Vlookup: Function That Will Search For The Value Of The Vehicle
Nov 26, 2008
I have a lookup table (see attached file) which holds the min & max value for a vehicle, the min & max size of the engine and the premium. I want a function that will search for the value of the vehicle (e.g. 100000 in cell H5) within the min value and max value columns as well as the engine size (e.g. 2000 in cell H6) in the min size & max size columns return the premium from the associated premium (which should be 13,200).
Third, multiply the numbers and the numerical values of the letters by their assigned weight factor, and sum the resulting products. Divide the sum of the products by 11. The remainder is the calculated check digit. If the remainder is 10, the calculated check digit is the letter X.
Finally, if the calculated check digit did match the 9th digit of the VIN entered by a user, the VIN passed the checksum test. It failed the checksum test otherwise.
use the VLOOKUP function when the column I need to search is not column A?
I have a Workbook with two worksheets in it and in Sheet 1 I have 10 columns of various text and numbers. In cell A1 of sheet 2 I will fill with a certain code that appears in column E in Sheet 1. The result I would be looking for should come from Column A in Sheet 1. I thought that the following would work copied into B1 of Sheet 2 but it doesn't appear to - =VLOOKUP($A1,'Sheet 1'!E$1:$E$481,1,FALSE).
What i have so far is: -3 Sheets (Sheet1 - Search, Sheet2 - Data, Sheet3 - Result) -Sheet1 has a userform ready to link up - this opens up when workbook and worksheet is activated. -Sheet2 has some example data to search - the search is for column 1 (see attachment) -Sheet3 has a template ready for the data to be pasted to.
I would like the search result is column 1 to copy the data from columns 1 to 7 to sheet3.
I want the template/layout to remain after the pasting of results. (everything protected from editing, if possible).
Once finished (ie go back to sheet1, i want the data from sheet3 to be cleared.)
Using the search macro code below, could someone please help to add in more codes what I'm currently using, and also where to insert it. The Search function works well for what I need and it helps me to locate data. When using the search function somehow it search all sheets within the workbook but I only want it to search an array of sheets when using this macro that is needed to complete the task for what I'm after.
Macro Public Sub FindText() 'Run from standard module, like: Module1.
Dim ws As Worksheet, Found As Range, rngNm As String Dim myText As String, FirstAddress As String, thisLoc As String Dim AddressStr As String, foundNum As Integer
myText = InputBox("Enter the text that you want to search for:", "Start Search!")
I'm from Bavaria, Germany. Right now, I am doing an internship for my studies. my problem: I need a search procedure which shows an Input Box where you can enter a word to search for. It should work like the original Excel search (Ctrl-F), but with a simpler design, like with my own Text "Enter your Query" and a Button "Submit Query" / "Quit search". Is there the possibility to Highlight the Search Target? The problem hereby is that this highlighting should not be permanent. That means the user sees the target for which he searched for, the cell highlighted in a different color, etc. But as soon as the user clicks onto another cell, etc., the highlighting vanishes. If there is no fitting match, there should be a MessageBox like "Sorry the Target xyz cannot be found"
Essentially the other cells in that row (G10:R10) all contain "Same", however for some reason it is identifying this as FALSE and putting in the data from the 'Aug 09 Matrix' sheet.
Basically, i want to work out the age of a large list of vehicles based on its uk registration plate number but have so far been completely out of luck,
On the attached excel sheet I have a 5 week period, and two overall pages (one for the drivers, one for the trucks). My question is this. Drivers may drive different vehicles throughout the week, how, on the Truck Overall page do I calculate the formula so it deciphers each truck and puts the correct information into the right boxes?
I am reposting this as my previous post was deleted.. i dont know the real reason for the same...
The raw data in the attachment contains:
•C1 to AI1 refers to vehicle numbers. •Column A refers to Shift Time •Column B refers to Number of vehicles required in that particulars Shift time
The output:
•As you can see in the Sheet “Output Required”, fields marked in the color “light green” are manually allocated vehicles numbers available and required according to shift time
•The logic used behind allocation is the same vehicle should not be used before or after within the span of 3 hrs, the gap between the vehicle usage before and after should be minimum 3 hrs. And the maximum time gap can be any value.
•Vehicle usage can be maximum (ie. You can use the same vehicle by rotating within 24 hrs but keeping in mind that it is not used before 3 hrs).
• all the available vehicles must be used before the same used vehicle is used in the new shift... ie. You should utilize all the vehicles before one is duplicated
I have an 'Update' Module that search the value of the Userform1.txt_sc.Value in Column B, but I want to search to 2 criteria, how can i amend the below code to search for 2 criteria ( userform1.txt_sc.value & userform1.txt_linenum.value )
Whenever or not I should use VBA or ordinary formulas in Excel in order to do Vehicle Routing With Two-Dimensional Loading Constraints case. What I need is when I have coordinates of four bottom-right corners:
X Y 24 0 30 0 10 24 8 38
2L-CVRP, what I want to know is: In reality I have set of 200 coordinates (x,y) and I need to search for lowest y (its (24,0) and (30,0)) then I choose one with maximum x ((30,0) in this case). Then if for some reason item cannot be packed there, then I shall go to next lowest y, which is 24 giving coordinate (10,24), if I cannot use this corner, I search for next lowest y with as high x as possible, etc. BTW I use Evolver in order to find satisfying solution.
Is this is just an example, but the logic should hold true. Data for example is in A1:C5. I want to use a SUMIFS statement that will look at type of Vehicle and Dates. So for the example in cell D1 (I wanted to add only Cars sold between May 1-2), but my current equation = 0, where I am expecting 20
I'm looking for a function which will check if the cell value is a valid UK registration number plate format.
True if it is, False if it isn't.
I've tried myself and had a look around but am unable to find a solution to my problem.
If also possible, if false, to make to necessary amendments to make it a valid format...ie If some lower case values, make them upper case, if there is a space entered, remove it, if a O is entered instead of a 0, correct it and show the corrected value when the function is run. For all that it can't do that with, then leave as False.
I understand the second part may not be possible, just identifying whether or not the value is a valid format. I have something similar which does this for UK postcodes, but am hitting a brick wall trying to do the same for UK registration number plates.
let me start by saying that I know an example workbook would be useful here, but the part I'm struggling with is the [managementroster.xlsm] file, and there is A. no way I can release it to the internets and B. its so huge/complicated I couldn't even begin to reproduce a portion of it, scrubbed of data, and hope to maintain its functionality in a meaningful manner.
[Code]....
This formula checks a staff number on this spreadsheet, and then goes and looks at the staff number on the roster. Once found, it returns that staff members roster, but changes any manager codes in the MRC list to Mgr, and changes all other roster codes to Free.
I now need this formula, before altering roster codes to Mgr or Free, to only return codes that are a match for another table (or after really. I don't particularly care, so long as only codes are shown that match data from another table). I think an index/match function would do the trick, but this forumula is already at the edge of my excel ability, nesting another function within it is completey beyond me. The relevant cells for the index/match function would be:
This first Match function targets the column. $E3 is the date required, $BA$1:$DN$1 is the range the dates are entered in Match: Lookup value = $E3 Lookup array = '[ManagementRoster.xlsm]Vacancies!'$BA$1:$DN$1 match type = 0
This second Match function targets the row. $A$4 is the department name, $B$434:$B$452 is the range where all departments are entered
Match: Lookup value = $A$4 Lookup Array = '[ManagementRoster.xlsm]Vacancies!'$B$434:$B$452 match type = 0
Index: array = $BA$434:$DN$452
So I think my final function is
[Code] .....
But I have absolutely NO idea where it would fit within my first formula, or how to code it so that my original formula only reproduces results that are found in both sheets, or anything.
I am working on a spread sheet that searches for an employee's clock number, pulls the data from a particular week and displays it all on one page. I have 6 different tables of different stats, 4 weeks each and I would like to pull all of this data together. I have successfully created a page that when you plug in an employee's number, all of thier stats apear from all 6 data sets for the last 4 weeks. I do this by using ....
I need to do a vlookup on C1 in range A1:B1 that will return B1 if C1 contains the string in A1. I've tried using the TRUE variable in the vlookup formula which does not require an exact match. This works for about 80% of my data but is not 100% accurate. Of course I've got a long list of data ... not just the 3 cells.
I have a few tables on a worksheet, and to search these tables i am using a VLOOKUP, however i want to be able to search for other than just the one field! but still pull up all of the data. If i were to do the same tables in access i would be able to query all fields and then recieve an output of those that match, is there any way to do this in excel
Note I am only into basic VB. Other question i have is, on a VLOOKUP you only return the one record, is there anyway of searching a table of data and returning all records that hold that value in a specific field, like applying a filter to them. or am i just being extrememly dumb and missing something simple?
The attached wb will be used to schedule 10 machines. I have a dispatch ws that will have the machine # in column A, job/lot/ assy in column B, and load hrs in column C. there is a ws for each machine number. I want the worksheets for each machine to look in the dispatch ws, and return the info from B and C that has it's number in A for every occurence, currently it will return the 1st occurrence only.
If I have a store number (say 1234) and I am trying to search for something which contains 1234 (i.e. the whole string of ABCD1234, ABCD1235, ABCD1236 etc) is it possible to do this in one VLOOKUP formula?
One way of doing it would be to VLOOKUP("ABCD"&"1234",....) but I would rather do it the other way around, to prevent the formula from not working.
I get new worksheets on a regular basis which are of the same format (same columns with headers) and I have to perform both vlookups and sumifs on them. Their are about 12 different tabs I perform the vlookup on based a vendor name in A2 and its corresponding tab. I am tired of typing the same thing over and over again.
What I'd like to write is a Control Panel with all the equations so I can just copy/paste them in when I get a new sheet.
How can I write a vlookup which would search for the value which is one cell to the right of where I put the formula in?
Similar to: =vlookup(current cell over one, 'vendor1sheet'!A:C,3,0).
I would then want to copy it down the worksheet. Currently type in column E everytime I get a new sheet: =VLOOKUP(F2,'Vendor1'!A:C,3,0)
The catch
Column A has the vendor name, there are about 12 vendors, each with a different tab with related data which I am searching through.
Ultimately, I'd like to have an equation that would do the vlookup (and sumif) as described above and also use the vendor name in column A to look on a particular tab.
Something like: =vlookup(one cell to the right,'VendorTabFromVendorNameInColumnA'!A:C,3,0)
I was going to use nested if statements on a control panel sheet with a column for the vendor name and a column for the vlookupformula and than paste a single formula all the way down column E:
In column E, every row: If(A2=vendor1, 'controlpanel'!vendor1equation), if(A2=vendor2, 'controlpanel'!vendor2equation), etc.
Again, the vlookups would all check for one cell to the right of where this nested if statement was (located in column E, looking in F).
1. can i limit vlookup on sheet2 to search only a certain range of cells on a sheet1.
example, I want vlookup to look in sheet1, colum A - Y but only look between rows 1 and 100
2. If 1 can be done, and i happen to add a row in worksheet1 (making it 101 rows vice 100) will the vlookup code on sheet2 include that 101st row or do i have to redo the range manualy.
I have an XLS sheet filled with every zip code in the US... the zips are in multiple columns adjacent to columns with the corresponding county names.
Unfortunately, the there are up to EIGHTEEN columns of zip codes in each row describing the counties... not one zip per row. I'm assuming this was done to save space.
In another sheet, I have list of client zip codes and need to VLOOKUP the corresponding county from the first sheet. I'm certain I'm not using VLOOKUP right...I'm getting #N/A every time.
Is this because it's only checking the first column of zip codes? I need it to check all 18 columns of course... there are no repeated zips.
How do I do this without rebuilding the full zip database page?
I am trying to use the vlookup function together with an offset function but i am not getting it to work properly.
The situation is as follows:
I have a column E in which i use the vlookup function to find its corresponding value in B which in turn refers to a named range. However, the figure i want the function to return is 2 columns to the right and 2 rows above the value which the vlookup funtion finds in the first column.
I have though of using the offset function, but i cannot figure out how to make this work.
I want to use vlookup up function to search for a specific data set. when it finds it i want it to look 2 columns over and add the value then continue to search for the specific data set again in the range provided in the vlookup, when it finds another matching the criteria look 2 columns over and add that cell value to the previous count.
keep a running total until it has looked through the whole sheet. here is an example of the vlookup i am using, it is not suming because thats where im stuck. also a quick data set to picture what i am talking about. In the data set in plain terms i want to look for the line name and add the qty on that line into a chart.
In the attached sheet I am trying to use the formula below but am getting a #NA error. I have narrowed the problem down to the use of the SEARCH and LEFT functions that I am using to determine the lookup value of the VLOOKUP formula.
what I am doing wrong? If I substitute the SEARCH and LEFT function with the number "14" it works just fine. You can find examples of both in cells B29 and C29 on the rename tab.
I have a sheet with Names in it. I need to look those names up and find which org they belong to. The problem is the the names have many characters after them, and many names belong to a few orgs, with a the rest belonging to many orgs. (See below)
I have been trying to get a Vlookup to work, but since it can't go left, it won't look up the orgs that don't own at least three names. And I can't get the search to work on the names.
I have a column of text strings in a2.a??? this is my data. Each text string has a persons name somewhere in it with other text around it.
In column c2.c??? i have text names of people names im searching for. eg. bob,jane,harry
what would be a pratical use of the vlookup function to return the name in column b2.b??? if the name from C was located in the string in A this is a non case sensertive requirement.
