Compare With An Entry After Which It Need To Return A Text Indicator
Nov 11, 2008
I've a long list of value with indicator which I need to compare with an entry after which it need to return a text indicator. I'm using IF and MATCH function.
how to Chk the text string in particular cell, compare it with a super set column and get the full from of the text string from another corresponsing column and the output will be corresponsing full form of the chked text string?
I've been given a spreadsheet that is poorly constructed but I'm not allowed to alter.
The layout is: Box Name Box Date ID1 ID2 ID3 .... Where there is not a fixed number of IDs in each box (There are five different sheets so I'll have some fun concatenating results)
Given a list of IDs I need to return the box name and box date that the ID's file sits in. The spreadsheet has blanks everywhere and the numbers contained in rows are non-consecutive and smaller values can appear later in a column than larger ones.
I think I need some combination of index, offset and maybe sumproduct? TBH, I avoid sumproducts like the plague, preferring to utilise sumifs and dynamic named ranges since this improves clarity so I'm basically a newb at them.
Any skeleton framework that you think would work to return the text values for the LHS where the number could be anywhere? Once I can see a rough example I should be able to get to grips with the logic and wrangle it into the necessary solution.
I have a if function that i am creating in excel 2000, and it has 8 variables. I am trying to put it in a macro as it is not working as a nested if function. Here is the current if function...
I have a workbook with tons of programming I need to achieve. Here is my work book so it can be viewed.
Right now on "Protocol" Sheet I want the cells with the "Protocol 1" field to look at Admin_Panel Sheet and find the row with the same text. Then take the text in cell A of the same row and copy it to the cell below the "Protocol 1" listed on the protocol sheet.
Is there a formula that will allow me to look for the existence of any number value in a row of one worksheet and then return a specific number value in a cell on another worksheet? For example, if the formula finds any number value it will always return the number 15 to a cell on another worksheet.
I've got a spreadsheet with various amounts in cells A3:L5. I want to find the last non-blank entry in each row but only where the entry is in a column headed "Guaranteed PRB" (found in row 1). Then I want it to return the column header title found in row 2, which is a date.
I've attached a sample of the spreadsheet with the expected answer in column M.
The startmonthsp name refers to the months across the top of my pivot table. This formula works but I now need one small change. If the value in the columns are zero or less then I do not want the formula to return that column header (bypass it until it gets a positive value above zero).
Attached is a workbook that shows my formula in action.
I have a set of data which is the total monthly sales whereby each customer has several entries.
I have created an automated invoice through a vlookup system, yet i encounter the problem that i need to return each entry for the same customer into the automated invoice. But my vlookup will only return one entry for each customer as it is looking up the customer code and just brings back the first one it encounters, is there any way to bring back all entries for each client?
It's a spreadsheet of about 300 rows, each row corresponding to a certain department. each row is filled with various data, both text and numerical, including various different scores and averages. the columns include daily scores and weekly averages. I want to be able to create a new column that will calculate the time (in days or weeks) since the last score/average was entered.
1. a formula that will return the address of the last numerical entry in a given row. (I've got a MATCH formula that will do this, although it doesn't let me specify different cells or ranges, only the entire row)
2. whichever cell is returned will give the date instead of the value. (for example, if the last value entered is in $F$63, and Column F is headed 23/11/09, then the formula will give the date)
3. then finally, calculate the time between that date and the present time
I've tried various different things, both in normal Excel and the VBA editor, and I'm beginning to think maybe this isn't even possible.
Trying to write a formula that looks for the first number in the same row, then returns the value in that column in a different row. In the example included, cell A-7 should contain the formula. Within row 7, determine the column where the first number is listed (column D in this case), then return the value listed in row 3 of that column ('C' in this case).
I've tried Lookup, Index, and Match functions, but can't seem to get the right combination.
I have two columns with the same data type (text) and I want to compare one column to another and if they match, return the data from another column.
For example: I have 2 columns of names on separate Excel files. One file contains name and phone numbers, while the other doesn't. I want to compare the names from file one with file two and if the names match, return the corresponding phone number in a new column.
I've tried VLOOKUP and IF statements, but I can't get it to come out.
I have a sheet with 2 big columns (3000 each). I want to search each element from the first column in the second column and put a message "Yes" if it is and "No" if it isn't, at the same position in the third column. How can i do that? I want to use the sheet for more than 3000 lines (about 5000). I attached an example.
What formula do I need for the cells in column F to show the name of the cheapest supplier ... for example the cheapest (£17,820) in line 2 is supplier A ????
if there is a way to find duplicate items in a list and return a value, if a duplicate exists.
Basically I have 19 buildings each with a separate bill of quantities. I'm looking to compare and compile a comprehensive list. So that duplicate items in different buildings can be compared side by side.
I have attached a sample of what I am trying to do.
There is no fixed pattern for the values, but they are separated by commas only. All i need is to compare col A and col B and return me the value in Col C like this,
Col C (col C is to know the removed value from comparison) F (for line 1)
Col D (to find the letters that are added from comparison) T (for line 2)
I have 2 columns of usernames A and B, A has approx 700 usernames and B has about 80. In column C I have a list of names 1 for each username in column A. I want to compare the B with A and if there is a match return the value in C and place it in D.
I have two columns of values and I want to compare them and return differing values. So I named the ranges "A" and "B" so if your in B but not in A I want that value in C.
I started with a vlookup but that doesn't seem appropriate to the way I was using it.
I'm trying to compare cells in two spreadsheets and return a value to another cell in one of those spreadsheets.
SPREADSHEET_1
Column A - NAME (Contains Data) Column B - AREA (Contains Data) Column C - PLAN (Contains Data)
SPREADSHEET_2
Column A - AREA (Contains Data) Column B - NAME (EMPTY) Column C - PLAN (EMPTY)
I need to compare Spreadsheet_1 - Column B to Spreadsheet_2 - Column A and then fill in the cells in spreadsheet_2 with the values from spreadsheet_1 column A and column C.
I have a list of two rows of over 20,000 items. I would like to know what data has been added to the second row from the first row and what has been removed.
I have two spreadsheets that I have to compare three columns in each to each other and find the difference between them. And I'm not sure how to do this.
I have attached a sample file to show what I'm looking at.
Basicly I need to know the differences between each spreadsheet based on zips. Each zip is assigned to a store and group and the "data" spreadsheet is the master. I need to compare the "system" spreadsheet and have it show me what is different based on each zip.
I have two columns, one with the target text (D:D) and one with text I want to compare it too (A:A). If the text in column (D:D) matches the one in (A:A), I want to return the value in (B:B). I attached a sample of the problem i'm dealing with.
I'm using Excel 2002 and looking for a way to get rid of the red comment indicator in entirety. While I get that it's not possible there appears to be a workaround which I took off the Contextures website.
Sub RemoveIndicatorShapes()
Dim ws As Worksheet Dim shp As Shape
Set ws = ActiveSheet
For Each shp In ws.Shapes If Not shp.TopLeftCell.Comment Is Nothing Then If shp.AutoShapeType = _ msoShapeRightTriangle Then shp.Delete End If End If Next shp
Basically I have a string of dates, I want to get the max of the values that are before a specific date and return the header. Look at the file I provide for better understanding.
I must match column A and column B to return the column C In colA there are all my countries In column B there are all my countries code and countries I want get the colC where all my colB match than colA.
I have used the merge facility to incoporate all the worksheets into one excel files. As they all have same heading, I have sorted the data, first by their account expiry time (oldest to newest) and then by manager (A-Z)
For example, system report generated on 15/03/2013, 28/03/2013, 03/04/2013, 15/05/2013, 28/05/2013 and so on and these are sheet names too. What I want is one worksheet called report with the same heading as my merged worksheets and return values where Column C in 28/03/2013 is compared to 15/03/2013 and if the employee ID matches than return the whole row of data for the report.
the next query would then be for finding employee ID in 03/04/2013 and comparing it with 28/03/2013 worksheet and returning the matched ID in report worksheet.
This is the layout of the report worksheet.
Display NameEmployee IDAccount StatusE-mailDepartmentManagerComment 15/03/2013 to 28/03/2013 28/03/2013 to 03/04/2013 03/04/2013 to 15/05/2013 15/05/2013 to 28/05/2013
so for the above report worksheet, if employee id matches the two compared worksheet (15/03/2013 to 28/03/2013) return all value (Display name, employee id, account status, email, department, manager, comment) from the 28/03/2013 and so on.
