VLOOKUP To Miss Blanks (the Dots Are Blank Cells)

Apr 15, 2008

I have about 90+ lists of data which looks like this: (the dots are blank cells)

Set 1
D0 Jimmy
...
D1 Keith
D2 Dave
...
...
D3 Sandra

Set 2
...
D0 Andy
D1 Ryan
...
...
...
...
...
D2 Lee

Each list was originally a set of names and i have populated the "D1, D2" cells (where D1 = the first name, D2 = the second, etc).

Is there any way, on a seperate sheet i can get a list which shows the following (ie. no spaces between lines of data):

Set 1 Set 2
Jimmy Andy
Keith Ryan
Dave Lee
Sandra

Is this possible through a VLOOKUP?

Change Empty Cells To Blank Cells (need To Use Skip Blanks Function)

Mar 8, 2014

I have a spreadsheet where a column has many cells being empty and others with values. I need to use copy-paste skip blanks to another column so it only overwrites cells that contains values. BUT The cells in the column appears to be empty, not blank, when I try use the copy-paste skip blanks it doesnt work. However, when I press delete in every empty cell the copy-paste skip blanks works for those cells.

Do you got a fast method to make all the empty cells blank?

Populate VLookup Into Blank Cells

Jul 24, 2008

spans over columns A:BM.
column headers are in Row 2, data starts in Row 3
the number of rows varies month-to-month
in column A, the values are either N or Y.
Column B contains xREF numbers, where if the value = N, the xREF is unique; for values = Y, the xREF = an N value xREF number (hope that makes sense!)
Where column A value = Y, some row cells are empty. All N record cells are populated.
starting in Column C, I want all empty cells (basically all rows where column A = Y) to be populated with a VLookup formula where:
Ø lookup_value = xREF in column B
Ø table_array = all N values records spanning B:BM

I can get it to work for column C by autofilling to the last row but if I autofill across columns, the col_index_num stays the same and I can’t figure out how to increase it by 1 as it autofills across.

Sub RangeLookUp()
Dim Rg As Range
For x = 3 To Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
If Range("A" & x).Value = "N" Then
Set Rg = Range(Range("B3"), Range("BM3").End(xlDown))
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="TheRange", RefersToR1C1:=Rg
End If
Next x
' VLookup for blank cells........................

Filter Miss-Matched Dates Between 2 Columns

Sep 9, 2009

I have 3 times series data in excel (returns on stock, market return and risk free return), each has their own date corresponding to its return, so 6 columns all up.

Imagine it like this:
Date | Stock Return -- Date | Market Return -- Date | Risk Free Return

The problem is that the 3rd data set (risk free return), its date column mismatch the dates column of the first two (returns on stock and market). So the obviously solution is to basically get the third time series data to only show the same dates as the first two.

I want to use the first two data sets date's as like a benchmark for the third data set to only show those dates.

I have tried filter/advanced filter in Excel 2007 and spent ages on google/youtube but no luck; it wont let me try to match specific cells to filter out dates from a specific series of cells.

VLookup To Return 0 And Blanks?

Mar 4, 2013

I have a formula that needs to return blanks as blank and 0s as 0. The vlookup formula will return blanks as 0, or I can make it return a blank whenever it is zero (below), but some cells may have a 0 record that need to return 0s, not blank.

Right now I am missing a few records that are entered as "0". I have:

=IFERROR(IF(VLOOKUP(O16,'Sheet1'!$A:$Z,8,FALSE)=0,"",VLOOKUP(O16,'Sheet1'!$A:$Z,8,FALSE)),"")

Macro To Search For Blanks In A Column And Enter Static Value For Each Blank?

Jun 18, 2013

So this is what I am trying to do, I have a column in my data that is for telephone numbers. When I receive the file some of the fields are blank in that column. I need to add to my current macro a part that evaluates the column for blanks and adds a static telephone number in the blanks (up to the last row of data in the file). I have been able to accomplish this with the following:

Range("N2").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Select
Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).Select
Selection.FormulaR1C1 = "1112223333"

However, when the file that I receive has a telephone number in all the fields the code breaks at this point. I have tried On Error Resume Next, but that just replaces all the remaining cells in the column with the static 1112223333..

Excel 2010 :: VLookup Result Blank If Column Index Number Is Blank

Mar 3, 2014

The below piece of code carries out a vlookup on a defined cells value and produces a result in sheet one, however if the column index number in sheet 2 (Database) is empty the result 00/01/1900 is produced.

I'm not sure how to say leave the result blank if the column index number is blank.

VLOOKUP - If Table Array Is Blank Need It To Return Blank?

I am creating a tracking spreadsheet where i can toggle between months (attached). It returns data properly when I select January or February from the yellow highlighted dropdown list. However, when i choose March, it returns 1/0/1900 because no data has been entered for March (table array) on the AAAG tab. How do I write the formula to return a blank cell on the summary sheet when no information has been entered into the table array yet?

Connecting The Dots

May 2, 2007

I have 1 row of user entry cells (A1:Z1). To keep it simple, let’s say A1 is always 0 and Z1 is always 100.

The user can enter any positive number in any of the cells. For Case 1, let’s say ‘20’ in M1.
I want a set of formulas in A2:Z2 that fills in the values with straightlined values from 0 to 20 from A2:L2 and 20 to 100 in N2:Z2.

For Case 2, the user enters ‘10’ in M1 and ‘60’ in T1 and the formulas in A2:Z2 fill in the appropriate values that connect the empty cells (i.e., 0 to 10, then 10 to 60, then 60 to 100).

Basically, a user enters 1 or more numbers in 1 row, and the second row fills in all the non-entered cells with #s that are straightlined, thus ‘connecting the dots’.

I think a bunch of nested IF statements might work, but it’ll be hairy and nested IF statements are a resource hog. Any better ideas? I’m think maybe some INDEX and MATCH functions.

Plot Dots On A Map With Data

Mar 30, 2014

I am planning on creating a map of a badminton court. I am hoping to record each hit of the shuttlecock with a dot on the map. Of course I want this to be inputted by data rather than manually inserting a circle shape and placing it in the correct location each time.

is there any way to do this in excel?

Code To Join Dots

Dec 16, 2009

Cells E39:E53 are conditionally formatted to fill red if cell $AB$13=the cell 3 to its left .. eg: cell E39 would fill red if cell B39 (the cell 3 to the left of E39) is equal to cell $AB$13

Only one cell in the range will meet the condition at any time.

I also have the same range conditionally formatted to fill black if cell $AF$13=the cell 3 to its left .. eg: cell E39 would fill black if cell B39 (the cell 3 to the left of E39) is equal to cell $AF$13

Ranges F39:F53, and G39:G53, H39:H53 etc etc etc (all the way up to X39:X53) are all conditionally formatted the same way.

What I would like is for the cell that fills red in the first range to have a line connecting it to the cell that fills red in the second range, etc etc etc.

And the same for the cells that fill black.

Creating a chart from my data is not an option for other reasons, so I'd like to explore this possibility.

Looking forward VBA coding for:

If input is entered into column C (range C2:C100), then row cells for columns D, E ,F, H or I must NOT be blank upon save.
Could be that one or more of these row cells are left blank by mistake.

Ignore Blank Cells And Truly Blank Cells In Named Range?

Jan 13, 2014

Ok so my named range looks like this:

[Code]....

However, I want to ignore the "" cells and the truly blank cells... However, I think all of them will have "" since I have this formula in all of the ones I'm putting in the range:

How do I go about getting these results into a named range so I can use it on validation since validation only seems to ignore truly blank cells and not the "" ones.

SUM Last 6 Cells With Data (ignoring Blanks In Between)

Aug 8, 2014

I want to count back the last 6 cells in column S which has data (ignoring any blank cells) and add them up.

My data is ranging betwen S62:S143 (with S144 being the cell that I want to show the total for the last 6 cells with data). I have column headings and various other bits of data from S1:S61 that I want to exclude completely but need to keep for historical purposes.

Here is an example of some of the data in column S:

56
BLANK CELL
BLANK CELL
BLANK CELL
45
34
BLANK CELL
BLANK CELL
37
BLANK CELL
BLANK CELL
42
BLANK CELL
46
49
BLANK CELL
BLANK CELL
36
35

This is my formula so far:

=SUM(OFFSET(S62,0,0,COUNTA(S62:S143)))

I have tried adding a negative and positive number on the end of the COUNTA formula but all it does is count all the cells within that given heigh range, not a specific number of cells with data.

I don't specifically need to use SUM. As long as I get a total.

Replace Blanks With Adjacent Cells

Aug 30, 2007

I use an old accounting program to download sales history into excel. For sales where there is only one line item and therefore 1 row, there is no problem. Sales with multiple items show a summary of the sale in the first row and the line item details in rows after.

On multiple item sales (shaded in yellow), the total postage is shown in the summary row (shaded in orange). The postage fields in the line items are blank (shown shaded in blue). I need to split the total postage by number if line items and put the value in the line items. i.e. if the total postage is $10 for two items, I need to show $5 for each line item.

The summary row identifies the number of line items in the "Qty" column ( cells in green). This cell could be used to divide into the postage (in orange) and also count how many rows below to put the answer in
