I have a VLOOKUP formula which accesses work time per job number. I want the formula to return the exact amount of time per job - however, as the numbers hit zero, the formula returns invalid results that seem to be based on the nearest time to the zero.
View 2 RepliesWhen an exact match to the lookup value is not found, the function goes to the highest value that is less than the lookup value.
What do I do if I want to return the closest value, but not less than the lookup value?
For exampe, in my screenshot, if my lookup value is 6 horsepower, I want to return the efficiency for the next highest value (if no exact match) for 7.5 HP. Function would return 89.5

I'm trying to lookup XYZ plc in an array where the company names in col A are like XYZ plc (UK, London), ABC plc (Boston US) and I want the lookup to return a date in column 3. I've tried VLOOKUP(B2, LEN(LPR), 3, FALSE) where B2 is the cell holding XYZ plc and LPR is my array and it's not working.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have the following formula which, if text is in A1, will lookup from a list of worker's comp codes to locate the code in A2 and return the wording for that
=IF(ISTEXT(A$1),VLOOKUP(A$2,Codes!$B$3:$C$720,2),"")
However, if there is not an exact match to the code in A2, it returns the wording for the next closest code.
Is there a way to make it so that it will only return the wording for the exact match and return "invalid code" if the number in A2 is not found on the list on the "Codes" sheet?

I have two sheets of data , sheet A and Sheet B.
Sheet B contains a column called "Name" and for each name, and for each name there are corresponding numbers. In sheet A, I have a "list of interest" in column A. What i want to do look through the data in sheetB to find a match from the list of interest and return the corresponding letters, located in column A.
I have filled out the first two rows of results that should be returned as an example.
One idea i had was to put a vlookup formula in each column result 1 to result 6 so i can catch all 6 "Serves" columns from column B, but there may be duplicates in the serve columns and vlookup only reports the first match.
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
but it will only return a.f switchgear
I'm using this formula (thanks to dafan & HalfAce [url]
=IF(VLOOKUP($A177,$A$736:$C$787,3,FALSE)=0,"",VLOOKUP($A177,$A$736:$I$787,3,FALSE))
to return the value located in the 3rd column of the range when the value in the 1st column of the range matches the data in A177.
However, there isn't a match for the data in A178 in the range, so the formula returns "#N/A". I would like the cell containing the formula to remain blank in those instances.
I am very new withe macro I recieve every day a CSV file from our supplier withe a list of the products that got updated withe new price, stock count, product ID etc.
I have my own worksheet with the product ID that we use, and I want to finde the exact match to my product ID in that CSV file and delete all other that don't match.
But i need them get deletede by rows thos product ID that dosen't match to my workbook.
I tried with this, so it could set an X in front of my match then i could filter and copy it to my workbook but it dosen't work:
Because the same product ID is sometime in 100 rows and the X come only in front of one of them.
=IF(ISNA(MATCH(Q2:Q1000;G$2:G$1000;0));"";"X")
so with some macro. I need to have every row deleted that don't match to my list of product ID.
I'm trying to create a rec report, ideally on one page, for multiple criteria. The situation is we get a report on our trade positions (investment stuff) from an outside service we use. We also have a report internally from what we've booked. We're looking to tie out are basic things like price, original par, revised par, trade date, counter-party banks, etc. I've consolidated data from both sources on one page (DATA) where all data points are lined up (say EXTERNAL is from rows 1-500, and INTERNAL is 510-1010). Now I need to create a front page showing the result of each tie-out. The lookup value will be a combination of the fund name + trade ticket number which would almost guarantee a unique ID (fund name XYZ, ticket number 12345 = XYZ12345)
Current tabs on spreadsheet: DATA, EXTERNAL, INTERNAL. I need to add a REC page
Question: What formula can I use to check on each and return TRUE/FALSE? The goal is to have about 8 columns on the REC, each for one of the tie-outs (let's use price as an example.). I know the basic VLOOKUP to return one value, but it appears in this case I will need VLOOKUP to check two matching values based on unique ID XZY12345, compare the price, and return TRUE if they match, FALSE if they don't
Here's something I saw from one of our spreadsheets that I think does the same to confirm counter-party, though I have no idea how to read this lengthy formula.
=EXACT(VLOOKUP(IF(Q2="COMPANY",R2,Q2),FUNDS!$M$1:$N$400,2,FALSE),
INDEX(PENDING!$G$4:$G$3218,MATCH(CP!C2,PENDING!$N$4:$N$3218,0)))
I have encountered a situation where I need to essentially accomplish a reverse Vlookup (using index match) and return multiple values.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have one condition which needs to be matched. This code I wrote can find the first instance and then offset data to another worksheet accordingly.
My question is whether than can be done for every other instance that appears on my sourcesheet 'Invoicing'. I have considered putting a loop in, but this will only find the first instance over and over again which is pointless.
In one sheet I have customer_code in one sheet (Customer_code) and this is multiple like
C00002604,C00002604,C00002604 and in another sheet (Customer_code_details)
I have the same code but here the count us much more than earlier sheet (Customer_code). if Customer code exists the same code 3 times the same code exists also in sheet (Customer_code_details) for 5 times.
In customer_code sheet I have 8724 data but Customer_code_details sheet I have 8840 data.
I am normally sorted the two columns and checking t manually.
Is there any way to do vlookup with count?
I have written a basic search which pastes the results on to another sheet.It works, but i have a small issue with it.If I search for "A" it will give me all the results for "A" but it will also give me any result with a combination with "A" in it, eg. BA or BBA etc I need to have results based on the exact search. What do I need to do to make my search result and exact result?

I looked for this - but no luck and the tips did not answer it either
(in fact I have used an example but it does not work - in my case ).
I am using H lookup but need to find the exact match.
I know that you can use false on a Vlookup to get an exact match but it does not appear to be working with Hlookup.
I attach an example and hope someone can enlighten me...
I have text values in 2 different columns A and B. I can use the conditional formula to find and highlight duplicates but only if they are an exact match. How do I modify if they are not exact match but for example start with the same 3-4 text values?

The search is in a single column.

I'm trying to use the MATCH function. I want to locate an exact name. I used the formula:
=MATCH(A6,A3:A10,0). This is the name cell I want to retrieve, the column in which the information is found, and 0 for the exact match. The return answer I get is 4.
How do i find an exact match in a range (Text exactly the same just like the exact function)
=MATCH(A1,B1:B10,0) This will match the rad and Rad to be the same but what i want is the exact match
I know the exact function does not take an range so how can i amend to take this to account?
Something like =Exact(A1,B1:B10)
I'm looking for help in tweaking existing code contributed by acw on ozgrid. The code he supplied compares 2 worksheets, it goes through the first sheet than highlights cells as it finds matches on sheet 2. However I also need it to find exact matches. For example if the numer it is searching for is 15 it must only find 15 not 01500, 015, 150 etc. Here is the post which contains the code and a sample workbook

I am having a slight VBA issue I need a little help with. I have created a catalog of books in Column A. As each new letter is reached there is a new heading. For example:
Cell A1 : A
Cell A2 : Book beginning with A #1
Cell A2 : Book beginning with A #2
Cell A3 : Book beginning with A #3
Cell A4: B
Cell A5 : Book beginning with B #1
Cell A6 : Book beginning with B #2
Cell A7 : Book beginning with B #3
Cell A8 : C
etc.
What I am looking to do is create a macro for each letter so that if I went to the "B" macro it would make the active cell A4. However the list of books will grow as my library does, so the macros have to find the letter rather than go to a predefined cell.
The code I have so far is (this example is for the letter B):
Sub B()
Columns("A:A").Select
Selection.Find(What:="B", After:=ActiveCell, _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False, _
SearchFormat:=False).Activate
ActiveCell.Select
End Sub
However this code finds the first time the letter B is used in a word, not the cell that only has the letter B in it. Also I need to make sure that if the active cell when the macro is run is below the letter that it needs to find that it will still find it. I'm not sure if my current code would do that or not.
I am trying show an exact match of data between two worksheets, but I need the match function to look up 2 columns - i.e. reference number AND order number between two different worksheets.
In the example attached, I am able to find the match of one column only (order number)
I have the following formula in a cell that gives me a sum of items matching certain criteria.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIn the four rows of text below I'm trying to match each gas stick to its corresponding gasline.
I think I can count over to "GAS STICK" and get the number. <15> From that point I can count over to "," (comma) and get that number. <26> So the gas stick will be between the first number and one less than the second number. <GAS STICK 1>
I need completing this code to place a the line or stick number in a cell B of the same row. Column A would have the description and column B of the same row would either be "1" or "11" respectively. Column C would be the shortened description (GAS STICK 1).
1] "HUNGA, DUNGA, GAS STICK 1, THINGY"

This is the script I have now:
[Code] ......
It works, unless there is a column before the "Categories" column that has the word "Categories" somewhere in its text. So basically if there is a column that has "Unit Categories" it finds that column when I really want it to find a column that has exactly "Categories" as the text and nothing else (but I don't want it to be case sensitive).
How do I force an exact match using this script?

In Sheet 1 there's a Column B with data I'd like to pull using a VLOOK-UP formula. However, I need it too look-up not only the exact number match in Sheet 2, but also the cell directly above it and the cell directly below it. In the sample above if I placed the VLOOK-UP formula in Sheet 2 (at for instance the numbers 23455, 23456, 23457), I'd need it to pull data from Sheet 1, Column B (for the 23456).
I need to search for an exact match within a cell & i am unsure of how to go abt it. Eg ) Cell A1 contains "Emea West,Emea East,Emea". I want to search for the term "Emea" in the contents of the Cell A1. I cant use Find() as using "=FIND("Emea",A6)" returns 1 ... But i want an exact match i.e "Emea" only which in this case should be 21. The Exact() works well if Cell A1 had a single value ...I guess I would need to use some array function here which will parse through contents of the cell , but am not sure on how to go about
