My spreadsheet has rows with inspection numbers in column A, but there are varying numbers of rows associated with an inspection number. I'd like to change the color of the rows for every other inspection number to yellow using a formula. I think it has to involve an if/then statement but I can't figure out how to word the formula to just choose every other group of inspection numbers.
I'm looking for a way to count groups of alternating rows of "TRUE" values across 3 columns. There will never be an occurrence of more than one "TRUE" value per row. In the sample below, alternating TRUE values occur in rows 4 through 7, so this would be counted with the groups of 4.
I am looking for a way to highlight groups of identical number cells in alternating grey and white. My goal is to make it clear when there is a repeating set of numbers. Below is an example of what a completed state of this would look like that I created manually. The real form I will be using this code on will have long number which is why I am looking for this added clarification. I am using excel 2010.
Is there a way to shade alternating rows in a range and have it always be alternating no matter if a row is added in the middle of the range. If I do it manually now and add a row it messes up the shading and fixing it manually is very time consuming.
In column H I have dates from 1/1/2008 to 12/31/2013. What I would like to do is transfer that data to column J, but alternate it every other row and then insert the word Date into the blank cells. For instance J1 would read "Date" and then J2 would read 1/1/2008 J3 would be Date and J4 would be 1/2/2008. I have a large database and I tried to use array formulas and they slow it down to a crawl so I was working with DSUM, but I don't feel like wasting time with adding in Date manually.
I am interested in selecting cells in alternating rows as follows:
12 Red Happy 00 Unique descriptor 13 Grn Sad 03 Unique descriptor 14 Yel Happy 02 Unique descriptor
I am interested in selecting all the "12, 13, etc", "Red, Grn, ..." and "Happy, Sad..." for analysis, but want to skip all the rows containing the 0- numbers and the descriptors for them. How do I quickly select only the alternating cells in a column within a selection?
I'm trying to use the following formula in conditional formatting in cell A2 when the range A2:AW64 is selected (this conditional formatting will be copied to all cells in the selected range):
Formula is: =isodd($A2)
The error I keep getting is this:
"You may not use references to other worksheets or other workbooks for Conditional Formatting criteria."
I'm trying to use this conditional formatting because column A is our "Order" column. "Order" can be from 1 to 13 and this column is sorted ascending. There can be multiple rows in each Order number. So I want to shade all 1's, 3's, 5's, etc... so that each Order group has alternating shading.
I also want to use conditional formatting, not VBA, to get this to work. In the future, rows might be added to an Order number or two and I want the shading to automatically adjust.
I've located the following color sort VBA that sorts worksheets by color and it is working well. I'm trying to modify the code to sort each of the "color grouped" sheets alphabetically. That is, sort by color and then each color group sorted alphabetically.
VB: Sub SortWorksheetsByColor(Optional ByVal SortByAsc As Boolean = True)
Dim i As Long Dim j As Long Dim ShtC() As Long Dim ShtN() As String Dim t, n As Long Dim lngSU As Long
This is my problem: A list with numbers in column A, these numbers can be used over multiple rows, sometimes 3, 5 or more/less. Every time this number changes, the color for the entire row should flip between yellow and no color. Sequence of the number in column A is not always odd / even. I tried various suggestions regarding this topic but I do not get it straight.
I would like to have my macro code search column A (supplier numbers) and split the rows into groups of rows of 5 or less and then insert 3 blank rows between each group of rows. The split needs to start on a new supplier number and cannot split a supplier number into two different groups. Here is a sample:
What is the proper name convention if I want to sort a group of 6 rows at a time. For example if h =1 then I want to select from C2:G7 to sort but I am getting an error when I try to input it as above. I have the sorting code, just need it selected first.
Sorry, I don't know how to turn off smiley faces because the options list isn't available to me, but before the G is a : and a (
I need to sort groups of data by a single cell in the group, compared to other single cells in other groups of data. The groups are always the same number of rows but vary in the number of rows. There is an example file below. The red is the company name and the green is what I need to sort the group by, as compared to the other groups. This example only has a few, the real file has thousands of groups. I want to sort the companies by the totals in green...they are currently in alphabetical order. There must be a way to do this without going the VBA option.
I wrote a macro to color the cell values in the rows based on their average value. For eg if the cell value is less than 0.2 Avg, they should be red color,if value is between 0.2 and 0.5 it should be yellow. This part is working fine
Now based on the color of the rows cells , need to write a macro for the header one. Logic is Coloum header should be in red colour, if in one or more number of rows cells are red. same with yellow ones. Could you please help me out in solving this with logic.
How do I divide a range (number of rows will vary) into groups for calculation purposes?
I have a spreadsheet with too many dependencies to calculate properly (over 400,000). After I calculate I can delete the empty rows, and then there will only be a few hundred rows left and it will calculate just fine.
I think all I need is a loop that will break the range into groups and calculate the groups separately, but I'm very bad at loops.
This is what I need to break into workable parts.
Sub FilterTrue() ActiveSheet.Calculate Range(Range("AC16"), Range("AC16").End(xlDown)).Select Selection.AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="TRUE" Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).EntireRow.Delete Selection.AutoFilter End Sub
How to convert multiple Rows recors to a single row record in a Notes(csv) format? Have update my xls file. My source is in the below format(Source.xls):
As you can see only GroupNameN, and Name_N are varibles, the rest of the fields are static. note that there is opening and closing quota for column "E" and "F" in output.xls
I realize that the easier resolve to this request is to use Access & we are moving to that application.
I have included a worksheet as an example.
We have a 'work in progress' (WIP) worksheet that contains 12 rows of data per job. Need to know how (or if) you can sort by the "Job #:" value while maintaining the group of information necessary for each individual job.
Not a normal sort because the values aren't entered in typical side-by-side row & column format.
I have a complex report with thousands of lines I am trying to clean up. In order to do this, I need VBA that recognizes specific text data starting after row 9. When it sees this, it will need to select and delete the 2 rows above it, the row it is in, and the 6 rows below it. 9 rows in total, some of which are blank. The text will repeat every 47-50 rows, but I cannot say exactly when it will repeat again. When it is repeated, I need the 9 rows deleted. At this time, there is only 1 column in the report because I need to split out the data in the cell into adjoining cells. Since I have not solved that yet, I need to just delete the entire row.
The text is written with spaces between each letter and a double space between words. It reads, "B I L L I N G M A S T E R I N V O I C E S E T U P L I S T I N G"
I need to create a function that numbers rows with respect to data groups in a column (column labeled "Type" in this example). The result would be that shown in column A in this table.
How do I write the function? #TypeName Date 1CarsJohn1/12/2008 2CarsJane11/10/2007 3CarsMary11/2/2004 4CarsBob12/7/2003 1TrucksMike12/12/2007 2TrucksSandy1/3/2007 3TrucksDale12/14/2006 4TrucksVince4/8/2005
I have a column (k) of 65,000 rows with numbers that are either positive or negative digits. The next column (L) has classified them as either 1 for positive number or 2 for negative.
There may be a run of all positive or all negative numbers or 2 positives and 3 negatives or any combination of positive and negative numbers reading down the column.
Reading down the column (from L1), I need to find any sequence of alternating 1 positive, followed by 1 negative or vice versa.
I am looking for evidence to find any sequence that has more than 2 alternations. (Remembering that positive is 1 and neg is 2)
That is, two or more alternations of a positive followed by a negative or neg followed by a positive.
I'm writing a macro that’s taking user input (from a form I developed) and will generate a chart according to the input.
One requirement for this chart is that the background alternates fill colors between gray and white. Every four columns need to be either gray or white. Based on the duration the user entered, the width of this chart is created. The length (the number of rows) is constant.
I've tried different loops (for, if, do - you name it I tried) This loop is just out of my league. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Summary of Facts: - Starting Point of Chart is B2 (the top left corner of the chart will be in B2) - the number of columns is dynamic (based on user input) - The rows are constant are (2 through 16) - Every four columns need the fill color to be either gray or white
I'm sure there's a simple way to do this (I've been trying countif/match formulas but I'm not quite there)! I need to group line items with the same dollar value, WITHIN say 1 cent. If I do a pivot it will group exact matches, but I'm looking for the flexibility to group something within a few cents. So instead of pivots, I was trying to think of a formula that would do what Column A is doing below:
*I manually added Column A, looking for a formula that would group dollar values within 1 cent, assuming I've sorted Column B from smallest to largest:
A word text blablabla B word text blablabla A dog cat france B dog cat france B this that other A this that other A tiger dragon monkey B tiger dragon monkey
My source data I can't get to sort alternating on columns A and B, and I would like the data to alternate A-B-A-B-A-B while retaining the pairings of data in the adjacent fields. Is this possible?
I have a spreadsheet that contains thousands of rows and I need to highlight all the duplicates in Column B.
What I need though is one group o duplicates to be colored one color and then the next group of duplicates be colored a different color. I need just a 2 color banding.
My need for 2 colors is that the cells contain 9 digit numbers and there can be duplicate groups right next to each other and for the eye to distinguish a different grouping of cells I need that 2 color banding.
I have the below code that colors everything in one color. Can I be modified or a completely new code to do 2 colors?
Code: Sub Dups() Dim Rng As Range Dim CL As Range
Set Rng = Range(Range("B1"), Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
For Each CL In Rng If WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Rng, CL.Value) > 1 Then CL.Interior.ColorIndex = 6 End If Next CL End Sub
how to add alternating cells when all are numbers, e.g. B8 to KW8 are all numbers and I want to add B8, D8, F8, etc. until KV8 and then separately add C8, E8, G8, etc until KW8. Is there a more efficient way to do this than =sum(b8,D8, etc)? I also need to do the same with =counta(b8, d8, etc).
so I have been googling to figure out how to write a macro that will select every other column on my workbook. All that keeps coming up is conditional formatting, which I do not want. I am not trying to highlight the columns in alternating colors, I just want to select them.
I am starting at column F and I would like it to search until the end of the columns and select every other column ending with the last column with data in it.
I know I could search by a specific row and tell it to find the first blank cell then offset it, but there is no particular row that will always have data in it, so I guess it needs to check by column until it finds the first column without any data in all rows and then offset it.
Anyone know what I am talking about here?
I know it should be fairly simple but I couldn't seem to find any answers anywhere else.
Also, anyone know any good websites that have definitions for some basic macros? I'd love to start learning how to write this stuff on my own.
