Automatically Selecting Multiple Cells?

Nov 2, 2013

When I click on a cell, for example T13, cell U13 will also automatically be selected. I have looked everywhere for something that is making it do that, but can't find an answer.

It doesn't happen with every cell. I have to do some more clicking around to see if there is a pattern.

Excel 2007 :: Stop Automatically Selecting Multiple Cells

Oct 1, 2009

I use Excel mainly for creating & updating simple logs, and the problem I keep running into is that when I click in a cell, it will automically select & highlight multiple cells below the one I am trying to work in. It will select anywhere from 4-5 cells up to 13. I don't know what this function is, and I don't know how to fix it. But it makes it very difficult to navigate and cut/paste or change a formula.

Excel 2007 :: Automatically Selecting Cells - Highlight As Range

Jul 29, 2008

I'm new to Excel 2007... whilst I'm managing to find most things I'm used to using in 2003, I have an issue in one workbook that I can't figure out.

When I click in some single cells (not all), that cell and several below it automatically highlight as a range... left-clicking initially highlights the cell, but as you release the mouse button, the others below it also highlight.

Logic With Multiple Cells, Selecting Between The Two

Jan 16, 2009

I'm working with Excel 2003 on a peice for work that requires users to enter their current grade and, if they have one, a temporary grade. Another sheet in the workbook needs to add together all those in a certain grade and who answered a certain way to a drop-down table, so that I can use it to figure out what percentage of staff are of each grade. At the moment it looks like this:

=SUMPRODUCT(--(Work_Data!F2:F9827="Grade 1"),--(RIGHT(Work_Data!K2:K9827,3)="Top 25%"))

Which only draws information from the current grade (column F) and the answer they give (Column K). What I can't come up with is a formula that will only take column F as long as column G hasn't got a temporary grade, but if it does have a temporary grade will take column G instead.

Finding And Selecting Multiple Cells

Jan 21, 2010

I'm working on a macro that's supposed to copy certain cells from a sheet, and paste them in another. But the problem is that I can't find a way to get them all in one go. The sheet that I am copying from has a mile-long list that looks something like this:

OR0220018NO-RING 21,95 x 1,78 N270 BS-0205,00
OR0220018N90O-RING 21,95 x 1,78 N290 BS 02022,00
OR0220018VO-RING 21,95 x 1,78 V275 BS-02010,00
OR0220018V90O-RING 21,95 x 1,78 V290 BS 02013,00
OR0220020NO-RING 22,00 x 2,00 N2709,00
OR0220020VO-RING 22,00 x 2,00 V28024,00
OR0220025NO-RING 22,00 x 2,50 N2705,00

It goes over 3 columns. I want to select column A, B and C in every row that contains the letters "N270".

Ignoring Specific Values While Selecting Multiple Cells

Dec 20, 2012

I have to correct a spreadsheet that takes a bunch of values and creates an average.

=average(N15;N29;N43;N57;N71;N85;N99;N113;N127;N141;N155;N169;N183;
N197;N211;N225;N241;N255;N269;N283;N301;N315;N329;N343;N357)*100%

I didn't create this. Anyway, the problem is that most of these cells will be empty unless a whole bunch of other stuff is filled. These N cells take several values, put them together and create a new one. As time goes by they are filled. While they aren't filled, they'll return the DIV/0 error.

So when that formula I pasted there uses all of these values, it also returns a DIV/0 error because it is getting info from cells that have this error.

I managed to correct that with this
=averageif(N15:N357;"<>#DIV/0!")*100%

It works like a charm save for one problem. When I use averageif I'm forced to use an interval. Along this interval other values show up (it is always a value ranging from 0 to 2). So when the formula works its magic the results are slightly skewed because of this other value that I don't want.

So I figure there must be two ways around this. The first one would be using something like averageif that lets me use several handpicked cells instead of an interval. If I try

=averageif(N15;N29;N43;N57;N71;N85;N99;N113;N127;N141;N155;N169;N183;
N197;N211;N225;N241;N255;N269;N283;N301;N315;N329;N343;N357;"<>#DIV/0!")*100%

It doesn't work, it says I have too many values. So if I could the exact same thing as I did with averageif but keeping all of these values it'd be super nice.

The other solution, less nice but equally effective I guess, is using this same interval but having more than one criteria. The first criteria would still be the one telling it to ignore DIV/0 error, the second criteria would be the one to ignore any values equal or lower than 2.

Selecting Multiple Cells To Fill From Dropdown List

Apr 1, 2014

I've made a drop down list and when I select multiple cells and choose from the drop down list, it only fills one. Here's pictures:

So in that first picture, I've selected multiple cells. But when I drop down the menu and click my selection, this happens:

Why is it that all the cells I've selected does not fill with the option that I chose from the drop down. I highly doubt that I have to manually click all the ones I want to fill with what I choose from the drop down list.

Running A Macro To Copy Multiple Cells From A Row By Selecting A Cell

Feb 21, 2009

I want to be able to select a cell, for example A10, this would then run a macro that would copy and paste several cells of information along that row and paste it on another worksheet. However, if i then choose a15, a3, a79 in turn (using the control key), it would run the macro using those rows in turn.

i'm looking forward to hearing if and particuliar how this could be achieved.

Automatically Copy Cell By Selecting It

May 21, 2008

Is there a way to set up a cell so that when you click the cell, the cell’s value is automatically copied to the clipboard?

Example:
A1 = “1”
A2 = “2”
A3 = SUM(A1:A2)

Can you set up cell A3 so that when you pick it with your mouse, “3” is copied to the clipboard ready for you to paste elsewhere?

I have tried searching through the forum to find an answer but nothing has come up.

Automatically Copy Multiple Cells On Change

Jan 26, 2008

I have a worksheet, where i type in the id of a member and its uses vlookup to search that member, i enter all the other data required. I am designing a library system and need to record a loan. I have code off another thread that "Copy Cell On Each Change To Next Blank Cell In Column" The problem with this is that when i implement it in my system i change the id cell and that changes the member but when i changes the ranges in the code it doesn't recognise a change has been made, because of vloookup. Current code i have got for the page is

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address <> "$D$3" Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Value = Target.Value
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Automatically Selecting Dynamic Fields And Requiring Text Entry

Feb 24, 2007

I've got a software test plan that has test cases w/ individual pull-downs to select result states (All individually color-coded thanks to a macro). If any state is selected other than "Pass" or "Untested", a text entry feild appears two rows beneath the test case for additional notes and information regarding what behavior occurred when the test was done.

I need a way to a.) Automatically select this text field once any state other than "Pass" or "Untested" is selected in the pull-down, and b.) Require text entry in the field before the user can proceed to the next test case. (ideally w/ accompanying custom error message describing what information is required.)

Excel 2007 :: If Then Statements Applied To Multiple Cells And Triggered Automatically

Oct 12, 2011

VBA in Excel 2007. Essentially, what I am trying to do is this:

I have to two columns (A and B) that have a drop down list in each cell containing text options. I created the drop down lists using simple data validation. Let's say that A has the following options (East, West, North, South) and B has (Up, Down, Left, Right). For each combination of these, e.g., A1 = East and B1 = Down, I want C1 to pull a unique piece of data (a $ amount) from a separate worksheet. I can get this to work in its most basic form but I want to be able to be able to do this for cells in rows 1 - 300 without having to write separate lines of code for each.

Additionally, I am having trouble getting C1 to update automatically once A1 or B1 are changed.

Code That Automatically Run After Selecting Item In Data Validation Dropdown List In Column C

Oct 12, 2011

I have a dropdown list in C24:C50 (=CategoryList) with data validation and a sub list in D24:D50 (=ItemList) with data validation. I am looking for a way to have code automatically run after selecting an item in the data validation dropdown list in column C.

Example; I click on C24 and make a selection. I what it to trigger code that would move me to D24 and open up the data validation list in D24. After the selection in D24 I would like it to move me back and down 1 row to C25. I have not found anything directly related to this but I have found that code can be run after a selection in a valadition list.

Selecting Answer From Multiple Cell

Dec 27, 2013

So I am creating a board game in excel. I currently have a draw card feature to draw random cards. I also have section above where you can fill in the answer to the question and another 2 sections that flip to correct or incorrect. Those formulas work as =IF(AND(Sheet1!J6="When resubmitting the claim to another insurance should you be voiding an adjustment to the S code if one is posted?",Sheet1!I2="Yes"),"That is Correct!"," "). I have another for if Sheet1!i2="no" then it flips to that is incorrect. I want an OR formula that will be like if multiple cells have any text in them it will display them but only one cell at a time. So essentially a way for multiple questions to be able to be drawn and you can answer those questions and be told if they are correct or not.

Trying to select multiple shapes based on shape properties. The missing piece is the code to select the shapes. The examples in the help use the 'Array' function with a list of shape names.

Is there a way to select a random set of shapes without using the Array function?

Selecting Values In Multiple Colums For A Sum

Mar 5, 2009

I am trying to create a spreadsheet to select different values. I have 5 columns with type A values then 3 cols with type B values, a blk col then 1 cols with type B values and 5 cols with type A values then 1 cols with type B values and 2 cols with type A values a blank 1 col with a B value, 2 cols with A values and 2 cols with B values. [ A A A A A B B B Blank B A A A A A B A A Blank B A A B B ]

I need to select 5 lowest values from this set but a minimum of three A values need to be used. I have used the min, small 2, small 3 for the A set then used an IF statement for the fourth value. The formula returns the correct sum for values up to the fourth value. The problem comes on the fifth value. I am attaching the formula I started with.

=(MIN(F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3))+(SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),2))+(SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),3))+(IF((MIN(K3: M3,U3)<SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),4)),(MIN(K3:M3,U3)),(SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),4))))+(IF(SMALL((K3: M3,U3),2)<SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),5),SMALL((K3:M3,U3),2),(SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),5))))

Selecting Multiple Separate Ranges

Dec 23, 2006

I'm trying to get multiple seperate ranges selected but Excel interprets it as criteria even when I use Insert> Function. The problem probably comes from the use of commas in formulae. Example:

I want A1:E1 and A3:E3 and A5:E5 to be the range involved which leads me to construct:

= COUNTIF(A1:E1,A3:E3,A5:E5...

Selecting/changing Multiple Dropdown Boxes At Once

Feb 20, 2008

I'm working with Excel 2002 on Windows XP.

I want to select more than one drop down box at the same time, and copy them as well as rename the cells they refer to.

For example: in A1 there will be a box with LinkedCell set to A1 and ListFillRange set to B1:B5. I now want a similar box in A2, with A2 as LinkedCell. However, when I copy past the box in A1, it still refers to A1 and B1:B5 (the last part is ok). I can easily change A1 to A2 by just changing it in the properties, but the thing is that I also need these boxes in A3:A100. Is there any faster way of changing this?

Also, the ListFillRange might expand in the future. Therefor I would like to know if its possible to select the boxes in A1:A100 and change the ListFillRange to B1:B6 for all at once.
