I cannot find a solution to my problem:
I have a sheet with ~290 rows and ~80 columns. The first row and column are fixed/header.
I would like to collect non-blank values and their header into column B.
I've tried to search for solutions, but I'm not as good at excel, so I cannot wrap my head around most of the advice that I've found.
In Google Sheets you could use an Array formula. I got this:
The formula I've used:
=ArrayFormula(CONCATENATE(IF(--(C2:G2<>"")*COLUMN($C$1:$G$1)<>0;$C$1:$G$1&" "&C2:G2;"")))
This is how it works:
(--(C2:G2<>"") will return an array of 0 and 1 if the cell is blank or not
COLUMN($C$1:$G$1) will return an array of column numbers of each cell
(C2:G2<>"")*COLUMN($C$1:$G$1) we multiply both arrays, so we will get an array of column numbers of non blank cells and 0 of blank cells
<>0;$C$1:$G$1&" "&C2:G2;"") We check if each number in the array obtained in step 3 is 0 or not. If it's 0, it returns a null value, if not, it returns the value of cell
CONCATENATE will concatenate all values from previous array (step 4) so we concatenate null values with real values of non blank cells.
Not sure if this will make the sheet load slower if you have too many records.
Hope this helps
Excel is not the same Google Sheets
=ARRAYFORMULA(TRIM(REGEXREPLACE(
TRANSPOSE(
QUERY(TRANSPOSE(IF(C2:F13<>"",C1:F1 & ", ","")),,99^99)
),
"((\s+)|(,\s*$))",
" "
)))
My sample
use:
=ARRAYFORMULA(REGEXREPLACE(TRIM(TRANSPOSE(QUERY(TRANSPOSE(
IF(C2:G<>"", C1:G1&" "&C2:G&",", )),,99^99))), ",$", ))

I have a spreadsheet set up with tv program titles in column B, the next 20 or so columns are tracking different information about that title. I need to count the number of blank cells in column R relating to the range in column B that contains titles (ie, up to the first blank row in column B.)
I can easily set up a formula to count the number of empty cells in a given range in column R, the problem is as I add more titles to the sheet I would have to keep updating the range in the formula [a simple =COUNTIF(R3:R1108, "")]. I've done a little googling of the problem but haven't quite found anything that fits the situation. I thought I would be able to get the following to work but I didn't fully understand what was going on with them and they weren't giving the expected results.
I've tried these formulas:
=ArrayFormula(sum(MIN("B3:B"&MIN(IF((R3:R)>"",ROW(B3:B)-1)))))
=ArrayFormula(sum(INDIRECT("B3:B"&MIN(IF((R3:R)>"",ROW(B3:B)-1)))))
And
=if(SUM(B3:B)="","",SUM(R3:R))
All of the above formulas give "0" as the result. Based on the COUNTIF formula I have set up it should be 840, which is a number I would expect. Currently, there are 1106 rows containing data and 840 is a reasonable number to expect in this situation.
Is this what you're looking for?
=COUNTBLANK(INDIRECT(CONCATENATE("R",3,":R",(3+COUNTA(B3:B)))))
This counts the number of non-blank rows in the B column (starting at B3), and uses that to determine the rows to perform COUNTBLANK in, in column R (starting at R3). CONCATENATE is a way to give it a range by adding strings together, and the INDIRECT allows for the range reference to be a string.
a proper way would be:
=ARRAYFORMULA(COUNTBLANK(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(3, 18, 4)&":"&
ADDRESS(MAX(IF(B3:B<>"", ROW(B3:B), )), 18, 4)))
or shorter:
=ARRAYFORMULA(COUNTBLANK(INDIRECT("R3:"&
ADDRESS(MAX(IF(B3:B<>"", ROW(B3:B), )), 18, 4))))
or shorter:
=ARRAYFORMULA(COUNTBLANK(INDIRECT("R3:R"&MAX(IF(B3:B<>"", ROW(B3:B), ))))
The reason I am posting this question is that combining Index and Match functions only searches for first qualifying row from top-down and I am needing to find next row up from current that matches as part of my formula.
The complete formula I am trying to construct is to return TRUE in cell "C4" if equal to the row that has the lowest value in column "A" from just above a value (nonblank) in column "C" to just before numbers in column "B" go above 55. So in this case, it would return TRUE in cell "C4" because for the blue highlighted area value 28.28 is lowest in column "A".
Secondarily not sure if INDIRECT function is best to use since I have a few hundred of these in my sheet. Is this a resource hog when I need these to calculate quickly???
I have it posted here and am posting it here because I am trying to get this to work in Sheets which I know is often different than Excel.

perhaps like this:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(A1:A=MIN(FILTER(A1:A, B1:B<55)), TRUE, ))
I found this formula, =arrayformula(sumproduct($C$24:$C$31<B$24:B$31)) but I need it to ignore if one or both cells are 0 or blank.
I've tried and, and countifs, but I can't seem to figure it out.
=arrayformula(sumproduct($C$24:$C$31<B$24:B$31))
I want a number 0-8 for counting how many cells in the particular row are less than the compared row, but (i.e. 0<25) needs to be ignored.
try it like this:
=ARRAYFORMULA(SUM(IF((C2:C < B2:B) * (C2:C<>0), 1, 0)))
I want to count the number of No in theses ranges F:R,BC:BN,CX:DI with array formula so if any one submit a new response containing No in these ranges it counts them
I tried using this formula
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(ROW(E:E)=1,"NC",IF(LEN(E:E), IF(IFERROR(REGEXEXTRACT(TRANSPOSE(QUERY(TRANSPOSE(COUNTIFS(OR(DV:EG="No",BW:CH="No",U:AG="No"))),, 999^99)), "♦"))="♦", 1, 0), )))
but it didn't work, I also tried this formula:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(ROW(A:A)=1,"NC",IF(LEN(A:A)=0,IFERROR(1/0),COUNTIFS(F:R,"No")+COUNTIFS(BC:BN,"No")+COUNTIFS(CX:DI,"No"))))
But it counted all the value in the whole range
I need it to count the No row by row so at the end of every row under NC it shows the number of the No in these ranges F:R,BC:BN,CX:DI
Here is a spread sheet containing the data
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SksZv0h82j5oEZBj2AN5anDFr80AYNR5ettSwkpUKys/edit#gid=0
=ARRAYFORMULA({"NC"; IF(LEN(A2:A),
MMULT(IFERROR(LEN(REGEXEXTRACT({F2:R,BC2:BN,CX2:DI}, "No"))/
LEN(REGEXEXTRACT({F2:R,BC2:BN,CX2:DI}, "No")), 0),
TRANSPOSE(COLUMN(A1:AK1)^0)), )})
I have issues with cell protection.
I would like to protect just one column, B for example.
So I tried:
$sheet->getProtection()->setSheet(true);
$highestRow = $sheet->getHighestRow();
$sheet->getStyle('A1:J2000)->getProtection()->setLocked( PHPExcel_Style_Protection::PROTECTION_UNPROTECTED );
for($i=1;$i<=$highestRow;$i++)
{
$sheet->getStyleByColumnAndRow(1,$i)->getProtection()->setLocked(PHPExcel_Style_Protection::PROTECTION_PROTECTED);
}
But it's really slow, and not good because if I need to open my sheet again
$highestRow = $sheet->getHighestRow(); will return "J".
Another solution would be to get the last non-empty column, do you know how to do that? Because getHighestRow(Column) return the columns unprotected or empty.
The loop is slow because you're applying the style to each individual cell, rather than to the range of cells demonstrated in your
$sheet->getStyle('A1:J2000)->getProtection()->setLocked( PHPExcel_Style_Protection::PROTECTION_UNPROTECTED );
line
: one call to set the style for a range of 1000 cells is more that 1000 times faster than applying it to each of 1000 cells individually.
$sheet->getHighestDataRow();
will return the highest row in the worksheet that contains actual data values
$sheet->getHighestDataColumn();
is the column equivalent
First you can protect complete sheet. After that you can uprotect others. This code will protect the first column and first
$objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->getProtection()->setSheet(true);
$objPHPExcel->getActiveSheet()->getStyle('B2:Z400')->getProtection()->setLocked(PHPExcel_Style_Protection::PROTECTION_UNPROTECTED);
