i have 110 different columns. i want to do the same thing to each of these formulas (ie i want to calculate things like ln (A2 / A1)
is there some way i can automate this process so i only nhave to type in my formulas once and it will automatically enter in the same formulas for the other columns?
As you can see in the attachment: worksheet: calculations. I make conditional sums in this sheet. After completing the 1st possibility of 1st condition with all possible 2nd and 3th conditions, I now need to make the same conditional sums for the second possibility of the 1st condition. So basically, I can copy past the formulas only "TV" does now need to become "MB" thats all that needs to change in the following 170 formulas. Is there a way to automate this proces, so that I do not need to do this manualy one at a time?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a way to get a spreadsheet to automate calculations of unit costs based on variable packaging names.
I have a series of packages that are denoted by text phrases. Examples:
4/6/12
2/12/12
6/4/12
18/12
24/12
For our purposes let's say the package names above will always be in column A. Column B contains the frontline price of a case of product represented by the phrase in column A. Column C will contain the cost per unit of product - this is obtained by dividing column B by the number of each package arrangement that can be found in one case. Most of the time the number of package arrangements per case is denoted by the very first number in the package name (ie, 4/6/12 would be 4). This won't always be the case though (18/12 would be a package arrangement of 1).
I am looking for a way for the spreadsheet to do all of the following and return the results in column C: if the package name contains "4/6/12", divide column B by 4; if the package name contains "2/12/12", divide column B by 2; if the package name contains "6/4/12" divide column B by 6; if the package name contains "18/12", divide column B by 1; if the package name contains "24/12" divide column B by 24.
I am using a lot of linked reports that have to be rewritten each month. For example smaller formulas look like this:
=('S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$228*2)+'S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$262+'S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$292
What I want to do is extract the file path from the above formula and make it a composite of several cell references.
So what I need is to have a cell where they can change the month and another where we can change the year. So I set up several named cells that look like this:
_MONTH =11 November
_YEAR =2013
_JOBCARD ='S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING
_PATH =_JOBCARD & _YEAR &"" &_MONTH
I tried several versions, I am hoping for something like this:
=('_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$228*2)+'_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$262+'_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$292
I've found a few macros that will automate changing cell references from absolute to relative and they work great. However, when I run the macros on formulas that have references to another worksheet or workbook, the macro will not work correctly.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to automate creating certain keyword combinations I need, based off of the values I input into reference cells in columns A - E; the goal is to compile a list of keywords which I will then use to track my rankings in search engines.
I'm looking to only output 500 keywords, so some of the cells in columns A, B, C & E will not contain data (column D will always have a primary Geo-target listed). This results in some of the concatenate formulas I've created outputting partial data (i.e. if there is no data in cell A10, and cell D2 contains the word "Knoxville", then cell I10 will output the data, "Knoxville "). How can I setup conditioning formatting or a formula so that these auto-generated cells appear blank if one of the reference cells has no data within it?The reason why I need the above to work is because I want to setup a formula that automatically counts the # of keyword combinations created by the data entered into any of the reference cells. With the partial combinations being listed, it skews my data. Which leads me to my next question: what is the best formula for counting the # of cells containing a full keyword combination from any of the cells listed in columns G - O (minus the data in the header cells; i.e. G1, H1, etc...)?Lastly, is there a formula I could use that would then aggregate all of the full keyword combinations within the "Complete Keyword List" column (column P)?
I am running Excel 2007 on Windows Vista Business 32 bit. Recently I have noticed that if I enter a formula into an empty, unsused cell, it is recognized as a formula. If I modify that formula, it is then recognized as text and does not work as a formula. The only way I can get the cell to recognize a formula is to delete the cell and start over. This same scenario does not occur on previously stored workbooks. I have checked all of the flags that I know about, including the Options function.

I am trying to figure out the calculation steps that Goal Seek is doing behind the scenes so I can create the formula rather than clicking on goal seek whenever I need to make a change. I need to maintain certain weeks of supply every week depending on the sales. Let's say i want to maintain 5 weeks of supply every week, I would like to insert a column for "Suggested To Order' column that would change if weeks of supply goes below 5. In this scenario I would do a Goal Seek, but I want to automate the calculation so I don't have to do this step every week.

I have a workbook that I use for my purchase orders which is pretty simple. Each row is a separate PO, with 10 columns (po#, description, cost, date, etc.).
Is there a way to automatically generate new workbooks that contain all of the info from each individual row? For example: if I have 100 rows on my spreadsheet, which means I've issued 100 POs, then I want to have 100 individual xls workbooks, with the filename for each workbook representing the PO #s (206904.xls, 206905.xls, etc.).
Dont know if this is possible. I have a spreadsheet where cell A1 contains a value which is not fixed and can change daily, the value can increase and decrease. At present at each month-end I manually record the position of cell A1 at month end in cells C1 through C12 repsenting the 12 months of the year.
Example:
A1 @ 31/01/07 = 50 therefore cell C1 = 50
A1 @ 28/02/07 = 45 therefore cell C2 = 45
and so on for 12 months
what I would like to do is automate this process to automatically capture the value at month end into cells "c" and once captured, the figure to remain absolute for that cell/month and to ignore changes in Cell A1 that may subsequently occur.
Could this be done by date formula?
I have a VBA Macro that starts with a user form that gives me two options. I always need the same option selected, so is there a way to automate this?

When I save an Excel workbook, I would like to automate it to also save as a web page in 3 different locations (and automatically close after save as a web page). I would like to be able to automate the save as a web page in the 3 different locations and close these web pages. But my Excel workbook (which I have saved as an .xls) I will close manually.
One location to save the web page would be on my desktop and the other 2 locations would be on different shared drives. Can this be done with ******* event or something?
My goal is to automate an excel userfrom. So from outside of excel, i would look to be able to interact with the controls (simply fill in a textbox for example). I'm thinking this may be possible using windows API (user32) and system hooks, but not entirely sure where to start.
I saw this previous thread, that suggests it may not be possible :

I work in the accounting department. We have an excel workbook for each account with sheets for every month. These sheets contain a template with pre-formulated cells.
For example, the 2010 workbook for account XYZ will have sheets named - Jan 10, Feb 10, Mar 10 and so on.
What we do, is move and copy the previous month sheet, and rename it to the current month.
But each person is responsible for over 100 accounts, so it becomes rather tedious.
So I wrote a code which would automate this process.......
I have Adobe 6 and would like to automate the printing of Worksheets to PDFs using coding.
I want to control the location of the output i.e. specific directory. I can do this manually by selecting File...Print Select the Adobe PDF printer....go into options and deselect view PDF results. On printing I then get asked to soecify a location and all works fine....but how can I do this in code.
Unfortunately it also appears that when you restart Excel, the printer properties for the Adobe PDF printer are reset.
How can I code in the change in properties so that I can fully automise this task?

View 6 Replies View Relatedwhere to start with automating a monthly report that I put together.
My report is generated from two or three tables of data - roughly 25,000 records.
Currently, I copy and paste this table of data into one worksheet, and then have pivot tables that are written to take data from this table (this is a typical marketing sales funnel - calls, raw leads, qualified leads, customers, revenue). Then I have another worksheet that is the display to the client, with the proper formatting, mathematical calculations, totals etc. On this client facing worksheet, I pull data from the pivot table (using =GETPIVOTDATA formulas).
It seems that I have constructed this report in a very inefficient way because I have a ton of manual work to do every month to make the client view presentable as changes come about in the raw data. For instance I segregate the client facing report by lead sources, but when new lead sources get added in month by month, I have to edit the client facing report at length.
where to start, or what steps to make this more automated
I have a spreadsheet that I need one thing automated on it (for now). It is a tracking sheet for our QA coordinators. What happens is they have a list of medical charts that are incomplete, when they mark the column complete with an "x" then the cell that contains and "x" under the Team Leaders name should disappear.
I have a code similar but I don't know who to use and array in the code.

Cell A2 contains this formula ='C:ReportsYear 2009[CityWaterReports Feb 2009.xls]PHFlows'!$B$44
and so on.
I would like the customer to be able to push the button and be asked to enter the year(eg: 2008) and have the formula update to the new year in each cell.
I have developed an application (all written in Excel) that can do comparisons between up to 5 scenarios (A.... E, with A being the Master that the others are compared to. Any one can be designated “A”.

So, for A the transfer worksheet becomes an Importer, wherein the user pastes-special – link into array, always B21:E35, one column at a time, for each of up to 4 scenarios B…E.
For the others, Transfer worksheet becomes an Exporter, available for the user to copy the data from each of scenarios B….E, always cells B41:B54....
I have a workbook that starts blank everytime time its opened, and at the push of a button launches a macro that imports some data, sorts and formats it. All good so far.
I am able to create a pivot table (using the wizard) to analyse the data I am left with and display the desired results, but I would like to be able to automate this process, so that the table 'appears' when the original macro has done its work and sorted the data.
I have tried (cheating?) recording a macro of the pivot table wizard, but it fails to run and I am not capable of fixing the programing. Is there an easy way to automate the pivot table process or a macro that can be written that will work?
