Return Column Header Of First Column That Doesn't Contain 0
I'm looking for a formula that will return the column header (a date) of the first instance of a number greater than 0. For example if columns A through S had dates as in row 1 (header row), and in row 2, every column contained a 0 up until column P, I would want the date (Row 1, Column P) returned? I think this might be a sort of index/match formula, but I am not very familiar with these.

Return Column Header Of Last Positive Value In Range
I've got numerical data in columns A through AF, starting in row 4. I need a formula, starting in AG4 that I can drag down. I need the formula to look back across the row until it gets to the last posistive number, then return the column header of that column (the column headers are in row 3) so for example Header row Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Data 0 3 0 0 8 0 0 0 the formula would return May in this example as 8 is the las positive value and the column header for that column is 8. There are no blank cells in the data.

Find Value In Table & Return Column / Row Header
I am having trouble with getting a value (which is the row and column value) from a set of numbers. I have attached an example table to try and make things clearer. What I have is a table with a set of Row Headers, and Columns Headers all numeric. e.g Columns headed 1, 2, 3, 4, Rows 30, 40, 50 etc. I want to find the 1st occurrence of a value e.g. 1.0 in the table (by 1st Up mean closest to top left), and then give me the value of the Row and Column Header that corresponds to that. So for the example attached, I want to get the row Value 200 and Column 6 from finding the 1st occurrence of the number 1. I have tried various combinations of index and Match etc. But I can't get my head around the fact that the position of the 1st no. 1.0 can change, therefore I can't use any releative positions etc.

Trying to put together a macro that looks down active sheet for all cells that contain a value, sets a print area and then prints ! Is this possible? FYG, I have a column that run from 3 - 2000, which contains a formula, which may produce a value depending on corresponding cells.

Match Text In Column Of Another Workbook & Return Nth Column Same Row
I have two excel files. File #1 is a varying length and has 4 columns with ID #s in Column A. File #2 is a two column file that contains a list of ID #s in column A AND modified ID#s in column B. I need to match the ID #s in column A from file# 1 to the list in column A of file#2 then replace ALL instances of the matching ID #s in column A of file#1, with the values found in column B of file #2. I've tried using the substitute function but I could only replace one found ID at a time.

Search A Column Of Dates & Return Data From Another Column
I am trying to get a formula that will search one column range “B” and pull data from another, “D”. Dates are down column “B” and some of those dates are repeated several times. In column “D” there is only one piece of data (a number) entered for each day. Eg, if 08/06/2009 has been entered 3 times in column “A”, there will only be data entered in 1 of the cells of column “D” and blank cells in the other 2. Column B -- Column D 07/06/09 -- 54000 08/06/09 08/06/09 -- 62000 08/06/09 09/06/09 -- 61000 I couldn’t get the LOOKUP function to work properly, as there are duplicate dates in column “B” and I often got a result of 0 returned. As I’ve only got 1 piece of data added in column “D” per day and any duplicate days would just have blank cells in “D”, I can actually get a SUMIF function to work, SUMIF(B3:B60,DATE(2009,6,8),D3:D60). Although it does work, it doesn’t feel right using it and I would prefer a formula that would return just the one cell, instead of the sum of a range of cells.

Range Object/property: Calculates 2nd Column Based On 3rd Column's Number
I'm trying to write a code that calculates 2nd column based on 3rd column's number or vice versa based on the condition set on the 1st column. Below, there are two procedures. "SimpleCalc" and "SimpleCalc2". I first wrote SimpleCalc2, but it isn't working, so I worked around the error by writing SimpleCalc, which selects a cell and moves around by offset. I personally find it hard to read and error prone as I develop more logic around it. I'm trying to develop more function based on this code, so I need to make it neat and flexible. what I'm doing wrong in SimpleCalc2? Or do you have any suggestion to improve the code "SimpleCalc"? I'm using Excel 2003. Sub SimpleCalc() Dim SimpleMethodRng, SimpleMethod As String, i As Integer ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Dashboard").Range("P5").Select SimpleMethodRng = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Dashboard").Range("N5:P12") For i = 1 To 8 SimpleMethod = SimpleMethodRng(i, 1).........

Function To Sum A Column's Entries Based On Another Column
Let's say I have a dataset with blank or X in column A, and a dollar value in column B. I want to sum the dollar amounts for column B only if there is a corresponding X in that row in column A. The way I currently do that is by creating a new column C, making a if statement to display the value of B only if there is an entry in A, and then doing operations on that new range. I figure there has to be an easier way. I don't know how to use VLOOKUP, despite trying to read the helpme a bunch of times. Is that relevant?

Locate Column Header
Is there a way to reference a column depending on its header? Is there a way of doing this without the need of surveying one-by-one all the column headers with a for loop? I need this cuz if I have a very dinamic program which moves columns arround and depending on the state of the program the position of a column can change.

Formula To Go Through Each Row And If The 2nd Column Is Yes Then Return The First Column
I have a collection of data like the following: Week1 | yes Week2 | no Week3 | no Week4 | yes Week5 | no ... Week28 | yes I need a formula to go through each row and if the 2nd column is yes then return the first column. I could then copy and paste this formula into a the next cell, add an argument saying the returned value cannot be the same as the previous ones, and so on. Essentially this is a series of nested IF statements. However, Excel prevents more than 7 statements from being nested, when I need all 28 to be searched. I cannot think of a way to get VLOOKUP, INDEX & MATCH, or defined names to make this work, because it needs to step through each row.

Copy Every Second Column Header And String Something On
I have this spreadsheet, I have a title in cell A1, then the following column headers alternate betweens entries I want and those I don't (in this case A in Cell B1, an irrelevant value in C1, C in Cell D1, an irrelevant value in E1, D in Cell F1 etc...). What I want to do is take the original value, so A from B1 and make it Aa, then make C1 contain the same A, but this time Ab. It should be very obvious what I'm after from the spreadsheet.

Lookup On Column And Row Header
I need a formula to lookup and retrieve data from a table of values. Given an EMP-ID in column A of the row that contains the formula and given a column name in row 1 of the column that contains the formula, I need to do a lookup. So, in effect, I am doing a lookup based on two values .. the column header and the row header. I have attached a small model to illustrate what I need. Cell C-3 in the first worksheet will contain the formula to lookup and retrieve the value in cell C-7 in the second worksheet, based on the values in cell C-1 (column header = “Database Col 2”) and in cell A-3 (row header = “257”) in the first worksheet.

Maintain Column Header And Footer
This may seem like an odd request for help, and there may be other options that I am unaware of but.... I am looking to maintain a top header row and a bottom footer row. The sheet is 300 rows deep and If I put a freeze pane or split, the header or footer ends up scrolling off of the viewable screen. The header range is A1:G6 The footer range is A301:G304. I am looking for 2 sub()'s. The first will check the DATA range A7:G300 and hide all empty rows between the header and footer ranges. The worksheet will display lets say 23 rows of data if the user needs to enter data in a new row I would like them to be able to run a macro that will hide the first data row and unhide the first empty data row below the last row that is not empty (in the data range), and a second macro that would do just the reverse. If there were any hidden rows at the top of the data range, the first hidden row above the first unhidden row would be unhidden, and the last row of the data range would then become a hidden row. In essence it would allow the user to scroll through the data range and never loose sight of the header range & footer range.

Displaying Column Header Text In Other Cells
The basic spreadsheet consists of a list of names down the left hand side with 19 columns across - one for each art activity (I have pasted a copy of it below - but it doesn't paste so good!). Each person has selected their three activities and this has been recorded by placing a 1, 2 or 3 in the relative columns. Each person has been told that they will get a place on two out of three of their chosen activities (in which case we will change one of their choices to a 0). What I would now like to be able to do is to create a mail merge in Word which looks at each person and then goes along that row to find out which columns have a 1, 2, or 3 in it. The heading for that column would then be used as a merge field so that I end up with a word document which looks something like this: {Woodwork Stars} and {Cooking Sweets} NameClassGlass Painting Candle Centre Piece Large Nativity Figures Beaded Decorations Advent Calendars CrackerPaint Bowl/Plate Xmas chimes Woodwork Stars Cross Stitch Sewing Decorations Recycled Wreaths Pompom Robins Clay Xmas Tiles Decoupage Bowl Cooking Cake Cooking Sweets Salt Dough Wrapping Paper/Cards Smith, Fred213John, Elton213Turner, Tina123

Change Cell Depending On Column Header
I have a spreadsheet with names and start / finish dates columns down the left hand side then a row of week commencing dates along the top. for each name row I would like to change teh fill colour of a cell to green to represent the week in which they started and to red for the week in which they finished. I therefore need to cross reference the start and finish dates for each name with the relevant week commencing dates at the top. Somehow! I presume there is some kind of vlookup type formula that I need to use in conditional formatting, but I am not sure what.

Lookup Column Header Based On Cell Value
I have a spreadsheet an excerpt of which is as follows: K L M N 1 Doors Security Vehicle Key 2 TRUE FALSE FALSE FALSE 3 FALSE TRUE TRUE FALSE 4 FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE Want I want to happen is to return the column header where there for a cell which contains "TRUE" in a blank column. If there isn't a cell with the value "TRUE" then to return "N/A". In the above example in blank column P for Row 2 would be "Doors", Row 3 would be "Security,Vehicle" and Row 4 would be "N/A". In my actual spreadsheet I have 12 columns (L to W) which have the TRUE or FALSE values. I know it has something to do with either HLOOKUP, INDEX and MATCH but can't seem to get it right. Any ideas?

Column Header Of Specific Value In 2nd Row
Have a set of dates as column headers across a worksheet. Rows are product names. When a product is delivered, the cell is marked "delivered" for the date (in the column header) it was delivered. Need a formula that will look across each row (product), and return the date of the first cell with the value "delivered". I have: =INDEX(F19:AS19,1,MATCH("delivered",F19:AS19,0)) <for row 19. right now, but its just giving me "delivered" as the value and I cant figure out why.

Returning Column Header That Corresponds To A Match
I need to return the column header in a table which corresponds to the column that the value I'm querying is in. I've been trying to use the INDEX function coupled with MATCH and COLUMNS function but I'm not getting anywhere. I've found on the web a solution that uses SUMPRODUCT but I can't get that to work either. Unfortunately, I can't supply the data I'm working with as it is confidential. I know my question would be easier to answer if I could supply it.

Macro To Insert Formula Based On Column Header
I have to use several dozen pivot tables a day. I already use a couple of macros to do a lot of the tedious formatting, but if I could automate this it would save me a lot more time. I have been trying to both write a code and modify code written by the recorder but have not even come close to anything that works. What I want is to have a macro that searches through the column header for predefined names and if it comes across one of these names it will insert a specific formula, based on its name, in the first cell below the header. Then it will autofill to the last row and move on to searching for the next predefined header name. If that name is not found, it will move to the next predefined header name. One major problem is that the formula to insert under any specific header name is based on other columns in the table that aren't always in the same range. So, not only do I need it to search for columns to place a formula in, that formula has to search for the appropriate column to find the correct value to use in the calculation. For example, one predefined column name would be Avg Price. The formula for that column would be (Sales/Qty Sold), but these 2 columns could be located anwhere in the table. How can I get it, once it has found a column that needs a formula, to locate the correct column/cell to get the correct value from the sales and Qty Sold columns?

Delete Rows Based On Criteria While Referencing Column Header
I'm trying to use VBA code to delete certain rows based on a couple of criteria as follows: 1) If column header is "TERMINAL NAME" and the cell value in that column is "BONDDESK", I need the entire row deleted. 2) Similiarly, if the column header is "PRODUCT TYPE" and the cell value in that column is "CORP", that entire row needs deleted as well. The information is coming from another source, so the columns may change from day to day, i.e, "TERMINAL NAME" may be in Column L one day but in Column O another day.....

I have this data source file that comes from a back office program, and basically what i want it to do is to turn the number negative in column C when the header of that column in column A is WITHDR and leave it positive when it is CONTR. What i was thinking was that it could go to column A from column C and go up each cell until the cell is not a date and multiply the column C number by -1 depending the column A header equals WITHDR and do that for every cell in column C, but I dont know how to proceed, im new at VBA.

VBA Loop Through Worksheet And Format Each Column As Text, Or Date Based On Header
I am trying to figure out a way to condense my code (improve my code) Right now I am using a Macro in Excel to go through a workbook by selecting each column individually and if there is something in the header then formatting that column as text. The problem with the way I am currently doing it, is that due to size limitations on the VBA code, I can only select columns A to Z, and if there is more data in the worksheet it is not formatted. Also I would like the code to check the header and if the word date is in there, format it as a date instead. Also if there is a way to delete any invalid ranges in the workbook Sub Format() Dim VarFileName As String Dim VarPath As String Dim VarSavein As String Dim wsheet As Worksheet VarSavein = Sheets("sheet1").Range("C2").Value VarFileName = Sheets("sheet1").Range("A2").Value VarPath = Sheets("sheet1").Range("B2").Value Workbooks.Open VarPath & VarFileName For Each wsheet In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets Sheets(wsheet.Name).Select Columns("A:A").Select Selection.TextToColumns Destination:=Range("A1"), DataType:=xlDelimited, _ TextQualifier:=xlDoubleQuote, ConsecutiveDelimiter:=False, Tab:=True, _ Semicolon:=False, Comma:=False, Space:=False, Other:=False, FieldInfo _ := Array(1, 2), TrailingMinusNumbers:=True..........................................
