Vlookup Data And Return Results On Multiple Entries
Feb 16, 2009
So i have a spreadsheet that has a list of members and how many events they have attended. That is fine because i achieved this by doing a countif function on their account number. The spreadsheet has to sheets Events Attended TOTAl and List. In the list it has their name account number and what event they attended and what date. What i need is to have a function that will lookup their account number and return what event they attended but they might have been to 4 different events.
I have a total of 5 columns dedicated to Event attended so we can tell it to lookup first event and return result then have an if function in the next column to lookup event and if its returned in previous column move onto the next event attended.
I want vlookup to return results based on the *** and age of the person from tables in a separate sheet. For eg. if the person is "male" or "female" and if the person is "<=15", "16", or "17". I have been practicising with a formula that looks like this:
I have an excel file containing more than 70,000 lines (items and their corresponding orders) and in second file i have all the items listed. I want to find how using excel functions like vlookup i can return all the orders (from first file) against the items (in second file).
Attached a simple example of my problem. Please note that both tables are in different sheets of an file.
Worksheet 1: In column A I have a people's initials. In coumn B I have text boxes with miscellaneous text. (The same person could have multiple rows within this sheet.)
e.g. AAA blue BBB orange AAA round CCC smelly AAA elongated
Worksheet 2 I want to show: A2 = initials, B2 = first text box associated with that person, C2 = second text box (different row) associated with that person (if applicable), D2 = third text box (different row) associated with that person (if applicable), etc.
e.g. AAA blue round elongated BBB orange CCC smelly
I love using vlookup, but what do I do if the value I'm looking up is listed more than once in my array? The default is that it will use the first value found.
I have a spreadsheet with 1000's of commodities and for each commodity the volume is broken out by month. For example, here's the sheet where I'm pulling the data from:
So my vlookup for the RC020 for the december Actual Quantity will default to the 5867316. For for January (period 2), if I do the vlookup it will still take the 5867316 again since its first in line.
So my question is, how do I alter my formula in January so it will vlookup the 2nd RC020 and give me the "4668300"?
I would like to make a report for March that looks like this: Date SG Tank 3/15/12 1.002 2103 3/18/12 1.025 2044 3/18/12 1.036 2102
And the next month, make a report for April, then May... etc.
I tried to think of a way to do this using vlookup or index/match, but couldn't figure it out.I also tried using filters and then automating some kind of copy/paste, but there is an extra line between the heading and the data, so that the date column is filtered as text instead of date. The source data is not my spreadsheet, so that would be difficult to change.
I would like to do a lookup function, in which multiple results are returned.
i.e.
VLookup Result 1 Result 2 Result 3 Etc.
I know how to do it if there is only one answer but say I have a unique identifiers in which I want all the results in column B:B displayed one after another, say locations have numerous products sold/manufactured at it.
I have a table (table1) with material numbers which have a price . This value is time dependent i.e., a material 999 could have a price of $10 for 1/1/2008-1/15/2008 and $20 for 1/16/1008 - 1/31/2008.
A B C D 999 1/1/2008 1/15/2008 $10 999 1/15/2008 1/31/2008 $20 998 2/1/2008 - 2/25/2008 $15
I have another table (table2) in another sheet in the same workbook have a material and date.
A B C 999 1/10/2008 999 1/20/2008 998 2/15/2008
My requirement to take the material value and date in table2 and match it with table1 and get the value of column D in table 1 to column C of table2.
I have tried using vlookup but it only works for the first match and doesn't check for other values
Hi, I'm sure this will be an easy one for most of you. I need to extract data from an array for each time I have recorded a specific vehicle registration. I have used VLOOKUP but this only gives me one result. I need excel to display every enrty for the registration I am looking for. I have attached a sample file which should make more sence.
I'm using this formula in a roster scene to pick up people that call in sick and display their restored job in a different cell. The problem that I am having say for example employee one calls in sick at 2 pm and i assign that job in a corresponding cell to another, then employee 2 calls in sick for the 1pm shift (the call was made after i have already restored employee one a replacement), the formula automatically places the 1 pm in the cell above the 2pm.
Is there a way to stop it from changing the value once a value is entered in a corresponding cell?

I am using the VLOOKUP function to pull multiple columns of information from another sheet in the same workbook based on a name. The sheet it is pulling from is a query. I am looking up product names, and in the query there may be multiple results that the function can find.
VLOOKUP only returns the first result that is found. What I am trying to do is get it to dump all the results into a drop down list in one cell. If I attach a drop down to one of the columns of information I am retrieving, then I can select which of the entrys to display, right? I think this should work I just don't know how to go about setting it up to do it.
How would I set up a VLOOKUP formula that attaches a drop down list containing all the results that the function finds?
I have searched other postings but can’t seem to find the answer.
I was wondering if anyone had a solution on how to string multiple Vlookup results as a text string so that if I Vlookup “Pear” it will return “Red, Blue, Green” in adjacent cell i.e
A B 1 Fruit Colour 2 Pear Red 3 Orange Purple 4 Apple Green 5 Banana Yellow 6 Pear Blue 7 Pear Green 8 Banana Black 9 Orange Green 10 Apple Black
I am trying to create a workbook where I can log what work I have done in one spreadsheet and allocate an invoice number to it. In a separate spreadsheet within the same workbook I have created an invoice template. When I enter in the invoice number into the invoice template it's not collecting the correct information.
For example, if I want the details for invoice 10 to show in the invoice template, details for invoice 19 appear.
I have used this formula: =IFERROR(INDEX(ServiceRecord[[Invoice number]:[Date invoice issued]], SMALL(IF(ServiceRecord[[Invoice number]:[Date invoice issued]] ='Invoice TEMPLATE'!$F$8,ROW(ServiceRecord[Invoice number])),ROW(1:1)),2),"")
I am wanting to add new information as time goes on and also to be able to put in any invoice number into the invoice template to recall information as needed.
I've spent the last week trying to do the following, with little to no success....and I'm running out of hair to pull out!!
I have a worksheet (let's call it DATA) with the following column headers: * Site Name * Year Initiated * Status
plus a whole bunch of other columns of information.
On a separate worksheet (let's call it RESULTS) I'm trying to create a summary of all the Site Names where the Year Initiated = "2004" and the Status = "Active". There will be multiple occurences where this is true.
I then want to create further results where the year = 2005, 2006, etc., etc. I've been trying to use the INDEX function with variations of MATCH, SMALL, ROW, etc., etc., but so far, no luck.
Advanced Filtering is not an option as I need to do further manipulating of the results on the RESULTS worksheet.
On sheet "master" I have a list of goals in column A.
Each has been assigned to at least one person. Each person will have their own sheet that will capture the goals assigned to them. As an example, see Al's sheet.
I am trying to get Excel to look for all of the goals assigned to AL on the Master sheet and list them nicely onto AL's sheet without out blank rows. (and for each, respectively on their own sheet). I could do this with Pivot Tables if the data were displayed differently, but I have been told that I have to display the goal assignments as shown.
I could use "x"s instead of their names to mark the assignment and I could combine the "goal-achieved expectations" and "goal #s" columns if it helps. I am not supposed to use filters either.
Note: Of course, a goal or an assignment could change on the master sheet, but the assignment is more likely to change.
how this done for AL, I can go ahead and create the other sheets.
What I need is a script or formula with returns multiple results and puts them into one cell.
The Excel is used as a Project Managment Work Sheet for Resources, working on different Projects and their dedicated hours
The raw data table looks like this: Column A: Project Name (=AllProjectsLists) Column E: Resource Name (=MasterDataResources) Column P: values from 0 to 8 (hours)
First I need to check per row the Resource Name. If the Resource Name is a match, than I need to check if in column P the value is bigger than 0. The result goes into a different sheet per row, one result per Resource, but the multiple results should be shown in one cell.
So the result should be something like:
Resource name "Thomas" .... Projects working on: "Project 1, Project 5, Project 13, ..." (in one cell) Resource name "Mary" .... Projects working on: "Project 3, Project 9, Project 13, ..." (in one cell)
I tried with this one, but it only returns one vale per cell:
I'm attempting something new, a dropdown menu using vlookup to find data . If i use the simple example below, using data from B-D on 1 worksheet, where i want to find people by county:
A B C D Search by County Name County Town John Sussex Brighton Eric Yorkshire York Jim Cheshire Manchester Liz Sussex Hove Sarah Avon Bristol
I've created a dropdown menu on a second worksheet,A2, by county search, to return a persons name,county and town. The problem is if i select Sussex i will get 2 names who live in different towns within Sussex. I've created a simple vlookup which works fine, but because of Sussex having 2 results, i created a second vlookup for the second result to appear in the cell underneath.
The problem is that for the results that only have 1 result, the second vlookup returns a the same result as the first result, which i dont want.
Is there a way where multiple results will be shown if they exist, but for one result to appear if only one result exists?
I've got an If statement in Excel which features several VLookups - I need the IF statement to return differing results to 2 different cells, is this possible?
In plain English, I'm looking for something like
If(Vlookup(A2, B2:D5, 4, False), C6="y" And D7="ok", "False")
I would like to perform a search on only the worksheets listed in a worksheet titled table of contents. I would like to use multiple criteria for this search and send only the unique results to a worksheet titled results. Each worksheet listed in the table of contents has a cell address for each heading that I would like to extract data from the same column. The attached workbook example shows the data that I would like to collect when I search for cells that begin with "AB" and cells that begin with "CD". I collected this data by copy and pasting all the data from each worksheet into the results page and then applying filters and advanced filter to remove duplicates. This method does not work well for the original workbook as the data is quite extensive.
I have a column with lots of tube station names. I have a look up table with the tube station name, and the possible lines that pass by that tube station.
One tube station may be covered by more than one tube line.
I am looking for a formula that will output every tube line that caters that one tube station.
first question, what is the best way to organise the data in my look up table. Second, is a vlookup the best formula to achieve the output I want? i.e. Reflect how many tube lines cover each station
see table below: If the station name has only one tube line, Vlookup works fine. When the station, such as Canno Street, has two tube lines, Vlookup only picks up one tube line. If I duplicate Cannot street under the station name, the Vlookup picks only one tube line.
LOOK UP TABLE A1 - station name B1 Tube line name Cannon Street District
[Code].....
Is there a formula that will output the data of the second tube line name in column D1?
I have two separate worksheets, and I am trying to create a Vlookup or Index and Match formula. Here is the example:
Sheet 1 Cell A1= Employee ID: 123-D.
Sheet2 Vlookup A1 from Sheet 1, and match the first five characters to Column A, Column I and Column P. If a match, return name (e.g. John Doe) in Sheet 1, cell B1.
