I have two data from two different file, first file is from SHU.xls like this, data in C8:C1484
id
=========
198610030
199210037
199210038
199410020
199410042
and from ikprmeidet13.xls, data in B2:B1040
id name
===================
200210046 MARINA
200110026 ERRIE
200110031 KANAE
200210061 SHIINA
I want to copy data (id and name) from ikprmeidet13.xls that doesn't exist in SHU.xls, I tried this, but it doesn't work
=IF((VLOOKUP([ikprmeidet13.xls]ikprmeidet13!$B$2:$B$1040;$C$8:$C$1484;1;FALSE)<>$C$8:$C$1484);[ikprmeidet13.xls]ikprmeidet13!$B$2:$B$1040;"")
I put that function in cell A1489 in SHU.xls, when I tried to evaluate formula, vlookup got an error, is there any other way to do this?
Append a copy of one list to a copy of the other then identify and remove duplicates to suit. Say use:
=VLOOKUP(C1485,C$1:C$1484,1,FALSE)
to identify id matches (display id) or not (display #N/A), filter to select rows containing the formula showing an id and then delete them.

I'm trying to return data from multiple tables based on a date. Each table has employee schedules with different tasks and I'd like to join these on a master output sheet that is dynamic with a formula.
=IF(A27=I27,FILTER(Employee 1,(Employee 1[Day]=D27)*(Employee 1[Name]=A27),"NA"),IF(A27=I28,FILTER(Employee 2,(Employee 2[Day]=D27)*(Employee 2[Name]=A27),"NA")
The above formula works if I toggle the employees name in a drop down list, but I'd like to have a "All" option that pulls in all of the employee names into the filter.
Something like this (the syntax is not correct):
=FILTER(Employee 1,Employee 1[Day]=D27),FILTER(Employee 2,(Employee 2[Day]=D27)))
Here is a photo of the summary I'm trying add a "all" option in the drop down.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Very 1st of All, You are not allowed to use space in table names So, i changed your table names from Employee 1 and Employee 2 To Employee_1 and Employee_2
Now You can Use this formula to get the required result
=LET(name1,I27,name2,I28,tabname1,Employee_1[Name],tabname2,Employee_2[Name],daycheck1,Employee_1[Day]=D27,daycheck2,Employee_2[Day]=D27,x, FILTER(Employee_1,(daycheck1)*(tabname1=name1)), y, FILTER(Employee_2,(daycheck2)*(tabname2=name2)),rows1, COUNTIFS(tabname1,name1,Employee_1[Day],D27), rows2, COUNTIFS(tabname2,name2,Employee_2[Day],D27),myrows, SEQUENCE(rows1+rows2),cols,(IFERROR(COLUMNS(x),COLUMNS(y))),mycols, SEQUENCE(1,cols),IF(A27=I27,x,IF(A27=I28,y,IF(A27="All Employees",IF(myrows<=rows1, x, INDEX(y, myrows-rows1, mycols)),"NA"))))
Hope this works for you
I have three numeric fields named A,B,C and wants them in a single filter in tableau and based on the one selected in that filter a line chart will be shown. For e.g. in filter Stages B column is selected and line chart of B is shown. Had it been column A selected then line chart of A would be displayed .
Pardon my way of asking question by showing a image. I just picked up learning tableau and not getting this trick any where.
Here is the snapshot of data
Create a (list) parameter named 'ABC'. With the values
A
B
C
Then create a calculated field
IF ABC = 'A' THEN [column_a]
ELSEIF ABC = 'B' THEN [column_b]
ELSEIF ABC = 'C' THEN [column_c]
END
Something like that should work for you. Check out Tableau training here. It's free, but you have to sign up for an account.
Another way without creating a calculated field. Just pivot the three columns to rows and your field on which you can apply filter is created. Let me show you
This is screenshot of input data
I converted three cols to pivots to get data reshaped like this
After renaming pivoted-fields column to Stages I can add directly this one to view and get my desired result.
I would like to grab the first rows of all CSV files in a folder. I have read that power query would probably be best.
I have gone to Excel > Data > Get Data > From Folder > OK. That has brought me to a table of all the csvs in the folder. I would like to grab the first row of all of these files. I do not want to import all rows of the tables because it was way too many rows. It is also too many tables to do one by one. Please tell me what I should do next. Thank you!
First image is where I am, Second image is where I would like to be
The approach below should give you a single table, wherein each column contains a given CSV's first row's values. It's not exactly what you've shown in your second image (namely, there are no blank columns in between each column of values), but it might still be okay for you.
You can parse a CSV with Csv.Document function (which should give you a table).
You can get the first row of the table (from the previous step) using:
Table.First and Record.FieldValues
or Table.PromoteHeaders and Table.ColumnNames
(It would make sense to create a custom function to do above the steps for you and then invoke the function for each CSV. See GetFirstRowOfCsv in code below.)
The function above returns a list (containing the CSV's first row's values). Calling the function for all your CSVs should give you a list of lists, which you can then combine into a single table with Table.FromColumns.
Overall, starting from the Folder.Files call, the code looks like:
let
filesInFolder = Folder.Files("C:\Users\"),
GetFirstRowOfCsv = (someFile as binary) as list =>
let
csv = Csv.Document(someFile, [Delimiter=",", Encoding=65001, QuoteStyle=QuoteStyle.Csv]),
promoted = Table.PromoteHeaders(csv, [PromoteAllScalars=true]),
firstRow = Table.ColumnNames(promoted)
in firstRow,
firstRowExtracted = Table.AddColumn(filesInFolder, "firstRowExtracted", each GetFirstRowOfCsv([Content]), type list),
combined =
let
columns = firstRowExtracted[firstRowExtracted],
headers = List.Transform(firstRowExtracted[Name], each Text.BeforeDelimiter(_, ".csv")),
toTable = Table.FromColumns(columns, headers)
in toTable
in
combined
which gives me:
The null values are because there were more values in the first row of my ActionLinkTemplate.csv than the first rows of the other CSVs.
You will need to change the folder path in the above code to whatever it is on your machine.
In the GUI, you can select the top N row(s) where you choose N. Then you can expand all remaining rows.
We have a spreadsheet that gets updated monthly, which queries some data from our server.
The query url looks like this:
http://example.com/?2016-01-31
The returned data is in a json format, like below:
{"CID":"1160","date":"2016-01-31","rate":{"USD":1.22}}
We only need the value of 1.22 from the above and I can get that inserted into the worksheet with no problem.
My questions:
1. How to use a cell value [contain the date] to pass the date parameter [2016-01-31] in the query and displays the result in the cell next to it.
2. There's a long list of dates in a column, can this query be filled down automatically per each date?
3. When I load the query result to the worksheet, it always load in pairs. [taking up two cells, one says "Value", the other contains the value which is "1.22" in my case]. Ideally I would only need "1.22", not the title, can this be removed? [Del won't work, will give you a "Column 1" instead, or you have to hide the entire row which will mess up with the layout].
I know this is a lot to ask but I've tried a lot of search and reading in the last few days and I have to say the M language beats me.
Thanks in advance.
Convert your Web.Contents() request into a function:
let
myFunct = ( param as date ) => let
x = Web.Contents(.... & Date.ToText(date) & ....)
in
x
in
myFunct
Reference your data request function from a new query, include any transformations you need (in this case JSON.Document, table expansions, remove extraneous data. Feel free to delete all the extra data here, including columns that just contain the label 'value'.
(assuming your table of domain values already exists) add a custom column like
=Expand(myFunct( [someparameter] ))
edit: got home and got into my bookmarks. Here is a more detailed reference for what you are looking to do: http://datachix.com/2014/05/22/power-query-functions-some-scenarios/
For a table - Add column where you get data and parse JSON
let
tt=#table(
{"date"},{
{"2017-01-01"},
{"2017-01-02"},
{"2017-01-03"}
}),
add_col = Table.AddColumn(tt, "USD", each Json.Document(Web.Contents("http://example.com/?date="&[date]))[rate][USD])
in
add_col
If you need only one value
Json.Document(Web.Contents("http://example.com/?date="&YOUR_DATE_STRING))[rate][USD]
I need help.
It seems all macros I stumble upon on this website require me to write out all the rows I'm concatenating and merging. I was wondering if I could do this with a while or if statement. In the meantime,
I need to merge a table of over 21000 names (more than half of which are duplicates) but each name duplicate either has data that the original is missing, or vice versa or sometimes has different data under each column and I need to merge them. There are also like 34 (up to AF) columns.
Thanks,
Eddie

So after consulting with someone who helped through a comment I wrote this java-based pseudocode. Could someone help me translate it to VBA while I start to learn VBA myself? Also could they verify that it theoretically works? I'd like to have this done by the end of the day, which is why I'm asking for translation help, but I'm planning to be able to do this on my own in the near future.
//Create primary keys for comparison, using the last cell as PK for easy line finishing
//Create concatenation comparison keys (conKey) to compare cells and merge
//import new sheet and create cell location to write to new sheet.
Create PK1 = (cell) AF1
Create PK2 = (cell) AF2
Create conKey1 = (cell) A1
Create conKey2 = (cell) A2
Create newSheet = [a new sheet]
Create writeLine = A1
//Initialize while loop. This list lasts until it reaches the last person's name
While(conKey2 <= maxClient) {
//Initialize the if statement. It finds out whether merge is necessary
If(PK1.equals(PK2)) {
//Initialize while loop. This lasts until PK1 no longer equals PK2
while(PK1.equals(PK2)) {
//Initialize if loop. It checks to see if the values are not equal. if so, it concatenates into conKey1
if(!conKey1.equals(conKey2)) {
conKey1 = concatenate(conKey1,", ",conKey2)
}
//Export cell to writeLine of newSheet. Shift everything to the right. verify writeLine equals conKey1
//Clear the doubled cell for safe keeping and to assist us in closing the while loop.
exportTo(newSheet.writeLine, conKey1)
conKey1.shiftsRight
writeLine.coordinates(equals(conKey1))
conKey2 = ""
conKey2.shiftsRight
}
//After this while loop is finished, delete the blank row.
//coordinates of PK1 and PK2 should remain the same at this point
deleteRow(PK2)
//If the merge was not necessary it will skip all of that above and shift each variable down a row.

If SQL is a solution and MAX value of all values is an accepted value... then using an ODBC, a defined table and a self reference may work..
Select Formulas then define name
Define the range of existing data
Select where you want the combined results to display (for example Sheet 2 (A1) instead of sheet 1)
Save the workbook
Select data then from other sources.
select data connection wizard
Select ODBC DSN
Select Excel Files
Find the file saved
Now select the new table (the one defined in step 1)
and complete the wizard.
Go to data menu
Properties
click connection properties button
select definition tab.
modify command text to fit needs
It takes data from sheet 1 such as this:
And provided the wizard is completed (steps 5-11) and then the SQL updated in step 16 you'll get something like
.
This is the command text I used. since it's SQL it can be altered to fit your needs max, concat, whatever
Select firstName, MiddleName, LastName, max(attrib1), max(attrib2), max(attrib3), max(attrib4)
From `yourPath&FileName.xlsx`.`YourDefinedName`
GROUP BY firstName, MiddleName, LastName
