I am trying to create an inventory system where I input the items of a drawer as a list separated by commas along with the drawer number and google sheets returns that list as separate cells, but with the same drawer number.
This is what I have
This is what I have
and this is what I want it to return, ideally on a separate sheet. I split the text into the rows using =transpose(SPLIT(Sheet1!C3, ",")), but what I'm stuck on is filling the column to the left (the drawer number A1, A2,...) I did it manually but it would be a pain to do so for all of the drawers. Is there any way to do this using a formula?
There won't be the same number of items in each drawer.
Here's my workbook if that's helpful. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ayXmwtJ1V4LB2ANgIYXscP-_KcuTWUTzMOHOYwPM_z0/edit?usp=sharing
use:
=ARRAYFORMULA(TRIM(QUERY(SPLIT(FLATTEN(
IF(Sheet1!C2:C="",,Sheet1!B2:B&"×"&SPLIT(Sheet1!C2:C, ","))), "×"),
"where Col2 is not null")))

I have a Google Sheets workbook, have lot of data in it in the following way as shown in the picture:
So What I want to do is to highlight all rows in which LDCP > Current (Displayed in green), that is fine when I use conditional formatting and add a formula. But since there are 1000s of such rows, what I want to do is to select all and apply that formula however when I do that it highlights the rows with text such as Leasing Companies and Leather & Tanneries.
Is there a way that I can select the whole sheet and apply a formula which only is applicable where the B column (LDCP) and F Column (Current) consists of numbers. This way only those rows will be highlighted and not the other ones.
Any other kind of advice to do this would be appreciated as well.

Try this in your conditional formatting custom formula:
=and($B1>$F1,isnumber($B1))
Range A1:Fnnn where nnn is the end of your sheet.
I am using google sheets and have the following format,
I want to get Col3 from Col1 and Col2. As you can see the spaces after Col1 elements are dynamic and that is why its hard to keep track of how many rows to append.
I would have added some code, but I have no idea where to begin. Kindly give me some direction.
This is difficult to do without a sample spreadsheet but there is a chance that this works if you put it in cell C2 and drag it down column C
=IF(A2="",,TEXTJOIN(", ",TRUE,FILTER(B:B,LOOKUP(ROW(A:A),FILTER(ROW(A:A),A:A<>""))=LOOKUP(ROW(A2),FILTER(ROW(A:A),A:A<>"")))))
Formulas used:
FILTER()
ROW()
TEXTJOIN()
LOOKUP()
I have an automatically expanding google in which I am applying a Vlookup formula to extract values from another sheet matching the values from the main sheet.
This is the Vlookup formula-
=VLOOKUP(A2, IMPORTRANGE("1MNRMKGkC-c0COugUWpXOe5OxJXfmdXGboxAPhf5SaLA", "Sheet1!B3:E420"),4,0)
I want the formula to be auto applied to the new entries which get auto added in the main sheet. I used this formula I found on a website to apply this formula to the whole column also taking care of any empty cells in between.
=ArrayFormula(IF(ISBLANK(A2:A), "", VLOOKUP(A2:A, IMPORTRANGE("1MNRMKGkC-c0COugUWpXOe5OxJXfmdXGboxAPhf5SaLA", "Sheet1!B3:E420"),4,0)))
My problem is that after using this formula when a new entry is auto added to column A in the sheet, it gets added to 1001th row instead of the next non-empty row, because this formula is being applied to whole column.
Is there some way to apply the Vlookup to just be applied till last non-empty row, so that my next automatic entry gets added in the next empty row? Or any other alternative solution?
Thanks for the help!
try:
=ARRAYFORMULA(QUERY(IF(ISBLANK(A2:A),,VLOOKUP(A2:A,
IMPORTRANGE("1MNRMKGkC-c0COugUWpXOe5OxJXfmdXGboxAPhf5SaLA", "Sheet1!B3:E420"), 4, 0)),
"where Col1 is not null", 0))
Since we don't have sheet for reference assuming new data is added to new column.
Try this fromula =ARRAYFORMULA(If(A2:A="","",VLOOKUP(A2:A, IMPORTRANGE("1MNRMKGkC-c0COugUWpXOe5OxJXfmdXGboxAPhf5SaLA", "Sheet1!B3:E420"),4,0)))
This will do vlookup once there is new data in Column 'A'
Is it possible to grab the contents of a cell from one sheet and display them on another?
I have 4 sheets. And I want the cells of the third sheet to display the first column of the second sheet on the second column.
if you want to get range from another sheet just use:
Replace 'Sheet' and 'A2:C8' with title and range you want to refer
={Sheet!A2:C8}
For multiple sheets
Replace ';' with ',' for horizontal view:
={Sheet!A2:C8;Sheet1!A2:C8;Sheet2!A2:C8}
Add the sheetname exclamation point to your cell reference
e.g. sheet!A:1
Then drag from the first cell down to as many rows as you need.
Google Sheets allows reference between sheets. the syntax is pretty simple. consider a single cell: =<sheetname>!A2 for example. From there, you can drag down with the bottom right corner, and your your column will now be a copy of an arbitrary column in , in this case A
These are the annotations for cells in google sheets
Sheetname!A:1 For Relative Cells
Sheetname!$A:1 For Absolute Columns
Sheetname!A:$1 For Absolute Rows
Sheetname!$A:$1 For Absolute Cells
Yes. For specific ranges you can use IMPORTRANGE.
Is it possible to grab the contents of a cell from one sheet and display them on another?
Yes. It's even possible to get entire columns of data.
In sheet 2 A1,
=ARRAYFORMULA('Sheet1'!A:A)
The single quotes ' can be omitted, if the sheet name doesn't have a space . In other words, if you use Monthly Budget as a sheet name, then single quotes is mandatory.
Hi so I'm trying to make a spreadsheet in Google Sheets that takes two numbers and subtracts them and then does it in the next row .
So example the formula in C1 would be "subtract(A1, B1)" in the first row. But then in the next row I would like it to change to "subtract(A2, B2)" and output in C2.
(Without having to go in each C cell and change the formula of course)
So how do I do that and also how do I apply a formula to multiple cells of a row (C1,C2,C3,C4,C5, etc....)
Just put =MINUS(A1,B1) into C1 and then copy it and paste it in the remain rows of column C and the spreadsheet automatically adjusts the row numbers for you.
#Cooper's Answer above is perfect. I'm just giving a alternative here using array formulas, because it's easy.
Put this in D2
=ARRAYFORMULA(MINUS ( B2:B, MULTIPLY( 2.5, QUOTIENT(C2:C,15))))
