Excel functions




By rayshak on Nov 14, 2007

" "
In excel, I have row A labled 1 to 10 ending at A10. Further down in my spreedsheet I have 5 rows (J - N) of numbers consisting of 5 varible numbers from 1 - 10, never repeating in each row. I want to write a fromula in rows B - F to take the data from rows J - N, and place it in the proper colums labled 1 - 10. i.e If row J has the numbers 1,3,4,8,9 these numbers should appear in B1, B3, B4, B8, & B9. If row K is numbered 2,5,6,8,9 they should appear in C2, C5, C6, C8, C9. I thought I had it with the IF function, I was close, but not close enough.

- Thank you the solution worked perfectly. Maybe, someday I'll learn the difference between a row and a colum!

Thank you
Ray

Here's one way to do it. Your formulas would look like this:

B1:
=IF(OR(J1=1, J2=1, J3=1, J4=1, J5=1),1,0)

B2:
=IF(OR(J1=2, J2=2, J3=2, J4=2, J5=2),2,0)

B3:
=IF(OR(J1=3, J2=3, J3=3, J4=3, J5=3),3,0)

etc.

If you don't want the zeroes to display, format the cells with a custom number format--type: 0;-0;;@
