Applying Formula In Cell Y/ Tab Y Only If Data Is In Cell X / Tab X?
Feb 4, 2014
I have a Excel file with three tabs on it: 'Raw Data', 'Edited' & 'Upload Ready'. As you can probably guess, you dump raw data in the first tab, it pulls the second one where it is 'edited', which then goes through to the final one which contains pre-populated information required on each upload.
Now I'm not great with Excel, so when I get the formula to work as required in H2 (Edited tab) I just drag it down to HX as needed by the number of rows used in the Raw Data tab: View image: Excel drag
Is it possible to apply the formula used in H2 in H3:HX only if there is data entered in A1:AX in the 'Raw Data' tab? ... or rather I'm sure it is possible (I would guess using the 'IF' function') but I can't work out how to do it and then apply it to the entire column.

I have cell A7 Merged and need info in that cell. Example of what I want: Say I click on cell A1 and it is the color Pink, but has the letters blue in it. I would like it to display the word "Pink" in cell A7 not the number. Well I would like when you click on any cell with colors, that it will display the color in Cell A7. When I try different ways all it gives me is the number in the last cell of the square not the color and when I click on other cells it will not give me that cells info.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim x, rng As Range, r As Range
Dim myList
Dim row1 As Integer
x = Application.InputBox("Enter size of square: 2=2 by 2, 3=3 by 3, or 4=4 by 4", Type:=1)
Set rng = Range("a1").Resize(x, x)
myList = [{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8;6,11,3,10,13,16,38,53;"Brown","Pink","Grey","Purple","Green","Red","Blue","Yellow"}]
rng. CurrentRegion.Clear
Randomize
For Each r In rng
x = Int((8 * Rnd) + 1)
With Application.WorksheetFunction
r.Interior.ColorIndex = .HLookup(x, myList, 2, False)
r.Value = .HLookup(x, myList, 3, False)
Range("A7").Value = r.Interior.ColorIndex
End With
Next
With rng
.ColumnWidth = 10
.RowHeight = 50
With .Font
.Size = 14
.Color = vbWhite
.Bold = False
End With
.HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter
.VerticalAlignment = xlCenter
.Borders.Weight = xlThick
End With
End Sub

In Excel we can apply different formatting styles to the "TEXT" contents of a cell while we are in edit mode. For example we can apply "BOLD" to Brown Fox and "UNDERLINE" to lazy in a string "A quick brown fox jump over a lazy dog.
But when the above string is concatenated from the contents of various cells, excel is unable to apply different formatting (as exampled above) in the concatenated cell. Although we can apply bold, underline etc by selecting the concatenated cell but it is applied to whole string and not to the selected parts of string.
Sheet1 *A1Brown2Fox3Lazy4*5A quick Brown Fox jump over a Lazy DogSpreadsheet FormulasCellFormulaA5="A quick "&A1&" "&A2&" jump over a "&A3&" Dog"
Moreover, MS Word's "mail merge" is capable to apply different formatting to different "Fields" in a single paragraph.
Is there any way so we can apply multiple formatting to the contents of a single cell which is not "Text" but result of "concatenate" in Excel, like MS Word's mail merge or as it is applied in custom format within straight brackets like [Red] etc.

I want to have a condition which will check if the value in cell is present or not and based on that i have to display result in a cell.
Eg: In Sheet1, in column D i have 4 values (Simple, Complex, Medium Complex, Very Complex)
In Sheet 4, we have numeric values to Simple, complex...Like below
Complexity Estimation
Simple 2hrs
Complex 4hrs
Medium Complex 2.5hrs
Very Complex 6hrs
In Sheet5, we have values defined in % like below:
Requirement Analysis
15%
Design
20%
Coding
20%
System Testing
15%
[code]....
In column G of Sheet1, we have to write a function or formula which we do below calculation.
IF (Sheet1!D3="Simple") then Sheet1!G3=Sheet5!B2(ie.15%) of Sheet4
Similarly i will have Sheet1!D3 values as Complex,Medium Complex,Very complex

I'm working on an email database and am looking to sort them into type. I am trying (without success) to use the IF function as follows.
If A1 contains the letters "isd" consecutively, then B1=TRUE
If A1 contains the letters "google", "yahoo", "hotmail", or "austin.rr" consecutively, then B2=true

I am currently trying to create a spreadsheet whereby if I enter certain text in a cell in Column A on worksheet 1 that correlates with text in a cell in Column A on Worksheet 2, then the description in Column B in Worksheet 2 is entered into Column B on worksheet 1.
For example, if worksheet 2 has the following:
Column A Column B
XXXX PRODUCT 1
YYYY PRODUCT 2
and I enter XXXX in column A on worksheet 1, I want Column B on worksheet 1 to automatically enter PRODUCT 1.

Note: I know the syntax below is not how you would enter forumlas into Excel but I am using it to quickly illustrate what I'm trying to do and need help with. A cell not in column D, E, or F contains a formula of the form: F=IF(D>0, D/E, "blank") .
Note: If a cell in column D>0 (eg. D5>0) then the cell to the right of the selected D cell (eg. E5) will also be >0 ; otherwise, both cells will be empty.
This is what I want to do: If cell D?>0 , then F?=D?/E? ; otherwise, F?=empty .
Example 1: If D5>0, then F5=D5/E5 ; otherwise F5=empty .
Example 2: If D7>0, then F7=D7/E7 ; otherwise F7=empty .
Etc. I want this to apply to all rows.
I cannot enter the formula directly into the F? cell because sometimes I will need to enter data into cell F? manually. When I need to enter data manually into F? this results in the formula being overwritten by the new data and this means that if I ever needed to have data calulated based on the formula F=IF(D>0, D/E, "blank") I would have to re-enter the formula from scratch over again; obviously this is a nusance.

I have an excel sheet where I do a simple price-discount calculation for a product. Please check the file at:
Code: [URL] ........
A2 shows the price, B2 shows the discount and C1-L1 shows the number of units sold. C2-L2 is where I want to calculate the earnings based on the formula I have in C2. I want to apply the same formula to the entire row so that I can quickly see the earning for any number of units sold.

So right now I have a formula that I'm using in column "C":
=IF(B4="","",IF(AND(B4=22),"IN RANGE","OUT OF RANGE"))
So basically column C tells you if the number in the B column in within the range of 22-30. Now I want to write the formula in column D and make it apply to columns B and C.
So cells in columns B and C will have a number value in it and I will make column D where the formula is. There will be a number in B or C, but never at the same time. I can't figure out how to alter the formula to do this.

I have a formula that I wrote in B2 and then applied vertically to a large list of rows (100+). I applied it vertically by simply double-clicking the cell with the formula, and it cleanly applied the formula to every row in Column B.
This formula now needs to be applied horizonally across columns, for each respective row. I need a way to do this in one swoop, as it would be very time consuming to manually drag each cell in column B.
I've attached a sample spreadsheet with a simple formula just for the sake of an example.

I'm putting together an Environment Threat Assessment for work and want to automate as much of it as I can to alleviate the amount of time ppl have to spend putting values in. My main problem is I have three very important columns: Likelihood, Success Rating and Risk Rating. Likelihood and Success Rating values will be selected from the following:
VL - Very Low
L - Low
M - Medium
H - High
VH - Very High
Each of these is given a value: VL = 1, L = 2, M = 3, H = 4, VH = 5.
The Risk Rating is the result of multiplying the Likelihood and Success Rating. So a Likelihood of Medium and a Success Rating of Low will give a Risk Rating of 6. Therefore, the cells on my spreadsheet would look like this:
Likelihood Success Rating Risk Rating
M L 6
The issue is I want a couple of things to occur. Firstly I want keep the values in my Likelihood and Success Rating cells as letters (ie. VL, H, VH etc) rather than numbers, while still generating a number result in the Risk Rating cells. Secondly I'd like to be able to change the colour of the Risk Rating cell to reflect the number it gets assigned. For example Green for < 8, Amber for 9 – 14 and Red for 15 – 25. I've been trying to do this with array formulas and am basically going around in circles with no success.

I'm new to creating macros and trying to create a macro that will perform a formula that I can use for multiple files. However the files are a varying number of rows.
I want the formula to carry out on the entire column (all rows). However when I record the macro (I tried using relative and also tried using absolute references when filling the formula) the formula always seems to stop filling wherever my original file's rows stopped. I wrote the formula for the first row and double clicked it to fill the remaining rows.
For example if the macro I recorded in File 1 goes to row 15, when I run the macro on File 2 which is 20 rows, the formula stops filling at row 15.

I'm wondering if it's possible to have a formula applied to an entire column without adding unnecessary length to the spreadsheet until someone is actually scrolling down and using more rows. I want formulas to be constantly present in two columns to automatically calculate values as they are entered into other cells in the same row, but ideally without the otherwise empty spreadsheet being X amount of rows long.
I initially had the formula dragged down 15,000 rows, but it would really be much better if it could start out as a smaller size and then expand as the user requires.

I'm trying to find ways of applying a formula in condition formatting to find entries which don't follow a certain format.
to be clear, this is for a reg plate of a car. There are two styles of formats. The X's represent A-Z and # represents numerical values
1. XX##XXX
2. XX####
find a way of applying two test cases (non-simultaneously) so that cells highlight if they don't follow either of the above conditions?

I am in charge of validating 800+ excel reports coming from our vendors each month. I use excel data validation feature everytime I receive a new file. Data Validation feature is native to the excel workbook and cannot be saved to be used with other workbooks (at least; this is what I think).
What is the best way to write a generic validation script that I can run on any workbook. I am thinking somewhere along the lines of a test script that looks for specific data, data format, required data etc.
Here are some of the rules I have to validate against:
Cells in Column 'A' must contain data, reject if not populated.Cells in Column 'B' must contain a specific value (cat, dog, car), reject if other.Cells in Coulmn 'C' must contain (CA,AMM) only if cells in Column 'D' = 'Yes'Cells in Coulmn 'E' must be in proper casingAddress must use U.S. Postal Service standardsZip Code must be 5digits+4Exclude formatting charecters like '( )' from phone numberMinumum age must be less than or equal max ageMaximum age must be greater than Min ageCheck for populated data in cells, else reject file.Date must be in 'YYYMMDD' formatTime must be in HH:MM:SS' or 'MM:SS' formatID must contain 7 integersThis is a sample that represent 70% of files recived.

Instead of Excel creating a new sheet when I double click on the results of a pivot table, is it possible to just filter the results of the original source data's sheet?
Here is my situation, I have source data that needs to be updated after someone double clicks on the pivot table data. They won't be able to update the source data if it just creates a new sheet (since it's a copy).
I'm running Excel 2003.

Version: Excel 2007 WinXP
I'm basically looking for something almost like an inverse function to INDIRECT. This function would first look at a cell's formula as a text string, parse out the first valid cell reference in A1 format, and return that cell as a text string.
Detail: I have a spreadsheet with cells that point to other values. I would like to get only the row number from the first cell reference in the formula residing in a given cell. For example:
Suppose A1 has the formula =AL267. and A2 has the formula =SUM(AL94:AL235)
I would like a formula in B1 that returns the text string, "AL267" so that I would know this is the first reference.
Ideally it could be dragged down to B2 such that it returns the text string "AL94" (and not "AL235") because AL94 is the first cell reference in A2's
Currently I am copying the formulas after hitting ctl+` and pasting that text into a text editor, followed by text operations to manipulate the results into the desired values. Any solution that didn't involve going out to notepad.

I need to create a rule that will append data to the end of a url to pull images for a ecommerce store.
I have a column that needs filled in with a image url.
For example:
Each image url starts with http://www.domain.com/images/150/
Then, it needs the style number, which is in column A, and then a _ and color, which is column B, and then .JPG added to the very end.
The final example url will look like this:
http://www.domain.com/images/150/4035_PINK.JPG
Each row has it own color, so each row will need a unique url to the image location. The data for each url is all in the same row.
So, how can i add a formula to each row so that it will pull the data and add the file extension for each row?

Lets say we have prices in column (B) and in column (F) I want to insert a formula that says:
In the same row, look at cell in column (B). If price is between 1000 and 8000 then put 2.00 if price is between 500-999 then put 0.50 if price is between 1-499 then put 0.00
I need to achieve this using something like =OFFSET(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW(), COLUMN())),0,-1) but I am not sure how its done.
I will be using this formula in a find and replace macro. So I can NOT make the typical drag and fill formula.

Is there a way to add data into a cell that already had a formula? Lets say in cell A1 we have a formula like "=A1*A2". Would I be able to some how enter a value into cell A1 without changing the formula?
Example: enter value "5" into A2 and value "10" into A1 which would result in A1 value being "50" after value is entered.
I know that this creates a circular error but is there any other way to accomplish this?
