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)

I have a code below. Whenever there's no file in this directory C:Summary_Reports_from_VBA , an error will surface that says "Runtime error '9'.
Subscript out of range". And once the debug option is selected, it point to this statement => ReDim Preserve s(UBound(s) - 1) .

I have found ways to count cells but what I am trying to do is in column F I have a list of meeting topics, and sometimes these repeat in a year. in my drop down menu I have all of them listed however my supervisor wants me to add a count after the meeting number in the 1_1X format where x is the number of times a topic has been used.
The output will be added to my macro here
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim y As String
Dim z As String
Dim b as Integer
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Range("MEETINGNUMBER")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
[Code] .......

Is it possible to assign values to letters (eg. a=1, b=2, c=3... z=26) and then count the total sum of those letters in a cell
Example
A1= car
car is c=3 + a=1 + r=18 which would make the total to be shown in A2 3+1+18=22
With this code i would like to create a subtotal of all letters per row and a batch total of the column with subtotal.

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.

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"?

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

I want to be able to "count" apples and oranges. Is there a way to record a particular text in a text formatted cell and count it. e.g. 10 cells, 3 say "apples", three say "oranges", 4 say "plums". I want excel to keep track of the three types of fruit when I change them and give me a running number of each.

I 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
ACTION SPORTS FTW
ACTION SPORTS FTW
ACTION SPORTS FTW
ACTION SPORTS FTW

I 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)
'Unprotect
'Call Calculate_Decision
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.

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.

I 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"

I 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.

I 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.

Here's my situation.
I will post a rudimentary example:
Account Name/Column A
Truman school, San Diego
Truman school, San Diego
Truman school, San francisco
Truman school, Atlanta
Truman school, Atlanta
In column B, I would like it to assign a unique numeric id based on the TEXT only.
So Truman school, San Diego gets a string of numbers: 1234
Truman school, san fran: 1235
Truman school, Atlanta: 1236
My spreadsheet is about 6,000 records with a great deal of the above situation going on. So school names are identical with different locations assigned. I am trying to import to a database and don't want a lot of duplicate records. That's why I'm trying to assign a numeric value.

I am trying to find a formula that will count the number of unique entries there. I have tried the solutions posted on various websites to no avail (most recently:
Code:
=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(MATCH(A1:A10,A1:A10,0),MATCH(A1:A10,A1:A10,0))>0,1))
).
The answer should be 4,457.

Is it possible to count Text & Non Text Entries in the following way?
The value in cell A1 = 18A
The value in cell B1 = 18B
The value in cell C1 = 19
A Cell with a value that includes and A or a B constitutues a half of a unit so -
The sum of A1 on its own would be .50
The sum of B1 on its own would be .50
The sum of C1 on its own would be 1.0
The sum of B1:C1 would be 1.5

I'm using WinXP with Excel 2003 - I have a column of highway sign description data (16k+ rows).
Example:
Curve Arrow Right
Curve Arrow Left
Turn Arrow
Reversing Curve Arrow Right
Winding Road Arrow(plus many more unique entries)
I'm using SUM and COUNTIF to total the number of times "Curve", "Reversing", "Turn" and "Winding" appear in the column.
My formula is:
Code: =SUM(COUNTIF($F11:$F16196,{"*CURVE*","*REVERSING*","*TURN*","*WINDING*"}))
Which works great EXCEPT what I really want is the number of cells with any of those key words, not the total count of those words. The example above should be 5, but since row four contains more that 1 of the key words I'm getting 6.

Count if cell contains text string
I have a list of animals and a list of countries they are found in so I wanted to count how many animals are found in each country.
So the count function =COUNTIF(E3:E202,"*" & "India" & "*") works perfectly to count how many have India listed as one of the countries.
But was wondering if there is a way to replace the criteria bit (ie the country name) with information from a cell.
So basically I have copied in a list of countries so I just want to use that as the criteria without having to manually input them all individually.

Say I have a userform that has a bunch textboxes on it. If I wanted to take 20 of those textboxes, and scan through and count which ones have values, is there a simple way to do that?
I need to make it so that if more than 11 of those 20 textboxes contain text, a msgbox will popup and tell my users they are exceeding their limit.
I was thinking one way may be make them all a list, and then somehow count through the list and once the count reaches a specified number it msgbox them...but I'm not sure exactly what the process is for that.
