Changing Text In A Cell
Jul 31, 2014
I'm trying to create a code that will convert a column into another pressure unit. And then go back and forth as a button is pushed. I have been having trouble getting the units to switch from one to the other and I think it's because I can't get the line to re-write a cell correct.
Sub Macro5()
If InStr(1, ActiveSheet.Range("M4").Value, "psi") > 0 Then
Dim rngData As Range
Set rngData = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Data").Range("M6:M10000")
rngData = Evaluate(rngData.Address & "*14.22334")
Worksheets("Data").Range("M4") = "psi"
[Code] ....

If i have a range say E12:O12 and want to find the last cell before blank, lets say it finds m12 as the cell with the value before blank. then with m12 it needs to determine weather row 11 in the same column has Text either "S" or "F" if "S" then m12 = t if "F" then m12 offset(1,-1) = t. And just to make things more difficult i need the range E12:O12 to step 2 as well until it gets to E208:O208 .Noting that row 11 never changes and will always have either an "S" Or an "F"
and also t = time()

I set up a range of cells to show a form when they are double clicked. This form gives the user the choice to pick a color and text from a list. When the user clicks "OK" the form closes and changes the cell based on the user's input (i.e. Red, "N/A"). I want only the double cliked cell to change color and text.
Problem: My code runs fine, but I cannot find a way to let the form change the text of the cell. Only the color is changing. I have tried calling the cell out in the code, but I get an error. I cannot find a way to change the text in the cell.
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Dim ColorChosen As String
Dim WordChosen As String[code].....

I have created a gradebook template so that I can keep track of my assignments as I get them and keep on top of my grades. Any way that I can code excel to work so that if my current average in the class ever drops below 70%, I want the color of the text to change to red to alert me that the grade is too low and needs to come up. I'm new to using VBA in excel and not sure how to do it or what to code.

I wish for a text box (drawn Text Box, from the "Shapes" tab) to conditionally change its background color based on whether a cell in a different sheet says "Online" - in which case it should be green, or "Offline" - in which case it should be red. So far, the code that I have that doesnt work at all, which I'm not even sure where to place (I tried in the Workbook - Open?), is the following:
[Code] .....
I also need to do this for a total of 9 Text Boxes, if that changes anything.

I have a worksheet with 3 particular columns (L,M,N) that have drop down menus. The menu is populated with items that are referenced on a different workbook (different file). Because there are multiple worksheets accessing the referenced list, this is a master. When I change the master, the lists update, but the cell text does not. Example:
If I chose apple from the list, but later in the master I decide I want apple to be banana, while the drop dowm box will now have banana instead of apple, my cell still says apple.
I don't necessarily want apple to change to banana, but I want a visual cue that this is incorrect. I wanted the cell text to change to red if it is not equal to any of the list items on the master file. I want this to be passive, i.e., I want it to change automatically, so I don't have to press a button or some other activation.

I have a list of pricing and I want to be able to change the text of cell, say "D1", which says "Standard" to say "Premium" and all the formulas would change in accordance. The "Standard" pricing would be, Starting D2, "=C2*.3" and I want them all to go to "Premium" pricing which would be formula "=C2*.35".
What would be the best method of creating this function or formula?

I have a large workbook, with multiple sheets. I would like to be able to select a name from a drop down menu, and have the cell color change for all entries of that name in my other sheets. I can do it manually, but it would be much cleaner and easier to have Excel do it for me. I have looked at other answers here on this forum and know that if it can be done,

I have a spreadsheet that will contain about 5-15 rows with a letter "S" in the column. If this letter S appears in the column, I need its entire row to change font color to RED and then change that row's value in column L to a negative number. is there any easy way to do this?

I have a spreadsheet that uses VB macros to calculate sums of cells based on the font color of the numbers inside. It used to be fairly easy going through each cell and "classifying" them by color, so that my macros can go ahead and sum the numbers in each respective color's cell... but now I have a huge amount of numbers and would like to automate the process somewhat. Here's an example using the A and B columns:
flight $400
hotel $150
hotel $130
meal $20
meal $15
flight $350
I tried using conditional formatting to automatically change the color of the adjacent cells based on the presence of a keyword such as "flight" or "hotel", but this change is only cosmetic, and doesn't actually change the font color (it is still the default black, hence why my color-summing macros won't work!).
I'm including a sample macro for what I use to color-sum my cells, but what I am looking to automate the color-coding process based on looking for keywords as explained above in my example. Here is one of the working color-summing macros (for red, in this case) if you'd like to use it as a reference:
Function SumRed(SelectedCells As Range)
' Adds the values of the cells where the font colour is red(3).
Dim Cell As Object
Dim x As Double
[Code] ...........

This may have been answered on here but can not seem to find it. My situation is I have values in A1,A2 & A3 that are like counter reading so the value is always changing. What I am looking to do is change the cell color if one of the values is over 500 from the other two values. Say A1 is 3000, A2 is 3250 and A3 is 3500. I would like the cell for A3 to change color.

I have an userform with 10 txtBoxes that I want to have the color changed based off another textbox Values (they will side by side, so when the user enter a value, it will know either it's excelent, good, average or bad based on the colors green, blue, yellow and red).
Is there a way to do so? Because all I have managed to do is to change one txtBox color per time, based on the value entered on the same text box (i.e. if I change the text box which should be changed, nothing changes).

I was wondering if there is a formula to change cell C2 to "Red" (One uppdercase, the rest lowercase) or if this was only possible through macro?
Also, would there be a way to combine B2 & C2? I apologize, but that was the only logical way I could think of to get the output in C2.

i have a spreadsheet that has 3 shifts. its a weekly data sheet. i have 52 sheets for every week of the year. so far i have a "data" sheet aswell. this is the first sheet. I use this data sheet to generate the information or the other 52 sheets. example is you enter the date of the first monday of the year and it generates the dates on all of my sheets for the whole year. i would like to do something similar for the shifts. i would like to have a cell the enter the shift of the first supervisor on that first monday and have all the shifts generate. 1=nights,2=days,3=afternoons. but i do not want the number to appear i would like the word. the set up goes like this:
DATA E9 = the first number for shift to generate all other numbers
A5 = cell to display first shift
A22= cell for the next shift
A39= cell for last shift
on sheet1 i have A5 as =sum(DATA!E9)
i would like A22 to be the shift after example if A5 as 2 for days than A22 would be 3 for afternoons and A39 would be 1 for nights.
preferably displayed as DAYS/AFTERNOONS/NIGHTS

Currently we do a lot of report crunching using Crystal Reports. We will then dump the data into an Excel sheet to run varying pivot tables or databases off of.
Often we will have a field that the formatting will not match up to anything in Excel. You can change the cell to Text, General etc. The main problem associated with this is running VLOOKUPs. The item we type in will not match up to the data imported from Crystal. We have to F2, the new data before it will match up which is a pain considering there can be anywhere from 30-1000 rows.
I'm trying to solve this problem in 2 ways. First can anyone tell me an easier way to do handle this?
Second, after trying many other things I thought about a macro that would automate the F2 process.

I copied a series of email addresses that I would like to convert into text. The email addresses, when hovered over, have a mail to: in the address. If I remove the hyperlink, all I get is the person's name but not the actual email address. How can I get just the email address?

I'm looking to perform a Find and Replace over all text boxes on all sheets.
I found this vba over at excel ribbon.tips which does the trick, but only works on the active sheet... I'm looking for it to work over all sheets. I'd also like it to look for 2 different instances.. For example, Find A replace B, and Find C replace with D.

I have a value list box in C1 with 4 values "Yes", "No" , "Pen" & "Con"
If a user selects Yes in C1 for example I need J1 & K1 to populate with Yes (or No if they selected No from C1)
but if they have selected or later change the value in C1 to Pen or Con for J1 & K1 to remain empty.

the summary sheet only keeps two months of data and i use the below code to
to find out where the cutoff month is.
but of course now that it is january it results in an error because we are subtracting 1-2.
i was going to set up a Select statement to check if the month is 1 or 2 and deal with it that way.
strOldMonth = MonthName(Month(Selection) - 2)

I have Workbook1 that I need to update from another Workbook2 in a different location on the network. Workbook2 is read only. Workbook2 is generated automatically with a name like "product 06-14.xls". Now my problem is that, since it get created automatically, the next day it will create a new workbook with a new name "product 06-15.xls" leaving the old file in the same directory for future reference.
I need to update a cell with the new current date up to the completion of the month plus the beginning of the next month to make it a complete month, so a completed month will be from 05-01-2006 to 06-1-2006 because the last day of the month doesn't get recorded until next day. What I have problems with is the looping to go to the next day until the beginning of the next. Then stop and start again on a new cell inputting the new month.
April-06 ---- 5,907
May-06 ----- 4,954
June-06 ------ 524

I've attached a spreadsheet. I want the order of the sentence to change based on the numbers and whether they are positive or negative. Below are more details and the spreadsheet has numbers.
"Total expense for September was 8 higher (lower) than prior year, driven by a higher (lower) claims expense and admin expense"
This might be hard to explain: For the second part (starting from "driven by", I would like the variable that explains more of the positive or negative variance (in the example, claims) to come first.
Here is a different example
Total expense for September was 6 lower than prior year, driven by a lower admin expense (claims is not included because it is higher)

So I'm just a lowly intern who has been given the task of changing date formats in a bunch of spreadsheets. The string is as follows:
1015 Dixon Schwabl Est. for Creative Svcs 101207.pdf
I have to change the date at the end (mmddyy) so it reads as yyyymmdd. There is a long column of these strings, and i have to do it on over 300 spreadsheeys.
