I would like to SELECT 3 rows above and below WHERE Column B = someValue .
IF query SELECT * WHERE Column B = "Andrew" result should look like:
Column A
Column B
Column C

John

I know how to select one row, but cant understand how to select such range.
Thanks for ideas!
You can limit and offset inside your QUERY():
=QUERY(A1:C,"limit "&2+MIN(5,MATCH(D1,B:B,0))&" offset "&MAX(0,MATCH(D1,B:B,0)-5))
Well, this was fun...
If 3 above or below are not available then blank... rolling data around is a different proposition.
Below the image is the list of formulae used.
So, per cell not including the data validation that is based on cells B2:B11
A14 and dragged down:
=IFERROR(INDEX($A$2:$A$11,MATCH(B14,$B$2:$B$11,0)),"")
C14 and dragged down:
=IFERROR(INDEX($C$2:$C$11,MATCH(B14,$B$2:$B$11,0)),"")
Cells B14 through B20:
=IFERROR(IF(MATCH(B$17,$B$2:$B$11,0)=3,NA(),INDEX($B$2:$B$11,MATCH(B$17,$B$2:$B$11,0)-3)),"")
=IFERROR(IF(MATCH(B$17,$B$2:$B$11,0)=2,NA(),INDEX($B$2:$B$11,MATCH(B$17,$B$2:$B$11,0)-2)),"")
=IFERROR(IF(MATCH(B$17,$B$2:$B$11,0)=1,NA(),INDEX($B$2:$B$11,MATCH(B$17,$B$2:$B$11,0)-1)),"")
=E2
=IFERROR(INDEX($B$2:$B$11,MATCH(B$17,$B$2:$B$11,0)+1),"")
=IFERROR(INDEX($B$2:$B$11,MATCH(B$17,$B$2:$B$11,0)+2),"")
=IFERROR(INDEX($B$2:$B$11,MATCH(B$17,$B$2:$B$11,0)+3),"")
In Excel 365, you could try:
=INDEX(A:C,MAX(2,MATCH(D2,B:B,0)-3),0):INDEX(A:C,MIN(COUNTA(B:B),MATCH(D2,B:B,0)+3),0)
In Google sheets, on the other hand, the formula would be:
=INDEX(A:C,MAX(2,MATCH(D2,B:B,0)-3),0):INDEX(A:C,MIN(COUNTA(B:B),MATCH(D2,B:B,0)+3),0)
(spot the difference).
Excel
Google Sheets
This should produce what you want in all cases:
=IFERROR(FILTER(A2:C,B2:B<>"",ROW(A2:A)>=VLOOKUP("Andrew",{B2:B,ROW(B2:B)},2,FALSE)-3,ROW(A2:A)<=VLOOKUP("Andrew",{B2:B,ROW(B2:B)},2,FALSE)+3))
Of course, you can replace the two instances of "Andrew" with a cell reference (one where you type a changeable name).
This just looks up the row in a curly-bracket array formed from the names and row numbers and uses FILTER to keep results to rows between +/-3 rows of where the target name is found. If you choose the first name (or any other name), you won't get an error; because even if the target name were on Row 1 and the formula goes looking for anything "greater than or equal to 1 minus 3, all rows will be greater than a negative number. Same on the high end. You just won't get a full seven names if there aren't at least three other rows prior to or after the target row.
this not the best solution but it will work , you can use a helper column 'D' that contains the following formula =if(countif(INDIRECT("B"&ROW()+3&":"&"B"&ROW()-3),"Andrew")>0,TRUE,FASLE)
and u can query from here like this SELECT * WHERE Column D = TRUE
I have a spreadsheet with string values and need to create a column with the rank (without using the rank function) of the duplicate values from another column.
Please see below for example of the desired outcome where Dupe_Rank is the created column.
Thanks!
Name
Dupe_Rank
John
1
John
2
Dave
1
John
3
Bill
1
Dave
2
let's say "Name" starts from column 'A' and row 2 as in below figure:
then add this formula:
=COUNTIF(A$2:A2,A2)
to cells below Dupe_Rank and then drag(or copy-paste) this formula to all the cells

I am trying to create a formula in excel for counting blank cells (that is the easy part ;))
But I would like to find the number of blank cells per Name in RowA.
Sheet1
A B
1 *Name* *Data*
2 Brian data1
3 Niels data1
4 Kurt data2
5 Kurt
6 Brian data3
7 Brian
8 Niels data2
Should result in:
Sheet2
A B
1 Name Percent Empty Cells
2 Brian 50%
3 Niels 0%
4 Kurt 50%
since 50 percent of Brians fields are empty.
since 50 percent of Kurts fields are empty.
Anyone?
To count the empty cells, assuming that F2 is the name value you want to look up:
=COUNTIFS(A:A,F2,B:B,"")
To get the percentage of empty cells:
=COUNTIFS(A:A,F2,B:B,"")/COUNTIF(A:A,F2)
How to do numbering/sequencing for sets of same column values? For example:
Col1 Col2
Andy 1
Chad 1
Bill 1
Andy 2
Bill 2
Bill 3
Chad 2
Bill 4
Since Andy got 2 values, I want to number it 1 and 2 in Column 2. For Bill, I want to number it 1, 2, 3 and 4 and so on.
You can accomplish this with countif and a sliding range :
A B
1 val1 =COUNTIF($A$1:A1, A1)
2 valx =COUNTIF($A$1:A2, A2)
and so on.
The formula in column B can be dragged down / autofilled in the column. It anchors to the start of the range and only looks as far down as the value we are numbering; COUNTIF is tallying up the matching values in the preceding set this way.
That is kind of slow when your list is really long. I've found sorting the column A to Z or small to larger and then using this formula is much faster:
=IF(A2=A1, A1+1,1)
Basically
if the value above is the same then add one to the count else start over at 1
**Sheet 1**
ColumnA B C D E F G H
------------------------------------------------------------
EURUSD 1.2765 1 ACCOUNT624 2 account125 1 account834
EURCAD 1.01 2 Account49 3 account45 2 account67
EURGBP 0.78 2 Account777 1 account45 2 account678
**Sheet 2**
ColumnA B C D
---------------------------------------
EURUSD 1.2765 Account 624 ?
EURUSD 1.2765 Account 125
EURUSD 1.2765 Account 834
EURCAD 1.01 Account49
EURCAD 1.01 Account45
In Sheet 1 above each row shows a currency trade and what quantity goes to each account.In Sheet 2 each row shows 1 account only. I would like to populate columnd D in sheet 2 with the quantites from sheet 1.
Breaking it up into steps, i would like to:
Find the price in Sheet2!B1 in sheet1
On the same row in sheet1, find the cell containing the same account as Sheet2!C1
Return value in cell to the left of cell with matching account
I have used index/match before but I can't get it to work for 2 dimensional arrays. Can anyone help with a formula? Thanks in advance!
It's not pretty, but using what you requested - to find the match based upon price in column B (I would say your safer bet would be to use the Currency conversion "EURUSD", for example, since what if 2 currencies have the same ocnversion rate??), paste this formula in cell D1 on your second sheet:
=OFFSET(Sheet1!$B$1,MATCH(B1,Sheet1!$B$1:$B$3,0)-1,MATCH(C1,OFFSET(Sheet1!$B$1,MATCH(B1,Sheet1!$B$1:$B$3,0)-1,0,1,10),0))
You can then drag it down / change ranges as needed.
(PS - I'm also assuming you made a mistake on sheet2 and that the account numbers will be typed the exact same in both sheets)
