I am trying to do an excel formula calculated response in regards to comparing the values of three cells.
I have three cells and if one or more cell is populated with a value of greater than "0" I want it to return mix and if false ignore
Yes, actually you're correct you'll need to use COUNTIF or IF. The function IF should be good enough depending on your formula.
Please try to use the formula how I had in illustrated in my image. =IF(D3>TODAY(),"YES","NO"), your formula would be different depending on your values or if you're using dates.
If you're not using dates you can still just use IF plus the AND functions like this "=IF(AND(B3,C3,D3)<="","TRUE","FALSE")", see my linked file to see how I did it. Good luck!
Tip, you can check for "0"(a number) or ""(which means blank).
Check Value in 3 Cells for TRUE-FALSE example in excel.
Screenshot that might help understand how I use '=IF(AND...' Functions to do just what you originally asked.
To answer the revision to your question I would recommend referencing Microsofts resource on CONCAT function Combine text and numbers
Conversely, I've worked out an example for you. =IF(E4>0,(CONCAT("YES: B4:D4 ="," ",(TEXT(C4,"MM/DD/YY"))," + ",(TEXT(D4,"MM/DD/YY"))," + ",D4," Total Days")),"NO") which references my example screen shot here:
The use of "IF" plus the "CONCAT" function to return the mix of three or more cell values.
I have an excel sheet with different columns with all have the value Yes or No. I want in my last column a formula that extract a result of all the previous columns.
If all the values are No, the result has to be No
Is one or more values Yes, the result should be Yes
I don't know which formula I can use for that. Can someone help?
=IF(COUNTIF(A1:C1,"Yes") > 0,"Yes","No")
Change A1:C1 to the range of interested columns
Try using OR function. you can get syntax https://support.office.com/en-us/article/OR-function-7d17ad14-8700-4281-b308-00b131e22af0
You just need nested OR functions for each column. Here's a sample with 3 columns:
=OR(A1="yes",OR(B1="yes",C1="yes"))
For additional columns, add another OR around the existing, with one argument testing the this code, and then add your new column as the other argument.
I'm working on a sensitive Excel file where I'm not allowed any VBA code, so I have to help myself with basic formulas in Excel. Please note that I am not allowed to add extra columns and the solution has to be in one single cell. What I have are two columns:
Column A has numbers from 1-10.
Column B has numbers from 1-10.
I'd like to know e.g. for all 3's in A, how many 5's are in B.
The result would be as well seen with the use of two filters, but I don't want to do this over and over again, since the size of the columns will only get bigger.
I tried to use INDEX-MATCH command in the COUNTIF, but it's not that simple. The main problem is to define how to look and search in each row and then count/sum/whatever.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Though a function not available in versions of Excel before 2007, it seems:
=COUNTIFS(A:A,3,B:B,5)
met the requirement here.
I would like to create a succinct Excel formula that SUMS a column based on a set of AND conditions, plus a set of OR conditions.
My Excel table contains the following data and I used defined names for the columns.
Quote_Value (Worksheet!$A:$A) holds an accounting value.
Days_To_Close (Worksheet!$B:$B) contains a formula that results in a number.
Salesman (Worksheet!$C:$C) contains text and is a name.
Quote_Month (Worksheet!$D:$D) contains a formula (=TEXT(Worksheet!$E:$E,"mmm-yy"))to convert a date/time number from another column into a text based month reference.
I want to SUM Quote_Value if Salesman equals JBloggs and Days_To_Close is equal to or less than 90 and Quote_Month is equal to one of the following (Oct-13, Nov-13, or Dec-13).
At the moment, I've got this to work but it includes a lot of repetition, which I don't think I need.
=SUM(SUMIFS(Quote_Value,Salesman,"=JBloggs",Days_To_Close,"<=90",Quote_Month,"=Oct-13")+SUMIFS(Quote_Value,Salesman,"=JBloggs",Days_To_Close,"<=90",Quote_Month,"=Nov-13")+SUMIFS(Quote_Value,Salesman,"=JBloggs",Days_To_Close,"<=90",Quote_Month,"=Dec-13"))
What I'd like to do is something more like the following but I can't work out the correct syntax:
=SUMIFS(Quote_Value,Salesman,"=JBloggs",Days_To_Close,"<=90",Quote_Month,OR(Quote_Month="Oct-13",Quote_Month="Nov-13",Quote_Month="Dec-13"))
That formula doesn't error, it just returns a 0 value. Yet if I manually examine the data, that's not correct. I even tried using TRIM(Quote_Month) to make sure that spaces hadn't crept into the data but the fact that my extended SUM formula works indicates that the data is OK and that it's a syntax issue. Can anybody steer me in the right direction?
You can use SUMIFS like this
=SUM(SUMIFS(Quote_Value,Salesman,"JBloggs",Days_To_Close,"<=90",Quote_Month,{"Oct-13","Nov-13","Dec-13"}))
The SUMIFS function will return an "array" of 3 values (one total each for "Oct-13", "Nov-13" and "Dec-13"), so you need SUM to sum that array and give you the final result.
Be careful with this syntax, you can only have at most two criteria within the formula with "OR" conditions...and if there are two then in one you must separate the criteria with commas, in the other with semi-colons.
If you need more you might use SUMPRODUCT with MATCH, e.g. in your case
=SUMPRODUCT(Quote_Value,(Salesman="JBloggs")*(Days_To_Close<=90)*ISNUMBER(MATCH(Quote_Month,{"Oct-13","Nov-13","Dec-13"},0)))
In that version you can add any number of "OR" criteria using ISNUMBER/MATCH
You can use DSUM, which will be more flexible. Like if you want to change the name of Salesman or the Quote Month, you need not change the formula, but only some criteria cells. Please see the link below for details...Even the criteria can be formula to copied from other sheets

You might consider referencing the actual date/time in the source column for Quote_Month, then you could transform your OR into a couple of ANDs, something like (assuing the date's in something I've chosen to call Quote_Date)
=SUMIFS(Quote_Value,"<=90",Quote_Date,">="&DATE(2013,11,1),Quote_Date,"<="&DATE(2013,12,31),Salesman,"=JBloggs",Days_To_Close)
(I moved the interesting conditions to the front).
This approach works here because that "OR" condition is actually specifying a date range - it might not work in other cases.
Quote_Month (Worksheet!$D:$D) contains a formula (=TEXT(Worksheet!$E:$E,"mmm-yy"))to convert a date/time number from another column into a text based month reference.
You can use OR by adding + in Sumproduct. See this
=SUMPRODUCT((Quote_Value)*(Salesman="JBloggs")*(Days_To_Close<=90)*((Quote_Month="Cond1")+(Quote_Month="Cond2")+(Quote_Month="Cond3")))

Speed
SUMPRODUCT is faster than SUM arrays, i.e. having {} arrays in the SUM function. SUMIFS is 30% faster than SUMPRODUCT.
{SUM(SUMIFS({}))} vs SUMPRODUCT(SUMIFS({})) both works fine, but SUMPRODUCT feels a bit easier to write without the CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER to create the {}.
Preference
I personally prefer writing SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(MATCH(...)))) over SUMPRODUCT(SUMIFS({})) for multiple criteria.
However, if you have a drop-down menu where you want to select specific characteristics or all, SUMPRODUCT(SUMIFS()), is the only way to go. (as for selecting "all", the value should enter in "<>" + "Whatever word you want as long as it's not part of the specific characteristics".
In order to get the formula to work place the cursor inside the formula and press ctr+shift+enter and then it will work!
With the following, it is easy to link the Cell address...
=SUM(SUMIFS(FAGLL03!$I$4:$I$1048576,FAGLL03!$A$4:$A$1048576,">="&INDIRECT("A"&ROW()),FAGLL03!$A$4:$A$1048576,"<="&INDIRECT("B"&ROW()),FAGLL03!$Q$4:$Q$1048576,E$2))
Can use address / substitute / Column functions as required to use Cell addresses in full DYNAMIC.
I am trying to compare two different Excel (2010/xlsx) tables with related data to find matches. They would be on different sheets but in the same workbook (not that it should affect the problem).
I think the best route is some combination of sumproduct, match, and index... but I haven't been able to get them to work so far. I see the main question (cell G17) being solved by creating a subset of rows from Table 2 to compare against their corresponding data in Table 1 (index/match), then using arrays to do a multiple criteria selection to count how many match the criteria I chose (sumproduct).
I have played around with vlookup, countif(s), and sumif(s) but haven't seen a good way to apply them to this problem.
You can use SUMIF as a "quasi-lookup" like this
=SUMPRODUCT((file="doc")*(modified < SUMIF(user,creator,create)))
I'm not sure how to do it in a single cell as you've asked, but I would create an extra column in the second table which uses vlookup to find the created date, and another column containing whether or not the created date is greater than the modified date. Finally, you could use countif to combine them.
To be more concrete, in your example, I would put =vlookup(F3,A$3:D$5,2,FALSE) in cell I3, and =I3>H3 into cell J3, and expand both of these down. Then cell G17 could be given by =countif(J3:J5,TRUE).
