Lookup For A Cell Value In Entire Sheet And Return Value From A Column
Apr 22, 2014
I have a sheet with Customer name in the first column and next 7 columns have unique serial numbers(alphanumeric) of the systems which that customer has purchased. In another sheet, i have the unique serial number in first column and I want to search this number in the 7 columns of other sheet and return the "Customer name" to this sheet. How do I do that ?
Vlookup searches only in 1 columns, so does match index. lookup didn't work as well.
how do I search the whole text of one cell in a particular column to another cell in a different column? I then want to return the full contents of the cell that contains the text I want to find. Ie. if I want to search the text "fidelity", cell A1 in column B which contains a cell with text "fidelity asset management". I want to return fielity asset management.
Essentially, sheet b is a list of 900 people I need to mail to. Sheet a has 3000 rows of people, many of whom don't need the mailing. It has mailing addresses that we need in sheet b.
We have two worksheets, sheet a and sheet b
compare sheet b, column c (email addresses) to sheet a, column x, (email addresses). If they match, move sheet a, columns d, e, f, g, and h to sheet b.
I've been searching the forums for this problem but I can't seem to find any answers. Anyway, this is the problem. See screenshot.
I want to compare A1 for the values in column B, then return the corresponding cell (column C) in column D. e.g. D1 = 2, D2 = 1, D3 = 4, D4 = 5 and D5 = 3.
i just want to use vlookup and hlookup to give me the row and column headings for 30 to 40 sesor at a time.... but i keep getting #n/a whenever the functions meet a table of more than one column! (reduced workbook attached)
it should surely be simple to get this data - but i've struggled to no avail. I thought that having the four separate worksheets was the problem - but i haven't had any look even when i dump the data into a single worksheet!
i basically just want excel to return the cell reference of a sensor number which exists in a table. sometimes a sensor can appear more than once, but its not very common and i could happily work around that by doing the manual search (ctrl f, find all).
any advice would be very much appreciated, i'm struggling and the number of sensors i need to test will increase in the coming months.. please help!
should i even be using vlookup and hlookup? ive tried all the other excel functions, but they don't seem to be useful?
spreadsheet 1: Lookup from Order numbers listed from A5:A177. requested formula in I5: I would like a lookup to sheet 2 based on the order number (F19:F191), to return the cell above the first non-blank value.
spreadsheet 2: Lookup value:Order number listed from F19:F191. Data search:AY19:CI191 return the (date) which is in the range above the data search from row AY18:CI18.
I've had a look at few forums but i'm getting mixed responses, having to use index / match / lookup / min / --.
I have 2 workbooks in Excel 2010, each contain just 1 sheet. (see attached) I need to compare on sheet 1, cell D1 and column A:A (this column will be much longer), with the data in columns C:C & A:A on sheet 2, if a corresponding match is found, the data contained in column D on the same row on sheet 2 is written to the cell with the matching data in sheet 1.
1) how can I return the oldest date in the entire workbook (or at least in the entire sheet if it's not possible to find that date in the entire workbook).
Code: Private Sub GetColData() Dim SrchRng As Range Dim SrchVal As Range
[Code]...
And it is also possible by using Column Number to retrieve the data SrchTxt, which is in a cell in the Row, in which "Roy" is found. This Row in this example is Row 5. Column Number may be anything within the search Range. Column Number is 3 in this example.
In Sheet1 "Poet" is in C1. (SrchTxt)
How to retrieve data of the cell in Row 1 in the column where "Roy" is found?
i have two sheets, one to display results (Reults tab) & the other tab containing the data (Data tab)
what i am trying to do is some how create a search function and have a forumula which contains a LIKE function that looks up the data table RANGE = Data!A2:K255
the search needs to lookup the primary column Data!B2:B255 ... if any results are found .. show them on the results tab.. and if multiple results are found, display those as well.. (in either instance, the whole row of information in respect to the results need to be dislayed and hopefully no duplicates are found .. eg, Data!A:K of a hit)
is there a formula that can achieve this? oh, the search is TEXT based and there should be no empty cells within the dataset
after some MASSIVE googling, i have stumbled accross this
B1 = Search box (txt field)
A6 (which will be a hidden column) contains =MATCH($B$1,Data!A2:A255,0). this formula provides the first instance of the result and provides the row number
A7 contains =MATCH($B$1,OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6+1,0,8-(A6+1),1),0)+A6. this is supposed to look for the next row number which contains a match and provide that row number
and througout my other columns, i have B6=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,1) B7=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,2) B8=OFFSET(Data!$A$1,A6,3) and so on
2 things i cannot recitify..
1, the match has to be EXACT ... unfortunately i cannot use exact .. needs to be LIKE .. eg, i cant use the search word "boat" as the range of data has "boats" 2, it comes up with multile .. irrelevent results.
I have a tab that has 2 columns of data and I want to be able to return a value in column A if my data matches column B. If column B has the text TRUETRUE, I want to bring back the corresponding data in Column A. How do I return all the data in Column A for all the TRUETRUEs in column B? I can only get the first instance of TRUETRUE.
I am trying to copy onto sheet1 Colum FH date from sheet2 Colum E by matching Colum I on sheet1 with Colum B on sheet2. I would like to know if its possible.
I have a list of values in column A (part numbers)
In columns B to E I have lists of similar values (part numbers, with row 1 representing their location e.g warehouse, office, etc).
In column F2 I would like to search for the value in A2 in the range B2:E100 and return the value in B1:E1 if the value appears... if it doesnt appear in any of the columns I would like 'not located' to appear in F2.
I've been trying to do this for a while but am making no progress at all.
Use a referenced lookup value from sheet "A", to return values, from several columns in sheet "B"
Things to note:
a) The lookup values sometimes repeat. I need all the associated values with each repetition as well.
b) The lookup values in sheet "A" are a comprehensive list, sheet "B" also contains some of these values but not all. Essentially, what I need to do is find a way to lookup each value in an account numbers column in sheet "A", against a different account numbers column in sheet "B".
If that value occurs in sheet "B" I want it to return the values from Columns X, Y, Z, (I want these values returned in sheet "A".
If that value does not occur in sheet B, the corresponding cells should remain blank.
If the lookup value occurs multiple times, I need all the corresponding values from each of X, Y, Z columns.
I have a book with multiple tabs in it. The first is a master customer file, including customer numbers. The next two tabs include multiple references to the same customers because they list multiple shipping addresses and contacts for each customer on a separate line. I want to be able to have the additional tabs refer to the master list and find the customer name, then return the corresponding customer # in the previous column for that customer. This is what I came up with: =IF(B:B=Sheet2!B:B,Sheet1!A:A,0). But the results simply returns numbers that increase by 1. It should repeat the same customer # for the number of times that customer name is listed based on how many addresses or contacts there are. What am I not doing right?
As I am at work, it does not allow me to upload the file due to restrictions on uploading. However, the spreadsheet is fairly simple so should be able to describe it.
The main sheet is called "Investigation Court Apps". An entry is made into each row and the status shows as "Open" in Column A, until a final closure date is input in Column Z, at which point the entry in Column A changes to "Closed". This is achieved with the following IF statement in Column A.
=IF(B3="","",IF(ISNUMBER($Z3),"Closed","Open"))
So that part is all automated. What I need is some VBA coding or macro (might be same thing but completely new to all this) that when the value in Column A changes to "Closed" the whole row moves over to "Sheet3". Once the row has been moved over, I want to ensure there are no blank rows also.
I have tried the following amongst others:
Sub MoveToSheet3() Dim C1 As Range Dim RowNum As Integer For Each C1 In Sheets("Investigations Court Apps").Range("N1:N" & Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row) If Cll = 0 Then
[Code]....
I know to open VBA its Alt+F11 and to close Alt+Q, but thats about it.
I am trying to copy the entire row based on values in column A. I have 13237 rows of data. Column A is grouped into about 200 categories with corresponding data in B-F. I would like this to automatically copy the data into new tabs based on the groups in column A. I would also like the tab to be renamed to the value in column A.
I recently learned how to count cells in a range based on the value from another column (excel 2007) How to count cells in a range based on the value from another column but now how I can go about returning a value from another column that matches the conditional counting. For example in the table below I'm first wanting to find the rows matching "chr15" from column A that also have a value from column B that is greater than 25,000 and less than 3,000,000. But what it I wanted to instead report the corresponding values in column C? I've played with VLOOKUP to no avail but I'm not sure if that's the right line of thinking. The answer would be the values in bold.
A B C 1 chr2 12008 AA 2 chr2 149700 BB 3 chr15 51 CC 4 chr15 5624 DD
I have a list of names and the chores they need to do on a certain day. I need a formula that returns the chore the person needs to do when the date is filled in.
Ex: Sheet2 Col:A has names filled in A2:11 , row B1:J1 has dates that you would input. formula goes in B2:J11 Sheet1 is the master with all the data the formula would be pulling from. column A2:A11 has the names , row B1:S1 has the chore that needs to be done. B2:S11 has the dates already filled in.
Got a bit of a stinker here. (Well, it is for me anyway. I haven't used Excel in months)!
I want to use a VLOOKUP function (I think) to retrieve data from a list of Exchange Rates on a separate sheet.
The user enters a 'Period' number, selects an 'exchange' variable (the blue text cells). The hope is to lookup the data on the 'FX RATES 06-07' sheet and return the result in the green cells.
I've tried using VLOOKUP but one of the arguements specifies that you nominate a column to return the information - that's the problem, we don't know that information when asking Excel.
Basically what I am trying to do is use a Lookup formula on a sales invoice where the product name and product price will be automatically entered into the sales form when the product ID is entered. What would the formula be?

I am trying to find a way to copy the contents of an entire row to a new sheet in a workbook based on the value of a column, specifically column K with the value of "good". There are 3 sheets that im searching. This is where I run into problems. Im looking to start with sheet1, and copy all rows deemed "good" into entries on sheet 4. Then search sheet2 and copy all relevant entries into the next available row on sheet4, and then repeat on sheet3.
and what I want is to say put a formula in cell B3 on Sheet 1 pointing to cell C3 that has zip code 33333. I want it to then take that and look in Sheet 2 and search A1:D3 and when it finds 33333, return "territory 2" back to cell B3 on Sheet 1.
