• VLOOKUP invalid reference

  I don't know why I have a problem with this simple VLOOKUP formula. It seems that it should work, but I find no reason why it wouldn't.

  

  Hi Tim,.

  You attempt to VLOOKUP works using a syntax that is "kind of like ' the SEARCH syntax.

  SEARCH (image search-search for, - where the result values)

  RESEARCH (B4, CHECKLIST OF OFFICE SPREADSHEET - 1::B, OFFICE - 1::H BOX SPREADSHEET CHECKLIST AREA)

  The VLOOKUP syntax is quite different:

  VLOOKUP (search - range of columns, return-column, fence-match)

  VLOOKUP (B4, OFFICE SHEET CHECKLIST - AREA 1::B:H, 7, close match)

  The syntax for each function supported by numbers is available in the function browser, which opens like a sidebar as soon as you type a = in a cell. The best way to make sure you use the correct syntax is getting enough of their name into the search box on the browser, and then double-click the function you want from the restricted list to place the function and syntax clues in the selected cell. Then replace each mark with the necessary values in your formula.

  Kind regards

• VLOOKUP gives incorrect/unexpected results

  HI guys

  I used to think I had this spreadsheet thing down pat, but I find myself place after midnight with a VLOOKUP problem struggle! I really hope that you can show me the error of my ways...

  I'm a convert from Excel so I can be taken in a mind control thing. I built a fairly large things relating of worksheet to do a lot of hobbies. I give it to the people who do the same kind of thing I do. It calculates the SOAP making tips, but I just found out that he gets things wrong - that is potentially dangerous.

  

  I have a version simplified that what is happening in the picture above. In the F2 cell I: VLOOKUP (E2, values: results, 2, the search by proximity-match).

  Now, I expect the numbers look down column B to find the value in cell E2 (1.90) and return the corresponding value of the C column (19.0). However, it does not. Instead, it provides the value of the cell above as if it could not find a match.

  I tried every setting I can think of nothing doesn't. I put all the cells in the table above to a number to 2 decimal places. I even changed the exact match and close match but that just made things worse.

  I know it's going to be something that will make me to get started me, but I need to fix no will not hurt. Any help gratefully received.

  Cheers, Grant

  PS I think I should mention that I do this on an iPad 2 air which is a bit new for me. And I just noticed I have write in figures for Mac. I'm sorry for that but I think that the versions are supposed to have the same capabilities?

  I suspect that you use calculated values, rather than hand is entered in your "Search values" column, and even if you have formatted the column to display two decimal places, due to approximations that occur when doing calculations decimal on a computer using binary mathematics, the actual values using the VLOOKUP function differ slightly as many additional decimals on any line. If you wrap each calculation in a function to change the actual value with 2 decimal places, if the cell contains exactly what your put poster in the form, you will get the desired result.

• VLOOKUP works not in number 3.6.1

  Hello

  First time in this forum, but I have had a reading thoroughly through similar problems, but they don't did not help me. I'm sure I'm missing just something simple here, but I'm getting the red triangle when I use the VLOOKUP function with 'Exact match' criteria into numbers 3.6.1 OSX Didier 10.10.5. Even when you use 'Fit nearby', I get unexpected results. I made sure that all the columns are in text format and even tried to use numbers formatted in previous attempts. I can't blame just not find it! Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

  

  Hi TickHogan,

  VLOOKUP() will search your value in the left column and returns the value in the column to return. So if the columns A and B have been cancelled in your example, all would be well.

  I took to the use of the INDEX MATCH to my research needs. It gives me better control, and I think it's (slightly) less consume a lot of resources.

  

  Depending on where you are using MATCH() in the INDEX() formula you can use this to a HLOOKUP() also.

• Help with VLOOKUP!

  Hi all, I hope one of you can help as done my nut!

  I have the following formula in cell H26. = VLOOKUP(G25,mattress,2,False) * G26
  The problem is that when there is nothing in the cell G25 then "-" appears. I need to be zero as the default value. Is this possible? !
  Any help please would be great that this glitch is causing other formulas don't work :-(
  Thank you in advance the wise gurus o!

  Try wrapping it in a function SIERREUR and zero if the value is found.

  SIERREUR = (VLOOKUP (G25, mattress, False, 2), 0) * G26

• You are looking for a function similar to the VLOOKUP function

  My boss wants me to find a way for a quote PDF form automatically pull a price and a description of an excel file according to a number that you enter in a cell.  I do this in excel with a VLOOKUP all the time, but I found no way to do it with a PDF file.  Personally, I think that's not possible, but my boss is relentless in thinking it is.  Can you help me?

  It would be much easier to implement if you moved the data to a worksheet in an appropriate database, such as access. You can use Acrobat or LiveCycle Designer, but you will find probably more examples of using Designer out there. With Acrobat, you should use JavaScript and the various methods of ADBC, but the learning curve is a bit steep.

• Nested formula helps VLOOKUP/IF/AND/SUM?

  Hello

  I use 3.6.2 on an iMac numbers to make a spreadsheet of accounts for my partner who is independent and desperate self with its accounts.

  The worksheet aims so he could enter its revenues and expenses (and easily), then for the spreadsheet sort the data in the months/years, etc., which can then be calculated as profit/loss etc. As he was loose with his accounts and catch up, I thought it would be convenient and save countless piles of sorting on the floor of the reception hall! Formulas combos I've tried so far, however, do not work! So I was hoping someone with more knowledge could enlighten us.

  So far, I have created 3 main leaves, revenue, expenses and exercises (as pictured below).

  For each month in the year, I would like to that it search for "revenue" "Billing month" and "Year" then add UP the values in "amount paid".

  For example, for April 2015 - search ' April' AND ' 2015/16 ' SUM then all the "amount paid values" meets the criteria to end up with a monthly income total. I tried a range of formulas, but nothing seems to work properly, but I'm sure it's possible and logical, right? What do you think?

  The same thing that I hope for expenses. Research of the month & year (that I happen to be the same as the sheet of revenue) and total monthly SUM for the corresponding values. I could also fit the same formula for categories, to then make a table to see where spending will etc.

  I'm used to some basic formulas and can see the logical way to pursue this goal, but do not have the know-how to achieve this more complex formula! Hours in google didn't really help either! the syntax and exclamation error still appear somewhere!

  If anyone has any suggestions/advice form, they would be very appreciated! I am happy to share the final worksheet (if everything will work well) with any such freelancers / small businesses that have similar problems with soft accounting!

  Thank you very much

  Hi clrey,

  I would like to recommend SUMIFS() as your go to formula to obtain a total of say, "bindings" on April 16.

  Give it a try and after return with specific questions, if things do not work as expected.

• Need to combine the two VLOOKUP formulas and SO, tried several variations... not getting what I need.

  Hi, thanks for the review, any help is appreciated.

  The problem.

  I am creating a spreadsheet to download information to a database.

  The database is very picky and all the blank cells cannot contain a zero but should be empty because some cells contain the URL of the image.

  A '0' instead of a string with a .jpg extension will throw an error.

  In general, I use an 'IF' statement to achieve this:

  = IF (A1 = "", "", A1)

  It works like a charm. However, I changed the map and now the cells have a 'VLOOPUP' function to draw the other worksheet data.

  If the target cell has no data the host cell will express a '0 '. This will raise errors on the upload.

  I tried to embed the two formulas without success. Is it possible to combine the two forms, or is there another solution to draw the other worksheet data and if the receiving cell has no data to express an empty cell / VIRGIN instead of a '0 '.

  If you need an example let me know.

  I hope it's clear.

  I suspect this is related to MS Office Excel.  If I'm not mistaken, please repost this in the MS Office category for the version that you are using the category at the top of the page tab

• Is it possible to use formulas (for example 'if' or VLOOKUP functions) in the "custom calculation Script?

  I'm working on a PDF form fill converted from MS excel. It is for others to use who do not have MS excel required to use my spreadsheet.

  1. I would like to know, how can we have complex formulas being the custom tab calculation script calculate under properties in a menu of cell?

  2. where can I find it that the formulas will work in the calculation script custom as well as the format of these formulas work properly (tutorials would help)?

  I tried to write an 'if' function but I get and error so I guess that is functions do not work in the script, or there is a different format of spreadsheet standard formats.

  .

  In this case the loop would be:

  for (var i = 0; i)< 8;="" i="" +="1)">

  sum += + getField("Total."_+_i).value;

  }

  So initially, the counter i is zero, so the domain name used with the getField method is:

  'Total': + 0, which results in the string "Total.0". At each iteration, the variable i is incremented by 1, so the following field names are the following:

  "Total.1".

  "Total.2".

  'Total.3 '.

  'Total.4 '.

  'Total.5 '.

  'Total.6 '.

  "World.7.

  The script gets the value of each field, it converts numbers and adds the number to the cumulation.

• Time series: finding max and min for each month

  Hello world. I'm working on a datasheet that has collected the data points for all day for the past 15 years.

  A column stores the date and column B contains a numeric value.

  I want to do the following:

  Create a new table (call it table #2) that:

  (1) is now a time series on a monthly basis (column A contains "year month"). This is why the table contains a header and 15 * 12 = 60 rows of data

  (2) B Col contains the Max value of this month.

  (3) C Col contains the value this month min

  Table #2 should be calculated automatically because I need to find these values for several series. Any ideas?

  Here is a way that I came up with

  

  In the table above, your original data is in columns B and C.

  I've added three additional columns (A, D and E):

  D2 = Year (B2) & NUMTOBASE (MONTH (B2), 10, 2)

  It's shorthand dethrone select D2, and type (or copy and paste it here) the formula:

  = Year (B2) & NUMTOBASE (MONTH (B2), 10, 2)

  E2 = IF (D1≠D2, 0, E1 + 1).

  Select copy of D2 to E2,

  Select cells D2 at the end of column E, block

  A2 = D2 & NUMTOBASE (E2, 10, 2)

  Select A2, copy

  Select A2 at the end of the A2 column, paste

  now create a second table summary as shown:

  

  For 'Summary Table 2016:

  the first four lines are the lines of header

  There are 35 total lines

  Enter the year in cell B1

  A5 = −4 LINE)

  B5 = SIERREUR (VLOOKUP ($B$ 1 & NUMTOBASE(B$4,10,2) & NUMTOBASE($A5,10,2), data: $A:$ C, 3, 0), "")

  Select cell B5, copy

  Select cells B5 at the end of row 5, dough

  Select A5 thru M5, copy

  Select cell A5 at the end of the M column, paste

  B2 = MIN (B)

  B3 = MAX (B)

  Select the cells B2 to B2, copy

  Select the cells B2 through M3, dough

  now duplicate the table and change the year to 2015 for the next year.

  You can duplicate this table as necessary to summarize a year

• Commission on track based on the number of sales

  I got a new job (yay!) and I'm trying to follow my commissions. I am paid by a combination of production and the number of sales that I produce. Here is a small picture to show what I mean.

  Number of sales	Payout rate
  1	6%
  2	7%
  3	8%
  4	9%
  5	10%
  6	11%
  7	12%
  8	13%

  Let's say that each sale, the customer pays $2,000 to keep things simple. The first sale, I would win $120, the second sale I now would get $140 for each because it is retroactive (does sense?) without the hat. How would actually follow it in numbers? Thanks in advance!

  This may work for you:

  

  the first line of the two tables is a header row

  them 4 last lines of the table 'sales' on the right are the lines of footer

  (The first line of the footer) B8 contains the formula:

  = SUM (B)

  shorthand is

  B8 = SUM (B)

  B9 = MIN (COUNTA (A), COUNTA (B))

  B10 = VLOOKUP (B9, sales bonus::A:B, 2, 0)

  B11 = B8 × B10

• Automatic filling of the order of the day

  Hello

  I am trying to automatically fill in an 'order of the day"a"graphical task"as pictured below.  When the date of the order of the day is changed, I would like to as tasks and details of my task card to automatically fill in the order of the day.  Any ideas what formula that I use to get this working?  I worked on it for a few days now, but I can't seem to find the right combination of formulas to make it work.

  

  Thank you

  David

  This can do the trick:

  

  Add a column in the list of tasks as shown above - this column should be the column A now.

  A2 = if (AND (B2 = agenda: $ 1, COUNTA(B2:D2) > 2), MAX $B ($A$ 1: A1) + 1, "")

  It's shorthand dethrone select cell A2, and then type (or copy and paste it here) the formula:

  = IF (AND (B2 = agenda: $ 1, COUNTA(B2:D2) > 2), MAX $B ($A$ 1: A1) + 1, "")

  Select cell A2, copy

  Select cells A2 at the end of the column, paste

  now in the table "Agenda" I suggest merge is NOT the cells in the first row.  My example suppose you follow this advice, and there are two lines:

  -Enter the date in cell B1

  A3 = IF ((LIGNE () −2) ≤MAX(Task Chart::A), LINE (−2), ' ')

  B3 = IF (A3 = "", "", VLOOKUP (ROW (−2, Task Chart::A:D, 3, 0)) ")

  Select cell B3, copy

  Select cell C3, dough

  Select cells A3 to C3, copy

  Select cells A3 at the end of the C column, paste

  now change the text you have in cell B1 of table "Agenda" as needed.

• reminder of column of numbers

  Hello

  I use v3.6.1 numbers.

  We have a database of all the equipment that we have lines indicating the brand, model number, serial number, description price per day and so on.

  What I want to be able to do is to create an invoice on a separate sheet and enter the model number in the appropriate column on the invoice, then carry the numbers automatically complete the rest of the information.

  Is this possible?

  I hope that makes sense.

  This may work for you:

  

  The table below is your database of equipment for rent AND is called "Equipment"

  The table on the right is an example of invoice that pulls its information from the database.

  For the table on the right...

  A2 = if (counta(B2:C2) > 1, LINE (−1), ' ')

  It's shorthand dethrone select cell A2, and then type (or copy and paste it here) the formula:

  = IF (counta(B2:C2) > 1, LINE (−1), ' ')

  columns B and C are when you enter the information (in this example the columns are white shaded where you enter information)

  D2 = if (A2≠"", OFFSET (Equipment::A$ 1, MATCH (C2, Equipment::B, correspondent-method) −1, 0, rows, columns), ' ')

  E2 = if (A2≠"", VLOOKUP ($D2, equipment: $A:$ F, GAME (E$ 1, equipment: $1: $1, method of correspondence), 0), "")

  Select cell E2, copy

  Select cells E2 through H2, dough

  I2 = IF (A2≠"", H2 × B2, "")

  Select cells A2 to I2, copy

  Select cells A2 at the end of the column I, dough

  You can add a footer for the total bill amount and calculate the tax and other things.  If you need assistance with this.
