I have an excel table that should contains only unique values in each row. If any of the previous cell values repeating anywhere in the other rows, the complate row should be deleted. The example table is like so
Example
Table The result
______ _____
0 1 3 0 1 3
6 4 1 5 -> 8 9 2
8 9 2
The second row should be cleared because the first row already contains 1 . But the third row should be there because it doesn't contains any duplicates from the previous rows.
I need excel formula to filter like so or vba code with multi dimensional array clearing the unwanted rows.
Try this one...
It works with all the samples I took.
Dim i, j, k, l As Long
LastRow = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row
LastCol = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Column
For k = 1 To LastRow
For i = k + 1 To LastRow
For j = 1 To LastCol
For l = 1 To LastCol
If (Sheets(1).Cells(i, j).Value2 <> "") And _
(Sheets(1).Cells(k, j).Value2 <> "") And _
(Sheets(1).Cells(i, j).Value2 = Sheets(1).Cells(k, l).Value2) Then
Sheets(1).Cells(i, j).EntireRow.ClearContents
End If
Next
Next
Next
Next
Range("A:A").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).EntireRow.Delete

I have two excel sheets, one cumulative (year-to-date) and one periodic (quarterly). I am trying to check for potential entry errors.
Simplified ytd table:
ID Q1/18 Q2/18 Q3/18 Q4/18 Q1/19 Q2/19 ...
1 6 12 20 28 10 20
2 5 11 18 26 10 20
3 5 11 18 26 10 20
Simplified quarterly table:
ID Q1/18 Q2/18 Q3/18 Q4/18 Q1/19 Q2/19 ...
1 6 6 8 8 10 10
2 5 6 7 8 10 10
3 5 6 7 8 10 10
In the above example there are no entry errors.
I am trying to create a third sheet that would look something like this
ID Q1/18 Q2/18 Q3/18 Q4/18 Q1/19 Q2/19 ...
1 T T T T T
2 T T T T T
3 T T T T T
I initially tried using a formula like this:
=IF('YTD'!C2-'YTD LC'!B2-'QTR'!B2=0,T,F)
I don't particularly like this because the formula will not apply in the first quarter. This also assumes that my data in both sheets are ordered in the same way. Whilst I believe it to be true in all cases, I would rather have something like an index-match to confirm.
I tried working on a VBA solution based on other solutions I found here but made less progress than via the formulas:
Sub Compare()
lrow = Cells (Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
lcol = Cells(1, Columns.Count).End(xltoLeft).Column
Sheets.Add
ActiveSheet.Name = "Temp Sheet"
For i = 2 To lrow
For j = 3 To lcol
valytd = Worksheets("YTD").Cells(i,j).Value
valytd = Worksheets("YTD").Cells(i,j).Value
If valytd = valytd Then
Worksheets("Temp").Cells(i,j).Value = "T"
Else:
Worksheets("Temp").Cells(i,j).Value = "F"
Worksheets("Temp").Cells(i,j).Interior.Color Index = 40
End If
Next j
Next i
End Sub
In my opinion the easiest way is to:
Create a sheet & copy paste row 1 + Column 1 like image below (Title & IDs)
Use Sum Product to get your answers
Formula:
=IF(SUMPRODUCT((Sheet1!$B$1:$G$1=Sheet3!$B$1)*(Sheet1!$A$2:$A$4=Sheet3!A2)*(Sheet1!$B$2:$G$4))=SUMPRODUCT((Sheet2!$B$1:$G$1=Sheet3!$B$1)*(Sheet2!$A$2:$A$4=Sheet3!A2)*(Sheet2!$B$2:$G$4)),"T","F")
Formula Notes:
Keep fix the range with Quarters using double $$ -> Sheet1!$B$1:$G$1
keep fix the range with IDs using double $$ -> Sheet1!$A$2:$A$4
Keep fix the range with values -> Sheet1!$B$2:$G$
Keep fix column header -> =Sheet3!$B$1
Leave variable rows number -> =Sheet3!A2
Images:
This should do the trick, the code is all commented:
Option Explicit
Sub Compare()
Dim arrYTD As Variant, arrQuarterly As Variant, arrResult As Variant
Dim Compare As Scripting.Dictionary 'You need Microsoft Scripting Runtime for this to work
Dim i As Long, j As Integer, x As Integer
With Application
.EnableEvents = False
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
.DisplayAlerts = False
.ScreenUpdating = False
End With
With ThisWorkbook
arrYTD = .Sheets("Name of YTD sheet").UsedRange.Value 'this will get everything on that sheet
arrQuarterly = .Sheets("Name of Quarterly sheet").UsedRange.Value 'this will get everything on that sheet
End With
ReDim arrResult(1 To UBound(arrYTD), 1 To UBound(arrYTD, 2)) 'resize the final array with the same size of YTD
Set Compare = New Scripting.Dictionary
'Here we fill the dictionary with the ID's position on the arrQuarterly array
For i = 2 To UBound(arrQuarterly) '2 because 1 is headers
If Not Compare.Exists(arrQuarterly(i, 1)) Then 'this is an error handle if you have duplicated ID's
Compare.Add arrQuarterly(i, 1), i 'now we know the position of that ID on the table
Else
'Your handle if there was a duplicated ID
End If
Next i
'Let's fill the headers on the result array
For i = 1 To UBound(arrYTD, 2)
arrResult(1, i) = arrYTD(1, i)
Next i
'Now let's compare both tables assuming the columns are the same on both tables (same position)
For i = 1 To UBound(arrYTD)
arrResult(i, 1) = arrYTD(i, 1) 'This is the ID
For j = 2 To UBound(arrYTD, 2)
x = Compare(arrYTD(i, 1)) 'this way we get the position on the quarterly array for that ID
If arrYTD(i, j) = arrQuarterly(x, j) Then 'compare if they have the same value on both sides
arrResult(i, j) = "T"
Else
arrResult(i, j) = "F"
End If
Next j
Next i
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Name of the result sheet") 'paste the array to it's sheet
.Range("A1", .Cells(UBound(arrResult), UBound(arrResult, 2))).Value = arrResult
End With
End Sub
I have this below datasheet,
COLA COLB
ABC 10
ABC 10
ABC 15
XYZ 10
XYZ 15
XYZ 15
I want to compare both the columns and if they are duplicate I want to remove blank the cell, I don't want to shift.
For example like this,
COLA COLB
ABC 10
ABC 15
XYZ 10
XYZ 15
How can I do this in excel?
Cheers!!
no vba method
Step 1 identify rows to remove using formula.
place this formula at C2 and fill down.
=IF(COUNTIFS(A$2:A2,A2,B$2:B2,B2)=1,1,"REMOVE")
Step 2 Filter for "REMOVE" only
Step 3 Select entire rows and just press DEL button, then remove filter.
Try this.
Option Explicit
Dim i, j, count, lastrow As Integer
Dim number As Long
Sub delete_duplicates()
lastrow = Cells.Find("*", [A1], , , xlByRows, xlPrevious).Row
For i = 1 To lastrow
number = Cells(i, 2)
For j = 1 To lastrow
If number = Cells(j, 2) Then
count = count + 1
If count > 1 Then
Cells(j, 2) = ""
End If
End If
Next j
count = 0
Next i
End Sub
lets say in column A:Row 2, I have a score of 45 and in column B, I have the amount of people that got that score. what i then want to do is on column D, output that score X amount of times. x=repitition.
in the exmaple 5 people got a score of 45 so in column D i want to insert 5 scores of 45. then I see in column A:Row2 3 people got a score of 46 then after the last 45, in column D I want to append 46 3 times.. and so on..
Could someone show me how to do this?
Here you go:
Sub test_scores_repitition()
'run with test scores sheet active
r = 1
dest_r = 1
Do While Not IsEmpty(Range("a" & r))
If IsEmpty(Range("b" & r)) Then Range("b" & r).Value = 0 'if there's no quantity listed for a score, it assumes zero
For i = 1 To Range("b" & r).Value
Range("d" & dest_r).Value = Range("a" & r).Value
dest_r = dest_r + 1
Next i
r = r + 1
Loop
End Sub
Macro answer:
Sub WriteIt()
Dim lrow As Long
Dim WriteRow As Long
Dim EachCount As Long
Dim ReadRow As Long
' find last in list of numbers
lrow = Range("A1").End(xlDown).Row
'start at 2 because of headers
WriteRow = 2
ReadRow = 2
While ReadRow <= lrow
For EachCount = 1 To Cells(ReadRow, 2)
'repeat the number of times in column B
Cells(WriteRow, 4) = Cells(ReadRow, 1)
'the number in column A
WriteRow = WriteRow + 1
Next
ReadRow = ReadRow + 1
'and move to the next row
Wend
'finish when we've written them all
End Sub
it is possible with a formula, just not really recommended as it looks auful, and would be difficult to explain. It uses a Microsoft formula to count the number of unique items in the data above, and once it counts the number it is supposed to write of the number above, it moves to the next number. The formula does not know where to stop, and will put 0 when it runs out of data.
in D2, put =A2
In D3, and copied down, put
=IF(COUNTIF($D$2:D2,OFFSET($A$1,SUM(IF(FREQUENCY($D$2:D2,$D$2:D2)>0,1)),0))<OFFSET($B$1,SUM(IF(FREQUENCY($D$2:D2,$D$2:D2)>0,1)),0),OFFSET($A$1,SUM(IF(FREQUENCY($D$2:D2,$D$2:D2)>0,1)),0),OFFSET($A$1,SUM(IF(FREQUENCY($D$2:D2,$D$2:D2)>0,1))+1,0))
I'm in the middle of trying to do the above but fail. referring to the image below, i need to insert five empty rows below the 4th row (john lee) and another five empty rows below 7th row (bryan key) and another five below 9th row (casey carton) and so on, i got 30+ groups of different name to do. wondering how to write vba for this? thanks.
So 5 blanks after a change in sorted column A?
Const blanks = 5
Dim lastValue As String, i As Long, r As Long
Do
r = r + 1
If r > 1 And lastValue <> Cells(r, 1).Value Then
If Cells(r, 1).Value = "" Then Exit Do
For i = 1 To blanks
Rows(r).Insert Shift:=xlDown
Next
r = r + blanks
End If
lastValue = Cells(r, 1).Value
Loop
the 1 in Cells() is the column index, i.e. 1 == A
I need some help converting three colums into a matrix using excel macro.
Here is an example:
From this:
A A 0
A B 23
A C 3
B A 7
B B 56
B C 33
C A 31
C B 6
C C 5
to this:
A B C
A 0 23 3
B 7 56 33
C 31 6 5
Hope you can help me.
Thanks
Not quite sure what exactly you are meaning by matrix. For the code below I assumed you were looking for a way to read the data in the first two columns as Row and Column data of the output table. Assume the input data is in the Columns 1 - 3 of "Sheet1"
Sub ConvertTableOfData()
Dim testArray(1 to 3)
Dim chkROW as Integer
Dim chkCOL as Integer
Dim chkVAL as Integer
'// index the Row and Column headers
testArray(1) = "A"
testArray(2) = "B"
testArray(3) = "C"
'// Iterate through every row in the initial dataset
For i = 1 to Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(1, 1).End(xlDown).Row
With Worksheets("Sheet1")
'// Assign the Output Row and Column values
'// based on the array indices
For j = 1 to UBound(testArray, 1)
If .Cells(i, 1) = testArray(j) Then
chkROW = j
End If
If .Cells(i, 2) = testArray(j) Then
chkCOL = j
End If
Next j
'// store the actual value
chkVAL = .Cells(i, 3)
End With
'// output table (in Sheet2)
With Worksheets("Sheet2")
.Cells(chkROW, chkCOL) = chkVAL
End With
Next i
'// Add headers to Output table
For i = 1 to 3
With Worksheets("Sheet2")
.Cells(i + 1, 1) = testArray(i)
.Cells(i, i + 1) = testArray(i)
End With
Next i
End Sub
You can also perform this without VBA.
Assume your table of data is in the range A1:C9.
Assume the first number (0) in the 3 by 3 grid of data is cell F3, with A, B, C in the row above, and A, B, C in the column to the left.
Enter the formula in cell F3 as
=INDEX($C$1:$C$9,SUMPRODUCT(--($A$1:$A$9=$E3),--($B$1:$B$9=F$2),ROW($A$1:$A$9)))
Copy this formula to all 9 cells in the 3 by 3 grid.
This generalized to any size of data.
