I have this table of data:
A B C D E
003B1016 1 003G1016 1 003B1016
003G1015 1 003G1391 2 003G1015
003H0121 4 003H6208 2 003H0121
003H6209 1 003H6209 1 003H6209
I want to sum B+D if A and C are identical , how would i do that?
I have another 32000 rows of data. :) Thanks for the help
Put this in cell E1 and copy down:
=IF(A1=C1,B1+D1,"")
This says - if A = C, then add B+D. Otherwise, return blank "".
EDIT for new requirements
In order to add all amounts from column B where column A matches the current row and from column D where column C matches that row, where the row in column A exists anywhere and the row in column C exists anywhere, do the following formula in E2 and drag down:
=IF(ISERROR(MATCH(A2,A$1:A1)),IF(ISERROR(MATCH(A2,C:C,0)),"",SUMIFS(B:B,A:A,A2)+SUMIFS(D:D,C:C,A2)),"")
This says: look above the current row in column A - have we seen this item before? If no, continue with the formula. If yes, ignore, to avoid double counting. Then, Look at all of column C - does the value in the current row of A occur anywhere in column C? If no, then don't add anything. If yes, Add all items from column B where column A matches the current row, and add all items from column D where column C matches the current row.

I am going to do my best to describe this.
I want to search column C for any of the strings contained on a different sheet in column A, and if/when one of those strings is found, i want to return the column B that corresponds to the found string.
For example:
Sheet 1:
Column A
Column B
Column C
project 1
2/15/19
Status is Red, because....
Project 2
4/12/20
RAG- Green, PTG is....
And on another sheet I have common ways to describe their statuses in Column A, and in Column B, a simple letter R, A, G or NS (Not started) if no other common status is found.
Column A
Column B
Column C
Status is Red
R
Rag- Green
G
How can I Search Column C for a value on Column A (on a different sheet) and return column B in Column D on the original sheet?
Results should look like
Column A
Column B
Column C
Column D
project 1
2/15/19
Status is Red, because....
R
Project 2
4/12/20
RAG- Green, PTG is....
G
This may be a bit of an extended function and depends on how many rows you have in the second sheet.
You can hard code it with
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Red",C2)),VLOOKUP("Status is Red",Sheet2!$A$2:$B$3,2,FALSE),IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Green",C2)),VLOOKUP("RAG - Green",Sheet2!$A$2:$B$3,2,FALSE),"NS"))
Or use the more dynamic:
=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(Sheet2!$A$2,Sheet1!C2)),VLOOKUP(Sheet2!$A$2,Sheet2!A2:B3,2,FALSE),IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(Sheet2!$A$3,Sheet1!C2)),VLOOKUP(Sheet2!$A$3,Sheet2!$A$2:$B$3,2,FALSE),"NS"))
Explanation
SEARCH(find_text,within_text) - returns the index of where the substring begins
ISNUMBER(value) - returns TRUE if a number, FALSE if not.
VLOOKUP(lookup_value,table_array,col_index_num,[range_lookup]) - finds the value within the array and returns the corresponding value in the specified column.
$X$Y - the dollar signs stop the values from changing when you use ctrl+d or ctrl+r to fill multiple cells
So to break it down:
IF (search returns an index)
THEN VLOOKUP (find this value and return the corresponding value from this column)
ELSE (repeat above as needed)
ELSE ("NS")
I need to produce a formula, that can generate a list that follow to the below conditions,
Each letter can only appear in the same column again once the every letter in the list has been used.
If letter is in row 1 column 2 it can't be in row 2 column 1.
The same letter can't be in both columns at the same time.
Example,
List: A,B,C,D
Result,
Column 1 Column2
Row 1 A C
Row 2 B D
C A
D B
A C
Put your list in column A
then put this in the first cell, copy over one and down as far as desired:
=INDEX($A:$A,MOD((ROW(1:1)-1)+(COLUMN(A:A)-1)*2,COUNTA($A:$A))+1)
I want to check one entire column with value in another column and then assign a value in another column value to matching row cell.
Eg-
A B C D
1 10 X
2 3 Y
3 2 Z
4 11 K
What I want to do is take one value at a time from column A eg 1 and then scan through Column B if matches the Column A (value 1) then assign x to that row under D. eg if we check A3 ( value 2) with column B and found 2 is on B4 then D4 = Z. Like this I want to check all values in column in A against column B assign relevant vale from column C to Column D
How can I do this, can someone please help me.
Thanks.
Try:
= IFERROR(INDEX($C$2:$C$5,MATCH(A3,$B$2:$B$5,0)),"no match")
See below.
Try:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,$B$1:$C$5,2,0),"")
I am creating a spreadsheet for my personal use. I need to count the number of times one column's values are equal to an adjacent column's.
Is there any way to do this in Excel without having to modify the formula every time a new row is added?
If you have column A and B now, add column C:
Column A Column B Column C
1 2 =countif(B:B, A1)
2 2
3 1
Then just copy the first value in column C, select the entire column C and paste :)
You will get:
Column C
1
2
0
I have a worksheet that has information like this:
a
a
b
c
c
c
How do I format it so that all of the rows that have a value of a in the first column are one color, then all the rows that have a value of b in the first column are a different color, etc. ?
Edit not from OP to add clarification from comment:
Everything is already sorted alphabetically, and will stay that way, and I want multiple colors.
Create a helper column with a formula like this;
=MOD(IF(A3=A2,0,1)+B2,2)
In this example column A is the column of sorted values to be grouped by, and column B is the helper column. The formula is entered on row 3. Set the first row of the helper column to the value 0 and the others to the formula. This will result in alternating values in the helper column for each group, ie;
a 0
a 0
b 1
c 0
c 0
c 0
d 1
d 1
e 0
You can then set conditional formatting based on the column value. If the value is 1 then highlight the row; if it is 0 do not highlight it. Or use alternating colors or whatever. You can reference any of the articles on the web that describe how to conditional format the entire row based on the value in the column.
IF(A3=A2,0,1) compares the current row (3) and prior row (2) returning a 1 or 0.
MOD( [...] +B2,2) accomplishes the alternation between 0 and 1 when the grouping column value changes.
I think you need a helper column, say B seeded with 1 in row1, and =IF(A1=A2,B1,B1+1) in B2 and copied down to suit. Then formulae of the kind below should suit for conditional formatting:
