Assign A Number Value To Text Within Worksheet

Sep 10, 2009

I 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.

Assign Number To Text

Jan 23, 2014

I 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"?

Code To Assign Predefined Number In Separate Worksheet

Apr 27, 2009

Excel 2003: I need code that, when an "x" is entered in a cell in the "Activity" worksheet to assign a temporary unit #, it will look for the next available Temporary Unit # in the "Assign" worksheet. Then mark that unit # as "assigned" (by placing an "X" in the column next to it) and copy it to a cell in the "Activity" sheet.

I will be doing the same thing with assigning different types of PO numbers. I figure if I have the code for the Unit #, I can use the same logic for the other assignments, with some modifications, of course.

I've attached a sample workbook.

If I am not considering the most effective way to accomplish what I am trying to do here, I have no ego at all about someone suggesting a better solution.

Calculate Number Of Days Between 2 Dates And Then Assign Number Based On Answer

Mar 22, 2014

How to create a spreadsheet with what I think will be a very simple formula?

If date in B2 - date in A2 is 1 or less days, put a 1 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 7 or less days but more than 1, put a 2 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 30 or less days but more than 7, put a 3 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 90 or less days but more than 30, put a 4 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 91 days or more, put a 5 in cell C2.

OR

Another, maybe simpler, way of saying it is:

If date in B2 - date in A2 is 1 or less days, put a 1 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 2-7 days, put a 2 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 8-30 days, put a 3 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 31-90 days, put a 4 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 91 days or more, put a 5 in cell C2.

Assign Values To Textboxes On Worksheet

Jul 21, 2014

I am using a ComboBox on a worksheet where the items in that box are pulled from Sheet1A:A. When the selection of the item in the comboBox is made, I would like several textboxes on that same page to be auto-populated based upon info derived from cells adjoining whatever row in Column A was chosen on Sheet 1.

For simplicity sake, let's say the range on Sheet 1 is A:H, and TextBox1 = "B", TextBox2= "C", etc.

so if,
A B C D
JOHN 15 DOGS BLUE
SUE 18 CATS RED
BOB 20 TURTLES YELLOW

When Combobox selection is JOHN, I want TextBox1= "15" TextBox2= "DOGS" TextBox3= "BLUE"

Assign Variable To Worksheet Formulas

Split from Copy, Cut, Fill Relative Or Absolute Formulas

If you "cut", rather than copy, Excel will maintain the original cell references in the formula.

Both of these questions are well within the experience level of a user with above average skill level as your profile shows. Please lower it (before one of the Admins does it for you) to a more realistic level.

See this training page on how to toggle between relative/absolute cell references: [url]

Well cutting is a nifty trick, thank you for that, I don't believe you quite understood my first question.

Lets use my calculator for instance. Using something it has designated K (for no apparent reason) I can enter a formula, such as K=*2-4, and after that is entered every number I then type and press equals to it will run that formula and spit out an answer. (after entering that function, if I press "5" "equals" it will give me "6") Now what I'm wondering is if excel has a "K" function that I can assign to certain cells, namely a column, so that whenever a figure is typed in any of the cells in that column, the required operation is done, namely *.9685.

I am trying to return the value (date) of a construction schedule by searching for a specific construction activity ID number. Is there a method I can use which incorporates a text search so that as the schedule grows (cell locations shift down) the lookup function still follows the unique activity ID?

Below is a sample of row of the ID I must search for, and the date I must return (on a separate excel file):

A

Assign Specific Cell Value Of Worksheet To A Label

Aug 1, 2006

I am struggling with working with specific cells from specific sheets. e.g.

I want to make a label display teh value of a specific cell.

(i is the row number of the cell i'm interested in)

'now make labellaptime.caption = the cell (i-1, 3) of sheet1(jules)

'LabelLaptime.Caption = i - 1 'works no problem
'LabelLaptime.Caption = Application.Worksheets(Sheet1).Cells(i, 3) 'laptime
'LabelLaptime.Caption = Application.Worksheets(1).Range("i-1,3").Value
'LabelLaptime.Caption = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(
'LabelLaptime.Caption = Range("c3") 'works no problem
'LabelLaptime.Caption = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.("sheet1").range("c1").value

I've based all this on the book i'm trying to learn from but it doesn't work and (obviously) i don't know why...

(plus any links to info on how to work with specific cells on specific sheets e.g making a variable = to the value of a cell(x,x) of sheet 3)

How To Assign Week Number Against Dates

Apr 15, 2012

We have started a new venture from 5th April & I need to create a template for a year and assign week no against the dates. The week1 will start from 5th April & week 52 will end on 31st March.

Also there will be a summary of the Week No(Starting Date & End Date) against each week at the top of the template. I could put the formula for the summary part but I am unable to figure out how to assign week no against the dates as given below. It is very difficult to assign the week no manually for the whole year & also it is vulnerable to error. a formula across B7:B23 which can deliver the desired result?

Assign Unique Number To A String

Jun 4, 2008

I'm currrently using column I and col J

in col I are all the units of measurement: KG, PKT, BAG
in ColJ is the formula to return:

KG as 9999999
PKT as 8888888
BAg as 7777777

if(i2=kg, 999999999,"false!")

i was thinking of using if....but triple if formulas would be long isn't it?

PART2 of this would be using:
=IF((SUMPRODUCT(--(db!$A$2:$A$36000=$B$1),--(db!$F$2:$F$36000=C$5),--(db!$G$2:$G$36000=C$6),--(db!$E$2:$E$36000=$A7),--(db!$D$2:$D$36000=$B7),db!$I$2:$I$36000))=9999999,"KG","Invalid")

to check 5 values and if it is 999999999 it'll return KG
8888888 PKT
7777777 BAg

Assign A Value To Text

Sep 22, 2005

I 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.

Automatically Assign Predefined Unit # In Separate Worksheet

Apr 5, 2009

I have a worksheet that logs equipment activities. Equipment may already have a standard unit # assigned to it or it may need a temporary unit # assigned for tracking. In a separate worksheet is a column of predefined temp unit #'s that can be assigned and next it is a column to place an "X" once a unit # has been assigned.

I need to write logic that, when an "X" is entered in Column F (Assign a Unit #) of the Activities worksheet, the Unit # (Column G) will automatically select the next available Temp Unit # in the Assign worksheet...and mark that Unit # as no longer available. Quite frankly, this may be more easily done with VBA, but I am not experienced in that at all. I have attached a sample worksheet showing the format of the unit # to be assigned, etc.

Assign Text Value, Then Count

Nov 10, 2008

First 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, 2012

I 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
