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).
View 1 RepliesI have four columns of data, as follows:
label 1, value 1, label 2, value 2
I need to create a formula in the fith column that for each line will tell excel to:
look for entry in 'label 1' in 'label 2' if there is a match, then subtract value 1 from value 2, display result.
I have tried doing this with SUMIF but am getting nowhere fast....
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.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI 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?
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.)
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 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!
View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.
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.

Match?
[Code] ..........
Basically the formula would be in Column G and would look at B, D, & F to see if they match or not. In the example above - row two - they all match. So a True, 1, or Text option such as YES would be great. Same as row 3 only you can see they are different.
I am going to explain the issue with a photo linked below

Basically i want to match data from column one with data from column 3 if true then copy the data in column 2 to columns 4 in the same match row.
Please see the attached example. I'm trying to highlight cells only if 2 values in the row match 2 values in another row. If a book title/author combination matches that of another title/author combination in a different row, it would highlight. Some alternate rows will contain different titles by the same author, and some rows will have like titles by different authors...but they should not highlight.
The only situation where highlighting would occur is if the title/author pairing appears in another row.
I'm trying to decide if this would be a conditional formatting/highlighting rule, or if it would be a macro/vbs?
I'm using Excel 2013.

Been a while since I've worked with macros within excel and I can't seem to get what I remember being a basic macro to work whatsoever. I have 2 worksheets containing a massive amount of data and need to pull some cells from one into the other when values in 2 columns match.
To better explain, sheet1 has ID numbers in column G spanning for roughly 1700 rows. Sheet 2 has corresponding ID numbers in column EO. The data I need to copy over is in columns EP and EQ on sheet 2.
So I'm trying to build a macro to compare the values in Sheet1_Column_G to those on Sheet2_Column_EO and when a match is found, copy the value in EO and the adjacent entries in columns EP & EQ over into columns X, Y, and Z on sheet 1.
Couldn't get a VB function together to save my life so I tried working with MATCH & INDEX and didn't get very far either. I've included my current function below.
=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(G1606,Data!$EO$527:$EO$601,0)),INDEX(Data!$EO$527:$EQ$601,MATCH(G1606,Data!$EO$527:$EO$601,0)),"Not Found")
I have two columns with team abbreviations, one simply says whether they are AL or NL the other is the result of a search with multiple occurrences of the team name. I need to match the long list with the short and put the column header AL or NL in the adjacent cell.
I'm using Excel 2007
The last formula I tried was =INDEX($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

I have 2 different sets of data: temperature data recorded at meteo-stations defined by latitude / longitude, and major world cities also defined by latitude / longitude.
After the user chooses the station's coordinates, temperature data is pulled out from the first data set; this works! However, I would like to be able to provide information about the closest city to the chosen meteo-station from the second data set.
File attached with sample data sets.
I have a userform with several textboxes and 2 comboboxes. The data that I need protected from duplication is based in the comboboxes. If I ignore the other fields and presume the following it may be easier to understand:
The comboboxes are populated by the data stored in sheet1 and when the userform is complete, the OK button populates all the data into sheet2
Combobox1 contains names eg, John, Julie, Bob etc
Combobox2 contains colours eg, Red, Blue, Green etc
I want the userform to allow the data to be entered into sheet2 only if it is not an exact duplicate of the choices in BOTH of the comboboxes
For Example
John Red
Julie Red
Bob Blue
John Blue
These are all ok, however, to try and enter John Red again would bring up a message box indicating a duplicate entry and prevent the data from being entered.
I have 3 calculations I would like to make based on data in the spread sheet and I can't seem to get them to work with data from the two separate columns.
I tried a few of the index match max formulas I found here and could only get them to work with one column of data.
I have the spread sheet attached and the 3 calks I want to do are blank on the bottom.

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.
My attempt is in cell D2 on sheet1.

I have 2 worksheets in which I have to copy one column of cells from one to
the other. The problem is that the "main" worksheet lists nearly 3,500
clients and I have to copy numbers into the "main" worksheet on weekly basis
from another worksheet that lists only about 1,100 of those 3,500 clients.
Both client lists are in alphabetical order, but I obviously cannot just copy
one column into the other, because then the numbers won't be matching the
correct clients.
Now i have one excel sheet with two separet sheets in it ( Sheet 1 ) and ( Sheet 2 ) . I have in sheet 1 a column A with material codes and ColB is discreption and Col C IS Prices . But in Sheet 2 Col D is materila Code and Col I is a price .
the recordes in sheet 1 are around 11000 but in sheet 2 are around 2200 where the sheet 2 has a specific materials from sheet 1 .
Now i want to update the prices in sheet 2 from sheet 1 for each item after confirm that the materila code in sheet 2 equal in sheet 1 so copy the price from sheet 1 to sheet 2
Sheet 2 is old prices and sheet 1 has new prices so i need update the new prices in sheet 2
I have 2 workbooks (workbook1 & workbook2). Information in column A and column N must match both workbooks per row/ cell (ie. if A2 and N2 in workbook1 match workbook2, copy information from 3 other columns (S, T, U from from workbook1 into workbook2 - cells S2, T2, U2). Workbook2 may have information in column S, T, U, but I need to over-write it with the information from workbook1. If the information does not match per that row/cell (ie. A2 in both worksheets are the same, but N2, they are not, so go to the next line that does match and copy the information into worksheet2). I do not want to use a V- lookup for this problem. I really need a marco.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to match data from 2 independent sets, formatted slightly differently so not sure which function would work best for me. From the attached file, I am trying to match the date and time stamp (in cell A1) with that from the other data (in this example in cell E1) and return the data (from cell F1) to cell C1. So basically any date and time stamp before 04/03/09 04:00 will return a value of 44 (this value should appear, therefore in cells C1 - C30)
