works just fine. You can find examples of both in cells B29 and C29 on the rename tab.
I have a sheet with Names in it. I need to look those names up and find which org they belong to. The problem is the the names have many characters after them, and many names belong to a few orgs, with a the rest belonging to many orgs. (See below)
I have been trying to get a Vlookup to work, but since it can't go left, it won't look up the orgs that don't own at least three names. And I can't get the search to work on the names.
I have a column of text strings in a2.a??? this is my data. Each text string has a persons name somewhere in it with other text around it.
In column c2.c??? i have text names of people names im searching for. eg. bob,jane,harry
what would be a pratical use of the vlookup function to return the name in column b2.b??? if the name from C was located in the string in A this is a non case sensertive requirement.
what i am trying to do is use concatenate in a vlookup to search for a resource number and date, then return another column in the array.
the formula looks like: =VLOOKUP(CONCATENATE(D7,$H$6),Roster_Allocation,7,FALSE) but only results in NA.
if i search for the resource number only, i get the correct result. also, the res# and date are concatenated in the table array. could this be related to the way excel is storing the dates (40241?) even though both concatenated fields look the same? i have also tried adding a new coumn which has the res# and dates concatenated as the lookup value but still all NA.
I am trying to search in a new workbook called RepricingFactors. The worksheet within that workbook is called Network Differences. I am searching for the city Louisville out of about 100 cities. Do I have this set up correctly???
I WANT it to search all of column A for the highest number in the range (which will change daily to a new high number above the highest currently), and return the value in column 4 (column D) that corresponds to that value from column A. This is what I have, but it is not working, it is giving me the number (1) in Cell A800 (which is the lowest valued number in my range. The numbers range in value from 1 to 762 with none repeating (they are sequential). The formula I have is : =+VLOOKUP(MAX(A76:A2000),A76:I2000,4)
Attached is the mock excel spreadsheet. I want to read "sam" from the lookup column's long text "sam is good" and then write "4" in the next column. Similarly read "white" from the long text "white is tired" and write "1". And so on,,,,, For more criteria, see box highlighted in yellow,,,,I used VLOOKUP but what am able to make it work only when there is one word "sam" in the lookup column. It returns #NA when the text is "sam is good". It should write nothing if none of the criteria is met and should keep doing until the last cell in the lookup column.
