I have a table with three columns of data. I am using drop down menus for the first two columns. What I would like to do is have a cell that would match the names in the two drop down menus to find the correct data in the third column. An example is: Launch Location, Takeout Location, and % on BLM are the column headings. I have drop down menus for the first two columns with 19 names in each. The third column is a % number that corresponds to name selection in the first two columns. Such as "Prospect, Big Creek, 12.17%". I would like to be able to choose two locations and have the % equal to the two selected names.
Put this in C45 and copy down
=VLOOKUP($H47,$A$24:$T$42,MATCH($J47,$A$23:$T$23,0),FALSE)

After a series of macros I am left with two tables. One of stock on System 1, and one of stock on System 2. The lay out is as follows:
Item-Id | BatchCode | Stock
My question is: Is there any way to match up entries? i.e. If the three values match, do something (highlight, delete, hide)
My goal is to isolate the entries where the stocks don’t match etc.
Both tables are of different sizes and probably contains something the other does not.
Another issue is that there can be multiple identical entries in each table, which breaks Match values from two tables in excel Vlookup solution.
If this is a one off procedure, and you just need the final list of unique entries:
Copy all the values into a single list.
Highlight all three columns of data.
Select the "Data" tab.
Click "Remove Duplicates".
This will remove all the duplicates, leaving you with a list of unique values.
It will also tell you how many duplicates were removed.
really need some professional ms excel guru, I'm working in small company HR and we have a list of names of our clients and employees (3000 names give or take) with their salary by the side,
now our management wants to add like say "bonuses" to the salary but don't want to add it directly to it's cell but a column next to the "salary's" column,
I've drawn a chart of basically what I'm talking about, I know it's doable or any way of comparing a list of our employee's name and adding additional columns to the employee's row?
Example Of Workflow
Create a named range by the name of "BonusList", anywhere in the same workbook as the list of salaries. That list should consist of 2 columns, the first of which has the names, the second the bonus.
Use this formula in the column where you want the bonus to appear (the new column).
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP($A3, BonusList,2,FALSE),"")
Make sure that the names are in column A of the salary list. You can change the column, if the names are in another column. Make sure that the row in which you paste the first formula is aligned with the row in the formula (here it is row 3). Copy down.
The formula will display a blank if the name from the salary list isn't found in the bonus list.
I have a sheet with 4 columns of data. The first two columns show the name of a stock, followed by a PipDigit. These two values are connected and must not be seperated. The other 2 columns are another set of stock names and accompanying PipDigits. I want to do several things:
First, compare the stock names in each column and arrange it in such a way that matching stock names are aligned. The columns have different lenghts.
Second, I want another column to display which matching stocks have different PipDigit values. For example if for an Ebay stock I have a PipDigit of 2 in the first set of columns, and a PipDigit of 4 in the second set of columns, I would like to see message saying "different" or something similar. I have included a screenshot of the file.
If anything is unclear please let me know
This is the file in question
I believe from your question you are looking for the corresponding record in columns E/F for the 'Symbol' in column A.
The easiest way to get this data would to perform a VLOOKUP on the first column, looking at the data in columns 3/4.
In cell C2 you want the following formula:
=VLOOKUP(A2,E:F,2,FALSE)
This will give you the corresponding pip-digit from column F.
Now in cell D2, enter the following formula:
=IF(B2=C2,True,False)
This will give you a column telling you whether the pip digits match.
Drag these two formulas down to replicate for each row of the table on the left.
Currently I am forming a dataset in excel. With the dataset, I am going to do the panel regression using stata(fixed effect model).
However, I cannot change people's names into their unique IDs. In my dataset, I have name in column B, and I want to generate a new column A with corresponding numbers to names in column B. Doing manually is not an option for me since the number of data is larger than 1,000. Two particular problems I encounter are that names are in Korean so the number of characters are mostly the same, and there are same people in different rows. Is there any method that I could use?
If I understand you question correctly, I would do following.
Step 1: Used the Advanced Filter to filter on unique names
You can place these results on the same sheet or on a different sheet (as per Scott Craner's comment). Both options are listed below
Filter Names on the same sheet
Select all the data in column B, then click Data > Sort & Filter > Advanced.
Select the option to Copy to another location, Select a blank cell in column B location at the very bottom of your worksheet, several rows away from your data (since you won't be able to paste the results to a new sheet), and then select Unique records only. Then Click OK
Filter Names on a different sheet
Add a new sheet and the click Data > Sort & Filter > Advanced.
Select the option to Copy to another location
Set the "List range" to the column on your dataset sheet containing the names, and Set the "Copy to" range to B1 on your new sheet
Select Unique records only and then Click OK
This will paste a new range that has all the unique names in your list.
Step 2: Assign unique IDs to the names in the unique list
This can easily be done by entering '1' in the Column C cell next to the first name in the unique list, '2' next to the second name, selecting those two cells, and then clicking the bottom right corner of the selected cells and dragging it down to the bottom of the unique names list
Now you have a range (i.e. unique names and IDs) that you can use VLOOKUP to populate an ID column in your data set
Step 3: Use VLOOKUP to populate IDs for the rows in your dataset
For example, If your unique names and ID is in the range B1200:C1500, then you can enter the following formula in the first row of your dataset in column A (what you want to be the column with your unique IDs)
=VLOOKUP(B2, $B$1200:$C$1500,2,0)
After you drag this formula down your entire dataset, you'll now have the correesponding unique ID for each name.
Step 4: Cleanup
Copy your column A (should be all VLOOKUP formulas) and paste Values only so you don't have the formulas there anymore
Delete the unique data and IDs range at the bottom of sheet (or the new sheet you created to do this)
I am trying to look up the value in one column and pull the number from another column.
Of course, I could use the simple V-lookup or Match.
However, the first column of data has multiple entries that are the same. If I Vlookup it is just going to pull the first number in the second column.
I need to pull each number from the second column and somehow add them together. Despite the fact I have multiple entries.
If there is a way to consolidate the multiple entries in 1st column while also summing up the numbers in the 2nd, that would be great.
I would recommend a Pivot Table. To create one, select a cell in your data range (which needs to have column names in the first row. Choose Insert / Pivot Table from the Ribbon and select the New Worksheet option for the location.
In the Pivot Table list on the new worksheet, drag the name of the first column to the Row Labels box and the name of the second column to the Values box. The name in the Values box should turn to Sum of <2nd column name>.
The Pivot Table will now show a sorted list of the column 1 values and the summed values of column 2. In the example, you'll see that
Does SUMIF do what you are looking for?
