I have created an image of what i want and hopefully this will explain better.
This is very hard but it is something really important for the company i work for and have an idea on how its done but not enough knowledge to implement yet.
I do have one issue I need to work on with a VLOOKUP formula.
I have a list of cities and counties that the VLOOKUP goes and looks at to pull information from.
The problem is that when there is a city and county with the same name (Example: Boulder and Boulder County) VLOOKUP always seems to jsut grab the one that is listed first in the list.
When you use the city name of Boulder, VLOOKUP always retruns the information for Boulder County.
Here is my forumula:
=VLOOKUP(qtProjAddress3,'City Mileage and Tax Rates'!A2:C518,2)
Is there something I can add to this formula that will allow it to return the proper city or county when the names are similar?
I'm trying to calculate a sales run-rate which will change on a day-to-day basis, to predict the end-of-month sales total.
The invoice values are in the data range H17:H74 (I don't want the final formula to add up the refunds in this field i.e. negative values)
The date field is in data range C17:C74.
So basically the formula will need to add all invoice totals (excluding refunds) and divide by the current number of days worked in the month (not duplicating days in the date field) and then multiply this by the average number of working days in a month (21). This should should give a predicted end of month sales total.
Am I just making things up that are impossible to do on excel?
I've had a bet with the other guy in the sales office because I said excel can do a lot more than he thinks. He's under the impression that excel begins and ends with what they teach you at school.
I have a huge list of entries everyday (around 50,000) that needs a time stamp. Each of them has a time difference of 5 seconds in between. That is between two entries there is a time difference of 5 seconds. I use now() function to put the time stamp. The only problem is that I cannot have any value after 4:29:59 PM. That is, I need a macro that would check for the values in the C column, and if they are after 4:29:59 PM, put the value 4:29:59 PM, instead of the real time.
In cell C1:
IF((TIME(HOUR(NOW()),MINUTE(NOW()),SECOND(NOW()))) >(TIME(16,29,59)),(TIME(16,29,59)),(TIME(HOUR(NOW( )),MINUTE(NOW()),SECOND(NOW())+5)))
In cells C2:C9999999:
IF((TIME(HOUR(NOW()),MINUTE(NOW()),SECOND(NOW()))) >(TIME(16,29,59)),(TIME(16,29,59)),(TIME(HOUR(C1), MINUTE(C1),SECOND(C1)+5)))
However, the problem is I have so many entries that after a 10000 or so the time passes 4:30 PM. I think the only way to fix this would be to add a macro.
Im looking to have excel grab the sheet name from the cell rather than manually clicking on the sheet each time. I have attached an example. I would like the formula in cells B5:7 and C5:7 to reference A5:7 rather than the specific sheet as seen in cell B5 --> =b!A1. I assume it will look something along the lines of ='(A5)'!A1, but that doesn't seem to work?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have two documents with very similar information. Some rows are duplicates. However, there is one column of information missing from the 1st spreadsheet. Let's call them Sheet1 and Sheet2.
How do I tell Excel:
In Sheet1, IF A2 matches any field in Sheet 2, column A
Then: copy the data from the same row, in a different column (Sheet1 A3) and put it into a specific corresponding cell (Sheet2 A3)
Basically I'm trying to grab a product ID from sheet2 and put it in the matching cell, for that specific product. I have all teh product IDs in column A in sheet 2. The product IDs field in Sheet 1 is blank. I need to populate it with teh correct information from Sheet 2. But there are many moreproducts in sheet 2 than in sheet 1, so I can't just sort and do a copy paste. It needs to think "if the product exists in sheet 2, grab the info from sheet 2 and put it into sheet 1 for that product id."
I would like to automate this process that I'm doing currently through the "Text to Columns" function.
Basically I have various cells that contain many worlds such as:
FRESH LUNETTE SOLEIL REES 1'S
INFOKUS SOLEIL LECTURE LUNETTES 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL ELEORA 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL ELIZABETH 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL JAMES 1'S
KENSIE LUNETTE SOLEIL VESPER 1'S
KIDS LUNETTE SOLEIL HOUSTEN 1'S
KIDS LUNETTE SOLEIL MINNIE 1'S
My goal is to separate the first world from the rest of the words in one cell.
Since all of the words are seperated by space, I use the the "Text to Columns" function and separate the words, so that I can get the first word into one column. The rest of the words have to be merged again through "Concatenate".
What I'm looking for is a VBA code or Excel function that can identify the first world (which vary in character lengths) and put it into one column.
Is it possible to have a spreadsheet that when opened grabs data from every file with "*invoice" in the title in folder 2009 and all its sub directories and puts them into a list in the opened file?
The data needed is to be from sheet1, cells B16, C18, G18 from all the files
and i would like B16 put into A2, C18 into B2 and G18 into C2
Then the next sheets data B16 to A3, C18 B3 and G18 to C3 etc etc until all files with invoice in the title have been added.
B16 is a name
C18 is an address and
G18 is a postcode
This means there can be no duplicates so if opened twice there will only ever be 1 of the same address and postcode.
where i can grab a number from a cell it would ALWAYS be the last string item..
for example if cell A1 has the following text:
04/02 Card Purchase 03/31 Google*1873060297 Cc@Google.Com CA Card 5036 $500.00
i want cell B1 to hold just the $500
this wold always be the case for everything im trying to do
Dim iStartBook As Long, iNewBook As Long
iStartBook = ActiveWindow.Index
ActiveWindow.NewWindow
iNewBook = ActiveWindow.Index
I'm trying to grab the "2" that .NewWindow generates. The above gives 1 both times, despite the obvious 2 in the caption after you run it. So what property works? What does .Index mean here?
I've set a range as DD14 to G014, then using a For Next Loop asked the program to cycle through each cell in the range. Upon findng a populated cell, it stores several bits of data from that cell (already done) and then move up one cell to record the cell value (time) and again move one cell up to record the date.
Now I did get this to work using a clunky bit of code that used activecell.offset to move the focus up the two columns and a While .... Wend loop - but using a set range and cycling through each cell it does not appear to be possible - or am I wrong?
Set MyRange(1) = Range("D14:ER14")
Set MyRange(2) = Range("D23:GN23")
For MyCounter = 1 To 2
For Each Cell In MyRange(MyCounter)
If Cell.Value = "" Then Goto Skip_Cell
MyCell = Cell.Address
MyPosition = InStr(1, Cell.Value, ",")
If MyPosition = 0 And Len(Cell.Value) >= 3 Then
Tool_Number = Left(Cell.Value, 3).....................
Included in the macro, I would like for the macro to open up Word, grab a label template, that I have stored (have to navigate there), and then merge the data from the excel file into the Word template.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have one worksheet with four columns of data. Column A is a well name, RA-0001, column B is the measured depth of the well from 0 feet to however far down it goes, anywhere from 4000 to 15000 feet, column C is the inclination of the well, column D is the Azimuth.
I have 500 wells from RA-0001 to RA_0500 or so all in this one worksheet, all the wells have varying Measured Depths associated to their well name. I need to create a macro that can separate the wells and either put them in a new worksheet for each well, ie. a worksheet named RA-0001, RA-0002, ..... ect. OR, and this would be nicer, a macro that can actually save all these individual wells as (Formatted Text (Space Delimited)) files with the associated well name.
Here is an example of what it looks like. The columns do not have a subject line to state what information is in each column because I dont need it in that format.
RA-0001
0
0.00
0.00
RA-0001
100
0.91
5.56
[Code] .......
Even just knowing how to create a simple macro that would take all the data from each well so I could manually copy and save them as new files.
I need in XL for a macro to run, open my word file, copy the entire thing and then paste it back in XL.
So leaving it general, Word.doc and Excel.xlsx
It's all because my company's POS system will only export to Word but everything we do is in XL.
How to grab data from a table providing it fulfills two chained conditions without using a concatenated key. For example:
I have this table and I want to get the combination Name + Color. :
A
B
C
1
John
White
2
John
Red
[Code] ........
The database is something like:
A
B
C
D
1
John
Red
3254.30
[Code] ......
I ended up using VLOOKUP() and a concatenated key like Name&Color but it slow down the sheet significantly as I have many records and also does not seem the most elegan solution. I tryied using OFFSET() nested with MATCH()but couldn't get it. Also tried something with ARRAY FORMULAS but I am not very proficient at them.
I am creating a billing sheet that has a column where charges are coded (to determine what they are for) and I want a "Grand Total" for everything followed by a breakdown "Total" for things with the same code. Is there a way to set SUM code to grab all numbers next to codes?? (EX. Column A is Billing Code, column B is Cost in $$; I want a total at the bottom that takes the different amounts in column B based on the various information/codes from column A).
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have an internal web site that has files I need to download daily. The filenames have date strings in them. I've setup some formulas to make the url based on the NEXT dated file I need to download.
And I don't have direct access to the drive the files are stored on, I can only get them through this web site.
Right now, I have individual macros for each file I need. They'll follow the url and download the file if it's there, or return a message to me if it's not. But there are several different files. I have to run each macro one at a time, at different intervals during the day until they get downloaded.
Is it possible to make a macro loop through all the URLs (I have them stored on a sheet, called "FileDownloader" in Range G2:G10) and check if the URL's are valid (without actually attempting to download the file). I can then make some kind of dashboard to tell me when the files are ready for download.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a range of cells (A1:A50). If "Hello" is written in any of those cells then a MsgBox says "Are you sure?". If vbYes the cell is colour coded blue. If vbNo then it is red.
The problem I have is that "Hello" may already exist within the above range. I only want the above to fire on the cell that has just been changed within the range.
I have some code but it checks every cell within the range whenever any cell is changed within the range. Whereas I just want it to fire on the active cell if that makes sense?
How can I validate that all values in a range of cell are the same, excluding
empty cells?
I have a database on one sheet and a 2 count if formulae recording information on the next to be exact one formulae counts the number of monthly values and the other count yearly values. I want the sum of these formulaes to be equal or less than 25. and to show an error if the sum of these is mor than 25.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a ComboBox on a UserForm. One of the fields that I fill in is a date.
After the date is entered I want to check if it's a valid date.
VB:

'If Not IsDate(cboEnterDate.Value) Then
execute the If routine if I enter the date 2014/03/33
When I enter the date 2014/03/0001 it do not see it as an invalid date and exit the routine.
The code:
VB:
If Not IsDate(FormatDateTime(cboEnterDate.Value, vbShortDate)) Then
send the execution to the ERR routine if I enter 2014/03/33
When I enter the date 2014/03/0001 it do not see it as an invalid date and exit the routine.
How can I get the validation to catch the 2014/03/0001 as an invalid date as well.
I would like to simply validate the value entered to a cell against cells of a number of columns. I’d like it to return a vlue to be able to report it in another cell as below. (had to cmma separate the columns, can't get them aligned in this editor)
A, B, C, D, Q, R
1, b, 1, 2, 1, existing
or
A, B, C, D, Q, R
1, b, 1, 2, 5, not existing
So the user enters a value in cell Q to check against the other columns and return a value to R. Additionally, the cells to be validated (A - D) may contain more than one character, i.e. cell A could = 1b2.
I have to validate a cell to only accept the letter a, d ,f ,g h,. I know this is probaly very simple but i havent touched excel since last november and have completely forgotton the most simple of things!
