I seem to having a problem with my spreadsheet using Vlookup. It's mainly because on the 1st column, there are items which have duplicates and are differentiated only by the 3rd and 4th column.
example:
1st column: Bob Jane John Bob
3rd column: Red Orange Purple Blue
4th Column 1 2 3 4
Basically I'm doing a vlookup and but i want to combine (or sum) the 4th column values of Bob (Red) and Bob (Blue). I know I could use the SUMIF function in order to do what I want but I was wondering if I could nest that function within the vlookup so that it would do it automatically?
I have two sheets. One of them has a long list of numbers and the other one has a shorter list, all of which are also on the first sheet. How can I automatically delete the second sheets numbers from the first sheet?
I have a worksheet with that I need to delete both rows if the data in one of the columns is the same. I know how to delete the duplicate row, but I need both rows deleted..........
From the example above I would want Rows 1,2 and 10,11 and 12,13 deleted based on the data in column D
Transferring Multiple Data from separate worksheet without duplicating"
As you can see i am looking for information in column d (Letter) and getting the result to show from column B (number) using the formula in Column G (result 1).
The problem i am having is that if i try to copy or drag the formula down into Result 2 i just get the same answer.
Is there any way for the next cell down to ignore the previous result?
I've created a calendar in VB following the instructions in this link - [url]
The calendar works fine but the problem I've got is I've got unwanted copies of the shortcut when I right-click. If you scroll down the URL, right at the bottom in blue is a paragraph that describes the problem and how to get rid of it. I've tried this numerous times but the duplicate entries keep re-appearing.
I've attached my workbook in the hope that any of you experts would be so kind as to take a look and offer any help or advice on how to fix this problem?
Example: i can have the same number repeated in column C & the same number repeated in column D But numbers in both column can not be repeated on the same row Values are added in columns C & D sheet2 by userform combobox . i am looking or a messagebox warning when = cell values in both column are found.
I have a workbook that consists of three sheets. One is the "Master", which is were all raw data is entered. The second is a "Criteria" sheet that has a series of dates, which is later reference in my SUMPRODUCT formula and the last is a "Summary" sheet; this sheet basically summarizes all the employee data with multiple criteria. This is the sheet references both the MASTER and the CRITERIA sheets. BTW, I posted a similar thread about this here: Summarize Totals from Multiple Worksheets. I took the advice and started fresh....
My issue is that on the master, there will some employee names that are almost identical which causes problems with my SUMPRODUCT formula. This is the formula I'm using. =SUMPRODUCT((LNAME=$A6)*(DATE_CHK>=Criteria!B$5)*(DATE_CHK<=Criteria!C$5)*(SUM_RNG))
Obviously, there are named ranges. As you can see the first item in the formula references the name (LNAME). This uses the employees last name. The problem is that we have many employees with the same last name so my totals are off. I've attached a sample to better grasp what I'm working with.
I have an application that generate an excel sheet for me. In this sheet I have multiple rows with duplicated dates and text. With VBA I need to clear the content of all the cells that contain duplicated date and keep just the first row.
I have about 800 records and the the unique identifier are the names. Some owners are repeated several times and they have different values for the EDU column in my project. I need to remove any duplicated owners but I need to add up the values of each record that had value so I can get a combined value for one owner instead of a repeated owner with smaller values. How would I go by doing that? A formula or is there a tool in excel? I am lost on this one. I uploaded a sample file so you can see what I trying to do.
BTW i found if the values are the same for the EDU then I can not add them since it is also duplicated. I can only add up the unique values for the EDU.
Basically I have an export which I need to manipulate so I can do a mail merge. I've managed to find a solution to remove the data I don't need and also managed to create the mail merge (even fixing the weird American date issue)
The data that is left looks a bit like this
Staff ID Name week ending week ending 1 Bob Smith 02/03/14
[Code]...
basically what i need the macro to do is to see theres two Bob Smiths (or 2 Staff Id's "1") and put the second instance in column 4
e.g.
Staff ID Name week ending week ending 1 Bob Smith 02/03/14 09/03/14
[Code]...
in some instances there could be 20+ week ending dates to go into the row.
also I don't need to have the dates all in seperate boxes, I just need the information in a row so the mail merge reads and sends out one message rather than 20 messages to the same person asking for each week by itself.
I've manually moved the dates into the boxes up to now and everything else is working
I manage messaging server farm that keeps mailboxes and their replicas on different servers for resilience. I need a way to check the replication status. I try to do it by comparing their sizes. I got all mailboxes and replicas incl their sizes imported into excel (2010) and I need a way to compare them.
Like this: name size
John Smith 10
Mary Westwood 20
[Code] ......
My idea was to find matching pair (two records of John Smith) and compare size. If the size differs more than specific value (5% or 2MB for example) the result is true/value/colour by conditional formatting etc.
I have a spreadsheet that contains thousands of rows and I need to highlight all the duplicates in Column B.
What I need though is one group o duplicates to be colored one color and then the next group of duplicates be colored a different color. I need just a 2 color banding.
My need for 2 colors is that the cells contain 9 digit numbers and there can be duplicate groups right next to each other and for the eye to distinguish a different grouping of cells I need that 2 color banding.
I have the below code that colors everything in one color. Can I be modified or a completely new code to do 2 colors?
Code: Sub Dups() Dim Rng As Range Dim CL As Range
Set Rng = Range(Range("B1"), Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
For Each CL In Rng If WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Rng, CL.Value) > 1 Then CL.Interior.ColorIndex = 6 End If Next CL End Sub
I have big spreadsheets where in A column are 3 letter codes (JFK), in some cases they stand alone in one cell and in other cases there can be more of them in cell separated by / (JFK/LGA/HOU,....). Problem is that some codes are duplicated. I need a macro which would be able to check column A for codes which are duplicated and colour them. I have attached example file, so that is easyier to understand how my data looks and what I would like that macro will do for me.
I've been working on my original problem and have gotten a little closer to the results I'm looking for but not quite there. Basically, I'm now running into a problem of only finding the 1st occurence in a range of cells when I want to find every occurrence and show the result. Also, the range of cells to look for in my argument has 2 criteria, the start date and the end date. Can anyone tell me if there's a way to search through a range of cells and return every instance of that cell even if it's duplicated?
I've also attached my project to better understand what I'm trying to accomplish which is the use of a Gantt Chart as an employee scheduler as opposed to a task (or project) scheduler.
So, I have some names and values. Rank function give me order for those values. Small function gives me ascending order. I want to get first n (let say 5) values back next to each other but can't use VLOOKUP function because sometimes I get duplicates (red numbers).
If there is more same numbersthat small function returns... It need to give me all of them, no matter 5 is limit. how to get back values of rank function that are duplicated. Book1.xls
I have built a template worksheet from which I have developed a macro to copy and rename a new worksheet for each month. When the macro executes, it duplicates the macro buttons on the sheet. That is it copies the original macro buttons over (good) then adds "new" buttons in the same locations. The original macro button have been labelled with their function (eg Copy and Paste).The new buttons continue to go up in sequential order e.g. Button 71, Button 72... How do I remove these additional "new" buttons without deleting all of the buttons on the sheet?
Each task in my spreadsheet has multiple jobs assigned to it. Frequently users will work two jobs for the same task simultaneously and log the time together.
Unfortunately when I go to try to sum up how much time was spent on each task, this causes it to appear as if the task took twice (or even twenty+) times as long as it truly did.
I want to be able to figure out the time spent on each task for each user. In order to do this, I need to get rid of rows where the task id and the user id are both duplicated in another row.
I have a long list of items. I would like to assign the same number to each of the replicates. I've been trying to expand on this: = COUNTIF($A$1:A1,A1). which increments the number for each replicate, but don't seem to be getting anywhere. The attached file might make it clearer what I'm after.
is there a formula or a way to return a unique entry in a column if a value is present in another cell? refer attachment; if their is a value in column C (site A) return the entry in column B but only if it is unique, ie. return supplier 'DEF' only once irrespective of the amount of times the value appears under the site heading.
