Very good tip. I use this on every sheet. You probably know that you can remove the double minus and it will work, but the way you do makes it more understandable she you're multiplying integers instead of booleans. I also use over extra if statement to check if the current row is the first to output the column name. This way I can have the formulas in the first row.
Man, God bless you! You always make things easy with extensive examples and explanations! I can’t get tired of watching your exciting videos. Regards, Salem, Saudi Arabia
Arrayformula can only allow a single if statement - you can try and make use of another column and try another arrayformula if statement and then combined as a single column. or keep loking for more info. im about to try this option and i guess ill post my result with your comment here below :)
Thank you! I managed to create a consolidated file from 7 different files leveraging your other video regarding Import Range & Query function but had a tough time writing the formula as the columns were either added or removed in the main file. This video helped me solve the problem, thank you so much :)
Nice workaround, beautiful work, as always :) These 'don't work in an array' situations are tripping me up so many times - could you run through a hitlist of their worst offenders (and similar workarounds would be really appreciated!)
dude! You saved me! I didn't want to fill a new cell every time I added a value, and I didn't want to look at duplicate future values. Only one adjustment for me - I have 2 rows - one for expenses and one for accruals which can contain empty values, so I set the "IF" statement to the description cell. So, now I need to put a description in the cell for all future formulas to execute! Love it!!!
Brilliant. I needed this months ago, but I am thrilled to save errors in the future! Thank you! (Found out the array doesn't work when the table is sorted though).
This is brilliant and I just found it! But in my case I only need the automatic formula yet I need the reference to be relative, since this method seems turns the reference into absolute. Is there any workaround?
thank you very much, it is the first time i see -- before the true/false make 0, 1. btw, i contribute another option =iferror(arrayformula(if(isblank(b2:b);"";b2:b/c2:c));"")
The only easy answer is to remove blank rows from your spreadsheets. If you've already done that than it's very complicated to solve. Sometimes it's best to just not use arrays. I have a video that shows how to drag down formulas with a script in order to not use arrays.
Thanks for the clear video & information. One question, I can't get it to work with the query function. Is that correct or is there a trick? Thanks! :)
Hie Sir. What formula can l use to calculate a total for today, then the same formula must detect the change of date tomorrow and start a new and fresh calculation which will be only for tomorrow. the next day it will repeat the same process by itself, automatically without being manually dragged down. Thank you.
Thanks for this video. The formulae in the example worked as you can replacd the cell reference the whole column reference. But would this work with a vlookup - as i cant take the cell reference out as its needed as part of the formula? If you can please advise?
Thanks for the video ;) Before you made your final formula i managed to get it there with an IF inside an IF and it also did the trick =ARRAYFORMULA( IF( D3:D="";""; IF(E3:E="";""; D3:D*E3:E) ) )
Here is a formula you can use to sum multiple columns: =ARRAYFORMULA(IF((P4:P+Q4:Q+R4:R+S4:S+T4:T)=0,"",P4:P+Q4:Q+R4:R+S4:S+T4:T)) But it returns #VALUE error if one of the columns contains text. So all columns must have numerical values!
A question, if I have an "GoogleTranslate" formular with also "IFERROR" and "UPPER" it is suposed to work?! Because I have this formula for an example and it is not auto filling it!!

Thank you so much. This was really very helpful. However, I am using an array formula in my calculation and I want that calculation to be auto-filled in the cells below. Hence, I need to use 2 array formulas (or say, nested array formula) in one formula itself. Can that be done? Thanks in advance.
I know this is a year later, but I have been trying this. I have found you cannot use an if statement inside an if statement. However, there is an ifs statement which uses multiples on sequential order.

It won't work for your formula, however, you could use your formula on a copy sheet with in IF statement. This video should teach you how to do it czcams.com/video/oa-CuxbTJ9g/video.html
A good use for it is in a Google Form response, if you want a formula in a column next to the entry. Normally, the response will remove the formula when its submitted, but an array formula will just populate down automatically! No need to go back in and pull that formula down.

So for each expense, I want to know the current balance. Initially "M2" is "=L2 + M1". And then, M3 is "= L3 + M2". So for each row I will have my current balance. The result should be at M collumn. Should arrayformula be put above everything? I will try something like that...or maybe my starting balance must be at L1...
So, im hoping to get some help from the commenters or other people here for some data tracking im doing at a school. How can I get the following formula to auto drop down?

I end up getting combined sum----and not a 1:1 correspondence of rows. Basically, I want to add up specific columns from another page in the sheet for each row---and leave the area blank if the reference (f24) is blank.

I need help guys! Brief: - I am looking to automate cell F3 [Win/ Loss] with a drag formula down. - Data will be taken from cell C3 [Player 1] & cell E3 [Result] Objective: - I'm trying to make cell F3 to either remain a blank, say Win or Loss. Formula Problem: - I have spent almost 3 hours working out the required formual! - I know I need ARRAYFORMULA and IF. So Far I have tried the following: =ARRAYFORMULA(IF(C3:C=E3:E,"Win","Loss")) However, in cell F3:F this enters Win in entire column and this is not what I want. - I have tried other options but they all say error or n/a which is very annoying. My last resort is to ask for some help and can someone share/ tell me that correct formula that I need?
I need to be able to create the following type of autofill array formula as I have to tried so many things but keep getting #NAME errors. So the use case is that when someone submits a form on my site, the info gets passed via Zapier to my Google Sheet and creates a row with the following information: name and promotion tag (text value: example PROMOCODE1). Over time, the user will enter monthly promotions so other tags assigned to the column will populate (PROMOCODE2, PROMOCODE3 etc....) Over time I'll have 100s of submissions and want to calculate that individuals user's # of promotional tags. Lets say Row 1 Above had COLUMN NAME A1 (Name) | COLUMN NAME B1 (January Promotion) COLUMN NAME C1 (Feb. Promotion) COLUMN NAME D1 (March Promotion) COLUMN NAME E1 (Total Times Person Entered Our Promotions) ------- A2: "Jeff Smith"------ B2: PROMOCODE1 ----- C2 [blank - they didn't enter that month] ------- D2 PROMOCODE3 = E2 (= 2) - the calculation was of the number of PROMOCODE tags. What would I use for the formula for this?

- in column b i paste this function (below) into the first row: (and want to double-click the cell handle)

“^\s*$” or “^([\t]*)$”

hmm, i also better got to learn how to use ‘=arrayformula(‘ because it gets mentioned quite a lot everywhere (ok, i’m just exaggerating this, but i just stumped upon this formula expression again as i tried to figure out on how to fill down in a ranges series - let’s say from 1 to 100)
*have to learn to create this range to actually make the auto fill handle useful (so it has something to “stick” in case there is a blank cell)

_=arrayformula(sequence(100,1)_
!come to think of it.. maybe there should be a way to enable auto functions to override cell data that is in the way
another thought is that i can’t seem to find an easy way to replace references inside functions that’s already been typed
let’s say i want to “offset”
=if(isblank(a1)...
to
...a2
here you have to go into the function and manually type in the new cell reference (instead of “maybe” just dragging the highlighted cell reference to the new cell - i’m thinking of how i would do this in excel..)
If you have a lot of them maybe try FIND & Replace and check the box to search in the formula.
You won't be able to drag.
this is good thank you but i am struggling miserably to convert my formula to use arrayformula, ideally (scenario) i have three different outcomes in my formula, if they fail to be true, i'ld like a "to be reviewed" as a result, additionally i would like this be an arrayformula so as more rows are filled i also have an automated outcome, currently im using the following formula which works but im having to drag it down the columns
=IF(OR(ISNUMBER(MATCH(C4,Xplan_Asset!J:J,0)),,),"Asset",IF(OR(ISNUMBER(MATCH(C4,Xplan_Pension!I:I,0)),,),"Pension",IF(OR(ISNUMBER(MATCH(C4,Xplan_Insurance!J:J,0)),,),"Insurance","To be reviewed")))
What the purpose of OR functions?
@@ExcelGoogleSheets I can do without the OR statement if it’s possible, (my knowledge is limited) my intention is to return a value if matched from any sheet
=arrayformula(IFS(ISNUMBER(MATCH(C4:C,Xplan_Asset!J:J,0)),"Asset",ISNUMBER(MATCH(C4:C,Xplan_Pension!I:I,0)),"Pension",ISNUMBER(MATCH(C4:C,Xplan_Insurance!J:J,0)),"Insurance",TRUE,"To be reviewed"))
@@ExcelGoogleSheets 🙏🏾 your an angel 👌
Hello. I'm trying to create a SUM column. I want to know how much i spent to today, using SUM the current value to the prior sum above like "=A2 + B1".
But ArrayFormula create a circular reference.
"=ArrayFormula(if(L2:L "";L2:L + M1:M;""))"
I'm trying array formula because i am always create 1 more line e copy the functions. Maybe this could simplify
thanks
try
=ArrayFormula(if(L2:L "";L2:L + OFFSET(M2,-1,0,ROWS(M2:M),1);""))
@@ExcelGoogleSheets I literally copied your formula (Comma error). I dont understand the 4 and 5º params in OFFSET formula. Still receiving a REF error message.
An observation in the OFFSET help center says: "If OFFSET is used as an array formula, it is possible for the value returned by the array formula to replace part of the offset target, causing a circular reference. If this occurs, the error #REF! will be returned."
Thanks again
@@ExcelGoogleSheets Wait. WHERE should I put this formula? Which cell?? M2 cell? Or Above?
@@Paulobrrs Can't be in M, has to be in another column. Also you probably have semicolons as a separator.
=ArrayFormula(if(L2:L "";L2:L + OFFSET(M2;-1;0;ROWS(M2:M);1);""))
I'm clearly doing something wrong. here. Let's try again. It's like my bank statement. Column "L" contains some amount I spent (start at L2. Cell "M1" contains my starting balance for the month. So for each expense, I want to know the current balance. Initially "M2" is "=L2 + M1". And then, M3 is "= L3 + M2". So for each row I will have my current balance. The result should be at M collumn.
Should arrayformula be put above everything? I will try something like that...or maybe my starting balance must be at L1...
So, im hoping to get some help from the commenters or other people here for some data tracking im doing at a school.
How can I get the following formula to auto drop down? (or design a better formula?) I suspect the method above isnt working because of my use of the sum function. However, if I use a different formula---I am not getting the results I need. I end up getting combined sum----and not a 1:1 correspondence of rows.
Basically, I want to add up specific columns from another page in the sheet for each row---and leave the area blank if the reference (f24) is blank.
Arrayformula isnt working for me---and its causing havoc for my google form submissions---making me have to go in manually and enter it every day.
=If(F24="",,SUM('DRC & PIR Google Data Form Responses'!C24,'DRC & PIR Google Data Form Responses'!F24,'DRC & PIR Google Data Form Responses'!I24,'DRC & PIR Google Data Form Responses'!L24,'DRC & PIR Google Data Form Responses'!O24,'DRC & PIR Google Data Form Responses'!R24,'DRC & PIR Google Data Form Responses'!U24,'DRC & PIR Google Data Form Responses'!X24))
Instead of SUM use + operator
=(IF(K2="","",J2:J*100/K2:K)) does'nt show the value. what culd be the reason. Thanks in advance
=arrayformula(IF(K2:K="","",J2:J*100/K2:K))
thanks
How can i do this on cp
I need help guys!
Brief:
- I am looking to automate cell F3 [Win/ Loss] with a drag formula down.
- Data will be taken from cell C3 [Player 1] & cell E3 [Result]
Objective:
- I'm trying to make cell F3 to either remain a blank, say Win or Loss.
Formula Problem:
- I have spent almost 3 hours working out the required formual!
- I know I need ARRAYFORMULA and IF.
So Far I have tried the following:
=ARRAYFORMULA(IF(C3:C=E3:E,"Win","Loss")) However, in cell F3:F this enters Win in entire column and this is not what I want.
- I have tried other options but they all say error or n/a which is very annoying.
My last resort is to ask for some help and can someone share/ tell me that correct formula that I need?
It's not exactly clear what you're trying to do. But I assume this is it =ARRAYFORMULA(IFS(C3:C="","",C3:C=E3:E,"Win",TRUE,"Loss"))
How can I make the same thing but with vlookup?

Got an error: #ERROR!
=ARRAYFORMULA( IF((--(D3:D""))*(--(E3:E0)),F2+E3-D3, ""))
I need to be able to create the following type of autofill array formula as I have to tried so many things but keep getting #NAME errors. So the use case is that when someone submits a form on my site, the info gets passed via Zapier to my Google Sheet and creates a row with the following information: name and promotion tag (text value: example PROMOCODE1). Over time, the user will enter monthly promotions so other tags assigned to the column will populate (PROMOCODE2, PROMOCODE3 etc....) Over time I'll have 100s of submissions and want to calculate that individuals user's # of promotional tags. Lets say Row 1 Above had COLUMN NAME A1 (Name) | COLUMN NAME B1 (January Promotion) COLUMN NAME C1 (Feb. Promotion) COLUMN NAME D1 (March Promotion) COLUMN NAME E1 (Total Times Person Entered Our Promotions) ------- A2: "Jeff Smith"------ B2: PROMOCODE1 ----- C2 [blank - they didn't enter that month] ------- D2 PROMOCODE3 = E2 (= 2) - the calculation was of the number of PROMOCODE tags. What would I use for the formula for this?
Now doubt is clear about arrayformula
I have a question related to this. I want the formula that fills in to be a query that is using a reference cell. The reference cell updates when I drag down the formula but not when in the array. Any ideas on a fix?

What you're looking for is VLOOKUP function.

@@ExcelGoogleSheets I tried but it doesn't seem to work. I think it's because the table that is being looked up also has an array formula.
@@ExcelGoogleSheets So I got the vlookup to work in one cell after I used trim, but I still need it to consider b2 a relative cell..
=VLOOKUP(Trim(B2),'Team / Partner'!A:B,2,False).
@@ExcelGoogleSheets I figured it out! Thanks! The vlookup did end up working when I did this:
=ArrayFormula(IF(LEN(B:B),if(ROW(B:B)=1,"Member_Name",VLOOKUP(Trim(B:B),'Team / Partner'!A:B,2,False)),))
