Assign A Value To Text
Sep 22, 2005I have read a lot of posts, and maybe I am way out of my leage.
I am trying to setup a spreed sheet for our fire department.
We want to create a way to track training pay. When someone attends the
training we want to just put an "x" in next to their name in the column for
that training event rather then 9.75 for example. But we also want to be able
to add up all training for that individual for the year and see what we paid
them.
The idea is we have a sheet that shows us checks of who attended and who
did not. But we also want to add up the pay associated with that x.
So:
We want column A to be member names
Column B is a training event.
We want to go down and put in an "X" for each member who attended.
Now What I want is to have that "x" be associated with a dollar value. For
example lets say that they get $10 for that training.
THe idea is that I can run a total at the end of the year for each member
for each "x" and see how much money they recieved. I.E. the "x" is a hidden
value maybe that when I add up all the "x"s for a member it will give me
total dolar value for all training they attended.
Assign Number To Text
Jan 23, 2014I currently have a spreadsheet which I use to do an audit of the office stationery supplies.
There 3 columns at the focus of this question:
F - Number of items in stock
H - Stock re-ordering level
I - Order Required
I currently have an IF statement to tell me if I need to re-order any stock, by comparing the Number of items in stock against Stock Re-ordering level.
The statement is =IF(H1>=F1, "Yes","No")
This works fine under most circumstances. However, in some of the H cells, I have the text "Special" which indicates that the stock will only need re-ordering on a special occasion.
Any value I enter in F will cause the I to say "Yes".
Is there any way to make the word "Special" equivalent to 0, so I says "No"?
Assign Text Value, Then Count
Nov 10, 2008First challenge will be assigning point values to Words so I can them up and create averages etc
So I have 4 words I need to learn to assign point vales to, then create a formula that will count the points in a row. That will get me off and running,
So here is a very vague idea of what I mean, this would go in A5 as a example
if A1:D1= complete+2 incomplete+0 submitted+1 missing-1
so if I had a row that was:
Submitted | Submitted |Complete| Complete | Missing | 5
( 5 would be the value the formula would return 1+1+2+2-1)
VBA To Assign Value From Certain Text Other Value Ranges
Aug 22, 2012I have a series of values in one worksheet across one row. The row contains "Yes" or "No" text and also some currency or other number values.
My spreadsheet looks like this (the blank shown is a cell that has no value or text):
Yes No Yes No (blank) Yes No $100 50% 5
What I'd like to do is to have a VBA code that assigns a value to each of these text and numerical values by the following criteria:
If Yes, Value = 0
If No, Value = 5
If "Blank", Value = 0
If $0 to $25, Value = 1
[Code] ........
Therefore, I want to have the outputs in another worksheet (sheet 2) and it should show the following numbers based on the criteria above:
0 5 0 5 0 0 5 4 2 1

I want excel to keep track of the three types of fruit when I change them and give me a running number of each.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAssign Value If Partial Text Match?
Mar 28, 2013I have a long list of categories in the column A (seen below). To this list i want to assign keys that will support with further calculations (in a column B).
An example of such a key would be in the case of the given example "ACTION SPORTS" and "FOOTBALL". The whole list of these "keys" hast 17 elements.
It is evident that i will need some kind of a partial match. The one i have found on the internet, limittin itself just on the first or last number of characters wont work.
Would it be possible to select my "key - list" (all 17 of them). Then excel would asign a key, whenver it would find a partial match, matching the key?
Appendix:
The Data list (Column A):
ACTION SPORTS FTW

Buttons To Assign Values To A Text Box
Sep 15, 2008I have an issue with some excel spread sheet I am working on.
I am using Macros, Buttons to assign values to a text box.
When I do not protect the worksheet no problems.
When I include my calculation sub into my Worksheet Change module.
It sort of works but flashes a lot, and takes about 6 or more seconds.
When I dont include it in the Worksheet change module it doesn't flash and seems to work fine.
When I protect the work sheet, in my code I unprotect it and try to run my code, but it wont go through. I get an error.
Run-Time error '1004': Application-defined or object-defined error
Worksheet Module
Option Explicit ' Force the declarations of all variables in this module
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

If Range("MoreBorrowers") = "Yes" Then
Rows("21:27").Hidden = False
Else
Rows("21:27").Hidden = True
End If
If Range("GuaranteeYN") = "Yes" Then
Rows("159:167").Hidden = False
Else
Rows("159:167").Hidden = True
End If
I have tried adding in the Me. before my Range but nothing seems to work.
Assign A Number Value To Text Within Worksheet
Sep 10, 2009I need to count the number of times a value appears in a row and assign a number that tells which occurence of the text it is.
For example
Name Address
Jim 123 Smith Street
Jane 123 Smith Street
Bob 543 Apple Street
Mary 543 Apple Street
I would like a way to insert a column that puts a 1 next to Jim and a 2 next to Jane, a 1 next to Bob and a 2 next to Mary and so on.
Ultimately, I want to sort the list and delete all the twos, thus deleting the duplicate address entry.

View 9 Replies View RelatedVBA - If Cell Contains Text Within Array In Different Workbook / Assign Value
Oct 20, 2012I have a worksheet (WORK1) that contains two columns of values that I can add to or change if necessary. The first column would be a text string (STRING), the second column would be its category (CATEGORY).
Example:
STRING CATEGORY
Chevron Gas
Exxon Gas
Vons Groceries
McDonalds Hamburger
In a separate workbook (WORK2), I have a column (A) which contains text. Ex:
A1 = "Station 2134 Chevron Motor"
A2 = "ExxonOil 234"
A3 = "Vons store"
A4 = "Hamburger McDonalds"
I would like to assign B1, B2, and so on... a CATEGORY if it contains STRING.
For this example, B1, B2, and so on... would be assigned the values.
B1 = "Gas"
B2 = "Gas"
B3 = "Groceries"
B4 = "Hamburger"
Assign Numerical Values To Text To Allow Calculations
Jan 31, 2010I am working up a workbook template that will be used to process survey results. The way I ultimatley want it to work is that the user can paste data from another application into a worksheet in Excel, and then view analysed results on a second sheet (which are processed via formulae on a third, hidden sheet).
The problem I have is this: the data from the program that's capturing them are text values. For example, column B contains answers to a question where participants rate an experience, and the values are either "Excellent", "Good", "Fair", "Poor", "Awful". I want these to be converted to numerical values, on a scale where "Excellent" = 5 and "Awful" = 1, so that I can then average these.
So, the question is: Can I somehow tell Excel that "Excellent" = 5 and "Good" = 4 etc, and then use AVERAGE(B:B) on the text data and get a number back?
I did think of having an intermediate sheet that used VLOOKUP to create a copy of the first sheet (where the user pastes the text data) with the text replaced by numbers. But, because I don't know in advance how many rows will contain data (i.e. how many survey results there will be), I have to assume on the high side and copy down 50,000 rows. But, this takes ages to calculate.
Formula / Macro To Search Cell Text And Assign Value?
Jan 30, 2014I am trying to get a code which searches each row for a keyword, and then assigns a value to it depending on what group of keywords it is.
For example, if the Name or Comment mentions certain fruit keywords, I want it to assign the value: "Fruit", and if it mentions certain vegetable keywords, I want to assign it "Vegetables", and if it is unrelated to either, I want to keep it blank. If the name/comment mentions both fruit and vegetables then I want it to say "Error".
Since the keywords I am using are mostly two letters, I want the search to only search for the two letters on its own, and not as part of a sentence. e.g. if the key word is ED, I don't want it to return a value for "I rested". Instead, I want it to stay blank.
i.e. I want the code to take information from column A and B, and assign a value based on the keywords in column D and E. As an example:
A B C
Name Comment Value
V1 Eating vegetables are good for you Vegetable
null lock out of ep. Fruit
S-1 It is JUST
Fruit-sp Error
D E
Fruit Vegetable
EP SW
KG SP
ST CM
BV LP
The formula I used so far is this: where C3 is the first value
C3=IF(OR(ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6,A3))),ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6,B3)))),"Fruit","")&IF(OR(ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$E$2:$E$6,A3))),ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH($E$2:$E$6,B3)))),"Vegetable","")
In columns D and E I put a leading and trailing space between each word to only search for the keywords themselves, and not as part of a word. (e.g. ST is correct instead of haSTe).
This formula seems to work only for 60% of the information, problems occur when the keyword is at the end of comment sentence: the value is blank. e.g. in row B4 of the table I made above my formula returns a blank.

Assign Value Given Another Value In Range
Jan 21, 2013I am doing an assignment about credit rating and I am trying to make a spread sheet based on Moody's credit rating method.
I have more or less finished my model, but I have one final problem; in the end I will come up with a numeric score, which can be translated into the final rating (Aaa,Aa1 etc.) based on some ranges. I just can not figure out how to formulate the formula, especially because I have no experience working with ranges.
I have tried with some IF formula's, but they seem to be way too long and complex, for what I imagine should be a relatively simple task.
In the attached sheet I have a final value of 6.9, which should give an A3 rating given that it is within the 6.5 - 7.5 range.

View 9 Replies View RelatedWould Like To Assign Ranges For Each Row
Apr 5, 2009I am defining ranges for cells in a row by the formula:
Set myrange3 = Range("B13", Cells(13, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft))
Set myrange4 = Range("B14", Cells(14, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft))
Set myrange5 = Range("B15", Cells(15, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft))
Set myrange6 = Range("B16", Cells(16, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft))

.
.
.
.
.
Set myrange62 = Range("B72", Cells(72, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft))
The last one is 62 assuming data wont go over 62nd line. However, there would be always a room for error if this is done manually. Is there any way, I could assign range variables only till that row which has data
For example
The data below shows I only need to define range variables namely myrange1 including cells 2 and 5 till myrange7 of cell values 9 and 6.
A B
2 5
3.4 8
5 12
6 23
77 56
8 7
9 6
The syntax:
LastRow = Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row helps by giving the number of the last valid data row, but I am not sure how this might be used if at all in automatically assigning ranges of valid row cells to variables.
