Automatically Populate Another Cell When One Is Updated?
Apr 27, 2014
I have a spreadsheet where vehicle milage is entered at the end of each month. On another sheet I have the vehicle fleet numbers and the the months along the top. What I need to happen is; when the mileage cell is updated I need the cell in the other sheet to be automatically populated, when the mileage is updated the next month I need the next cell(February)to be populated with the new milage and so on. The aim is to calculate monthly milage for each vehicle without having to enter the date at the beginning and end of the month.
Everyone I work with is completely computer illiterate and only knows how to enter the data the same way they always have(just the once at the end of the month) changing it up will only cause issues.
I have created a spreadsheet that displays new dates in column D based on provided dates in Column B and recurrence intervals selected in column C. The dates in column D are when a training deadline occurs. I have been trying to get a macros written so that when a cell in column d is updated, an outlook appointment message is sent to the person doing the updating. The idea here is that anyone can use this without future coding (so their address would be placed in cell say A1)
So far all i have gotten is excel to send an email to me with the excel spreadsheet as an attachment, not really what I want. Again, I dont want somethign specific to my computer settings, I want to be able to send the spreadsheet out with simple instructions for the user to change their email in cell A1 and then every time a cell changes in column D, it automatically generate an appointment reminder for the new date.
1) for example i have two files Master.xls and client.xls , when ever the client.xls updated with values the master should automatically updated by the same values.
If i use the link concept , once the user delete the row then master file also automatically updated. So here i want to restrict the permissions to master file.
how can we do that ?
2 - Macros) I like to filter the data as per the column value. In case of less numbers we can hardcode the values for filter criteria. (by declaring an array variable and assigning the values to the array)
But if the values are very high how can we get assign the criteria dynamically ?
I have a worksheet in my Excel wookbook that references particular cells from another sheet. I use a simple macro to alter the values in some of these cells, but for some utterly bizzare reason, the cells referencing them are not updated. The only way to update the cells is to click on the cell and press Enter!
I've never had this problem before.
Does anyone know why this is, or perhaps know of a line of VBA code that updates every cell on a particular worksheet.
i am working on a spreadsheet that includes a large amount of statistical numbers / records. one part includes a win / loss column and the very next column i am entering the final score for each game. to max this easier to comprehend, there are only 3 columns. 1st column lists my opponent, the 2nd lists, with just a red L for loss, or a green W for win, and the 3rd column has the final score. (my score is always first, regardless of whether i won or lost the game.)
OPP F SCORE -------------------------------------------------- John W 23-10 Paul L 17-25 Terri W 10-7
This is what i'm searching for: (and the easiest way possible b/c i'm not familiar with macros / visual basic, etc.) ... Once i enter the score: ##-##, I would like the "F" (final outcome) cell to automatically populate either a bold red L for a loss, or a bold green W for a win. My scores are almost never 3 digits, so they would almost always be ##-##. if u need me to provide more info,
I am very new to using excel and I need connecting the information between two sheets. I have a weekly schedule that I want to use for my employees. I want that information to automatically be moved to a daily schedule. I need to be able to see how many openers closers and mid-shifts I have and how many hours I am consuming from my budget. I want the shifts from the schedule to be moved to the daily schedules in order in chronological order (morning shifts first, then mid-day/closers). If at all possible how I would like to have the span of their shift to be highlighted in the cells on the daily schedule.I will attach what I have so far to provide as much info as possible.
I have a macro that copies data from 6 different worksheets into one summary worksheet - based on certain criteria - I need a way to note on each row of the summary sheet which worksheet it was copied from. Each worksheet is specific to a salesperson, so ideally I would like that salespersons last name to populate in column on the summary page for each line of theirs that is copied over....here is my current macro I use to copy the data: (this scrpit is repeated for each sales persons sheet - "Blankenship", "Dew", etc...)
I have a spreadsheet with 6 hidden columns (B to G). Rows 1 to 14 are frozen and have data that comes from another work book and these rows will be protected. The user will enter data from H14 to U14 and then H15 to U15 for the next row and so on down the sheet. The number of rows of data over a week is variable, a minimum of 21 rows (3 per day) but no maximum.
When the user starts entering new data in the column range H to U I would like to automatically populate the 6 hidden cells on that row with information from particular cells in protected rows 1 to 14. For example B14 would populate with the value from I4, C14 would populate with the value from I5, D14 from I6, E14 from I7 and so on whenever someone enters a value anywhere from H14 through to U14.
I can understand that a worksheet change event would be useful to do this but I guess then it wouldn't want to run every time each cell is populated so I think if it had to activate on a single cell change then the cell in column L would be best. Also, as I understand it, there can be only one block of code per sheet that operates on a worksheet change event, have I got that right? If that is the case then I assume all the code to populate the hidden cells on each row will need to be in this block of code.
I use 2010 and I will try and I need to complete a relatively simple project that I am working on.
I have a range of cells, "D7:Q30". This range has numerical values that are updated automatically (every cell within the range has a numerical value) from an "old value" to a "new value". The refresh rate is not constant, that is the values may change at any time depending on when a value changes I think it is called "pushed" data. Once a value is updated ("new value"), it stays at that value until one of the updates changes its value (and then it becomes the "old value").
I would like a message box to display the following EACH TIME A CELL CHANGES ITS VALUE when the NEW updated value is LESS THAN the OLD value:
"B51, B52, **5, has a changed value from "old value" to "new value".
The ** above in the message box represents the following: If for example cell F23 changes, ** in the message box should be the value that is in cell F5. If Q10 changes, the ** value in the message box should be Q5. It will always be the value in Row5 but have a different column depending on where the change is detected.
B51 is the text value in B51..same for B52 (text) etc...these values change depending on what spreadsheet I have open, but will always be in those cell positions. But the values within the range D7:Q30 are always numeric.
I want to create a communication excel sheet. I want it in such a way that if any one of the team member make update and save the file, then the whole team should receive an email that the file has been updated.
I am working on Excel 2010. I want to find a way to link data from one spreadsheet to another one and whenever I update the first spreadsheet, the second one will be automatically updated?
just wanted to know of how to quickly link cells and columns from one cell to the next without using the equals function because i have about 75 individual sheets to do.
so there is a master sheet which includes operators name and # i would like for one person to key in numbers into that master sheet ("ENTRIES")
everytime that individual enters info into that sheet, i would like it to be entered into sheet "#1"
I've asked this similar question on another message board (the Microsoft help community), but failed to follow-up quickly enough for the support I've come here to ask for. My situation involves a spreadsheet that is used to track days worked over the course of a week. I have the days of the week listed in one row (Sun - Sat) and in the row above, a place to put the day (i.e. - 3/28). I asked for help with a macro that would allow the user to place the date into any of the cells above the days of the week, check to ensure that the corresponding day of the week is correct, and if so, populate the other remaining empty dates automatically. Below is the macro that was kindly provided. It works perfectly as long as my data is in the referenced ranges (A1:G1, etc); however, my actual data is in range L6:R6 for the dates and L7:R7 for the day of the week. (example below). I've been able to pick apart the code to understand how to change most of the macro to accept input from the different range; however, I'm unable to comprehend what I'm missing to complete the modification.
I have a userform that pops up upon opening a file. The user form has 5 text boxes names Zero, Two, Four, Seven and Nine. I would like each of these text boxes to automatically populate with the values last used. The values last used are stored in Worksheet "Index Settings" in Cells "C3:C7".
I need to summarize some information from a different worksheet. Worksheet A(WS-A) is the summary and worksheet B (WS-B) is the source of information. On WS-B I have a range of values under the title "Materials" which I use to put together an estimate. This range has about 25 rows and not all of them are populated depending on the needs of the particular job.
If it matters, the Materials cells are populated by a drop down "list" from yet another worksheet. On the summary (WS-A) I want to show only the cells from WS-B that have a value in them so that if, within the Materials worksheet, there are only 6 rows that have data in them...only those 6 rows are shown on the summary worksheet.
I'd like to automatically populate a 9 box grid using data from Excel. The number of names for each rating can be anything from 1 to 100 so the size of the grid would need to be adjustable. I would like one table for each function and grade. Attached is what I'm trying to do. In the 'example tables' sheet, I've shown how I'd like the tables to look, but with my live data the tables would be bigger so I'd like to do one table per worksheet (or possibly one function per worksheet - so 3 tables).
I have a spreadsheet that contains many lines of information that will constantly be added to and updated. One of the columns contains a drop down with 4 possible options. I am trying to get the data to copy to a sheet based on 1 of the 4 options selected. So for example, if Education is selected, then that row of data should also appear in the Education sheet. Same goes if one of the other options is selected.
I have seen several examples on this forum, but they are mostly macros (or formulas that don't quite apply). I am trying to use formulas so that the information is updated live so macros don't really seem to be a viable option.
I am including a sample of the spreadsheet with data on the main sheet and how I want it to look when it is transferred over to the other sheets. I had to substitute a lot of the information (with numbers or filler words) due to it being confidential.
I would like to know how to automatically populate a combobox with the data in a certain range. Attached is a simple workbook with the example. I know how to do this with the additem. But I dont know how to create the array or userform initialize to populate the combobox with the range.
I have a worksheet where I need to match the work items from Region A to Region B. If the work items match , then I need the formula to automatically populate the corresponding data in the next 3 columns as similar to Region A. I have tried searching the forum and but I could not work out the formula. I am not sure if the formula is Vlookup or INDEX/Match which both I am not well verse. I have attached a sample sheet.
If in Cell A2 I have a function that updates it's number value automtically (i.e. From 5 to 7) and in cell B2 I have a value I wanted subtracted to the value Cell A2 updated by. Is this task possible?
In the I.e example, cell A2 had an updated value by 2, will it be possible to subtract that value in Cell B2 and continue doing so if Cell A2 kept updating?
I have code which when run thru manually in VBA says it has updated the contents of the cell in a sheet. Indeed the code all reacts as if it has updated the cell in memory, however the actual spreadsheet cell has not been updated. This has happened in the past and then magically starts working wthout change.
