VLOOKUP In Large Data Sets Of More Than 16384 Rows
Mar 27, 2006
I have a problem with VLOOKUP looking in sorted lists of more than 16384 items.
Basically it fails at 16385th item
I have developed a VLOOKUP function that looks up in multiple tabs in
multiple files and returns a value. However I have discovered that it fails
at row 16385. As Excel copes to 64,000 rows I regard this as a bug. Has
anyone else encounteed this problem? is it just my machine, is there a
solution / bug fix?
If I use FALSE when the item to be found is beyond 16384 the function
returns the 16384th value this is a warning to other users who may not have
noticed as I did not initially.

I have a spreadsheet that consists of 981 rows and 1152 columns (192 * 6). It is essentially 981 rows by 192 columns rectangles (if we think of it as a range) side by side. What I want to be able to do is cut 981 rows by 192 columns at a time and paste at the bottom of the first rectangle so forth so on.
Essentially currently data sets look like 1 2 3 4 5 6 - I want the cut paste process to move these rectangles to:
1
2
3
4
5
6

I have tried nested ifs and vlookup to compare two sets of data and change the first set of data if it is than the first. But leave it alone if it either is the same or does not exist in the new set of data. It sometimes seems to work but i find it is not consistant. It looks simple but i think i am missing something.
if column A has identifiers and column B has results then it should work if the identifiers in column C are found in column A and it looks to see if column B and D are the same, then change B if different but leave it if either it is the same or not there.

I have two data sets one measured and one modelled and I am testing a conceptual model that proposes that only where the tails of the probability distributions of each data set crosses will you experience an event. I'm enclosing an example file which contains both data sets and some descriptive statistics as well as the associated histograms and a diagram of what I'm ultimately trying to achieve. My question is how I go from the data sets I have with such a large discrepancy between them to plotting their probability distributions?

I have a set of data covering cells A8:C71
Column A lists locations - there maybe upto 6 entries with the same location.
Column C lists a unique serial number.
The list is sorted by column A (A-Z).
For this example say location LONDON has 3 entries, with serial numbers 120, 125, 128.
In cell F1, i want to display the lowest serial number for LONDON
In cell F3, i want to display the 2nd lowest serial number for LONDON
In cell F5, i want to display the 3rd lowest serial number for LONDON
I have tried the following formula, with no success..
=LARGE(VLOOKUP(I9,A8:C71,3),1)

I have an excel file which contains 2 set of data. 1 with 14 rows and other with 20 rows. These are randomly distributed in the sheet and are abut 1000 of data set in a sheet with a combination of 14 and 20 row data set. Data is separated by blank rows, i.e. if it is 14 row data set it would have a blank after 14th row and similarly a blank after 20th row for a 20 row data set. Following the blank another data set starts which might be of 14 or 20 again. I have attached a sample sheet for reference.

I need a little coaching on big data. I have two reports, one from a production system the other from the invoicing system. I need to reconcile the two reports to ensure our invoicing ties out to production. At this time I am focusing on 1 particular item code, but there are potentially hundreds of item codes.
I have 1 Item Code.
I have a around a hundred invoices. (Sample 100)
I have a few hundred different customers. (Sample 100)
I have several hundred lines of billing data. (Sample 650)
I have several thousand lines of production data. (Sample 40,000)
In the billing system, per invoice I might have 1 or more billing lines for this item, usually no more than 2.
In the production system, per invoice I might have 5 to 50 or more production lines for this item per invoice.
Example
Prod System:
30 lines of data has a run amount and a total run amount for each line.
I am looking for tools to reconcile this data. VLookup and Index/Matching is not cutting it. VLOOKUP does not move beyond the first line found. Index/Matching wants to add all the prod together. I can get subtotals easy enough. I have tried Concatenation, but when it takes multiple production data lines to equal 1 billing line, this does not work. I needs some thing that can look at the Qty on a billing invoice and tie it out to various lines of production data to identify which production jobs went on that line of the invoice.
Here is a sample. These are fairly easy to resolve, but others are not so easy due to number of production and billing rows.
Invoice number
Billing item
Est. Quantity
Actual quantity
Billable Qty
Sales order
Position number
Sequence
Agreement
Billing source
Description
Total Billable Qty

I am trying to match data from 2 independent sets, formatted slightly differently so not sure which function would work best for me. From the attached file, I am trying to match the date and time stamp (in cell A1) with that from the other data (in this example in cell E1) and return the data (from cell F1) to cell C1. So basically any date and time stamp before 04/03/09 04:00 will return a value of 44 (this value should appear, therefore in cells C1 - C30)

I don't know if this is possible but thought i'd check. Could I put together a look up that pulls through the 5 best performing categories' so say i have 200 categories, just to pull on to a report page the top 5 and their result, and produce a report weekly so if the top 5 change it updates this?

I have a code in software that exports results to excel. But it stores the numbers associated with indices as text. I need to change all of them to numbers. So I have written the following code, that search through the folder, converts text to numbers and colses the file.
Sub ConvertText2NumberFiles()
Dim v As Variant
Dim rng1 As Range, bk As Workbook
Dim i As Long
ChDrive "C"
ChDir "C: ...analysis"
[Code]....
The problem is it takes time becuase it is going through A LOT OF cells. I only need at most the first 4 columns and the first 2 rows. So I wanted to use the union. I wrote the following:
Set IndexColumns = bk.ActiveSheet.Range(Columns("A") & ":" & Columns("A").SpecialCells(xlLastCell))
Set IndexRows = bk.ActiveSheet.Range(Rows("1") & ":" & Rows("1").SpecialCells(xlLastCell))
Application.Union(Range("IndexColumns"), Range("IndexRows")).Select
Which doesn't work! Morover it is only for one column and one row.
NOTE1 : Like any matrix, the intersection of index columns and index rows is blank!
NOTE2 : The lenght of indices is different from one file to another

I have data from 100 trials. Each trial has a variable number of data points (rows), but each row is labeled in the first column with the trial number. I would like a macro to identify the first row of each trial, calculate the difference of the value of the cell in column G of that row from a constant (718), and then add that difference to that cell and all other cells in that column of that trial.
So based on the attached sample, I would like all values in column G for trial 2 to be +1, for trial 3 to be -5, and for trial 4 to be +2.
In the file, I've cleared all the data from the impertinent columns. Eventually, I will also want to perform a similar process on column H but with a different constant.

I'm trying to compare two very large files to find some that are in one AND also in the other. I'm using =VLOOKUP(C2,Parts2!C:D,1,FALSE) and my results are #N/A for all of them. I have formatted both columns as 'General' because there can be letters and numbers in the serial number, I have also tried formatting as text to no avail. I have confirmed no preceding or trailing spaces or other special characters.
I am however, able to locate values in both documents using Ctrl F. I'm totally puzzled because I've always been able to figure out what's causing my Vlookup issues when I have them but this time I'm not able to.

Below is a series of sets. Column A is the set number. I need a macro that will insert a row between sets and then put a border around each set. In my spreadsheet the sets are from A1:C500. Sometimes the sets are only 1 row, sometimes multiple rows. It looks like I will be doing one of these sheets every week. So far I have been doing it manually, but a macro sure would save some time.

I am working on large sets of data (more than 50,000 rows of data). I have two sets of data. Set 1 and Set 2 (master data) on the same worksheet. Both the sets of data have three columns each. I am using EXCEL 2007. I was able to accomplish step 1 below.. but I am totally lost with step 2 since i have an additional criteria for the "year".
I have attached the excel sheet as well. This is what I am trying to accomplish:
1) I want to find exact matches in set 1 and set 2 and highlight it or do something to show that a match was found. The challenge is the data in set 1 can occur anywhere in set 2.
2) Add to the complication .. my criteria for matching the year is different. If the Set 1 "year" is equal to or greater by 1 yr or greater by 2 yr when compared to Set 2 "year", I want to treat it as a "match".
For example, from the data attached:
Set 1 data in row 4 is: ATLANTIC ABSECON 2004
Set 2 data in row 3 is: ATLANTIC ABSECON 2003
I want to treat these two data as "MATCH" since ATLANTIC matches ATLANTIC, ABSECON matches ABSECON and according to one of my criteria for year, Set 1 "year" is greater by 1 yr than the Set 2 "year".

I have a lookup table which needs to be able to retrieve data from columns as well as rows and not sure if this is possible.
My data is set up with an ID number, financial year and data across the columns e.g
ID F/Y Apples Pears
9999 2004/5 5 4
9999 2005/6 7 8
9881 2003/4 5 3
My lookup table will have the ID number field which will be manually entered to lookup the information on the data sheet. e.g
ID 9999
FY Apples Pears
2004/5 5 4
2005/6 7 8
I can't work out a way to get excel to only give me the number of apples and pears for that year for that ID number. Not all ID numbers will have the same number of financial years so I may need to use VBA.

I have two sets of data for students. One set contains all the students with certain test scores, taking up columns A to N. The other set contains about 80% of those same students with a different set of test scores. Students are sorted by ID numbers. How do I combine the second set into columns O to V so that student ID numbers match and it inputs the rest of the student data into the sheet.
I know there will be some blanks because not all students will be there but I need them to match up, even with the blanks.

I created a macro that extracts two columns of numbers from one workbook and need to match them to another set of numbers in another workbook. For instance i have numbers like...
18314 907
18272 64
11005 907
11005 324
..Now i need to match these numbers up with the others to find the hyperlink associated with them.

I'm attempting to create a mailing list for the company I work for, but the software that has the data record is very limiting. The two tables I received from the program are listed:
Customer
Number of Sales
name 1
#
name 2
#
name 3
I tried to illustrate that the address list has a different customer composition than the sales list; the address list has customers that the sales list doesn't have. This means I can't just sort alphabetically and drag the addresses over. My goal here is to create a datasheet that incorporates both the address and number of sales so that we can send the top 500 customers a mailing. How can I do this?

In the attached workbook, I have identical sets of data in column A separated by an blank cells. I need a macro for user form that searches for an item indicated in the textbox of the form and then delete the whole row in all sets of data.
It is important to keep the blank cells between the sets constant, 4 blank cells between each set, except the first set that starts with 3 blank cells.

I’m trying to get the total number of participants in two different sets, with selection criteria attached to both (I’ve attached an excel file, as the example with those scoring +ve highlighted in yellow). The first set A (b1:b15) I want to select all values above 5, and the second B (c1:c15) set above 10. There other provisor, is that the A and B are further split into two groups (one above and one below 20).
In summary, I need to count all the A>5, B>10 (And both have to be above 20 in column D), but not to double count the ones that have Both A>5 and B>10. I don’t want any duplicates to be counted, so summing the total of A and adding it to B won’t work. In essence it’s an attempt to use the A Union B function that you’d observe when using venn diagrams.
Is there a simple way/formula of doing this?

I manually reconcile two sets of data every month by sorting by PO# and then manually matching up the onse that are the same and then calculate if there is a variance in $ amount.
The 1st set of data is a list of invoice PO#'s and invoice $ amounts and the 2nd set of data is order PO#'s and order $ amounts. What I need to do is reconcile the orders to the invoices by PO#. It is very common to have a PO# on each list but have a different $ amount and I only need to know what the difference is between the order amount and the invoiced amount. I also need to know what is on the invoice list and not on the order list and vise versa....

I am wondering if it is better to do this in excel or access. I am pretty familiar with access...i know this would be easy to do if querying from one table and doing a relationship between identifier, but i'm not sure how to capture data from both tables. But basically this is what I want. I have 2 files, which have identifiers and share amounts...both files will have some like identifiers, some not alike...basically this is what I want to do: ....

I'm trying to compare two sets of data on the same sheet. Each set has 4 columns...A - D and F - I. I would like to take the data from D and I (range 20 to 50) and compare them to see if any differences exist in the two columns. If there is something different I would like to bold and highlight the cells (A-D) in that row, and the same goes for the second set of data (F-I).
I'm trying to do this with macros so I can add it into my existing code.

I have 2 sets of data/array/range. Each set consists of 2 columns with a large number of rows.
I want to compare my 2nd data to a master data. And list if anything is different in 2nd set of data from master set in column A than highlight the difference or copy the value to another place.
Also want to compare the 2nd column if column A was same and consider both column A and column B for that associated row different if column B is different.
The trouble for me comes in because the list is never alphabetical (sort doesnt work cause of funky naming) and never of the same size.
Attached is a photo of an example for maybe an clearer understanding. Also attached an example excel sheet I tried it within excel but cant seem to figure out how to look also for the 2nd column, so im trying to avoid the within excel route and go using vba ...
