Cell With Formula Won't Expand To Fit Text

Mar 31, 2009

I have a cell set up with a formula to copy the content from another cell. However, the cell won't expand to fit the text. If you delete the formula and just type in the cell, it does expand. See attachment.

Expand A Cell Formula Based On The Entry Of Several Other Cell Entries

Jul 6, 2014

=IF(E14<=0,0,IF(N9="yes",MAX(E15*C15,30),30))

I am currently using the above formula and need to make an addition to it.

If D8 is greater than 9000 and less than 9999 then the entry will be 35 rather than 30. Any other entry in D8 would leave it at 30

Auto Expand Row When Typing Lenthy Text

Nov 13, 2008

I am trying to have a form that people can fill in and I know it would be far better to use Word for this purpose but it looks so much better in Excel format. The problem is I have merged about 10 cells in a row and copied this format down a few rows.

Now although I have set the 'Text Wrap' option the rows will not auto expand unti to accodate all the text unless I do a ALT-ENTER combo. The problem is anyone using this spreadsheet to complete the form may not know how to use this feature.

Is there anyway Excel can expand automatically or do I need some sort of Macro based in the Worksheet that will automatically adjust the row if the text is too long to fit?

Expand On Existing Sumproduct Formula

Feb 26, 2014

Still finding the SUMPRODUCT function a bit challenging to fully grasp.

This formula works great to sum the miles (Q16:Q38) the team (A16:A38) drove in a particular month (B16:B38)

=SUMPRODUCT(--ISNUMBER(MATCH(A16:A38,INDIRECT(E3),0)),--(MONTH(B16:B38)=E7),Q16:Q38)

How would I expand it to check yet another column say (S16:S38) for the term " Charge Call" ?

So I can see the miles the team drove in March for all the charge calls.

Where can I go to study and learn more about SUMPRODUCT. Seems like just what I need to build interactive type dashboard reports.

Need to expand the crteria on this array?

{=SUM(IF(LYIND1=1,IF(PROFILE!$G$405:$G$435="EOM",(PROFILE!$AU$405:$AU$435),SUM(IF(LYIND1=2,IF(PROFILE!$G$406:$G$436="EOM",(PROFILE!$AU$406:$AU$436)))))))-SUM($K$16:N16)}

I need to add

{=SUM(IF(LYIND2=1,IF(PROFILE!$G$406:$G$436="EOM",(PROFILE!$AU$406:$AU$436),SUM(IF(LYIND2=2,IF(PROFILE!$G$407:$G$437="EOM",(PROFILE!$AU$407:$AU$437)))))))-SUM($K$16:N16)}

Formula To Expand Headings To Table Columns

Jan 25, 2014

The attached workbook has a fragment of a table . The column heads are letters representing job nos. The first row is of numbers which will always be multiples of 1000. Subsequent rows are the factors of each number by each number.

My problem is how to structure the columns of the second table so that if a number has a factor of 1 there is one copy of that column head. if the number has a factor of 2 then there are 2 copies of the head, and so on.

The table can vary in size but the first row of each column will always be an integral number of 1000's (e.g. never 1250).

I have not been able to attach the workbook as "ADDFILES" is not visible in the download screen, I hope the above description will be enough.

Formula To Automatically Expand Each Week As New Data Comes In

May 17, 2007

I believe it should be quite a simple thing...and probably has something to do with the OFFSET function...but I cannot seem to put my fingers to it.

All details are mentioned in the attached ZIP file...so I won't repeat myself here.

Excel 2010 :: Expand Text Number Range Into Separate Cells

Feb 20, 2014

Using Excel 2010.

I have data in excel which looks like this:

Column 1 has 1200-1209,1300-1350,1523-1563
Column 2 has 1400-1409,1600-1650,1823-1863

I would like to take the range of e.g. 1200-1209 and have excel put 1200 1201 1202 1203 1204 1205 1206 1207 1208 1209 into separate adjacent cells for me. And be able to do this for each column/cell of data I have like this.

Column 1 1200
Column 2 1201
Column 3 1202

Like that only. Is it possible?How?

I would like to know if there is a way to expand the selection of cells from the current cell you are on to the very bottom cell available in the spreadsheet.

For example, I want to apply a formula from A12 - the very last A cell row in the spreadsheet.

How To Expand Beyond Row 1000 Without Correcting Each Cell

Mar 4, 2012

I have about 300 cells filled with different formula's like the ones written below.

=SUMPRODUCT(--('Book 1'!$B$1:$B$1000="H"),--('Book 1'!$C$1:$C$1000=D21),('Book 1'!$W$1:$W$1000))

=SUMPRODUCT(--('Book 1'!$B$1:$B$1000="H"),--('Book 1'!$D$1:$D$1000=I21),('Book 1'!$S$1:$S$1000))

Spreadsheet works great, but I've realized that I should have expanded beyond the 1st 1000 cells (example: $1000). One book 1, my data entry will extend beyond row 1000.

Is there a way I can replace all $1000's on the spreadsheet with say $3000 without having to correct each of the 300 cells separately?

Expand Active Cell To A Given Range

Aug 20, 2006

When i click commandbutton1:

Copy Active cell (columnB), next cell (ColumnC), next cell (ColumnI), next cell (ColumnO) all of which exist in the same row.

I will then paste the values into another sheet in the next available row which i think i have mastered. the cells will be pasted next to each other i.e. instead of column B,C,I,O they will be pasted as column A,B,C,D.

My dilema is i am not sure if you can use multiple cell offsets to perform this or if it is better to use a loop.

Expand Active Cell To New Range

Dec 27, 2006

I have some working code that makes a number of changes to an excel report using VBA. Each time I execute the code I am taken to a different point in the excel report (depending on user inputs). What I now need to do is to change the cell selection from a single cell to three cells.

For example, my code may result in cell B100 being the active cell. What I now want to do is change the selection from B100 to the range B100:B103. I would have thought I could write something simple like:

Sheets("Group").Range("ActiveCell:Offset(0, 2)").Select

I have tried every variation of the above but I can't seem to make it run. Where am I going wrong?

Expand Named Range Based On Cell Value

Jun 13, 2008

I have a workbook containing two worksheets - Sheet 1 being my "data entry sheet" and Sheet 2 is a sort of summary report containing multiple named ranges (all grouped according to similar values in a cell i.e. all cells containing 1-1 is named GRP1, all cells containig 1-2 is named GRP2). Basically, my workbook looks like this:

Sheet 1
A B C D
1 Lea Female 1-1 Lea Wells
2 Leo Male 1-2 Leo Anderson

Sheet 2
A B C D
1 Anne Thomas Female 1-1
2 John Doe Male 1-1

4 Jimmy Beads Male 1-2
5 Mary Fox Female 1-2

Hence, when I enter the data as shown in Sheet 1, Sheet 2 should look like this:

A B C D
1 Anne Thomas Female 1-1
2 John Doe Male 1-1
3 Lea Wells Female 1-1

4 Jimmy Beads Male 1-2
5 Mary Fox Female 1-2
6 Leo Anderson Male 1-2

Automatically Expand Row Depth To Show Cell Content

Jan 3, 2006

I have a spreadsheet with a master front page, which basically copies the contents of other cells in other sheets for it's own content. ie:-

the formula in cell E16 on the master sheet is ='Sheet 7'!$B$16 (Please note that cell B16 is actually a merged range of B16 to H16)

Everything works fine until such time as the orginal cell contains an amount of text which is deeper than the cell on the master page eg cell B16 on sheet 7 is 330 pixels deep while the cell E16 in the master sheet is only 16 pixels deep.

What I would like to happen is for row 16 in the master sheet to expand in depth by whatever is requried to automatically show the full content of B16 on sheet 7.

Expand Cell Width - Compile Error Procedure Too Large

Aug 8, 2012

The following code expands a cell width to size 42 when it is clicked on, then minimises it to size 9.29 when clicked elsewhere. Just what I need.

For instance, this would work for column 4.

VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Columns(4).ColumnWidth = IIf(Target.Column = 4, 42, 9.29)
End Sub

However, I need this to cover the first 1000 columns. More if possible. I can easily copy this 1000 times, changing the column number to then look like this (First 10 shown for example)

VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Columns(4).ColumnWidth = IIf(Target.Column = 4, 42, 9.29)
Columns(5).ColumnWidth = IIf(Target.Column = 5, 42, 9.29)
Columns(6).ColumnWidth = IIf(Target.Column = 6, 42, 9.29)

[Code] .....

The problem is if I do this 1000 times i get a Compile error that the procedure is too large. Is it possible to make the code more compact to basically cover all columns from 4 onward?

VBA To Read Text Formula And Related Constants And Insert As Formula Into Cell

Jul 30, 2014

I have a situation where I have to curve fit data, this can lead to different formulas being used with varying constants.

Is it possible to pickup a TEXT based formula and related constants from other cells, and then place this into another cell as a functioning formula. For Example

Cell A1 contains the formula as a text string whether it be y=a+bx+cx^2, or y=a+b/x, etc
Cells A2:A6 contain the individual constants, a, b, c, etc

I would then want the VBA to read the text based formula and put it into an output cell as a functioning excel formulae.g

In cell B10: =a+b*A10+c*A10^2

I understand picking the constants up and putting the formula should not be too much of an issue, however trying to insert the variable form of the curve fit is the part that I am struggling with, and am unsure if possible.

Copy A Formula In A Cell And Then Paste Only The Text Of The Formula

Jul 16, 2007

I would like to copy a formula in a cell and then paste only the text of the formula, but I can't figure it out. Basically, I would like to avoid going into the cells and absolute referencing or hitting F2, then copying the text.

When I hit "Ctrl C" to copy the cell, then hit "Alt/E/S/F/Enter" to paste the formula, it is just like a regular copy/paste formula-wise in that the references move.

Use Dynamic Formula Driven Text From Cell To Identify And Extract From Specific Cell?

Dec 21, 2013

I paste new data into a sheet of a monthly report I prepare. For this sheet, the # of data rows change (and is unpredictable) every month. I need the value inside a specific cell that dynamcially moves up and down based on the # of rows for that month (because it's below the rows of data).

So I made a formula to identify the exact cell # every month.

Example:

This month the exact cell is F255 in the "Refi" sheet.

So my formula in the "Summary" sheet cell A1 first finds the cell row # only (255) and since it's always column F, in B1 I have

VB:
="F" & (A1)

This outputs "F255" in B1, successfully identifying the target cell.

Now how do I write a formula in C1 to grab the value from whatever cell is named in B1. (For this month, the value in cell F255 from the "Refi" sheet)

Use Text In A Cell For A Formula As Cell Reference To Create Range

Mar 10, 2013

I have a list of headings and items and I have a set of formulas that work out depending on the heading what items are listed.

Say theres 10 items and the heading starts at C4 and that heading has 10 items, so it puts "C5" as text in G1 and "C15" as text in G2 so i now know my cell range of items

How can i use the text in those cells to put in a formula to call that as a range?

If I use the indirect formula it shows me the value of the cell, but im after using it to reference the cell

VBA - Find Cell Containing Text And Use An Offset Cell Value In Formula

Feb 13, 2014

I'm trying to do a column of individual discount calculations using a discount percentage found in a cell two to the right of a cell containing the text "Total SP:" that is always upwards and to the left of the cell where the formula goes (but could be two rows or could be 20). There are multiple "Total SP:" cells in the sheet - I always want the first one upwards. I have created the following but I get #NAME? where I hope to see the discounted value.

VB:

Dim Discount1 As Double
Discount = Cells.Find(What:="Total SP:", After:=ActiveCell, LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, MatchCase:=True).Offset(0, 2)
Range("R9:R" & LastRow).Formula = "=IF(J9>0,$E9*(1-Discount1),0)"

I've just thought, the Cells.Find needs to be redone for each cell where the formula is inserted to ensure it always catches the correct discount and this isn't going to do that - it's going to find it once and always use that single value.

I think this needs a Loop or something and to move the ActiveCell down one after the formula to get it to redo the Cells.Find.

Text In Cell Then Formula To Put Particular Number In Adjacent Cell

Feb 16, 2014

I have text in column A of either "xxx" or "yyy"

I'm looking for a formula so that If

A1: "xxx" then B1: $100
Or if
A1: "yyy" then B1: $150

So when I write "xxx" or "yyy" in a cell of Col A

then $100 or $150 shows up in adjacent cell in Col B automatically.

I will need to sum the numbers later so Col B will need to be in number/accounting format.

Convert Cell Reference Text To Cell Formula

Aug 18, 2009

I am wanting to convert a cell reference text
"=$A$1"
to an actual cell reference
=$A$1

Manually I can go through each cell and click F2 + Enter and Excel automatically changes it.

I have tried recording a macro whereby I click through each cell with F2 + Enter but the VBA writes the actual formula "=$A$1" rather than the process. This does not work as the cell reference is variable.

I'm NOT wanting an external cell to convert it for me
i.e. INDIRECT(CELL)
because I am wanting to copy the answer to another independent spreadsheet

I'm NOT wanting to paste values
i.e. return the answer from cell $A$1
because I want the cell reference to remain within the cell.

Using Text From A Cell In Formula

Aug 28, 2012

For reference, I am making a spreadsheet for keeping track of college football statistics, team records, etc.

Each spreadsheet is named for a team (e.g. "Michigan", "Ohio St.") and lists that team's schedule. As part of my statistics, I am trying to compile the win-loss record of each team that team has played.

Generically, my spreadsheet looks like this:

Opp.'s W-L record
Game 1
Game 2
Game 3
Michigan
Ohio St.
Nebraska

In order to compile the W-L record, I would normally have to have a formula as in =SpreadsheetMichigan.J4 + SpreadsheetOhioSt.J4 + SpreadsheetNebraska.J4

This is quite a lengthy process as this formula is different for every team. I would like one generic formula to put on every team's page that would grab the text of each team's opponent for game 1, game 2, etc.

Basically, is there a formula that I can put within the formula to say

=Spreadsheet[ReturnTextFromA4].J4 + Spreadsheet[ReturnTextFromB4].J4 + Spreadsheet[ReturnTextFromC4].J4

Formula To Get The Cell With The Text

May 2, 2009

I need an excel formula to find the part of the text in the range of cells and display the values.

Eg: cell's A1 :A25 has text in it, And B1 :B25 has values in it.
I need to find "ABC" from A1:A25 ,IT could be either "ARRA ABC" or
"NON ARRA ABC" but not just and display the values for this frm B1:B25 in C1.
examples for A1:A25 is
A1 ARRA ABC
A2 Non ARRA DEF
A3 ABC
A4 Non ARRA GHI
A5 DEF
A6 ARRA JKL

I used the following formula,It seems to be working but only to that cell if i try to put the same formula in another sheet or another cell ,I don't see the values.

My Formula is as follows.
=IF((OR(A1:A25="ARRA ABC",A1:A25="NoN ARRA ABC")),B1:B25,0)
