Find First Non Blank Cell In Row Then Return Column Header?
Jan 17, 2014
I have this table, which can be seen as a basic custom gantt chart: KLRWo.png
And I would like to fill the A column with start dates, based on the first filled cell of the range on the same row, and the header value of its respective column (row 1). It's easier to show my expected result than write it actually:
I have a data set with the weeks of the year as my column headers and a value of 1 (from a pivot table) in a distinct row value (removed for privacy) showing whether it existed in a given week based on pre defined criteria. What i need to do is ID the first (from the left) non blank cell in each row and then return that cells column header. I then need to do the same for the last (from the left) non blank cell in each row and then return that cells column header. On the attached I've put values in column N and O to show an example of what I need to return using a formula.
I've got a spreadsheet with various amounts in cells A3:L5. I want to find the last non-blank entry in each row but only where the entry is in a column headed "Guaranteed PRB" (found in row 1). Then I want it to return the column header title found in row 2, which is a date.
I've attached a sample of the spreadsheet with the expected answer in column M.
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.
how to make the data look like a table with three columns. Other than the date, it is space delimited. I have a tracking spreadsheet where Column A is populated with dates for the year. Column C contains daily values.
I don't always start entering daily values on the first day of the year, e.g., this year the first value in Column C corresponds to March 9. All values in Column C are contiguous - there are no blank cells until the value in Column A is greater than today's date code. I would like to use a formula (rather than VBA) to look down Column C and find the first non-blank entry where the value in Column A is less than or equal to today(). In this case, the formula should return the value for March 9, 2008.

I have another table that only lists IDs Table2 ID 1 2 3 5
I want a VBA code such that if ID is in Table2, VBA looks for the matching ID in Table1 and if the matching ID found, it looks for ALL non-empty cells and if a non-empty cell is found in the row, it returns the value in the cell and the header to give something like this
ive added a filter, and on column A i want to find the first blank row under the header and type the word 'tech' and fill down to the last row populated against column b.
I've been trying find an appropriate formula to extract the column header from a table in a different sheet if the row header and value in that table is known.
in the lookup table the row titles (column A) are product codes, column titles (row 2, D through AX) are business names and the table values are quantity.
In a different table I have product codes in column A and in column B i have the max number/quantity of products for that code. In column C i want to put the company name associated with the product and the number/quantity.
I need a formula to put into cell B19 to Find X in the corresponding row and to return the header value

I'm looking for a VBA Macro that will do the following:
1. Count number of cells in a given row that contain special character "*" 2. If there is an asterisk in a given row, return the column header(s) contained in row 1 of the spreadsheet that correspond to each instance of cell(s) that contains the "*".
Is there a way to do this? I've attached an example of what I'm talking about, (Column A shows the desired result.)
If I searched for the value "abc123" I want it to return Headers 1 and 2 in a seperate column. It would not matter if the same value is in one column multiple times
So the results would show me the Column Heading for anything that reads: "abc123", "ABC123", "AbC123", "aBC123"
spreadsheet 1: Lookup from Order numbers listed from A5:A177. requested formula in I5: I would like a lookup to sheet 2 based on the order number (F19:F191), to return the cell above the first non-blank value.
spreadsheet 2: Lookup value:Order number listed from F19:F191. Data search:AY19:CI191 return the (date) which is in the range above the data search from row AY18:CI18.
I've had a look at few forums but i'm getting mixed responses, having to use index / match / lookup / min / --.
I have the following sample data set and I'm trying to return the appropriate column header based on criteria (i.e. DDD) and a number value which will be somewhere within the range of the table. In example below, the value returned should be Header 2 because the value is greater than those in Header 1 column (range H9 to L26).
Want to look in one column and find the first non-blank numerical value, then have it return a value from another column.
Used to nest multiple IF functions together from different cells, but it seems overly complicated and time consuming. Sometimes I have over 30 cells to check.
For example, if Column A contains weekly sales data by week, entered weekly, and Column E has corresponding comparison data from the previous year. I want to enter a formula to check the first row that has sales data entered and have it match up the comparison value in the other column.
I am trying to figure out how to return the contents of last non blank cell in column B, based on the name in column A. So, if I choose "Sam", the result I am looking for is "blue". If I choose "Pete", the result I am looking for is "orange".
I need a formula to return column header if there is data in the column, any data.But I also need to return the second, third, fourth header with data too
In column A row 2, I have =IF(M8"",$M$1,IF(N8"",$N$1,IF(O8"",$O$1,IF(P8"",$P$1,IF(Q8"",$Q$1,IF(R8"",$R$1,IF(S8"",$S$1,IF(T8"",$T$1,""))))))))
This returns the row 1 header for the first instance of data in row 2 columns M thru T But in B2, I need the second header with data in the column.
I need the results in yellow (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th) from the array to it's left

Would use match/index but can't increment it to the second or 3rd match
Cells A3:A500 contain product numbers, e.g. 1001, 1002, 1003 etc.. etc... Cells G2:N2 are column headers, e.g. North2011, South2011, North2012, South2012 etc... etc... Cell F2 is a lookup that will return a year, e.g. 2011, 2012, 2013 etc... etc...
Against each product is a "yes" if it was sold in the north or south region for each year. This could be both north and south, one or the other or none at all.
What I would like is a formula in cells E3:E500 that looks at the year in cell F2 and if there is a "yes" in either the North or South for that year to return "yes" otherwise blank.
I am unable to upload a sample document due to firewalls.
I'm working on a spreadsheet where I need to return the column header where the value in that row matches the criteria from an if statement.
The column headers are departments, the row headers are customers numbers, the values show the % of items sold in that department as a % of the total purchases by that customer.
I need to make a formula for each row so that if the % in any of the current row's values is 75%-100% then get the column header for the column that value is in.
I know it's an IF statement, but I don't know how to return the column header for the value when the if statement is true.
Sr. ITEM DESCRIPTION BRAND UNIT A-Z AL AMEEN COLOR WORKS INDEX OXFORD PENCIL SUPPLIES STORE WAVES LOWEST PRICE SECOND LOWEST Vendor Lowest Price Vendor 2nd Lowest Price
[Code] .......
I have above table and wants to get the formula for getting the 1) Vendor Name of the Lowest Price per item 2) Vendor Name of the 2nd Lowest Price per item 3) and be able to copy down the formula for other items.
The startmonthsp name refers to the months across the top of my pivot table. This formula works but I now need one small change. If the value in the columns are zero or less then I do not want the formula to return that column header (bypass it until it gets a positive value above zero).
Attached is a workbook that shows my formula in action.
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.
I have a list of names and the chores they need to do on a certain day. I need a formula that returns the chore the person needs to do when the date is filled in.
Ex: Sheet2 Col:A has names filled in A2:11 , row B1:J1 has dates that you would input. formula goes in B2:J11 Sheet1 is the master with all the data the formula would be pulling from. column A2:A11 has the names , row B1:S1 has the chore that needs to be done. B2:S11 has the dates already filled in.
I am looking for a way to find the first blank cell in a column.
Range("A2").End(xlDown).Offset(1, 0).Select
The problem is that there are no 'blank cells because they have a formula in them that checks a different sheet for data. If there is data then it simply copies that data. If there is no data then the value of the cell is "". So the cell shows blank but in fact it isn't.
So how do I find the first cell that don't show data because of the formula that resides in the cell? Here is the cells formula..
