I am trying to get two shapes to butt up to each other. Unfortunately the shapes either leave a small gap or a slight overlay. I have tried using Ctrl + arrow key to move in small increments, but that didn't work. I have also tried adjusting the width of the rows, but the rows jump backwards or forwards to a number instead of staying with the number I entered. I want to create a seamless shape out of many different shapes.
I have a report that has a set template except that the number of columns change.
I have 3 rectangular shapes with text boxes inside each rectangle. The Shapes take up space vertically between row 8 and 15. In some reports the columns will change, the size of columns might change due to longer text. Is there a macro that will select all the shapes and text boxes and center them column wise between the print area?
Im trying to create shapes Rectangles and Squares with different colours within an excel sheet, where the length and height of the shapes is generated by input values.
Also is it possible to create 3D shapes, again where the size of the shap is generated by input cell values.
Column A is a list of Sales Reps over 100 of them with different names. Column B is a list of Products attached to the Sales Rep. For each Sales Rep, it can vary from 5 - 10 different products
I want to find out whether any products are assigned to the same Sales Rep. How do I do so?
I am trying to figure out a formula in L3 which is the calculation of overlap of region1 and region2. The top row is the number of days. What formula can I use to calculate the percent overlap? The numbers in column L show the expected result.
trying to update pie charts via vba. This is working fine, but I have a problem with the data labels. The number of categories can change each time the macro / data is run. This is as it will be for different customers that takle different products.
When the data labels are remapped, those with a small percentage end up placed untop of one another. I have already played with grouping these small percentage together into an 'Other' Category which works fine, but I know I will be asked to split this out.
Is it possible to add a condition that states 'DATA LABELS MUST NOT OVERLAP' - or is there some way of working around this to the same effect...
im trying to plot two series of data on the same chart, as a bar chart, say for e.g: how many people eat oranges on any given day in a month on the primary y axis and how oranges 1 person eats in day on the secondary y axis..... thats all fine but when i add the series as a bar chart is overlaps the bars.... each series is on the correct axis i just dont want them one behind the other, is there a way i can have them next to each other. edit*based upon the comment below i have attached the image*edit
I want 2 cells that are not next to each other and that contain times of day to highlight only if the times overlap, I cant figure out how to make the conditional formatting do this...
I am trying to determine the total hours of downtime accumulated when there are 2 or more machines down during the same time period. To do this, I need to be able to determine if at any point there are 2 or more pieces of equipment down at the same time, and if this is true, how many hours were overlapped. The attached spreadsheet shows how the data is presented.
I have a Column Graph that will be changing automatically as the data is changed. My problem is that for one set of data the chart looks fine....but if a number becomes negative the bar will overlap with the data labels at the bottom and cause it to be unreadable. I am not able to resize the x axis area or move the labels down any. Is there anyway to make the labels adjust automatically?
I'm having a problem with a list that I've created. The list is in cell A1, the base data for the list is in the range B1:B50. The problem is that data in this range is dynamic, i.e. it has formulas and depending on the result of these formulae the cells in the range either have a value or the cell is left blank. The problem this causes is that the list ends up having gaps in it because it uses blank cells as well. And this is despite me specifcally ticking " Ignore Blank " in the Data Validation menu where I'm creating the list.
I have around 2368 rows for in each column and I have around 8 columns and what I need to do is to remove any gaps. I do not know how to attach picture here, but I can explaining it in words.
A1: 0.9 A2: A3: A4: A5: -0.09 A6: A7: 0.4
Is there a way to eliminate those gaps (A2, A3, A4, A6...) in one go?
I have a problem ranking a large dataset(more than 30000 rows, 16 different columns need to be ranked). My problem is that I dont want the ranks to have gaps when there are ties.
See how it should be in table below.
Ext P$ Rank Should be 2,128.34 1 1
[Code]...
I do have a working solution with an array formula similar to this, but it slows down my macro (30 minutes instead of 10 seconds) as I need it to calculate 16 times
I'm wanting to do is drag a formula down and it drop to the next cell rather than the same row number I'm on. For example I'm trying to concatenate a list of phrases whilst changing the main word. Here's an example of the excel sheet
Base Terms Phrase Result car red van blue bus red blue
There is meant to be a space after the second red and blue enabling me to make (in order), red car, blue car, car red, car blue
How can I make it so I've done the relevant concatenate formulas for A2 with the B column and simply drag it down and Excel will switch from A2 to A3 and so on when I've dragged out the 4 formulas?
I have a file that contains addresses in column C. I need to find any gaps in addresses.
Ex: 211 Corbin Dr 213 Corbin Drive 214 Corbin Drive 123 Apple Drive 124 Apple Dr 124 Apple Dr 127 Apple Drive
I want to identify that there is a gap between 211 Corbin and 213 Corbin and 124 and 127 Apple Drive.
Currently the address including house number are in column c. However, I split the house number into a separate column and the street address in yet another column. There are also duplicates which I have identified by using conditional formatting to highlight the duplicates.
I have a sheet of over 40000 rows, I attach a sample. Column a is called dam and column b is called damsire. Each dam has only one 1 damsire. Both column a and column b are sorted ascending. Unfortunately there are big gaps in column b. some of these can be filled in as we have the information e.g. b38 and b39 should be Manila..as the row 37 tells you the correct damsire. Similiarly b49 could be filled in as shernazar. I want to create a new column which contains a formula to fill in these blanks. of course some of the blanks cant be filled in as the information is not there e.g. b23 to b28.
how I can format this timeline better (it was a to,e;ome template created by someone smart on this forum) - so that there isn't a huge gap between 1892 and then 1977... and then so the rest of the data isn't scrunched together.
I have a load of postcodes over 8 different tabs, the problem is the format of the postcode is wrong. I basically need to delete the first gap of each cell to make the postcode valid -
Is there a formula to count gaps? If you see the sheet below, I want to count maximum gaps in range A1:J12 and put that count in column L.

I have what is probably a simple problem for most, but can't figure out what to do.
In the sample sheet attached, I have times in column E, and an action describing what has happened in column G. What I want to do is calculate the length of time between an opening action and closing one, but don't know how to go about it, as there can be an empty cell(and sometimes more) between each open and close.
The solution can be either in VBA or conditional formatting, if possible.I have product names on column A and weeks as from column B where I have the quantity sold. So, every week I'll have an additional column.
A B C D E ... Product Week1 Week2 Week3 Week4...
What I need:
If the cell is filled, highlight it in green.
If the gap (empty cells) between weeks is =1, highlight it in yellow
If the gap (empty cells) between weeks is >1 but <2, highlight it in orange
If the gap (empty cells) between weeks is >2, highlight it in red
The attached example better illustrates the needs : Example.xlsx
I get given a csv file on a monthly basis which contains consumption data per day for the specified period. This sounds simple but on occasion (more often than not) the data has missing days. This can cause me problem later on in my analysis.
I can happily total the monthly consumption using the date and month text. What i want to do however is to sort the csv file into daily consumption and highlight the missing days i.e. have a range of the days in the month and allocate the daily data to the correct date. I currently do this manually but know that there must be a better, automated approach... searching for matching dates for example?
In my head i'm thinking the following approach but lack the coding skills to do it.
1. Define the start and end dates. Perhaps count the number of days between the two dates and autofill the start date down the appropriate number of days in column A?
2. Paste the csv file into a different sheet and, starting from the top, cut and paste the csv data to the correct date created in step 1. Do this for each row based on the csv data.
I have been browsing here off and on, and have found many excellent answers. I use Excel to process data on time series, as an adjunct to consultancy work on statistical analysis of industrial data . Usually the data has irregular gaps, e.g., daily data might have 2-10 day gaps. If I want to take, say, 7-day averages, SKIPPING OVER gaps longer than 2 days(say), is there an easy way to do this (I don't really know VBA,and it is not worth my time to try and write long code for this, which will eventually be done by some professional programmers)!
