Lookup Names Within Text And Return That Name To Separate Column If Found

Jun 13, 2013

I'm using a formula to lookup names within text and return that name to a separate column if it's found.

The formula is =INDEX($E$1024:$E$1026,MATCH(FALSE,ISERROR(FIND($E$1024:$E$1026,E1010)),0))

I understand index and match functions, but I'm confused regarding the use of FALSE as the lookup value and the iserror(find( usage.

Multiple Lookup Values Rows And Columns To Lookup Single Target Column On Right End?

Apr 7, 2014

I have a table of data (say Column1 to Column 5) with multiple rows.

Column 1 to 4 will have the lookup values in multiple rows and Column 5 data should be picked up using vlookup or other lookup function.

I managed to somehow bring all these lookup values in (Column 1 to 4) in a single column in another sheet. I am now trying to use some lookup or other functions to match this single column and pick column 5 data in original sheet. Result i am expecting is lookup value in first column and next to it column 5 value.

It is basically a lookup wherein lookup value is spread over multiple rows and columns and result column is fixed. I tried using vlookup, but lookup value column and column number had to change every time when i moved from column1 to 4.

e.g. D1 = 2, D2 = 1, D3 = 4, D4 = 5 and D5 = 3.

Lookup Value In Column & Lookup Value For Offset Column

Feb 14, 2009

I am trying to find a formula that would pick out a row from a matrix based on the values in the first column and then return to me each of the subsequent values from that row. I can't do a vlookup because there are a lot of blank cells and which columns have data changes. I've attached an example. The text in A1 will change and cells A3:B5 will show the corresponding values from that row along with the column title. I would prefer a formula to type in and leave in cells A3:B5 but if that can't be done VBA is okay too.

Partial Text Lookup In Text String And Return

Mar 15, 2007

Cell H1 has a variable string of references for eg
"FI570783AQ3516346EQ3516346FXVB123456"

I want to return the reference beginiing with "FXVA" so it would ignore the rest and only return FXVB123456 - this should always be 10 characters.

Just to add another complication to the mix, there may be 2 "FXVA" references in the string and i want to get both (these can be in the same string so FXVB123456FXEL123456 - but this might not happen regularly.

Perform A Two Column Lookup That Returns A Value From Another Column?

Feb 1, 2010

I have a table with 3 columns. See below for data (ignore dashes):

COLUMN X-----COLUMN Y-----COLUMN Z
Project 1---------21 Dec 09---------$70
Project 2---------21 Dec 09---------$85
Project 3---------21 Dec 09---------$90
Project 1---------1 Jan 10-----------$85
Project 2---------1 Jan 10-----------$95
Project 3---------1 Jan 10-----------$110

As you can see, COLUMN X contains Project Names, COLUMN Y contains Dates and COLUMN Z contains Monetary Value.

Here is what I need to do: I need a formula/function that will lookup "Project 1" in COLUMN X and find the latest corresponding Date in COLUMN Y (for this example, 1 Jan 10) for Project 1 and then display the corresponding Monetary Value from COLUMN Z (for this example, $85).

I have tried using VLOOKUP, but since the data must be sorted it won't work. I tried using INDEX(MATCH), but can't get it to work. My goal is that the cell will be dynamically updated every time a user inputs updated data for a certain project based on the latest date.

Double Lookup (lookup Variable Row And A Variable Column)

Mar 27, 2009

I have a file that I would like to lookup variable row and a variable column. I have tired vlookup and hlookup but these do not work because you have to specify a given column or row versus having that column or row be variable. Is there a way to do this.

Think of a set of times tables. I would like to input 8 and 9 and get 72 as an output. How could I go about doing this?

Or in the attached file, I would like to say A and 15 and get A15.

Lookup And Return Value Associated With Text

Aug 7, 2013

I am trying to automate the account classification of credit card (cc) expenses. The problem is charges to USAirways will always have random numbers after the vendor name on the cc download. I set USAIRWAYS as a Travel Expense and a simple Vlookup will not work.

For example, let's say a data dump in column C of the CC:
cell C2 is USAIRWAYS 037232A49429
CeLL C3:
USAIRWAYS 037282hf39647
Cell C4:
Facebook A8476H4

In column E I have my simple vendor name. Column F as the Vendor Account. For example E1 is USAIRWAYS. F1 is Travel Expense. E2 is FaceBook. F2 is Marketing Expense

In cell D2 & D3 I want to return Travel Expense anytime the formula sees USAirways in cell C2 returning the answer in column F after matching w/ column E. In cell D4 I want to return Marketing Expense.

Lookup For A Portion Of A Text Value

Dec 16, 2009

I want to lookup a text value in an array (vlookup). However, instead of searching for the exact value I want to search for only the exact match of the first four characters of the text value. Example

If I have in Cell A1 the text value: 5154
In cell B1 I want to lookup 5154 in the values cells C1 to C6
614a215g
515476
29421cg
215a786
914215g
2154a6

The result would be 515476

I tried with this:

=VLOOKUP(A1,LEFT(Table4,4),1)

Lookup Numbers Seen As Text

Nov 18, 2006

I am having trouble getting the lookup functions to work with some mixed data containing text and numbers.

I have a 16 digit part number from which I am extracting the ninth character with the MID function. This character may be a number or a letter. I have a lookup table to determine what the description for each number or letter means. For example:

1 Apple
2 Banana
3 Peach
A Grape
B Cherry

If the MID value is 3 I want to return "Peach", B would return "Cherry", etc... The VLOOKUP function I am using works fine if the character returned from the MID function is a letter but gives #N/A if it is a number. The lookup table is sorted properly.

I have attached an example file.

Lookup Part Text

Oct 12, 2007

I am not sure if a vlookup can do the following.

I have a spreadsheet in excel with lots of rows. In column A I have some descriptions such as:

British Pound
Danish Krone
Japanese Yen

I have created another spreadsheet 2 columns that would have something like:
column A/columnB
British/Yes
Danish/No
Japananese/Yes

This 2nd spreadsheet can grow and have more lines.
In column Z of the 1st spreadsheet, I want a formula to look at the second spreadsheet and if any word in the column A of the 1st spreadsheet matches the word in column A of the second spreadsheet, I want it to the value in column B of the second spreadsheet.

Using Cell Text To Lookup A Certain Worksheet

Oct 13, 2008

I want to be able to look up a cell and do an index lookup on the worksheet with that cells text. Eg.

=index('B2'!A2:E500,match(1,('B2'!A2:A500=E2)*('B2'!C2:C500=D2),0),5).

Where 'B2'! is the worksheet I want to lookup. If cell B2 contained BAZ, the index would lookup worksheet BAZ. If B2 contained TAZ, the index would lookup worksheet TAZ.

Lookup Numbers Formatted As Text

Sep 17, 2009

The solution below to look up numbers in an array formatted as 10 characters as text.
=VLOOKUP(TEXT(A1,"0000000000"),LOOKUPTABLE,2,FALSE)

This has worked well except now I have received the data and the text I want to lookup has been reformatted (previously leading zeros) to the number with trailing spaces, still a total of 10 characters but the above formula no longer works. Is there an easier workaround other than using "Find" to locate the position of the first space.

Return Text Based On Lookup Value

Mar 5, 2008

I have a database of customers that are all sorted by a customer number.

I have a form that has a number of fields that display customer info. When I use a blank of this form and put the customer number in it's correct field, all the other info fields do a vlookup on the customer number in the database file and return the info, such as phone numbers, name, address, etc.

Here's my question;

How can I check for a blank (using ISBLANK, I assume) to check to see if the customer number exists in our database and, if it's NOT blank, operate on it with the following example which is used to return their insurance expiration date.

=IF((VLOOKUP(B9,'[carrier list.xls]Sheet1'!$A$2:$P$1276,3,FALSE))<TODAY(),"EXPIRED",VLOOKUP(B9,'[carrier list.xls]Sheet1'!$A$2:$P$1276,3,FALSE))

I realize that this may be a sledgehammer approach and that Access is probably a better tool, but my company has not shelled out the $$ for Access...yet.
