if it is possible to concatenate multiple cells that have different font formats? For example; cell A1 is font formatted SYMBOL and contains the letter "D", cell B1 is font formatted ARIEL and contains the word "delta". What I am trying to do is concatenate the two cells while maintaining their font formats.

1) Numerous cells in columns A and B on a w/s have a combination of two fonts each.
For example, cell A1 shows # 15 on the Formula Bar. The # sign is in "Wingdings 3" Font and 15 is in "Arial".
Cell A1 correctly displays |15 (i.e.; up arrow,space,15).
2) Other cells on the w/s reference those cells.
For example, cell C1:: =IF($J$5="Vortex",A1,B1)
When the above condition is true: Is there a way to return | 15 (i.e.; up arrow,space,15) in C1 , exactly as displayed in A1 ??
I'm looking to set up a spreadsheet whereby individuals answer questions and have to format their answer using a particular font, colour, font size and so on. The idea is that I can then compare their answer sheet to a pre completed one using an =IF function and get a total score. The only problem is =if and =exact only lookup cell text/numbers and don't look at how the text is formatted within them.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an excel spreadsheet that should have one record for each artifact in a museum collection. The problem is that the museum has consolidated this information from several different sources into one spreadsheet and now there are many duplicate records. They want all the duplicate records removed so that there is just one record for each artifact, BUT there may be different pieces of information in each of the duplicate records. So I want to do the following:
- sort records based on Accession Number (column A)
- find duplicate Accession Number records
- determine which fields (columns) within a duplicate record are unique and concatenate those entries into one master record for each Accession Number
- delete the duplicate Accession Number records
In the attached sample sheet, for Accession Number 66-1-100, we have 6 duplicate records. In the columns, we have information which in some of the records is duplicated, in some it is unique and in some it is missing completely. The museum wants just one master record for each Accession Number and they want all the data from the duplicate records concatenated into one and all the duplicates and blanks discarded.

I have 1 work book with 2 work sheets. I need the data from 1 cell on the first sheet to be merged with a cell on the second sheet, ( I could also do with this having a line being inserted) can this be done in the same cell or does the merge command only work into a new cell?

I am trying to create a destination cell by concatenating several cells and text together. A1 = Folder Name, B1 = File Name, C1 = Tab and Cell. In D1, I am creating a formula that concatenates all the cells to create a destination. This obviously doesn't work so I run a macro to copy, paste special values which displays this in E1, ='FolderName[File Name]Tab'!Cell. The pasted formula works but only after you click on the cell and hit the enter key. Is there a better way to do this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm using excel 2008 for mac. I've got a spreadsheet with around 4000 rows. The data is organized like this:
|___________URL_________|______EMAIL______|
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
What I'm trying to do is concatenate all of the URLs into one cell so that each email address has only 1 single row with many URLs associated with it. I tried using VLOOKUP(B1, $A$1:$B$4000, 1, FALSE) but this didn't work. I thought it was a long shot anyway. I also tried writing a bash script do parse a csv with this data and create a csv file with the URLs concatenated with no luck. I'm trying to get my data to look like this:
|___________URL_________|______EMAIL______|
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
|Example Domain
Where these are 2 adjacent cells.
EDIT: The format didn't turn out like I'd hoped. In the first example, each URL has an associated email address, each in its own row. In the second, it is just one row, with multiple urls in the first cell and an email address in the second cell.
I have a cell with some text in it that has formatting applied (bold in this case). I want to append some text on the end using VBA, but preserve the existing font formatting information. So say I have "one bold one" in my cell, I'm executing the following: ActiveCell.Value = ActiveCell.Value & "two"
But this wipes out the bold information. Is there any way of preserving the bold that's already in the cell. Either perhaps by copying the Characters object and reapplying it, or by some other method?
Excel 2003. I have created an Excel purchase order form that has several drop-down lists that work just fine. However, I have yet to figure out how to change the font size and be able to use such things as BOLD, etc...even when I format the source data list. I can format everything else in the form...except how the drop-down list data is displayed.

Its Working.
I have a listbox that lists some items from a spreadsheet, but what I cannot figure out is how to have the font color of the items be RED if the value if negative, and default BLACK when positive...
how to alter the code to accommodate this?

With UserForm1.ListBox4
.ColumnCount = 5
.ColumnWidths = "2 cm;3 cm;3 cm; 3 cm; 3 cm" [code].....
I am currently creating a dashboard for my business unit.
I have text boxes in the "Dashboard" worksheet linked to cells in the "Data" worksheet.
I would like the text boxes font color to automatically update based on updates I make to the "Data" worksheet.
Example: 100% of target, font changes to Green. 75% of target, font changes to Yellow. 50% of target, font changes to Red.
I have backwards co-workers that can't figure out how/why to use conditional formatting and have deigned it "not acceptable".
They've requested I fill in a HUGE spreadsheet and change the font color to red if it meets a criteria.
Simple enough to do with a conditional format that compares my data.
HOWEVER, now I need the individual cells to stay red and remove the conditional format (because conditional formatting "confuses" them). Removing the condition causes the color to go back to black. I've tried all sorts of paste specials (formula/format) to no avail...
I am preparing a model for a client that runs excel 2003. I need to change the format of a range based on the value in a cell (reference cell) that is outside the range to be reformatted.
Reference cell is a named cell with the value calculated with a Match() function, the only possible values are (1, 2, 3).
I need the VBA code to retrieve the reference cell value and apply one of three formats to the range. I believe the code for that part is something like:
Private Sub Format_Font()
Set vrange = Range("d63:r63")
Set refrange = Names("ind_agentfee").RefersTo
Set refrange = Mid(refrange, 2)
On Error Resume Next
If refrange = 1 Then
With vrange.Font
.Style = "Comma"
.NumberFormat = "_(* #,##0.0_);_(* (#,##0.0);_(* ""-""??_);_(@_)"
Else
If refrange = 2 Then
With vrange.Font
.Style = "Comma"
.NumberFormat = "_(* #,##0_);_(* (#,##0);_(* ""-""??_);_(@_)"
Else
.Style = "Percent"
End If
End Sub
I am having problems getting the proper opening statements and declarations correct and also get an "Else without Then" error with all combination's that I am attempting. I am sure that the code is mess now as I started with a recorded macro then modified it multiple times while researching the web.
I have a cell with the number: 4902.21 and i need to format it so that it shows, 4,902. Easily said then done! I right clicked, format cell, Number to 2 decimal places and ticked the box for a comma. The problem I am having is that in order for that to work, I have to press enter on the cell which then changes the cell to the desired text.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat I am attempting to do is have my spreadsheet automatically detect and highlight personnel working seven days in a row. There are 63 total columns, the first one being for the person's name. The next 31 columns are a full month's dates in which their day shifts are recorded, while the final 31 are the full month's dates for night shifts worked. Days worked are listed as a "1" in the cell beneath the respective shift's date, while days off go down as "3". Currently I am using conditional formatting with the following formula, which highlights cells in red:
=ISNUMBER(FIND("1111111",(H7&I7&J7&K7&L7&M7&N7&O7&P7&Q7&R7&S7&T7&U7&V7&W7&X7&Y7&Z7&AA7&AB7&AC7&AD7&AE7&AF7&AG7&AH7&AI7&AJ7&AK7&AL7)))
I created the conditional formatting formula to apply to the row for the first person listed, and then copied and pasted the formatting only for the rest of the personnel rows. The issue I'm having is that while it will highlight the seventh work days, it will often highlights all cells prior to the grouping which has seven straight days of work. It also tends to highlight single or multiple cells in red which do not fit the pattern, and whose rows may not even have seven straight days of work.
how I can get this:
John Smith
1 Aisleby Avenue
Nottingham
Notts
NO1 1ON
i.e. each line in it's own cell
to look like this:
John Smith
1 Aisleby Avenue
Nottingham
Notts
NO1 1ON

I am wanting to use Excel to perform a web query into an online database our company uses. One of the columns I am wanting to import contains numbers that are 20 digits long & they begin with 4 zero's. The problem is that when Excel imports the query, if I fprmat the cells & preserve the formatting, it cuts off the first 4 zero's & replaces the last number with a zero. Basically, it looks as if it is only importing 15 numbers. Is there a way around this ; is there a way to force Excel to import all 20 numbers?

A1:A6 have numeric values 1 to 6.
I want the conditional format values to change Based on the value in Cell B2.
If the value in B2 is "old", then I want these conditional format conditions for A1:A6. Numbers between 1-2=green text, 3-4=orange text and 5-6=red text.
IF the value in B2 is "new" then I want the conditional format conditions in A1:A6 to change so 1=black text, 2-3=green text, 4-5=orange text and 6=red text.
I know how to do multiple conditional formats but i have no clue how to change multiple conditions based on another cells value.
I'm a 2007 user. I am trying to conditional format a range of F1:J10, where F1 will be conditionally formatted relationally to A1. G1 is relational to B1. H2 relational to C2, etc., all the way down to J10 relational to E10. My conditional format formula in cell F1 is >A1*2 (will format F1 as orange). I want to be able to copy the conditional formatting over so the formula in J10 for example would be: >E10*2 (will format it orange).
I omit the "$" in the conditional format formula in an attempt to prevent it from being absolute. But every time I copy the conditional formatting over to the other cells, the formula within those cells remains identical to the formula in the original cell.
What I am looking to do is;
If cell A2 = "Closed"
then I want cells B2 and C2 to strike through its own text.
I.E.
A2= anything other than "Closed"
then B2 and C2 = Blah blah blah
but if
A2 = Closed
then B2 and C2 = Blah blah blah
I'm new to VBA. I'm trying to write a macro that toggles between three or more font colors for the cells that are selected. I started with the "record macro" feature and then tinkered with the code because I obviously don't have a very good understanding of this process yet. How would I go about writing a code like this?

Such as:

Where the font for the word Red would be Red and Blue would be Blue.
I'm using the code below to lock certain cells depending on the value of other cells. The code below deals with one line of my spreadsheet only and as the spreadsheet comprises 38 data entry rows I've repeated this code 38 times in the worksheet module with the appropriate changes to row numbers.
It works, but causes much screen flickering and "thinking". I'm new to vba so no doubt I've made this code too extensive or lengthy or whatever (or just plain wrong).
Can anyone assist with suggestions on how to simplify the code and/or help with code to handle all 38 lines without repeating the routine 38 times?
I am looking for the best way to change the font of cells in a Worksheet that contain a formula. I have used Go To-Special-Formulas but have one slight problem with this method. It highlights all cells that contain an "=" sign. Some cells may be linked (ie cell A2 may say =cell A1). How would I change the font only for cells with a Function such as Sum or Vlookup and not for cells that simply link to another cell?
