VLOOKUP To Find Multiple Occurrences?
Dec 18, 2013
I'm trying to use a VLOOKUP formula in a blank cell on a separate sheet from my data.
Essentially I'm trying to search the sheet for the word "VIOLATION" and then report back what it says in field 1, which in this case is a date.
=VLOOKUP("VIOLATION",'Master sheet'!1:1048576,1,FALSE)
Right now I just get #N/A.
Eventually I would like to be able to find all occurences of the word VIOLATION and then have the dates all show up in one cell together seperated by commas if that's possible.

I have some data which I update every now and again. Then I extract and clean up and currently have it output to 4 columns.
The four columns currently looks like this:
A | B | C | D
1 name name2 stats stats2
2 ....
3 ....
Each column is then populated with a decent amount of names and stats, and the same name occurs multiple times. I'm looking up a specific name in the A column, and can extract the stats in C fine using INDEX/MATCH, but it only returns the data from the first instance the name occurs. I've googled it a bit and believe I could possibly wrap my head around returning multiple instances.
However, there are a couple of other criteria for my extraction of the stats which makes me believe I'm in way over my head. The data is in chronological order, with the newest on the bottom. I'm wanting to extract the stats in inversed order so starting from bottom going upwards, if that makes sense. Further, preferably I'd want to limit the amount of extraction to X amounts. And lastly to make it really complicated, for the newest entries stats are not yet available so only the names (column A and B) are populated, I need it to skip those entries, since, obviously, there are no stats there to extract, and I wouldnt want to end up with a lot of blank cells in my summary.

I have run into serious trouble with a file I am working on. I have 12,000 companies (roughly), and each of them appears in an Excel file multiple times (some 1 time, other 18 times) with a few parameters. The big file (about 90,000 entries) is sorted so it looks like below:
I will illustrate for 2 companies:
Company A 0 200
Company A 0 0
Company B 300 400
Company B 0 50
I need for every company to do a countif for each column on condition
that the value is larger than 0.
In this case I would end up with:
Company A 0 200
Company A 0 0
Countif result 0 1
Company B 300 400
Company B 0 50
Countif result 1 2
However, I need to extend this to the whole 90,000 entries and 12,000 companies and this cannot be done manually. I thought about vlookup but that returns the first entry only, and I have multiple.

I have a table (table1) with material numbers which have a price . This value is time dependent i.e., a material 999 could have a price of $10 for 1/1/2008-1/15/2008 and $20 for 1/16/1008 - 1/31/2008.
A B C D
999 1/1/2008 1/15/2008 $10
999 1/15/2008 1/31/2008 $20
998 2/1/2008 - 2/25/2008 $15
I have another table (table2) in another sheet in the same workbook have a material and date.
A B C
999 1/10/2008
999 1/20/2008
998 2/15/2008
My requirement to take the material value and date in table2 and match it with table1 and get the value of column D in table 1 to column C of table2.
I have tried using vlookup but it only works for the first match and doesn't check for other values
below is the function that i tried
=if(and(vlookup(A2,Sheet2!A1:D4,2,false)<=Sheet1!B2,vlookup(Sheet1!A2,Sheet2!A2:D4,3,false)>=Sheet1! C2)),vlookup(Sheet1!A2,Sheet2!A2:D4,4,false),"error")

I want to find sum of all 4 returned values (Sales!BL5, Sales!BM5, Grants!X5, Deferred Pymts!X5
Column References:
Cell AD2 (AMOUNT TOTAL PYMTS)
Cell AC2 (TOTAL NO. OF ORDERS)
Cell Range B5:B4833 on multiple pages (CUSTOMER NAME)
Cell Range AJ5:AJ4833 on multiple pages (CUSTOMER NAME)
Formula:
In Cell AD2 of CustomerData! Sheet:
If AC2 is not blank, then
look for match between A2 and Sales!B5:B4833, return the value in Sales!BL5, and
look for match between A2 and Sales!AJ5:AJ4833, return the value in Sales!BM5, and
look for match between A2 and Grants!B5:B4833, return the value Grants!X5, and
look for match between A2 and Deferred Pymts!B5:B4833, return the value Deferred Pymts!X5
Hope this does not confuse, but if John Doe is listed in AC2 I want to find the sum of his total payments if his name is listed as a customer in Sheets Sales, Grants, and Deferred Pymts. The Sales! sheet is divided into AM and PM pricing which explains why Sales! has Column B and Column AJ for Customer Names.

I'm using a macro for searching through ~200k rows of a column, finding all the occurrences of a string and copying them to another column.
This is the code (copied from somewhere some time ago, modified as needed) :
[Code] .....
It works great but it takes a little less than 20 seconds to complete the task.
And, since I have to search for multiple strings and the results need to be copied to different rows, I use multiple subs like this in a bigger macro.
The problem is that it got to the point where it takes 3 minutes to execute that bigger macro and I'm trying to find a way to speed things up.

i've got two textboxes and a command button on a userform.
Textbox1's value is "A" Textbox2's value is "B".
On commandbutton_click, i'd like to search down column P for textbox1's value.
then offset -5 to column J and insert textbox2's value.
Then Next search for the next textbox1's value and replace the offset again until all values have been replaced.
I've done the searches and not sure exactly how to go about it, it seems so easy but i'm getting tired of looking at this project.

In column A I have a set of Ids that are not unique. In column B I have a set of latlong values for those Ids in column A. In column D I have the unique list of Ids from column A(Removed duplicates from column A & pasted them in column D). In column E, I need the latlong value which has highest frequency for each Id. I tried countif,Frequency and tried mixing them up with various other formulas but it is out of my reach.

I would like to design a macro that can find a value within a cell in a colunm and copy a value in the row then count occurances of that value next time a match in the colunm is found on a different row, but also do this only if the date range in the row is within a specified range. So a multi-critieria search and copy operation.
To explain a little better here is a simplified example of my spread sheet that is in input for the macro.
A
B
C
D
E
1
PART NO.
date in
date out
comp1
comp2[code]......
Column A lists the coponents found on the same row as the seach critria, in this example "12-3".
Column B lists the number of occurances of the components. This search is limited to a date range input by the user.
So what I can see is the components replaced and the amount of times replaced on a specific item over a fixed time.
*It is difficult to describe this problem without showing the macro output, but this is just an example for the purpose of explanation.
I know a bit of VBA programming and initially I started with an input box that asks for the part number and limit dates.

Iam doing a market report for real estate. I have attached a file for reference. I am trying to track the Active Listings within a given time period and within a specific zip code. Unfortunately my local MLS does not track historical data on Active Listings, and therefore I have to use the Listing Date and the date it no longer went active to determine which listings were active in a given time period. Some of the listings are still active and therefore do not have a "No Longer Active" date. These listings will need to be counted as well.

what I'm looking at doing is counting the number of reccuring unauthorised absences in a list. We have the persons name in column B, the absence type in column C and the date in column E. Basically I need to send out an AWOL notice when 5 days of unauthorised absence for the person in column B has occurred, so I need some sort of indication that this has happened in order for me to stick some conditional formatting in there to flag it.

In Sheet1 are unique VM entries (Column A) which have a Group (Column B), Time (Column C) and a Reference (Column D) which can be same for other VM entries. In Sheet2 are the unique Reference Entries (Column A) which need Group (Column B) and Time (Column C) entries populated from Sheet 1. Multiple occureneces need to go in one cell, I realise this is not the best idea, but for this purpose they need to be and seperated by a comma or semi-colon.
In B2 I've used this formula:
=INDEX(Sheet1!A1:D11,MATCH(A2,Sheet1!D1:D11,0),2)
Which partly works, but only returns the first occurrence of H1 on Sheet1. I need all occurrences (i.e G1;G4;G8) returning for B2.
I can only think that some VBA script may be needed but I'm not really an expert in this area. In the full spreadsheet there are hundreds of rows and multiple entries, where Group and Time need to be populated on the second sheet

I have a sheet with data which is all sorted by columns.
What I want to be able to count the occurrence of an instance when 2 cells in the same row (but in different columns) match my given criteria.
Ive been using 'countif' to count the instances in a single column and I am now aware that this is about all it can be used for.
An example of my data is:
A B
1 a
1 a
1 c
2 d
2 c
3 b
3 b
3 c
3 d
What I want to be able to count for example is how many times '3' & 'b' occur on the same row (in this case the answer would be 2).
Im not very good with pivot tables and have tried but have not managed to find an answer. I really hope that someone can help as Ive been working on this probelm for days and quite frankly its doing my head in :-)

I came across a code on your website that looks across numerous sheets and stops at the first match. I have a similar need but only i do not want the code to stop when it has found the first match. I want the code to lookup from 1 column in 1 sheet to another workbook with 20 odd sheets, then want it to return a findings report or show all matches.

I have a number of records that have in one cell a string of the form 1,2,3 etc (up to 10) representing conditions that have been met. There are a number of options available for producing reports on all of the other attributes in a record but now we wish to add this element as well.
The reports I can produce using VBA and the INSTR function, however on the summary page where, a total of all records matching available criteria is shown, depending upon drop down items being selected, I need to add this element to the equation as well. The existing conditions are counted using SUMPRODUCT and a combination of IF statements and work fine.
As there is an option to create a report for both AND and OR, e.g. if condition 1 and 2 and 3 apply include in the report, or if condition 1 or 2 or 3 apply include in the report
The conditions are selected using a check box and a drop down list to select the AND/OR condition.
I have been trying various combinations of database functions, countif, find and cannot get them to evaluate. I suspect that it may be beyond my reach to use a formula and I will need to use VBA with a Worksheet_Change macro to achieve what I want, or alternatively redesign the layout to store the conditions differently, however if anyone has any ideas for a formula I would much appreciate hearing from you.
A sample worksheet illustrates how the data is currently shown. The string in the record column is created using VBA and then inserted into the actual record.

I have a row that contains a different time (hh:mm) in each column where each column represents a different date which is display in row 3. If there is no time the cell is populated with "N/A"
I want to count how many cells for a specified Month/year are not equal to "N/A". I have been able get each selction criteria to work but when I try merging numeric and non-numeric queries I lose it.
The following formula was able to give me the count of cells "N/A"
=COUNTIF('Master Data'!$UA59:$ALZ59, ">0")
and this gave me a count by Month/Year
=SUMPRODUCT(--(YEAR('Master Data'!$UA3:$ALZ3)=2012),--(MONTH('Master Data'!$UA3:$ALZ3)=1))
When I tried creating one COUNTIF I was unable to get it without an error as I needed the YEAR/MONTH functions.

I am trying to count the number of unique entries in a sheet, that also satisfy 2 other conditions.
I've attached an example sheet : Example email report.xlsx
The result I need is: The number of unique values in column E, that also have NULL in column G and NULL in column I.
So, in the example, the result would be 7.
I know I can do this by conditional formatting and filtering, but would prefer a formula, and perhaps also a macro that I could apply as the number of rows in each sheet is up to 20000, and each month's sheet will be a different size.

I am trying to identify the row(s) where a match occurs when there can be multiple occurrences of the match.
A
B
C
1
john brown
Brown
True
2
Cathy Smith
3
Brown excavating company
4
XYZ Corp
5
Brown Advisors Inc.
The first test I ran in cell C1 with the information above was to determine if "Brown" was located in the range of A1:A5 using formula:
=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH("*"&B1&"*",A1:A5,0))=TRUE,"True","False")
In the case of the word "Brown" it occurs in the range of A1:A5 three times, so the result of the above formula would be "True"
Now what I would like to do is return the locations, in this case the row number(s), where the word brown is contained range of A1:A5 because in the case of the word Brown, it occurs three separate times in the range of A1:A5. I would like the resulting value of the formula in this case to be "1, 3, 5" indicating the word Brown occurs in rows 1, 3, and 5. The formula also needs to work in case there is only one match as well.
I tried using the below array formula:
={MATCH(FALSE,ISERROR(SEARCH(B1,'Working List of Vendors'!$A$1:$A$5)),0)}
But it would only return the first occurrence of the match which in this case would be row 1, or "1"
