Vba Lookup Not Recognizing Value
Oct 26, 2007
I am tryig to create a macro that looks up a value between two workbooks. In the workbook the value may be on the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd worksheet. So far all that is returned after the macro is run is a cell with the formula in it with no values. This is the macro formula:
Do While rcnt <= lrow
Cells(rcnt, 3) = "=if(iserror(vlookup(cells(rcnt,2),rng1,12,0))=false,vlookup(cells(rcnt,2),rng1,12,0),if(iserror(vlookup(cells(rcnt,2),rng2,12,0))=false,vlookup(cells(rcnt,2),rng2,12,0),if(iserror(vlookup(cells(rcnt,2),rng3,12,0))=false,vlookup(cells(rcnt,2),rng3,12,0),"""")))"
rcnt = rcnt + 1
Loop

I have a football pool worksheet. My goal is to have a button that displays a message box with the players in order of how many points they have. So far I have been able to display this message box with one problem...
The problem occurs when there is a tie between two players. If they have they same score it will only display the first score in the row. In my attachments when you press the macro button "score" it displays a message box saying:
"Sue is in first place with 12 points.
Bob is in second place with 9 points.
Bob is in third place with 9 points.
Larry is in forth place with 3 points."
I want it to say:
"Sue is in first place with 12 points.
Bob and Dave are tied for second with 9 points.
Larry is in (third or forth, doesn't matter) place with 3 points."
Even if it needs to say
"Bob is in second place with 9 points.
Dave is in third place with 9 points."
would be an improvement.
Here is my code so far and i've attached the file.

I have a spreadsheet which will be used to measure raw material consumption by day.
I wish to list all days of a year down a column - that I can do.
However, I would like to conditionally format any cell (preferably the row) which contains either a Saturday or a Sunday.

In a Worksheet On Change event I am trying to obtain a new value that the user has placed into a particular cell.
However, when I get to the line of code that reads the value in that particular cell, it is pulling the value that was in the cell prior to the change. When I view the sheet I can see the new value. When I do a debug.print or ? in the Immediate Window it shows the prior value.

I am trying to do an "if" statment to look in every 23rd cell to see if it is greater than 0. if it is it populates what is in that cell. That is fine...
The problem is i want to create the "if" statement just a couple of time manually, than drag it down 300 rows and have it look every 23 cells. It does not recognize the pattern???

I have a date of hire column in mm/dd/yyyy with 5000 rows. It contains many different formats and I need to sort it by year. Is it possible to sort by year and include all months, i.e. everyone hired in 2008, by month.
It also seems that Excel is not recognizing some of the formats as dates.

I guess because I use a drop down box and another cell reference for the date, my IF/AND statement isn't recognizing the date and therefore gives me a "FALSE" result. I have the date formatted as a date.
I've tried referring to cell I2 which is the drop down box - that doesn't work. I've tried using quotes around the date as if it were text - that doesn't work. If I use just the w10=3 part, that'll work fine but it must be associated with the proper week otherwise every 3rd of the month that falls on a friday will be a holiday.

I am working in two different files. If number "40556" on worksheet B is showing on worksheet A, the function is to state "TRUE", but it's stating "FALSE". Both files' numbers are listed as GENERAL under FORMAT CELLS.

I've got an Excel 2003 sheet where column E has a 6-digit code input into it. I'm able to right a function off that code that outputs if E2 (for example) equals 123456 then H2 outputs "Dog," if E2 equals 123457 then H2 outputs "Cat," and so on until I reach the max of 7 nested functions. Problem is, I have a lot more than 7 codes that I need to analyze. This Excel sheet will be used every two weeks, with lots of codes input that need to have what the code means output. I created a named formula called "part1" where: =if(sheet1!E2=123456,"Dog",if(sheet1!E2=123457,"Cat", etc. It didn't work when I had $ in front of E & 2.
All variables in "part1" work when tested where H2 = part1. I created a "part2" with more variables, checked each and it works too. My problem now is that when I have H2 set to =if(part1,part1,part2) to test all the variables, it'll work on any variable in "part2" but not in "part1."

I have an autofilter setup with 3 values: "Show", "Hide" and "Always". The show/hide values are dependent if formulas based on other cells.
I have two sheets with this filter (Template and Summary); the filter works fine on the Template tab, however on the Summary tab...
When filtered to only show values "Always" and "Show", the filter only recognizes some of the "Show" values. I have copy pasted the if formula from the rows that work to the rows that don't and verified the formatting is the same. There are no named ranges that may be screwing it up and no empty cells in the filter range.
If I manually unhide the rows in questions, then run the filter, the rows stay shown. However, if I run the filter to only show "Always", then run it again to show "Always" or "Show", then the rows in question disappear.
I also have vba assigned objects for show and hide (the same scripts are used for the Template sheet and the Summary sheet), but the issue persists when using the buttons.
I hard code "Show" instead of it being an if formula, the filter works fine. But the formula that doesn't work is also used on rows that do work.

In cell I2 I have a data validation list. If the selection is "2" then I want to copy and paste a value from another cell to another sheet.
I did a recorded macro but the code does not recognize the selection from the data validation celll, I2.
Is there some code I can add to get the macro to recognize what the user selected?

I'm using a macro to send the contents of a sheet to an html file. The problem I am having is that for some reason it is not recognizing the blank cells in the last column (column 9) of the sheet, thus I am not getting the " " that I need in the html code. The code for column 7 works fine and is identical. I did a test and selected column 9, right clicked, and "Cleared Contents". When I ran the macro again it worked fine. The problem is that sometimes there may be data in column 9, so I can't clear it. Here's the code I'm using. Is there another condition I can use to look for a blank cell or something I can do to the spreadsheet for my code to work?
If Cells(i, 9) = "" Then
a.writeline " <td valign=""top""> </td>"
Else
a.writeline " <td valign=""top"">" & Cells(i, 9).Text & "</td>"
End If

Perhaps I missed something in the basics of Excel as to how a table's column header is formatted.Also, my date format is dd/mm/yyyy
When using a basic formula, such as below, in A1 and Cells A2 and B2 have the dates 1/01/2013 and 2/01/2013, this code works fine.
VB : =If(A2<=Today(),"Yes";"No")
BUT, when you convert those two dates to a table, the formula with post No.
However, if you make another formula as show below, the correct day will come up.
VB : =Text(A2,"dddd")
When auto filling the dates in the row, without a table, the dates increase per day.
When auto filling the dates in the row, with a table, the dates increase per year. (And yes, even when 3+ dates are inserted, highlighting those 3 and then autofill.)
Why does a column header change the format and to what format is it changed to?
Why do some formulas output accurate date based on the date in the column header and others do not?
Why do the dates increase per day without a table and per year with a table?

Whenever I copy and paste dates from the internet I can't get Excel to recognize the info as dates, thus making it impossible to sort by date. It doesn't matter which site I use, I have the problem with all of them.
[URL]
Using any of the links above, how I can paste those dates and get Excel to sort the date?

I am currently tracking online PPC keyword reports with Excel and need to know if there is a function that will find and match words and phrases and then add the columns that are queried for the matching words/phrases. I think an example is definately in order.
December PPC
Keyword Clicks Cost Revenue
large dogs 45 .18 $12.00
small dogs 35 .25 $15.00
January PPC
Keyword Clicks Cost Revenue
large dogs 12 .14 $8.25
small dogs 18 .18 $5.35
Now using the example above I need a function or maybe even a macro that will scan all "keywords" and find a match for each keyword each month, say large dogs, and then add the clicks, costs, and revenue columns and post them on a particular row or rows.
So when running the function it will find and match "large dogs" for each month, it will then add the clicks for all months with "large dogs" in it and then populate a column or row with the total along with the keyword "large dogs" next to it. Is there a function that will do this or maybe even a macro?

I've digitally signed a macro in Excel, where I'm sending mail from using outlook, but I can't seem to get Outlook to recognise the certificate in outlook, even though both programs have my name as a trusted publisher...... so still getting the "A program is automatically trying to send mail on your behalf" Pop up.
How to get outlook to recognise the certificate on the macro that I'm running from excel?
The main issue being it is sending roughly 50 separate emails, and to wait five seconds and manually have to click 'yes' for each one is not really desirable!

I have a table of data (say Column1 to Column 5) with multiple rows.
Column 1 to 4 will have the lookup values in multiple rows and Column 5 data should be picked up using vlookup or other lookup function.
I managed to somehow bring all these lookup values in (Column 1 to 4) in a single column in another sheet. I am now trying to use some lookup or other functions to match this single column and pick column 5 data in original sheet. Result i am expecting is lookup value in first column and next to it column 5 value.
It is basically a lookup wherein lookup value is spread over multiple rows and columns and result column is fixed. I tried using vlookup, but lookup value column and column number had to change every time when i moved from column1 to 4.

Excel offers many ways to use a key to lookup a value (VLookup, Index/Match, DGet, and the rest). What's the fastest way to perform a lookup of a small table of, say, 30 rows of key-value pairs? Theoretically, it would be most efficient to use a branch table (also known as a jump table). See the wikipedia article for branch tables: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branch_table. Does Excel/VBA have a way to create a branch table for such lookups?

I want to be able to lookup if anywhere in a cell contains a word from a list of words, and then provides an output.
Column G:
VAT payment
HMRC payment
Pay VAT
I have a table on the side that shows:
Column Y Column Z
VATHMRC
HMRC HMRC
ie. If anything in column G matches one of the words in Column Y, then output the Column Z. I have use a Vlookup that works for the first two, as VAT is the first thing, but dont know how to make it work if the key word is in the middle of the cell.

I have a workbook with 2 different types of sheet - 1 containing source data and the others 'collecting' data from the source sheet, depending on what the sheet is for.
For example, the data source contains different pets, their names, ages and their owners.
The other sheets are on a one-per-owner basis.
What I would like to do is use a LOOKUP / MATCH function to lookup the owner name typed in cell A1 of the output sheet and match it with the corresponding owner name(s) on the source sheet. I would then like it to return with each pet and append the results on the sheet accordingly - like below:
John Smith (in cell A1)
Pet - Name - Age
-------------------
Dog - Rover - 3
Goldfish - Tom - 1
Gerbil - Chewit - 4

I'm making my own gradebook (attached) and one of my sheets will list scores for each student in different assignments. I have one sheet which keeps track of all students and all assignments with other info. I would like to program cells in one sheet (the third in the attached file) to lookup a particular student's grade in a particular assignment. I figured trying a LOOKUP with an AND requirement might work but it keeps returning the message "could not find value".
My formula references the student's name and the assignment from the identifying cells so that it is easy to copy and paste. I wondered if it was this which resulted in the error, but doubt it.

I am trying to use lookup function to lookup for data in another table (we call it table A). Unfortunately, whenever the code is not in the table A, Excel will return the data from the previous row.... is there any possible way to prevent this... in another word, if the code does not exist in the table A, I want Excel to return 0 or some other figures.

here is an example....
(this is on a sheet called Summary)
----A--------B --------C------- D
1Names----At Bats----Hits----Batting Average
2Tom-------38--------31------.816
3Derek------19--------14------.737
4Joey-------40--------28------.700
5Chris-------40--------27------.675
6Chuck------37--------24------.649
Using the LARGE function, Excel has created a list based on batting averages(on a separate sheet called Line-up). It looks like this.....
---A----------B
1Names----Averages
2 -----------.737
3 -----------.700
4 -----------.675
5 -----------.816
6 -----------.649
The problem I am having is figuring a way for Excel to also bring the corresponding names (after using the LARGE function to create the line up list).

I have a very large spreadsheet of customer information(I call it the master spreadsheet). Each row contains only 3 things: Account number, product bought, Price
Later I receive the money from the customer for that product(the pay sheet) that contains the exact same thing in the same order: Account number, Product bought, Price paid.
What I'm trying to do is compare the two spreadsheets so that when i receive the pay sheet of cusomters who have paid with the amount it will deduct it from the master sheet.
So it should compare account numbers when it finds a match then it should subtract the amount paid (column C) from the master spreadheet price column(column C also).
sometimes customers don't pay the right price so it has to be a subtraction so I can see if it was over paied, underpaid etc.
Right now I'm still doing it manually combining the two documents sorting it by account number and checking for matches in column A (account number).

I need to place a lookup table in a work book and I'm not sure how to do it.Below is what I specifically need in my workbook.
c. The workbook will need a lookup table that will lookup the tuition, clothing
and entertainment figures depending on the selection of college, and will
ensure that only the colleges on the list are selectable. That is, the
worksheet will not allow the user to enter another college not in the list.
The lookup list must be on a worksheet by itself at the end of the workbook.

I have 3 Sheets named Paid, Rejected, and Reprocessed.
On the Paid and Rejected sheets I have 2 fields Customer # (Column A), and Amount (Column Q). (The customer # field has many duplicates but the amounts are never duplicates)
On the Reprocessed sheet I have all the rejected items (all fields) and also a field named Reprocessed. I need to use a formula that will check the Paid sheet for any items that have the same Customer # and Amount and return the amount
There are 8,216 rejected items and 45,047 paid items. Some items were originally rejected have been reprocessed and show under paid.
Any thoughts on which formula I should use?
