Wild Card Character Used In Array Formula
Jun 26, 2013
The usage of the wild card character is not getting me the results I need for a formula I am using at work. When the wild card asterisk character is removed, I get the correct result but only for an exact match of the particular text. I need it to match the "Particular Text plus another text. The Text is CBKC. Then there is also CBKC 5400 and so on. I need to have the wild card expression character before and after the CBKC characters. The formula is below that I used.
=sum(--k2:k500),--(c2:c500=" Y"),--(D2:D500=" Permit"),--(s2:s500="*CBKC*))
Excel doesn't like the way I am expressing the wild card inside the double quotes......the column getting added if the matches are found is column K. The other columns have to meet the criteria in the formula.

I have a workbook containing 2 sheets. In the first sheet I have a list of values, let's say that the list contains names:
Worksheet1
Column A
Peter
Paul
In another worksheet I have another column, also containing names:
Worksheet2
Column A
James Harrow
Paul Givens
I wish to perform a vlookup in worksheet2 but cannot use wildcards in the table array :
Vlookup ("*"&ColumnA&"*";Table1[Table or table and column];1;false). What I want should look like the following: ("*"&ColumnA&"*";"*"&Table1[Table or table and column]&"*";1;false)
In this problem, it is not appropriate to query back to front; i.e. vlookup worksheet1 instead of vlookup in worksheet 2.
I have seen an interesting post that uses macros (on this site, I think) but was not able to implement it.

If any excel expert who know how to compare names that are similar to one other with a wild card,
for example
A
COLUMBUS STEEL CASTINGS CO. 2ND LIEN (AKA BP METALS)
B
BP METALS AKA COLUMBUS STEEL Total
A
LS POWER - BROADWAY GEN FUNDING LLC
B
BROADWAY GEN FUNDING, LLC Total

Suppose the data is:
beaut* 1
abc* 2
and I use the command:
Vlookup("beautiful", A1:B2, 2, false)
I want this formula to return 1. I have done it before, the other way around when the wildcard is used in the formula but not in data.

I'm trying to use the COUNTIFS function & have run into trouble because the 2nd criteria is a date. Typically I would just set the range & then put "01/01/2014" if I was looking for all of the January 1, 2014 cells. However in this spreadsheet my source data contains the date with the time. (01/01/2014 11:27:39 AM). Becasue the time is included in the cell, the function returns no results when I set teh date.
I tried to use a wild card "01/01/2014*" which I thought would bypass the time but it still retuns no results. Is there a way to use a windcard with a date cell?

We have agreed maximum rates with suppliers for certain services and I'd like to check that the rates they have invoiced fall below the agreed maximum.
I've attached an example of the data I'm working with. What I'm after is a formula that will cross check the details and rate charged on the 'Invoiced' tab against the three 'rate card' tabs and generate an output that flags any discrepancies. I've added a column called 'Validate' on the 'Invoiced' tab where I'd like this formula to go.
All the data should match with the exception of the shift which is listed as a description on the rate card but is a concatenation of the job role and an abbreviation of the shift (D = Days, N = Nights/ Saturday and O = Sunday/ Bank Hols).

I have a sheet which details specific card numbers in Column A, and the date and place of transaction in the Column B. This very long list contains multiple entries for each card number. What I would like to do is use Sheet2 to list each card number and the number of times it appears in the list.

There is a method to use ROW(1:10) within an array formula to strip a string into individual elements e.g.
HELLO > {"H","E","L","L","O"}
I cannot find it anywhere, thought it was something like =MID(A1,ROW(1:10),1) but not yielding results.

I would like to format columns "L" and "M", if the value in column "O" contains the letters "EU" or "US". The values in column "O" will look like EU 3 & 2, or US 1 up. or just text with no numbers. I was thinking if I could write a formula that will say 'if the value in cell ?? contains "EU" format color A if the value contains "US" format color B. I know this will take two separate statements but I am not sure how to write it with a wild card to allow for the variations. Something like If value is EU and some wild card string then, format.

I am using vlookup to get a cell value from another sheet, but if the cell has "&" or "/" I need to substitue "&" and "/" with "and" so that the cell can be added later to a url.
i am using =VLOOKUP(a1,Sheet2!A1:W17968,6) to get the value of a1 in sheet 2 and return the value of column 6
this will return "Audio Cables & Leads" but i need it to say Audio Cables and Leads
I need the formula to also check and replace "/" with "and" as well so cables/wire will be Cables and wire

Say I have 3 columns of data: A1:C10 and I want to run a Match() function on them all together to see if I get a match any one those cells, say the value of have in X1.
Since, Match only allows a One-Column lookup array.. is there a way to "concatenate" or "append" the 3 columns together within a formula so now I would be looking to Match in an array that is 1 column * 30 rows?
Basically want to convert =Match(X1,A1:C10,0) to =Match(X1,A1:A30,0) without moving around the raw data in the sheet.
And I want to avoid doing an AND or OR formula that uses 3 separate MATCH() for each column.
I have a hunch that the MMULT or MMULT/TRANSPOSE functions are involved, but can't seem to get it right.

I am looking to modify my combobox from a userform to Filter the list based on the first entry on what the user will add.
I have a code that will search for all entries in my "Control" sheet and passed this on to my combobox:
[Code] ......
I have, within a module, the following function code that the user find the entry by adding the first 3 letters of the search they need:
[Code] .....
I would like to know what to change in the function to filter the list, once the user adds a first letter and then press the dropdown from the combobox, to filter the list based on all entries from the first letter to only show entries with that letter.
If A is entered, then, show only the entries strating with the starting letter A, but at the same time if the user adds more letter to filter to the first then second letter:
If AB is inserted, then, show entries with AB only.
Where do I add this code also, is this another function or this could be inserted within my function?

I want to count the number of cells in column B that contain the start with the string US/IL. Here's the formula that I created, but it returns a value of 0 instead of 590.
Is there something I need to do differently when a cell value contains the / character in the string?
=SUM(COUNTIF(B5:B1830,"US/IL"))
Once I have the correct formula for the above, I want to write another formula on the row below that counts how many rows of this 590 value have a corresponding "Yes" value in Column M.
The first formula will sit in cell B1840
The second formula will sit in cell B1841

I´m trying to find a way to get a formula which can look if there is a character (let´s say it is "-") in a formula which is, by the way, variable (let´s say each cell has different values like: =899+59-6 and so it goes and goes), and brings me a true or false value.
Specifically it is like this:
I have formulas to be evaluated like the following:
=899+59-6
I need a formula which can look into the formula and if it finds the character "-" or a "+", brings me a true or false message.

I have data in cell A1 and A2 which looks like below
SECTOR - 11, HIRAN MAGRI, - 313001
MAIN BRANCH, 30-15-171 DABA GARDENS, NEAR SARASWATI PARK,-530020,
In cell A1 the number of hypens (-) are 2
In cell A2 the number of - are 3
What I am looking for is a formula which can remove all additional - except the last one. Therefore the result of the formula should be
SECTOR 11, HIRAN MAGRI, - 313001

Is there anyway of aligning part of a formula to a certain character limit (63)?
For example:
Aaaaaa(A1), bbbbbbb(B1), 1111111.00(C1)
Aaaa(A2), bbbb(B2), 11.00(C2)
to
Aaaaaa(A1), bbbbbbb(B1),____________1111111.00(C2)
Aaaa(A2), bbbb(B2),______________________11.00(C2)

I'm helping out a community that puts out a role playing game by making a character sheet for their gaming system. It's normally a pen-and-paper type affair, but a few people have reached out to me and asked me to make it. Now, one thing that I really thought would be nifty would be to make it persistent. I know of the Excel basics, creating basic formulas and the such, but this is where I hit a brick wall.
For the character sheet, they normally have basic attributes on a 1-20 scale. These attributes are accomanied by a bonus. The only thing is those, while these bonuses go across a linear path (For attribute 1, it's -30, for 2 its -20, for 3 its -10, for 4 its -5 for 5 its 0....), I cant seem to figure out how to create some kind of If/Then formula for it....
Heres my example:
Brad makes a character that has a score of 9 for one of his attributes. The bonus given to someone with a 9 is a +10. What I'm looking to do is create a table that sees that 'If (c9)=9, Then (d9)=+10'...
And my second related issue...
Is there any possible way to do the above mentioned formula in relation to a drop down selection bar? It's the same thing here; To break it down simply, It would be excellent if there was a way for it to say If (a10)=Warrior, then (c10)= +10.

Is there a fomula that can add trailing spaces. For example....I need a certain feild to be 11 Characters in length. So lets say in Column A, I have a bunch of different words:
House
Bird
Up
Down
Yes
No
I would like to put a formula in column B that takes my original text and adds blank spaces to the end of it until it's 11 Characters. So "House" in Column A would be "House " in column B.
