Match Data From 2 Columns And Then Return Value From A 3rd One
Oct 4, 2008
1. i am comparing text
2. i have >100 countries, and with vlookup i have to type every single one, and this is what i want to escape (mb i need to refer to an array, or string, or no idea)
3. mb a solution could be sth with index, or match, i just tried it, copying some similar formula from www, but it didn't match the countries, and return the value respective for that country.
E.g. I have China in col1 (1st file), #employees 10 in col2 (1st file), and China in Col 1 in 2nd file. So, a formula should match China & China from both files, and return 10 as number of employees.
I have two columns with team abbreviations, one simply says whether they are AL or NL the other is the result of a search with multiple occurrences of the team name. I need to match the long list with the short and put the column header AL or NL in the adjacent cell.
I'm using Excel 2007
The last formula I tried was =INDEX($AY$1,MATCH(BB2,$AY$2:$AY$15,0),0)
The screen shot actually just part of the sheet copied since the screen shot look like a broken html page Ok I give up. I copy and paste a jpg it turns into code, I copy and paste the spreadsheet and formatting vanishes, I don't have a URL for the picture... I did look at FAQs and didn't find picture rules but I will look again. Meanwhile. . .
It's just six columns of data. The short list is in AY from AY2 : AY15 The long list is in BB from BB2:BB505 The column header "AL" is in AY1 and NL is in AZ1
What im trying to do is match columns A & B from AUDIT Sheet to Columns A & B in MASTER sheet. If they match then pull columns C, D & E from MASTER into AUDIT.
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.
I have 2 columns of usernames A and B, A has approx 700 usernames and B has about 80. In column C I have a list of names 1 for each username in column A. I want to compare the B with A and if there is a match return the value in C and place it in D.
I must match column A and column B to return the column C In colA there are all my countries In column B there are all my countries code and countries I want get the colC where all my colB match than colA.
I have a file with multiple column headers and data entries (dropdowns) into the rows. I wanted to create a secondary sheet...like a pivot table..if the vertical and the horizontal are both in the two columns selected it returns a value in the table.
I would use a pivot table, but it is a data entry sheet and the pivot table does not bring up all the horizontal and vertical values unless they have already been selected in the sheet.
I have 2 sheets with thousands of clients. One has client contact information and one revenue. I was able to put the 4 columns on 1 sheet. I need a formula that will say if the value of the client name columns match, (Client name) then return the value in the third column (revenue).
One other question, b/c i copied from a pivot table, i have the client name and their email address below in a separate row. Ideally i would have the client their contact and their revenue in 3 columns next to each other. Is there an easy way to bulk move the email address from the row below the column to the column next to the client name?
I'm trying to match the data in a column from one excel file with another column of data from a separate excel file. If there is a positive match, I would like it to return a cell data on the same row in the following column on the first excel file. I understand that this can be done with vlookup but because the data in separate excel file contains commas and thus I can't get a true match.
To visualize what i'm trying to illustrate, i'll breakdown into steps.
I would like to match the data below in excel file 1 to excel file 2.
Lets imagine that there is another column of data next to the list of data in excel file 2. If there is a positive match between excel file 1 to excel file 2, i would like to return cell next to the data in excel file 2 on the same row.. to the cell next to the data in excel file 1.
This is difficult as I have a column with few thousands of such data.
I have data in 1 column that I want to match data in the second column. If it matches a value in the second column I would like it to return the value from a row in the third column.
I have two columns one is web addresses and the other is email addresses but the rows do not line up. I was hoping that since the second half of the email address matches the web address I could somehow sort them so that the email address column and web address column match up. Here is an example but keep in mind that this list is about 9k long and this is just a sampling so you may not see any in this example that match. Also I may have more than one email address per website.
I found a use for the “Looping Through Workbooks” code (recommended by Dave in my last thread - thanks Dave).
I have a number of small files in "C:Files" that I’d like to loop through and find a match with data from a Master (in another folder) workbook as follows.
1. Match columns ”C” of each of the files with column ”H” of the Master. 2. For each matching cells, insert data from column “I” of the Master (“ Date” field) to into col “D” for each row of the individual files (about 300 rows) 3. Save & Close the workbook and loop to the next one in that folder
All that's needed here is code to search, match & paste, to insert into Dave's "Looping Through Files" code.
I has number sheets with thousands rows of unsort data. I need to find the price, with optional name and date if given, to return the rows values.
Example from Summary sheet, to find the price range and return 3 rows (even there are four set of answers, highlighted in light blue), with sorting the highest price first.
I have a worksheet that has four columns. FName LName FName1 LNanme1. The data doe snot match between the columns... but I need to know which are in both columns.
I need to write a formula that will allow me to compare the LName with LName1 and give me some type of indication there is a match (1, yes, etc.). Ideally, after confirming there is a match, It would create another verification that FName and FName1 also match, but that is not necessary.
I basically have a list of 4000 names in one column (A) and an extract from a report containg 26000 names, again in one column (B). I need to see which of the 4,000 names in (A) appear in the column (B) from the report.
How can I do something to either line up the names, or make them change colour or something so I can see the matches?
I am trying to match up data from 2 columns and then take data from an adjacent column. I.e. take info in cell 2B, search column D for the same data and grab the data (qty) from the adjecent cell (E).
Column A has donor name, column B has corresponding donation data for 2011. Column C has donor name, and column D has donation data for 2012. Column E has donor name, and column F has corresponding donation data for 2013.
Although Columns A and C and E all have donor names, there are many changes from year to year with the addition and deletion of certain donors so the rows do not match up exactly. Is there a quick way to have the rows match up according to donor names in column each of the three columns? Secondarily, I need to sort by donation amount from highest to lowest (it can either be the total over the three years or based on any single year.
Currently my list looks like this: 2011 2012 2013 A A A B C B D D C F E D H F I L G K M H M
I would like it to look like this: 2011 2012 2013 A A A B - B C C - - D- - E- F F F G G G H - - L - L - - M
Basically, I want to see the year over year giving for each donor. I've attached a sample for refrence. (I can't post the original due to confidentiality requirements.)
I have a volumes sheet and based on two criteria (in columns) am trying to pull the corresponding value from the April Results Table. I have product type in C2 (this varies down the column) and depot numbers in D2. The table i am trying to match has depot numbers in column A2:A93, and Product type in Row 2 (B2:P2), where the two criteria are matched, i need it to return the corresponding figure. I have tried various combinations of Index and Vlookups but i cant get it to work!
I have 3 columns of data and 30,000+ rows. Column A & B are related and column C contains some of the same values as column B but not an exact match. I'm looking for a way to sort columns A & B so that columns B & C match up and the data from column A is moved as well. For any data that has no match, a blank space should be input. Please see below.

I wish to add more criteria to the "Find Feature to Find 3 Matching Criteria in 3 Columns in Excel" (http://www.ozgrid.com/VBA/advanced-find.htm) up to 7 criteria if possible. How can I do this? I wish to display the results in a dialog box or in a different sheet. I also want to run the find feature from a different worksheet, perhaps using a button instead of having to make a selection in the table.
See attached file, "Rate Sample Index-Match Formula".
I need a formula to return the value at the cross section of two (2) lookup values that match. This formula will be input into column D under, "RATE" on the 1st tab, "TEST FILE".
In the 1st tab, "TEST FILE" there are a series of columns as follows;
A = Service B = From C = To D = Rate
In the 2nd tab, "RATES" there is a series of rates with drivers From (green) & To (blue)
The formula needs to do the following;
1. Lookup the "From" value in column B on tab, "TEST FILE" and match to column B2:B59 on tab, "RATES" both highlighted in green 2. Then Lookup the "To" value in column C on tab, "TEST FILE" and match to row C1:BH1 on tab, "RATES" both highlighted in blue 3. Then return the value at the cross section of the match "From" (point 1 above) & "To" (point 2 above) in range C2:BH59
For Example;
The rate From SYD To CBR = 0.33. I have highlighted this in yellow on both tabs to show where the formula needs to lookup the data to return the answer.
Additionally, if we were to add service as an additional lookup match how would this work?
I am using Excel 2007 and I need to search for data patterns that are spread across many columns. I am not sure how to search so that criteria is met across all the columns concurrently.
For example
I am interested in data that matches the following criteria ;
Column B has the value 55 Column C has the value 70 Column D has the value 80
Rows of interest are when all the criteria in columns B,C,D are met at the same time (e.g 55 in B, 70 in C and 80 in D).
I have names is Column A (about 200) and names in Column B (about 800) along with additional info in other columns. Column A was just added to an existing spreadsheet and will be deleted once I accomplish my task. The goal is to come up with the 200 names in column A along with the additional info in the other columns (address, phone) and to delete all of remaining names in B (about 600, 800-200) I'm trying to figure out the most efficient way to do this. I'm not sure if there is a function to match the text in Column A to Column B and at the same time move the row in Column A to match the row the name is located in Column B.
For example John Smith is currently in A1 and John Smith is in B7 and then John's phone number is in C7. I want the John Smith in A1 to move to A7. If I can make that happen for all 200 names I will then delete all rows with no entry in column A.
Sheet B contains a column called "Name" and for each name, and for each name there are corresponding numbers. In sheet A, I have a "list of interest" in column A. What i want to do look through the data in sheetB to find a match from the list of interest and return the corresponding letters, located in column A.
I have filled out the first two rows of results that should be returned as an example.
One idea i had was to put a vlookup formula in each column result 1 to result 6 so i can catch all 6 "Serves" columns from column B, but there may be duplicates in the serve columns and vlookup only reports the first match.
I'm working on a excel sheet to compare data of 2 columns. One column (or array), let's say C3:C13 contains "x" in some of its cells. The other column, let's say P3:P13, contains "d" in some of its cell. What I would like to do is compare the cells of the same row, see if they contain any data and return 1.
So if C3 contains an "x" and P3 contains a "d", therefore it returns 1. If C4 doesn't have an "x" and P4 has a "d", it will return a 0.
The closest I can get to this is the following formula
In an Excel sheet; I am trying to match and align data in column C to data in column A, but it is essential that the data contained in the entire row (coln B thru to coln W) moves when Column C is matched and aligned with column A.
