I am trying to have a cell in a diffrent work sheet display information from another sheet.
I entered ='Weapons Table'!A48 and it is displaying in text not what is actually in that cell.
on the cell above it I have entered ='Weapons Table'!A47 and it displays fine.
I've tried typing = then just clicking the cell, and it is still just displaying it as text. I've spent 3 days on this sheet and have only 1 error, that is driving me crazy.
Take the displayed date from a cell, in this case formatted as yyyymmdd, and simply display the date as plain text, not converted to the 1900 date system. For example, I have a date cell that reads 20080610, but everything I have tried returns 39609. But I want it to return 20080610 in plain text so that I can use RIGHT and LEFT functions to extract the year, month and day.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have one cell with $20,000 hard coded (cell A1). In another cell I want the cell to say "20,000 Capital Raise" (cell B1). And i want B1 to link to A1 so that if i change the number in A1 it will also change in B1.
Here's what i have in B1 so far: ="$"&J6&" Capital Raise"
This produces "$20000 Capital Raise" in cell B1.
So the only thing i'm trying to figure out is how to get the comma in the $20,000 so it will read "$20,000" instead of "$20000".
I want the contents of the text box (which will be input by the user) to update a cell in another worksheet. I have found numerous examples of how to display the contents of a cell in the text box but I want to know how to display the text box contents in a cell.

AB1ValueResult29292.50*10+8952*15+8550*10
I have the following data on a spreadsheet created by a formula:
A1: 1.1234
A2. 2.234
A3: 3.34
I have the data formatted to only have two decimal places so it looks like this:
A1: 1.12
A2: 2.23
A3: 3.34
I'm using the following formula in cell B1 to display the values of those cells in a single cell in order A1,A2,A3:
=A1 & "," & A2 & "," & A3
However when the values of A1, A2 and A3 appear in the in cell B1 they appear as: 1.1234,2.234,3.34
Is there a way I can edit the formula or format something so the values in B1 appear as with only two decimal places? i.e 1.12,2.23,3.34
I want to be able to record the highest value displayed in a cell (b2) in another cell (c2). Cell b2 is a cell that has continuously updating numbers from a live feed, which are updated approximately every second.
--I'm not sure if I need to have a log created based on the changing numbers. If so, I wouldn't anticipate the length of time to determine the highest value would be more than 7 hours.
--Is there a function/filter that would be able to report the highest number recorded?
I'm typing the formula straight into the cell and funny thing happens: the cell displays the formula, but not the result...
SO now I can see =A2+B2 and no values.
Is it possible to display only one character when using drop down menu? For example, if the drop down choices are A=...., B=...., etc., is it possible to only display the A or B in the cell after you've made your selection?
The purpose of this spreadsheet is to obtain data that will be entered into an application. So it would be very useful if it could be printed on one page - and the columns only show A, B, C, etc. Also, as it is now, the spreadsheet is difficult to work on because there is so much visible text.
his is of Jaafarian proportions. This is in relation to an earlier post on dragging and dropping. That is all worked out thanks to help from board members. For the sake of your own curiosity, this project will tile worksheet windows (actually specific ranges from other worksheets and other workbooks), borderless, within a single userform and allow dragging and dropping between ranges that reside in different workbooks. That is all worked out as well. The only roadblock I am running into right now is that I cannot edit directly in the cell when the worksheet is displayed in the userform. Probably has something to do with placing a worksheet in a userform to begin with.
CTRL-R to show the form or run maco, "ShowForm". If you double click a cell and attempt to go into edit mode, it will appear to be locked up. It's not, just hit enter to escape the cell. The problem is the userform is a child window of the application. Hence, focus can pass to the parent window or another child (the formula bar in particular) which is exactly the behaviour expected. How do I get around this?
How could I create a calendar?
I have the month displayed in cell A1.
Cells A2 - G2 display M T W T F S S
How could I have the cells below this display the correct date, on the correct day, depending on the month displayed in cell A1?
I've got a workbook for aesthetic reasons having text entered by users directly into protected autoshapes. I wanted to link text in one autoshape with another. If that was not enough I wanted to carry forward that text to another autoshape if a different autoshape did not contain text!
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have created a 2 drop down list with varios sizes of steel in 1 and quantity in another.
what i want to do is assign a figure in the steel list e.g 203x203x46 UC = £20 per metre and in the quantity list it will just have the quantity required then i will create a cell with the total, so it would go something like (203x203x46 UC = £20 per metre, quantity = 6, total = £120.
I need some vba code that will enable the users of my spreadsheet to populate a range of active cells with their Windows Username,time and date.
Quite simply I have approx 30 people accessing one spreadsheet and each person needs to update some info on the page.. So what I want is a time stamp so i know at what time they finished their updates and will also confirm their usernames...
I have a bunch of images which I want to be able to display in different cells depending on certain values or conditions. Say for example you have a drop down box with a list of fruits. When you pick a fruit, it displays its picture. Is this possible? If all of the pictures exist somewhere on the sheet, can you reference the pictures to have them appear in a cell rather than having images always "floating" over the sheet?

I am trying to find a way to write a Macro that will auto color multiple cells based on what data is displayed in one cell. The cell I want to reference is a vlookup cell.
Basically this is a part label. And depending what part is selected from the list my vlookup will display its position on a vehicle(i.e.. FR, FL, RR, RL, Etc..). So if vlookup comes back with FR I want the various cells on the label to be orange, etc..
ALSO: if there is a way to embed it so it does this automatically (rather than run the macro each time).
When I am in my workbook and I click on a cell in a worksheet I would like to be able to have the row highlight when I click a cell, instead of trying to manually find it which at times I get lost with all the data on these sheets. Now my workbook is completed and all my formulas are done. Just trying to fine tune my databases with being able to do the "click this cell and the row highlights where I need to be" If this is possible I would like to do this for all 3 databases.
View 14 Replies View Relatedthis have bothered me for a long time. I'm not a very good excel user, so it's probably a piece of cake for some here ^^; This table;
Student Test1 Test2 Test3
a 13
b 16
c 19
d 9
e 15
etc...
Later in the document I want to show WHO scored highest on each test in another table;
Best Student Points
Test1 19
Test2
Test3
The points are easy to figure out, even for me, just use the "MAX" function. But how do I make excel tell me "c" under "best student"? Ofcourse I want it to be a function so that it'll change when I set 20 on student a.

I have a workbook with 6 tabs/worksheets. Each of the first four is a different product or quarter. Tab 5 is a consolidated data report that links data from individual tabs 1-4 in rows and columns for comparison purposes. Consider Tabs/Worksheets 1-4 to be quarters (ie. 1Q, 2Q, 3Q, 4Q). What I want is for the Column Headers in Tab 5 (the consolidated data report) to be pulled from the NAME of the Tab/Worksheet it is pulling the data from. Not an individual cell, but the name of the worksheet itself so that others can change their worksheet labels and those changes are reflected in the consolidated report.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a cell, C2, that will have a tab name pasted into it each time a new page is created. This name will be equivalent to a filter in PivotTable1 on that page.
Is there a way that I can have it that when the name is pasted, the filter "Time" can be linked to that cell and update in the pivot table?
I go to last used row for column C and then go to next row column A and insert a check box and link that to same row in z column. The code which I am trying is not working.
lastcell is last used cell in column c. Say C8 (c8,c9 are merged). A to column H are merged.
[Code] .....
I dont know why i am unable to go to A10 with the above code.
and for check box i am try with macro recorder.
[Code] .....
Checkboxes are inserted with every new row. I am able to add row and merge the rows and I am struck at adding checkboxes.
Could you program an example where the object size (arrow) is linked to a cell value?
I have two cells on Sheet 1 - Cell A1 and Cell A2.
Cell A1 is the first cell that will receive either a number, or nothing. When it receives a number, the number will always contain five digits. (For example: '23456'.)
The contents of Cell A2 depend on the contents of Cell A1 - If Cell A1 contains a five digit number, then Cell A2 will display that same five-digit number with '-1' following it. (In our case: '23456-1'.) If Cell A1 contains no number, then Cell A2 will just be another ordinary cell allowing the user to enter whatever he/she desires.
The extension in Cell A2 should remain editable at all times - if the user wishes to change the '-1' to a '-2', for example, he/she should be able to do so without any error messages appearing. However, the user must not be able to change any of the first five digits in Cell A2 as long as Cell A1 contains data. A message should appear stating that changes to the first five digits should be performed in Cell A1 - which would then change Cell A2 accordingly.
Also, if the contents of Cell A1 are erased for any reason, Cell A2 should keep the five digit number, but lose whatever '-x' extension it contained.
Can this be done using Data Validation?
I am making a spreadsheet which would have the record of the audit that i am doing on my patients. Along with other details i want to give link of the routine followups of their disease picture in their specific spreadsheet cell. I have searched the internet about it where i have come to know about hyperlinking. However, my concern about hyperlinking is that i want the spreadsheet with pictures to be portable to other PCs which wouldn't be possible with hyperlinking. Also including the pictures in the spreadsheet would be very troublesome as the size would enormously increase once the data continues to grow.I want to include photos in column L, R, V, Z & AD.

Is there a way to make it dynamic by linking this to a cell on sheet1? Example if sheet1 A1 cell contains name of month, by changing that the results should also change?
One folder on the drive contains excel files, which are created daily from a template. I use these files, the 20 most recent days' worth, to create an analysis file. This new file is organized in rows, starting with the date. The files I am using are all saved in the form "Stats yyyy mm-dd.xls" The first line of each row of the analysis spreadsheet starts with the date, in the format "yyyy mm-dd". Is it possible to create a macro, or in another way, for the analysis spreadsheet to automate the reading-in of data from these different files?
