    @patrickschardt7724 3 года назад +2

    Great stuff. Amazing tutorial.
    The two things I would do differently are:
    1. Put the IFS function in the INCLUDE argument since the only thing changing is the search mode formulas.
    2. Use SWITCH instead of IFS since your IFS conditions checks the same cell (for different things).
    And now with the edition of LET and LAMBDA, I’d probably incorporate those too

    Please include in your title that this is for Office 365 only. I just wasted 35 minutes I can't get back only to find what other commenters found out based on your response, that this is only for 365 Users. Kudos to you however for the 365 Office App and this tutorial. You still get a thumbs up from me. Now I need to find out how to do this in MS Office 2019.

    • @theofficelab
      @theofficelab  3 года назад +4

      Hi Suzukii,
      Thank you for your constructive feedback & even more thank you for the thumbs up even though the content didn't match your expectations. You are right, it might be a bit misleading that I haven't mentioned Office 365 in the title. I assumed people know if they have the FILTER function available in their version or not. Sorry for that.
      However, to make up for it and save you some time searching how to do this in MS Office 2019, you might find the last part of my latest video helpful. In there, I have covered how to replicate the functionality of the FILTER function in older versions. That part of the video (starting at 45:04) covers how to implement 'Searchable Drop Down Lists': ruclips.net/video/JTduguvrF34/видео.htmlm04s
      If you want to directly jump to the part in which I replicate the FILTER function's functionality for older versions, here is the link with the timestamp 49:22:
      ruclips.net/video/JTduguvrF34/видео.htmlm22s
      Hope that helps you to implement the search box in your Excel version. I am curious to know, so feel free to give me another quick feedback whether it was helpful here or under the other video.
      Thanks again and have a great day

    @billshtinkwater8703 3 года назад

    Great! This is exactly what I was looking for. I do have one question if anyone would like to answer it. How do I get a comment to appear in array cell from the original cell it is referencing? Specifically, lets just say that in the comments were the cities these people lived in. Chris Miller's (A13) comment could be "Pittsburgh" and Leilas (A14) comment was "Melborn", how do I get that information to populate into the array?
    Specifically, what I am doing is a catalog of parts. In it, I have information about the parts such as material used in construction, weights, applications, measurements... etc. I want these comments to be visible in the array. Thanks!

      The FILTER function might not be rolled out to all Excel users yet. It depends on which updating cycle you have set in your office account settings.
      To make sure your version is updated to the latest releases, you have to select the 'Insider Program' for the Updating cycles in your Account Settings. Here is a instruction from the official Microsoft Page describing how to do that: insider.office.com/en-us/handbook
      Hope that helps. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions 😊

    will this work on excel 2019? (NOT 365 - no way i'd pay rent-for-life software lol). Also can you search for words/letters contained on your spreadsheet (either in entire sheet, or in the selected cells/columns/rows) and have your real-time results fill in the WHOLE page as you enter letters in the search box)?? - My sheets have many rows & columns so I need to see the WHOLE page/sheet while my results are narrowing down as I type. The little boxes you show are really not convenient for my use as they can show only very little. THANKS! (BTW I'm on a Mac - no more Windows for me since 2007...) :)

    Hey there, I am having some trouble. The functions are working great, except when the cell is blank I am seeing the whole list. It does not use the "NO MATCH FOUND" that we entered in the [if blank] criteria. Any ideas why? How do I fix this?

    • @theofficelab
      @theofficelab  3 года назад +1

      Hi Stephanie,
      I guess you are talking about one of the partial match variants, correct?! For these variants, if you have a blank search cell, the FILTER function searches for an empty string expression (""), which technically is part of every word. That's why the whole list is displayed.
      To fix this, I you have to expand the 'include' expression with an IF statement that checks if the search cell is blank, like this:
      =FILTER(array;IF(ISBLANK(search_cell);FALSE;ISNUMBER(SEARCH(search_cell;search_array)));"No Match")
      Hope that solves your issue 😊

    IT JUST DOESN'T WORK..... I THINK YOU SHOULD DO IT FROM THE BEGIINNING, LIKE WHEN CREATING THE TABLE, AND THOSE BOXES WHERE DATA FILTERED... HONESTLY, EVERY SINGLE TOTORIAL I HAVE SEEN, I'VE DONE EXACTLY WHAT VIDEO SAYS, BUT STILL NO LUCK... PLEASE SHOW US FROM THE VERY START.

      Hi Dell.
      Unfortunately, Excel 2010 does not have the FILTER function that is used in this tutorial. However, there is a workaround to replicate what the FILTER function does. I explain this workaround in at the end of my latest video in the part covering 'Searchable Drop Down Lists'. Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/JTduguvrF34/видео.html
      The part about searchable drop down lists starts at 45:07 of that video.

      @@EngrWUAV Yeah same problem here. Without 365 u can use vlookup and multiple match techniques. I found a video on a different channel viz. " Off to office" which I am recommending.
