Default Looking up data




Baically, I have a worksheet with names of consultants in the first
column, and then question numbers at the top of the following columns.
Each question could have an answer of 1 - 4, grading the responses
given for service. 1 is excellent.

How do I find out how many 'excellents' a particular consultant has
received for a particular question? I have looked at Vlookup,
Getpivotdata and others, with no joy.

Use function countif, like:
=COUNTIF(B2:Z2,1)
to get total number of "excellent"(1) for consultant in row 2.

The countif is picking up the total number of each 1 or excellent, but
not distinguishing between who got them.

Think I didn't explain well, sorry -

I need to somehow find a formula that will look up the consultant name,
then look up the quality response that particular person got for one of
3 questions, and then tell me how many of each response they received.
My table looks a bit like this:


CONSULTANT q1 q2 q3
Karen 4 3 3
Sam 4 2 3
Karen 4 4 4
Tricia 2 1 2


And I would need to know that Karen got two '4' responses to question
1.
I'm stumped.

:)

That gives me the total sum of Karens responses for qu 1 (ie 8),. but
not the number of times she got a response of 4. I was expecting the
answer to be 2, instead of the total given: 8.

Is there a way I can just count the number of times the 4 reponse was
given, rather than adding the figures together?

With your

CONSULTANT q1 q2 q3
Karen 4 3 3
Sam 4 2 3
Karen 4 4 4
Tricia 2 1 2

In Cells A1:D5

I entered in Cell A9 - Karen-4 (of course the "-4" represent the
score 4
Then in cell B9 I entered:
=SUMPRODUCT(--($A$2:$A$5=LEFT($A9,LEN($A9)-2)),--(B$2:B$5=VALUE(RIGHT($A9,1))))

Then I copied B9 across to D9;

Hope this helps.

Karen 4 3 3
Sam 4 2 3
Karen 4 4 4
Tricia 2 1 2

Insert a column after q3, call it con_q1.
Key in the formula a2&text(b2,"00") in cell e2.
repeat for rows 3 to 5.
Then use countif(e2:e5,"Karen04"), this will give you 2.
Disadvantage: to count different quality of responses, say 1,2,3 & 4,
you'd have to use 4 cells of countif(e2:e5,"Karen01"),
countif(e2:e5,"Karen02"),countif(e2:e5,"Karen03"), countif(e2:e5,"Karen04") !!
