I´m trying to wirte a code and need some help.
I´ve managed to write parts of it using many sources around the web, but got to a point where I can´t find something to use as model or maybe find the right function.
I have an excel workbook with 2 worksheets, on the first one I have data from income and payments. With the code below I´ve managed to sort out the payments by eliminating blank cells from a range on "Plan1" and then copied to the other worsheet - "Plan2"
On Plan2 I get the following results:
Now, as you may see most of the codes are ending in "01".
What I need is:
After selecting column C; - done
Get all the values and search for them on Plan1, but removing the trailing "01" from them (since they vary in length) before search and then color the results on Plan1.
Advices please.
EDIT: I need to ignore the lines that do not end on "01". The full column will be selected.

I'm fairly new to VBA, and have found this to be a great resource. I understand enough to generally find someone else's code and modify it to what I need it to do, but I've been stumped here. I've tried coding this several times in different ways, but can't seem to get it to work, and am not overly convinced I'm approaching it the right way to start with. I'm hoping someone is willing to help me.
Here's a theoretical example of what I'm trying to do.
I have a sheet that contains groups of orders of a certain product type with their quantities listed by the step of the process they're currently at:
Current orders in process
I need to "sort" them or re-order them so that:
1. The orders are copied into a tab based on process step, with the furthest process step being listed first working back to the closest, and...
2. Orders listed in the "complete" step need to be excluded completely, and...
3. I need to do this for multiple product types, which have different numbers of process steps, so the end column needs to be identified somehow (as a dynamic variable, or some trigger)
For the example, it would look like this:
Sorted data
I've thought through a half-dozen ways to logically go about this and tried to figure out how to then do that with code, but I'm stuck ... and I have the feeling that there is probably 1 or 2 "best" ways to go about this that someone in this community probably knows off the top of their head. Thank you in advance.
Edit: Here's my first attempt at coding the outline. I realize there are some components missing, but would love feedback on whether this seems to be a usable, or efficient approach.
Sub test1()
Dim skuStartRow As Long, skuEndRow As Long
Dim qty As Integer
Dim colCheck as long, lastCol as Long
skuStartRow = .Range("A:A").Find(what:=sku, after:=.Range("A1")).Row
skuEndRow = .Range("A:A").Find(what:=sku, after:=.Range("A1"), searchdirection:=xlPrevious).Row
' Code here to identify last column (lastCol) either by .UsedRange or by header?
For colCheck = 3 To lastCol
For rowCheck = skuStartRow To skuEndRow
qty = Cells(rowCheck, colCheck).Value
If qty <> "" Then
'copy current row and paste into destination worksheet
MsgBox qty 'test to see if correct qty is displayed
End If
Next rowCheck
Next colCheck
End Sub
Update:
Still having problems.
I've copied/pasted the whole range of orders based on product type to a new sheet where it will be sorted.
I've inserted a column and used the match/index formula provided by Variatus (autofill down) to create an index column.
Insert new column and use RANK function to create a rank ordered list, as there are duplicates in the Helper/Index column.
Used INDEX/MATCH functions to return values into rank ordered lists for both work order number and quantity value.
The code I currently have works - except that it's hard-coded using FormulaRICI = ... commands. I'm having major challenges figuring out how to convert the code to allow use of MATCH/INDEX functions with variables. I need to do this b/c depending on product type there are varying amounts of total orders, as well as varying amounts of number of steps; so I need to have a dynamic range for both rows/columns.
I've looked at a bunch of examples but can't seem to find something that works correctly. The most promising I've seen appears to be using the "replace" function in VBA, but my head's about to explode.
Any suggestions are much appreciated.
I wonder if you really need VBA for this. Please consider these steps.
Insert a column in your worksheet with this formula in row 2, copied down.
=IFERROR(MATCH(TRUE,INDEX($D2:$I2<>0,0),0),0). The range D2:I2 is defined by D2 = Step 1 and I2 = "Complete". The formula finds the first non-blank cell in the range. The column could be hidden.
Sort the sheet on the helper column, largest to smallest.
Apply a filter.
Filter on the product.
What you see at this point is the list you wish to create using VBA, however including the 'Complete' column and any other columns to the right of it.
There are a number of ways of automating this process. You might write code to either insert the formula in the helper column automatically or its result. This could be done when needed, without having a permanent extra column. You could write code to do the sorting and filtering automatically, for example, based on a currently selected product. And, finally, you might write code to copy the result to another sheet, remove the unwanted columns there, and restore the original sheet to its original condition (presumably sorted by order number).
I'm trying to Query some data in my spreadsheet, returning a manufacturer based on product code. We code our products with a three digit suffix that corresponds to different customers. I know the codes but people viewing the sheet may not.
Right now, I'm trying to split the suffix from the product and perform the wuery in the same formula.
I can do this in two steps, splitting the suffix from the code and querying just the suffix, but I want to know if I can do this all in one code. My current formula returns the data I want but it does not fill the entire range of the sheet. I would rather have this happen automatically as the workbook will be dynamic.
My current formula is:
=QUERY(CxSeries,"select B where C CONTAINS '"&right(Code,3)&"' ")
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/190kom4q0XOJP4UdLTJpZf5tuJCQTflcuokRp_FJ4pBc/edit?usp=sharing
I'm not sure if query is the right way to go about this, but I'd prefer to stick to that (just because i honestly can't wrap my head around ArrayForumlas).
Thank you,
Clear all formulas you have in column C and enter in C7
=ArrayFormula(vlookup(regexextract(D7:D16,"-(\d+)$")+0, {Sheet5!C6:C,Sheet5!B6:B}, 2, 0))
I’m trying to search for a workbook name and find any ID numbers in one of 13 columns, and if there is a match, place an ‘X’ in a cell on another sheet. Since a picture is worth 1000 words, I’m posting a couple images to illustrate the point.
I have a small UDF that strips out numbers from alpha-numeric cells. This gives me an ID number. In a few cases, I do need an alpha-numeric ID, like LQ2. Anyway, I want to look for these IDs in any row in 13 columns and get the workbook name from the same row.
Then, I want to match this against the same workbook name in another sheet, and if an ID is found in any of those 13 columns, put an x in the cell where the workbook name and ID intersect.
I tried to pivot the data, but I couldn't get it working. I'm thinking that some kind of pivot solution should work. Either a code solution or a formula solution would be great. I'm trying to put together a VBA script that, hopefully, will get me close. I'll post back when I have made more progress on this.
My thanks to all.
Quick update: I tried a double match, like this . . .
=MATCH($B2&C$1,'Tasks & Remarks Split'!$Q$2:$AC$966&'Tasks & Remarks Split'!$A$2:$A$966,0)
This is CSE-entered. I thought it would pickup the matches, but it returns all #N/A results. Something is off here, because I know there are several matches. Can someone offer a tip?
I ended up doing a sumproduct against 2 criteria and if the count is >0 then put an 'X' in the cell. It seems to work just fine.
=IF(SUMPRODUCT(--('Tasks & Remarks Split'!$A$2:$A$966=C$1)*('Tasks & Remarks Split'!$Q$2:$AC$966=$B2))>0,"X","")
I am trying to achieve the following in Google Spreadsheets.
First, I want to query several ranges (in different sheets from the same spreadsheet). I tried a formula like this =query(arrayformula({indirect(E2:E10)}),"select * where Col1 <>''") with no success
In E2:E10 I have a list of ranges. Column F contains a name that describes the source of the value in Column E.
My second problem is that I need to add a column to the output of that query that tells me the origin of each row.
If the sources are ranges of 3 columns by country I need to merge those tables and add that country to each row.

"I just want to start of by saying that the indirect() function does not work in an arrayformula() function as expected. So you will need to take another approach. I can understand what you are trying to do so I added another TAB in your spreadsheet to demonstrate another approach. I know it was initially a specific design you were trying so I made some changes to what you had. Maybe you can take a look at what I have offered and maybe you can tweak your design.
I know what I am offering is just very rough but you will also notice that I removed the end row specifier from your ranges in the range table.
Don't assume my example to be the final result but I was just trying to show that the range you were trying to use with the indirect() function will not work.
So hopefully this will give you a new idea of how you can maybe handle this.
My formula also adds the country to each of the tables in the output. My formula looks like this
=query(ArrayFormula({
if(len(indirect(regexextract(F2,"\w+\!\w+")&":A")),G2,),indirect(F2);
if(len(indirect(regexextract(F3,"\w+\!\w+")&":A")),G3,),indirect(F3);
if(len(indirect(regexextract(F4,"\w+\!\w+")&":A")),G4,),indirect(F4);
if(len(indirect(regexextract(F5,"\w+\!\w+")&":A")),G5,),indirect(F5);
if(len(indirect(regexextract(F6,"\w+\!\w+")&":A")),G6,),indirect(F6);
if(len(indirect(regexextract(F7,"\w+\!\w+")&":A")),G7,),indirect(F7)
})," select * where Col1 <> '' ")
Hope this is of some help to you"

I have a Worksheet with 10 columns and data range from A1:J55. Col A has the invoice # and rest of the columns have other demographic data. Goal is to type the invoice number on a cell and display all the rows matching the invoice number from col A.
Besides auto filter function, the only thing comes to my mind is VBA. Please advice what is the best way to get the data. Thanks for your help in advance.
Alright, I'm pretty proud of this one. Again avoiding VBA, this one uses the volatile formula OFFSET to keep moving its VLOOKUP search down the table until it's found all matches. Just make sure you paste enough rows of the formula that if there are many matches, there's room for all of them to appear. If you put a border around your match area then it would be clear if you ever ran out of room and needed to copy down the formula some more.
Again, in the main section, it's just a single formula (using index):
=IFERROR(INDEX($A$1:$J$200,$M3,MATCH(N$2,$A$1:$J$1,0)),"")
This gets to be so simple because the hard work of the lookup is done by an initial column which looks up the next row that matches the invoice number. It has the formula:
=IFERROR(MATCH($L$2,OFFSET($A$1:$A$200,M2,0),0)+M2," ")
Here is the working example that goes with those formulas:
Let me know if you need any further description of how it works, but it mostly uses the same rules as above so that it's robust in copying and moving around.
I've uploaded the Excel file so you can play with it, but everything you need to reproduce this feature should be in this solution.

A popular solution to this problem is a simple VLookup. Lookup the invoice the user types in on the table A1:J55, and then return an adjascent column's data.
Here's an example of it working:
The formula in the highlighted cell is:
=VLOOKUP($L3,$A:$J,MATCH(N$2,$1:$1,0),FALSE)
What's nice about this formula is you only need to type it once and then you can copy it across and it'll automatically pick out the correct column of the table (that's the match part). The rest is very simple:
The first part says lookup value $L3 (the invoice number typed in),
The second part says look it up in range $A:$J (which is where your table is located). I've shown how you can select the entire columns $A:$J so that you can add and remove data without worrying about adjustin the range in your lookups. (Excel takes care of optimizing the formula so that unused cells aren't checked)
The third part picks the column from which the resulting data will be drawn once a matching row is found.
The FALSE part is an indication that the invoice number must match exactly (no approximate matching allowed)
The $ signs ensure that fixed ranges like the location of your source table ($A:$J) and your lookup value ($L3) don't get automatically changed as you copy the formula across for multiple columns.
The formula is pretty easy to adapt if you want to move around your table and the area where you do your lookup. Here's an example:
Bonus
If you want to add a little spiff, you can add a dropdown to the Invoice # field so that the user gets auto-completion and the option to browse existing values like so:
