IP to Country in Excel file

May I ask you to rephrase your question please?

I have a spreadsheet that has a column with IP addresses. I need to populate another column automaticly with the country that IP is registered to.

You can download an ip database like the one at http://ip-to-country.webhosting.info/downloads/ip-to-country.csv.zip?XID=b56e23bc37fc4f96df30fad5458b433c

Then do a vlookup on your ip using a formula like
=VLOOKUP(--SUBSTITUTE(A1,".",""),'ip-to-country.csv'!$A$1:$E$111799,5)

This will only work in excel 07 and above since excel 03 is limited at 65,536 rows, and the csv file has 111,799.

Thanks thomas

can you upload plz an example with excel file?

thanks

i have Excel 2007

Here is an example, including that database. You can have IPs with . or not.

ip-to-country.xlsx

I have worked on such project before using programming language but did not finish it.
My finding was: there is range of numbers, every range represents a country, then you calculate any IP using an equation (math equation) to arrive to a particular number then you match the result number to the ranges to get the country.

Ok, this database is not correct.

i have found another solution:

="http://api.hostip.info/country.php?ip=" & A2

It is possible to get a result in the excel file?  because this create a link and not show the result in the file.

thanks

Any help?
