Is it possible to use a vlookup to produce a number of results…
I have a list of surnames, and I want to use the vlookup to find all the Smiths in the list, obviously a basic vlookup only brings back the first Smith it finds….
=vlookup(A1, download,1,false) , where A1 is some sort of search box for users
I think those are what I need but I can not get it to work.
What i would like is:
In column E rows 2-12 I will be entering one each of the items listed below in column e rows 14-23. As I enter an item in section (e2-e12) the corresponding entry in section (e14-e23) disappear leaving me with only the choices that have not yet been used.
I have attached sample.xlsx...In this spread sheet, two sheet are there..
1. Invoice Level 2. Product Level.
Both sheets Billed amount, discount amount & After reprice amt should match....Invoice level sheet - inv# is unique...but in product level sheet have inv# is billed like product level sale and discount amount also distributed product wise....
Here the the billed amount and discount amounts are not matching with 2 sheets. How to find the which inv# product was billed with wrong price or discount...
I am trying to find a solution to a vlookup issue. I have attached to this post a sample excel file which will make it easier to understand. I have data in one table (Table 1) where the records consist of addresses with street field, city and zip. These records have to be flagged based on the street address (number and street name provided the city or zip is the same) with a flag called "Type"(as an example Type 1 or type 2, etc).
Than I have another table (Table 2 or the lookup table) that has unique adrresses with the "Type" field that needs to be brought over to Table 1. The issue that I run into is that addresses in Table 1 have variations such as 25 Main Street can be as 25 Main St., or 25 Main St, or 25 Main st., Apt 2, which all should be recognized as 25 Main Street. All we care is to flag 25 Main Street with it's appropriate flag from Table 2.
Data in Table 1 can be in the 100k or more records in some cases so any manual intervention would be very time consuming and not efficient. Now I've tried doing lookup only on the 3 or 4 left characters of this field but than you get thrown a curveball when the address is for example 25 Maitland Avenue, which will falsly flag them as 25 Main Street. Plus house numbers can be 25 Main, or 255 main 2554 Main or 2 Main, so it is not functional to use the left function nested within vlookup. This issue seems to be more of a logical validation, which I don't know how to approach. The best way to think about this is when you go print a priority label on the USPS website and they correctly validate your address eventhough you might have mistyped your address.
(First please don't send me a link on how to subtract time or show Negative time. I know about 1904 ect.. I can't use that. I need a variation on the formula I am using if possible)
A1 I have a time A2 I have a time A3 I have a formula subtracting A2 from A1
The times will vary in A1 & A2. Sometimes A1 will be earlier or later thus giving me negative or positive times. I have a formula that will give me a correct answer but will always show either Positive or Neg depending on what I put in the last part of the formula "-H:MM or H::MM" =TEXT(MAX($A$1:$A$2)-MIN($A$1:$A$2),"-H::MM") in A3. I want it to do the subtraction but say if A1 is > than A2 then "-H::mm", If A1 is < A2 then "h::mm". I don't know if that is possibly or how to incorporate that into what I have.
I have been working on a spreadsheet with 3 sheets and have done everything except the last function which I just can't work out. Data is entered on the first sheet in a list with an item number, description, dates etc and then finally, if they are a certain type of item, a variation, a 'variation number' in a column.
The next sheet is then called 'variations' and here starts my problem. I want to have a formula that picks up if a variation number has been entered on sheet one in the 'variation number' column and if so, add that item into this sheet, in order.
So to summarise, I need sheet 2 to search on sheet 1 in a specific column for numbers 1-30(ish) for a series of items. I then need sheet 2 to list each of these in order, copying over each item that goes with the number from sheet 1 in the same format.
Now if data for a certain column is invalid, it will contain text as follows: "N/A". I want to color code the variation existing for the the three columns.
For example: If on row 3, 3A contains data, 3B contains data, but 3C contains N/A, i want the color of all three cells to be blue (not text color but fill color). If on row 4, 4A contains N/A, 4B contains N/A, and 4C contains data, I want the color of all three cells to be yellow. and the rest of the variations as well (5A contains Data, 5B contains N/A, and 5C contains data then all three green etc... etc..)
Of course logically the condition is strictly related to the N/A, and the rest of the data can contain text and numbers if it is not N/A.
Can the color coding be placed in RGB format as well? or can I create a cell with the fill color desired as a reference (in other words a legend that I can refer to when color coding the sheet)?
I have a list of text values in column X. I need to come up with a formula in column Y.
X Y (RESULTS OF REQUIRED FORMULA) Comment 1 HAT 1 First HAT in column 2
[Code]....
I can't play about with the natural order of the spreadsheet, so there's no chance I can re-sort the data into column X and (easily) identify the duplicates that way. So, it could be that the duplicated value(s) will appear in any cell within that column.
I need to identify whether the item is a duplicate in the unsorted list. Ideally, the first entry of a set of duplicates will be given 1, then the subsequent duplicates themselves given a 0 (zero). It's to subsequently do some counts on.
I guess that as long as the one of the entries in the duplicates is marked with a 1, while the others are 0 (zero), that's all that's important.
I am trying to clean up my code by using named ranges so that it will still work if/when others add columns or rows to the spreadsheet. These should be pretty easy solutions for most of you but I can't seem to find any answers online.
Here are 2 examples of the code I am trying to update:
I was thinking that replacing "A" with "namedRange" would work but I suppose that's not how the Columns application works. How can I modify the code below to work with a named range instead of the fixed column "A"?
[Code].....
For the following I would have thought that replacing "AU" with "namedRange" would do the trick as that's how things have worked for me in the past using the Range application. Unfortunately I get an error when I make the change.
I'm trying to use a variation of the COUNTIF function to generate a total number of occurrences. The RANGE is a singular column on each of five tabs in a spreadsheet, but the CRITERIA (hopefully) is made up of two separate cells on one tab of the same spreadsheet. Here is the formula as I have it written:
The purpose of this formula is to check to see how many times a student does not show up for an appointment over the course of their time with us. We have one tab with all the pertinent info on each student and I'd like to use this formula for a "No Show" column to more easily know when to cancel a student's services. The problem is that I can only get the function to search for one criteria right now. I've tried using the OR function and adding it to the current function but it always gives me 0 as the result, but if I take out the OR it returns me a higher number. Here's what it looks like with the OR added:
A2 designates the students first name and B2 designates their last name. If I eliminate the OR and resort to multiple COUNTIF's, it will generate twice the number of responses that I want, I fear.
I'm pulling phone numbers out of text strings. There is text string ("Office:") indicating that the number following is an office number (the number that I need). MID and FIND take care of this. There are sometimes two instances of office numbers in single text string, so adding a second column using the third argument of FIND lets me start another search past the first instance of an office number. We have a bunch of office numbers with the qualifier "(Text)" after the original "Office" but before the phone number. How do I catch these ones?
time variation between 2 dates including time (Exclude weekends and holidays), but include the worked time of weekend, if the end date and time falls under weekend or holiday.
Eg., A issues reported on 01Jan2014 12:00:00 PM and Resolved on 11Jan2014 12:00:00 PM
There are 3 weekends in the above mentinoned date - 5th, 6th and 11th
I can eliminate the weekends using the networkdays formula, but however in this case I need to eliminate 04th and 5th Jan (weekends), but Consider 12 hours from 11Jan2014(which is also a weekend), as the issue got resolved on Saturday afternoon, assuming for critical cases team works irrespective of holidays.
I have created a workbook for keeping records of all maintenance to vehicles in our fleet. I have a sheet called Vehicle maintenance input: & then another 10 sheets with the vehicle callsign. So Sheet 1 :- Input all data sheet Sheet 2 :- Y4 Sheet 3 :- Y7 & so on. I need a formulae that will copy multiple info to the relevant sheets, I have found a way of copying multiple info, with the formulae below, but I can't get it to work if there is more than 1 sheet.
I have a Vlookup which I want to modify so that it can become dynamic as the table array part of the vlookup will change.
So the basic vlookup is as follows: =VLOOKUP($R$3,ATTRIBUTION_FACTSET!$M$60:$P$73,2,0) but the data I am looking for wont always be in the range M60:P73.
So I tried to make it dynamic by doing the following: =VLOOKUP($R$3,INDIRECT("ATTRIBUTION_FACTSET"&"!M"&U1&":P"&V1),2,FALSE) The idea being that U1 and V1 would be numbers that can change so in this case U1 would equal 60 and V1 would equal 73
This vlookup is giving me #N/A and no matter how I modify it I cannot get it to work.
I have a sheet using VLookup to find EMail and Web addresses. I can get the address to show up but not as an active URL address. Is it possible to have the address "active" so I can click on it and activate the EMail or Web Site?
I'm trying to do a Vlookup on a file that gets automatically downloaded to the computer from a website. The data is in lots of different data sets, like so:
Loans to countries Mar Apr May Jun
Loans to banks Mar Apr May Jun
Every month a new row of data gets added to each table, meaning the start and end cells of the array also shift each time.
I’m trying to develop a workbook which holds monthly data on loan information. It tracks the interest and balance on the loan. I want the first page to have a table displaying the interest payments for every individual tab. When I was brainstorming the idea, I was considering a sort of Vlookup function to find the tab the account is on and then a further function, possibly another vlookup which connects the month to that month’s interest payment. Can anyone help me figure this out?
The attached spreadsheet is obviously simplified, there are well over 30 tabs. But I would like it to, ideally, search the account number column, search the workbook for that account number, and then when on that page use the month at the top of the first page and retrieve the interest payment and put it back in the cell. It’d also be great if the formula can be transferred between workbooks. I’m not sure if that makes sense; basically if I were to copy that worksheet into the next months book, I would like that the formula read those tabs instead of becoming obsolete due to references from the first workbook.
I have data in a pivottable which I want to compare with another table. The lastcolumn+1 of the pivottable needs to get data from another table. I have this for an example:
I have a spreadsheet (Need Data.xls) that needs to be filled out with a couple columns of data.
This data lays within 338 spreadsheets which have many items and may only have 2, or 3, or 50 that belong on my Need Data.xls spreadsheet.
I have a tab in Need Data.xls named "DIR" which has a list of 336 excel files that need to vlookup'd into.(not a separate file) They're all setup with this format:
I am receiving a run-time error with following code. The error message is "unable to get the VLookup property of the WorksheetFunction class". I only receive the message when the lookup value is not found in the table.
I thought adding the "False" command at the end would return an "N/A" but it didn't. Is there anything I can add to avoid this error?
I'm taking a spreadsheet that I produce each month and creating a year to date spreadsheet in the same format. I'm using a vlookup to find the campaign name in each sheet and add up the totals. This works fine but sometimes a camapign ends and so the vlookup for that month will produce an #n/a value so will reduce the whole sum to #n/a.
The VLOOKUP + VLOOKUP + VLOOKUP I was using that produced an #n/a is shown below.
=VLOOKUP($A6,'[Margin by Site Net April 2008.xls]Brighton'!$A$5:$F$26,2,FALSE)+VLOOKUP($A6,'[Margin by Site Net May 2008.xls]Brighton'!$A$5:$F$26,2,FALSE)+VLOOKUP($A6,'[Margin by Site Net June 2008.xls]Brighton'!$A$5:$F$26,2,FALSE)
To get round it I've added in an IF statement combined with ISERROR as shown below. It works but is looking quite messy. Is there an easier way to do this ? (the formula below is from the cell below the one above so the look up value is one cell down)
I am trying to use Vlookup to find out the min and max sales of the products shown in the spreadsheet. I have used Vlookup before but only by itself and with 2 columns.
I am trying to create cell to calulate the total cost from a column is a pivot table. I thought i had done it but then realised that it doesn't account for dupliate suites that occur.
I thought that using VLOOKUP might work for this but not sure how to do it.
What I am looking for is to say (for pivot table sheet) if cloumn b contains arable then total cost =395, however if column b contains arable and forestry then total cost = 395, however if column b contains arable and urban then total cost = 420..... but for all possible cases.
At the moment if column b contains arable and forestry total cost = 520
I want column B to be populated with the details from Sheet1, Column B if A = A and if not found populate with the text "NO ID". However for valid results, I'm getting #REF! The formula I'm using is:
im trying to created a worksheet that adds the number of days people are off in a year, i have come up with this formula as people can chage teams and therefore position in the worksheet,
I have a data source that I am trying pull data from as a roll up and I am having a difficult time with a solution.
I am basically trying to pull data directly below the cell of a VLOOKUP. Please see the attached.
This is just a small example of the actual data. The solution for the gross scores is very simple using VLOOKUP. However, I need assistance with the net scores. Hoping this makes sense once you see the file.
I have used Vlookup in a situation where the user selects the customer short code from a dropdown list and then it will display the customer address details in the 6 rows below the search area.
There can be 3 or 4 different contacts for each customer that I would like a dropdown list where the user can select the contacts just for that customer based on the vlookup criteria from above.
I tried assigning each customer a code, then making a new list of contacts, and naming the contacts based on the customer code, but got lost in what i was doing and not fully understanding what I was doing.
