Hello, I would be happy help, but I think I need to get some more clarification on the situation. In what way did the data change? Also, did you get an error when trying to use "range of cells" as the name of the range? Reason why I am asking is because spaces are not allowed to be used in a named range.

Great question! What I would do in that particular situation is create a helper column to extract the dollar amounts into a separate column then sum up the helper column. Going along with your example, in cell B1 insert this formula: =NUMBERVALUE(RIGHT(A1,LEN(A1)-FIND("$",A1))) This formula extracts all the characters to the right of the "$" sign and converts it into a number. Copy this formula down to cell B2 and then add a simple SUM formula to total up the column: =SUM(B1:B2) I hope this helps and please let me know if you have any further questions!

Great video...I need help man.....I am trying to do something very very very simple but I can't seem to figure it out. I have two columns of data. One column A with sentences and one column B with numbers. All I want to do is use sumif() to search column A for a specific string and add the numbers in column B together every time it finds an instance of my specific string in column A. But.........the problem is that I can't figure out how to make it look for my string specifically........example.....If I want to search column A for the string "pot"......I want to find every instance of the word "pot"......I don't want to include "pots"......"potted"....."spot"....."spotted"....etc.........for the life of me I can't figure it out.
@skyxcel60803 жыл бұрын
Hello, I am not sure what you have in your formula, but if you are using the wildcard symbols "*" around the string "pot", e.g. "*pot*", that is most likely the cause of incorrect results. The formula should be as follows: =SUMIF(A1:A5,"pot",B1:B5). This will only sum the cells in column B that just have the string "pot" in column A. Please let me know if you have any further questions!

@@skyxcel6080 Thank you for the reply. Yes, that does not work for my application...Column A1:A5 has sentences in it like "succulent pot", "3 inch pot for plants", "white planter pots", "small plants for potting". And I cannot simply put "pot" in my SUMIF formula because It will then look for cells with ONLY the word "pot".....so, if I put "*pot*"....that does find every instance that "pot" is used...but it will also include "pots" and "potting" which I do not want. I have found a very cumbersome workaround though....I can use =ISNUMBER(FIND(" pot ", " "&A1:A5&" "))......this will look for ONLY the word pot and return a column with TRUE or FALSE values in it....I can then use this "helper" column with SUMIF and sum up all of the values in my number column where the corresponding column is TRUE.....this works very well......BUT sucks.....and it seems like the solution should be very very simple.

@@fosterchild4523 Ahh I see. I would be careful with your current formula because you are looking for "pot " and if "pot" is used at the end of the string with no space following it Excel will not catch that. Try this formula out: =SUM(SUMIF(A1:A4,{"*pot *","* pot"},B1:B4)) For some reason this comment is removing some of my (*) marks, so I will wrap them in parenthesis (*), but remove them once you get the formula in Excel. =SUM(SUMIF(A1:A4,{"(*)pot (*)","(*) pot"},B1:B4)) This formula looks for two instances "pot " with a trailing space and " pot" with a leading space. Give this a shot and let me know how it goes!

Thank you for the information sir. I would like to see if there is a way to apply the same method for several columns? I have a sheet where I input my monthly expenses and I separated it by months. So each month has it's own expenses in different column. Is there a way to get a sum for a specific expense, let say (GAS)? I would really appreciate it if you could help me. Other wise the way I do it now I get a sum for each month and then add up all those numbers to get a sum of all. That's taking a long time to put the same equation for each month over and over again. =SUMIF(A3:A25,"*"&AI5&"*",B3:B25)+SUMIF(C3:C25,"*"&AI5&"*",D3:D25) - this is what I use. but I have to do it for 12 months. Is there a shortcut for achieving the same result?

Hello, my apologies for the delayed response. I think it really depends on how your spreadsheet is set up. Exp Jan Exp Feb House 1800 Gas 160 Gas 150 Food 400 Phone 50 Water 75 If it is set up like this then what you are doing is correct. Exp Jan Feb House 1800 1800 Gas 150 200 Phone 50 50 If you can set it up like this where you only write the expense once, you can use this formula: =SUMPRODUCT((A2:A4="Gas")*(B2:C4)) A2:A4 being the range you want evaluated and B2:C4 being the range you want to sum. This is just me assuming how your spreadsheet is set up, so my answer may not be sufficient for your purpose, but if you would like to provide any extra details I will be happy to assist!

How can I do this formula to sum without a letter being in front of the numbers? Please help.
@skyxcel60803 жыл бұрын
Hello, In this example, let's use the first item # in the video "S101A". For your scenario, without the letter in front it would be "101A". If we were still trying to sum the quantity for any string of text that contains "101" then all we would have to do is remove the first asterisk mark (*) in the equation like so: =SUMIF(C4:C11, "101*",D4:D11). If there are no trailing numbers or letters following "101" then we would need to remove both asterisk marks because there are no characters before or after the sting of text that we are searching for. I hope this helps and please let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks!

@skyxcel60803 жыл бұрын
Hi Hammad, for this particular scenario I would suggest using the COUNTIF function. The only two arguments this function needs is the Range, which are the cells you want evaluated and the Criteria specifying the condition. Ex: =COUNTIF(Table Range, "TEXT"). Remember to use the "*" mark as a wildcard before and/or after your text value if you are looking for a string of text at the beginning and/or the end of a text value. Please let me know if you have any more questions, thank you!

How can i add up a long row, but only add up the values that are formatted as dollars? I tried your formula with "*$*" to only pick cells with a dollar sign on them. That didn't work.
@skyxcel60802 жыл бұрын
Hello, great question. It was a good thought to try to use "*$*", but the reason why that did not work is because the $ is not actually part of the value, it is just how the cell is formatted. For example, if you click on a cell that is formatted as a Currency (e.g. $10) you will only see 10 in the formula bar without the $ sign. There is really no great way to get around this, but we have a few options. Option 1: Create a function or macro with VBA. Option 2: Create a helper row to specify the format of a specific cell. EX: Let's say in Row 1 you have 5, $10, 15, $20 In Row 2 (the helper row) you can use this formula to specify the cell formatting: =CELL("format",A1). Now in Row 2 you should see G, C0-, G, C0- Then in your output cell where you want to sum all the cells that have a Currency format you can use this formula: =SUMIF(A2:D2,"C0-",A1:D1) The total should be 30. I hope this helps and please let me know if you have any further questions!

Can you help me? HSPW-0000 this is employee number P= Philippines & W= worker. Please tell me formula that I write employee ID and get its Nationality
@skyxcel6080 Жыл бұрын
Hello, if "HSPW-0000" is in cell A1 then a basic formula would be: =IF(FIND("P",A1),"Philippines"). This formula states that if the letter "P" is found within the text in cell A1 then output "Philippines". However, this formula may only work for certain situations, if there is another employee number that contains the letter "P", but has a different meaning then this formula will not work. Depending on how many different forms the employee numbers can be in the formula may need to be tweaked to account for different scenarios. If the nationality is always defined by the 3rd character in the string I would suggest setting up a nationality key in a table form with letters in one column and the associated nationality to that letter in another column like so: (Column D, Column F) E, English F, French G, German Then use the MID function to extract/look at the 3rd character of the string and combine the VLOOKUP function to output the nationality associated to that letter using the table: Employee Number (cell A1) = HSFW-0000 Formula: =VLOOKUP(MID(A1,3,1),$D$1:$E$3,2,0) = French I hope this helps or gives a sense of guidance to an appropriate solution.

@skyxcel60802 жыл бұрын
Okay this one is a little tricky, so I am going to split it up into pieces stating what each part of the formula does then combine it all into one formula. So in cell A2 we have: (10kg x 10mtrs)+(2kg x 30mtrs) Formula to find the number between the 1st "kg" and the 1st "(": =MID(LEFT(A2,FIND("kg",A2)-1),FIND("(",A2)+1,LEN(A2)) Formula to find the 2nd instance of "(": =FIND("(",A2,FIND("(",A2)+2) Formula to find the number between the 2nd "kg" and the 2nd "(": =MID(LEFT(A2,FIND("kg",A2,FIND("(",A2,FIND("(",A2)+2))-1),FIND("(",A2,FIND("(",A2,FIND("(",A2)+2))+1,LEN(A2)) Formula to find the number between the 1st "mtrs" and the 1st "x": =MID(LEFT(A2,FIND("mtrs",A2)-1),FIND("x",A2)+2,LEN(A2)) Formula to find the 2nd instance of "x": =FIND("x",A2,FIND("x",A2)+2) Formula to find the number between the 2nd "mtrs" and the 2nd "x": =MID(LEFT(A2,FIND("mtrs",A2,FIND("x",A2,FIND("x",A2)+2))-1),FIND("x",A2,FIND("x",A2,FIND("x",A2)+2))+2,LEN(A2)) Then last but not least we will combine all the formulas that are used to find the numbers between 2 specific characters while adding the VALUE function so we can sum text values, as well as, concatenating some text values to get it back into the same format: ="("&SUM(VALUE(MID(LEFT(A2,FIND("kg",A2)-1),FIND("(",A2)+1,LEN(A2))),VALUE(MID(LEFT(A2,FIND("kg",A2,FIND("(",A2,FIND("(",A2)+2))-1),FIND("(",A2,FIND("(",A2,FIND("(",A2)+2))+1,LEN(A2))))&"kg x "&SUM(VALUE(MID(LEFT(A2,FIND("mtrs",A2)-1),FIND("x",A2)+2,LEN(A2))),VALUE(MID(LEFT(A2,FIND("mtrs",A2,FIND("x",A2,FIND("x",A2)+2))-1),FIND("x",A2,FIND("x",A2,FIND("x",A2)+2))+2,LEN(A2))))&"mtrs)" This is the final formula you will want to use, but the others above help you break it out and see which each one is doing. I hope this helps and please let me know if you have any further questions!
