Using Partial Strings As Argument For Sumif()

Jul 16, 2009

I have a 100 element header row. Each cell represents an account. I want to sum the amounts of each subsequent row if the word "saving" shows up in the header. For instance, there may be "saving 1" "Savings for Xmas" "Savings 2" in the header row, and I want those to trigger the sumif function.

Basically I want something like sumif(B2:B101,exact(left(B2:B101,6),"saving"),A2:A101)

Counting Partial Strings

Jul 31, 2009

I don't know what's wrong with this it's not working..

=COUNTIF(SEARCH("radio",A2:A20),"")

i just want to count all the cells from a2 to a20 that has a word "radio" from that cells. Since a2 until a20 have different words like tv power, radio blaster (this should be consider because there's a radio word on it) and so on.


if i use only =COUNTIF(A2:A20,"radio") the word should be exact "radio" and it wont consider the word "radio blaster".

Finding Partial Strings From Array Of Values?

Aug 16, 2013

I have a table with three columns, column 1 is a list of names, column 2 is where I want my result to appear, and column 3 has my array of search values. Column 1 and 2 could have any number of rows with values, but column 3 will have less values. It looks like this if it's working right:

Item List
Result
Search List

[Code].....

What I am trying to do is for each cell in column 1, I want to see if there is a matching value in column 3 - it has to be either an exact match or a partial match (i.e. the string appears somewhere in the values of column 1).

I have been trying to use MATCH like this:

=ISNUMBER(MATCH($A2,$C:$C,0))

but it does not return true unless the match is exact.

way to get these partial string matches to work?

Copy Partial Strings From One Cell To Multiple Cells

Apr 5, 2007

I am trying to copy partial data from Column A into Columns B and C, then I want to delete Column A without affecting the results in Column B and C. Column A consists of a stock number in the format "1234-56-789-0000" (including the dashes) and is formatted as TEXT.

I'd like to paste the "1234" from Column A into Column B and the "56-789-0000" from Column A into Column C AND remove the dashes (-). I need to do this for the range (or number of rows) that is populated in Column A. This could be as many as 50,000+ rows of data. After this is done, I want to delete Column A. I tried using the LEFT and RIGHT formulas, but they are dependent on keeping Column A intact.

........... A .................. B .............. C ......
1234-56-789-0000 ..... 1234 ..... 567890000

and then eventually like this:

. A ............. B ......
1234 .... 567890000

On occasion, leading zeros in Column C have disappeared, and it's necessary it stay in a 9-digit format. There are 2 additional columns of data, but they shouldn't be affected by the above.

SUMIF - Text Strings With Numbers / Exact Matches / Asterisks

Jun 19, 2013

Doing some job costing on our lowes invoice and am using SUMIF and asterisks to account for all the different names that get used for properties by the cashiers. An example of that range column is:

67TH AVE
19112 PONCA

51ST
STERLING

9420 67 ST
1503 SW 13TH

51ST
10818

19112 PONCA
19112 PONKA

I have formatted this whole column as text and get strange results from sumif when there are exact matches. For example the "10818" string is uniform through the spreadsheet and returns a result of 0.00 if entered as "*10818*" for criteria but returns the correct amount if I use "10818" or 10818 with no quotes.

It seems to be related to the text strings that contain just "numbers" as I'm having no trouble picking up exact matches when there are alpha characters.

SUMIF When Cells Contain Strings Found In Range Of Cells?

I'm looking for a function (I'm thinking 'SUMIF') that will search through column A of Sheet 1 and add column B of Sheet 1 when the cell in column A contains one of the strings listed in column A of Sheet 2. I can only find information when searching for single strings or cells.

Essentially I imagine this involves the FIND function at some point.

Excel 2007 :: Match Partial Text When Partial Text Is Not Exact

May 20, 2014

This is for Excel 2007,I have two sets of model numbers. One set is the full model numbers of the units we use, and the other is an abbreviated form used to lookup up certificate numbers. I need a way to match these up so I can use one set of search criteria to find out if there is a match. Here is an example of what I need to match with a partial text match:

H,AE35(6,9)36+TD and AE3563636D145C2501AP
H,RE36(6,9)36 and RE36936C145B2505AP

if I could do this with a formula that matches multiple items at the same time (ie; if A & B & C match=true) with the above model number being one of those items (certificate numbers are issued for sets, but the other model numbers are fine).If that's not possible, a one time VBA run to match all of the abbreviations at once would also work. If these items are matched up with a one time VBA, the VBA needs to account for their being more than one match for each abbreviation depending on the size of the unit.

So H,AE35(6,9)36+TD could be matched to:
AE3563636D145C2501AP
AE3563636D175C2501AP
AE3563636D210C2501AP

Formula- To Pull Cell Values Similar To A SUMIF Function (SUMIF(range,criteria,sum_range))

Oct 25, 2007

I am trying to pull cell values similar to a SUMIF function (SUMIF(range,criteria,sum_range)). For example, in A1 I use a data list created from data elsewhere on the spreadsheet. In the data I created elsewhere, there are 2 columns being used. The 1st column is the information that is being used to create the list and the second column contains specific values (number or text). In the dropdown menu I select an available value (text or number) . When I have selected that value I would like cell A2 to show what the cell directly to the right of it shows from the data I have elsewhere in the spreadsheet as mentioned. I have tried the SUMIF function however it seems to exclude certain values (number or text) and I am not sure what else to use.

I need to perform 2 SUMIF's on 2 columns of data to return a result and I'm not quite sure the best way of doing this. I'll give an example below.

I have 2 columns of data, both numeric and the SUMIF needs to say if H1:H100="10" and also if J1:J100="907". I can perform one or the other but not both.

Pass Argument To A Sub From Another Sub

Jul 19, 2007

The second subroutine below selects a range of cells, in this case a column. It selects a range that ends with the last cell that has data and starts with either the first cell that has data or the second cell has data (needed for instance if the first cell is just the heading and doesn't contain data). You'll notice I have hardcoded the "includeFirst" option right now. I don't know how to pass this as an argument when calling this subroutine.

In the first subroutine updateAll() I need to call the second subroutine and want to pass an argument to it. Maybe my approach using subs and application.run is the wrong way to do this?

Sub updateAll()
includeHeader = False
Application.Run "SelectColumn"
' need something like:
' Application.Run "SelectColumn(includeHeader)"
' where subroutine below has something like:
' Sub SelectColumn(includeFirst)
End Sub

Sub SelectColumn()
'Select a Column or Row of Cells in a Used Range Quickly
'http://msdn2.microsoft.com/En-US/library/aa155432(office.10).aspx
includeFirst = False
'includeFirst = True
Dim UpBound As Range
Dim LowBound As Range
If ActiveCell.Row > 1 Then
If IsEmpty(ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0)) Then
Set UpBound = ActiveCell........................

Sub With Argument Using External Values

Sep 24, 2012

There are 100 loans, each one of them need to be tested on 11 different tests, the results are either "pass" or "fail". All the test results are stored in the Boolean array. g_sel_tag(). For instance, if g_sel_tag(2,7) = true that means the 2nd loan has failed on the 7th test.

But I got stock with the following code, I think there should be a loop for the public variable rep_num in order to loop through the 11 test results for each loan. I have searched the entire project but did not find any value was assigned to the variable rep_num. The following code is part of a huge project, I can't test run it to see if the following code is valid at this point.

I am new to VBA therefore wondering if it is valid with no specific value assigned to rep_num. (I think there should be something like "for rep_num = 1 to 11" in order to get it running).

There are several codes in the project with similar structure where they just use rep_num without assigning any specific values.

Code:
Dim rep_num As Interger
Sub test_results_reporter (rep_num As Interger)
Dim i As Interger
Dim g_sel_tag(1 to 100, 1 to 11) as Boolean
For i = 1 to 100
If g_sel_tag(i,rep_num) Then Msgbox "Loan" & i & "has failed on test" & rep_num
Next
End sub

COUNTIFS 3rd And 4th Argument Not Working?

But records with those two status values are still being counted I have a feeling that my attempt to create a "not equal to" condition may be the problem, even though Excel did not error when I put in this formula. I am certain that the worksheet and columns that these conditions are pointing to are correct. Note that the first 2 conditions are working correctly.

Nested IF AND Argument With Date

I need a simple IF AND formula. I just can never manage to get them right. I need a formula (in Column M) to evaluate a date count in Column L (which is a count of business days since another date, fyi). It needs to check to see if the number of days since the date in Column L is greater than 10 AND if the value of Column I is one or zero. If the argument returns true (more than ten days and a zero in Column I) it should return a vaue of "Yes" and "No" if false.

Call Macro With An Argument

May 7, 2007

i want to create a lot of buttons, one in each line, that, when you click on them, open a file. The filename is in a cell in the same row as the button.

Of course every button should open a different file, and that is the problem. As far as i know (not very much) the buttons can only call other subs, and not with an argument.

What should i put into the "onAction" property of each button, so that each button opens a different file? I really dont want to create hundreds of subs just to get this done, there must be another way.

PS: By the way, how can i delete all but one buttons of a sheet with a vba script? Or shall I open another post for that?

SUMIF In A Column: The First Instance Of Each SUMIF

Apr 21, 2009

I have many kitchens using the same recipes. I need to distill information down until I've got a summary of how much is being made. Uploaded is a condensed version of the point in the process I'm having difficulty with. This workbook will pull information from 8 other workbooks and give me excatly what everyone made on any weekday.

And from there, with the kind help of this forum, I figured out how to do a SUMIF based on the recipe number. And it summed up all instances of 'Recipe X' being used. However, it continues to SUMIF itself all the way down the page... which is good, because of how recipes are chosen for each kitchen. However, I only need to report one instance of each recipe.

In the uploaded example (and I apologize for the colorful sheet, but it helped me double check what I was working on.) ... I only need to report the PURPLE results elsewhere... the first instance of each SUMIF.
