VLookup To Ignore Certain Data
Mar 1, 2006
Can I get VLookup to ignore certain data.
My situation is this,
Sheet 1 has
ColumnA Column B
Name Job#
Bob 1234
Bob 1235
Bob 1236
On Sheet 2 I have a combo box so I can pick any name from column A on sheet
one, then I want to use Vlookup, or whatever will work, to show me the Job
numbers that a selected person has worked on. So when I pick "bob" from my
combo box in A1, B1:B3 would display 1234, 1235, 1236.

I have a huge data set that simplified looks like the one below.
I would like to write a vlookup formula that ignores vlookup-value="need manual input", "", and "N/A", and instead continue to find the next lookup value that is not equal to "". if no match at all or only match to "" or "need manual input" I want the output to be "need manual input"
So, in worksheet 1 cell B1 i want to generate value 73530C10 (lookup-table cannot be sorted)
Worksheet 1
A
1
Bob
2
John

I have in column D starting D9, I have numbers starting at 1, and may finish at 100. But there could be duplicates, 1,2,3,3,4,5,6,6,7,7,8,9,10,10,11,12,13,.........
I would like to only copy the range D9 to H (End of column D), ignoring all the duplicate numbers, to another sheet.
So on the second sheet, it would be 1,2,3,4,5,6...... with the data copied from E,F,G and H.

In column A I have a list of text. There are blank lines in between the cell that actually contain text. What I am trying to accomplish is create a validation list that will give me only the cells with text in them and ignore the blanks. For example in column A1:A7 I have the following text:
John
Mike
Tony
Jake
My validation list will return those names but will also give me the blanks in between the names.
Is there any way to ignore the blanks?

I have two sheets in my workbook: one holds data (Sheet2), the other processes the data (Sheet1). Sheet2 has temperature data for each hour of every day during the year 1997 - about 9000 rows. Sheet1 averages the temperatures for each day together, and therefore has only 365 rows.
However, some of the data is missing - null values are represented by the value -9999. Sheet1 only averages hourly data if there at least 22 non-null values. If there are fewer than 22 non-null values, a message is written into the cell to indicate such. (See day 119 on Sheet1 in the attached file for an example of this)
I have the formula worked out to this point; however, I'd like to add in one more constraint: if a day has 2 or fewer null values, I still would like to average the data, but omit the null values in the average. (See day 118 on Sheet1 in the attached file for an example of this). My formula so far:

I have a cell with two parts of data which looks like this 21A (5.5) now 21A is a location plot number and the (5.5) is the area in rods of the plot.
Now I need to calculate the cost of this plot by multiplying the number of rods by the cost per rods, so is there a way of just using the number in the brackets in a sum and ignoring the rest of the information, now I know I could just make another cell with the 5.5 bit in it but it makes the spread sheet too complicated and wide

I'm trying to do a Data Validation list where there is a range from A1:A10 named List, but there are only values in A1:A5.
For the drop down menu, I've done the Data Validation and List, and made it =List. The problem with that is, I only want the drop down to give the options if there is a value (A1:A5 not all of A1:A10). I thought that the Ignore blanks feature would do that, but it does absolutely nothing.

I'd like to compute the average of a few numbers, but only if the data has a certain number of non-null values. I've attached my Excel sheet for reference.
I have relevant data in columns B and D, where B represents a day and D represents temperature. I'd like to average the temperatures together for each day and place the result in column E. However, this must be done only if each day has at least 22 non-null values (null values are represented by -9999).
A perfect example is day 296 - my average is thrown completely off by the existence of several null values in the last half of the day.
In addition to the problem above, I'd also like to only compute the average using the non-null values (ie, if a day has 23 non-null values and 1 null value, I want to ignore the null value in the average calculation - see day 222 as an example).

I have the following chart that displays average speed for my bike rides (Green line). The problem is that I don't want the line going to points with no value or zero value. So, the first month would just be the point then, when I enter in an avg speed in Feb then the line would connect to Feb. Is this possible?

I have a worksheet (Data) that lists when pupils are in for Nursery sessions during the week. If they are in they have a 3 (hours) by their name in the relevant columns.
In the AM worksheet I now need to pull through a "register" so under each daily heading I need to pull through everyone that has a 3 next to their name under Monday AM / Tuesday AM / Wednesday AM etc. from the Data sheet. However, I don't want it to copy any blank cells. I then need to do the same for the PM sheet.

I'm trying to do a Vlookup on a file that gets automatically downloaded to the computer from a website. The data is in lots of different data sets, like so:
Loans to countries
Mar
Apr
May
Jun
Loans to banks
Mar
Apr
May
Jun
Every month a new row of data gets added to each table, meaning the start and end cells of the array also shift each time.

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 am trying to figure the sum of cells B12:B28. However some of the cells in the range have a #N/A error due to a VLOOKUP function that is pulling data from a different sheet. Currently the data it is pulling is a blank cell, but will at some point have a value in it. How can I make the SUM function ignore the #N/A?

I have a column of numbers that are calculated by a formula that doesn't always come up with an answer and returns the value #NUM!. See the attached XLS. The answer to the sum function is always #NUM! if a #NUM! is included in column of values put into the SUM function. I currently work around this issue by redoing the column with the SUM statement to avoid the #NUM!'s. Is there a logical test that can be applied to solve this issue? an I add another column that reset the #NUM! to ZERO and then SUM that column?

I have Dynamic named ranges (SUMPV)
SUMPV is range I31:I300
I use the following formula to sum up.
=SUM(SUMPV)
The problem is that sume cells night produce #value thus giving an error in the Sum formula.
I tried the =SUMIF(SUMPV,"#N/A") but not working..

I am using a lookup function to return nalues to a column. Some of the values returned are ### and I cannot SUM this column. I either need to adjust the lookup formula to not return ### or adjust the SUM function to ignore ###.

I have a small problem. Basically what I need to do is this: I'm setting the initial value of my combobox to say "Select a Payer". The combobox has a list of insurance payers. When one is selected by the user they click a button and on another sheet is displayed thier selection in a Pivot Table. Unfortunately, when the user selects nothing (the combobox stays at "Select a Payer") problems occurr.
What I want is to use if combobox1.value = "Select a Payer" then combobox1.value = {the first actual Payer in the list}. Index number 1 ?

Let's say I have a set of values (A1:A10) where each contains a number, with a varied amount of decimal places (some may have 0, some may have 10)...how can I make a formula in cell B1 that averages A1:A10, ignoring the decimal places (rounding to the nearest whole number)
For example, if this was A1:A10
93.11
94
92.12321
95.1
96.7
98.1
99
100.03
88.6677
85.6675
If I did the Average (=AVG(A1:A10)), I would get 94.2498. But I don't want this, I want the formula to take into account the numbers rounded to the nearest whole number, meaning, I want to take the average of..
93
94
92
95
97
98
99
100
89
86
Which would give me a value of 94.3.. In this example, there isn't much of a difference, but I was simplifying the numbers for time sake

The summary page summarises the source data into how much revenue each department has made over 12 months.
However the formula in Summary worksheet column B will only total up the amounts if the month in the Source worksheet column B is the 1st of the month. How do I change the formula in Summary worksheet column B to purely go by month and ignore the day?

I am using the vlookup function to pull in values from another sheet that I will call sheet2. I am using a cell reference for the lookup value on sheet1.
On sheet1, the value in the reference cell has a superscript "1" that corresponds to a footnote at the bottom of the page. The corresponding lookup value on sheet2 does not have any superscript. Is it possible to make the vlookup function ignore the superscript for the purpose of the lookup?
