Automatic Search Of Data Set

Jun 9, 2009

I'm kind of rusty with spreadsheets and Excel 2007 is entirely new to me. I'm not even sure what I'm trying to do would be called.

I have a spreadsheet that is a list of records; a name, ID number, one text, and four numeric columns per record.

I would like to make a set of buttons or something that will automatically do a custom sort. Basically a "sort by this criteria, sort by different criteria" etc. so I don't have to manually do the sort repeatedly.

Large Set Of Process Data - Automatic Search And Copy

Nov 28, 2012

From a large set of process data, I would like to copy those instances where there is indeed a measurement available to a different sheet automatically.

The original data looks like this:

Time Temperature
02-Jan-2010 11:41:50 156.1
02-Jan-2010 11:42:50
02-Jan-2010 11:43:50
02-Jan-2010 11:44:50 157.3
02-Jan-2010 11:45:50
02-Jan-2010 11:46:50 156.8
02-Jan-2010 11:47:50 156.4
02-Jan-2010 11:49:50
02-Jan-2010 11:50:50 157.2

The resulting data shoot look like this (in a different sheet):

Time Temperature
02-Jan-2010 11:41:50 156.1
02-Jan-2010 11:44:50 157.3
02-Jan-2010 11:46:50 156.8
02-Jan-2010 11:47:50 156.4
02-Jan-2010 11:50:50 157.2

I have actually been learning quite a few tricks on my own since I started this data analysis project but I believe this requires some experience with macros, which I really don't have.

Automatic Search/Copy/Paste Between Sheets, How?

Mar 13, 2009

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.

Search Function (locate Data) Search All Sheets Within The Workbook

Sep 14, 2009

Using the search macro code below, could someone please help to add in more codes what I'm currently using, and also where to insert it. The Search function works well for what I need and it helps me to locate data. When using the search function somehow it search all sheets within the workbook but I only want it to search an array of sheets when using this macro that is needed to complete the task for what I'm after.

Automatic Data Selection?

Oct 14, 2008

I'm trying to create a new spreadsheet to keep a record of orders recieved.

the example attached. What I would like to do is:-

Enter data in the Order Sheet (Sheet 1) under Column C, from a drop down menu taken from Data Sheet (Sheet 2) Column B. I then want Excel to filter the items available from Sheet 2 that correspond to the colour chosen, and once that has been done, I want the part number to be automatically entered.

For example, I order a Red pen, I type/select Red in C2 in D2, I then want Excel to only show the items related to the Red pen Fine nib rd123, Medium nib rd234, Thick nib rd345.

Automatic Looking Up Data In Another Sheet

Dec 16, 2009

It i a sheet to calculate my nutrition. But since the sheets has grown to get bigger and bigger (and fortunately me as well ) some bugs has started to appear. This is really annoying and I have to use another sheet with less values in it which I can use manually on the side since it seams to only work properly when less values is entered in the sheet.

Open the file attached. The first sheet called "oversikten" is where you can see the trouble. The gray fields you can edit freely and in these fields you should be able to insert a type of product (food) which also is in the list in the nexy sheet called "produkter", and the first sheet should then automatically get the values for the written product given you have written the exact same word as the product in the list (list: in the "produkter" sheet). But for some reason this has stopped working. Now only a few in the beginning of the list is working as it should and most of the products will not be transferred to the first "oversikten" sheet. I've only copied codes and stuff so I have no idea what is wrong and how to fix this.

fix the codes in the program so that any product written in "oversikten" will get its correct values transferred from the "produkter" sheet for all the registered products now and for the new ones I enter in the future. I love this little nutrition program of mine.

Automatic Refresh Data In VB

May 11, 2006

I have an excel file with a link to an access database. when you open the excel file it prompts to refresh the data enable/disable. I select enable and the excel file is saved as a different file and the query reference in the new saved file is deleted (static version)

I have managed to write code to remove the database link from the new saved as file but what I still havent figured out is that the source excel file is refreshed automaticly when the script is running. I have set the database properties on automatic refresh on open which works if I activate manualy the file but with script down below, it does not refresh the data automaticly. What is the VB code to refresh the data in the source XLS file??

Sub main()
Dim prompt As Long
prompt = 200503
Dim objExcelApp As Object
Set objExcelApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
objExcelApp.displayalerts = False
objExcelApp.Workbooks.Open "c: emp est.xls" 'this file has the connection with the access database.
objExcelApp.Visible = True....................

Automatic Update Of Data If Changes Made

Jul 1, 2014

The workbook I have has a tab for Master List of Transactions - there is data in columns A through J. In column E, when a year is entered, the data in columns A through D is copied to a tab for the specific year entered in column E. When the data from columns A through D is copied to the specific year's tab, it does not change anymore. If the information is changed at all on the Master tab, the macro does not currently work to automatically update the information on the specific year's tab but I would like it to. Is this possible?

Here is the macro I currently have:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
' Code goes in the Worksheet specific module
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Dim rng As Range
Dim row_copy As Integer

[Code] ......

How to automatically update the year tabs for changes on the Master List of Transactions tab.

Automatic Data Based On A Variable

Jan 3, 2008

I would like to enter a vacation code in E5 (V12) and have it automatically enter "VACATION DAY (12 HRS * $15/HR) in K5 and calculate the amount in L5. Of course, there are variables involved here:

V indicates that it is a vacation day.

12 indicates the number of vacation hours to be taken.

The $15/hr comes from the value in I5.

I don't know if this should be handled as a VLOOKUP along with other methods or if this is something that needs to be handled in VB?

Automatic Way To Enter Data Into COUNTIF Formula?

May 21, 2014

I have a huge (for a newbie ) spreadsheet where every item is associated with several key words. There about 500 key words, all in the same column, and I have to build a table identifying the total frequency of each key word. Basically, the first column of the table I've created lists all the possible key words, and the second one is all the COUNTIF formulae, each one being associated with its corresponding key word. The formula I need to use is this one :

=COUNTIF($D$2:$D$8486;"corresponding key word from column 1")

The formula works well and my table looks fine, but the task of copying and pasting 500 key words into each occurrence of the formula is pretty daunting! is there an automatic way to enter each key word into the corresponding formula without having to do it manually? Otherwise, is there a more direct way or another formula that would give me the information I need? Surely there's a more efficient way to do this, but I just don't know how!

Automatic Consolidation Of Data From Multiple Sheets?

Jul 23, 2014

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.

Automatic Custom Filter On Dynamic Data

Nov 27, 2008

I need a function/macro that will find all rows that have a specified value in column A and extract selected columns to a new spreadsheet. More, I need it to do it for every value in column A.

I would also like it to skip creation of new worksheet if value in selected row and column is null.*

I've been trying to combat this problem with advanced filters, which helped, but due to size of the data and range of values in column A it takes an entire day to process manually. Because the data is exported to another program after it's processed, it can't stay in the same sheet, also, linking back to the original sheet doesn't work because the data changes all the time.

Automatic Data Entry To Separate Workbook From Userform

Jul 30, 2013

I have a userform, UserForm1, which lives in a spreadsheet called 'Data Entry.xls' There is nothing else on the spreadsheet itself, it's just for the use of a userform.

I would like the user to populate textboxs in UserForm1 but have that update cells in a separate spreadsheet 'Training.xls' in the same directory.

I have this code at the moment to find the next empty row and to input data into it, which is working perfectly to enter data to sheet1 in Data Entry.xls:

[CODE]Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

eRow = Sheet1.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
Cells(eRow, 1) = TextBox1.Text
Cells(eRow, 2) = TextBox2.Text
Cells(eRow, 3) = TextBox6.Text

End Sub[CODE]

How can i modify it so it would do the same thing, i.e find the next empty row and then populate with what the user types in the textbox but in Sheet1 of 'Training.xls'

Would 'Training.xls' need to be open?

Automatic Refresh Of Pivot Table On Changes In External Data Source?

Dec 4, 2013

I have a pivot table report connected to an external data source (OLAP cube).I want to automatically refresh the pivot table report everytime the OLAP cube data changes.

I know we can use Automatic refresh on open of workbook or time intervals after which to refresh .But i want the auto refresh to work even if the workbook is already open and there is no definite time interval after which the cube is likely to change.SO,by defining intervals for auto refresh i do not intend to waste time refreshing even if there is no change.

There are multiple pivot table reports and pivot charts connected to the same OLAP cube.

Excel Macro To Move Data From One Sheet - Search Another And Paste Data

Mar 28, 2014

I have two worksheets. Sheet 1 has 2 columns, Column A the restaurant's name and Column B contains the review score. So sheet 1 is kinda like this:

Restaurant |Score
Ruby Tuesdays 80
TGIF 78
Outback 92

Sheet 2, Row 1 column B-E contain restraurant names (only on the top row, like field names).. i.e. I manually put the date in because typically the projected date is different from the actual review date.

-A----------- B ----------------C ------D-------- E-----
Date |Ruby Tuesdays|Olive Garden|TGIF|Ruths Chris|

I need the data from Sheet 1 Column B moved to sheet 2 in the next open row (i currently have data in row 1..the field names and down to row 35). This will be continuous so each time i need it to add the score as a new row in the correct field (restaurant name), IF the restaurant isnt listed, I want a new field named with the restaurant name and then place the score in the correct row and column. So, in the example I'd need Outback added.
