I plan on creating a remarks column within my sheet, and I want it to be such that whenever I update one side or the other, it will merge the remark and remove any duplicates within it.
Would appreciate if anyone has any inputs on this.
Example:
Remarks in the column of one google sheet:
-Friendly -Fun
Remarks in the other column of another google sheet :
-Friendly -Cheerful
So my google script will get the string in both columns, I would like to make the end result of the string to be :
-Friendly -Cheerful -Fun
Can you try like this to what I understand and see attached image as will
=Unique(Transpose(Split(TEXTJOIN(" ",True,B2,D2),"-",True)),False,False)

I would like to create a formula in my Google Sheet where I put the name of any person in one cell then the data related to that person/'s should populate against that cell (in a single cell only)
I'm attaching an image for reference
Request to share the possible solution for the above problem.
Thank you
I tried Vlookup but it is not showing up all the details and not working as well.
=TEXTJOIN(", ",TRUE,IF($E$2=$A$2:$A$12,$B$2:$B$12,""))
I tried the above Formula but it didn't work.
VLOOKUP just returns the first occurrence, altought you can use TEXTJOIN and FILTER to make that. Take a look at that:
=TEXTJOIN(", ";TRUE;FILTER(B2:B12;E2=A2:A12))
You can read more about that functions here:

I have a very large Google Sheet spreadsheet that I need help with.
I have a long list of Network Switches that are very often repeated that I am trying to automatically copy the associated SKU into a separate adjacent cell.
My goal was, once the SKU is added the first time, whenever the same switch is added again, it will autopopulate with the same SKU.
For instance, C2461:C2463 are repeated, and once K2461 is populated, would like K2462 & K2463 to follow suit.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
You can try this formula on Column L (col L will serve as a helper column):
=iferror(arrayformula(VLOOKUP(C2:C,C2:K,9,False)),"")
For now I can't seem to fit the formula without the use of a helper column (so I created a separate sheet for now that will serve as a database for the VLOOKUP formula) but this should get you started.
Sample using a helper spreadsheet (Database):
=iferror(arrayformula(VLOOKUP(Database!A2:A,Database!A2:B,2,False)),"")
Output:
Hello everybody and thanks a lot for your help.
Here's my problem:
What I have:
I have a table with raw data in 53 rows and numerous columns which I would like to reduce and restructure into three columns: City, Date and Value.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bsdC8lrtSGk957ae8Z0VRGnDqTZfFLPpLkfoid0UbIQ/edit?usp=sharing
What I've done so far:
For a single row, I used the following formula to make everything work as I wanted it to:
ArrayFormula({SPLIT(TRANSPOSE(Base_Data!A2)&"|"&TRANSPOSE(Base_Data!AJ1:1&"|"&Base_Data!AJ2:2),"|")})
What I want:
I'd like to extend the formula to work for the entire area, all 53 rows. Does anyone have a tip for this? The solution doesn't have to be a formula, it would work as a script, too
I've set up a new sheet called "New_Data [Erik]" and placed the following formula into A2:
=ArrayFormula(SPLIT(FLATTEN(Base_Data!A2:A&"\"&Base_Data!AJ1:1&"\"&Base_Data!AJ2:54),"\",0,1))
If this is a one-time conversion, I'd recommend copying the results in place. To do that, select A:C, hit Ctrl-C to Copy and then Ctrl-Alt-V to Paste Special. A small clipboard icon will appear. Click it and choose "Paste Values Only."
If you'll need this functionality ongoing, just understand that FLATTEN is a not-yet-official function of Google Sheets, which means that while Google sheets may very well make it official, they may also decide to do away with it at any time. (This is why I suggest copying and pasting the results in place, if it's just a one-time conversion.)
Not sure what you're trying to get to there. If you are trying to leave out all columns but 3, just do ={Base_Data!A2:A, Base_Data!E2:E} and add as many columns as you require comma-separated within the curly brackets
I have a cell value that contains an address. I'd like to cut a portion of that data then edit and paste the results into a separate cell. I don't know the specific language to clearly outline my question so any help would be appreciated. I created annotated images to help.
Original .CSV data I imported into Google Sheets
The data from that import that I would like to extract within the cell.
Data output once I run the Macros script. Original cell data is copy, edited, and pasted into next column.
I have thousands of data entries like this so ideally this script would:
Cut all data starting at 'County:' from Premise Address column.
Paste that data into the County column while removing 'County:'
I ended up using the Split Text to Column function in sheets. Then Find and Replacing the remaining unnecessary text. It's not pretty but it worked.
Gonna dig into REGEXEXTRACT formulae tonight for some fun reading. Thanks!
There are multiple different ways to do this but the simplest would be to use the REGEXEXTRACT formulae; if the data structure is exactly the same across all samples, you could use the following one in the County column -
=IFERROR(REGEXEXTRACT(A2,"County: (.*)"))
Assuming that the first Premise Address is in A2 cell.
How to reference the same (row,column) on the different tab in the same google spreadsheet document?
So, I want to do something like this:
=SOME_FORMULA('First tab'!(ADDRESS(ROW(),COLUMN()))). This doesn't work.
If the formula isn't apsolutly referenced, entries of Google Forms questionnaire change the reference and mess up the formula. (the formula that looked at row number 5 after insert looks at row number 6) I can't use apsolute referencing ($A$1) because I have to enter it manually.
Can I change the reference on multiple cells? (for one I can use cmd + f4)
I had that annoying reference problem too. If I understand correctly you are trying to get the information on some cells, but every time someone sends information to the spreadsheet by filling up a Form, that reference moves down a row.
The best solution I came up with was to create a new SpreadSheet and import all the information with this:
=importrange("spreadsheet-key","Form Responses!A1:B2107")
That function updates the info in realtime, so you can do all the processing on the new spreadsheet.
Hope this helps.
Do not quite understand what you need. Need to reference a cell in another sheet given coordinates on the current cell where it is located?
If so, the following formula can be useful:
=INDIRECT("First tab!"&ADDRESS(ROW(), COLUMN()))
