Find Formula That Will Automatically Fill In Text?
Mar 19, 2012
I am trying to find a formula that will automatically fill in text that is entered in Sheet1 if it matches with a name in Sheet 2. I have found a formula that will enter a number but it will not work for text.
=SUMPRODUCT(Sheet 1!$C$3:$C$31,--(Sheet 2!$B$3:$B$31=$A15))
I would like the job on sheet 2 column B to fill in from what is listed next to their name on Sheet 1 column C, if the name of the person is entered on Sheet 2.
Sheet 1
NameJob1MaryFile2JohnLog3SallyIntake4PeterPack
Sheet 2
Staff Name &JobMary0John0Sally0Peter0

I am creating a register of first aid kits on my site. What I want to do is have a summary as the first worksheet, and then have contents, and individual expiry dates for each kit on seperate kits. Is there a way to autofill, or auto complete, a different sheet name in formulas?
Ie.
='Kit 1'!$B$27
='Kit 2'!$B$27
='Kit 3'!$B$27
...
='Kit 44'!$B$27

As I am a fresh user of excel 2007 I do not know how hard it is to solve the problem I am facing but hopefully there is a solution that the readers here are willing to share with me.
I have a list of **-s that I have recorded as a hobby with my friends (karaoke, free concerts...) and I have them coded in a specific way, so that I can find them on a shelve easily. The list is built up in a form that is seen on the example file that I added.
So far I have used my own handwriting and a sticker to label my ** boxes. Itīs not a very good looking combo to be honest. Since I already have all the data in my excel tabel it would be good to use excel to take all the things from there and just print it out.
How to do that? The front cover is easy, I used VLOOKUP function. All I have to do is enter a number into the column C1 and the front label gets filled.
The problem for me is the back cover that should take the right track nr, title and length from several rows (VLOOKUP uses only one row at a time)? How to make it work, that excel would know that on the first album there are 3 tracks and when chaging a number in C1 there would be 2 tracks on a second one.

I am using this code and it works fine:
Dim MyData As Range
Dim MyResult As Range
Set MyData = Range("E1:E1000000")
Set MyData2 = Range("F1:F1000000")
Set MyResult = Range("J4")
MyResult.Select
Selection.Formula = "=COUNTIFS(" & MyData.Address & ",""=Kim""," & MyData2.Address & ",""=done"" )"
Is there any way I can change the code so that it automatically finds the last cell as Im using Range("E1:E1000000") and Range("F1:F1000000") because there will not be more than 1000000 entries.

I am trying to organize it in a way that I can have all my purchases added based on my text criteria of certain purchase... Ill try to be as clear as possible. I have already organized it in a way that when I paste new months statement in my Excel file it sorts it by date, newest on the top, and I made Conditional Formatting by color on column D which states the Description of purchase. Starbucks appears in description cell but it is followed by number and location making each Starbucks cell in column D different in name. So its hard to use Exact phrase formula to combine the amount for that purchase.
My question is: Is there a formula that find a PORTION of text in a D column and automatically adds the price to the right of it together in one cell. There is a formula that looks for the whole text in the cell but that doesn't work when my name has always some extra numbers at the end of the word Starbucks

I have an existing Cash Flow Report that has a column of abbreviated/shortened (WBS Element) title where each cell contains a unique three lettered/numbered amount of characters (Example: 200). These three abbreviated character cells are specific and relate to their full/longer (SAP WBS Element) title (Example: WBS DWRRI-BW066-200).
In my attached excel model (Find, Locate, and Align WBS Elements to Cash Flow Report.xlsx), I need a formula for the, "Cash Flow Report WBS Elements" sheet in cells B3 thru B11 that will look at the abbreviated three lettered/numbered (WBS Element) titles in cells C3 thru C11, then search and recognize its unique counterpart contained in the, "SAP WBS Elements Export" sheet and return this full/longer (SAP WBS Element) title to the, "Cash Flow Report WBS Elements" sheet in cells B3 thru. B11, just to the left of its abbreviated/shortened (WBS Element) title.

I have a worksheet with several columns. I need a formula to search column D only and each time a specific location is identified to replace that location with alternate text. Example (ORIGNAL TEXT):
Column Dtext to text help.xlsx
BIRD
FISH
DOG
BAT
BUG
I need to search that listing and each time the word BIRD is mentioned have it replaced with FEATHERS and each time DOG is listed have it replaced with TAILS Final result would look like:
FEATHERS
FISH
TAILS
BAT
BUG
All other text should stay the same and replacement text should appear in the cell of the text it is replacing. This is a sheet used by multiple people several times a day and so the Find/Replace option really won't work.
Have working on this for at least 6 months and it just isn't going to happen for me. I thought I could use a Conditional format, but that is producing no results either.

to illustrate I attached a spreadsheet.The spreadsheet contains 5 colunms.
1. Names
2-4. Numbers
5. Sum of numbers (the formula for the sum is only entered in the first row)
What I want to do is automatically fill in sums from the second to the last row. I was trying it with the "record macro" function but failed because I don't know how to jump to the last row. CRTL-Shift-down is not useful in this case.

I have an Excel file which extracts data from other excel files (the other excel files are named 1.xls, 2.xls, 3.xls, etc.). So the formula in the cell is for example: ='C:[1.xls]Sheet1'!A1
Is there a way to let Excel fill in the next excel file address for the next cell? So that i would get this:
='C:[1.xls]Sheet1'!A1
='C:[2.xls]Sheet1'!A1
='C:[3.xls]Sheet1'!A1
='C:[4.xls]Sheet1'!A1
etc..
Because i have about 500 excel files, and otherwise i have to change the file number manually...

What formula can I use to search a range of cell values for a specific text string? My method is searching formulas instead, which is not what I want.
Background: I am developing a little test script for a project and I want to include some automatic validations to help make the job of the testers easier.
What I have set up so far:
1. Testers input numbers into specific fields M8 through M20.
2. Fields N8 through N20 automatically check fields M8 through M20 and compare those with what is contained in a range of hidden cells I set up in advance. A formula ensures that it reports "correct" or "incorrect" on a field-by-field basis, based on the comparison.
3. Cell O8 searches for the text string "incorrect" in cells N8 through N20. If that text string appears in any one of the cell values (not formulas), then O8 directs the tester to test again. If the text string "incorrect" does not appear, then cell O8 reports that the test was successful, and the tester can proceed to the next test (exact same setup repeats).
My only problem is in the formula used for the last step. I have tried a few different formulas I know in cell 08, but none are giving me the results I'm looking for. The closest I have come is a successful search and validation based on the string being in the formula instead of in the value of the given cell.

I have a list of people on sheet 1, column A. The corresponding information for each person is listed across 5 columns in sheet B (cols A:E). **The row numbers are consistent throughout the sheets (ie. Joe is listed in Row 5 on sheet 1, and his name and info is listed in Row 5 cols A:E on sheet 2).
Name
June Sales
Sales Quota
YTD Sales
Total June Payout
Joe
$5000
$3000
$20,000
$4,000
Susan
$4500
$3500
$21,000
$4,000
What I want to do is to customize this weekly report for each person: Joe gets only HIS information emailed to him in a "template" that would be standard for each person (see below) -- the template would be the words in blue with the corresponding info, and this would be put directly into the BODY of the email
Name
June Sales
Sales Quota
YTD Sales
Total June Payout
Joe
$5000
$3000
$20,000
$4,000
This would be repeated for all people on the list (100+). I think I can figure out some email code, but it is getting the information into the SAME template for each person repeatedly (not sure how to write a loop for this including the template)

I'm trying to create an invoice with customer list, and the problem now is I'm trying to find a list-dependent data way to input my customer's address.
At the moment, all I can do is a dependent dropdowns from a sorted list (see method here). So it's kinda troublesome in such that my list (of customers) opens up a list for address that has only one option (since there's only one address for each customer).
I hope there's a method out there whereby I can have a list of customers, then select the customer I want, and the address of this particular customer will appear in another cell below automatically (without the need of selecting it in another list).
My address is actually split into three different cells - Address, Building & Postal Code.

I have created a spreadsheet that I must fill out daily. this worksheet has averages that must be automtically shared with a "master" worksheet.
for example
information from sheet2!b23
information from sheet3!b23
information from sheet4!b23
etc...
must automatically be transfered to
sheet1!c6
sheet1!c7
sheet1!c8
etc...
in that order
at this time I am typing in =sheet2!b23 on sheet1 everytime, I want to avoid this.
If you are asking yourself why? I dont blame you but it needs be this way so I can average each days spreadsheet.

I want the macro to:
1. search A1:AZ1 to find the cell that has the text "VBA Test" in the cell. There could be other text in the cell as well - this is not an exact match - but these two words are the common text.
2. go to that cell
3. go to one cell below that
4. enter a formula (I've got it from here ....)

I am trying to create a macro that will automatically fill in the days for a user if they fix the date. That is my end-goal, but obviously I have to take it step by step.
My first complication is how can I fill in all of the day rectangle boxes automatically? I was trying to create a macro for it, but it would only change the very first box. (You can see from my sheet, the days go 3 then 2)
After that I want to try and have constant-macro where if they change the month and the year it will automatically update the calendar for the user.

I use a system which produces excel spreadsheets similar to this example (although much larger than this!). This makes it extremely difficult to carry out sorts and to tidy up the spreadsheet - generally I have to do this manually. I am hoping that there is a way that I can easily add in the data as per document 2 in red.

I'm wondering if it is possible to make a table where I can just enter the reference number and excel can fill up the remaining cells with data specific to the reference number from a website. What I mean is that I would like to put in company registration number and hopefully it will be able to pull in other data from companies house website about the company.

I am not sure of what is it called, but I would like to be able to start typing in a cell and it to start giving me options until there is only one.
Right now I have 9 dynamic lists with anywhere from 5-20 names per list and I have a report form with multiple data validated drop down lists each pulling from a separate dynamic list. This works ok, but as the user tabs to a cell with the drop down, they must use the mouse to initiate the drop down and then select the right data. Even if the user types the right data into the cell, it will not pass validation. Is there a way to start typing and it to keep throwing away things until only one option is available and then be able to use the tab button to enter that data into the cell and move to the next cell? Or as another option how hard would it be to activate the drop down when the cell is selected and then use the arrow keys to select the right one and tab to the next cell? I would want to be able to tab through the cell if no information was needed from that dynamic list.

Any macro or a VB script to fill the numbers in between the "start" and "end" range . The only input that will be provided is the start and end of the range.
For example if the start = 100 000 and end = 100 010.
The output should be
100 000
100 001
100 002
100 003
100 004
100 005
100 006
100 007
100 008
100 009
100 010
