Search Column For X Or Y?
Mar 25, 2014
The end goal: to take the list of transactions provided by my bank and make a spreadsheet that adds up all the transactions for a different type.
I have already figured out that =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("wal",B5)),C5,"") works REALLY well when searching for Walmart. I was originally using FIND instead of SEARCH but I found--through this site--that I should use SEARCH instead because FIND is case sensitive and SEARCH is not. considering I have found walmart listed 3 different ways: WALMART, Wal-Mart and WAL-MART. B is the "description" column I am searching and C is the amount column that I want to copy if it matches the search string.
I want to consider McD, Wendy's, BK and Chick-Fil-A all 1 category(column), instead of 5+ different categories.

I have an array 20 Rows x 42 Columns, which contains a competition draw.
I need to search this array for a unique value and return whatever the time is in the first column on the same row as the value appears, and enter it into column C in the Womens Times sheet.
I also want to return into column D the court number from row 3.
The reason i want this automated is as teams enter / withdraw we may need to drag the games from court to court to fill gaps, so i want the Womens Times sheet to update accordingly.
I have been messing around with index and match, but cannot quite get it to return what i need.
I have attached an example ... on the sheet "Womens Times" in column A there is a list of game numbers ( #1W etc etc) indicating womens game #1 and so on. The main sheet i am using also has a seperate tab for the mens games, hence the designator of W or M on the end of the game number.

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.

I have a file with duplicate names of test id's in col a. In col b I have single test id's and col c I have test names. I need to search col a for exact match of test id in col b and if it is there then put the name of test in col c into col d.
See attached document. Basically I need to know the name associated with the ID in column B.

I like to search in a columns(1) for specific words say “Don” and then write in another column (say column 6) as “one”. Then it should keep doing until the last cell in that column. It should do nothing if "Don" is not found.
How can I do it?

use the VLOOKUP function when the column I need to search is not column A?
I have a Workbook with two worksheets in it and in Sheet 1 I have 10 columns of various text and numbers. In cell A1 of sheet 2 I will fill with a certain code that appears in column E in Sheet 1. The result I would be looking for should come from Column A in Sheet 1. I thought that the following would work copied into B1 of Sheet 2 but it doesn't appear to - =VLOOKUP($A1,'Sheet 1'!E$1:$E$481,1,FALSE).

I need to come up with a way to search Sheet1 column-by-column and within each column search cell-by-cell. The value within each cell is a string and there are empty or blank cells between data (Ending the search after 100 rows is sufficient). As the macro iterates down each column and finds a cell that contains data, I need it to copy that data and paste it in a column on Sheet2. Basically, as the macro searches column A with space between data in Sheet1, it needs to copy that data to column A with no spaces in Sheet2. This needs to repeat for 20 columns.

I am basically trying to find the first non-empty cell in a range, but I want the macro to look down columns first. In other words, I want it to look down column A, then column B, and so on. Right now I believe it is searching by rows.
With Columns("A1:D15")
.Find(what:="*", after:=.Cells(1, 1), LookIn:=xlValues).Activate
End With
how to make it search through columns then rows?

I have this formula:
=INDEX(Sheet1!D:D,MATCH("Kona",Sheet1!$C:$C,0))
Works great, however I need to tweek this somehow to search row "5" across dor "DEC" and when its found get the value 6 rows down which will be in row "11"
So basically I want to switch the columns in the formulas to rows

I have 4 values in column A (Let's say A1:A4)
These values are also contained in column Q among/with many other values. I am looking for a script that will find these 4 values in column Q and delete them by shifting the cells up. I need something like:
Look A1, If the same value exist in Q column Then delete the same value cell in Q and shift cells up
Look A2, If the same value exist in Q column Then delete the same value cell in Q and shift cells up
Look A3, If the same value exist in Q column Then delete the same value cell in Q and shift cells up
Look A3, If the same value exist in Q column Then delete the same value cell in Q and shift cells up

I'm trying to simplify a macro so that I don't have to manually find the column to change each time. Basically, I want the macro to search for a column that contains [alt enter], and then add that column name to the existing macro below.
I tried various "find" or "match" comands in VBA, but am unsure how to execute the command so that the result of the find/match affects the highlighted line below.
VB:
Sub Seperatefromlinebreaks()
'working for active sheet
'copy to the end of sheets collection
ActiveSheet.Copy after:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
Dim tmpArr As Variant
Dim Cell As Range
[Code]....

I am trying to get a macro that converts Japanese digits to their Roman counterparts but does it only in a specific column. My original version just selected the J column and then Cells.Replace ran just fine on just that column. I have discovered, however, that the users may make the crucial column either J or K, so I changed it to search for the header first, and then select that column. It replaces in the entire sheet, however.
Here's what I've got (I've only given you one digit replacement. The What doesn't display properly because this forum doesn't display Japanese):

I have a macro that I'm using to check people in based on their name. The only problem is that the names are both First Last; Last, First; some have middle initials and others have Jr, Sr, etc. I know that this can be sorted through using a Regular Expression, but I have no clue how they operate. I've found many an example of Regular Expressions for VBA, but none of them translate into "Proper English".

I'm trying to get a formula to give a response if a given cell matches any of the values in a row. This formula does not work: B2=IF(A2=D2:D6;D1;IF(A2=E2:E6;E1;0))
Spreadsheet: see attachment. I know one solution to the problem but it cannot be the right one. B2=IF(OR(A2=D2;A2=D3;A2=D4;A2=D5;A2=D6);D1;. I'm using Excel 2007, and it must be a way to easily check one cell up against a row or column. The solution with "OR" statement will be extremely long for a long list, and many columns.

I need to build an if statement around whether or not two blank cells in a row are found in column A moving down from A1
The two blank cells will be between cells that contain data (so no I am not looking for the last cells in the column, matter of fact, the if statement cannot be true based on two blank cells at the end of the column, only inbetween data)
Suedo
If Two blank cells in a row are found between cells that contain data in column 1 do this
Else Do this

I import excel generated data (in form of a worksheet) from our supplier provided programs into an excel spreadsheet. My excel spreadsheet then performs an analysis using only certain data columns of the imported data.
Background:
1. Currently, my excel spreadsheet has formulas that includes the cell references of the imported data.
2. However, the suppliers' data format may change - what I mean is that another supplier program may have the required data in a different column. I use the same program for all suppliers.
3. What does not change is the heading titles of the imported data worksheet - it is basically consistent among the different supplier programs.
Question:
Is there a way to write a formula so that the formula can go to the imported worksheet and search for a specific heading title of a column, and then place the data from that column in another worksheet?
In other words, let say a specific heading title in the imported worksheet is "Total Benefit" and that it is located in column D and the data needed is in rows D2 - D60 (inclusive).
Let's say - in another worksheet, I need the data in cells D2 - D60 of the imported worksheet in cells A10 - A68.
Currently, I write the formula in A10 and copy it to A11 - A60 knowing that the needed cells of the imported data worksheet are D2 - D60. But another supplier's program may have the "Total Benefit" in column BB (and therefore the required data in cells BB2 - BB60).
Therefore, if my formula in cells A10 is Imported sheet!D2 x 100 - it will be incorrect when I import this other suppliers' data (because it has the required data located in cells BB2 - BB60).
Therefore, if the formula can search by heading title (which is constant amongst the suppliers data), it will make it easier to locate correctly the required cells.
In other words, can the formula perform a search on the Imported sheet! worksheet for the heading "Total Benefit". Once it is found, the formula then takes the data in that column - obviously, it has to match up properly - in that the A10 takes the data from D2, A11 from D3, A12 from D4....
Constraint - Cannot use VBA macros in this solution.
