Finding Sheet That Matches A Cell Value

Jun 12, 2008

I have worked on the code – with as limited knowledge as I possess – to perhaps communicate my intention. I know for a fact that in the code below there are 2 problematic lines – and herein lies the root of my problem. The first line is: “Dim Day As String” In Debugger speak, I am told that this cannot be done along with “Set sh = Worksheets(Day.Value)”. However, in normal speak, I am trying to copy data from one sheet to another. When pasting the data on the second sheet, I am trying to make the code find the appropriate sheet that matches a Day value in Cell I5. Getting the code to execute this one action is proving to be particularly difficult. I am thankful for any suggestion on how to get the code to work correctly.

Finding Exact Matches Using Vlookup

Jul 24, 2006

I am getting #N/A errors even when I have an apparently exact match in my
table array to the lookup value. I know that excel requires the formats to
be exactly the same and I can force the match if I copy the lookup value from
my table array and paste it into the worksheet. Is there an easy way to
"fix" my table array. The table array is a reference worksheet I have
created which has worked in the past.

Finding Matches And Adding Additional Data

Mar 17, 2014

Sheet 2 in the attached sample workbook (without all the pre-existing formula's from the original) contains data that I paste in (Cols A to D).

Sheet 1 then searches that data (minus Col D) from Sheet 2 and returns "Yes" to Col I if matching data is found.

What I would like to do now is if Sheet 1 returns "Yes" then the corresponding value from Sheet 2 would be returned to Sheet 1 Col J.

So in this example the value "5" would be returned to Sheet 1 Cell J1

I already have all the formulas in place to find the matches and return "Yes", this is just to return the additional information from Col D Sheet 2 to Sheet 1 Col J..

Finding Text That Matches Format Criteria In String?

Oct 3, 2011

I'm trying to restructure a list of files at work into a format that makes some sort of sense and can be filtered into useful information.

Part of what I need to do, is match up all the drawing numbers that a certain project references. The numbers are formatted like "####A##" ex. 1234A01,1234A02,5678A01, etc. The cells that I need to extract drawing numbers from contain some description or other text (not just the drawing number) so I need to extract the drawing number from that cells value. (Ex. I need to get the drawing number 1234A01 from a cell whose value is "blah blah 1234A01 blah blah blah")

I was thinking I could just search the string for "####A##" but I'm not really sure how....I tried instr, but I think its searching for the literal value of "####A##" rather than treating the # characters as wildcards...

I tried:

Code:
if rngNames.Cells(intx, 2).Value Like ("*####A##*") then
set intStart = instr(1,rngnames.Cells(intx,2).value,"####A##")
'....
end if
but intStart remains 0, so this method is not working...

Finding Matches Between Two Sets Of Data - Each Set Has Three Columns Of Data

Jul 13, 2013

I am working on large sets of data (more than 50,000 rows of data). I have two sets of data. Set 1 and Set 2 (master data) on the same worksheet. Both the sets of data have three columns each. I am using EXCEL 2007. I was able to accomplish step 1 below.. but I am totally lost with step 2 since i have an additional criteria for the "year".

I have attached the excel sheet as well. This is what I am trying to accomplish:

1) I want to find exact matches in set 1 and set 2 and highlight it or do something to show that a match was found. The challenge is the data in set 1 can occur anywhere in set 2.

2) Add to the complication .. my criteria for matching the year is different. If the Set 1 "year" is equal to or greater by 1 yr or greater by 2 yr when compared to Set 2 "year", I want to treat it as a "match".

For example, from the data attached:

Set 1 data in row 4 is: ATLANTIC ABSECON 2004
Set 2 data in row 3 is: ATLANTIC ABSECON 2003

I want to treat these two data as "MATCH" since ATLANTIC matches ATLANTIC, ABSECON matches ABSECON and according to one of my criteria for year, Set 1 "year" is greater by 1 yr than the Set 2 "year".

Finding Matches From Column B Within Column A

Apr 6, 2012

Here is what I am trying to accomplish.

I have to columns.

I have copied column A from a PDF file. It contains entries like this, all in the same column:

5 0.002HP Direct- 26845 7/1959 Airesearch

This column contains an ID # (5), a description (0.002HP Direct), a part # (26845), a date (7/1959), and a manufacturer (Airesearch). All this info is in one column. This column is 11,000+ entries long.

I have column B which is 45,000+ entries long, and contains ONLY part numbers, like this:

325111

I would like to compare column B to find the matching results from within the text of column A, and put these matches into column C.

Return Matches & Non-Matches From Delimited Cells Against List Range

Jan 29, 2010

In my spreadsheet, on the first worksheet called "Working". Column A, called "Results", contains carrot ^ delineated string values in each cell (i.e."john^apple^pear^banana^grape^love^heart^pickle"). The majority of string values in every cell in my "Results" column match a "source" column of Pick-List Values, called "Fruits" in the same spreadsheet, however found in a different worksheet called "Lists" (also in Column A). I want to perform 3 functions against my "Results" Column on worksheet "Working":

1.) Report In Column B: Analyze column "Results" by cell and return carrot delineated string values for only those that match my "Fruits" Pick-List

2.) Report In Column C: Analyze column "Results" by cell and return carrot delineated string values for only those do not match my "Fruits" Pick-List

3.) Report In Column D: Identify and return all unique values in "Column C" as a List.

Attached is a simple example of what I'm trying to accomplish called " Sorting.xls"

How To Display Datasets

Apr 9, 2014

I have a spreadsheet that lists users plus 4 columns of data horizontally and other data vertically. See image forum_sheet.png

My problem is the sheet is getting wider and wider as users are added. What I would like to be able to do is have a dropdown or something that allows me to select a users name which would then display their data set [ four columns ] on its own. I have tried validating a dropdown list but this only works on a single column.

Joining Two Datasets Together (VBA Needed?)

Jun 19, 2014

So I have two sets of data, I've attached a worksheet which has them both. The datasets have different intervals, but I need to drag "Colour" from Data2 into Data1 and associate it with the correct interval. Sometimes the intervals match up and sometimes they don't - which could be a problem, but as long as its within a small spread it's fine. The "Colour" column in Data1 is filled with my desired result, the source being Data2.

Binning Function For Datasets?

Jul 24, 2014

I have several data sets taken from an instrument recording the same sample. The data are noisy so I would like to average them. Annoyingly, the operating software for the instrument allows you to specify start and end values, but not the amount of points in between (unbelievable, I know). I therefore have data which looks like:

25, 1
25.1, 5
25.6, 7
25.8, 10
25.9, 12

and

25.1, 1
25.4, 4
25.7, 6
25.9, 14

So each replicate has a different sampling rate (the data set is much larger than the example above though). Is there any built-in Excel function to standardize these data to a fixed amount of x values, and perhaps averaging both the X and Y values of all points within the bin?

Splitting Datasets Into 5 Buckets?

May 30, 2014

If I have ten numbers which I would like to split into 5 buckets (1,2,3,4,5) how can I best achieve this?

A trivial example:-

The series 12, 12, 18, 18, 25, 25, 34, 34, 40, 40 would neatly spilt into 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5.

Similarly

The series 12, 13, 18, 19, 25, 27, 33, 34, 40, 41 would neatly spilt into 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5.

A non-trivial example

The series 12, 13, 40, 41, 42, 50, 70, 71, 89, 90, 91 I would like to be split into 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5.

So groupings are based on how close consecutive numbers are to each other and there must be at least one value in each bucket (1,2,3,4,5). The number of data items can vary form 5 to, say 20 or so.

2 Datasets - Cannot Copy Columns

Jun 23, 2014

I have 2 datasets. 1 of them is 5103 lines and other one is 5121. They contain the samde data but as you can see one of the dataset have 18 more lines than the other. Because of this I can not copy a columns from one dataset to other because the values will not match with the correct ones because of the line differences. How can i compare for different rows or how can i copy at least the 5103 line correctly and than fill other 18 by hand ?

Filtering / Separating Specific Datasets?

Jul 10, 2014

All of the strings are in one column and are in General format. They contain a few different types of strings: some only numbers, some numbers separated by commas (which makes them NOT numbers according to ISNUMBER), some text only, some text and numbers (separated by comma), some are 3 numbers, each separated by comma, etc.

ldJBlt9.jpg

What I'm looking to do:I want each of these distinct types filtered out someway. I've already done ISNUMBER to filter out the values which are numbers only, no commas. Perfect.

For the next step, I'd like to filter out cells which have only numbers and commas. The comma itself makes them considered not numbers, so how do I add the condition that I'm looking for cells with digits and a comma? A wildcard?

Edit: I've found the following formula which can check if it contains a comma, but doesn't specify between digits or text. Just commas. =IF(ISNUMBER(FIND(",",A1)),"TRUE","FALSE")

Pivot Table With Multiple Datasets?

Mar 12, 2012

I have a list of people whose direct reports have either completed or not completed a task at work, and there are four tasks. The records look like this (I've removed the direct report's name, which is to the left):

Manager NameTask 1Task 2Task 3Task 4Mickey SmithCompleteCompleteCompleteCompleteDanny Ledbetter
IncompleteIncompleteCompleteCompleteDanny LedbetterCompleteCompleteCompleteIncompleteMickey SmithCompleteCompleteCompleteIncompleteMickey SmithCompleteCompleteCompleteIncompleteMickey SmithIncompleteCompleteCompleteIncompleteDanny LedbetterCompleteCompleteCompleteComplete

I want to pivot the data so that for each manager I can see the % who completed Task 1, the % who completed Task 2, etc. preferrably in a horizontal format.

So, I can get this easy enough for the first task:

Count of Task 1Column LabelsRow LabelsCompleteIncompleteGroup 1Danny Ledbetter67%33%Mickey Smith75%25%

However to the right of this I want the results for Task 2, 3, and 4. The best I can do is the following:

Column LabelsCompleteIncompleteRow LabelsCount of Task 1Count of Task 2Count of Task 1Count of Task 2Danny Ledbetter67%67%33%33%Mickey Smith75%75%25%25%Grand Total71%71%29%29%

The results for Task 2 are incorrect. I've tried % of Row, % of Parent Row, and all the other calculations, and can't seem to get it. I've also tried putting the fields in the Column Labels box, the Values Box, etc.

I can even get this if I put the SumValues field in the Row Labels, which yields a vertical result, but still, the values are incorrect (Mickey has 100% completion under Task 2):

Column LabelsRow LabelsCompleteIncompleteDanny LedbetterCount of Task 167%33%Count of Task 267%33%Mickey SmithCount of Task 175%25%Count of Task 275%25%Total Count of Task 171%29%Total Count of Task 271%29%

Determine Cell Row Range For Datasets?

Mar 9, 2013

I have a large collection of datasets, sorted/grouped by rows. I need to perform some calculations against these SETS (Ave, Low, Median, etc.).

The number of member in each SET is variable (1 to NN), the number of SET Members is included in the data. Example:

Code:
3 Data Sets:
Row Set Members Price Ave
1 A 4 $1.00
2 A 4 $1.25
3 A 4 $1.50
4 A 4 $1.75
5 B 1 $4.00
6 C 3 $10.45
7 C 3 $14.50
8 C 3 $17.75

how to compute the AVE value for each SET above?

I am thinking if I can determine the FIRST Row number for each set, add the MemberQty as an ~offset to determine the LAST Row, then use an Indirect reference to compute the ave, something like:

=AVERAGE(INDIRECT("D"&A1&":D"&A1+C1)) The SET's Ave value should be added to EACH row in each SET.

I am struggling trying to point a formula like this to the First Row of the NEXT set.

the list can contain more than 10000 users and i want to be able to switch 2 users using a listbox/filter/ validation list.

there can be multiple users with the same name even company so a simple validation list which is limited to 1 column will not suffice. the interface for the switch should be fool proof so anyone can switch 2 users.

I got information, that matching class properties of Worksheetfunction is impossible.
This is my first experience with macro's and I hardly know how to deal with this problem.I got some excel file from my friend and tried to do this in the same way.
Macro was supposed to calculate the Pearson's coefficient of correlation for orders from 1 to 100 of autocorrelation in order to calculate Q Box-Pierce statistic.Data is prices of stocks for some bank and correlation coefficient is calculated for simple returns on stocks.
