VLOOKUP - Using Column Name Instead Of Column Number
Mar 24, 2003
I would like to do a VLOOKUP (or similar operation) to grab information from a column based on a column name instead of column number.
For example, instead of:
=vlookup(a2,t5:z10,4,FALSE)
I would like the formula to read:
=vlookup(a2,t5:t10,"COLUMN_NAME",FALSE)

Is there a way to put a formula within a Vlookup formula that will act as the column number? For example I have this simple Vlookup formula: VLOOKUP($B4,'TAB'!$A:$N,8) and 8 references the year 2014. Well if I update the numbers on the separate tab and the year 2014 changes to a different column, I want the formula to automatically change to that.

I WANT it to search all of column A for the highest number in the range (which will change daily to a new high number above the highest currently), and return the value in column 4 (column D) that corresponds to that value from column A. This is what I have, but it is not working, it is giving me the number (1) in Cell A800 (which is the lowest valued number in my range. The numbers range in value from 1 to 762 with none repeating (they are sequential). The formula I have is :
=+VLOOKUP(MAX(A76:A2000),A76:I2000,4)

=IF(ISNUMBER(VLOOKUP($E8,Su!$D:$K,7,FALSE)),VLOOKUP($E8,Su!$D:$K,7,FALSE),)*$I8
In the first vlookup it picks up a value. I need to do the same vlookup function but it should also pick up another value in column 9 and should add value in column 7 and 9 and return it. Employee id numbers are in column E in the first page.My formula checks for the employee id in Su sheet and retrieves the value from the seventh column. I need to retrieve also from 9 th column and add them together.

use the VLOOKUP function when the column I need to search is not column A?
I have a Workbook with two worksheets in it and in Sheet 1 I have 10 columns of various text and numbers. In cell A1 of sheet 2 I will fill with a certain code that appears in column E in Sheet 1. The result I would be looking for should come from Column A in Sheet 1. I thought that the following would work copied into B1 of Sheet 2 but it doesn't appear to - =VLOOKUP($A1,'Sheet 1'!E$1:$E$481,1,FALSE).

Currently, I have a standard vlookup forumla that looks like =Vlookup(B2,Sheet2!A:G,5,false)
However, the data on sheet two is ever expanding--each month, specifically. And I need to return the most recent (so, rightmost filled) column. Right now, the column is 5, but next month it will be 6 and so on and so forth.

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.
Excel 2010
Userform = Tab 1
Database = Tab 2

I'm trying to write a code that calculates 2nd column based on 3rd column's number or vice versa based on the condition set on the 1st column. Below, there are two procedures. "SimpleCalc" and "SimpleCalc2". I first wrote SimpleCalc2, but it isn't working, so I worked around the error by writing SimpleCalc, which selects a cell and moves around by offset. I personally find it hard to read and error prone as I develop more logic around it.
I'm trying to develop more function based on this code, so I need to make it neat and flexible. what I'm doing wrong in SimpleCalc2? Or do you have any suggestion to improve the code "SimpleCalc"? I'm using Excel 2003.
Sub SimpleCalc()
Dim SimpleMethodRng, SimpleMethod As String, i As Integer
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Dashboard").Range("P5").Select
SimpleMethodRng = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Dashboard").Range("N5:P12")
For i = 1 To 8
SimpleMethod = SimpleMethodRng(i, 1).........

I have a spreadsheet with sales which I colour green when they are outstanding and red when they are despatched. I would like to automatically add a 1 in an adjoining column when the cell is green (eg outstanding) or zero when they are despatched so that it totals up the number of outstanding orders.
a b
172.95 (this column would be green)
024.00 (this cell would be red)
124.00 (this cell would be green)
132.25 (this cell would be green)

I work in a factory where we create different types of units daily. Below is a list of planned production on a specific date, say today's date. This is a very crude example, with information missing, and it is important to know that there are conditions attached such as:
The types are added randomly. The amount of types is much greater meaning that each type is on it's own page with breaks between. Everything produced on this date will have a URN (unique reference number) with its first 6 digits equating to yy-mm-dd and the last two being the position of the unit in the production sequence (first=01, second=02 etc).
I have gotten it to the point where if you enter them in sequence (Type A first for example) it will lookup to see the last assigned URN and taking the quantity into account issue the correct URNs.
The issues I have are when the URNs are less than "10", there is a problem displaying the 0 before the digit which disrupts the sequence. I can provide more clear examples if required.

I am creating a tool that is populating information off of another excel document and presenting the information in a different format then the data originally appears. Basically I am unsure how to create a formula, for example, in cell A1, that as I drag it down (A2, A3, etc) the column letter in the formula advances but the row number remains the same. In another words as the formula moves into cell A2, the "Sheet1!D3" changes to "Sheet1!E3", where as normally it would advance to "Sheet1!D4". I just started back up in excel, im sure this is way easier then I am making it seem but I have been unable to come up with a solution.

In my spreadsheet, I have a column for credit card totals (G) and cash totals (J)
I am adding the amounts for Food (Column B), Liquor (Column C), Wine (Column D), Beer (Column E), and Taxes ( Column F) for a total in Column G.
However, Column G is only for credit card totals and I want to do the same calculations for cash totals (Column J) using the same B through F Column without those numbers being plugged back into Column G, when I have no credit card total.

I have a spreadsheet with rows of data. I need a formula that will return the column number of the last column in a row where there is a value >0.
Let's say that cells A1:F1 contain values. Some have values of 0 while others have values >0. I need a formula in cell G1 that will tell me the column number of the last value >0.
A B C D E F
0 2 5 0 6 0
So the formula in G1 would return a value of 5, which corresponds to column E.

in column 2, something may have multiple numbers, but it must have something in column 1 that is equal to 0.
ex. everything above is ok except the 2-06 because it needs a cooresponding 0-06. I need some way to flag these so that i know when there is something in column 2 without a cooresponding 0 in column 1
