steve jones 10
tom jones 15

i would like to be able to do a vlookup on another tab of that information and just import everything except ( ) and the contents

Adding Dim'd Variables: Ignoring Strings & Adding Number

Jan 13, 2007

I've got a problem involving several Dim'd Variables needing to be added up, they're all Dim'd as Variants though as they can be either strings or numbers at any time.

I need a formula (VBA) to add them up (to add their actual numeric values - not just a "1" if they contain a number) and ignore them all together if they contain string values.

Finding Strings In VLookup Value - Embedded In Larger Strings Within Table Array

Dec 20, 2012

I need to do a vlookup that takes a string from one cell and then tries to find that string (embedded in a larger string) in the table array

Essentially I imagine this involves the FIND function at some point.

Attached is an incredibly simplified example of what I'm looking for.

Ignoring Characters While Formula Looks For Value?

Apr 16, 2014

I have stacked formulas that look for values via vlookup and index match functions.

Sometimes the worksheet will have ( 100 ) separated into 3 columns (open parenthesis, number, closed parenthesis) and the formula will pull the first column containing the parenthesis. How can I write the formula to ignore the "(" and get to the "100"?

The formula uses ISERROR to move forward, could I incorporate ISNUMBER also or is there a better way to do this?

Average Ignoring Holidays

Jan 11, 2009

If I have a formula which adds the value of each day of the week and divides by 7 to get an average per day, how do i fix it to get an average if their is a holiday so their would only be 6 days without changing the formula as the holidays could change from week to week by province.
=(a+b+c+d+e+f+g)/7 what happens if "e" is a holiday and I need to divide by 6, or in the case of xmas if "d and e" are holidays and I need to divide by 5?

Ignoring The #DIV/0! Error In A Range

Mar 1, 2009

I'm trying to average a column range range =AVERAGE(A5:A29) that has blank cells not yet populated and also cells with formulas that contain the #DIV/0! error.

Obviously the cell with my formula produces the #DIV/0! error when it tries to average this range. Can someone point me in the right direction so the formula =AVERAGE(A5:A29) will work?

Using =MODE And Ignoring Zeros

Nov 3, 2009

I need a formula that will find the mode from a range of numbers but ignore the 0's. I have worked out the below array formula which seems to work.

{=IF(MODE(IF(N18:P25>0,N18:P25))=1,"Low",IF(MODE(IF(N18:P25>0,N18:P25))=2,"Secure",IF(MODE(IF(N18:P2 5>0,N18:P25))=3,"High")))}

The only thing is, if only one cell contains a number other than 0 (eg. 1,2 or 3) then it returns #N/A. Ideally i'd like it to show the appropriate response for the number that is in the number range. For example - if one cell shows the number 2 and the rest are 0's, i'd like it to show Secure(the response for 2) rather than #N/A.

Ignoring Zero Values On Graph

Feb 19, 2010

I have a line graph that charts certain data per day in a month.

During the weekend there is no data. The graph however considers the number as zero, and I want it to just "skip" that day and plot the line directly from the friday date to the monday, instead of the line touching zero on saturday's and sundays.

Is it possible to do this? Or am I forced to adapt my table to only include days of the week?

Ignoring Sheets If There Is No Data?

Feb 5, 2014

I've recorded some macros for completing formatting tasks and I'd like to know if there is a way of asking the macro to ignore sheets if there is no data.

The files are reports we export from our accounting system and they need to be tidied up, named and sorted. It's the sorting and subtotalling that is causing an issue because not every department has transactions every month. I'd like the macro to skip over sheets with no transactions and continue on.

Combobox Ignoring Duplicates?

Apr 23, 2014

I have a combo box with a list of vendors. The problem is that a vendor can appear more than once. The list of vendors is dynamic so new vendors can be added and still appear in the combo box but how can I get the combox box list to only recognize the vendor name once so I don't have multiple duplicate vendors showing in the list?

In my spreadsheet, I have a formula that extract to other column only non duplicates, then I want this information in other column sort by the lowest number but without the zero.

Column A, all numbers extracted
Column B, all non duplicates, where normally we have one zero.

I want the result from Column B in other sheet like that:

SheetB, Column A, RowX: 618;635;637;663.

SUM Last 6 Cells With Data (ignoring Blanks In Between)

Aug 8, 2014

I want to count back the last 6 cells in column S which has data (ignoring any blank cells) and add them up.

My data is ranging betwen S62:S143 (with S144 being the cell that I want to show the total for the last 6 cells with data). I have column headings and various other bits of data from S1:S61 that I want to exclude completely but need to keep for historical purposes.

Here is an example of some of the data in column S:

56
BLANK CELL
BLANK CELL
BLANK CELL
45
34
BLANK CELL
BLANK CELL
37
BLANK CELL
BLANK CELL
42
BLANK CELL
46
49
BLANK CELL
BLANK CELL
36
35

This is my formula so far:

=SUM(OFFSET(S62,0,0,COUNTA(S62:S143)))

I have tried adding a negative and positive number on the end of the COUNTA formula but all it does is count all the cells within that given heigh range, not a specific number of cells with data.

I don't specifically need to use SUM. As long as I get a total.

Linking And Ignoring In Excel Graph

Dec 29, 2006

I have two issues with an excel graph to automate it.

My first problem is that I have to manually select the source data when the data changes inside my spreadsheet. I have 35 slots that represent a 5 week period. Because the first day of the month does not always start on the first day of the week, I have to allow the extra 5 slots in my template. I have the cells set to show blank when there is no data entered in certain cells. Therefore, only days that the machine is up gets put into the 35 cell table. When I do this, the blank cells show up as 0 on the graph and it skews the line. I need some solution that will allow me to tell the graph to ignore zeros.

The second issue is the title in my graph. I have a set title, but need it to pull "Month Year" and "c81" from the worksheet it is on. I cannot seem to get it to populate automatically in the label. I would like it to look like the following:

614 Machine Uptime Percentage
%Month Year%
MTD PCT (%c81%)

where the %name% is the automatically populated item. I don't necessarily have a problem with hiding a cell and linking the label to that cell inside the graph, but I need it to change those two items automatically.

Im certain that a resolution to both of these items exist and I am certain it is an easy thing that I will be kicking myself in the rear over once I find out the resolution, but I need to get this done and im tired of wasting time. I hope this makes sense. If you need me to post an excel file as an example, I will be more than happy to.

Counting Cells And Ignoring References

Aug 20, 2009

I have a range of cells (B6:M6) and I want to count how many have data. My problem is that all of the cells reference cells on another worksheet. Every cell starts out like =Bethlehem!B6. I want to ignore cells that have a reference in it when I count. I know how to do it if you want to ignore these cells as follows: =countif(b6:m6,"<> 0"). Those cell references return a 0 if they have no data in them. However, a user might actually enter a 0 in the referenced cell and I need to count that one. The above formula would exclude it.

Ignoring Weekends & Holidays - NETWORKDAYS

Dec 14, 2005

I have a schedule of holiday dates through year 2010 off to the side in cells N8-S18 that a workable formula could refer to.

........C...................D..................... ......E.........
1......1............10/25/2005...........10/26/2005
2......2............10/27/2005...........10/29/2005
3......0............10/29/2005...........10/29/2005
4......3............10/29/2005...........11/01/2005

Column C is the duration of the project in days. Column D is the project start date. Column E is the project end date.

As example, in D4 I'm using the formula =IF(C3=0,E3+0,E3+1). I need to include something to make it ignore weekends & holidays.

I don't have much experience in multiple conditions - I tried some things & made a decent mess of it.
