Hi, is it possible to use filter for multiple criterion? Like I want to importrange all the data of like 4-7 people (My Criterion) and put them in one sheet.
Thank you for this video. I'm trying to use this same method using date range from multiple columns. I feel like I'm close but am getting parenthesis error.. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? Thanks! =QUERY(IMPORTRANGE("google_sheet_url/","CLUBSMASTER!A:H"),"select Col1,Col2,Col3,Col4,Col5,Col6,Col7,Col8 where Col6 <= date '"&TEXT(C1, "yyyy-mm-dd")&"' and Col6 >= date '"&TEXT(B1, "yyyy-mm-dd")&"'", 1) OR Col7 <= date '"&TEXT(C1, "yyyy-mm-dd")&"' and Col7 >= date '"&TEXT(B1, "yyyy-mm-dd")&"'", 1) OR Col8 <= date '"&TEXT(C1, "yyyy-mm-dd")&"' and Col8 >= date '"&TEXT(B1, "yyyy-mm-dd")&"'", 1)
What i have been looking for! The only cells that did not import for me was the very top frozen row with the column categories. Do you know why this happens? Thanks!
I have a table with hundreds of stock trades. I would like exel to auto generate a new unique ID for each trade as I add it to the table. I would like that ID to stick with the row that contains the trade even when I sort the table by various columns (such as date or name of stock etc.). I can get excel to auto generate a number using concate but that makes the numbers long and awkward. Is there a way to get excel to auto generate a Unique ID for each trade so that I can re-sort by ID and get them back in chronological order?
You would think a $400 billion company like Microsoft would have engineers that are capable of developing an uncomplicated, simple, swift, elegant and effective solution. As Einstein allegedly said, "Anyone can take a simple problem and make it complicated. It takes a genius to take something complicated and make it simple."
I did everything step by step and got stuck with no option to choose the "CountFormattedCells" in the menu Extentions>Macros. Any ideas about what I can do to make it appear?
I was going through the same, you have to import the script first. Do it on Extensions > Macros > Import macro > Add Function. After that you'll be able to see it.
Good evening, First of all thank for this awesome video! I learn how to do the importrange and combined it with a query from another video to add a filter on it. I am working in logistics in a production environment and making a tab to check each production status. For instance a tab with "Nesting" when they are collecting the materials. This will come in the "nesting" tab. But during a weekly follow-up meeting I add comments in a column next to the import range. When the "nesting" than is being put on "finished product" the imported line dissapears (which is my intention), but the comment I wrote myself just stays in the same cell and thus is 'transferred' or 'linked' to the "nesting" row below. When a status changes and dissapears how can I also let the comment dissapear with it? Is this possible? Thanks in advance!
If you are going to go with option 3 and 4, I'd recommend first going to "Customise Keyboard" in "Tools" to ensure that whatever keyboard shortcut you have in mind is unassigned/not being used.
Brilliant!! After failing with so many other tutorial I get this to work following your video. Now... How can I do this within the same file landing in a different tab(sheet). I would like Sheet1 to be SourceData and Sheet2 the Imported/Filtered Data
If you had a date/time column, you might turn the date/time into a number and concatenate that number to the end which should generate a unique number.
AFTER YOU COMPLETE THIS OPERATION YOU THEN NEED TO DO THE FOLLOWING TO CONVERT THE FORMULA VALUES TO TEXT * Select the cells that contain the data or other attributes that you want to copy. * On the Standard toolbar, click Copy . * Click the first cell in the area where you want to paste what you copied. * On the Home tab, under Edit, click Paste, and then click Paste Special.
I just followed your formulae and completed 9201 names in my spreadsheet - I then auto-filled the remaining cells by selecting the auto-fill button in each column, double clicked it to complete each vertical column and, Wallah, the whole operation took less than a a few minutes. Perfect!! Thank you.
thanks! modified this to fit my purpose -- I had no idea about Apps Script and the biggest hurdle was finding something that could integrate with Gmail and GCal that I was comfortable giving access to.
This is amazing! Thank you SO much for this-really saved hours on a new export we need to upload for a new list. Just one question for you, though-If someone has ONLY provided their first name (so no spaces appear in Column A), which currently causes all other formulas you create here to give a #VALUE error, is there a formula to ADD a space after their first name, which fixes the error?
