VBA Macro To Name Sheets Based On Lookup Results
Dec 27, 2009
I want to name three sheets (sheets will have a different name every month so I refer to them below as Sheet(1), Sheet(2), and Sheet(3) (Their sheet index)) using a vlookup in VBA. I want the code to promt the user for input and based on the entry, I want to use a vlookup to name the sheets. There are three "lookup tables" on a sheet named "Ref" that I have defined as Table1 (used for naming Sheet(1)), Table2 (used for naming Sheet(2)), and Table3 (used for naming Sheet(3)) that I want to reference in the code. I also want a code to check the first MyLookUp1 which I have attemped below, but I do not know if I am doing this correctly. Below is my bad VBA attempt so you get an idea of what I am trying to do. Also, attached is an exaple file.
Sub namesheets()
Dim MyEntry As Variant
Dim MyLookUp1 As Variant
Dim MyLookup2 As Variant
Dim MyLookup3 As Variant
Dim MySTRING As String
MyEntry = Application.InputBox( _
Prompt:="Please enter an Item:", _
Title:="Lookup sheet name", _
Type:=2)
MySTRING = MyEntry
MyLookUp1 = Application.VLookup(MySTRING, Table1, 2, False)
If IsError(MyLookUp1) Then Exit Sub
Sheets(1).Select
ActiveSheet.Name = MyLookUp1....................

I have 2 sheets.
Sheet one column A has random dates from 1 jan 2013 to present in order base on fuel purchase dates for our company.
sheet one column F has the purchase price i.e 3.98 gallon
Sheet one column A can have a date entry of lets say 2/4/13 with no data in F because no fuel was purchased just the meter was being read.
Then Sheet one column A can have 2/5/13 where column F has 3.78 where fuel was purchased. (these are 500 gallons tanks that are being refilled as needed)
Sheet 2 row B has just the month formatted as Jan 13, Feb 13, Mar 13, .... you can use B1, B2, B3...ECT for the remaining months
What I am looking for is on sheet 2 in cell C1 a way to look at B1 for the month (i.e Jan 13) look at a range of cells on sheet 1 column A for any dates that fall in the month of Jan, then look for data in corresponding F range and if no data is found then use the last months data (Dec 12)
I can make sure I place a dollor figure in the first row of Jan on the sheet, so by default we can use that if no data exist for Feb.

Ceating a macro to perform a look up and return based on column headers.
General Synopsis: Using a call and parameters to choose a lookup column and return column, and their respective sheets. Then the sub routine finding their respective column headers and perform a lookup/return. Essentially the current problem is the macro runs to slowly.

I have a sheet with Product IDs and amounts. A Product ID may occur more than once. I want to sum all amounts for all occurrences of each Product ID.
(see attached file)
I have written the following code, but as you can see, it is returning an error, so I've done something wrong. I'm also getting a Compile error: "For Each control variable must be Variant or Object"
Function GetTotal(PO_ProdID As Range, LURng As Range)
'
' Function to Lookup Concatenated PO # & ProdID
' & Return the Total of all dollar amount listed
'
Dim ce As String, tot As Long
tot = 0
For Each ce In LURng
tot = tot + ce.Offset(0, 1).Value + ce.Offset(0, 2).Value
Next ce
End Function

I have a procedure that processes data in a spreadsheet. It analyzes data in 365 sheets ( named "1" through "365") and creates a table/report with the results. When I run this on a scaled down version of my workbook (5 instead of 365 worksheets), the result is almost instantaneous. When this is on my normal workbook, the initial processing is about 1 second per day on Day 1, and the last day it speeds up to almost be instantaneous. It is not a linear relationship between the processing time (still working to get more exact timing information). Also, even if I limit my processing to 5 or 10 sheets, Days 1-10 are always slow and days 350-365 are always fast. The code being run is in the structure as shown below:
numSheets = 365
For counter = 1 To numSheets
x = CalculateSomething(counter)
Next
Private Function calculateSomething(counter As Integer) As Integer
Dim strCounter As String
strCounter = counter
With worksheets(strCounter)
For i = 0 To someNumber
For j = 0 To someDifferentNumber
'Data analyzed on worksheet
Next
Next
End With
End Function
The functions obviously aren't copied and pasted/functional, but the relevant efficiency stuff should be there.

I have a workbook that I use to calculate sales by agents. In the workbook I have the following sheets:
Monthly_Report - Where the results are return to the from end user
team_ref_sheet - Where team / manager details are added / updated
data_sheet - Where my raw data is added
On my team_ref_sheet I have created 4 columns that have been renamed using name manager as follows:
team_manager
agent_names
dealer_code
employee_number
On my "Monthly_Report" sheet I have created a table where I want m data to be displayed to the front end user. The table starts in column C8.
In column D10 through to all the other rows I would like my sheet to reference to my "team_ref_sheet" and return all agent names in the range, up until it reaches a blank row.

After a lot of searching and trying I still didn't get to something that works.
My situation:
sheet1
column A column B
true "abc"
true "bcd"
false "cde"
true "def"
false "efg"
false "fgh"
on sheet2, in cell A1, I would like to get all results from column B that correspond 'TRUE' in that row.
So, in cell A1 on sheet2, i would like to see "abc", "bcd", "def".
VLOOKUP returns only one result, of course. How do I solve this?
I'm not good at VB, so preferably only with formulas!

I have a series of daily data in columns sorted by date (see attached .xls).
I am trying to create a table that extracts the value on the last day of a given month, and of the first day of that month, for each of the months in the data series.
I have been trying to get lookups and match functions to work but to no avail.

I'm trying to use this function which was posted as an answer (looking up a single value and returning multiple results, concatenating those results in one cell):
Function getfiles(DRng As Range, LURng As Range)
For Each ce In LURng
If ce.Value = DRng Then
holder = holder & ce.Offset(0, 1).Value & ", "
End If
Next ce
getfiles = Left(holder, Len(holder) - 2)
End Function
What is "ce" here? Auto Merged Post;additional info:

i have this file that has about 12000 rows of numbers (a individual number can appear more than one). i'm trying to use a lookup to find if that number appears and if it does then bring back the amount next to the number.. however because the vlookup sees that the number more than one in the list it will bring back #N/A every time. Is there a way to get around this??

I have been using this formula to do lookup and return values
"=INDEX(ResultsColumn,SMALL(INDEX((CriteriaColumn=Criteria)*(ROW(CriteriaColumn)-ROW(FirstCellOfCriteriaColumn)+1),),COUNTIF(CriteriaColumn,"<>"&Criteria)+ROWS(A$1:A1)))"
I'm using this formula in a roster scene to pick up people that call in sick and display their restored job in a different cell. The problem that I am having say for example employee one calls in sick at 2 pm and i assign that job in a corresponding cell to another, then employee 2 calls in sick for the 1pm shift (the call was made after i have already restored employee one a replacement), the formula automatically places the 1 pm in the cell above the 2pm.
Is there a way to stop it from changing the value once a value is entered in a corresponding cell?

I have been searching all day about this topic and while there are many "solutions" none of them fits my criteria and I can't figure out how to tailor it.
I am using a very basic data sheet to populate a purchase order. I want to be able to search a style and have all the data (color, units and price) automatically fill in upon entering the style number, I have been using vlookup but this only works if there is one color per style.
I have found different lookup functions that give the value +1 when the data is sorted but it returns the value even if it doens't fit the search criteria, I only want to return the second value if it correlates to the initial lookup

I am trying to find a function that will scan down a column to find a particular criteria. I would like all the cells that meet this criteria to have their entire row pulled through to a new sheet.
For Example, In the attached spreadsheet, I would like everyone in sheet 1 to have their details pulled through to sheet 2 if they are in class 1, sheet 3 if they are in class 2, and sheet 4 if they are in class 3.

I have a cell that I must remove the first 2 characters "RO" for each value in a column on a sheet called RAW DATA and put into a cell on a sheet called ROSS DATA. Some of the values in that cell have 3 digits after the RO and some have 5 digits. To do that I used
=REPLACE('RAW DATA'!A3,1,2,"")
Then I need to use this new resultant string as the lookup value in a VLOOKUP. The VLOOKUP will be looking at a named range called DAP on a sheet called DAP, in column 5 for an exact match and I need it to return that value to the cell.
I have tried using the indirect to no avail in different ways, and not sure that I fully understand the usage.

I have some data arranged in columns/rows as follows:
Location Name
--------- ------
United States Sarah Buchannan
United States Walter Smith
France Phil Barney
Italy Anna Wilson
Germany Philip Watson
France Neil Anderson
I want to have some function in my spreadsheet that will neatly present the names of the people at a given location in a separate part of the worksheet
e.g. a display of all people in France would have something like:
France
-------
Phil Barney
Neil Anderson
Ideally I would like to populate cells rows in a different column with the multiple results of the lookup ("persons at a given location") and that change in location for any individual would result in the list of persons at a given location being automatically updated.
Did alot of digging around and managed to construct a UDF that would display the results of the lookup in a single cell - it is however not very readable. But, I found out that a cell based UDF is not allowed to populate other cells other that the one where the function is entered!

1st sheet is giving me partial results with a vlookup - only gives me the first match to my ref number.
2nd sheet is the source data and contains refs and one or more matches.
NB: This is just a sample of the data, however in my original excel file with 25000 records there can be one or even up to 10 matches.
What I'd like to achieve;
Sheet One; Column B should give all matches for the ref number found in Column A.
It should merge all these matches to fit one cell so that all matches are sorted one under each other with line breaks.
As there is 25000 records to treat I would rather not have to do anything manually!
Am I asking too much?
I've read on the forum that it's best not to merge but I don't know how to get around the fact that I need all the matches per ref no in one cell to reimport into my database.

I am using vlookup to return data from a range that could have the same name in column A.
There are 8 columns
Column 1 is Name
Column 2 is Sun
Column 3 is Mon
and so on.
The problem I have is that a name can appear in two places in column1 with relevant information in different columns:
Fred appears twice, on Wed he is on a course the rest of the week he is on leave. I need a C to be returned for Wed & A/l for the rest of the week.

I need to start a list in cell a8 on sheet1. I need it to find and list multiple results vertically. It will lookup what is in cell a1 on sheet1. The table of info is on sheet2 from a1 to b44. Column a on sheet2 has the values of what is in column a on sheet1 and column b is what I need returned to the cell with the formula.

An offset sumproduct series of functions provides me the total score percentage for the top level categories. There are 5-6 in total and can easily be charted in a radar.
The second step is to maintain the 'dynamic aspect' (being able to delete rows) and lookup the high-level category, and the subsection and return the score for the individual question. This way I can create a chart for each of the 5 top level categories and show the survey score for each answer in the category. Note each question has a maximum score of 5 and are scored 1-5.
I have a few errors looking up values and percentages coming back as 500% with the addition of new columns (in red in attached). The first sheet is error free, the second sheet is the 'build'.
Note: Charts will be housed on a separate sheet.

I am trying to create a workbook where I can log what work I have done in one spreadsheet and allocate an invoice number to it. In a separate spreadsheet within the same workbook I have created an invoice template. When I enter in the invoice number into the invoice template it's not collecting the correct information.
For example, if I want the details for invoice 10 to show in the invoice template, details for invoice 19 appear.
I have used this formula:
=IFERROR(INDEX(ServiceRecord[[Invoice number]:[Date invoice issued]],
SMALL(IF(ServiceRecord[[Invoice number]:[Date invoice issued]]
='Invoice TEMPLATE'!$F$8,ROW(ServiceRecord[Invoice number])),ROW(1:1)),2),"")
I am wanting to add new information as time goes on and also to be able to put in any invoice number into the invoice template to recall information as needed.

I am looking for a formula that would lookup multiple values/result, corresponding to one given value. I have attached a spreadsheet.
Column A and Column B consists of data set.
Column J has the "LOOKUP VALUE"
Column K is where we want the lookup results. We would require the result to be in ascending order which would determine the distribution.

I have a table of data with years in row 1, week # in column C. The data array is from C2:O34.
I want to find the max value in each year column, then look up that result and return which week that value occured.
Is there a vlookup that allows you to specify which column of the array has the lookup value and which has the lookup result?

If I type in an age in A1, in A2 I want an age group to appear
the groups are
20-24
25-29
30-34
35-39
40-44
45-49
50-54
55-59
60-65
so far, if I type in an age then it normally enters the group ABOVE what I want
i.e. if I enter “24” then it put the group “25-29”. if I enter “42” it puts “45-49” and so on.
=LOOKUP($A1,{0,16,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55,60},{"<16","20-24","25-29","30-34","35-39","40-44","45-49","50-54","55-59","60+"})
