In a A1 I have 300 in A2 I have 200.
I go to charts and select pie chart and get a graphic illustration of the split.
I'm not sure how I label the different colours?
I want to show that purple = Yes and red = No. I also would like to be able to display the values 200 and 300 on the chart (as happens when you drag the mouse over).
For example if I were to take the data in cells d3($358), d4($321), d5($130), d6($82) and skip a cell to now make the same data into cells d3, d5, d7, d9. Next, the data in cells f3, f4, f5, f6 would be merge into the blank cells of d4, d6, d8, d10.
The final result would look like column B. I have over two years of sales data in two separate columns that I need to merged into one column. Is there easier way without a simple cut and paste one cell at a time as this would take an enormous amount of time to complete? I’m not that good with VBA codes so a formula works good, but if VBA is the way to go then tell how to enter it on my worksheet.
So I have a bar chart with numbers as its data labels...so each bar is divided into 4 colors equaling to 100% ...how can i show percentages next to numbers in the chart...so for example if a bar equals to 200 and each color is lets say 20, 60, 40, 80 ...i would like to show these numbers as well as percentages..i know we can do this manually by inserting a text box but the percentages might change quite often and i dont want to go through the hassle of calculating and changing them each time.

I found this old thread that shows a simple method: [URL]
BUT, I do not want the series to appear in the legend if it is not plotted.
I've been working on this chart for a while and can't seem to get my x and y axis as well as my series corrected. I have time and distance but since my distances are small I cant seem to make sense on how best to depict my data. Right now it is shown as data points but would love to show value.

I have a worksheet with columns formatted to total in RED if negative & BLACK if positive. However, despite redoing time & time again, although the total is positive, the colour of the text is PURPLE? All surrounding cells are formatted correctly. Why cant I get rid of this PURPLE?
View 6 Replies View RelatedWhen I open a new worksheet it is purple. The fill color bucket it defaulted to no fill. I select the entire worksheet and click on the 'no fill' and get a normal white background. If I delete anything on the spreadsheet, where the items were deleted the background is again purple. I have to select and again click on 'no fill'. I am constantly fighting this creaping purple. Just started about a week ago.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI would like to do is develop a stand alone program in Visual Basic ( not in Excel VBA) to update the price file in our Portfolio system automatically using the downloaded Excel format file csv extention file from the BigCharts. But before that, I need to export the *.pri file from our Portfolio system in to Excel which still saves as *.pri extention. Then once it updates, I import the updated *.pri file back in our Portfolio program. I understand that the Excel VBA code can be incorporated in Visual Basic code provided there is an object declaration for Excel file (In this case eventhough the both files are in Excel format, they don't have xls extention). how to use external files and Excel VBA code in Visual Basic?

I'd like a macro that does 3 things..
1. Find the last row (cell) of data in the "Customer Number" column. This search should be by the name "Customer Number" rather than by column letter because the column that "Customer Number" will be in can change.
2. Find the column named "Purple" (also by name for same reason)
3. If the "Purple" column has no blank cells in those same number of rows as the "Customer Number" column, delete the whole "Purple" column.

I am trying to put some charts into a report that is pivot table based.

I have been working on an app for a while now and it works for all our PC users. We have some folks in corporate who have macs and the thing just falls on it's face. So, I have taken out the vba on the thisworkbook start up bits in hopes that it can just open and go from there. This is also problematic. So in search on the web, it looks like Macs do not like VBA. So I decided that since the main page entry is just standard formulas, I would just remove all the modules, forms and macros out of the workbook so the whole problem side could be avoided. Well no such luck. When I open it, it asks about macros. If I disable them, it tells me that the macro can not be disabled in 4.0. I built the app in 2000 as it is the lowest version in the office. But this really shouldn't matter because there are no macros in it to start with.
So, my question is... How can I make a very basic, mac safe version from my PC version. I can draw up some VBA to open the mac version and suck in the info I need and save it to PC land.
I am using a user form in excel VB.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI used to use VB and VBA years ago for fun, now I have a project at work and I havent touched it since 1999 at least. I am trying to program a function that I can call and pass it a text variable. It will search through excel for that text, and return a cell as a Range. Thats where I run into problems. Heres the
Function lookFor(text As String)
lookFor = Columns("B:C").Find(text, After:=rCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False _
, SearchFormat:=False).Address
End Function
'...then later in the code...
Private Sub search_idBTN_Click()
'...
Dim rCell As Range
Set rCell = lookFor(searchTXT)
'...
End Sub
I think it has something to do with the variable type, its expecting a range and it gets a string or vice versa or something.

I have the below formula to make a simple calculation:
=SUM(AC1880+AJ1880)
I would like to adapt the formula to ask IF AG1880 is empty or not. If AG1880 is empty then I would like the formula to NOT make the calculation, but instead return "--" (nothing).
If it contains information, then I want the calculation (AC1880+AJ1880) to be made. If AG1880 contains information it will be text in a text format.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy company "makes widgets". Each "type of widget" is associated in our internal database with a record locator (five alpha characters). Our company website can also use that record locator to pull up a webpage specifically dedicated to that widget. In addition to the webpage itself, the website also creates an expanded URL which contains additional information about that widget.
I'd like my macro to take a list of record locators, open up the company website related to each specific widget, pull back the expanded URL, and do some text management with the URL to populate other parts of the spreadsheet.
For example, if my record locator is "ABCDE", my macro would go to the website, "http://www.widgets.com/ABCDE". The site then redirects to an expanded URL: "http://www.widgets.com/whole-bunch-of-data-about-the-ABCDE-widget". I'd hope to write a macro which pulls back the expanded URL and does some magic with the "whole bunch of data" part. I've been told that the MSHTML library would be useful for a project of this type. I've been able to connect my spreadsheet to that library, but then I'm not sure what to do with it.

Is it possible to have Excel tap into an Access database and call up a function?

Have a project going and have had a disturbing trend develop. I'm working in Excel 2003. Upon opening the file and enabling macros, I started receiving File/Path errors, at which point it would shut down the application. When opened, I have a splash that would come up, but it wouldn't go to the next userform. At this point I would get the error message and the file would be closed. If I then reopened the file, disabled macros, saved under a different file name, and then reopened with macros enabled, everything worked fine, until I shut it down and then tried to reopen, at which point the same error would occur.
Lately I have simply been getting the Microsoft Excel dialogue box telling me an unexpected error occurred and it had to be shut down. I'm at a loss for what is causing this. The last time this happened, when Excel recovered the file, it told me a repair had been done, and the repair was to basically delete all of the VBA code from the file.
I am encountering a situation wherein each line of VBA code is essentially compiled as I type on that line, instead of when I move to a different line. For example, if the code I entered is incorrect, the compiler waits about half a second and then turns it red. Also, if I enter a space, it deletes it immediately.
