VLookup With Duplicate Data
Jan 27, 2012
I have a table simmilar to this:
Reptile Dog Red
Reptile Tiger Purple
Mammal Tiger Stripes
Mammal Tiger Spots
Mammal Racoon Black
Mammal Cat Plaid
Mammal Dog Brown
Mammal Dog Purple
Reptile Dog Red
Reptile Tiger Purple
Tree Dog Orange
Tree Pine Green
I would like to use this data to populate within a seperate worksheet that reads:
Mammal, Tiger, Stripes
Mammal, Tiger, Spots
Mammal, Dog, Brown
Mammal, Dog, Purple
Essentially pulling all of one duplicate item within a column. The problem I ran into is when I run a vlookup within the entire table, it gave me duplicates.
Basically, it gave me...
Mammal, Tiger, Stripes
Mammal, Tiger, Stripes
Mammal, Tiger, Stripes
Mammal Tiger Spots
I know this is because of the array, just forwarding to the next item, and rerunning the lookup... since Mammal is not at the top... it has to wait till the array gets to the area of "mammal".
How do I create the list, so it will not create the duplicates... like in the example I gave.

Message board virgin here, but I need help with an excel issue so excuse me if I don't follow protocol.
I'm using vlookup to return the salesperson by serial number, but run into a problem when my criteria has a duplicate value, but my answers does not.
Here's my example:
Serial#, Salesperson
123 Bill
456 Bob
456 Suzy
789 Bob

I have a situation where I have about 20000 lines to populate and looking for a quicker alternative. I have duplicate numerical values in the lookup_value. I want the same number to appear for all lookup_value's but there is only one instance of that value on the other sheet I am searching. My table looks like this:
lookup_value
50058459
50058459
50058459
50058459
68594523
68594523
68594523
58965214
Table_array
Column A Column B
50058459 1234
68594523 9876
58965214 3456
I want my output of vlookup to look like this
Column A Column B
50058459 1234
50058459 1234
50058459 1234
50058459 1234
68594523 9876
68594523 9876

I want to check with the vlookup function and some other form of either index or other function where if I check (enter an ID) an ITEM ID and then it will tell me how many different products have been assigned to that ID ITEM. In some cases the ITEM ID has only used One Product, whereas other ITEM ID's have used muliple products.
I have attached an example of what I am trying to achive (its possible the same ITEM ID could have several products used against it.

I am currently busy with a material tracking sheet. The sheet tracks all the material from fabrication to being released from painters.
My problem is that in a summary sheet that I created, I used vlookup to get the exact value of the item number that was released.
Focus on Item # 043-06016
example summary.jpg
[Code] .....
This formula only gets the first value and not the 2nd value that was also released so that in my summary sheet i can get 2

I have an interesting problem where I am trying to display a list of top ten ranked items and I have multiple items tying for a rank, creating two or more values for one rank.
I have a table that shows the ranking, numbers 1 to 10. I'm using a vlookup formula to find the rank and return the corresponding name from my data table.
The problem I have is there are two that are tied for 3rd place, so I have two ranking at three. The current table looks something like this:
1 Warren
2 Stan
3 Mike
4 #N/A
5 Dan
I can change my table so that the numbers on the left are dynamic so it will display the number 3 twice if there are multiples of the same ranking, but when I do my lookup I'm still stuck.
Is there a way to return the second "3" on the lookup? Or is there a better way to solve the issue?

Writing this workbook in 2007, but it will be used in 2003. Have searched but can't find answer to this. I have a 5-column (A to E) table array and I'm using VLOOKUP in several other cells to return values in col2, 3, 4 & 5 with my lookup value being col 1. However, col 1 will contain numbers which occur more than once. How can I get VLOOKUP (or something else?) to pick the last occurence (lowest row) and use that one? Also, the array will be sorted - smallest to largest - as the rows go down - how will the SORT work on duplicate entries? I'd like, if possible, for the entry made most recently to be the lowest of the duplicate entries so that VLOOKUP (or whatever) will pick that one to use. Will any kind of SORT do that?

I need a User Defined Function (UDF) to Vlookup duplicate values in separate Columns.
I can't use an Array function as the data is huge and it takes lot of time to calculate.
I have attached a Input and the desired output in the file attached.

I have used a vlookup code from a past post (Vlookup multiple values in one cell) in VBA and successfully retrieved my information to one cell.
However, I would now like to remove any duplicates in this cell; preferably while running the same code.
--vlookup code
Public Function mVLOOKUP(mlookup_value As Range, mtable_array As Range, mcol_index_num As Long)
Dim r As Range

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'd like to create a drop down list in data validation from a column of data that contains numerous duplicates.
For example, let's say column A contained hundreds of transactions with either North, South, East and West, how could I create a drop down list in another cell that only had four selection options?

IIn my example I have result data from the 2013 USPGA Tour, ordered by player (column A) with subsequent columns detailing their finishing position in each event.
I simply want to condense each player's performance data into one row - as doing it by hand after each event is very time-consuming.
Is there a way of using a simple formula, macro or pivot table (or whatever) to merge each player into one row, but keep each column in the same position (ie to correspond to each weekly event).

I am trying to do is when a user enters in a GL (a 4 digit number) from the list (tab 2) I want it to appear in the summary box below. However the same GL number can be used multiple times so I will have duplicates. The data entered above will always change there is over 200 possiblities the user can enter. So I don't want the data to be specific it will populate based on what is entered by the user.
Can this even be done?????
Say if the user entered:
Column C Column G
4606 $20.00
4606 $20.00
2134 $15.00
2301 $35.00
4606 $100.00
The data in the GL and currency column in the summary box would appear as the following:
Column C Column G
2134 $15.00
2301 $35.00
4606 $140.00

I have a list of items which I want to return the number of sheets in stock at the end of the month which uses a lookup.
My problem is though is that products can appear on the list more than once, therefore I need an IF formula which if it’s a duplicate (other than the first instance) I need it to appear as zero.
I have attached a spreadsheet which may be clearer than above.
Your notice on the spreadsheet the same product appears in 4 difference racks however I only need it to show once the total sold and total receipted. I have shaded in grey the desired result.

I have an excel spreadsheet containing alot of data which looks something like this:
Material Plant
1 ABC
1 DEF
1 GHI
2 ABC
2 XXX
3 ABC
4 ABC
4 DEF
5 DEF
5 XXX
5 YYY
5 XYZ
As you can see, one material can exist in more than one plant.
What I want to do is to seperate the materials into 'blocks' (with a blank row) so that they exist seperatly. (I can then easily total up someother value in column C). Example:
Material Plant
1 ABC
1 DEF
1 GHI

i have is a worksheet, columns A thru J. Column B has names in it, Column F has dollar amounts. i need to create a macro to find the duplicate entries in column B, add them in column F (which would overwrite the existing amount) and then delete all the duplicates. all of the columns between A and J contain data. i was able to do this on an totally different sheet using columns A and D. but i did not have other data in the sheet. it's been a long time since i completed this other sheet and i need a refresher course in vba.
Sub finddups()
Dim Sh As Worksheet
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim Rng As Range
Set Sh = Worksheets(1)
Sh.Columns(5).Insert
LastRow = Sh.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
With Sh.Range("A1:A" & LastRow).Offset(0, 4)
.FormulaR1C1 = "=IF( COUNTIF(R1C[-4]:RC[-4],RC[-4])>1,"""",SUMIF(R1C[-4]:R[" & LastRow & "]C[-4],RC[-4],R1C[-1]:R[" & LastRow & "]C[-1]))"
.Value = .Value
End With
Sh.Columns(4).Delete........................
i need to convert this old macro to work with my new sheet. since the underlying ideas are the same i think it should work. however i am unable to get it right. i always end up deleting all my data.
