| 2009-11-12 | Andy | 10 | 7 | 9 | 10 | No | Thanks very much for your assistance, I'll look into that function reference. Enjoy the good karma. |
| 2009-11-10 | Andy | 10 | 7 | 10 | 8 | No | Went to post a follow up, but the author was suddenly unavailable. The answer was useful, if not fully explained and my whole question was not discussed. Of course I'm happy overall for great service. Just a bit frustrating to be so close, but still muddling over it! Thanks |
| 2009-11-09 | Terrence | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | you have done a wonderful job. thanks for your help though it dint solve my problem. I am having characters (words) that are different and i was trying to make some matches so that the best match can pull the values from the second excel to the first. I understand that it is not possible. Any thanks for your response |
| 2009-11-07 | Andy | 10 | 9 | 10 | 10 | No | Hi Bill. Just wanted to say thanks very much for pointing my in the right direction. I didn't need the index function in the end but I got it working great. |
| 2009-11-03 | Len | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Perfect, thanks Bill |
| 2009-10-29 | Tim | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Not the answer i wanted but it solved my problem. Sometimes you can not do what you exactly want. You saved me many hours by telling me what I wanted to do was not possible, had to do it another way. Thanks for saving me lots of time. |
| 2009-10-25 | Isabella | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | right on thanks SO MUCH Bill. Youve given me something to start with, I am teaching myself so appreciate learning the things ill require for this job rather than spendin all my time figuring out the wrong things Issy |
| 2009-10-24 | Carrie | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thanks!! Terrific answer; would never have known how to do that on my own...if I get confused may contact you further....will probably try it out sometime in the next ten days to make sure I can do it....I get the general gist of what you are saying but am not an Excel expert. |
| 2009-10-23 | Dave | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thanks a million. |
| 2009-10-22 | Carlos | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | I was impressed with this expert. Bill is very prompt and clear in his answer. |
| 2009-10-21 | Gloria Pacheco | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | |
| 2009-10-21 | Chance | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Worked like a charm. Exactly what I wanted. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! |
| 2009-10-20 | Endre | 8 | 7 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you very much for quick response! The only thing I didn't catch, was how to repeat this index for several cells downwards. When I tried to copy the cell, it just reffered the index to the cell above (D2:G2, D3:G3) instead of constately the cells at the top (D1:G1). So I had to manually copy the formula into every cell... |

| 2009-10-14 | Sachin | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Hi Bill, Another Question for you Bill, I think you can help me to sort out following Issue. I am having one folder in which there have lots of image available in it. Every Image has unique name. Now I want all Images name in One of the Column of the Excel How? |
| 2009-10-12 | Tim | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thanks very much for your help. After years of Excel use, VBA macros and VB/VB.NET programming, sometimes I can't see the obvious for the allure of elegance. I did have some fun with array formulas and other methods prior to submitting my question to you. I appreciate the AllExperts site and will return often to peruse the questions and answers. - Tim |

| 2009-10-01 | Evan | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Ah, THANK YOU! I think I always try to make the solutions so much more difficult than necessary. And each piece being submitted has its own sheet, so I can quickly monitor its progression through different markets. |

| 2009-09-14 | Amy | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | |
| 2009-09-10 | Clint | 10 | 10 | 7 | 10 | Yes | Mr. Bill Hermanson's comments were clear, accurate & concise. Response was directive & instructional; easily understood. Instructor was easily reached even after question answered, citing follow-up responses. Overall: excellent instruction. Thanks, Bill! |
| 2009-09-04 | John | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thanks Bill, The most difficult part of Excel is recognising the name of the function that will perform the task required. As with most of the Excel functions I have encountered, MATCH and INDEX are quite logical and straightforward. If only there was a full list of Excel functions (and a simple explanation of their purpose) online. Regards, John |
