I want to do a VLookup from another sheet to but the problem is that where a patient had 2 or more procedures as in the case of pin # 6704 and 6780 above - I would have a second or third set of columns along side each other to show the different procedures.
I built an Excel Macro to pull information from my schedule and compile it within another Worksheet. The Macro below searches for an instance of "Unavailable" and then populates my Data Worksheet with the WeekDays (ie: M-W-F or ALL Week), the Details (ie: Vacation or Training) and the Name of the employee. I struggled with a way to populate my employee name as "unavailable" isn't always offset by the same amount of characters to employee name (as it is with WeekDays and Details). Instead, I collected the row in which "Unavailable" was found.
I used the Vlookup function to populate the number of Absences and it worked swell.
=VLOOKUP(C2,O:P,2,FALSE)
C2 is populated with Weekdays (ie: ALL week or M-W-F) O contains a list of possible day combinations P contains the number of days
I hoped to use a similar function to populate my employee names. This didn't work well a 'tall.
A B C D E F G 23445566894 Brwn pdc aft Cat1 45687930596 $5 45687930596 Gld wdget adi Cat2 23445566894 $6
In the example above, I would like to do a vlookup in column C that matches the digits in column A to those in column F, with the output being the corresponding value in column G. I believe it involves the left function but not sure how to really use it here.
I have a mass of data which look something like this:
table removed
and I require the ranges of reference numbers to be listed in a column one above the other, which requires inserting new rows. I also need the date & description columns copied down into the newly inserted rows.
So basically for example I would want the top row to now read:
table removed
and then apply the same procedure to the other ranges below this.
I have use the follwing lookup formula on a number for eg 2275A, but it returns zero. However, If I use the lookup table on the description pertaining to 2275A , which is in column A, I get a zero value.....
I want to create a certification only list on a separate tab of training that has been completed where a certification has been issued (as indicated by a "Y" in the "Certification?" column on the training tracking tab) and then populate from some of the fields vs. all of the fields.
What I have now, only pulls the first occurence, not all occurences. I saw that I could have identified the multiple columns that needed to be populated, but it didn't work either, so I'm fine putting a separate vlookup in each column.
I have a list of thousands of SKU numbers. Most of these numbers look like this: 5212345. However I have a group of products whose numbers look like this: 0123456. As you can see my problem the SKU numbers start with a 0.
In my spreadsheet the user is going to be typing in the SKU number and that will be used to return other information regarding that SKU. Is it possible to design a vlookup function to be used with both types of SKU's or do I need to come up with something creative regarding the SKU's that start with 0's.
I am using a lookup formula to look up data associated with part numbers. The part numbers are formated as text (in both tables) since many of them have leading zeros and if formated as a number, the zero drops off.
I find that sometimes the lookup does not work but if I go into the cell and retype the number, it will works. I have also tried recreating the number using the text formula and that works on nuumbers that don't include a dash. I don't understand what's happening to the data and want to know how to reformat it so the lookup will work.
I have a very large database (42455 lines) which has three columns. The column A is a shipment number which is a combination of numbers and letters, column B is a ship date, column C is a dollar value for each shipment. This range (A2:C42455) is named SHIPMENTS. I have a second database right next to it that contains warranty information. Column D has the shipment number, Column E has the date the warranty call came in. These last two columns have only 2788 lines.
I'm using VLOOKUP in column F to match Ship dates with Warranty Call dates. The formula is:
=VLOOKUP(D2,SHIPMENTS,2,False)
and was dragged down all 2788 lines.
Out of the 2788 lines it did not find dates for 301 of them. Some of those 301 have Shipment numbers that are only numbers (no letters). As a test I copied one of the "unfound and all numbers" shipment numbers and did a control+F for all of column A and it found it. Clearly VLOOKUP is missing some of the Shipment numbers. I made sure that the Shipment number in column A matches the number in column D by cancelling out of the Find window and clicking on the found cell. Then I made sure there are no stray spaces tacked onto the end of the number and there were none. I hit enter.
At this point excel starts calculating again and when I go back up to the VLOOKUP (In column F) it has now found the data I've asked it for originally. I've not changed any of the values of either cell...All I've done is use Control+F to manually find the Shipment number in SHIPMENTS and then verified that there were no spaces in the found cell by clicking on it and using the arrow keys. Once that was done I hit enter.
Somehow this sequence of actions allows VLOOKUP to now find the cell.
I am trying to create a formula which looks in 1 cell to determine 'IF' it states either "BUTT CUT" or "DIE CUT" and then does a VLOOKUP in a table array for each which ever column relates to asnwer to 'IF statement.
This is as far as I have got but even this won't work:
I tried to show pictures according to numbers code in my list on the sheet 2, during the xploring of web i saw some examples with vlookup and data validation functions.
I think I need a macro to do this. Can I use vlookup function for a range of number? lets say I have number 1001 to 1005. i want to combine the result. any other way other than using this formula
I have a hierarchy of system requirements where the hierarchy is represented in "ID" (Column A) by a structure such as: 1: Parent 1.1: Child of 1 1.1.1: Child of 1.1 and Grand-child of 1 etc., you get the picture. My hierarchy is 5 deep at most, there are no spaces, just numbers and periods.
I have to "massage" the spreadsheet to relate the requirements based on their "Name" (Column B) rather than through their "ID" (Column A). So I created "Parent ID" (Column C) that calculates the ID of the Parent or "0" if there's no Parent.
Now, I need to lookup the value of "Name" for that "Parent ID" and put it in "Parent Name" (Column D). The formula I have come up with is "=VLOOKUP((C2),$A1:$B1000,2,FALSE)"
As you see in the attached spreadsheet, the only time this works is when the "Parent ID" contains at least two periods, otherwise I get a "#N/A" result.
I have a column of numbers I want to look up, and a column of results to the right I want to spit out. So I have the vlookup formula in column G, H a copy of that, except it's showing the formula instead of result. Same thing with I and J. So you can see the actual formula.
I've manually found the first two numbers and colored them red and green... but I can't seem to get the formula to work.. As you can see, it's only able to find the negative numbers, but not any of the positive numbers.
I tried to test the cells if they are equal or not, and they seem to be equal!
I have a list of part numbers which repeat when there are multple prices they were sold at. For each unique part number I need one median price. The list if of about 500 parts but with the various different prices the file is 3700 rows. How can i do this quickly? For each unique part number I need one median price.
I've 2 worksheets, Summary and Sales. I need to get the total sales figure from the "Sales" worksheet onto the Summary worksheet. Sales data are pasted onto the worksheet monthly. Tried using vlookup but problem is, the column containing the total sales figure may vary and I need to update the vlookup formula. Another problem is that sometimes the Total sales (the lookup value) is not in the first column. Tried using the Index and Match combo but cannot get it to work. I've attached a simple mock up to hopefully illustrate my case better. I believe the experts in this forum should find this rather easy!
I'm using the vlookup function to pull numbers off an array. Is there a way that I can get the vlookup function to pick the smallest number greater than or equal to my Look_up value. If not is there a function that can do that?
How can I create a vlookup function to automatically retrieve phone numbers off switchboard.com using my current mailing list?
I have a list of more than 4,000 of my customers. I want to ad in phone numbers automatically. I currently have the first and last name in one column. The address, city, state and zip are all each in their own column.
I have never use vlookup before, nor have I ever used excel other than for data entry. What is the easiest and most efficient way to do this?
I searched this site and seen vlookup mentioned for this type of automatic data entry. There may be another way or method I am not aware of.
I have two worksheets in one document. On sheet 'M_Admission' there are numbers for each week. can those numbers be automatically copied to the correct cell on sheet 2 'M_Actual' See the attached Excel worksheet to see what I mean. (Excel 2002)
I have a column (B) of randomly generated numbers 1-14, and am using this formula range to sort in descending order and return the relevant value from column (c).
=VLOOKUP(LARGE(B3:B20,1),B3:C20,2,) to =VLOOKUP(LARGE(B3:B20,14),B3:C20,2,)
Works great, except when a number is duplicated, (E.G. 14,13,13,12,11,10,10,9,8 etc). It then returns the first value from(C) repeated, and not the value from the second and subsequent duplicated reference numbers.
I have created a spreadsheet to show some reports and I wanted to serch for some datas which overloops themeselves. If you can have a look at a test file I attached you will see the full picture. I have 2 tables, where the 2nd one is on the right side of the 1st one. 1st table:..............
I have a spreadsheet with 5 worksheets. I want VLookup to read the City and State in the two columns next to the County Column in the custmast worksheet. Compare the city and state to the worksheets AL, FL and GA worksheets and return the correct County and Territory Code found in the Territory worksheet in the County Column and Territory Column in custmast worksheet. I've attached a file for better understanding.
Is there such a thing as a multiple value Vlookup? Basically, here's my problem (please refer to image):
On the left are columns for Date, Time and Price. On the right, there is a blank column for Req Price which has to be filled with the corresponding price based on the Req Date and Req Time. So for cell H2, there should be the price that corresponds to 1/4/00 and 8:25:00, which would be 97.00 (which comes from cell C4). If say there is no price that corresponds then the cell is simply filled with an #N/A (which would be the case for cell H4). Then so on and so forth for the remaining cells in column H.
Is there like a Vlookup function wherein you can specify 2 lookup values or something? Or should a macro be used for this sort of thing?
I am trying to simplify a complex array formula using a UDF. I am trying to return multiple corresponding values horizontally. Can this be translated to VBA?
