Return Latest Attempt At Exam From A List?
Mar 10, 2014
I have a list of students that have sat a number of exams on different dates. Can I pick out from the list the last exam for each person. I can sort by id number and then by date but how do I then show the record showing the latest date for each person?
Example
Mary 1/2/2012
john 2/3/2012
john 1/3/2012
mary 1/1/2012
mary 4/4/ 2012
I want to select the record showing the latest date for each person. the result would be
mary 4/4/2012
John 2/3/2012

I have a table with different values on different dates. To get the newest value on the lastest date I'm using this formula; =INDEX(F5:K5;MATCH(9,99999999999999E+160;F5:K5)).
However, how I can get the second latest value? In this example I want a formula to to return the value previous price;
Latest observation
Latest observation date
Previous price
previous price change date
01.08.2012
02.08.2012
03.08.2012
04.08.2012
05.08.2012
06.08.2012

I am in need of a vlookup formula that will return a value that corresponds to the latest day in a month. Example:
Column A had dates in format 1/3/2012 ect....
Column B is a $ amount
Column C is a date in format Oct-12 ect...
I want column D to be a formula that match up column C's month in column A and return the $ in column B that corresponds to the latest day in the month. IN the example above it would returna value for Oct 31 (if there was one), Oct 30 next and then Oct 29 ect...
So if column A had October dates of: 10/1, 10/4, 10/17 and thats it in Oct then it would show the 10/17 $ in column B.

I'm working on a project with tables. I'm not sure if I can use a function or I have to vba. I want to retrieve the lastest 5 entries for a specific column (column AA), but not blank ones. Then I want to retrieve latest 5 entries for column AC. On a seperate sheet I want the entries to be seen in order and I want it to change as new data is entered into the table. In the end I'll have the latest 5 entries for Internal (Column AA) and then after that the latest 5 entreis for External (Column AC).

I am trying to use a function to search for a particluar value (e.g., ssn) in one column and return the "InDate" in another column. I thought this would be easy, but I'm having considerable trouble. When I do manage to get a value returned, it's the wrong value. I need to return the most recent "InDate" for the ssn that I search for. The button on the " Lookup" sheet is to sort the InDate column descending so that the Excel function will start with the most recent date when it searches. I've tried Lookup and and just about every other similar function with no luck. I originally wanted to search for a ssn and return the information for the last 5-10 most recent visits, but gave up on that long ago.

I have data for various firms - such as revenues, employees, etc. - for multiple time periods. There is no uniformity, so for some firms I'll have data for 8 time periods, for others for 1, for others for 30, etc. I have hundreds of columns, but the three relevant ones are: in one column is firm ID, in another column in reporting date, and in another column is number of employees.
The attached sample data will make it easier to understand.
I'd like a summary table that tells me the most recent reported number of employees for each firm, and the date of that reported figure. If that firm never reported any employee figures, then the summary table should still have a row for that firm ID, but blanks in the 'reporting date' and 'employees' columns. So, the summary table should be 3 columns - firm ID, reporting date and employees.
The challenging aspect is that the most recent reported employee figure is not always the most recent date on which we got data from the firm (so I can't just do a sort followed by a 'remove duplicates'). It'll need either a multi-step formula solution or a VBA code (that's my guess).
The attached sample data will make it easier to understand. It has the form of data I have and the desired output form.

I'm trying to return a distinct list of rows that filter based on the latest date and largest quantity for each distinct AccountID and ProductID combination.
I tried some variant of the =max function, but I need two filters.
The purpose of this is to create a data set of all company accounts with the most recent number of products used to upload to a database.
The simplified and original data set is as follows:
AccountID
ProductID
Company
Date

In the attached workbook - the stock Inventory is increased, every second day, by the value shown in cells of column A. Column B displays the date of the update. I'm looking for a Formula (might be an Array Formula) that will return the latest date before the stock turns to be greater than the value in cell D3. I managed to solve it, in cell F3, but with the help column C.

I have a faculty member who needs to regrade an exam. (a CMS problem). The answer key is on one page and each of the individual student submissions are on subsequent pages.
The students all received exams that had the questions and the answers scrambled.
I need to find a way to match the question from the submission to the same question in the answer key and return the correct answer to a new column on the student submission.
A few issues:
* Some of the questions have multiple answers and the submission log lists each as a separate question. (ie. Answer Key #69)
* Not all of the "Correct Answers" are in the same column on the Answer Key (ie. Answer Key #70)
There are about 140 submissions all together -- I need some help trying to figure this one out.

I have a spreadsheet and it shows a raw data dump of all sales transactions per product. This has been transferred via ODBC and I need some sort of query to filter out the data.
Is there any way I can write a query to only bring in the latest transaction based on the sale date per product?
Columns are:
Product Code|Last Sales Date|Cost Price

I want to maintain a history of exam results held on different dates
For this purpose I created a file with three sheets named Inputs, Working & result history. Description of all sheet is as follows :
“Inputs” Used as main Input file to feed marks for each subject on certain exam date.
“Working” Linked with sheet inputs and perform calculations ( total marks, % etc)
“Result History” Date wise history of exam results based on sheet (working).
Required Solution Steps:
1.Score entered for different subjects in Sheet “Inputs” for a particular exam date.
2.Obtained marks are totaled and score % calculated based on scores entered in sheet inputs.
3.Date wise history of exam results recorded based on working sheet.
To transfer/copy/paste results from “Working” sheet to “Result history” sheet I recorded a macro which is linked with a button. This macro copy record from working sheet and paste it as value to result history sheet....

I'm trying to pull the earliest and lasted times out of a list of time stamps. Say I have a column full of clock in and clock out times and wanted to find the first clock in time and the last clock out time (just an example). My lookup_value would be a Store number. I can't post it here due to legality reasons, but I have a column a store numbers that will be my lookup values and I need to find the earliest and lastest time in a list of data on another tab.

My file has 8 sheets with identical linked drop-down boxes at the top. Sheet1 has a graph that needs to be sorted from top to bottom each time a drop-down box from any of the sheets is adjusted. Using tips from this site, my macro moves to Sheet1, sorts, and then returns to whichever sheet I start at.
This works if the first drop-down box I adjust is from Sheet1. If the first drop-down box I adjust is from any other sheet I get "Run-time error '1004': Sort Method of Range Class Failed." Basically I get an error unless I use a Sheet1 drop-down box first. After using a Sheet1 drop-down box, all sheets work without error. How can I fix this error? Below is my macro................

So this is my first attempt at creating a UserForm progress bar. I currently have the status bar doing basically what I am trying to accomplish but I'm trying to broaden my skills (BTW, I've deleted all company sensitive data but the code should still work for you). I got almost all of this code from microsoft's web page on UserForm Progress Bars and then modified it to work with my existing code. When I execute the code (Click the macro button) the UserForm comes up, but the progress bar is not updating like I was expecting.

I've attached a spreadsheet which is a basic version of what I'm trying to achieve. I've got a pivottable based on 3 columns of data: Order No, Delivery Date, Value
I want the sum of a given order in a certain month. E.g. the value of Order No. 1001 for Dec '05. I tried doing a pivottable and then using GETPIVOTDATA (which I've not really used before) and failed. I imagine there's a better way I've not attempted yet. Can anyone shed any light? The spreadsheet is attached

Created a button in a spreadsheet but cannot activate the shortcut menu that contains "assign macro." Help says select the button, right click on a handle and a shortcut menu appears with "assign macro." Not. I right clicked every handle numerous times and get the regular shortcut menu without the "assign macro" option.

I am trying to write a code enabling some calculations. As part of this code I want to find an integer in an excel range. I set the variable (integer) as Rvalue and wrote the following:
Selection.Find(Rvalue).Activate
which works fine as long as the find is successful. The issue I have however is when the variable cannot be found. I tried using the "iserror" function in vba but it appears that excel/vba does not recognise this issue as an error; I could use an excel formula (i.e. if(iserror(vlookup...) but I would prefer to find out how to handle the issue in vba.

I am trying to find the largest value, second largest, and third largest value for a column of numbers then return a content value for the adjacent column that contains the name for which each. The problem I am running into is when the second highest has the same value as the highest and also when the third value is zero (n=meaning there are only non-zero numbers for the column). I am using these formulas currently whic work when the numbers are not the same and I have atleast 3 non-zero numbers but I need to modify in order to account for the problem stated above...
