Find Duplicates From Multiple Columns And Return A Value?
Jun 9, 2014
My spreadsheet has multiple "sessions" by date and each has three columns: a name, their organization, and a column where we want to display an "R" if they are a repeat participant. Each new session is entered to the right of the last. The names are in every third column. Like so:
name company R
name company
name company
name company R
Is it possible to search through the whole document to find repeating names, and then display an "R" in every third column if they are a repeat participant?

Lets see if I can put this into words.
I am trying to find matches of a specific cell in various columns. Example:
Header 1 -------Header 2----------Header 3
-ABC123-----------abc123--------------abd123
-abd123-----------hjk321---------------hdn234
-Abc123-----------dsd123--------------sds332
If I searched for the value "abc123" I want it to return Headers 1 and 2 in a seperate column. It would not matter if the same value is in one column multiple times
So the results would show me the Column Heading for anything that reads: "abc123", "ABC123", "AbC123", "aBC123"
Is this possible?

I have following sheet:
Data from A1: BU1644
I need to check, if in A1:BU1 are any duplicate words.
All the formulas I found deal with finding duplicates downward (like A1:A1000).
Have not seen any formula which works across (from left to right)
Is there an easy way in Excel 2010 either to tag/ and -or remove the duplicate which I could apply and then just copy downward? The formula must work from left to right, because many words repeat downward.

I'm running a football competition for my business where customers are required to guess World Cup football scores via Facebook. I'm storing all their entries in a spreadsheet.
In the spreadsheet column a is their name, b is the match (e.g. England v Italy), c is the home tame (England), d is the score (1-1), e is the away team (Italy)
Across from, that I have the actual fixtures taking place at the World Cup. So column I is the date, K is the home team (England), L is the actual score (2-0) and M is the away team (Italy)
What I need is a formula that when I enter the result on a game into the right set of columns (Columns I:M) it will highlight those Columns (Columns C:E) that have entered that correct score.
It needs to compare 3 columns and not just one because for example if it highlights the score (1:1 for example) it could be highlighting someone who picked Spain v Holland 1:1 where the correct result would be someone who picked England v Italy 1:1.

I have searched the many forum solutions for duplicates however the ones I found relate to a single column. However what I would like to be able to do is starting from row 6 is to remove duplicates of multiples columns of a single worksheet, namely columns M, O, P, Q and R. Note some cells in each column are blank.
To clarify - it would firstly check for duplicates in column M, keeping just one of the rows of the duplicated value and removing entiely the row/rows of where the duplications appeared. Then go through each of the other four columns. of the worksheet doing the same for each of the other four columns.
Then after the duplicates are removed from all five columns provide a tally at the bottom of the worksheet of how many times a value now appears in the cells of each of repective columns.

Columns A, B, and C have data (first name, last name, state) - 125k rows. Columns F, G, and H have data (first name, last name, state) - 5k rows. Some of these individuals are bound to appear on both lists, and I need to know which ones are indeed on both lists. So in other words, let's say I've got "John" "Doe" "TX" in cells F1, G1, and H1, respectively. I want to search through columns A, B, and C to find out if there are any instances in those columns of "John" "Doe" "TX" in the same row.
I'm thinking there will be multiple VLOOKUP formulas involved, but I could be way off.

I am trying to tell the spreadsheet that if column G *and* column V are both identical to another row's column G and V, then the entire row is a duplicate and to highlight and delete it. I also want to record a macro of this process to apply to all spreadsheets.
Here are the tutorials I am looking at, but whatever I am doing is not working the way it is working for them.
Conditional Formatting, find duplicates with multiple columns [URL]...
I am highlighting cell A2, and under Conditional Formatting, I select "Formula Is" =SUM(COUNTIF($G:$G,G2),COUNTIF($V:$V,G2))>1
Then I select the format as light orange text, but it is only highlighting A2....
That is as far as I have gotten, and I still do not know how to go about deleting the duplicate entries. I have also read there are issues with recording a macro when trying to find duplicates using more than one column in the formula, but I have not gotten that far so I can't test it.
As is likely evident in my formula and process, I am not very experienced with Excel.

This is a very SMALL sample of the data I need to sort through. We have been using filters but the data is growning and becoming far too time consuming using the filter method.
The output I am looking to achieve is something like this, (any format is fine; whether in rows or columns)
SVR1
1.99.99.254
(2) CAT I (display how many CAT I for SVR1)
CAT I: 2011-B-44
CAT I: ST-5546
(2) CAT II (display how many CAT II for SVR1)
CAT II: 2011-B-52
CAT II: 2011-A-21
SVR2
2.5.2.333
(1) CAT I
CAT I: 2012-E-55
(1) CAT II
CAT II: 2011-A-21
COLUMN A, varies from SVR1-SVR1400 (cointains duplicates)
COLUMN B, IP matches SVR name (contains duplicates)
COLUMN C, will be either CAT I, CAT II, CATIII
COLUMN D, will contain duplicates
I have some history of using formulas and nested formulas but this one is really throwing me for a loop. It feels like Inception to me and I'm not really sure where to start!
A
B
C
D
SVR1
1.99.99.254

Want a single count of multiple columns based on the columns selected value. Data is in text format.
Have tried multiple COUNTIF statements and have tried using pivot table (Excel 2010) both only give me total counts for all. I think I need an OR statement somewhere, but not sure where?
In other words, if a single record has an "any" in the any fields or a "yes" in the yes fields, I want to to count that as one record.
Sample data:
Pegnancy Smoke
Pregnancy Alcohol
Pregnancy Marijuana
Pregnancy Powder
Stress Cigarettes
Stress Marijuana
Stress Alcohol
Stress Medication
[Code] .....

i have is 3 sheets in the same excel document. Sheet 1 is the mater sheet, which is a compilation of sheets 2 and 3, however the sheet layouts are different.
The sheets consist of a list of names and details. Sheet 1 has all the names in the list, however sheet 2 and 3 only have partial lists that are in a different order from the original list. The details listed next to the names in sheets 2 and 3 are different and hence a straight forward row copy and paste will not work.
What i need is to write a vba script that can take the name from the master list, search sheets 2 and 3 for the name and lookup the variables placed in next to the name, then update the master sheet accordingly, then continue to the next name on the master sheet and do the update again, and so on until all is updated. I have already thought about using lookup functions in excel however there is 1000 names on the list and around 60 details so it would be messy.

Column A:
pants A green
Pants B red
Jacket C green
Jacket D blue
Polo C white
....
I need a formula to find some value( in our case "colors" = "green, red, blue, white" ... = 20-30 values), and to return in column B, the values, like:
Column A: Column B:
pants A green | green
Pants B red | red
Modern green Jacket | green
blue winter jacket | blue
Polo white D | white
I have different product feeds (csv) and i will like to search for colors in the product names.

I am working with a macro into which you input a date, the macro searches for that date (in column D of the data sheet), then copies any row with that date onto a new sheet.
This works great, but now I need to be able to search for more than one date at a time and return any rows that cantain ANY of those dates. For example, I would want to search for any row containing 01/01/07 - 01/07/07 or any row containing 01/01/07, 01/02/07, 01/03/07...01/07/07.

I have two separate worksheets, and I am trying to create a Vlookup or Index and Match formula. Here is the example:
Sheet 1
Cell A1= Employee ID: 123-D.
Sheet2
Vlookup A1 from Sheet 1, and match the first five characters to Column A, Column I and Column P. If a match, return name (e.g. John Doe) in Sheet 1, cell B1.

I have a spreadsheet with twenty columns. Column A has an item number (say "Clutch"), and the remainder of the columns have values. However, there only be one column in the range B:T which will have a value on the same row as "Clutch" (say "Black" in column "N").
How I can I return "Black" using a vlookup or should I be using something else?

I would like to return the value in column D (Store Name) that corresponds to the Max value in column N (Units Still Required). However, this Max value must meet certain criteria. That is, the State (column J) and Style Code (column Q) must be the same as that of the row being considered.
I have tried the below formula, and it appears to work the majority of the time, however, occassionally it does not adhere to the criteria (i.e. same State and Style Code).
For example in cell M7:
=IF(L7=0," ",INDEX(D$7:D$999,MATCH(MAX((IF((J:J=J7)*(Q:Q=Q7),N:N))),N$7:N$999,0)))

3.3.3.1
Sheet 1 has 7 columns(system,ip1,ip2,ip3,ip4,ip5,ip6 and ip7)
Sheet 2 has 2 columns (ip,system)
I have to fill column "system" in sheet 2 with "system" listed in column 1 of Sheet1.
In other words look for "ip" in Sheet2 in 6 columns of Sheet1 and return column 1 of sheet1 as value.

I got a good start on what I need to do from this thread here: [URL] ......
A user will use a userform to enter in results from a room inspection into one sheet and then on another sheet selects the maid and it pull up the matching room inspections. I wish to then limit it to a date range which can be found in two cells.
Currently cells D2:H2 contain the array
[Code] ......
and cells D3:H3 contain
[Code] .........
I would like to further limit those searches by restricting the date range, Cells D4 and E4 contain the first of the month and last of the month respectively.
I would like to avoid the easy answer, start a new workbook each month, but I won't be the person entering the data or using the separate sheet to conduct performance reviews so it needs to be one workbook that lasts from month to month.

I have a spreadsheet with three years worth of data for a property I manage. Each column has cost data for the year and the specific department/cost for that year as the row value.
I have a column between the years that calculates the percent of gross revenue for the specific department/cost.
I would like to find (or create) a formula that will compare the percentage (or specific cost) for the three years within the specific row and if the increase year over year over year exceeds a trigger value it returns something (check me out/true/false) whatever.
The cost items for the property are in the hundreds so I'm trying to come up with a way to quickly see what specific cost items are going up (or down) more rapidly then what would be considered normal.

I'm trying to find a way to:
Use a referenced lookup value from sheet "A", to return values, from several columns in sheet "B"
Things to note:
a) The lookup values sometimes repeat. I need all the associated values with each repetition as well.
b) The lookup values in sheet "A" are a comprehensive list, sheet "B" also contains some of these values but not all. Essentially, what I need to do is find a way to lookup each value in an account numbers column in sheet "A", against a different account numbers column in sheet "B".
If that value occurs in sheet "B" I want it to return the values from Columns X, Y, Z, (I want these values returned in sheet "A".
If that value does not occur in sheet B, the corresponding cells should remain blank.
If the lookup value occurs multiple times, I need all the corresponding values from each of X, Y, Z columns.

Sheet2:
col A = contains the style#
col B = contains the color of the style
col C = contains the size of the style

Sheet1:
I would like to do the following:
A1 = input the style #
B1 = input the color of that style
C1 = input the size of that style
then D1 should automatically contain the qty of the mentioned style, color, and size.

I have a table with column headings of product ID Numbers (eg.1111) and row headings of Store number (Eg.1) with data showing the time each product was last sold at that store, I need something to consolidate for each store which Product ID's were sold prior to 5pm and what time they were sold.
EG
Store 1 1111 16:40
2222 13:00
Store 2 1111 15:05

I have been put together some simple coding to find and replace a value (1) that i have obtained from a pivot table. My aim was to replace any "1" with the column header. The reason for this is that the cell(s) will be used in a VLookup at a late stage.
My problem is that I have the code to work for a single cell, but I want it to work for multiple columns so I don not have to create multiple macros.
I need to go from Column C to AW. I have a total row at the end - hence why I am using 'Step - 1'.
Code:
Sub FindReplace()
Dim i, lRow
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
[Code]....

I am trying to find min value for a row (product price) within two columns (price lists) and return row one (company name) in third column ( see the attachmet). My first idea was to use “min” and “if” but a problem occur when there are text or zero or none values in the price list. I tried with conditional formatting, offset function, match-index and other methods without success

what I'm after is a macro to check the contents of Column 'A' against column 'B' and display any duplicates in Columns 'C' & 'D'.
N.B. The headings of Columns C & D are :-
C = Value Found in Column A
D = Value Found in Column B
Any duplicate entries logged in columns C & D should be listed in C2,C3,C4....C20 and D2,D3,D4......D20 etc (in effect creating two new lists)

I have a macro that converts all my PDF Purchase Orders to a text file and inserts the data/text horizontally into another document. However because the PDF's or the text within the PDF can be fomatted differently (that is on different lines etc) it therefore imports the information and it looks mis-aligned.I have attached a simple spreadsheet showing some sample text as it is imported and then below this how it should look like, all in line.
The range where the highlighted text in red is, is variable (but say nothing more than a variant of 10 columns). The text can also be Uppercase or Lowercase.So, I was wondering if there is macro code to find the "text" on various rows/columns and align it all in another column?
