I have the following sheet structure:
What I need to find out is, whether code 8101-1101 contains any Matching Projects (in our case 9500-1100). I have tried VLOOKUP formula, however that only works if the matching project is set to the very first item. If matching project exists only somewhere in the middle, then the formula fails. I have also tried SUMIF yet with no luck.
What formula do I need to use, to check this particular example?
As we discussed in the comments, the easiest way to accomplish what you're looking to do would be using the COUNTIFS() function.
Given your example, your final formula would be as follows:
=COUNTIFS(B:B,B2,I:I,"<>")
Good luck and glad it ended up working for you!!

I have this problem with Vlookup which is already getting on my nerve, I cannot find any generic problems that are the same as mine. Anyways, Vlookup seems not to give out any value or even errors, it just sits there like a text; like this - VLOOKUP(F2,'Reference Table'!$E$1:$H$37,2,0)
Even if I drag this formula down it just copies the formula as a text.
I have literally no clue what you are talking about: I have "copy-pasted" your formula, added a = character in front of it, and this is what I get:
For your information, the Reference Table sheet looks as follows:

Hello sages from StackOverflow,
I'm in search of a formula that can relate 3 diferent conditions, I tried using some IF statemets with the TEXTJOIN formula but I find myself lost in the way,
I got a data base just like this (image below), just a much bigger one, I want to search for a key like MCAA01 and obtain the doc's that have in front of it a "NO" all in one cell, like if you use the formula TEXTJOIN("/",...
My problem is that I cannot find a way to relate the whole column of the doc's with the key,
I tried something like TEXTJOIN("/",TRUE,IF(2ndIMAGE!A2=1stIMAGE!B1,IF(B2="no",1stIMAGE!A2,""),""))
This does give a result but it's just 1 thing, not whole answer
please sages of StackOverflow, you're my only hope. Thank you!
You need FILTER() then TEXTJOIN().
=TEXTJOIN("/",TRUE,FILTER($A$2:$A$4,FILTER($B$2:$H$4,$B$1:$H$1=$B8)="No",""))
If your version of excel supports LAMBDA() function then you can try below formula and you do not need to drag the formula to each cell. It will spill results automatically.
=BYROW(B8:B14,LAMBDA(a,TEXTJOIN("/",TRUE,FILTER(A2:A4,FILTER(B2:H4,B1:H1=a)="No",""))))
I need to count how many cells in a table column that contains a specific text string. I'm using this formula and it works well:
=COUNT.IF(TB_table_name[col_name];"*string_to_be_found*")
But I need to count only filtered cells.
I've found may solutions (using SUMPRODUCT) on internet, but only to common cells and not table conlumns.
This is the kind of table that I have:
As you can see, there are many values in the same cell (It happens because it is generated automatically by a survey made in MS Forms). Because of this, I need to search for a specific string to be counted.
Using "COUNT.IF" I have this results:
Please observe that the values in the cell are not random, but predefined - of course the sequence could not be the same, but the list of possible terms are.
Please, can you help me figure this out? Belive me, I have tried many things but nothing worked and it seems to be a thing so easy to achieve :(
The trick is to combine a couple of the ideas you found using SUMPRODUCT.
You likely found this reference (or one just like it) that gave guidance for a formula like this:
=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(B2:B7,ROW(B2:B7)-MIN(ROW(B2:B7)),,1))*(B2:B7="Quality"))
Which translates to your problem-space like this:
=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(TB_table_name[col_name],ROW(TB_table_name[col_name])-MIN(ROW(TB_table_name[col_name])),,1))*(TB_table_name[col_name]="*string_to_be_found*"))
This works perfectly fine if you're NOT using a wildcard search. But that's what you need. So in this answer it shows that the wildcard in a SUMPRODUCT needs to use the -- operator. So the result is to combine the two answers and you get:
=SUMPRODUCT(SUBTOTAL(3,OFFSET(TB_table_name[col_name],ROW(TB_table_name[col_name])-MIN(ROW(TB_table_name[col_name])),,1))*(--(ISNUMBER(FIND("string_to_be_found",TB_table_name[col_name])))))
Notice that the string_to_be_found does NOT have wildcard * specifiers. That's taken care of by the FIND function.
I am trying to do an Offset/Match or Index/Match type formula to find the value that matches a cell. The problem is the way the sheet is laid out.
For an example I am trying to match the Job No. to the Project Name under the appropriate client.
I would like to keep it in this format because the project list will grow.
This sheet is where my lists are kept.
*This is just being created hence why the Project lists are tiny.
This sheet will be an ever expanding list of stuff that needs to be done.
You can see the OFFSET formula below that I tried. Is there another way of doing this or can this be done with a simple formula (instead of a long IF statement for each Client)?
=OFFSET(D2,MATCH(D3,Lists!F3:P10,0),MATCH(J2,Lists!F3:P3,0))
Thanks for any feedback.
=VLOOKUP(D3,OFFSET(Lists!$E$4:$E$10,,MATCH(C3,Lists!$F$2:$P$2,0),,2),2,0)
It seems a bit more awkward to do it with INDEX/MATCH because you have to repeat the column lookup, but here it is
IFERROR(INDEX(INDEX($F$4:$P$10,,MATCH(C3,$F$2:$O$2,0)+1),MATCH(D3,INDEX($F$4:$P$10,,MATCH(C3,$F$2:$O$2,0)),0)),"")
First post, but I am stuck and was hoping for some help. What I am trying to do is use a nested IF formula to determine whether the value returned by a VLOOKUP matches specific text on another sheet in the same workbook. If it does, to then use the COUNTIFS function to determine the sum of instances that specific text contained in a specific cell appears on another sheet (also in the same workbook).
One part of these formulas seems to work, but when I combine it with others, it errors and I can't figure out why.
It's probably something simple, but I'd appreciate any help. Here's the part that seems to "work"
=IF(VLOOKUP($A3,'Sheet1'!$B:$D,3,FALSE)="All",
(COUNTIFS('Sheet2'!$U:$U,'Sheet3'!$A3,'Sheet2'!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY")
+
(COUNTIFS('Sheet2'!$R:$R,'Sheet3'!$A3,'Sheet2'!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY")))
If I put one more parenthesis, it works as is, but seems to omit some of the "All" Vlookup results... thus why I put works in quotations above. That might be an issue with my spreadsheet though, but felt I should include in case I'm just being idiotic. Regardless, when I input two additional IF statements, it errors.
The final formula I've crafted looks like this (double spaced for ease of reading only):
=IF(VLOOKUP($A3,'Sheet1'!$B:$D,3,FALSE)="All",
(COUNTIFS('Sheet2'!$U:$U,'Sheet3'!$A3,'Sheet2'!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY")
+
(COUNTIFS('Sheet2'!$R:$R,'Sheet3'!$A3,'Sheet2'!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY")))),
IF((VLOOKUP($A3,'Sheet1'!$B:$D,3,FALSE)="One",
(COUNTIFS('Sheet2'!$U:$U,'Sheet3'!$A3,'Sheet2'!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY")),
IF((VLOOKUP($A3,'Sheet1'!$B:$D,3,FALSE)="Two",
(COUNTIFS('Sheet2'!$R:$R,'Sheet3'!$A3,'Sheet2'!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY"),
IF((VLOOKUP($A3,'Sheet1'!$B:$D,3,FALSE)="Three",
(COUNTIFS('Sheet2'!$U:$U,'Sheet3'!$A3,'Sheet2'!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY")),"0"))
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Just cleaned up some bracketing. Let me know how it goes as I didn't alter the formula otherwise.
=IF(VLOOKUP($A3,Sheet1!$B:$D,3,FALSE)="All",
COUNTIFS(Sheet2!$U:$U,Sheet3!$A3,Sheet2!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY")+(COUNTIFS(Sheet2!$R:$R,Sheet3!$A3,Sheet2!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY")),
IF(VLOOKUP($A3,Sheet1!$B:$D,3,FALSE)="One",
COUNTIFS(Sheet2!$U:$U,Sheet3!$A3,Sheet2!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY"),
IF(VLOOKUP($A3,Sheet1!$B:$D,3,FALSE)="Two",
COUNTIFS(Sheet2!$R:$R,Sheet3!$A3,Sheet2!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY"),
IF(VLOOKUP($A3,Sheet1!$B:$D,3,FALSE)="Three",
COUNTIFS(Sheet2!$U:$U,Sheet3!$A3,Sheet2!$C:$C,"MM/DD/YYYY"),"0"))))
