Formula That Give Figure Against The Name In Column
Jun 30, 2009
I’m looking for a formula that will give me a figure against the name in column A (name) while looking picking out a specific word within the column B, say "alarm"
So it reads
Alan Ingram 1

And so on...
See attached. This is a report that I have to do every month. I cant work out a formula for it. What I need is a formula that will pick out which is the largest Figure of column A,B,C,D for each row and put the corresponding header in column G. i have manually put these in. Would anyone know a formula i could use for this.
I'm trying to write a formula that searches for the name of the column on one sheet, finds that column on another, then results in the column letter. So, ideally, if the first three columns in the first tab were "Team," "Name," and "Total," respectively, I just want a formula to search for "Name" and give me back "B."
I want to do this in case anybody ever moves the "Name" column, for example, from column B to column C -- so then it would search for "Name" again and change the range in the formula to "C" because that's where that data lives now.
Currently, I'm using it for a COUNTIF() function that is a very simple: =countif(indirect("'"&$A2&"'!K:K"),$B2), where A2 is the sheet name. The latter half of $B2 is fine -- but I would love to have a more complicated formula take the place of the range "B:B" in case the "Name" column ever got moved.
I've got a spreadsheet with several rows and the numbers within those rows are totalled up at the bottom. Is there a way where i can highlight the cell within the spreadsheet and it takes it off the accumulative total at the bottom? or something similar to this effect? I just don't want to have to remove figures from this spreadsheet and highlighting will be a good way of seeing what has been done
I learnt that " " & can combine the text and figure. However, when it comes to a negative numbers, i dont know how to maneouver it. Eg, Cell A1 is USD(50,000.00) and the comment in Cell B1 is Cost is USD(50,000.00). So the function in B1 = "Cost is "& what to put here?
i have a figure of 1000 in cell a1. i want to divide it by a figure in cell b1 and have an answer in c1, or divide it by a figure in c1 and have an answer in b1.
in summary, cell a1 has i figure in it while cells b1 and c1 are empty until i enter a number into one or the other.
I have Column A to show the Project I am working on and Columns B-M show the months of the year with the figures under certain months. In Column N I just want to show where a figure falls under a certain month, I want Column N to show the month (header) that particular figure is under e.g. N2 should return a value of "March", N3 ro return a value "June" and N4 to return a value "April/September".
I have created a spreadsheet at work which is being used by a couple of people. One of the worksheets rounds off figures from a table in sheet1. My problem is that once I've set the spreadsheet up it seems to work fine.
But i opened it again and it displayed a random figure but the formula stated "=#N/A". I'm pretty sure all the computers are running the Addin correctly. Is there something I've left out?
I have around 500 csv files, each with four columns of data. However, the first column does not have a heading. Is there any way I can give the column name to the first column in each of 500 csv files? Here is one of the csv files:
When using the formula '=COLUMN()' in cell A1, it returns the number of the column - in this case, '1' (for column A). Is it possible to affect this formula so that it returns the column letter (in this case, 'A')?
I am trying to do something for a baseball game I am creating. What I am looking for is a formula for one cell that will basically give me a whole number when a certain criteria is met. I am also looking for this cell's formula to get part of it's formula from another cell in the document. So let's use cell A1 has 1.50 in it. I want this other cells formula to be able to give me a 9 if A1 is 0.00-1.50, a 8 if A1 is 1.51-2.79, 7 if A1 is 2.80-4.30, a 6 if A1 is 4.31-5.49 and 5 if A1 is 5.50-500.00.
I need a formula (or formulas) to give me the "coordinates" (Column & Row location) of a certain value in a large rectangular range. Intuitively this should be doable with a smart combination of VLOOKUP, HLOOKUP, INDEX, MATCH, ADDRESS and/or CELL functions (maybe in the form of "array formulas") but I can't seem to find the way...
Here is an example of what I need:
I have a large rectangular range (A10:F500), full of numerical values. Then in cell A1 I have one of the (many) values contained in the range, let's say, 3.14159. I need two formulas that give me the following:
a) A formula in cell B1 that tells me in which COLUMN of the range the value 3.14159 is located a) A formula in cell C1 that tells me in which ROW of the range the value 3.14159 is located
If the range consisted of a single column (or a single row), this would be an easy INDEX and MATCH combination.... but I'm dealing with a *rectangular* range here...
Attached is a spreadsheet that contains a list of Football teams (F) with corrasponding numbers next to them (E). In column A is a list of footballers and column B has a corrasponding number. WHat I want to be able to do is type in the footballers names in A and type a number next to them in B, in column C it would read off the corrasponding Team number and populate it with the team name. In the attached example I'll manually list the fist teams in B, i need a formula todo this for me. Probably quite simple.
Is there a lookup formula that will give me multiple items? so in my example attachment i want to look up risk from section A to give me the item in section B, but for risk 7 for example it has multiple items (a,b,c), how would i get all them? even better would be if its possible to have in seperate cells
i have =TIME(LEFT(F17,FIND("h",F17)-1),RIGHT(F17,2),0). which gives a time in the format 9:30PM, or 10:30AM etc. How would i change the formula to give me a time minus 15 mins. Eg, if the above formula gave me 8:45PM, i would want it to show 8:30PM
I know that I an probably asking for too much but I must get the formula some way. OK, I need a formula for this:
lets say I have 3 columns (A,B,C (search criteria). In each Column there is a DIFFERENT number. There is 3 more columns (D,E,F (used to compare).Each column has 3 Different numbers. If 3 numbers match between the two sets of 3 numbers I want Column G to display "CCC". IF 2 numbers match I want G to display "CCH". If 1 number is a match I want G to display "HHC". If none of the numbers match I want G to display "HHH".
I can manually do these but it will take waaaay toooooooooo much time to do. If you can do this for me it would be a great help indeed because I'm trying to do other states. With this formula I can use Automate to do a large quantity of numbers.
1. The example is cell B1 has a drop down list with the following options: MIN, MAX, AVERAGE, MEAN, SUM
The range F2:F20 hold the values upon which I want the formula to work
Cell B3 is to calculate the result of performing the the function defined in B1 over the data set in F2:F20
What formula do I need in B1. I have tried various of methods of forming the above into a text string and then preceding with INDIRECT but my problem seems to be with the range part.
2. Same as above but I want to the users to write as text (without equal sign) the formula they want to use
I have a spreadsheet, but I need the following formula to make our lives easier here.
I have the following columns:
Rate, I/T/P/S, FT/PT
I need a formula that when I enter "I" for Infant it will give me the FT (full time) or PT (part time) rate. All the columns have drop down menus, so if I choose "I" under the ITPS column and then choose FT, I want the formula to be able to give me the full time rate which is 157.94
If i use text to columns using comma as a separator, it does not give me the desired results when I have a text like "FAIRFIELD I&S - E PEORIA, IL". I want this display as "FAIRFIELD I&S - E PEORIA, IL". But if i use this feature, I get "FAIRFIELD I&S - E PEORIA" in one column and "IL" in another column. Ideally I want it to show "FAIRFIELD I&S - E PEORIA, IL" in a single column.
I need a formula to give me a MIN or MAX value only if there is a number greater than 0 in the cell AND not alphabetical letters (as some cells do contain). I need it to return the value for that cell across about ten sheets--I have that part figured out (I think). But I keep getting a #Ref error.
