    Address Match and Indirect formula

    Dear all

    I would like to extract some data and develop a formula in DNO2 cell to drag left and right to extract the value. But it does not provide any value.

    Please provide your valuable feedback.

    Regards
    Shams

    Great timing on the "bump" !
    I'll take a look, but no guarantees

    Re: Address Match and Indirect formula

    it seems your announcement dates (column B) are not dates, so no possibility of a match

    Re: Address Match and Indirect formula

    Hi I have developed this formula for DNP2 cell. =IFERROR(INDIRECT(ADDRESS($DEH2,(MATCH($B2,$1:$1,0)+DNP$1),1,1)),""). But still it does not retrieve the value. DEH2 is the numeric value 2. (New column of value)

    Re: Address Match and Indirect formula

    Dear all

    I think the main problem is B2 date cell which is different format than the actual date in $1:$! row.

    Thanks

    Re: Address Match and Indirect formula

    Hi All

    =IFERROR(INDIRECT(ADDRESS($DEH2,(MATCH($B2,$1:$1,0)+DNP$1),1,1)),""). This formula works but the only problem is B2 date format. If I changed the date in B2 cell manually, it works. Please advice me how to convert the B column date into standard date format.

    Re: Address Match and Indirect formula

    I think you are missing the point, the numbers in column B are translating intonegative dates,which excel does not handle well, the third date is outside of the allowable range for dates, the other 2 look like a concatenation of cells to reach what looks like a date, then used a value to get a number, but is not a valid date, not sure how these numbers were derived, but they are not valid dates, so your match can never give a value... sorry

    Re: Address Match and Indirect formula

    There is no "esy" solution, this looks like an amalgram of formulus came up with the dates..... in first 2 you could use text functions, but the third looks like it was derived differently, so I have no "simple" way to correct them...

    Re: Address Match and Indirect formula

    Assuming all the data is derived the same way, this MIGHT work :
    in C2:
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    drag down


    EDIT-
    mistake -5 instead of -6

    no guarantees on this, but seems to work for the sample

    Re: Address Match and Indirect formula

    if you show me the formula that gives you the non-date number, we could probably give you the formula that would make it an actual date, it seems redundant to me to turn a date into a string, then turn it back into a number to use the date..., just my opinion though

    Hi Dredwolf

    You are great. You have done a great job to convert this impossible to possible. I am very happy. But I do not know why my formula does not capture the right figure yet.

    I WILL ATTACH THE FILE FOR YOUR LOOK.

    This formula in HRR2 cell does not pick the right value yet. Would you be able to have a look in HRR2 cell where it goes wrong now.

    Re: Address Match and Indirect formula

    I don't really need the file, just need to se how the value in column B is derived (ie the formula for column B0, if we can get that to be an actual date, then the rest is pretty simple, or use the C column conversion I already supplied and use that, I just think it's wasting time, memory, storage space to have re-calculate the date when it already exists...

    Re: Address Match and Indirect formula

    I use the new conversion date in my new formula and it captures some value. But the value was not correct. The value should be 0.052632 in DOT2 should be in HRS2. But HRS2 shows 0.0190 this value. How is this happening.

    Re: Address Match and Indirect formula

    Hi Drew

    I also lost where I am posting what. However good thing is that I have solved the problem. It now works to retrieve the data

    =IFERROR(INDIRECT(ADDRESS($DEF3,(MATCH($B3,$1:$1,0)+DMK$1),1,1)),"")

    I would like to tell you my deepest thanks for your support.
