I am having trouble doing a VLOOKUP, whereby I have a column of staff that are frequently detached from the workplace (See extract sample). One member of staff could be away 4 times in a year and I need to place the most relevant detached date (which would be 2 months ago and 4 months from today) into another table. This other table would then show all members of staff in alphabetical order with just one detached and return date. If the date falls out of the above parameters (6 month window), nothing would be displayed.
I've been tying to get the vlookup function to not stop when it finds the 1st occurence and actually find all the occurences in that collumn and then sum them together, can this be done? Or by using a different function? Example......
So when vlookup looks for blue it should return 5 which is sum of 1 + 4 rather than stop when it finds 1.
how many dates appear in a column. I have a spreadsheet wherein when a name is encoded in column A, the date is automatically logged in column B. Now, i need to count how many of those dates occurred in column B.
For the month of May - how many 1 May 2007, 2 May 2007...an so on.
After that - i need to match those dates to the name of the encoder and a another encoded status. It's like - 1 May 2007+john+approved = 1 occurence. I need to count them separately and combined.
I have a table with three columns. I'm building a calendar on a separate worksheet and am looking up the "value" based on a calendar date. So if a date falls within any of the ranges, I'd like to return the value in column C. For example, if the date is 02/07/12, I'd like for the result to be value 1, or if the date is 04/17/12, then I would like the result to be value 3. I've used a nested vlookup, but all that give me is the value when either the start or end dates match, but I can't get a value when the date falls within the range. If the dates were consecutive, I would simply use vlookup/TRUE, but the dates are not consecutive.
I’m looking for a formula that will count the number of occurrences of “YES” in column A between a specific date range (column B) BUT only if the it's categorized as "LAB" (column C).
Up until now I’ve jerry rigged the spread sheet to do it with various filters, if, and countif formulas but I’m looking for something that will fit in one cell and lower the overall size of the file.
To make it even more complicated I’d like to feed the formula the date range information from another editable cell so that it can basically be queried for whatever dates my boss is concerned about at that second.
i have a spreadsheet that contains a column for each day and i need to input the count from another tab for certain data...example as follows:
column A shows types of fruit - apples, bananas or oranges, row 1 contains the date (todays date, weekdays only) - the count of each fruit needs to be entered in rows 2 (apples), 3 (bananas) & 4 (oranges) for each fruit for each date
i copy and paste a daily report into a new tab in this workbook -Raw Data (the data is always in the same format and the info i need is in column J...."555" = apples, "666" = bananas & 777" = oranges)
i have used the below formula which works:
apples =COUNTIF('Raw Data'!$J$5:$J$65536,"555") etc
however the daily report that is pasted into the Raw Data tab only relates to the current day (date is present in this tab in A1)...how do i get each daily column to only display a count if the date in row 1 matches the date in Raw Data tab A1?
also how do i keep the previous days' data to keep what the count was for that day (instead of counting the current count of the new data only relevent for today)?
Say in L4 on form test i want to look for the value of A4 in Drill data range a2 to z1000 and retun a concatenated string of something like "sav 407 : 08-may to 11-may"
I have a spreadsheet that records the date, specific sporting activities and cash award for participation in a round robin sporting event that was held over 52 weekends. I'm trying to lookup the cash award value of each event the person participated in by using a date range within the vlookup formula.
Each participant has their own spreadsheet which they are able to access via server, and each spreadsheet looks a bit like this:
-Column A contains the date of an event in which the person participated -Column B contains a category number related to the type of event eg marathon = 12, hurdles = 15, relay = 18 etc. This info is manual input -Column C contains the amount the person will be awarded by simply participating in the event. This is a lookup value and varies depending on the date the person participated, so I'm trying to incorporate date ranges and 'if' formulas into the vlookup
I'm from Australia so my dates might be backwards...
Spreadsheet:
A B C 1 02/01/13 15 (supposed to be $10)
The formula should read a bit like this:
if (date at A1 is within date range 1st Jan 2013 and 31st March 2013, lookup B1 in table 1 column 2), if (date at A1 is within 1st Apr 2013 and 30th Jun 2013, lookup B1 in table 2 column 2)...etc for each quarter
I want to create a certification only list on a separate tab of training that has been completed where a certification has been issued (as indicated by a "Y" in the "Certification?" column on the training tracking tab) and then populate from some of the fields vs. all of the fields.
What I have now, only pulls the first occurence, not all occurences. I saw that I could have identified the multiple columns that needed to be populated, but it didn't work either, so I'm fine putting a separate vlookup in each column.
I am trying to create a formula which looks in 1 cell to determine 'IF' it states either "BUTT CUT" or "DIE CUT" and then does a VLOOKUP in a table array for each which ever column relates to asnwer to 'IF statement.
This is as far as I have got but even this won't work:
I'm putting together a database in Excel and there is a particular item that I am having trouble with. I need to count the frequency of occurences in between events over a series of cells.
This:
ABBBAABBAB
Needs to be tracked like this:
ABABAB132211
Basically I need to write it so that when A occurs it counts how many times B occurs immediately after, until the next A. Once that is figured out I should be ok counting double A occurences.
Column A - has data but there are data which occur more than once then it will be counted to column C
Reason is I need to delete the data with several occurence at column A so when I see the count at column C then I can be aware how many times the data at Column A occurs so I can delete it by filtering the data.
I have a list and the list contains the same string multiple times. I am trying to take that list and print it in column D and then list in column E the number of times that string appears in column A. S for example I would like the list to output
Col A | Col B| ....| Col D | Col E | String1__________String1 3 String1__________String2 1 String1__________String3 2 String2 String3 String3
I have a list with several stocks tickers and the respective quantities and prices on three columns: example below. I wanted a formula to list all different occurrences of each stock only once. Later on I would consolidate all trades.
stock / price / quant / expected list A / 10 / 1000 / A B / 20 / -2000 / B C / 25 / 500 / C D / 30 / 2000 / D E / 15 / -2000 / E B / 20.5 / 1500 A / 10.2 / 1200 D / 29 / -500 C / 25 / 800 E / 16 / 2000
I am using a code to validate that a person enters only an email address in a certain cell. I would like to confirm that the address has only two occurences of ".", and of course one occurence of "@". What would be the easiet method to do this.
I'm trying to formulate something that will count how many times say 5 comes up in a =randbetween(1,20) function. Of course if I do =(IF(A1=5,1,"") it will count it, but once the randbetween recalculates it will reset. Is there any way to do this so it keeps a cumulative count?
I have been given a spreadsheet to calculate. I think the data is very badly laid out but I cant change it. I have attached a sample from it. The original has 1000 people (accross row 1 in multiple sheets) and has approx 200 rows. I only have to calculate sheets individually.
I need to count all occurences in the row for; Current Level = 1 and Training Requirement = 1 ( Cell B4) Current Level = 1 and Training Requirement = 2 (Cell C4) etc for all Currant Level 1-4 and Training Requirement 1-3.
I have been looking over how to use Sumproduct but I don@t see how to use it here.
I have and interesting delimma and I have been spending way too much time trying to figure this out.
I have a value in column B "Agreement". I have data in column C which could be just about anything. I need to be able to find "Agreement" copy the value immediately above it and paste it next to the value in column C.
You see this gets difficult for me, because there are many spaces in the spreadsheet and there may or may not be a value in C.
Here is an Example: I need for the value above "Agreement" to bel placed in the same column where there is a value in C? Clear as mud. I need this for every occurence of "Agreement" in this column. There are many occurences of "Agreement"
how to write a search and replace macro, but instead of writing:
Cells.Replace "OldText", "NewText"
how to independently read this "search" text into a string (hopefully a string that can handle 'more' than 255 characters per cell, even in Excel 2000) then replacing that search text("OldText") with ("NewText") step-by-step?
I'd like to evaluate a series of columns where a value greater than 1 would return all matches in another worksheet. I can't seem to use LOOKUP or Pivot Tables effectively to do this.
For example Task Week1 Week2 Week3 task1 5 8 task2 6 10 task3 5
I'd like to create a view that would show Week1 having one task (task1) that will take 5 (hours). Week2 should show task1 and task2, Week3 should show task2 and task3
I am trying to get this code to loop through a dynamic range on one sheet and copy all occurences of a name (John Doe) to be copied into another sheet in a single column, but a new row for each occurence of the name.
I believe the problem is in looping the findnext statement,
Sub find_actor()
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+A
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Dim random As Range Dim connector As Range Dim paste_connector As Range
I have tried to compose a formula that looks at the value in cell A1 and compares it against the number of occurrences in the range of column D. I can do this:
Date entered Name Date of Birth (DOB) Occurrences of Name + DOB this Month Occurrences of Name + DOB within last 3 Months Occurrences of Name + DOB within last 6 Months
I can manage the occurrences this month but haven't a clue how to calculate the 3 and 6 months ones. I have attached a sheet.
I need to know what driver led a given lap of a given race (Col. G). Attached is my attempt. Something to consider is I need a formula that can be pasted down Column G as from track to track, from race to race the # of laps will not be the same. The number of drivers that led a given race will not be the same.
I have an array formula in cells of Column G for the # of laps in a given race (i.e. if a race was 100 laps it would go from G3-G100). I ran it down to 500 just to cover myself.
…it kinda works, but for some reason when it comes to lap 251 it gives me a #N/A error. It gives me the correct driver for lap 250 & 252 and all other laps but not lap 251. Also, a minor inconvenience is that I have to put a space after the first number & if at all possible I don’t want to have to do that.
I would love a macro where all I need to do is paste Column A, press a command button, & the macro does everything for me but that’s probably asking a lot. I know how to record a macro but don’t know anything about VB.
Column D & F have to be formatted as text. It has to be text format or when I cut Column B to Column D it changes some numbers to date (i.e. 1-2 becomes January 2nd).
I have been using the following but hope there is something a little better to assure that all occurances of a particular command bar button is removed:
i am trying to get totals from data and am using 2 different times to count from (eg. i am trying to find how many cells contain times in the 6:00 am to 2:30 pm range in the same column...I can't seem to be able to count these correct.
