Choose Columns To View In A Large Spreadsheet
Oct 3, 2008
I have a large spreadsheet with over 50 columns. Many colleagues use the sheet and often use the format, hide, column function to hide columns they do not need but then the next user has to unhide them and re-hide others until they are left with the different columns they require.
Is there anyway of creating a menu which allows users to select from a list of all the columns those they wish to display, all the others therefore being hidden.

I have a large order spreadsheet with 3 date related columns. One for customer requested delivery date, one for factory quoted delivery date and one for actual delivery date.
I want to be able to set something up that if it gets near either the requested or quoted delivery date (by say a week), that the cell flags red so it's a visual reminder to check whether the order has been dispatched etc.

my spreadsheet attached, when you open it up you will see the tabs on the bottom, each of those tabs are departments.
This spreadsheet track all the jobs coming through my department, placed by other departments.
On the right hand side of each sheet are print numbers columns, and total hour columns.
at the end of a job I record how many hours the job took or how many dollars it cost. Then the job is close out and that line of information is sent to the archive page.
The archive page is where all the information is stored, print numbers hours and dollar amounts and so forth.
what I would like to do is, set up another sheet within the workbook that would sort all of the part numbers and associate them with hours or dollar cost.
I'd like to have it start the search when a new job is entered and I put the print number into a cell, in any of the department pages.

I've written a spreadsheet for others to use, protected it (except for cells where data input is required). Almost like an App for sales people to prepare quotes. I want it to appear fullscreen only with formula bars and headings permanently hidden so feels the experience for the User is similar to an App.

I have a very large spreadsheet that was exported from an ecommerce site with close to 1000 products. I have one column that I need to extract some text from. This column holds all of the html from the product description and is huge. I only need to extract the actual description of the product, but am having a very hard time figuring out how to do it. I've tried using the mid, left, and right function; but not all of the html is the same so it's not really working the way I need it to.
I have multiple tags throughout the html that I can use with the mid function, but there is more than one occurrence of them. So, how can I tell it to start at the 4th occurrence? I've spent countless hours searching, but I'm a complete novice when it comes to excel and I don't even know what to search for. I end up looking through sites that explain how to pull the Y out of XYZ, which is what I need, just on a much larger (and more complicated) scale.
It was suggested that I set up a macro that will find the 4th occurrence of the word, and then uses the mid function to pull the data out, but when I try to find the word, it says it doesn't exist even though I can see it right in front of me.

I need to be able to convert a large spreadsheet to pdf for sending to a commercial printer. The spreadsheet is a family tree and covers an area a1 to ca107. The printers normally do the conversion from an emailed copy of the .xls file but charge for this.
Printing will be done on a wide carriage printer so the pdf has to be one sheet not a large number of a4. I have a copy of Acrobat but cannot work out how to get the spreadsheet to save as one sheet.

I have created a sample spreadsheet (the real data is sensitive) but I am basically faced with a spreadsheet of many columns of which I would like to remove the 4th,5th, 8th,9th, 12th, 13th etc...
So every 3rd column starting from Column B, and also every 3rd starting from Column C, (every 3rd, and every 3rd + 1 starting from B?), it's obvious what I'm after from the spreadsheet I've provided.
Unfortunately manually isn't an option, this needs doing every week, and it goes all the way across to column HZ!

I have multiple large spreadsheets of questionnaire data. Responses are as %'s
What I would like to do is use conditional formatting to pick out the top 3 of each set of questions per column not including 0% (if it falls in the top 3). Using different shades of green in the cell background and a white font.
so.....
The spreadsheets are up to 3000 rows long and up to column BB wide. The sets of questions are of random length spaced by an empty row. So question 1 may have 11 parts to it, each taking up a row so 12 rows in total. Question 2 may have 5 parts taking up row each so 6 rows in total...............Question 80 may have 7 parts so 8 rows in total and on and on.
What I have been doing is working down the first column of responses and manually adding the conditional formatting. Then using the format painter to copy across the relevant rows and columns. For example if Question one was from c5:bb26 I would format c$5:c$26 with the top three then use format painter to drag across to bb5:bb26 ...

I'm have Excel 2010 and Windows XP. Each week I get 3 spreadsheets and each has data unique to it. Each spreadsheet has a week number column which is common to all three. I want to combine the three worksheets into one and make create several dynamic charts for management. How should I organize a large spreadsheet? In addition to my week number I have a host of other date fields. Some of the data I get is (1) vehicle VIN numbers (2) City/State/Country (3a) I break up the VIN to give me vehicle type (3b) year of assembly (3c) car type (3d) number of doors (4) mileage (5) complaint (7) defect code etc. etc. What are the do's and don't when setting up a large spreadsheet? I have data by week which goes back to 2006 and so my date fields go top-down. I inherited the three spreadsheets and would like everything under one roof, so to speak. One spreadsheet which I can make my charts.

I am creating a spread sheet with a large amount of data.
In column a I have a list of managers, in B I have a list of employees and C, I have a list of activities that have been recorded throughout the day.
What I want to do is create a list (on a new sheet) so in column A that would bring back all the managers. Then in column B, bring back the employee that is tied to the manager from column A and finally in column C, bring back the activity that is tied to the employee.
I know how I can do this by doing list validation with INDIRECT, but with the large amount of data that I have this would take forever in a day.
Is there an easier and quicker way to do this?

I have a large spreadsheet which contains multiple rows of rate data by employee. I have sorted by effective date with most recent date on the top to get the most recent rate of pay, however, is there a way or formula to be able to identify or extract the previous rate of pay after that? I have included a sample below. There are different #'s of rows of rate of pay based on how long someone has been in company, as well as different rates of pay and effective dates.
Employee #
Name
Rate of Pay
Eff Date

I have a large spreadsheet (1000-plus entries) that all have about 10 or 15 columns of information (product title, product number, etc).
I also made a form that I want to use as a master form, where all the titles will not change.
What I am wanting to do is, by going off the product number, when you click it, this pre-made master form will pop up, and all the information that was located on the large spreadsheet for this product number will be inserted where it is designated to be on the master form.
While I could probably do something like this through Access, we need to keep it on Excel, and in the same workbook so that it will automatically update things once I put a new number or input onto the large spreadsheet.

I work with Excel 2010 and have a very large spreadsheet with data that I need to manipulate in several different ways. I have been filtering and then cutting and pasting but this is very time consuming . Is there a way to extract specific data from the spreadsheet and transfer it to different worksheets? I don't really know how to use macros.

i have some large reports that i get each day and have to sort into date time order and only keep the newest occurance based on column 2
at the moment i have a vba that converts the list to space delimetd columns, then selects all sorts into date time order, then deletes dupliactes as of column 2 keeping the most recent,
is there a more efficient way just to keep the most recent occurance and removing the rest
example file. so the 2nd row would be what i am left with

I have inherited a series of Word reports containing links to charts in several Excel files. I can tell by the link in Word that one of the charts is named 'Chart 6'. Is there an easy way to locate which chart in the Excel file is 'Chart 6' (and on and on for all of the other charts linked in the Word doc)? There are upwards of 21 charts in each Excel file linked to each of the Word reports. I am using 2007 but the files are in 2003 format because of limitations of the program from which the data comes for the charts.

I have a very large spreadsheet that is a consolidation of approximately 105 separate of contacts lists. The new consolidated spreadsheet contains demographic data, and a column for the name of each of the 105 lists. Each contact in the consolidated list had an "X" placed in the column if they were a member of that particular list. Each contact can be in more than one list. This is not very useful for me.
Here's a visual representation of the current list along with what I need:
FName
LName
Address
Phone
City
List1
List2
List3
List4
List5
List6
[Code] .....
I would like to add a column to the spreadsheet and call it "Source"
And then have a macro or VB script to do the following:
1. As shown above, put the column name (ie "List2") in the "Source" column whenever there is an "X" in that row for the corresponding Column.
2. Because each contact can be in more than one list, I need to append the column names so that "Source" column contains all of the column names (Lists) that had an "X"
3. Once all of the list names have been added to the "Source" column, I will delete the list columns.

I have a Master List with 3 colums The first column labeled location has a pull down menu with about 20 different options. The middle column labeled issues is just for text entry. The third column labeled contractor is another pull down menu with 18 options on it. I also have 18 other sheets within the workbook that correspond to the third column pulldown menu.
Heres what I need.
I would like to be able to enter info from columns one and two and be able to choose an option from column three and the info from columns one and two go to the corresponding sheet.

I am trying to create an excel file for use in a mail merge into Word.
Currently A-Z go along the top view, while 1-100 go along the left side. My understanding is that row (1) will hold all of the mail merge codes (ie, CUSTOMERADDRESS) and that each row below row (1) will be where I type in the data.
if I could enter the data going top to bottom instead of left to right in the sheet. To do that I need to change the view so that (1) A-Z is going along the left column instead of the top row.

I have a large spreadsheet which I need to split into individual workbooks by reference to a particular column.
Rather then doing this manually and splitting the data out one at a time - I would like a macro to do this for me.
I am a novice excel user.

When I select multiple cells horizontally at the top are highlighted columns for those cells.
I would need to know the number of those columns (es. 5), "on the fly", without having to rely on eye every time. This number maybe displayed in a status bar or other window...

I have a large spreadsheet converted from pdf whose data still appears in A4 reading format.
I need to move part columns of data from 6 columns to form 1 large column in column A.
For example, move range B8 to B76 beneath range A8 to A76 and range C8 to C76 beneath that etc, page by page working through all 270 pages !
Also need to delete unnecessary 'page headers' throughout as in rows 2-6

I have a list of domains (about 200,000) that looks like this:
I have a list of urls (about 1 million) that looks like this:
I want my results to only show this (since this is the only thing in the second file that does not contain anything from the first file):
I have tried programs designed to do this but they either (a) shorten everything down to the domain or (b) wont remove anything since the domains are part of a longer url in the second file.

I'm in need of a formula that can give me the sum of cells in a column if the values in another column are the same. For example:
Col A
John Smith
John Smith
John Smith
Jane Doe
Jane Doe
Jane Doe
Col B
2
8
9
3
4
6
Col E
Monday
Tuesday
Sunday
Monday
Wednesday
Friday
The total for John Smith would be 19 and the total for Jane Doe would be 13. The problem is that this file is huge and we will have to use this formula on a weekly basis with different values each week, so it would be very difficult to use a "specific" formula for each person. Is this a possibility?
And to make it more difficult, I would then have to subtract one of those values if that row has a certain value in one of the other columns.
If values in Column A are equal to each other, sum of Column B. (Column C would contain the sum in this case.)
Column D = Column C minus B, if value of Column E is Sunday, otherwise don't subtract anything.
The total for John Smith in Column D would be 10 and Jane's total for D would still be 13.

In column A I have a list of product names..(e.g....ABCD, JKLM....)...this is the "master product list" -- 1000 rows of products.
In columns C:G, I have additional product names, each column represents products sold by state. (each column lists between 100-250 products).
I want to do a VLOOKUP and I wanted to know what products that are in
A1:A1000, that is NOT listed in C:G?
My experience with VLOOKUP is limited...but I do know that I can only look in 1 column at a time.
How can I write it to look at the ENTIRE range? I suppose I can copy all the all the products to 1 column...?
