Apply Global Formula To Multiple Random Cells?

Aug 7, 2012

I have a excel sheet from a supplier of mine, that has a mixture of text, and numbers and more importantly "Custom format cells" that have prices in them. I need to apply a multiplication formula to each price, but they are all in different rows and columns, and it will take forever to type a formula into each cell.

Is there a way that if I can select all these cells, to add a global formula that will update all these cells?

Formula Required To Take First Letter In 1 Cells And Add Random Number To Create Unique ID

Mar 27, 2014

I have 1200 doctor/patient records to input into an excel spreadsheet for import to an online EHR database. I can set up all the normal formulas and formatting but for the life of me not figure out how to create a custom formula to take the first letter of the patient first name and last name and add 6 figures to create a unique patient identifier.

ie. James + Smith+ random 6 figures = JS245318.

In my spreadsheet the first name is under Column 1, Last name Column 3 and the unique number generated in column 4.

Global Code For Multiple Checkboxes

Apr 27, 2007

I'm working on a project that involves scheduling participants. The good news is that it doesn't have to be complicated at all. Here's some info.:

Each event can either be one person or a group of people. Also, one person could be in more than one group. The event can be either a brass, woodwind, percussion, strings, or vocal. Events are scheduled at 10 minute intervals. Since we don't take time requests, what I need is something that will plug in events (sorted by the type of event) to time slots. (Each event takes place in a different room) All it has to do is avoid scheduling a participant at the same time and there needs to be 20 minutes between when a particpant can perform again. (In other words, if they are scheduled at 8:00AM, they can't be scheduled again until 8:20.)

On the spreadsheet, Column A is the event name, Column B is the Event type (Brass, woodwind, percussion, strings, or vocal) and column C are all of the participants involved. I don't know much about VBA so this may be too much work for this kind of foum but the folks on this board always amaze me.

Generate Random Numbers In Random Cells

Sep 18, 2009

I am working on a Random Cycle Count Generator that provides random SKU#s based on 3 separate columns of SKU listings. The user clicks a button to generate the SKU#s to cycle count for that day. What I would like to see is a date stamp in the columns next(B,D,F) to the referenced SKU listing(A,C,E) based on which SKU#s are generated. This will let me see the last date that the SKU was generated. I would also like it to automatically save after generating.

Excel 2010 :: Sorting On Multiple Columns - Method Range Of Object Global Failed

Feb 25, 2014

I need a macro to sort on five columns (Column A, L, P, X, and Y) out of about 33 columns. Sort is all lowest to highest.

The code I have so far is:

Sub Macro1()
Range("A2:AG").Select
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("A2"), Order1:=xlAscending, Key2:=Range("L2") _
, Order2:=xlAscending, Key3:=Range("P2") _
, Order3:=xlAscending, Key4:=Range("X2") _
, Order4:=xlAscending, Key5:=Range("Y2") _
, Order5:=xlAscending
End Sub

However, I get an error "runtime error 1004 - method range of object global failed".

Apply Macro To Multiple Worksheets

Oct 11, 2007

I have a workbook in which I have 31 sheets. I've also recorded a macro that works great when I run it on one sheet, but it comes up with an error when I try to run it on grouped worksheets. I searched Google, and a few articles I saw said that in order to run a macro on grouped sheets, you have to use loops. I don't know if this is true, but I don't know how to run loops anyway, so. I want to run the macro on 30 of the 31 sheets. I was going to put the code in, but when I did that my post didn't work, so I'm thinking there might be a limit on the length of a post.

Apply VBA Code To Multiple Columns As Oppose To Just One

Dec 7, 2009

The code below restricts users from inputting anything other than an uppercase "X" in a cell within column N. If the user types a lowercase "x", it would automatically convert it to uppercase. If any other value is entered other than "X", a message box will fire.

The code is specific to column N (column 13). However, I would like to apply this to multiple columns, such as columns 13,14,17,20 .....

Use VBA To Apply Formula Only To Used Rows

Aug 18, 2013

I'm using this to apply a formula to a worksheet:

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Range("B2:B7000").Formula = "=IF(COUNTIF($C$2:$C$7000,C2)=0,"""",COUNTIF($C$2:$C$7000,C2))"
End Sub

Is it possible to amend this so that it only applies the formula to the used range? Although the current range goes up to 7000 this increases the file size so to keep it to a minimum I was wondering if there was a way to do it only to the used range.

Apply Data Validation Using Multiple Named Ranges

Oct 20, 2009

I am trying to apply data validation to a column of cells using named ranges. However, each row has a unique associated named range. For example:

A_______B
Birds____*
Dogs____*
Cats____*

I can easily apply data validation to these three rows separately using named ranges.
Ie three separate named ranges:
=Birds
=Dogs
=Cats

However, I need a way to quickly apply data validation to column B using different named ranges for each row because there are about 2,000 rows. Is there a way to reference text in the cells of column A that contains the name of the named range? Or maybe a bit of VB code that could do it quickly?

Formatting Won't Apply To My Cell With A Formula

Nov 26, 2005

I downloaded the checkbook register from Microsoft.com and am trying to add a
few cells at the end to quickly calculate my outstanding debits and credits
so that I can balance my statements automatically. I figured out how to write
the formula properly (eventually), but the cells will not take on the
currency format no matter what I do. I have tried pasting the format from the
other cells within the register, tried clearing the format and reapplying the
currency format, tried accounting, etc.

Apply $ To Range Of Cells

Jan 22, 2010

Is there anyway to apply the $ to cell references in formulas across a range of cells? For example, I currently have the following in Column A:

=AAA_SR_F_1!$G5
=AAA_SR_F_1!$G6
=AAA_SR_F_1!$G7

And the following for Column B:

=BBB_SR_F_1!$G5
=BBB_SR_F_1!$G6
=BBB_SR_F_1!$G7

Is there anyway to apply the $ to the entire range listed, i.e. AAA_SR_F_!!$G$5, etc.

Apply Changes To Only Specific Cells

Apr 1, 2013

I have a worksheet that I use to check invoice prices, which automatically indicates to me if any prices have changed, by using conditional formatting. For example, Column A contains original/current price. Column B contains new price (which I enter by hand and is calculated to round off, etc via other cells). If the price changes in B, a simple formula in Column C shows the new price and uses conditional formatting to turn the cell yellow so I can see that it needs to be changed in our system. However, we also must account for shipping charges on our invoice - which change with each order. So, when calculating new price, I also add shipping costs. This same setup repeats for every row of items.

My question: if I change the shipping, but only change the prices on a few rows, the prices on ALL the rows change because of the new shipping. Is there a way to say, select that only certain cells were (received with new price) and have the changes apply to only those cells?

Example:

Row 1
Cell A: current price including shipping from last invoice (which is calculated in several other cells to include shipping, round off, markup, etc)
Cell B: changed price (from invoice)
Cell C: compares A and B using =IF(F9<>H9,H9,"") and applies conditional formatting if price changed.

Row 2
(repeats)

If we only get a new order of row 1, the shipping changes. But I DON'T want row 2 to change it's price, since the price did not in fact change.

So basically, what I want is to be able to check off, or select, only the rows that come with latest invoice.

I attached a sample worksheet. Excel Forum example.xlsx‎

VBA Macro To Take List Of Multiple Inputs / Apply To Another Spreadsheet And Return

I want to create a macro to take multiple inputs from sheet 2, apply them simultaneously to the inputs on sheet 1, take sheet 1's output and list next to the inputs on sheet 2. I want to apply this to a spreadsheet with complicated calculations. Example spreadsheet attached. Related Macros I have will do a similar thing but only take one input at a time. Code as follows.

VB:
Sub x()
Dim r As Range
With Sheet2
For Each r In .Range("A2", .Range("A2").End(xlDown))
Sheet1.Range("A2") = r
r.Offset(, 2).Resize(, 3).Value = Sheet1.Range("C2:E2").Value
Next r

Apply Formula To Cell That Allows User Input?

Apr 14, 2014

Cell A1 is going to be used as my true/false value to trigger the formula. Cell A2 must allow user input to calculate "what if" scenarios however, if cell A1 value = true then cell A2 = 0.

I think I need to place my formula into A3 to allow the user their input to A2 without overwriting my formula. Problem is if I place the = sign in front of IF, the formula does not work the way I need it to. If I don't place the = sign in front of IF excel just treats it as a text entry.

=IF(A1="Actual",A2=0)
IF(A1="Actual",A2=0)

I have inherited this workbook and am just trying to automate the functionality to streamline.
