Excel macro replace cell in A by other cell in B - excel

I have a excel document where I have something like this
A B C
1 1 45 a
2 2 32 b
3 3 34 H
4 3 37
5 4 49 i
5 5 76 H
Note that 3c is combined but 3b isn't.
I need to do a macro to change the content of B with the content of C but only those that don't have a letter H. so the document would look like this
A B C
1 1 a a
2 2 b b
3 3 34 H
4 3 37
5 4 i i
5 5 76 H
Here a image

Just use this simple formula in column C,
=IF(B1="H",A1,B1)
and drag it throughout the range. Once done, copy paste all of the data in column C to A (paste special)

Excel formula to count the number of matches in col A and col B

I have a table of data (below) in column A(ID) and B(Name). I would like help on creating a formula to count the number of consecutive occurrences in both A and B. The result column shows what I'm trying to create.
I can do it for one column using =IF(A1<>A2,COUNTIF($A1:A$1,A1),"")
I just can't get it to work using both columns

Join data in A and B | Adding formula to C2: =A2&" "&B2
Then add formula to D1 =IF(C1<>C2,COUNTIF($C1:C$1,C1),"")

You can use COUNTIFS which allows multiple ranges and criteria.
COUNTIFS(criteria_range1, criteria1, [criteria_range2, criteria2]…)
=COUNTIFS(B:B;B2;A:A;A2)

Using IF and AND function

I am trying to use the IF and AND function in excel for values in two different cells. I have 25 conditions.
Below is the formula I've created but it keeps on saying there's an error.
IF(AND(A10=“A”,B10=1),11,IF(AND(A=“A”,B10=2),16,IF(AND(A10=“A”,B10=3),20,IF(AND(A10=“A”,B10=4),23,IF(AND(A10=“A”,B10=5),25,IF(AND(A10=“B”,B10=1),7,IF(AND(A10=“B”,B10=2),12,IF(AND(A10=“B”,B10=3),17,IF(AND(A10=“B”,B10=4),21,IF(AND(A10=“B”,B10=5),24,IF(AND(A10=“C”,B10=1),4,IF(AND(A10=“C”,B10=2),8,IF(AND(A10=“C”,B10=3),13,IF(AND(A10=“C”,B10=4),18,IF(AND(A10=“C”,B10=5),22,IF(AND(A10=“D”,B10=1),2,IF(AND(A10=“D”,B10=2),5,IF(AND(A10=“D”,B10=3),9,IF(AND(A10=“D”,B10=4),14,IF(AND(A10=“D”,B10=5),19,IF(AND(A10=“E”,B10=1),1,IF(AND(A10=“E”,B10=2),3,IF(AND(A10=“E”,B10=3),6,IF(AND(A10=“E”,B10=4),10,15))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
I expected the output to be, for example; if cell1 is "A" and cell2 is 1 the result should be 11.
I would highly advise a lookup table. Simply have all of your options listed out with their desired results and find them with a criteria search, such as the use of sumifs function.
For example, if you paste J1:L25 your possibilities:
A 1 11
A 2 16
A 3 20
A 4 23
A 5 25
B 1 7
B 2 12
B 3 17
B 4 21
B 5 24
C 1 4
C 2 8
C 3 13
C 4 18
C 5 22
D 1 2
D 2 5
D 3 9
D 4 14
D 5 19
E 1 1
E 2 3
E 3 6
E 4 10
E 5 15
You can then place the formula =SUMIFS($L$1:$L$25,$J$1:$J$25,$A$10,$K$1:$K$25,$B$10) to return your desired value.
That is, =SUMIFS(range_of_results, criteria_range_of_A-E, A10, criteria_range_of_1-5, B10)

excel:compare 2 columns and copy data on other columns

need help.. i trying to compare 2 columns and copy data in other columns..
Columns:
A B C D
1 3 10
2 4 20
3 1 30
4 2 40
5 0 50
i want to compare column A to B to find its duplicate and copy data from column C if column A has a duplicate at column B...
Result must be:
A B C D
1 3 10 0
2 4 20 40
3 6 30 10
4 2 40 20
5 0 50 0
thanks in advance...
An answer as I understand the question (assuming the change in col B is just a typo):
Input
A B C D
1 3 10
2 4 20
3 6 30
4 2 40
5 0 50
Output
A B C D
1 3 10 0
2 4 20 40
3 6 30 10
4 2 40 20
5 0 50 0
Formula in D2 (filled down): =IF(COUNTIF(B$2:B$6, $A2)>0, VLOOKUP($A2,$B$2:$C$6, 2, FALSE), 0).
COUNTIF(B$2:B$6, $A2) returns the number of times the value in A2 appears in the array B2:B6. If this value is greater than 0 (meaning that A2 is in B2:B6), the IF() function looks looks up A2 in col B and returns the value in the 2nd row (col C); if A2 is not in B2:B6, the formula returns 0.

Excel SUMIF based on array using text string

Is there a way to substitute the cell address containing a text string as the array criteria in the following formula?
=SUM(SUMIF(A5:A10,{1,22,3},E5:E10))
So instead of {1,22,3}, "1, 22, 3" is entered in cell A2 the formula becomes
=SUM(SUMIF(A5:A10,A2,E5:E10))
I have tried but get 0 as a result (refer C16)
A B C D E F G H
1 Tree
2 {1,22,3} 1
3 22
4 Tree Profit 3
5 1 105
6 2 96
7 1 105
8 1 75
9 2 76.8
10 1 45
11
12 330 =SUM(SUMIF(A5:A10,{1,22,3},B5:B10))
13
14 330 =SUMPRODUCT(SUMIF(A5:A10,E2:E3,B5:B10))
15
16 0 =SUM(SUMIF(A5:A10,A2,B5:B10))
17 NB: Custom Format "{"#"}" on Cell A2 I enter 1,22,3 so it displays {1,22,3}
Ok so after some further searching (see Excel string to criteria) and trial and error I have come up with the following solution.
Using Name Manager I created UDF called GetList which Refers to:
=EVALUATE(Sheet1!$A$3) NB: Cell A3 has this formula in it =TEXT(A2,"{#}")
I then used the following formula:
=SUMPRODUCT(SUMIF($A$5:$A$12,GetList,$B$5:$B$12))
which gives the desired result of 321 as per the other two formulas (see D12 below).
If anyone can suggest a better solution then feel free to do so.
Thanks to Dennis to my original post regarding table
A B C D E
1 Tree
2 1,22,3 1
3 {1,22,3} =TEXT(A2,"{#}") 22
4 Tree Profit 3
5 11 105
6 22 96
7 1 105
8 3 75
9 2 76.8
10 1 45
11
12 321 =SUMPRODUCT(SUMIF($A$5:$A$12,GetList,$B$5:$B$12))
13
14 321 =SUM(SUMIF(A5:A10,{1,22,3},B5:B10))
15
16 321 =SUMPRODUCT(SUMIF(A5:A10,E2:E3,B5:B10))
17
18 0 =SUM(SUMIF(A5:A10,A2,B5:B10))
19 NB: Custom Format "{"#"}" on Cell A2 I enter 1,22,3 so it displays {1,22,3}

Paste subsequent values in excel with condition

I have data in an Excel sheet as:
Column A Column B
1 1
5 5
6 6
50 50
.. 51
.. 52
.. 53
1 1
5 2
6 6
50 50
.. 51
.. 52
.. 53
very long list
I want to fill Column B corresponding to Column A as shown above that if cell A is not blank then cell B will have same value as A ..and if Cell A has value 50, then next blank rows in column B will have subsequent values after 50 ..
I tried to make formula
=IF(A2="",IF(A2=50,50,VALUE(A1)+1),A2)
and pasted in Cell B2 and dragged but it is giving me wrong results:
5
6
50
51
1
1
..
Can anyone please suggest? Thanks in advance.
This assumes your data starts in row 2. Paste in B2 and fill down.
=IFERROR(IF(A2<>"",A2,IF(OR(AND(A2=50,A3=""),B1>=50),1+B1,"")),"")
This works on your use case, but it's all kinds of kludgy so might not extend well to other cases.
You can simply paste in B2
=IF(ISBLANK(A2),B1+1,A2)
and then copy the formula by dragging it down
Outcome:
A B
---------
1 1
5 5
6 6
50 50
51
52
53
1 1
5 5
6 6
50 50
51
52
53
Note: it won't work for B1. You have to have enter a value in this cell manually.
