I have this table:
| | A | B | C |
|---|---------|--------|---|
| 1 | | | |
| 2 | Oranges | Red | 1 |
| 3 | Apples | Yellow | 2 |
| 4 | Grapes | Orange | 3 |
| 5 | Oranges | Orange | 4 |
| 6 | Apples | Red | 5 |
| 7 | Grapes | Green | 6 |
| 8 | Apples | Green | 7 |
I want to check for matching values in Column A like Apples,Yellow , Apples,Green, etc... and return all the corresponding values from Column B in one row:
I tried to nest AND into IF but didn't work out as it wasn't returning any values at all.
| | A | B | C | D | E |
|----|---------|-------------|---|---|---|
| 11 | Apples | Green | 1 | | |
| 12 | Oranges | YellowGreen | 2 | | |
My code:
=INDEX($B$2:$B$8, SMALL(IF($A$11=$A$2:$A$8, ROW($A$2:$A$8)-ROW($A$2)+1), COLUMN(A1)))
How do I get this formula to look at two variables to match?
Thank you.
You seem to be using an array formula, wouldn't concatenating work?
{=INDEX($C$2:$C$8, SMALL(IF($A11&" "&$B11=$A$2:$A$8&" "&$B$2:$B$8, ROW($A$2:$A$8)-ROW($A$2)+1), COLUMN(A1)))}

This must be a simple thing to do but somehow I am unable to find answer to this question. In google sheets, if you want to reference an entire column (e.g Column A) you will put ={A:A} and the entire column will be referenced. How do you achieve similar thing in MS excel?
EDIT: (Asked in comments to post specific example)
Lets assume google sheets contain the following data:
| A | B | C |
| 1 | 5 | 9 |
| 2 | 6 | 0 |
| 3 | 7 | 9 |
| 4 | 8 | 0 |
Now if in cell D1 I type ={A:A}, the entire column A will be shown in column D.
| A | B | C | D |
| 1 | 5 | 9 |={A:A}
| 2 | 6 | 0 |
| 3 | 7 | 9 |
| 4 | 8 | 0 |
becomes
| A | B | C | D |
| 1 | 5 | 9 | 1 |
| 2 | 6 | 0 | 2 |
| 3 | 7 | 9 | 3 |
| 4 | 8 | 0 | 4 |
I dont have to drag the formula to the bottom or anything. It just shows the entire column
How do I do the exact same thing in excel?
It depends. For example:
=COUNTIF(A:A,"gold")
Excel does not support stuff like:
=COUNTIF(A12:A,"gold")
Is there a way by using a DAX measure to create the column which contain text values instead of the numeric sum/count that it will automatically give?
In the example below the first name will appear as a value (in the first table) instead of their name as in the second.
Data table:
+----+------------+------------+---------------+-------+-------+
| id | first_name | last_name | currency | Sales | Stock |
+----+------------+------------+---------------+-------+-------+
| 1 | Giovanna | Christon | Peso | 10 | 12 |
| 2 | Roderich | MacMorland | Peso | 8 | 10 |
| 3 | Bond | Arkcoll | Yuan Renminbi | 4 | 6 |
| 1 | Giovanna | Christon | Peso | 11 | 13 |
| 2 | Roderich | MacMorland | Peso | 9 | 11 |
| 3 | Bond | Arkcoll | Yuan Renminbi | 5 | 7 |
| 1 | Giovanna | Christon | Peso | 15 | 17 |
| 2 | Roderich | MacMorland | Peso | 10 | 12 |
| 3 | Bond | Arkcoll | Yuan Renminbi | 6 | 8 |
| 1 | Giovanna | Christon | Peso | 17 | 19 |
| 2 | Roderich | MacMorland | Peso | 11 | 13 |

No DAX needed. You should put the first_name field on Rows and not on Values. Select Tabular View for the Report Layout. Like this:
After some search I found 4 ways.
measure 1 (will return blank if values differ):
=IF(COUNTROWS(VALUES(Table1[first_name])) > 1, BLANK(), VALUES(Table1[first_name]))
measure 2 (will return blank if values differ):
=CALCULATE(
VALUES(Table1[first_name]),
FILTER(Table1,
COUNTROWS(VALUES(Table1[first_name]))=1))
measure 3 (will show every single text value), thanks # Rory:
=CONCATENATEX(Table1,[first_name]," ")
For very large dataset this concatenate seems to work better:
=CALCULATE(CONCATENATEX(VALUES(Table1[first_name]),Table1[first_name]," "))

Summary
I want to have a column in my spreadsheet that does 2 things.
1) In an ordered column, it will return the range where the column contains a specified value.
2) It will run a function (i.e., =SUM(), =AVERAGE(), etc.) over that same range in a different column.
Examples
Original
| NAME | VAL | FOO |
|-------|-----|-----|
| A | 3 | |
| A | 2 | |
| A | 4 | |
| A | 3 | |
| B | 2 | |
| B | 2 | |
| B | 1 | |
| C | 6 | |
| C | 5 | |
Average
I would want to get the average of VAL for each NAME. I would want the result to be:
| NAME | VAL | FOO |
|-------|-----|-----|
| A | 3 | 3 |
| A | 2 | 3 |
| A | 4 | 3 |
| A | 3 | 3 |
| B | 2 | 1.7 |
| B | 2 | 1.7 |
| B | 1 | 1.7 |
| C | 6 | 5.5 |
| C | 5 | 5.5 |
Sum
Another example would be to get the sum of VAL for each NAME.
| NAME | VAL | FOO |
|-------|-----|-----|
| A | 3 | 12 |
| A | 2 | 12 |
| A | 4 | 12 |
| A | 3 | 12 |
| B | 2 | 5 |
| B | 2 | 5 |
| B | 1 | 5 |
| C | 6 | 11 |
| C | 5 | 11 |
Having "NAME" ordered makes it easy. If "NAME" is in A1. Enter this into C2 for the sum, then fill down:
=IF(A2=A3,C3,SUMIF($A$2:A2,A2,$B$2:B2))
Enter this into C2 for the average, then fill down:
=IF(A2=A3,C3,AVERAGEIF($A$2:A2,A2,$B$2:B2))
Note that the result in C2 won't be what you want until you fill down.
Update for MAXIF
If you don't have Excel 2016, you'll have to use an array formula (commit with ctrl+shift+enter):
=IF(A2=A3,C3,MAX(IF($A$2:A2=A2,$B$2:B2)))
I'm trying to find a solution without macros in excel for following problem:
There is a table containing ratings of a student for different time periods.
So the rating of the student with ID=1 was 1 from January to April and 3 from Mai to June.
Two other students had a constant ranking (6 and 9) from January to June
| A | B | C |D |
---| ----|------------|------------|-------|
1 | ID | START | END |RANKING|
2 | 1 | 01.01.2014 | 30.04.2014 | 1 |
3 | 1 | 01.05.2014 | 30.06.2014 | 3 |
4 | 2 | 01.01.2014 | 30.06.2014 | 6 |
5 | 3 | 01.01.2014 | 30.06.2014 | 9 |
Next table contains IDs (y axis) and Months (x axis)
| F | G | H | I | J | K | L |
---| ----|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
1 | ID | 201401 | 201402 | 201403 | 201404 | 201405 | 201406 |
2 | 1 | | | | | | |
3 | 2 | | | | | | |
4 | 3 | | | | | | |
And I wish to feel this second table like this:
| ID | 201401 | 201402 | 201403 | 201404 | 201405 | 201406 |
| ----|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|--------|
| 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 3 | 3 |
| 2 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 | 6 |
| 3 | 9 | 9 | 9 | 9 | 9 | 9 |
I tried to use Index and Match, but without any good results because I haven't found a posibility to use IF (if (
Could anybody help?
You can get what you're looking for with SUMPRODUCT
Given the layout you provided, this formula should work when put in G2 and filled down and over
=SUMPRODUCT(--($A:$A=$F2),--($B:$B<=G$1),--($C:$C>G$1),$D:$D)
That looks in column A for an ID matching F2, then for every one it finds of those:
It checks the date in column B against the date in G1
It checks the date in column C against the date in G1
If all criteria match, it returns the value in Column D
This assumes you only have one entry for each period, otherwise it will sum them.
Also, you can use SUMIFS, it's a little less easy to read but I think it's slightly more efficient than SUMPRODUCT (I'm not positive, just anecdotal evidence from usage)
=SUMIFS($D:$D,$A:$A,"="&$F3,$B:$B,"<="&G$1,$C:$C,">"&G$1)
It does the exact same thing, just with different syntax.
I have a data in Excel:
+-----------------------------+--------------------+----------+
| Name | Category | Number |
+-----------------------------+--------------------+----------+
| Alex | Portret | 3 |
| Alex | Other | 2 |
| Serge | Animals | 1 |
| Serge | Portret | 4 |
+-----------------------------+--------------------+----------+
And I want to transform it to:
+-----------+-----------+-------+---------+
| Name | Portret | Other | Animals |
+-----------+-----------+-------+---------+
| Alex | 3 | 2 | 0 |
| Serge | 4 | 0 | 1 |
+-----------+-----------+-------+---------+
How can I do it in MS Excel ?
You can use a pivot table for that
