I have been struggling with my Excel 07 Date format. Nearly every time I perform a calculation, enter in a value etc in a spreadsheet my answer is returned as a date. So for example if I enter in a cell: = 5 - 4. I get the answer "1-Jan-1900" instead of 1. I have to manually set the formats to general or number if I want the correct format. The setting seems to be the default one and occurs for all workbooks I open. What can I do to change this.
I have a macro that gets activated as soon as i select the sheet which the macro is situated in. This is not so great because if i am bringing something from the clipboard the automatic macro erases what i have copied and therefore i cannot paste anything. I can make the automatic macro run from a different sheet. Here's how:
I have data that varies in string length across sheets but I would like to consolidate it based on name. Ideally, a pivot table would make sense to me but I have never used one across sheets (if it's even possible). I've attached a sample sheet I'm working with. This is very simplified, but assume that the shaded, gray fields are locked. Essentially, this is simulating that is getting pulled from software.
I was wondering if there is an easy function that would copy only some part of a list as if like I select a category.
Let me elaborate. As in a previous post i have a list of apartments and a set of categories (locations, tube stations, number rooms, distance to tube stations, etc).
I want to get all the items that are the same from a category and post them automaticly on another sheet to single them out, for instance all of them that are on Liverpool Street station or all of them that have 2 rooms.
Is there a simple way to do this or do I have to get a macro to read my whole list? I ask cause I am continuasly updating the list and don't want to recreate the formula all the time.
I am trying to make some sheets with football teams from one championship and their results. For example i will have a match between TeamA vs. TeamB that will end 0-0. I will enter this value in the sheet for the TeamA results but normally this value will also be found in the results sheet of TeamB.
My question is, how can i make excel copy this value once i enter it for TeamA in the results sheet for TeamB.
I would like Excel to do the following and have no idea how to write the instructions. The function is as follows:
From a general information sheet (sheet #1), XCEL looks at a cell to determine if that cell holds "A" or "B" (will be a word, and choice will be previously fixed by a dropdown menu). It then looks at another cell in the same row to determine if it equals 0 or 1. If the cell holds A, and the other cell holds 0, XCEL copies the row from the general information sheet onto sheet #2 of the same workbook.
If the cell holds B and the other cell holds 0, XCEL copies the row from the general information sheet onto sheet #3 of the same workbook.
After XCEL has copied a row, it inputs a 1 in a final cell of that row so it will not copy that row again.
On sheet #2 and sheet #3, XCEL begins (and copies to) the first open row in column A (by moving there after performing its last copy function or by checking column A until it finds a cell = 0), so that each new copy function begins in an open row.
I have already got an anwer for this long back from this site. The code was writted by Mr. Krishnakumar the thread is here :[url]
i need some changes to be made in this code. The existing code creates and updates the details in the sheets automatically from the master data. I just need the sum of Column I in all the sheets after the last row of Column I.
selecting all the sheets and typing the formula in I column is not possible because, the last row in Column I is different in all the sheets. In sheet 1, the last row of Column I is Row 15, in sheet 2 Row150 is the last row. I guess something could be done in macros.
follwing is the existing Sub TestIt() Dim sWS As Worksheet Dim Sellers As Range, Seller As Range Dim lRow As Long, fRow As Integer Dim CopyRng As Range, ws As Worksheet
I have multiple sheets all of which are identical except for the number of rows containing data. I have been trying to create a macro to update these sheets into one 'Master' sheet but I'm having great difficulties due to me needing to leave Column A and Row 1 blank.
I have uploaded example data of what I am after, sheets 2 - 6 need to be automatically updated to the 'Master' sheet when the macro is run.
I'm working on Excel sheet which cover period of time, I specify the period on the top, (cell E4= FROM : cell G4= TO) then I have to fill column (B) with the days name, and fill column (C) with the starting date from beginning till the end date.
I'm getting this work by a VBA code, and if it's possible to have the days names in Arabic language, and set the print area from (A1) till the (next) row after the last day in the column i.e cell (G39)
In column A, field 1 i want to post the text "Week 2, 6-10 Jan" with 5 days in the week. Field 2, "Week 3, 13-17 jan" And then i just want to pull this field down in the column, but then the week number changes and the date interval.
I have a "customer info column" column (b) and a "date column" column (a) is there a way that when i put a new customer into column B, that column A would automatically put the days date in which i put the new customer in column B. so b3 would have the new customers name and A3 would automatically have todays date (the day i input new customer) inserted.
so b4=new customer a4=todays date, tomorrow i input another new customer and then b5=new customer a4=tomorrows date and so on down the line.
there is no "right clickinsert date" or anything like that.
I can input the date and time automatically in the worksheet while a enter a number in the 3 column but when ever i enter number in the next cell whole time is changing in all the cell and it showing the same time for every number in the entering and not different time in the columns
i am trying to make one cell automatically change to current date and time when the cell next to it has changed value. ive search other posts but cannot figure this out. so if cell A1 changes value cell B1 should automatically fill with current date and time cell A1 changed value.
In Column G I have a Drop down list of dates. In Column H I want to show the month for the dates, as per when they are selected. I tried simple doing in cell H2 "=G2" they changing the format of the cell for just the month. which worked but for the cells in H that haven't had a dates selected yet it brings back January-00 all the way down. I need a way of getting rid of the January-00 but having the cells ready so that wen the date in G is selected the month auto appears in H.
Attached is a sheet I use for my pubs to send me their financial information.
Unfortunately, like most staff - they become lazy and need to be kept in line, but when it comes to money, I need it all to work out exactly.
The sheet seems to almost perfect for what I need now, but for the week commencing date on the bar business sheet.
This is the master date for all the figures inputed so I need the week commencing date to always be correct from a Monday.
At the moment the formula I have in ensures that, but when I open it the following Monday to get the figures the date changes to the following Monday from when the sheet was started.
So...is there a Makro that can run that when you open the sheet for the first time it will ask for the week commencing date which will then lock that date or would it be better inserting another sheet called calendar with week numbers and do a lookup function so that a specific week number relates to a specific week commencing?
I am trying to automatically capture and record the date of a cell's last change in value (date stamp). I have an item price list and if a particular cell gets updated I want to automatically record the date of change of that cell. I realize that after I change cell A1 I could tab to cell B1 and enter Ctrl+; but if I have a hundred new prices to enter I don't want to do that (plus me or the data entry person might forget).....
I copied the code that was used to inserting the date when the cell next to it was updated, the original post can be found here: [URL]
The Code below will check a range of cells between c3 and c20 and if I make a change to the value in any of them, then the cell to the right of them will have the date inserted. I've had to modify the original code from the other post a little bit to stop an error appearing when I insert a new Row:
[Code] ....
On the first example that was posted it all ran ok until until I attempted to insert a new Row, then it would put the date into about 5 of the cells to the right of where it should do and I received an error message with the usual Debug stuff on it. It would also delete my column descriptions that I had on Row 2.
Would it be possible for it to not auto insert the date on any new blank row that I insert?
What would be the correct range for me to get the code to work on c3:infinity....
Is it also only possible to enable macro's and code like this in the current document instead of every document that you load through excel.
I have a workbook with several sheets, each of which represents a client. At the bottom of this sheet, I have a call log to record the times that we attempted communication, left a message, etc. Since it's tedious enough as it is, I'd like to save my team 2 seconds and a slight bit of that tedium by having the date an attempt was made automatically recorded in the row where the attempt is entered.
Let's say this all takes place in A47:D47. For example, if I called the client on 7/15/08 and left a message, I would record who was called in B47, the name of the caller (me) in C47, and the result in D47. If possible, I would like to have the date of the attempt (today's date on the given day) entered in A47 upon the entry of information in B47:D47.
I have two problems with my PivotTable: 1. My PivotTable consists of a constant number columns and varying number rows, eg.......
The dates (with data) should continue to update as I add new date records to the source datasheet, but they don't. I try the refresh option for the table, but it only updates for the dates that it was designed for. I also have automatic updates set, but so far nothing is working. I have to rebuild the PivotTable each day after I add new data...
2. Second problem are the date labels on the rows. I need to have them include the literal day of the week such as Thursday 01/01/09 Friday 01/02/09
Another less urgent problem that I would like to solve is that I have included additional percent calculations for the total column that I am having to rebuild each time. Can that be included in the PivotTable as well?
I am attempting to create a formula which will detect of a cell is empty, and if it is empty enter the date by using TODAY(). I also dont want this date to change when opened after it has been entered. This is what I have been working with so far.
Code: =IF(A1="",TODAY(),"")
Code: =IF(G9>=TODAY(),A1=1,"")
I am trying to use the second formula to change the value in the cell "A1", but instead it just returns a true/false statement in the cell with this formula.
How can I get an automatic time & date entry into cell B1 based on a alphanumeric entry in cell A1. The time and date must not re-calculate every time the workbook is opened.
I am making a movie ticket spreadsheet for the employees to use when selling movie tickets. Below are the feilds that I have. Everything is based on the number of tickets sold. So when someone sells 5 tickets I would like the date entered without changing when I update the sheet the day after.
Begin #End #$ Amount# SoldNamePayment AbbreviationDate
Under payment the payment abbreviation we use words like debit, cash, check, etc when selling a ticket. Can you type c in the payment abbreviation field and have it automatically put cash in the same field without using autocorrect?
Look at the attached spreadsheet. It represents the times that the POG (Purchase Order Generator) program takes to run Could you look at producing a graph (easy enough) for the indicated data But then, could you see if you can have an input field in the graph that allows you to enter date – then the graph automatically redisplays for that day’s information only…….? And maybe automatic scaling for the graph? This is something I have been meaning to try – but don't know what to do.
For Example: Enter a date: 291106
**Then the information of what the user entered will automatically display but in a bar graph form. **How I can search for the information through excel? That will make the user easier to search than to find it manually?
