I am trying to address a specific cell of which I am not sure of neither row nor cell number. For instance, I would like to find row, which first column contains "211001" and column which contains "vybr. obd.". Then select the cell that corresponds to these: 123,00.
Is it feasible to address the rows like this?
Let's assume simple table:
Let's also assume the item number you want to look up is in B8 and the Metric to look up in B9.
Spreadsheets doesn't support wildcards in match statements but we can create a range that contains the extracted values with REGEXEXTRACT:
=INDEX($A$2:$D$5,
MATCH(B8 & "", ARRAYFORMULA(REGEXEXTRACT($A$2:$A$5, $B$8 & "")), 0),
MATCH(B9, $A$1:$D$1, 0))
In your case where the data is on the next row just add a + 1 to the second parameter of index.
B8 & "" is done because we need to coerce the field into a string without changing its representation.

I have a Google sheet which has a column for business name (A) and a column for city (B). I would like to set conditional formatting such that if the city name is contained within the business name on the same row, the business name will be highlighted.
list example
Every row contains different business/city data, and there are thousands of rows. I need one formula that will work for the whole sheet.
I know how to do it if the city name and business name are exactly the same =$A$2:$A=$B2, but struggling to figure out how to do it if just a portion matches. Putting an asterisk before $B2 broke the formula.
=REGEXMATCH ($A2,$B2) would do the work too!
Use SEARCH:
=AND(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(TRIM(B2),A2)),B2<>"")
with range starting from A2. You search if A2 contains text from B2 and returns starting number if found. So if it is a number then ISNUMBER returns TRUE
Result:
I'm struggling with writing the proper syntax for this formula in Google Sheets. In one sheet called Game Log, in the H column I have data that can be a range of names (1 - 10 names per row). I'm trying to construct a COUNTIF statement that would search for the name in all the rows for that column. There can be several other names in the same column so I need to use the wildcard * to find any occurrence of the name in each row. So for example, the current code below would count all occurrence of Adam in the rows.
=COUNTIF('Game Log'!H3:H102, "*Adam*")
What I would like to do is replace the hard codes "Adam" with a cell reference (in this case B2). Is it possible to combine that cell reference with the wild card? The know the code below doesn't work (as it would return text counting occurrences of B2), but is something like this possible?
=COUNTIF('Game Log'!H3:H102, "*B2*")
Have you tried something like this?
=COUNTIF('Game Log'!H3:H102, "*" & B2 & "*")
That ought to look for any string value, followed by the cell value, followed again by any string value. It's essentially just performing separate checks, in sequence, which allows you to search for different value types (in this case string wildcard + cell value + string wildcard).
Essentially I am trying to find the sum in column A that corresponds to names distributed in the array to the right. Below is a picture of what I am trying to do and what my formula is as of now. Please let me know either how to modify my formula or how to restructure my data.
enter image description here
use:
=INDEX(TRANSPOSE(QUERY(SPLIT(FLATTEN(IF(B2:G14="",,B2:G14&"×"&A2:A14)), "×"),
"select Col1,sum(Col2) where Col2 is not null group by Col1 label sum(Col2)'Totals'")))
Here is a formula I came up with that can accomplish this:
=sum(filter($A$2:$A$11, arrayformula(REGEXmatch(ARRAYFORMULA((IF(ROW($A$2:$A$11)=1,"formulaTest",$B$2:$B$11 & $C$2:$C$11 & $D$2:$D$11 & $E$2:$E$11 & $F$2:$F$11))),B13))=TRUE))
This formula should be placed in the cell below Name1, next to Totals, and then copied across the row under each name. The cell references should be changed to match your sheet/needs. Anything with $ before it defines either the duration column, or each column that contains the names. The last cell reference (B13) is a reference to the cell that contains the name you are looking to total. A screenshot of an example of this is shown at the bottom of this answer.
In simple terms, this formula combines the names from each row into a single string (per row), searches for each name within that combined string, filters the duration value if there is a match, and then sums that value.
Hope this helped! Let me know if there is anything I should explain further or better clarify.
I have hundreds of sheets, with one master sheet, and I have this formula in my master sheet
=IF(COUNTIF(Sheet2!M$2:M$11,"No")>0, "Y", "N")&COUNTIF(Sheet2!M$2:M$4,"No")&COUNTIF(Sheet2!M$2:M$7,"No")&COUNTIF(Sheet2!M$2:M$11,"No")
which basically grabs the number of yes or nos in a column from the referenced sheet, in this case 'Sheet2', and returns Yes, if there are multiple NOs in the column, and the other arguments just return the count of NOs in the cell ranges.
I just want to drag down the formula in the column it is located in, and have the Sheet reference change from Sheet2 to Sheet3, Sheet4, and so on, but it simply copies it down the column. I've tried looking into it, got some hints with using INDIRECT but I'm returning errors left and right that I'm not sure if I'm on the right track.
EDIT: sample data: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jcbjUs4Ho0LlXF-Olu5NkEw4THqaA0nB5dduYKfx5S8/edit?usp=sharing
I have successfully used below formula to count "No's" using a sheet reference from a cell. Try it out:
=IF(COUNTIF(INDIRECT("Sheet" & A1 & "!" & "A:A");"No")>0;"Y";"N")
You can change the column range to suit your need - I just used column "A" in each sheet and cell "A1" with the sheet reference, in the above case A1 contained the number 2 referring to "Sheet2".
You can replace the Sheet2!M$2:M$11 with the following:
INDIRECT("Sheet"&ROW()-1&"!M$2:M$11")
You have of course to replace the M$2:M$11 with the respective range references.
We have a Google Sheet doc which contains a date column with each date as a row value, and also multiple columns (some of which have the same name) and we want to sum the values in the cells where the row is a specific date, and the column has a specific header. For example where the date is 01/03/2017 we want to sum all the values which have the column header "X" on that date. Can this be done?
Yes it can be done
=SUMIF($C$3:$J$3,"X",OFFSET(C3:J3,MATCH(B1,B4:B15,0)+3,0))
Broken down
=sumif($C$3:$J$3 [<-header row with X],"X" [<-what we're looking for],C3:J3 [<-row to sum])
the formula above will sum the header row if there is an "X" (not very useful)
I used offset(C3:J3,[row number],0) with the header row range to push it down to the row matching 01/03/2017
To get the row number of 01/03/2017 I used Match() and put 01/02/2017 in cell B1
MATCH(B1,B4:B15 [range of dates] ,0)
I add 3 becuase my range starts at 4
You can hard code the date into the formula by replacing B1 with
DATEVALUE("01/03/2017")
I've not tried this in Google Sheets as I don't have access at the moment but it works in Excel and I'll try it in Sheets later.
Here's the formula that you can paste into A2 on your sheet "Sum of Data"
=SUMIF(Data!$B$1:$J$1,B$1,OFFSET(Data!$B$1:$J$1,MATCH($A2,Data!$A$2:$A,0),0))
It's all about changing the original formula to match your data and also locking the ranges correctly with the $ so that it will autofill down and across without breaking.
Use INDEX to peel off the appropriate column for SUMIF.
=SUMIF(A:A, G4, INDEX(A:E, 0, MATCH(H4, 1:1, 0)))
Considering a sheet where:
Cell B1 contains the date of interest (e.g. 01/03/2017)
Cell B2 contains the header of interest (e.g. X)
Cell B3 returns the sum of interest (values of all columns with header "X" on 01/03/2017)
Row 4 contains the headers to be evaluated (e.g. "Date", "A", "B", "X", "C", "X", "D")
Subsequent rows contain the actual data (e.g. dates in column A and data in columns B:G)
Refer to the image on the link below for details:
Example with cells of interest highlighted in yellow
The following formula should return the expected result:
=SUMIF(4:4,B2,INDEX(A:G,MATCH(B1,A:A,0),0))
I used Google Sheets in Portuguese. So, the formula actually tested was:
=SOMASE(4:4;B2;ÍNDICE(A:G;CORRESP(B1;A:A;0);0))
I hope that was usefeul.
