Adding Data By Row Based On Typing In Cell Contained In Row

Mar 10, 2009

I've built (but not completed) a spreadsheet used to organize multiple Bill of Material lists. This list is a row-by row list of products with information relating to a specific part number including: Mfg, Part#, Qty Used, Cost Ea, Vendor, among many more.

Here's what I'm trying to accomplish first. As this list grows, my intension is the be able to recall a row of data (or control what columns of the row are recalled) from this list and be able to easily add them to the list. I would like to be able to do this by typing in data in one cell in the row (like the Part#), and then have a macro or VB code that will automatically fill in a defined number of columns with the descriptive data like: Mfg, Cost Ea, Vendor, etc.

Currently, the data for the rows (if it already exists) would reside higher up in the list on the same worksheet but could also potentially be on another tab in the workbook.

Conditional Formatting Based On Value Contained In Another Cell

Apr 9, 2014

I have some problem with conditional formatting, basically what I'd like to do is color the cells, based on the value contained in one specific cell. I'm not able to make a formula that suits my job.

Basically I want to color code a cell if the value in a specified cell is between x and y.

Typing And Adding More?

Dec 24, 2012

When I'm doing cells in a column, there are times where I start a word and it tries to complete the word based on what I wrote before. For example, I'll put Base I, Base II, Base III... etc.

How do I get it to add the word base, but then I can continue typing the numeral after it? I do not want to create another column after with the numeral. So as I type B, A, [click certain button and continue typing] II

Auto-filtering Pivot Based On Data Contained In Another Pivot?

Sep 5, 2013

I've attached some dummy data. Basically, everyday I'm going to dump a report containing data into a 'Data Dump' tab. 'Pivot 1 - Filtered' I have set up so that it will show specific product IDs only (In this example I only want to see 1X, 2X and 9D).

However, I now have a need to see the total value of that order number in 'Pivot 2 - Autofilter'. (For Example, order number 1111 has both 1X and 8D contained within it). Now obviously the simple thing to do would be to filter every order number shown in pivot 1, and filter pivot 2 with them. However when I'm doing this for real, this can be tens/hundreds of order numbers.

The only workaround I have found is to put a column at the side using VLOOKUP and if ISERROR is false then include in pivot, then used an autofilter on that, but I'd like to keep the normal pivot if possible.

Hide Formula Contained In A Cell

Jul 4, 2007

I have a worksheet in which one particular cell contains a certain formula. For security reasons, I wish to hide the FORMULA contained in the cell. However, the VALUE of the cell given by the above formula should always remain displayed for the user.
I want this to be done only for that particular cell. I tried hiding the formula bar,but it hides it for all cells.

Adding Ever Extending Data Based On Conditions

Nov 14, 2008

I work in Local Government and I am recording the contact that we receive for each transaction that are avoidable or unavoidable. This is broken down into service areas.

The data is imported into excel from a database and therefore is constantly growing.

What I want to do it a very basic summary page so that I can group those that are and those that aren't avoidable for each service.

Because the data is ever expanding I would like this on a separate sheet from the actual data.

I attach a sample of the worksheet and would be grateful if someone could advise what formula to use on sheet 2 in cells c4, c5, d4 and d5 to make it do it automatically.

Auto Jump To The Immediate Right Cell After Typing Any No

Dec 5, 2007

is it possible to create in Excel something similar to the text box you have when you enter the product key on the text boxes?

like for example, when you need to type 1997 as your id.
when you typed "1" in A1, cursor will automatically move to B1.
when you typed "9" in B1, cursor will automatically move to C1...
and so on..

thus, user that fill in the form does not need to press enter, or right arrow key when inputting their id.

Using Selected Cell Instead Of Typing Input Into Vlookup?

Jan 26, 2009

Is it possible to click on a cell and use the cell info as the input data for a search instead of typing data into a cell for a vlookup?

For example, I have a spreadsheet with numbers corresponding to stock codes. Would it be posible to just click on the stock number to return the information on the stock (levels, sizes etc...) instead of typing the stock code in for a vlookup calculation.

Adding Color And A Value To A Cell Based On Contents In Another Cell

Apr 28, 2014

I have values in a number of cells. Next to them, if there was a value, regardless of what the value is, except blank or zero, i would like the cell to turn blue and if possible have a 1 in the cell.

I've used the conditional formatting, however, among the options, 'less than' is the closest to to getting the color right. The issue is that if the cell has nothing in it, it still colors the corresponding cell blue; because it is not less than the already blank cell. If it is blank, I don't want it to color the cell.

Dynamically Adding Row Blocks Based On Cell Value

Apr 2, 2014

I've managed to get coding that allows me to insert single rows dynamically based on a cell value. Example is if I enter a value in cell C3 the coding inserts the same number of rows below.

I've also created a simple macro that inserts a multiple row block under the active cell, complete with formatting, text and some merged cells. Example is I run the macro and it will insert a block of 3 rows, complete with formatting, borders, text and merged cells.

My challenge is to bring these two elements together. So enter a number in a single cell which will then insert the same number of row blocks, complete with formatting etc. I've added a file to sample what it is I'm trying to achieve. I can add the coding I already have as well.

Adding Cells Based Off A Set Numeric Value From Another Cell

Dec 11, 2009

I have an excel 2008 sheet and want to add cells in an odd way. Here is the best way I can describe it.

I want a formula to add cells based off a number value in another cell.

So it would be something like

IF M3= 1 add C5 to SUM ; If not then go to next step
IF M3= 2 add F5 to SUM ; If not then go to next step
IF M3= 3 add I5 to SUM ; If not then go to next step

IF N3= 1 add C5 to SUM ; If not then go to next step
IF N3= 2 add F5 to SUM ; If not then go to next step
IF N3= 3 add I5 to SUM ; If not then go to next step....................

Adding Worksheets Based On Cell Criteria

Aug 4, 2006

I would like one column (column A) to be an "indentifier" column. Column B is the customer name, column C is the customer city and state, column D is the customer phone number, and column E is the customer email.

By calling column A an "identifier" column, what I mean is that I would like to be able to go down the list and put an "x" next to each customer I would like to include in that particular workbook. I would then like to be able to run a macro which would take each of the customers with an "x" in the column A, create a copy of the template comfirmation call sheet, and fill in the identifying information from columns B through E into the copied template. Each worksheet would also need to be renamed the same as the customer name. It would need to perform this same procedure for each row that has an "x," making sure that all worksheets (confirmation call sheets) are grouped into one new workbook.

Sheet 1 is called "main"
Sheet 1 contains 5 columns
A = Blank
B = Customer Name
C = Customer City and State
D = Customer Phone
E = Customer email

Sheet 2 is called "template"

"x"'s are placed into "main" sheet, column A to identify which customer will be affected by macro...................

By Typing Specific Text Into Cell A1, It Will Know What Goes In Cell B1

Apr 3, 2008

I am creating a spreadsheet that when I type the product series in cell A1, it will automatically know to enter the corresponding catalog # into cell B1. I will be doing this for hundreds of product series.

For Example:

If I type AEP into cell A1, the worksheet will automatically enter #123 into cell B1,

If I type DEB into cell A2, the worksheet will automatically enter #458 into cell B2,

and so on...

I understand that I will have to create a master list with what series goes with each catalog #, but I am not to sure where to go from there?

Well following on from my question earlier, I am still playing with my timesheet/rota I'm developing.

I have a start time and an end time, which is formatted as hh:mm then an hours cell which adds them up for you.

BUT if someone is on a rest day or a holiday day or a sick day etc, I would like them to be able to type that in without the cell that adds the hours up going doo laly!!!!! (######)

So, is there anyway they can type say 'R' and then getting the hours total cell to ignore it because it isn't a time?

Adding Multiple Row Contents Based On The Content Of A Single Cell

May 30, 2007

Been trying to work this one out and have ended up banging my head against the wall.

Basically I have a spreadsheet, in the first column is the person's name, in the secon which team they are in and following this a cell for each day of the month with their availability.

The team name is a selection from a list, the availability is 1-6 (different levels of availability)

I'm trying to do subtotals at the bottom for each separate team, so the very last row each of the cells for each is added up:

Name Team 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th etc.
Mr X ___1st___1______2__1
Mr Y ___2nd_______2________5__5__5
Mr Z ___1st___1____________3__3__3

Total 1st: 2 2 1 3 3 3
Total 2nd: 2 5 5 5

So basically the formula in the last row goes along the lines of:

Add each cell in the column IF the team name = 1st
