VBA Find Exact Match And Nth Occurrence
May 30, 2012
This section of code I am working on requires me to find an exact text (I tried lookat:=xlWhole, but I can't get it to work right). The problem being is when it searches for Q1, Q10 is an acceptable answer ans so on. I need to get the 4th occurrence, but my research into Nth occurrence stuff is confusing.
The search is in a single column.
With Workbooks("FY12-Q3 Data Tables.xlsx").Sheets("PBA Crosstabs").Columns(1)
Set c = .Find(rCell, LookIn:=xlValues, lookat:=xlWhole)
Set c = .Find(rCell, After:=c, lookat:=xlWhole)
Set c = .Find(rCell, After:=c, lookat:=xlWhole)
Set c = .Find(rCell, After:=c, lookat:=xlWhole)
End With

I'm trying to find an exact match to a cell and not xlPart of it, but not sure what the syntax is, (Always where can I find a list of the properties?
Code:
Set Ran2 = Worksheets("TicketsList").Range("B8:IV200").Find(Count, lookat:=xlPart)
If Not Ran2 Is Nothing Then
CallRow = Ran.Row
CallCol = Ran.Column
End If
MsgBox "Row is " & CallRow & "Column " & CallCol

How do i find an exact match in a range (Text exactly the same just like the exact function)
=MATCH(A1,B1:B10,0) This will match the rad and Rad to be the same but what i want is the exact match
I know the exact function does not take an range so how can i amend to take this to account?
Something like =Exact(A1,B1:B10)

I am having a slight VBA issue I need a little help with. I have created a catalog of books in Column A. As each new letter is reached there is a new heading. For example:
Cell A1 : A
Cell A2 : Book beginning with A #1
Cell A2 : Book beginning with A #2
Cell A3 : Book beginning with A #3
Cell A4: B
Cell A5 : Book beginning with B #1
Cell A6 : Book beginning with B #2
Cell A7 : Book beginning with B #3
Cell A8 : C
etc.
What I am looking to do is create a macro for each letter so that if I went to the "B" macro it would make the active cell A4. However the list of books will grow as my library does, so the macros have to find the letter rather than go to a predefined cell.
The code I have so far is (this example is for the letter B):
Sub B()
Columns("A:A").Select
Selection.Find(What:="B", After:=ActiveCell, _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False, _
SearchFormat:=False).Activate
ActiveCell.Select
End Sub
However this code finds the first time the letter B is used in a word, not the cell that only has the letter B in it. Also I need to make sure that if the active cell when the macro is run is below the letter that it needs to find that it will still find it. I'm not sure if my current code would do that or not.

I'm using the below VBA
Dim c, DataRow
With Data
Set c = . Range("A5:A350"). Find(KPI, LookIn:=xlValues)
If Not c Is Nothing Then
DataRow = c.Row
End If
End With
Now,If KPI is for example = "Favourite Hotel" and if i have data that looks like :
Favourite Hotel - London
Favourite Hotel - Cardiff
Favourite Hotel
Favourite Hotel - Birmingham
Then it seems to not look be looking for an exact match (e.g. Favourite Hotel) and rather is finding the first item in the list that contains the KPI string (E.g. Favourite Hotel - London).
How do i make it search for an exact match?

In the four rows of text below I'm trying to match each gas stick to its corresponding gasline.
I think I can count over to "GAS STICK" and get the number. <15> From that point I can count over to "," (comma) and get that number. <26> So the gas stick will be between the first number and one less than the second number. <GAS STICK 1>
I need completing this code to place a the line or stick number in a cell B of the same row. Column A would have the description and column B of the same row would either be "1" or "11" respectively. Column C would be the shortened description (GAS STICK 1).
1] "HUNGA, DUNGA, GAS STICK 1, THINGY"
2] "DOHICKY, GAS STICK 11, THINGUS"
3] "SCAPPEN, DAPPER, GASLINE 1"
4] "SUCH, AND, SUCH, GASLINE 11"

I am new to VBA and am having difficulties in getting a find function to successfully locate search criteria within cell. When the search criteria matches exactly that of the cell contents then the code works; however should the search criteria only form part of the total cell contents (such as a seach for "the" in a cell containing "the cat sat on the mat") the code doesn't recognise it.
Essentially, I need the code to search a range for the required string and if found within a cell activate that cell and populate a combobox with the full cell contents of the activecell.offset(0,-2).
The relevant section of code attached below:
Dim role_count as range
Dim role as string
If Application.WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range("Role_Count"), Role) 0 Then
Range("role_count").Select
Selection.Find(What:=Role, After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False _
, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
Me.Controls(ComboBoxName) = ActiveCell.Offset(0, -2).Value

I am very new withe macro I recieve every day a CSV file from our supplier withe a list of the products that got updated withe new price, stock count, product ID etc.
I have my own worksheet with the product ID that we use, and I want to finde the exact match to my product ID in that CSV file and delete all other that don't match.
But i need them get deletede by rows thos product ID that dosen't match to my workbook.
I tried with this, so it could set an X in front of my match then i could filter and copy it to my workbook but it dosen't work:
Because the same product ID is sometime in 100 rows and the X come only in front of one of them.
=IF(ISNA(MATCH(Q2:Q1000;G$2:G$1000;0));"";"X")
so with some macro. I need to have every row deleted that don't match to my list of product ID.

I have tried using the 'arbitrary lookup' function as listed here but can't seem to get it to work. [URL] .....
I have a list of all football fixtures and results in the premier league this season and I have a separate worksheet with a drop down menu to load each team.
What I am struggling to do is to get a function that will obtain the data corresponding to each of the home fixtures and the away fixtures of the team selected in the drop down menu.
I have managed to get the first result but do not know how to get the 2nd occurrence, the 3rd etc.
My formula for the first is
=INDEX(Fixtures!$A$3:$R$380,MATCH($E$1,Fixtures!$C$3:$C$380, FALSE),5).
I've attached the spreadsheet. (Unfortunately the format of the excel sheet can't be changed)

I have one condition which needs to be matched. This code I wrote can find the first instance and then offset data to another worksheet accordingly.
My question is whether than can be done for every other instance that appears on my sourcesheet 'Invoicing'. I have considered putting a loop in, but this will only find the first instance over and over again which is pointless.

In one sheet I have customer_code in one sheet (Customer_code) and this is multiple like
C00002604,C00002604,C00002604 and in another sheet (Customer_code_details)
I have the same code but here the count us much more than earlier sheet (Customer_code). if Customer code exists the same code 3 times the same code exists also in sheet (Customer_code_details) for 5 times.
In customer_code sheet I have 8724 data but Customer_code_details sheet I have 8840 data.
I am normally sorted the two columns and checking t manually.
Is there any way to do vlookup with count?

I looked for this - but no luck and the tips did not answer it either
(in fact I have used an example but it does not work - in my case ).
I am using H lookup but need to find the exact match.
I know that you can use false on a Vlookup to get an exact match but it does not appear to be working with Hlookup.
I attach an example and hope someone can enlighten me...

I am trying to find the 2nd occurrence in a range of text along 1 column and return the cell one to the left of that 2nd occurrence. I will also need to find the 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc occurences, down the column.
So far, I have a working formula to find the first occurrence and it looks like this:
=INDEX(INDIRECT(A2),MATCH("*SS*",INDEX(INDIRECT(A2),0,2),0),1)
How would I find the 2nd occurrence?
what if the formula looked like this?
how would I find it's 2nd occurrence?
{=INDEX(INDIRECT(A2),MATCH(TRUE,ISNUMBER(MATCH(INDEX(INDIRECT(A2),0,2),{"CF","LF","RF","OF"},0)),0),1)}

When an exact match to the lookup value is not found, the function goes to the highest value that is less than the lookup value.
What do I do if I want to return the closest value, but not less than the lookup value?
For exampe, in my screenshot, if my lookup value is 6 horsepower, I want to return the efficiency for the next highest value (if no exact match) for 7.5 HP. Function would return 89.5

I have text values in 2 different columns A and B. I can use the conditional formula to find and highlight duplicates but only if they are an exact match. How do I modify if they are not exact match but for example start with the same 3-4 text values?

I'm trying to use the MATCH function. I want to locate an exact name. I used the formula:
=MATCH(A6,A3:A10,0). This is the name cell I want to retrieve, the column in which the information is found, and 0 for the exact match. The return answer I get is 4.

I'm looking for help in tweaking existing code contributed by acw on ozgrid. The code he supplied compares 2 worksheets, it goes through the first sheet than highlights cells as it finds matches on sheet 2. However I also need it to find exact matches. For example if the numer it is searching for is 15 it must only find 15 not 01500, 015, 150 etc. Here is the post which contains the code and a sample workbook

I have a VLOOKUP formula which accesses work time per job number. I want the formula to return the exact amount of time per job - however, as the numbers hit zero, the formula returns invalid results that seem to be based on the nearest time to the zero.

This is the script I have now:
[Code] ......
It works, unless there is a column before the "Categories" column that has the word "Categories" somewhere in its text. So basically if there is a column that has "Unit Categories" it finds that column when I really want it to find a column that has exactly "Categories" as the text and nothing else (but I don't want it to be case sensitive).
How do I force an exact match using this script?

In Sheet 1 there's a Column B with data I'd like to pull using a VLOOK-UP formula. However, I need it too look-up not only the exact number match in Sheet 2, but also the cell directly above it and the cell directly below it. In the sample above if I placed the VLOOK-UP formula in Sheet 2 (at for instance the numbers 23455, 23456, 23457), I'd need it to pull data from Sheet 1, Column B (for the 23456).

I need to search for an exact match within a cell & i am unsure of how to go abt it. Eg ) Cell A1 contains "Emea West,Emea East,Emea". I want to search for the term "Emea" in the contents of the Cell A1. I cant use Find() as using "=FIND("Emea",A6)" returns 1 ... But i want an exact match i.e "Emea" only which in this case should be 21. The Exact() works well if Cell A1 had a single value ...I guess I would need to use some array function here which will parse through contents of the cell , but am not sure on how to go about
