I have the new version of excel and I can't figure the correct formula to do the following.
Attached is my example.
A1 is available Inventory qty. C1:H1 are forcast qty's. I would like to have the available forcast qty. shown in black and the unavailable forcast qty. shown in red based on available inventory shown in A1
Example
So C1,D1 and E1 would be Black and F1 and G1 would be red. As inventory changes so would the colored numbers on the forcast.
I have a sheet called "Sheet1" in workbook "File1". In this sheet, I have a lot of formulas and some of them involves linking to external files located in E: Finance folder. Is there a way to automatically highlight those cells containing a formula that references to external files?
I would like the color of an entry to automatically be set depending on an input. For example if “R” is entered into the cell, the color of the text would automatically be green. Is a macro the best way to handle this? If so, what would the program language look like? Other solutions?
I have searched for code in the forum to help me here but could not get any of the possible choices to work for me. I have a spreadsheet that is password protected but would like the user to be able to change the color of the fonts based on the user's choice. The protected page (one of many in the spreadsheet) has various cells that are unlocked so that the user can enter data. The rest of the page is locked. I have allowed all users of the worksheet to Select Unlocked Cells only. I have attempted to allow them to Format cells as well, but each time the program is re opened this feature is no longer working. (The program has a macro that ensures it opens in protected mode each time.)
So I would like to set up a Macro that allows the users to set the color of 6 rows and 5 columns based on their choice. An example of the configuration is: 1234Color Choice
Using the above format, I am imagining the I would have a Key with color codes (using the ColorIndex Properties). The user would type in the appropriate number for each row and click a button and the rows (5 cells each) would change to the selected color.
I am writing a program in excel spreadsheet and I was wondering how to fill an input cell with color automatically in excel 2007.
I mean that, say I am writing an addition program, I am giving an input numbers in B1 and B2 and i am writing formula in B3 (=B1+B2). I want excel to fill B1 and B2 with yellow/any color automatlically. Only the cells with number input should be highlighted.
I'm working on a sheet that gets filled in with background colors (red, light blue, and green) and I'm trying to come up with a way to automate the process of inputting the text in the red and blue fields (red always gets PROCESS and light blue always gets SHPD) but they end up in different locations in the same columns. is there a function or macro to make this happen? I have constructed a macro to compile the sheet from my online database as it is a live system.
MODELACTIONxxx1xxx2xxx3xxx4xxx5xxx6xxx7xxx8xxx9xxx10xxx11xxx12xxx13xxx14xxx15xxx16xxx17 This is a simplified version of what I'm working with, and i'm on Excel 2000
Not sure if this is possible or if I would need to run a VB macro. image multiple columns with text headers.
'A'=Project Number 'B'= Date 'C'=Description etc etc etc 'S'=Cancelled (i actually use up to 'Z' on the columns for various other data)
I have added a Conditional Format on the cells in column 'S' that if the cell data = Y then colour the cell RED. This at first glance will show that the project has been cancelled. What I would like it to do is to colour the complete row (shaded grey for example) this would then show up more easily with the amount of data that is on my sheet.
Is it possible to have a formula that will return the answer as the value.
For example if I have 15.75 in A1 and I use the formula =ROUND(A1,0), the solution is 16, but when you click on the cell it shows the formula and not the value.
I know about Paste Special, but was wondering if anything could be added to the formula to provide the solution.
my questions below are more oriented to hows & whys, as opposed to asking for a fast solution to a pressing problem.
I'm just reviewing the basics of SumProduct to be sure that I understand what I'm really doing when I deploy the function. So, I have the following formula:
I'm looking for a VBA solution that will return a list of unqiue job numbers in B by date, the below is some sample data in Sheet 1
Sheet 2 is the result I'm looking for and usually there will be muliple job mumbers for the same date and in this case I'm fine to leave it as a blank cell in sheet 2 for that day.
Unable to use advanved filtering as it's a data table thats changing all the time. It's verly likely that the same job numbers will be in multiple days....
I am trying to solve a problem with = LOOKUP. Here's the data. A1 can have a value between 1-100.
IF A1 IS <80.00, NO MULTIPLICATION IS NEEDED IF AI IS 80.01 TO 85.00, MULTIPLY A2 BY 0.37% IF AI IS 85.01 TO 90.00, MULTIPLY A2 BY 0.52% IF AI IS 95.01 TO 95.00, MULTIPLY A2 BY 0.87% IF AI IS 95.01 TO 100.00, MULTIPLY A2 BY 1.07%
I am using HLOOKUP to show a date depending on the month shown in B10.
If B10 is January then the dates throughout January ie. 01/01/08 to 31/01/08 are shown in the cell range of F13 to F43. There is no problem with this unless there are 30 or 29 days etc in a month. So if November is in B10, in F43 I have the value of 00/01/1900. Can I modify my formula so if there is no data in the lookup table to return a blank value ie. "".
Here is my formula:
=HLOOKUP($B$10,DATES!$B$1:$M$32,2,FALSE) I obviously change the 2 to 3, 3 to 4 as I copy the formula down the table.
I would like to have the answer to a formula, say in cell G6, to show up in say G5. I notice in my college coarses, doing our homework through excel, the solutions are always in a cell around the entry cell.
I am currently using a macro which highlights keywords and associated page views from an array in my website stats spreadsheet. Now I need to take it to the next level:
I want to use a multi-dimensional array to pull out any keywords that are duplicated, and display them at the top of my spreadsheet with the totaled page views next to them in a different color (red).
Here is my existing Keyword highlighting Sub Highlight_Keywords()
Dim vntWords As Variant Dim lngIndex As Long Dim rngFind As Range Dim strFirstAddress As String Dim lngPos As Long
My problem is that long text for the cell overlaps any blank cells to the right. I have more then 20.000 rows, so I would not like to put a space character in all the blank cells. Is there a way of formatting which will stop this? I don't want these texts to overlap the blank cells!
I've since discovered that a previously unknown column of data (I'm transcribing data from paper documents) needs to be included in the calculations. Specifically, the new column of data (shown in yellow in the attached example) has to be taken into consideration when counting product quantities. An explanatory pseudo code statement, also appearing in yellow in the example sheet, describes.
I need to determine federal tax withholding from gross pay.
If gross amount (for S-0 = single no dependents) is Over.................But NOT Over............Then Subtract.........And multiply $0.00...............$195.00.....................$5 1.......................10% $195.00............$645.00.....................$99 .......................15% $645.00............$1,482.00..................$351 ......................20% $1,482.00..........$3,131.00..................$447 ......................25% $3,131.00..........$6,763.00..................$849 .....................30%
If gross is $400 then what are the total taxes taken out? Could someone please provide a formula?
I have two columns of adjacent data Call them A & B (although this could differ)
If the data in the second colum is not equal to, blank cell or contains the words "CAT", "DOG" or "ELEPHANT" then the content of the cell in the second column should REPLACE the content of the adjacent cell in column A (in this example) leaving B blank, otherwise column B remains unchanged.
Is there a way to test out a formula using Excel that has more than 2 variables? (If only 2 variables, I would use a simple data table). The formula I am testing has 50X50X20 variables (and as a subset, each variable has 2500 lines of assumptions!). I don't need to see all the results, only the result that produces the highest result. For simplicity (if someone has an answer) let's assume 3 variables are A1, A2 and A3. Formula is in A4 and formula is A1+A2+A3. Assuming A1 can be 1 to 5 and A2 same , A3 same, the long hand calc is for me to run a data table using variables in A1 and A2 the fixing A3 (as 1)..note maximum result....then run data table again using variables in A1 and A2 and changing fixed value in A3 to the number 2...and so on and so on....in this simple example I know the max result would be 15, but much more difficult in my spreadsheet test.
I've got a workbook in which there're many formulas linking to other workbooks. Coz these other workbooks are frequently updated, so the calculation (update) in my workbook is painfully slow and time consuming. I wanna improve this, maybe by VBA or other way instead of using link like this. Anyone can give me some hints or way how to improve this condition???
So I'm creating a grid worksheet for engineering calculations and I have a couple questions about the best way to do it. I've been messing with excel for my calcs for about a decade now, and I every once in a while I try and improve them.
First: I will have several input areas that will either be colored text or shaded background (either works for me). I don't want these 'input required' objects to print as color, just black. But I want my logo at the sheet top to print as color. I've only found ways to not print any color. Can I print the logo as color and the 'input required' stuff as black?
Second: When I do calcs by hand, I write them out on 10x10 grid paper. Each 10x10 grid is one inch. In the past I've created this grid out of the cells, which works. I frequently need to change formulas around though, and each time I do this, I end up needing to mess with the grid cells also. Is there a way to create the grid and have it in the background so it doesn't need to be adjusted each time I change formulas? I wan't the grids to print, and also want to see them on the screen, as I sometimes draw simple objects along with the formulas.
I have a formula (AL15) to determine the address of the last column with a value greater than 1. =COUNTIF(C16:AC16,">=1")+2. I then use this column value to aquire the Absolute row "15" and the determined column=(ADDRESS(15,AL15,4)). This returns to me a Column value and row value that I need to use as a refference. How can I convert this returned value to a reference.
I am trying to create a macro which gives me an input box. I need to enter 2 numbers into the input box. It would be as follows:
Input Box Msg 1 - "What is your labor cost?" (NUM1) Input Box Msg 2 - "What is your productivity rate?" (NUM2)
Then I need the macro to take this info and enter it into a formula which changes according to the row which you are on. (I need the macro to work based on which ever cell I currently have selected). The formula would be this if I currently had a cell on row 10 selected:
=(NUM1*(NUM2*$H10))/$H10
So, if I currently had cell L10 selected, and I ran the macro and put 100 in for "NUM1" and 10 for "NUM2" and my sheet had 20 in cell H10, then the macro would enter the number 1,000 into cell L10. If I had L500 selected, then the macro would enter the final number into cell L500 based on what value H500 contained.
