Creating Compact Text List After Comparing List Against Two Variables

May 8, 2014

I would like to be able to compare the "standards" in Column A with the Assessment status in Column B and the Assessment period in Column C in order to generate a compact list in another workbook (ideally) or tab (if not). A list might typically contain all the standards that have been M (mastered) during a given Assessment period. I realize that filters would achieve this to a large extent but I was hoping to automatically populate another worksheet or tab.

Mar 28, 2009

refer to the attached workbook for reference. I am looking for a function in Sheet1, Column E that will search for the value of Sheet1, Column A within Sheet2, Column A. When a match is found, the function should look across Sheet2, Columns B - V for values of 1. When such values are found, the function should return the associated value from Sheet2, Row 2. There may be multiple values of 1, and as such, the function should separate values with a comma.

Check If Text String In Cell With Other Text Is In List

Mar 27, 2008

I have a sheet in which some of the cells have two strings separated by a linefeed. I have come up with a cumbersome formula which will let me check if either of the two strings is a member of a list stored on another sheet. However, it fails if there is only one string in the cell, presumably as there is no linefeed for the formula to find. How can I modify the formula to cope with this situation?

There are also on occasions, three strings in the cell, but I can't seem to access the middle string with the formula. Simplified spreadsheet attached to show the problem. This must be formula-based, as we have a no VBA policy. If you think there is better way of doing this, please let me know.

Make A List Of Text From A Range Of Text

Dec 17, 2009

I have a range that contains text. Let's say the range is colums $F:$M. There is x rows and in each cell there is either nothing or a word, let's call it "dummy". There is just a certain amount of "dummies", such as "dummy a", "dummy b" and so on, let's assume ten different dummies. It can also happen that "dummy c" or any other dummy appears more than once in those colums.

What I want Excel to do, is looking up columns $F:$M and make a list (possibly sorted) that includes all the entries from columns $F:$M, but each one only once and no blanks. Can I do this and if, how?

Identifying Phrase In A Text List

May 14, 2014

I have a cell with a long list of phrases all separated by commas.

So it would appear, chicken, beef, steak, soup, fish

I want to create a rule in a cell to identify if one of those phrases comes up - so if chicken comes up then a 1 would appear.

To make it interesting is it possible to grab two words from the cell, so grab the words chicken and beef from a mass of words in one cell and bring it across.

I have these cells which contain huge amount of text and preferences and I am looking to identify these entities on if they contain these words.

Increment Text List As Dragged Down

Nov 13, 2006

I am trying to find a short way of creating a list using the drag down tool. Normally this isn't a problem when the numbers are at the end of the data, however they are in the middle so the drag down tool does not like it and will only copy the same data into the cells below.

Eg. the list I am creating goes as follows:

Dicso 80Gb: Cyber Records Barcodes: CR 001. ai
Disco 80Gb: Cyber Records Barcodes: CR 002.ai
Disco 80Gb: Cyber Records Barcodes: CR 003.ai

...and so on.

How do I create the formula to recognise that I want the number within the text to increase by 1 each time?

Search Against A List Of Text Strings

Dec 13, 2007

Need to do (preferrably as a UDF so I can call it many times and build the macro I really need) the following string testing macro. For a given column (B) - look to the field immediately to the left for a text string. This string will be searched for a list of other strings contained in Column D ( cells D1:D5). We want a case insenstive SEARCH (or find I suppose in macro terms) to return a true if the strings are found or false if it is not. Example test string in cell B1 would be:

I am a string of test data to check.

Terms in D1:D5 might be:
dog
cat
bird
data
fowl

Cell B1 should return a TRUE as a match.

Excluding Text Inputs For Attendance List

Jul 29, 2014

I'm making an attendance list that calculates regular hour and overtime hours for days in a month on rows. Besides the number of hours, there's input for v and s, which stand for vacations and sick days. I'm using the "if" function to separate hour and overtime, and when I put v or s in a cell it messes up my totals. Is there a way to make it so that the cells with v or s don't affect my other columns?

Checking Text In Cells Against List Of Possible Words?

Dec 27, 2013

I'm trying to make a game where from a choice of 16 words the contestant has to choose four of those words that, when another word is placed before or after each word it makes a phrase.

e.g From this list of 16 words
albert
bell

[Code]....

choosing bell, bottle, print, stocking can all have BLUE placed before them to make bluebottle, blueprint etc. That would be the correct answer. Choosing their four words would be from a drop down list of all 16 words, separate cell for each list options/chosen answer. bell bottle printstockingCORRECT

There would be 4 rows in total for 4 different answers to be made from the 16 words on offer. I have tried everything to get it to work in the 5th cell but it's difficult.

Text To Number Conversion In Validation List!

Dec 3, 2007

I have 2 sheets;

Sheet1 (Also named "TicketNames") and Sheet 2 ("Day1").
On TicketNames I have 4 Columns the first 3 columns with about 5 names per columns.
Each list of five are given a specific Name ("One","Two","Three"). The last column is just
a list for Day1 dropdown menu. (3 names, "One", "Two", "Three").

On Day1, I have a validation list on A1 which will allow the user to select either ("One, Two or Three").

On B1, another dropdown menu, but it will only show the items related to the selection they made on A1.

My problem is that on A1, instead of having "One" show up, I want it to say "$1" for One dollar. But because it is a number not a text it won't allow me to use a validation list using this.

I'm using Excel 2007
