Index and Match command is return results from the wrong column
Within Excel I'm using the Index and Match command to search an array. I've provided copy of the workbook. Here is the command =IFERROR(INDEX(D7:H11,MATCH($D$13,L7:L11,0),MATCH($E$13,M7:M11,0)),"") Here is an added twist on sheet 1 I use this formula and it works correctly. This formula is on sheet 2. The results for the Average column returns correctly. The other columns appear as if the were flipped. When the Marginal column is selected I get results from the Above Avg column. The opposite happens if I choose the Above Avg column I get the Marginal results. The same thing happens if I choose the columns on the ends. As shown in the image above the Extreme row is selected and the One column is chosen. The result should be "Caution", but instead the result is "None6". FYI, this is part of larger workbook where the results will be posted on a different worksheet, but to simplify everything I've placed it on its own page.

Why? I need to make a special Quick Part where stacked text boxes are close enough to overlap each other before the actual texts start overlapping. This makes the text input afterwards a struggle. I can fine-adjust the space at the bottom by dragging a text box's resize handle, but the space at the top doesn't disappear. I've already removed margins, paragraph spaces and set line spaces to minimum. Setting vertical alignment from Top to Middle doesn't change this behavior. Is it possible to adjust the text box's size to fit the text size exactly?Solved36Views0likes2CommentsVBA code to allow dropdown box multiple selection
Hi all, Is there an option to allow multiple selections of a dropdown box within excel? the dropdown would be in column V (v2 downwards, and the list is in tab “Entities” from a2 down to a6. the codes I have tried from online either didn’t allow me to remove a selected item, or when I did remove it and try to select others I ended up with “floating” commas. Ie it went from “apple, pear, banana” to “,pear ,” and I couldn’t remove the commas. thanksSolved84Views1like1CommentIs there no way to allow people to comment on my word document?
I am trying to share something I am working on with beta readers and some friends but the only options are "can edit" or "can view". There is no option for "can comment" or to let them viewers use the review function. I asked for help with the issue and got told that because my account is personal OneDrive and not business that there is no review only feature. Was that a mistake or is Microsoft really this behind on basic features? Google Drive has allowed giving people access with "comment only" for years.Solved90Views1like2CommentsHow to count duplicates ... sort of ...

But there are some duplicates. However, if you look at the rows with red font, you will see that the serial numbers, though they are the same, were not being repaired for the same reason. So, these need to be counted as 2 separate repairs. If the repairs to the same serial number are for the SAME symptom, we only count it once. What would be a good approach to creating a function that will count this into a cell on a separate table? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.Solved113Views0likes4CommentsExcel bug Data sorting largest to smallest

Attached I show an account balance forecast going out 20 years. But 20 years from now, $176,560 won't feel like $176,560 feels today. So how can I reflect a 3% annual inflation rate in each of the years? Each year's balance is based on many "ins and outs" of money, so I can't just calculate using a rate of return less inflation.

Hi, I have an excel that contains a set of columns with values where in each column each cell has a certain fill color. Now I want to see per column only the cells with a specific color e.g. red. I tried the filter option on the columns, but that filters complete rows. I only want to filter the cells in a column. So in the image below I want to see only the red cells. So in column B no cells, in column C C3, in column D D4 and D5. The regular filter option would show B3 and B4 as well, because it would show the full row for C3 and the full row for D4. Any ideas on how I can achieve this? Thanks!Solved150Views0likes5CommentsCOUNTIFS Range Not Working
Hi, I'm a teacher who is trying to get data on my student's proficiency without manually counting individual numbers for 100+ students in 7 different criteria. I also can't upload the file because it contains information about my students that I cannot reveal. Just to give an idea, this is what I'm working with. I've made the columns super small because I can't get the first three columns to freeze without it freezing a whole window, so this is my solution to keep track of what my rubric is out of while I finish grading. I will make them normal again when I'm done. My formulas here are all working correctly, and I have no issues. The issue is in my Proficiency scale below. This is the formula I currently have in the active box in the image above: =COUNTIFS(D40:CU40,"<50,D40:CU40,>-1"). I didn't want it to disclude the zeroes or 49s, so I set it to one higher according to what I learned from researched on how to use COUNTIFS. From the screenshot, you see that I should have at least 1 student in the 0-49% (although it should be much higher calculating in the students who never submitted their essay but not pictured in my screenshots). However, the formula is not working, so I'm not sure what I did incorrectly. Any help would be appreciated. I need this data for Friday.Solved179Views0likes3CommentsFilter function with Time criteria
