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 have the following excel file with two sheets namely Sheet1 and Sheet2. Sheet1 contains few names with repetitions like below.
Column E
-------- ----------
Row 3 tom
Row 4 jerry
Row 5 mick
Row 6 tom
Row 7 john
Row 8 mike
Row 9 mick
Row 10 eric
Row 11 matt
Row 12 mike
I want to be able to determine the row in which, for example, the second occurrence of the name "Pete" occurs. For this I have to set up a new worksheet (Sheet2) that will allow me to enter a person's name and a positive integer (such as n), and returns the row in which the name occurs for the nth time.**
Enter Name : tom (cell B1)
Enter Integer :
Result : `2`
For the result cell I have applied the below formula which is returning the no. of times the name occurs.
=COUNTIF(Sheet1!E3:E12,Sheet2!B1)
But I am not been able to find the desired answer.
Can it be done to with Countif, Countifs, Count, CountA, and CountBlank Functions?
Can anyone please help?
=AGGREGATE(15,6,1/(myRng=B1)*ROW(myRng),B2)
Explanation
myRng=B1 match each entry in myRng with the name in B1 giving an array of TRUE;FALSE
1/… changes that to an array of {DIV/0,1,... depending on whether it matches
*ROW(myRng) converts that to an array of {DIV/0, row_num}
AGGREGATE(15,6,resultant_array,B2) returns the nth smallest value from that array, ignoring the errors
I have 2 list. Both have a lot of column. I would like to insert a column from Sheet2 to Sheet1 based on a ceratin key column. Also sheet2 have much more rows than sheet1 so it ll be inserted only partly and still there ll be elements with no matches. For an example:
Sheet1:
Names ID Car Color
John 1 Audi Empty
Andy 4 Toyota Empty
Mike 3 BMW Empty
Tony 2 Suzuki Empty
Sheet2:
ID Cost Color
6 200 Blue
3 200 Red
4 300 Green
5 100 Red
1 50 Black
I would like to get the "color" from Sheet2 to Sheet1 by using the "ID". Using Excel 2010. I suspect I need INDEX+MATCH combination, but the examples I can find are not detailed and more simple so I coudn't figure out how to use them.
How about inserting this formula on Column D in the first row, then dropping the formula down:
=VLOOKUP(B1,Sheet2!$1:$1048576,3,FALSE)
Or to find the column that contains "Color", use Index Match Match, as follows:
=INDEX(Sheet2!$1:$1048576,MATCH(Sheet1!B2,Sheet2!A:A,0),MATCH("Color",Sheet2!$1:$1,0))
This will find the value in Column B in Sheet2 and give you the row number, then it will find the Column that contains "Color" and return the Column number, with those two numbers Index will return your color.
I have one example table with the following data in Sheet1 with the following random data
------A ----------------- B ----------------------C ------------------------D
1 --First--------------Last-----------------Start Date--------------End Date
2 --John--------------Smith--------------08/08/2014------------01/01/2015
3---John--------------Smith--------------08/11/2014------------17/11/2014
4---John--------------Smith--------------06/06/2014------------23/12/2014
5---Abel--------------Jones--------------14/05/2014------------29/04/2015
6---Abel--------------Jones--------------04/07/2014------------26/04/2015
Then I have another table in Sheet2
------A ----------------- B ----------------------C ------------------------D
1 --First--------------Last-----------------Start Date--------------End Date
2 --John--------------Smith---------------------------------------------------
3---John--------------Smith---------------------------------------------------
4---John--------------Smith---------------------------------------------------
5---Abel--------------Jones---------------------------------------------------
6---Abel--------------Jones---------------------------------------------------
I am using INDEX MATCH to transfer the data between the two sheets.
=INDEX(Sheet1!$C:$C,
MATCH(1,INDEX((Sheet1!$A:$A=$A3)*(Sheet1!$B:$B=$B3),0),0))
To populate column C with the start dates from Sheet1.
=INDEX(Sheet1!$D:$D,
MATCH(1,INDEX((Sheet1!$A:$A=$A3)*(Sheet1!$B:$B=$B3),0),0))
and this to populate column D with the end dates.
The problem is, when I perform this INDEX MATCH function, for a duplicate name, it will only copy over the first value. So this formula will paste 08/08/2014 into all 'John Smith' Start dates in column C of Sheet2.
How do I obtain all values so that C2 should be 08/08/2014, C3 should be 08/11/2014, C4 should be 06/06/2014 etc.
One solution would be to insert a column in both sheets with a "running count" of instances of the same name. For example, insert col C and in C2 enter =IF(A2&B2 = A1&B1, C1+1, 1). This starts the count at 1 if the concatenated first and last name is new, and increases the previous count by 1 if not. So you would have
First Last Count by Person
John Smith 1
John Smith 2
John Smith 3
Abel Jones 1
Abel Jones 2
George Washington 1
Thomas Jefferson 1
Thomas Jefferson 2
You can then add this column to your MATCH() function (and change the lookup column as necessary).
Edit: It is worth noting that this requires your raw data is sorted by name.
You can narrow the $A:$A refferances to something like $Ax+1:$Ay where y = last row of your excel sheet and x is position of previous occurance of this name/surname (you could store this in some dummy column).
I want to get the count of cells in each row that has a value in it.
ross dan bernard 3
mary 2
rose johnny 2
I want a formula that gives counts the non blank values in each row and gives the value in column E (ie., 3,2,2)
You can use the CountA function:
=COUNTA(A1:Z1)
I asked a very similar question to this one here, but I am trying to identify if a cell's numerical value is contained in a list of cells on a different sheet. If the cell from sheet A matches a cell in sheet B, mark a different column in B with a corresponding row in sheet A, otherwise leave it blank. An example is below:
Sheet A
Column A | Column B
-------------------
1 John
2 Sue
4 Bob
I would like the corresponding Sheet B to populate Column B like this:
Sheet B
Column A | Column B
-------------------
2 Sue
3
4 Bob
=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(I2, 'SALT, WOD, Champion Members'!A:A, 0)), "Y", "N")
I have been using the above answer to populate a different column in the same workbook, and I'm thinking I can maybe use this formula, but instead of "Y" or "N", somehow preserve the row.
You need to use VLOOKUP as already mentioned. But you will need to use another function to check for existence of the value, else you will get #N/A against ID 3
I used COUNTIF
=IF(COUNTIF($A$2:$A$4,E2)=0,"",VLOOKUP(E2,$A$2:$B$4,2,FALSE))
Use the VLOOKUP function:
=VLOOKUP(A1;Sheet1!A:B;2;FALSE)
Where A1 is the value you want to look up, Sheet1!A:B is the original sheet with the data.
