I have a formula that has been working and it looks like this
=VLOOKUP(A13;'IFS export'!$A$1:$F$19000;4;FALSE)
Now I want to use the same formula in an other workbook and it gives an error
=VLOOKUP(A2;DRAWING!$A$2:$C$9168;3;FALSE)
When I type this formula I get the window that says
"This formula contains an error.

And if I go and try to change the first formula that has been work it gives me the same error.
I have 2 columns of data: Column A is basically postcodes, but just the 1st part and Column B is a #2. If somewhere else on the sheet I type in the postcode IE. SW19 it will show besides it in my lookup the number 2. However if I type in a postcode that is not listed in Column A, I'd like to to return the value 1. I cannot figure this out. My code is:
Basically, if B36 is yes, use If Statement B, otherwise IF Statement A. If I write Yes, I get a "Value" error, if I change the yes to 1, I get a FALSE error.
If I create a simple conditional statement in a cell:
=IF(A8="NX-QSNT",B8, "")
I get the expected B8 cell contents when "NX-QSNT" exists in A8, or blank when it doesn't.
If instead of qualifying this full string, I try to Search for the "-QS" string in that cell as the criteria:
=IF(SEARCH("-QS",A8),B8, "")
I get the expected B8 cell contents when "NX-QSNT" exists in A8, but I get "#VALUE!" if it does not find this "-QS" string.
I'm guessing it may be because SEARCH isn't actually returning a TRUE/FALSE response, but rather, a numeric one based on the position of "-QS". I tried using a numeric approach also, but this didn't help:
The first half of the vlookup searches for data and returns a dollar amount if true The second half of the vlookup searches for another data set and returns a dollar amount if true...
Both amounts could be the same, so I cant use a formula based on numeric value
the conditional format must determine which vlookup is returning the result
in other words I'd like to conditionally format (grey fill) if the first vlookup returns data and conditionally format (blue fill) if the second vlookup returns data
Probably have to "use a formula to determine which cells to format"
I'm trying to create a rec report, ideally on one page, for multiple criteria. The situation is we get a report on our trade positions (investment stuff) from an outside service we use. We also have a report internally from what we've booked. We're looking to tie out are basic things like price, original par, revised par, trade date, counter-party banks, etc. I've consolidated data from both sources on one page (DATA) where all data points are lined up (say EXTERNAL is from rows 1-500, and INTERNAL is 510-1010). Now I need to create a front page showing the result of each tie-out. The lookup value will be a combination of the fund name + trade ticket number which would almost guarantee a unique ID (fund name XYZ, ticket number 12345 = XYZ12345)
Current tabs on spreadsheet: DATA, EXTERNAL, INTERNAL. I need to add a REC page
Question: What formula can I use to check on each and return TRUE/FALSE? The goal is to have about 8 columns on the REC, each for one of the tie-outs (let's use price as an example.). I know the basic VLOOKUP to return one value, but it appears in this case I will need VLOOKUP to check two matching values based on unique ID XZY12345, compare the price, and return TRUE if they match, FALSE if they don't
Here's something I saw from one of our spreadsheets that I think does the same to confirm counter-party, though I have no idea how to read this lengthy formula.
I have a table arranged by columns into SETS of results. I am looking for a way to mark all the columns of a set as false if any one column of the set is false.
I am receiving a run-time error with following code. The error message is "unable to get the VLookup property of the WorksheetFunction class". I only receive the message when the lookup value is not found in the table.
I thought adding the "False" command at the end would return an "N/A" but it didn't. Is there anything I can add to avoid this error?
I want to count the number of cells in a row containing a value greater than a fixed number but less than a number entered in another cell.
For example, in the cells A1..K1 I want to know the number of cells which have an entry greater than 7 but less than the value I have entered in cell M3. I have used the COUNTIF in other circumstances but I cannot find out how to use it with this "greater than and less than" condition?
I am trying to Sum lines of info with "True or False" and "Yes and No". I would like to assign 1 to True and Yes and 0 to False and No when I total the rows. Never tried this in Excel, on Lotus and the formula does not work. I can find and replace, but I would like to be able to use a formula.
I'm trying to make an expression to calculate some fields in Excel 2007. Trying to check fields up to a given number and give them a high multiplier, and add the rest of the numbers with a lower multiplier.
I have multiple fields with numbers in hundreds. I want to multiply the sum of this fields (up to 500) with 4. But the expression must also start the count from the first field, and when im hitting 500 as a sum I want the rest to be added with 2 as multiplier (the reason for the prioritizing of the fields is that they also have their own values/multipliers, but I'll skip that to avoid to much confusion here).
It's probably a lousy description. I'll give an example:
Field 1__Field 2__Field 3____Sum 100____300_____500______2800
How in earths name did I get that Sum you might ask. ((100 + 300 + 100) * 4) + (400 * 2) = 2800
400 is the number left from the third field wich I only want to multiply with 2 instead of 4.
Another example:
Field 1__Field 2__Field 3____Sum 300____600_____500______2000
((300 + 200 + 0) * 4) + (900 * 2) = 3800
900 is taken from the rest value of field 2 and 3.
If there any way of doing this "sum check and multiply, and then add the rest with a different multiplier"?
With Excel you can do If(array, array2, false) to poplulate another array. Is there a way to replication this without looping. For instance can the IIf hold an array as its expression or is there any other way of replicating this If statement without looping?
a) The first letter cannot be number b) the password should have a combo of numbers letters and one special character c) The password should begin with a big case letter
Here's what I need to do. I have a list of row numbers in AA2:AA6, so for i =1 to 5 I want to insert a page break before cell (column AA and Row(#in cell AA2-5))
I'm trying to figure out the whole Regular Expression thing...so I figured Hotpepper's EXDATA UDF would be a good place to try and rewrite with Regular Expression...I got it to work...but not sure why as it seems opposite of what I would have expected...
eg pattern [^/d] i thought would give me everything except numerics...but it appears to be giving me numerics....
here's the code and sheet...can someone help explain what's going on? .......
I am currently using a SUMIF statement as follows: =SUMIF(W1:W1500, "Charnwood" & "*", S1:S1500). The problem i am having is the fact that SUMIF doesn't work with a reference to a closed worksheet. I tried using SUMPRODUCT but it did not work. The reason it didn't work is because I need to find in column W anything with Charnwood and anything else past it, auch as Charnwood Estates. This is what I tried: =SUMPRODUCT((W1:W1500="Charnwood")*(W1:W1500="*")*(E1:E1500="S"),S1:S1500) which of course is a syntax error.
I have been reading the different post here on the forum. I have found a snippet of code that will open a pop-up message from a value of a cell. I would llike to do this on one of my reports. Here is the scenario.
Range (R5:S5) 0.15 them MsgBox "Note Must Be Entered For +/- 15% change" But There are 14 different cells that I want this to work for. The value differs from day to day, and this should pop-up happen without a user having any actions other then the calculated value. But ones the note is entered in the "Notes: cell the message will not return. Hope I explained it correctly.
The value of the cells in question are calculated in each cell with a formula example "=IF(ISERROR(Z20/H5),0,IF(ISERROR(Z20/H23),0,(Z20/H23)))"
