I am doing a project where I have two lists, one list is much larger than the other but has more info. I need some of that info for my other list, so I have used vlookup, but it hasn't helped.
The formula that I am using is
=VLOOKUP(B2,[Report.htm]report1183662451726!$A:$B,2,FALSE)
now the value I am searching for is "ANOS" which I know is in the search column, but the answer when I search is #NA. When I take out false the right value will fill in fro "ANOS", but if two words are similar such as "ALLN" and "ALEX" then it will give the same values for both which isn't right.
How can i add a value suppose 10 which is in cell A2, now i use vlookup to search lookup_value=A2(i.e.10), Table_array=column c, Column_index_number=1 and range_lookup=0
so when vlookup finds the matching value the sum should be 10+10=20 also it should match -10, so that sum will be 0.
I have a worksheet with 2 tabs. Tab 1 has data in two columns, column A contains a part number (6 characters long) and column B contains a value for each part number.
Tab 2 is a sheet with multiple colums of data. I need tab 2 to look at the data in tab 1 and display the value of each part number in a specific column that has corresponding part numbers but are 15 characters in length. The part numbers in tab 1 are the last 6 characters of the part numbers in tab 2.
I have been trying to use vlookup in tab 2 but it won't work because the column of part numbers in tab 2 is a full part number and the part numbers in tab 1 are only a partial part number (last 6 characters of part number in tab 2).
Tab 1 is a worksheet that is created from a Access query of a sql database. I cannot control the abbreviated part number that the query generates.
Tab 2 part numbers (the full 15 character number) also is generated from another access query which I also can't control.
Is there any way I can have tab 2 sheet look at the data in tab 1 and display the values for the part numbers in tab 2.
see attachment below for easier comprehension of what I need to be done. Note that I have around 20 subjects (2 in example) and about 15000 values per subject (5 per subject shown) Basically, I want matching rows to be aligned (see grey) and non-matching rows to be deleted, throughout the 20 or so subjects.
I am unsure if I would even need VBA to do this. I am trying to find a way to highlight all cells in column AO that have duplicate phrases and transfer just the phrase over to column CF. Ex: A cell containing "She didn't listen" and a cell containing "They didn't listen" would highlight and "didn't listen" would move over to Column CF. Would it be possible to do this without specifying the exact phrase?
I've found a vb script via Google that displays the most common words in a list followed by a number.
Code: Sub HTH() Dim vArray As Variant Dim lLoop As Long Dim rCell As Range With CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary") For Each rCell In Range("A1", Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp))
[Code] .......
At the moment this results in 1 word followed by a count.
How do I alter this so it shows 2 or 3 words, ultimately showing the most common phrases?
I wrote this function to see if a user selected string contained certain phrases. It keeps returning united states so i am guessing its not cycling through the entire list.
Function region2(searchString As String) Dim result As String result = "None" Dim lng() As String lng = Array("arabic", "belg", "bul", "czech", "dan", "dut", "dutch", "euro", "finnish", "french", "ger", "greek", "greenland", "hebrew", "hung", "iceland", "international", "ital", "nor", "pol", "portu", "russ", "slov", "spanish", "swe", "swi", "turk", "UK", "united kingdom", "states")
2. Once the entire list is broken down into its many parts, use the pivot table feature of excel to determine how common each of the parts is within the entire data set.
So, my questions are these:
1. Do you believe this is the best way to solve my problem? If not, what would be the preferred method? 2. If this is the best method, what function or script would I use to accomplish the first step of breaking down the lines into their individual parts?

I am trying to match the first few words in a spreadsheet with another column via vlookup. I tried [URL] ..... but it didn't work.
see attached spreadsheet. If column A and column N match up, I need a YES in column, otherwise a NO. I need formulas for the 4 first words matching, 5 words matching etc.
I have an output table that looks like the followings:......
There is 1 input for the spreadsheet: What month? Enter 9, 10, 11 etc. I need it to pull from a data sheet that is set up as such:......
So effectively it needs to vlookup the name in column A, (A, B, or C), and then it needs to match that to the column that has the same name as the output table (Crit.1 or Crit.2 and the number of the month above it (10,11,etc). I attached an excel sheet to better demonstrate
Worksheet1!A2 holds a text value Worksheet1!B2 holds a text value
Worksheet2!D2 holds a text value Worksheet2!C2 holds a text value
Is it possible to use vlookup to find a match for Worksheet1!B2 in Worksheet2!C2 where the combination of Worksheet1!A2, Worksheet1!B2 is the same as the combination of Worksheet2!D2, Worksheet2!C2?
I am looking to automatically assign products to a relevant categories on my website and I am working on a spreadsheet. Each category is has a four digit number assigned to it and categories are limited to 3 (Primary, Secondary & Tipperary)
So as you can see you can tell a Dual Core PC is in the Computer & Desktop categories just by looking at the first two digits. The last two digits are the category number. 01, 02, 03 etc.
What I wish to do is associate keywords to the category determine which category that product should be assigned.
Product ID Product Title Product Description Product Spec1 Product Spec2
1 HP Desktop PC HP Desktop PC's are computers Intel Dual Core Processor 500GB HDD
2 HP Desktop PC HP Desktop PC's are computers Intel Quad Core Processor 1TB HDD
Keywords assigned to category 1101 are Computers, Computer, PC, Desktop, Dual Core. Keywords assigned to category 1102 are Computers, Computer, PC, Desktop, Quad Core.
And the spreadsheet looks like this:
The script/sum would look at all the cells and match the highest count of keywords to that particular category and populate additional fields called Cat1, Cat2 & Cat3. Therefore the final spreadsheet would look like this:
Product ID Product Title Product Description Product Spec1 Product Spec2 Cat1 Cat2 Cat3
1 HP Desktop PC HP Desktop PC's are computers Intel Dual Core Processor 500GB HDD 1000 1100 1101
2 HP Desktop PC HP Desktop PC's are computers Intel Quad Core Processor 1TB HDD 1000 1100 1102
How this can be implemented? possibility with the use of VLOOKUP or MATCH commands?
I believe a vlookup would be fine but there's was only 1 value to match but as it's multiples it would need to prioritise based on the number of keywords matched and not just the first match found.
I have a cell (A1) that contains text. That text will match a single value in a reference list (i.e. range of cells e.g. Z1:Z26). When the match occurs (e.g. A1 = Z16), I want the format of the reference cell (fill color, text color) to apply to the cell of interest (A1). The reference cells are manually formatted.
I know that I could create a long list of conditional format formulas instead of using the reference, but it seems that there must be some way to tell excel: if the cell value contents are equivalent, the formatting should be as well.
Is it possible to have a formula where it will retrieve a specific value on one sheet based on matching values? Unfortunately, hlookup wont work as there are several values in the table where the 'lookup_value' is the same.
Example:
On sheet 1 (titled BSRC), I have a table which has a list of values in column 1. On column two I have the 'lookup value' which needs to be matched and all values underneath it to be retrieved from sheet 2 (titled CSRD). The 'lookup_value' range is on row 9 of sheet 2.
I have attached a sample spreadsheet for clarification.
Is is possible to construct a vlookup to identify that there are duplicate values in the Lookup_value and the Table_array and return the second and third values in the Formula result?
In the acutal project the Lookup_values and Table_arrays are in separate worksheets, but I think the example below represents the issue I'm working with.
i have a very large spreadsheet filled with telephone numberS and some other codes that go with them...i need to match the codes with the phone numbers.

I am trying to created a spreadsheet for work where I have created to validation drop down boxes, one each box has been selected i want it to return back with the correct answer in the 3rd column.
below are the 3 colums. i have created a validation for column 1 and 2 but when selected i want the final box to = column 3 ie. >=9, =2
I am attempting to place a formula in cell b3 in the attached spreadsheet on the "sheet to pull data into" tab 1 (cell is highlighted yellow) to retrieve value in the yellow highlighted cell in the "Sheet that contains data" which is on a seperate worksheet within the same workbook.
The cells highlighted red in the "sheet to pull into" tab (cells: a1, a3, b1, and b3) are the criteria that needs to be matched to those cells on "sheet that contains data" tab in order to ensure the value returned is correct.Sample of problem.xlsx <----see the attached sample spreadsheet.
To best explain my problem I will use this example
Dog 2 400 Cat 4 300 Car 1 200 Dog 7 800 Car 8 900
That data is in the top of my worksheet, and I would like to be able to find all the dog values then reference the 2nd and 3rd column and add all the dog values up and then post the totals in a area below like this
dog 9 1200 cat 4 300 car 9 1100
Stipulations 1) there are different amounts of values, there may be 1 dog value or 10 dog values, I would like the program to recognize the dog values and add the corresponding values. 2) dog, cat, car values are not the only values, there may be others like "tree, apple" but are not in use. So only values in the top of the spreadsheet get referenced to the bottom part.........................
I need creating a formula that matches the values between two separate columns with results from that matching in the third and fourth columns.
Example: Column A contains the first set of values and column B contains the second set of values. The result in column C would be all the values that are in both columns A and B and the result in column D are all the values that are not found in both columns A and B.
Using the code below I am able to copy the the data from column f to column e and match it to the row of the matching data in b. See attached workbook.
[Code] .....
I am really new to excel and am trying to figure out how to get the none matching elements in column B(where no match is found with column F) copied to column L ...
A formula that would compare any value in column 1 to any value in column 2 to see if they are a match for each other. If a match is detected it would be indicated in column 3:
I'm trying to store a value in ColumnA Row1 Sheet1 in a variable and check to see that value exists in Sheet2. If the value is in Sheet2, I want to copy the information in Row1 Sheet1 and paste it in the row of the matching value in Sheet2. I need to then check the value in ColumnA Row2 Sheet1 and check again for it in Sheet2 and I need to continue to do this until the data ends in Sheet1.
Code: Dim x As String Dim y As String A = 2 B = 2
[Code]...
The above is the code I've been trying to use. It has two flaws:
It won't let me copy into the row of Sheet2 (not a big deal though)The rows get all mismatched and it doesn't actually search ALL the rows in Sheet2 so it misses some of the values that actually DO match (the big issue) I've racked my brain for hours trying to figure it out using the above method and I think I've reached the point where I'm overthinking it way too much. I also found the "Find" method but I couldn't quite teach myself how to use it.
