Cannot Calculate Cells With Numbers
Apr 15, 2008
I really didn't want to create this thread, but this is really bugging me and I have had asked for assistance with this. I have tried to bump this in March and again last week, I have given more than 48 hours for a response, but I am seeing that the view counter is increasing so slowly, it was at 84 when I 'bumped' and I am not sure if someone is able to help me as the thread is moving further down the line.
I have not had any trouble with what I have used in over a year, I have had used Vlookup religously for 2 years, and for the last 3 months, I have encountered this problem. Didn't think anything of it the first time it happened. It was explained that there was a space in the cell, which is why the formula did not find it. What's strange is that it only happens on one cell. I haven't determined if it is the exact same cell reference, but I am researching that.
The formatting is the same, in both sheets. Is there some way to vlookup look up the value of the contents as seen?

I am trying to generate a formula that will add the last 17 cells over 25 cells worth of data. If there is nothing entered in one of the cells then the formula should add the next cell.
i.e. column Z needs to add A1:Y1 but only add the last 17 cells that have a number in it so this should add I1:Y1 to give 17 cells worth of data. BUT if for example L1 and P1 are zero, then column Z needs to add G1:Y1, still giving 17 cells worth of data.

Example:
Data Set: (20, 25, 18, 40, 23, 22, 73, 7, 38, 28, 52, 96, 4, 99,2)
Way to create: 100
Answer 1: 25, 73, 2
Answer 2: 38, 2, 40

I'm using sum to calculate numbers can I modify it not to calculate numbers? like it'll return blank or something else. Because it calculates alphabets in a row and returns a 0.
tSumthing = "=SUM(RC4:RC[-1])"
then based on the 0's I got above, it'll delete the row. I got diffculty modifying the formula below.
Columns(1).SpecialCells(xlBlanks).EntireRow.Delete

Whilst I was searching through the channels on telly the other night I came across a 'Quiz Call' channel where you had to add ALL the number within a certain sum (see sample) Sixteen minus five times seven multiply by nine add twelve
You not only have to do the sum you also have to add in all the less obvious numbers like the Six within Sixteen, plus also all the Roman numbers in each word like the I, X, & IX within the sixteen. I've done a small example to show what I mean, but I don't have any idea how to create a formula that will add up all of all of the permitations of roman numerals within each word.

It is quicker and easier for me to enter times as whole numbers.
I tried to Catinate the number and enter the ":" in the middle. Example
I enter 815 and then =":" &RIGHT(a1,2) and get :15 but how do I add the 8 and convert the new number to time?

I want to convert the number in a cell, G7, from a whole number into a decimal and then divide that decimal into a whole number in cell E7 and give me the quotient in cell E8.
ie:312 = 6.0
286 = 5.5
260 = 5.0
234 = 4.5
208 = 4.0
182 = 3.5
156 = 3.0
130 = 2.5
104 = 2.0
78 = 1.5
52 = 1.0
Could this also be done with the entire range of numbers from 312 to 52 and giving decimals of 6.0, 5.9, 5.8 etc.

Today I have a project as follows:
I have value1, search value1 in a row, if found get cell address and store in cell10. Then value2, search in the same row, if found get cell address and store in cell11. Then calculate number of rows between cells with addresses in stored in cell10 and cell11.
How do store the addresses and how to calculate this number of cells?
I need that number to use in next FOR loop.

what I'm trying to do.
Background:
I play a game that requires 5 members to play, however you can have more then 5 members on the team. In order for a player to receive points for playing they must have played at least 30% of the total games played. The problem for me is when trying to figure out how many games someone needs to play to get to 30%, the total goes up as they play those games.
What I would like to accomplish:
I'm looking for help on a formula that would figure out how many games a player would need to play to get to 30%. I have a column that is total games played, %of games played by player, games played by player, and games needed to play to get to 30%. Basically the user would enter the # of games played by each player, and the total games played overall for the team for that week, the spreadsheet would then show the # of games each player that isn't above 30% would need to play.
I tried to make the question as clear as possible, if anyone needs clarification,

I have done is created an Officer Evaluation Form in Word for my Police Chief and the Scores for the different observations are: N/A, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. If for example there are 4 observations and one of the observations is "N/A" for not applicable or not observed and the rest are all 5's I want the formula to ignore the field(s) with the N/A and still come up with an average of 5. The way I have it set up now which is: =AVERAGE(KOW1,KOW2,KOW3,KOW4) it comes up with an average of 3 when I put a N/A in field KOW1 and all 5's in KOW2-KOW4.

An age-old controversy has resurfaced in our lab regarding the calculation of a mean and standard deviation of a set of two numbers. There have always been those who say that you can't have a standard deviation of two numbers, but now someone has said that a mean of two numbers is meaningless (no pun intended). What is the current thinking on this? Of course, mathematically speaking, you can certainly calculate these values with only two numbers, but is a mean of two numbers not considered a valid measurement? How about a standard deviation?

I am using Excel 2010 and I am trying to calculate 4 different factors' (columns) values which are numbers. Based on my analysis I will assign the value from 1-5 for each factor and at the end I have to decide the priority (a new column) adding all 4 columns' numbers. My Priority column has three criteria (High, Medium, and Low) but I don't know what formula/function to use and how. I have tried IF function but did not work.

I'm going to be using a spreadsheet to keep track of where different people are at. So if Person 1 is in Room 3, I will stick a 3 in the box next to their name and then can look at the spreadsheet whenever I need and see what room they are in. When I'm deciding what room to put a person in, though, I need to be able to quickly glance at a list of Room #'s and see what one's are still available. So I have a bank of Room #'s in the spreadsheet....1,2,3, etc.
What I'd like, is some way to set this up so that when I put, for example, "3" in the cell next to "Person 1" the spreadsheet automatically removes "3" from the bank of available Room #'s and when I delete the "3" because the person has left, it adds "3" back to the bank of available Rooms.

I have a mass of data which look something like this:
table removed
and I require the ranges of reference numbers to be listed in a column one above the other, which requires inserting new rows. I also need the date & description columns copied down into the newly inserted rows.
So basically for example I would want the top row to now read:
table removed
and then apply the same procedure to the other ranges below this.

I had a question about adding numbers, sort of like algebra equations (best description I can think of) into a spread sheet. Example:
Cell A1: 8
Cell A2: 8l
Cell A3: 8ls
Cell A4: 8l
Cell A5: 8
Cell A6: -where I want the total to be displayed in the following way: 16+16l+8l
Is this even possible to calculate by grouping like numbers?

In the example above, I would like to do a vlookup in column C that matches the digits in column A to those in column F, with the output being the corresponding value in column G. I believe it involves the left function but not sure how to really use it here.
