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),"")

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 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.
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 two columns of data, they look something like this:
A B C D
1 2 SOME RECORD
2 6 SOME RECORD
3 10 SOME RECORD
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
So basically column A is a list of indices, where some of them appear in column C with corresponding records saved in column D. Column B is currently empty, and what I want to do is if say index 2 appears in both column A and column C (they matches), then put the record beside C2 in the cell B2. So essentially I want it to look like this:
A B C D
1 2 SOME RECORD
2 SOME RECORD 6 SOME RECORD
3 10 SOME RECORD
4
5
6 SOME RECORD
7
8
9
10 SOME RECORD
Can someone help please?!! Thanks!!!
UPDATE: I tried this and it doesn't work. The data in column D is calculated using a UDF and is refreshing every 1 second. The VLOOKUP function fails even though I can see the 2 indices are the same!! Is it because of the format of the cell or column? I.e. does vlookup compare data type as well?
Assuming your data in A starts from A1 - put in B1 the following and autofill:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP($A1,$C:$D,2,0),"")
This includes handling of missing values.
You'll want this:
B1=VLOOKUP(A1, C:D, 2, FALSE)
This will look up the value in column A within the array spanning columns C and D. It will give you the value found in the second column (D). FALSE makes it an exact match, otherwise you might get 2 and 20 matching because hey, they're kind of similar...
