How to find a particular cell value, example: i have sheet and in that we have 30 employee names and i need to map the data of work from home, which is in dark bule color and need to make a total of it. rather than counting the all the sheet details from month start till end. I need to find it in a quick shot.
I would like to prepare a shift schedule for 3 months it should be a automated.
Looking for a formula (not macro) that can do the following:
I have a spreadsheet and in one column, it has last names of clients. In the next column, it has full names of clients that are the same account, but different system with different descriptions for the name. I need to lookup the column that just has last name and see if that last name exist anywhere in the "Full name" column. If it does, then I need column C to say "Yes" or something along those lines.
The "full name" column isn't always in the same format and sometimes doesn't even contain the "last name." Sometimes the last name will be first and sometimes there's a comma and sometimes there isn't a comma. The spreadsheet attached shows a good short example of what I'm working with...

I am creating a macro to automate data analysis for work, but I've become stuck.
I need to find the coordinate of the first cell in a column with word "reserved" or "extended" contained in the cell, and then assign the row number of that coordinate as a variable to use for moving data around. Basically, I want something like VLOOKUP, but instead of returning a value, I want it to return the coordinate.
Macros question - The user enters a word, e.g. Malaysia in a particular cell (always the same location) and I want the macro to be able to find the next cell with that word in it, but it appears that when using macros you can't paste anything into the find function, so was just wondering what to do!
View 1 Replies View RelatedOk, I've come close to the solution using the Match function, but somehow just can't quite nail it.
What I need is a formula that will search down Column B until it finds the first blank cell. Then report what is directly to the left of that cell.
So If the first blank cell is in $B$5, it will report what is in $A$5.
I have another post here on this forum, but I'm afaid the formula is getting so complex that nobody is able to fully understand what I want. Instead I want to find a value between two numbers and add it to some IF sentences. It will do what I want, even if it's not that elegant.
I've looked at the SUMIF function but it did not do exactly what I wanted. It finds a number or adds numbers only if they are in range it seems.
What I want is the following:
Return sum between 500 and 1000 in one cell.
I am trying to extract text from one cell into another, for example if in cell A2 I have text " {Operating System Issue} ~Word~ I got a new PC i used to have avaya…" in cell b2 i want {Operating System Issue} and in Cell c2 I want ~Word~.
This is what i am doing, in Cell B2 in putting formulla as =MID($A2,FIND("{",$A2,1),FIND("}",$A2,1)) and in cell C2 i am putting formulla as =MID($A2,FIND("~",$A2,1),FIND("~",$A2,1)). However in cell C2 thsi si what I am getting
~Word~ I got a new PC i used
i dont want anything after "~" sign. What i need is only the text that is in betwwen "~" sign.
I have to copy and paste some datas under anothers but I don't know the code to do so; I mean, the code to paste on the first empty cell under the previously used cell.
View 12 Replies View RelatedI have data entered in rows 2:10. The amount of data is variable for each row. For example, in row 2, columns A:F are filled out, and the rest (G:P) are blank. In row 3, columns A:J are filled out and K:P are blank. The data is always entered from left to right, and to a maximum up to column P. Hope this makes sense.
In column Q, I want to write a formula that will tell me the last filled column of that row (A=1, B=2, C=3, etc.). So in Q2 would display 6. Row 3 would display 10. And so on.

I have a worksheet where I need to start at c1 and move down col c until I get to a cell containing text. The left 6 characters will be "budget".
Not sure what the code would be for that.
assist me with editing this code so that even though my range may be set from A1:A3000 it would stop after finding and completing its task in the last cell in column A with data. This code will put dashes in a set of numbers and there is no certain amount of account numbers that could end up being in column A on any given month.

I've got a spreadsheet where column A has dates and time and column C has over 8000 rows of numbers.
I'm looking to pull the date and time from column A associated with a value in column C...
how do i do a "lookup" in this case?
I have a simple problem and I'm sure someone out there has the simple answer i'm looking for. Here's my problem:
I have a column of cells with data in them (no formulas, just "hand-written" data). I would like to find the last cell in the column that has data, but without using VBA.
I tried to find help, and I thought I might be able to use the LOOKUP formula, but since I never used it before, I kinda hit a wall... is there any other formulas that might do the job? or do I absolutely have to use VBA?
After I find the last cell with data, I will use it in another formula in another cell... nothing too complicated, but I need (if possible) the data in the cell to be returned to the other cell for the other formula.
how to simply find out what the active cell is (This would be the cell the curser is currently in). It is already displayed in the Name Box on the menu in Excel, but I can't find a way to access this data automatically.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to do a search and delete in Excel 2007 and I'm having a great deal of difficulty trying to do this. I've attempted to modify some code I found on the internet and not having very good luck with it. Here is the scenario, I've got a spreadsheet with 5 columns (A to E). In column C, there is a product name with certain identifiers that set it apart. An example of this product name with identifier is "product XXX_type 2_attribute ". I want to search for "type 2" in Column C of each row and then delete the row.
Here is what I have written so far and I'm not having any luck.
Sub RowDel()
Dim cell As Range
For Each cell In Range(Range("c4"), _
Range("c65536").End(xlUp))
If cell = "_GPnl_" Then
Range(cell, _
Cells(Rows.Count, 1)).EntireRow.Delete
Exit For
End If
Next cell
End Sub
Sub Test2()
'From the top down
If IsEmpty(Range("A1")) Then
Range("A1").Select
Else
Range("A1").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select
End If
End Sub
I would like to change this to find the first non-numeric cell (technically the column i'm searching is dates, but i assume those are seen as being numerical). I tried to change this line:
If IsEmpty(Range("A1")) Then
TO
If IsNumeric(Range("A1")) Then
But as many of you know it didn't work (i also tried variations of IsNumeric(Range("A1")).Value=True
i am trying to find the location of the current cell and use the information to print it to screen. For example, if the cell A1 is selected, i need to get the location A1 and use this value for a vlookup. is there a method that returns the current cell location "A1"??

I have a worksheet where column A is a list of numbers and Row 1 is a different list of numbers

After searching the forum, I thought I'd found the solution to pasting in the next empty row. I have a macro in one workbook (well, there's 17 of them!) that selects a specific sheet's UsedRange - less the heading row - and copies it (this works). I then switch to the master workbook and click another button to paste the data; the macro finds the correct sheet and pastes the data (1000 records) but when I paste data from the next workbook, it starts at A1 instead of ws. Range("A" & (LastRowA + 1)).
Sub PasteRCdata()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim LastRowRec As Long
Set ws = ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("data1")
LastRowRec = ws.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
On Error Resume Next
ws.Range("A" & (LastRowA + 1)).PasteSpecial xlValues
LastRowRec = 0
Application.CutCopyMode = False
End Sub
Here's the code that copies
Dim rng As Range
'code here to select the correct sheet
Set rng = ActiveSheet.UsedRange
rng.Offset(1, 0).Resize(rng.Rows.Count - 1, _
rng.Columns.Count).Copy
I want to use VBA to find the first empty cell in a colum. But I want VBA to start look for this empty cell after cell B10 and not from the top of the colum. I also want that the VBA stop looking after cell B20. The last part I already have (see below) but I don't know how to have VBA to start the search in cell B10 and not in the top.
Range("B20").End(xlUp).Offset(1#).Value = Range("C1").Value
I am trying to find the first empty cell in a column to paste values. I have read the FAQ and searched the forums but every solution seems to fail me! I have tried the ...xlup, xldown, loops, For , IF statements, etc. to no avail.
My column has the first Four Rows empty with some Header rows in Row 6. I want to paste starting on Row 7. The most success I have had is finding the first empty cell and pasting a value but every subsequent attempt to find the next empty cell and paste a value just keeps pasting on the same cell found in the first attempt. Below is my most recent attempt. I am using MS-Office 2003 (or is there some special worksheet setting that prevents this from working?)
Sub My_Finder()
Dim cP1 As Range
Dim M As Integer
Dim Task As Range
Dim MyRange As Range
Worksheets("Weeks2").Activate

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm setting up an Excel (2000) sheet to record the results of a competition at my local photographic society. I'm trying to make it as simple as possible to fill out by the people using it, so have shaded the cells that require the user to put data in. I'll post a screenshot of the sheet, which is named "DPI", to make it easier:
(EDIT) screenshot removed - see attached file in post #3 below instead
I use one row for each member entering the competition. Each member can submit up to three photographs for judging. The names in B5:B30 are tied to the member number in A5:A30, and pulled in with VLOOKUP from a separate sheet containing all the club's members. The names in this example are, obviously, fakes. ;-)
The three blocks are to enter the image titles and associated scores. I have a range called "scores" which is defined as =DPI!$D$5:$D$30,DPI!$G$5:$G$30,DPI!$J$5:$J$30
The rank columns are simply calculated using the RANK function. E.g. the formula in E5 is =IF(ISBLANK(A5),"",RANK(D5,scores,0))
The cells at the top are calculated using the LARGE function upon the defined range "scores" (although they could equally use the SMALL function on the rank columsn instead).
The bit I'm stuck at is what I want it to say along the top. eg: "Leg 1 Winner: 30 is {insert image title} by {insert member name}"
Using the winner as an example, I want to take the winning score shown in D1, find it in the named array "scores", and return the image title to the left of it. Obviously I can't use VLOOKUP as the data is to the left of the lookup value as well as being in multiple columns. I wanted to use OFFSET to return the value of the column to the left, but to do that I need to pick up the reference of the cell containing "30" i.e. the winning score shown in cell D1.
How can I find this cell reference? Or is there a better way? I thought about the old MATCH/INDEX function, but INDEX doesn't seem to work very well with data in non-contiguous arrays as I'd have to specify which block to look in.
Once I can get the image title returned I hopefully sholdn't have any bother extending it to return the member name from a fixed column, but I can't figure out how to get the reference of the cells in the "scores" array that contain the winning scores shown in D1, D2 and D3.
I am trying to create a cell that show the value of all specified rows with specific name.
For example:
Apples $2 $5 $10
Oranges $5 $10 $50
Apples $5 $ 6 $ 60
(each of these will be in their own cells, 3 rows and 4 columns)
How do I create a cell that will sum the total value of all the Apples by using Apples as the variable?
I putting together a spreadsheet that applies Payments (as they come in) against the oldest open invoice. As payments come in, old invoices are closed out. An aging is done and late fees are applied.
I have made a macro that inputs all of the information of the invoice in a list. However, when a payment comes in, I am trying to write a macro that:
1) in column G - Finds the first non-zero balance
2) Applies the payment amount to that open invoice. If there is additional funds left over after the satisfaction of that invoice, I would like the payment to be applied to the next open invoice until all the funds of the payment have been drained.
I am having so much trouble trying to even just locate the first nonzero balance and select it.
