I have the below simple table:
A 1
B 2
C 2
D 1
Using an index/match formula, I have set it up so that it only looks at one row at a time.
However, when I drag this formula down and ask it to return where the second column is a 2. I receive N/A at the top and bottom of my lookup.
Is there a way for me to ask it to skip when there is a NA or return multiple rows?
Here is my code:
=INDEX(B2,MATCH(1,C2))
Which returns:
A 1 A
B 2 #N/A
C 2 #N/A
D 1 D
I would like it to return:
A 1 A
B 2 D
C 2
D 1
So skiiping rows where there is no match.
The easiest way to have it skip what the value is NA is to either put an IF statement
=If(A1 = "NA","",INDEX(MATCH))
or
If it is NA because it is not finding a match
=IFERROR(INDEX(MATCH),"")
one of those 2 should do it. If not please post your code.

Excel-Sheet:
A B C D E
1 1.200
2 Product A 500
3 Product B 400
4 Product C OK
5 Product D #NA
6 Product E 300
7
8
In the above table I have list of products in Column A and some data about the products in Column B.
In Cell B1 I want to calculated the subtotal of Column B using =SUBTOTAL(9,B2:B6).
However, now I have the issue that Column B not only consists of numbers.
It can also have the data type text (OK, NA). Therefore, the result in Cell B1 currently is #NA.
Is there any kind of formula that I could use so only the number data is considered and the result is 1.200 as in the table above?
Please note:
This function =AGGREGATE(9,6,B2:B6) won't help me because I want to filter the list later on so I need to go with the SUBTOTAL.
Use 7 as the second criterion in AGGREGATE instead of 6 as it will also exclude hidden rows:
=AGGREGATE(9,7,B2:B6)
You can solve this, combining the Excel worksheet functions =Value() and =IfERROR():
The function =Value() gives the value of a number, and in case of text it gives an error.
=IfError() can be used to give 0 in that case.
So, imagine you have following situation:
Column A Column B Column C
1 =Value(A1) =IfError(B1;0)
3.5 =Value(A2) =IfError(B2;0)
AB =Value(A3) =IfError(B3;0)
abc10 =Value(A4) =IfError(B4;0)
This gives following results:
Column A Column B Column C
1 1 1
3.5 3.5 3.5
AB #Value 0
abc10 #Value 0
You can simply take the sum of column C.
So this is based on the summary in B1.
=SUM(IF(ISERROR(B2:B6),"",B2:B6))
You need to push Ctrl+Shft+Enter for this to work.
Hope it helps.
I have data in excel in following manner.
Colname Count
A 5
B 3
C 4
I want to convert it into this way.
A 1
A 2
A 3
A 4
A 5
B 1
B 2
B 3
C 1
C 2
C 3
C 4
Based on the count i want that data must be converted into rows with increasing order. Please let me know the feasiblity .
=IF(ROW()<B$1+1,"A",IF(AND(ROW()>B$1,ROW()<SUM(B$1:B$2)+1),"B",IF(AND(ROW()>SUM(B$1:B$2),ROW()<SUM(B$1:B$3)+1),"C",""))) in F1 and fill down. In G1, this formula =IF(COUNTA(F1)>0,COUNTIF(F$1:F1,F1),"") and fill down. Letters are in Column A and numbers in Column B. I chose these columns randomly to work a solution. Change to match your actual data, if needed.
I have the following basic VLOOKUP setup, having not used Excel in anger for a while. I am looking up the values a, b and C in a table containing two columns.
<value returned> <expected>
a 1 b =VLOOKUP(A1,C$1:D$1,1,FALSE) #N/A #N/A
b 2 c =VLOOKUP(A2,C$2:D$2,1,FALSE) #N/A 2
c 3 d =VLOOKUP(A3,C$3:D$3,1,FALSE) #N/A 3
I am getting #N/A returned for all rows (as shown to the right), but I would expect the values to the right again to be returned. Can someone please explain what I have done wrong?
Thanks
If you still stick to dataset :
a 1 b
b 2 c
c 3 d
then : =INDEX($C$2:$C$4,MATCH(A1,$D$1:$D$3,0))
So if you re-arrange the data as :
a 2 b
b 3 c
c 4 d
then use : =INDEX($C$1:$C$3,MATCH(A1,$D$1:$D$3,0))
hope that helps. (:
When using VLOOKUP, the column containing the key to be matched has to be the first column on the left of the range. So change your data layout to this:
A B C D
a b 1
b c 2
c d 3
and use the following formula:
=VLOOKUP(A1, C$1:D$3, 2, FALSE)
and then it should work. As #Scott mentioned in his comment, if you want to keep your data layout the same, you could look into using INDEX.
Before I get started thanks for taking your time and helping.
This is what my worksheet looks like:
Row # B C D E F
2 1 Product 1 B2 B3 B4
3 2
4 6
5 1 Product 2 B5 B6
6 5
7 4 Product 3 B7
I was trying to follow this formula: (The best answer one or green check mark) return values from multiple matching rows
I got all the way to the =IFERROR(INDIRECT(lookups!H5),"") but can not get this to work.
What I am tying to do is order the numbers in Column B to go to the right of the product. Which I was able to get the column it is in (B) and the row number it is in (B2). I would like to change the value (B2) to the number that is there.
I would like it to look like this:
Row # C D E F
2 Product 1 1 2 6
3
4
5 Product 2 1 5
6
7 Product 3 4
If someone could help explain this to me or find a better way that would be great.
Not sure what is to happen to columnB but if you replace B with "="B throughout columns D:F then select each of these in turn and apply Text to Columns with Tab as the delimiter the 'cell references' convert to formulae referring to the values in B. If you want to delete columnB copy D:F and Paste Special, Values over the top.
I have ran into a bit of issue.
Issue:
I have 3 columns A,B,and C. I am trying to compare column A,B,and C. if column B and C are the same and A is not than I want excel to put in to column D a value of true. If B and C are not the same than just ignore and delete that row if possible if not just leave the cell blank. and if A,B, and C all are same also ignore and delete. I hope it makes sense
Visual:
A B C D
12 3 3 TRUE
4 4 4
15 10 15
3 2 2 TRUE
1 1 1
Thanks.
With cell formula you can't do operations like deleting rows - that would require VBA triggered by some action, e.g. a button.
However the following should give you your blank option:
=IF(B1=C1,IF(A1=C1,"",TRUE),"")
