The main sheet on my workbook has 3 fields- 'Type' , 'Data1', 'Result'
For a given row, a certain formula will be applied on 'Data1' to calculate 'Result'. The formula will vary based on the value of 'Type'.
So example if Type = A, Result= Data1*10
Type = B, Result= Data1*20.
The actual formulas are a lot more complicated.
I know this can be done using a nested if statement, but I would like to know if this can be done using Vlookup (where the formula is returned and it is applied on 'Data1')?
I don't mind any other solution as well as long as I don't need to write a long nested if statement!
I am using vlookup to return a number from sheet 3. I then need to use the number that vlookup returns in a formula on the worksheet, but since the cell containing the number it returns is actually a formula itself (=Sheet3!A5), the formula returns #value!. How do I get just a number/value that I can use in the next formula?
I'm trying to use vlookup to return multiple values for the same unique identifier. I've read a couple of examples within the forums, but I haven't been able to find anything I understand. I have employee ID's and these ID's have specific access associated with their ID's and each access is listed within a different row. Within a new spreadsheet I removed all duplicates of the employee ID so now I no longer have a one to one match between spreadsheets, so I would like to create a vlookup that will list all access associated with each employee ID. I have attached a sample of the data sheet I am working with.
On sheet1, I want to insert a Vlookup formula that will look in the other two sheets and will return a value (say the variable Y) if two lookup values are met and return a blank if they are not met.
Example. Sheet1. CellA1 = apple CellB1 = 2. I want to search Sheet2 and Sheet3 row by row and if Sheet2 has A and B cells which correspond(a row with "apple" in column A and "2" in column B, return the value Y. If not, return blank. Sheet2 and Sheet3 will never have duplicate values (and if they did, returning a Y would be fine).
I would like to find the value from Sheet2 Column1 in sheet1 Column1 and return value from Sheet1 Column2 and Column3 into Sheet2 Column2 and Column3
And if it doesn't find anything just return Not Found
The problem that a Vlookup is not working for me is because I want it to be the exact text from sheet2 column1 but in sheet1 column 1 it should not be exact as it might have some extra text as seen in the illustration above
I'm trying to create a rec report, ideally on one page, for multiple criteria. The situation is we get a report on our trade positions (investment stuff) from an outside service we use. We also have a report internally from what we've booked. We're looking to tie out are basic things like price, original par, revised par, trade date, counter-party banks, etc. I've consolidated data from both sources on one page (DATA) where all data points are lined up (say EXTERNAL is from rows 1-500, and INTERNAL is 510-1010). Now I need to create a front page showing the result of each tie-out. The lookup value will be a combination of the fund name + trade ticket number which would almost guarantee a unique ID (fund name XYZ, ticket number 12345 = XYZ12345)
Current tabs on spreadsheet: DATA, EXTERNAL, INTERNAL. I need to add a REC page
Question: What formula can I use to check on each and return TRUE/FALSE? The goal is to have about 8 columns on the REC, each for one of the tie-outs (let's use price as an example.). I know the basic VLOOKUP to return one value, but it appears in this case I will need VLOOKUP to check two matching values based on unique ID XZY12345, compare the price, and return TRUE if they match, FALSE if they don't
Here's something I saw from one of our spreadsheets that I think does the same to confirm counter-party, though I have no idea how to read this lengthy formula.
PROBLEM: B10 (see below) is a Vlookup and it is preventing C1 to return the name of the agency: AIB or MOODY - Instead I get TRUE or FALSE, No use to me.
I'm trying to use the VLOOKUP function to return value from a row below.
I have a large list of numbers (sheet Data) for the entire year with 8 different items per week, and I need to create a list for each week with group of 8 unique items as shown on "Week 21" sheet (I did it manually by copy and paste, highlights are just for the example, don't need to be at the original file). After the first 8th rows, it should start over until it gets to the last value on sheet "Week 21".
Basically, Column B on sheet "Week 21" should be statics, and once I change value on column A it should return values as in the example automatically.
I am trying to use vlookup to locate a cell in another work book. The identifier is in the same workbook as the vlookup formula however the table and column to look within is in another. The identifier will also show up in the other work book where the table resides.
I have this formula "=VLOOKUP(B5,$F$254:$G$258,2,FALSE)" I want it to return a "0" when cell B5 is not populated. How could I do that? Right now it returns "#N/A" and messes up my math down the sheet..
Been working on this problem for a while, I need to have a vlookup (or other function) return locations based off of a concatenate (for unique identifiers). Only issue is that the concatenate formula creates doubles which returns the same location for each vlookup. I have attached an example file.
Q1: In the range for the lookup I'm performing, the column with the possible match is the 2nd column. I've tested my function with this range, but it fails (range is $A$x:$K$x, with possible matches residing in column B). If I change the range so the 1st column has the desired data ($B$x:$K$x), it works. Can I modify the function to search using the 2nd column so I don't have to rearrange the columns in my worksheet?
Q2: Can I return an entire rold of data? If yes, how? I only know how to return one cell.
I have 2 columns of data: Column A is basically postcodes, but just the 1st part and Column B is a #2. If somewhere else on the sheet I type in the postcode IE. SW19 it will show besides it in my lookup the number 2. However if I type in a postcode that is not listed in Column A, I'd like to to return the value 1. I cannot figure this out. My code is:
I'm using VLOOKUP to search for results in another worksheet. What I need is 0 returned if the search fails. Currently I'm getting #N/A and that's causing my other formulas to fail.
I have a formula that needs to return blanks as blank and 0s as 0. The vlookup formula will return blanks as 0, or I can make it return a blank whenever it is zero (below), but some cells may have a 0 record that need to return 0s, not blank.
Right now I am missing a few records that are entered as "0". I have:
i have a customer work book for outstanding orders of which there are hunderds of rows with there name order number and the items that are outstanding
when i have progressed all my purchased orders i take all the items and run it throught my work book using vlookup to return who wanted what items if any
but what if there are more then one customer wanting the same item how can i get vlookup to know that and return the next match
i'm still very new at excel so can someone please help me
attached is a small test of my work book
if you see item 3182Y/1.0/BLK you can see it is wanted by both a.f switchgear and amg
I don't even know if using the IF statement is the right function, but anyway. I am using VLOOKUP to complete a supply list, but of course if the supply name isn't on the first spreadsheet then the result is NA. Instead I want it to return 0.
Is it possible to write a vlookup that will return a value of Yes if the value is true and a value of No if the value is false?
I have data in column A on sheet 1 so the lookup value starts in cell A2 and the table array is on sheet 2 in columns A and B so the column index is 2.
Here is my starting Vlookup Formula I. I need to alter it as I will state after the formula...
Code:
=Vlookup(A2,REPORT!$A$2:$D$10000,4,0)
Instead of returning the data from column D upon the first match I need the smallest available number to be returned. There will be more than one match and they will all have different numbers to return so I need the smallest return from D.
So in "REPORT" there is many duplicates in Columns A but they all have different values in Column D and I need to return the smallest number from Column of all of those duplicates in Column A.
When I use my vlookup function and hit enter, the no value shows up and I can still see the function syntax that I wrote in the cell. Here's a sample of what my sheet looks like:
Number Name Hazard Number 2
[Code]...
I need to know the value in the 'number 3' column is for the 'number' column. For example, I need '1302-76-7' inputted in a column adjacent to one of the first three columns. Another example: I need 'na - 07' inputted in the same row that has a 'number' of '1073'. This is how I want it to look:
Number Name Hazard Number3
[Code]...
When I type in the vlookup formula listed above, nothing happens. This is exactly how it looks in my spreadsheet, even when I click another cell or hit enter. Is my syntax wrong or have I just missed something?
how to modify the below v looup formula so it returns only the first word instead of the whole value
=Vlookup($A7,DATA,13,0)
I am doing a comparison of locations but one sheet has just the Location, the other data is formated as Location-Address
I would just like to return the location as i have an IF formula which checks if both Match and because of this is returning false
Also ii anther part of my work book i am doing a look up on division, at present it is returning the Division name, However i would prefer it to just return the first 3 or 4 Initials of the look up
for example if the division called err.. Apples Pears Plums Ltd i would like to return APP if it were Apples Pears Plums Bananas Limited i would like return value to be APPB
I'm trying to vlookup age in column A, then find the closest match of that row, then return the top row's column value of that closes match(largest value less than or equal to). looking for a formula to accomplish this.
For example, for age of 1month, I have a value of 7.5. So, I'd like to return: "5th"

I am trying to create a macro and I need it to return the row # based on a vlookup of a date and not 100% sure how to do that.. Hoping to get a little assistance.
I am looking up a date in column A, and need it to return the row #, then I can do the rest of the macro I need. The date I need to look up varies, and is based on the following function I have in a cell elsewhere, but if there is an easier way in vba to write i'm open:
=IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY())=2,TODAY()-3,TODAY()-1) which basically says if it's monday lookup the date from 3 days ago (friday), otherwise look up yesterday's date. So today it returns 6/8/09 and I need to find the row that has 6/8/09 as the value in column A.
Now the dates in column a, are all formulas that say previous row's date + 1, so the only row that has the actual date in it is the very first one, then we just add a day. Not sure if that matters, but figured I'd give all info.
When I look at the formulas in B17 by clicking on the name of the fuction and then clicking on the function button, the roundup function arguments shows 0.071. Also the vlookup function arguments shows 0.071. Yet I get the #n/a as the result from the vlookup in B17.
I have tried coercing the formula by addin +0 like =VLOOKUP(ROUNDUP(B15,3)+0,$N$2:$O$91,2,FALSE)
I have also tired *0 like =VLOOKUP(ROUNDUP(B15,3)*0,$N$2:$O$91,2,FALSE)
Here is a kicker... When I replace B14 with 0.9 or 0.7 or 0.6, the formula works. but I get a #N/A on 0.5.
