Converting 2 Columns With Repeating Info Into Another Worksheet In Horizontal Format
Jun 28, 2013
taking a spreadsheet that has vertical repeating info in Column A and results in Column B and converting that to another sheet in a horizontal list. The main problem is that the repeating info in Column A may or may not always be the same for every customer; therefore, when it is placed in a horizontal format some cells may or may not have results. I tried a arbitrary lookup. Here is the formula I used:
conditional formatting in Excel. I have two columns with pertinent information. I need to know the following and format accordingly:
1. Is the number in column A positive or negative? 2. Is the number in column B less than 0.05 or 0.10?
I would then like Column C to just be highlighted a certain color depending on the combination... there are 5 possible combinations and I would like the cells to be formatted so that:
1. Positive and less than 0.05 - Bright yellow 2. Positive and less than 0.10 - Pale yellow 3. Negative and less than 0.05 - Bright green 4. Negative and less than 0.10 - Pale green 5. This "combo" just means the criteria wasn't meant... which is possible b/c sometimes Column A may have text instead of a number of b/c the number in column B is not less than 0.10. If either of these is true, I want the cell to remain blank.
I need to transpose or move some of the data on Column B to horizontal position, is there a formula that I can use to do this? Attached is sample of what I want to do.
I have a forecast which is sorted by product code by week vertically. I need to create a lookup to re-format this information into a horizontal format by week. I have started this by transposing the information as my attachment shows but I am hoping there is a lookup formula which will be easier and quicker. I have attached the actual document and the data I want to sort is Sheet 2. I have started in Sheet 1. I want to look up the code in column A, then lookup the week number which would be B2 in Sheet 1 and return the value of that Code in that week from Sheet 1.
I am having issues with this sheet. i am trying to get this formula to stick, when i drag down or across. its not holding the formula true to the first column. i am unsure of what this is called or else i would be using more specific words.
One of the reports I run provides me information on lengths of time. Such a field displays as |0:09:16| indicating 9 minutes and 16 seconds. However, when the report generates the excel spreadsheet it saves these cells in date/time format ([h]:mm:ss). If I were to convert this field to the number format (so I can manipulate and graph it) it displays as such |0.00643460648148148| Ideally I would be able to have the data in the field stored as |556| (556 seconds, or 9 minutes 16 seconds). I have thousands of fields that I need to manipulate where the data is stored in this format and I can not figure out how to fix it.
I have an excel sheet that we need to type in an account number it always starts with 8774100 then has 9 more numbers. If I leave it on number formating it always changes the last number to 0 so I format the cell as TEXT. Anyway is there a way to get the 8774100 to automatically go in and only have to type the last 9 numbers? I know I can copy paste but then I have to double click or make sure I enter the last 9 numbers at the end or use the top entry. The data entry people just want to hit enter and go from line to line fast. In the past I just divided the cell into 2 cells and made the 8774100 in column A and columb B was the ending 9 numbers. But they need to be in the same cell.
I have a one column spreadsheet. The column contains this data:
1 Name 2 Address 3 City 4 State 5 Zip 6 Telephone 7 Fax 8 URL 9 10 11 Name 12 Address 13 City 14 State 15 Zip 16 Phone 17 URL 18 19 Name 20 Address ... and so on
Where there may be one or two blank rows between the individual records and where there may or may not be a Fax number (or row) in the record.
I am trying to convert this data to a horizontal column format - which works fine if I do a copy/paste special/transpose. However I have to do this for 1,800 records and cannot figure out how to do this reliably.
I gave the above illustration to simplify but, actually this is a two column spreadsheet with individual row labels for every record using the above terminology. In other words the above text is in the first column and the data is in the second. Just thought I'd mention in case there was a way to do some kind of if/then formula.
reformat a table in which data for each named person is presented in one row with mutiple columns into a table in which each named person has multiple rows and one column of data. The solution to to this has eluded me so far.
I need to show data across the page, currently the data is arranged in column's, I need it displayed in row's. Each material has a number of components, it is the components which I want to show across the page, with the different headings.
I have attached the current format and the required format.
Note the spreadsheet I will be working on has thousands of materials and hundreds of components.task.xls
I have several columns of data representing a shop operation along different years. Now I try to see how will it look like if I have 10 shops like this, all summed up. The problem is that each shop will have the same numbers as the other 9, just that it's first year of operation will be different.
Now, I don't want to have different sheet for each and every shop since their data is exactly the same. I only want to have 1 type of shop which I can add to a consolidated sheet but 10 times, and each time the first year shoud be different.
But again, I don't want to open a different table for each shop and than sum them up - I want to have only my one shop, and have a possibility to say when will I open my next shop and the consolidation will be automatically.
I have completed the first section of my spreadsheet.
Section 1 has a number of mandatory fields. Once these are complete and the user changes a combo box then Section 2 opens
I now want to repeat the same again for section 2. Making fields mandatory before a user can change a combo box to yes, which then opens Section 3
From looking around the forum / google I think I can only have one worksheet_change per sheet. If this is the case, how do I now start my next section (to basically repeat Section1 again)
The code I have is:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Not Application.Intersect(Range("E20"), Target) Is Nothing Then 'Section 1 Range("A22:A130").EntireRow.Hidden = True
I need to prepare count sheets for stock take on my company and I have a long list for data with hundreds of locations. What my colleagues have been doing is to filter the locations 1 by 1 and clicking print because we want the page numbering to be 'page 1 of 3', page 2 of 3 etc. for each location.
For example
Location a has 2 pages we want it to be page 1 of 2, page 2 of 2
Location b has 1 page we want it to be page 1 of 1
This is so that we can detect if any count sheets have gone missing.
I want to be able to print everything at 1 go, without filtering the locations manually and clicking print as it takes hours to do so.
Is there anyway I can do it? I have some knowledge on excel but not macros.
I have a strange problem with a spreadsheet I've set up. It has several tabs with multiple information on each. The sums on each individual tab are linked to the front tab (which I've used as a summary page), but I haven't put any other links in.
For some reason, when I type anything in certain cells on one of the tabs (including the summary but not just that), it appears also on all the others, not necessarily in the same place. If I delete it on the the other tabs where it shouldn't be, it deletes the original on the correct tab, which I want to keep. This has been going on for ages, it annoyed me so much I completely recreated the spreadsheet, from scratch, but it's still happening.
I have a formula in cell A1 that I need to drag downwards so that it fills cells A2 to A10. That formula is picking up the figures located in another sheet but the figures on that sheet are arranged horizontally (A1 to J1). Is there a formula to perform this action? I've tried playing around with the $ sign in my formulas but it does not work.
On the attached example i have a list of fractions (in the format ?/???). However, i have a problem when the fraction is 6/4 or 4/6 as excel rounds the nominator and de-nominator down to the lowest value so these fractions become 3/2 and 2/3. For these two fractions only i don't want this rounding down to happen.
I am open to any suggestions, but i was thinking of some vba where on pressing a button it would run a macro that went through the cells in the column and if the cell value is 1.5 (3/2) then format the cell as text and enter the value"6/4". For the 2/3 fraction, i think you may need to say if the cell is greater than 0.66 and less than 0.67 because this would possibly be harder to exact as the number of decimal places involved.
I have 1 column of pasted values that basically look like this c 1:a 2:b 3:c 1:d 2:e 3:f etc...
And they need to look like this: c1 c2 c3 a b c d e f
I know how to separate the first column into two columns by separating the values by the colon. But how do I rearrange the values as above and combine all "1"s in c1 so it becomes the headers and the column is populated only with the values? The table is too big to do manually (thousands of rows).
In the above (repeating for say, 50 or more cartons), is there a way with a macro(I know nothing about) or pivot table(see macro) to get the following format/result?
I am trying to do something that is probably impossible, but I figured if anyone could come up with a solution, it would be you folks here at Mr. Excel, so here goes.
I'm trying to set up two columns in Excel 2000; for simplicity sake, let’s just call them Column A and Column B. Each row in Column A will contain a code (a combination of letters and numbers) that represents one of 65 different workstations, and they could repeat multiple times. Each row in Column B will contain a number that represents a specific tool, and there are potentially hundreds of different tool numbers.
What I am trying to accomplish is to have something alert me when any tool number in column B appears alongside more than one workstation code in column A. It would really be nice if something like conditional formatting could be used to change the text to red or something when this happened. I know I can use filtering to accomplish this, but with hundreds of different tool codes, filtering just takes too long.
sorting data I use in a workbook for athletics. I've really chopped down my workbook for upload, In the worksheet "Leaderboard" I can call up stats for different lifts, and it finds (in this case) the top 5 lifts and the names for the kids that have those corresponding lifts.
My problem is that when two or more kids have the same lift, it will only call up the name of the first instance of that lift. You can see this in the "Leaderboard" worksheet, and the name "Adams, Andrew" appears for both lifts of 75. I would appreciate any help on how to correct this, as I've searched the Internet for weeks now looking for a solution. I've tried experimenting with different things as well, all to no avail.
Is it possible to automatically have columns repeat through all sheets in a workbook? I keep an annual book, broken down by sheets for each month. I always have to add 5 columns to each sheet, and was wondering if there was an easier way..?
I am using VBA to copy and paste multiple sheets from one workbook to another. The workbook where the sheets are being pasted has no prior formatting. I want to transfer the *print* formats from the first to the second sheet via VBA. One key thing to note is that the print formats are constantly being changed in the first workbook. So I think I need code to "grab" the formats, then transfer them to the second workbook.
The file is broken down by revenue codes on the first row of the account and then units on the second row. (450= Revenue Code and 1=Units associated with that revenue code) Then a new account number starts and it is revenue codes on the first first row and units on the second row.
I have a spreadsheet with five cells (L3 - L7) that have dates entered into them in the format of 9/9/2013, 9/10/2013, 10/20/2013, 10/21/2013, 10/22/2013. In another cell, cell n2, I have the formula:
In cell n2 I get: 41526415274156741568481569 This is the excel number for the above dates, but I need it to look like:
Sep. 9 - 10, 2013, Oct. 20 - 22, 2013
I also need it to be able to isolate single dates for example if the date in cell l5 was 10/5/2013 instead of 10/20/2013 then I would want n2 to look like Sep. 9 - 10, 2013, Oct. 5, 2013, Oct. 21 - 22, 2013. but my formula currently only changes that number in the string from 41567 to 41552.
The reason I need this is because this information is part of a identifier and also maybe used in reports, the people reading the reports won't know this long number is actually dates and won't be able to read them if they did.
Also the cells L3 - L7 data depends on cell l2, 1 = one date entered into cell l3, 2 = two dates, one in cell l3, the next in cell l4, and so on for up to five total days that may or may not be consecutive. Also, it seems to work as is, but only for one day.
I am working with two spread sheets; one is my take-off/summary sheet which is where I populate all the data for the project I am working on, the second sheet is also a summary sheet but it has also other functions; hence, I need to have two spread sheets.
I need to link/reference the data I have on my take-off sheet row 119, column K through ACL (lots of columns) to my other sheet but it now needs to be referenced in a column direction. At first, I enter = (sign) in T9 (the sheet I need to bring the data in) and then I go to the take-off sheet select N119 and hit enter, this first data is good, but then I try to drag it down to populate all the data from the other sheet but even though I lock the row (N$119) and let N free the formula doesn't populate this: =!N$119, =!O$119, ='!P$119 and so on so for...all what it gives me is =!N$119 all the way down...
I collect data from a data historian and I'm having difficulty with a date format. The collected data is saved in a txt file and imported to Excel 2007.
The date returned by the historian is the following format
9/30/2007 8:45:18.000 PM
This format is not recongnized by Excel as a date format but as a text box.
How can I change this to a date format without having to change all the dates and times manually (over 10 000 dates)?
