Matcing And Counting

Feb 3, 2009

A quick background. I have a large dataset on radio stations in the US. The data (that I will illustrate below, and sorry if it looks like a mess, I run on a mac and don't know how to get the right structure when I paste it in) contains the following:

Column A: Owner (owners of radio stations - by their name: e.g. Clear Channel)

Column B: Owner (same owners above, but with corresponding ID-numbers instead, e.g. 83)

Column C: Market (a market which holds both owners and their radio stations, e.g. Boston)

Column D: Market (same as market above, but with the corresponding ID number instead, e.g. 21)

Column E: Number of stations - this column represents the number of stations that a particular owner has IN ONE MARKET. OBS: A owner with 4 stations in Boston, will have four cells, in which all of them say "4", so be aware of the problem with doubles, tripples, etc. ........................

Counting Matching Values In Two Separate Ranges Without Counting Duplicates?

Jan 1, 2014

I cannot get various formulas (Countif, Match, Frequency, Etc) to work properly.

I am trying to arrive at a total number of matches of numbers in cell range B1:G1 with any numbers entered into the cell range of K1:P11 and have the total of matches display in cell H1.
However I do not want to count duplicate numbers from the K1:P11 cells. (if the number 5 in posted in K1:P11 multiple times I only need it reported once in H1)

B1:G1 is the constant and the numbers will not change - K1:P11 cells will be populated by adding numbers until the all the numbers in B1:G1 is completed and match.

Range
B1 C1 D1 E1 F1 G1
2 7 19 45 22 13

H1 Total of matching numbers in cell range K1:P11

Counting Up From Certain Value?

Nov 26, 2013

want to count up from a certain number but rather to a certain number.

Basically I am making a spreadsheet of products which already have product ID's, however there are 1000's of these. So I am doing them by manuafactuer, so some sheets do indeed start from 1, but pretty much every other sheet starts from a number like 1300, or even 2563.

how I would go about making excel automatically fill in the ID field?

So it would show like;

1300
1301
1302
etc etc

Counting From Various Columns

Apr 29, 2014

I have a spreadsheet with 3 sheets, the first sheet is to be an overview of the entire workbook used to keep track of training,

The last sheet (Called Raw_Data) contains various coloumns, the two I am interested in is the training course and the name, as someone completes a course I record what the course was, who did it and date/time of start/finish,

What I would like to do it to count on the front sheet how many times someone has completed a course

Operational Overview
Joe Blogs

Work Pratices
Joe Blogs

Incident Handling Processes

Paul Smith

Incident Handling Processes
Joe Blogs

From the above table Job blogs should flag in a cell for Incident Handling Processes twice, Is this something that can be done via a formula as I am trying to avoid VBA.

Counting In A Column?

Jun 2, 2014

So I have an annoying dataset to work with. The first column contains ID#, string, string, string, ID#, string, string, string, string, ID#, string, and so on. It is basically a list of patient numbers with a list of their appointments listed underneath them. I need to find a way to count up the number of strings for each patient, like shown below:

Patient#
Count

101
2

Had an appointment

Had an appointment

Deleted-Had an appointment

The format isn't too important. The data I have is basically column A, and I want to create column B.

Counting Cells That Are Different

Oct 23, 2007

Is there a function in Excel that will count cells that are different from one another? I.e. it would not count the same value twice. For example, in column A:

a
a
b
a
b
b
c
a
c

The result would be 3. However, if I replaced the first "a" with a "d" I would get 4 as a result. Basically I want to know how many different arguments there are in a list. I could not find a function that does this in the Excel list of functions.

Counting Particular Cells

Nov 22, 2008

I am now attempting to do the same type tally except I want a tally for "in conference" Wins/Losses.

I tried the same "SUMPRODUCT" formula as before except this time I held the control key down so as to use only the cells desired. I'm getting "VALUE" for my answer though.

The row I have added in for in conference tally is row 3.

All blue colored cells are for the ACC conference and the green are for the SEC.

Is there a way to get the win/loss figures for selected cells / rows only?

Counting By 2 Or More Criteria

Jun 2, 2009

i have to create a summary of the productivity of the administration staff in my office. i have a table of raw data that shows the jobs they open each day, but i need to find a way of counting the number of those jobs.

i've included an example so that its easier to understand what i'm getting at.

on the first sheet (Jobs) i have the table of raw data. each administrator opens jobs each day which can either be S (standard) or W (Warranty). the second sheet (Summary) shows the way i need the data to be summarised. effectively i need to narrow my count by 3 criteria (Date Opened, Job Type and Administrator).

i've used DCOUNT functions in the past to count data by more than 1 criteria, but as this system will be in place for every day of the year, that means i would have to produce a table for every administrator and every type of job and every day of the year. which would be 3650 different tables, and that's too many.

is there a way i can do this more effectively? or can i somehow make the DCOUNT tables relative so that the table can look up the date required, reducing the number of tables required to 10?

Counting Wingdings

Sep 20, 2009

I am using arrow wingdings (CHAR233 or CHAR234) in the same
column and I would like to count them.

I don't need a separate count of 233s or 234s I just need a
count if the column is occupied by one or the other.

I have tried various contexts of the formula posted below without
success.

How do I count multiple characters in the same cell?

=COUNTIF(A11,CHAR(233,CHAR(234))

Conditional Counting

Jan 18, 2006

I have 8 columns.
The first column is a counter
The 7 others contains codes for faults on 7 different channels that get theres value from manual input.
The codes has a value and from all this i get a graph. Count/points.
Now i need to know when criterion is met and mark the count in the graph some way.

Fault codes:
A
B1-B13

For example:
Criterion 1 to be met: Fault B1 or fault A

Criterion 2: One individual channel >B1 or >two channels with B1 or > one channel with A

Criterion 3: One individual channel >B2 or >four B1

The criterion is judged by row. So when it find a row that match one of these i need that
count to be marked in the graph and then that criterion is set and not needed to be checked no more.

Counting In Between Ranges

Apr 2, 2008

I am trying to count the number of patients that were in a hospital during specific times (time and date). I want to know, by hour, how many patients are in the hospital. I am using a month of data as my "sample size".

I all the start times (e.g. 3/1/2008 12:35:00 AM) and leave times (e.g. 3/1/2008 5:52:00 AM) and I want to have the patients by hour for the month. So I want to know that during, as an example, 2:00:00 AM to 3:00:00AM there were 40 patients in the hospital.

So I will eventually combine all one hour periods (e.g. 2:00:00 AM to 3:00:00 AM) for all the days, but it's counting (patients per hour)

Every time A is greater than its corresponding B, i need to count 1 and have the total show up in a certain cell on my spreadsheet. I can't seem to get the A>B portion into my formula and have it hold true down the entire column and count it all up in 1 cell.

Counting If Conditions Are Met

Dec 2, 2008

I have two sheets of data.

Sheet 1:
...........Column A......Column F
Row 1........"F"............."acpt"
Row 2........"F"............."acpt"
Row 3........"F".............."---"
Row 4........"F"............."acpt"
Row 5........"G"............."acpt"
Row 6........"G"............."acpt"
Row 7........"G".............."---"

Sheet 2:
............Column A......Column B
Row 2........"F"............[count all "acpt" in Sheet 1!F:F if Sheet 2!A2=Sheet1!A:A]
Row 3........"G"............[count all "acpt" in Sheet 1!F:F if Sheet 2!A3=Sheet1!A:A]

In sheet 2, B2 should = 3 and B3 should equal 2. I can do it manually by simply adjusting the range in a countif(Sheet1!F2:F5,"acpt"), but I want it to be automated because the number of F's and G's in Sheet 1 is dynamic.

Counting Without Returning 0...

Dec 16, 2008

I want my worksheet to search a column for a specific date (3-Dec-2008, for example) and count cells containing only that specific date. If it finds the date, I want it to count them.

However, if that particular date doesn't appear in the column, it returns 0. I want the cell to return blank. Basically, instead of giving me 0, I want it to return empty. I've tried IF statements, COUNTIF statements, combinations of IF/COUNTIF statements.
