Converting A Database?
Dec 12, 2012
Using an existing database with nonfixed boundaries I am creating a new one with uniform boundaries.
The simple spreadsheet I will use in this comment isn't what the database actually looks like but represents what I am trying to achieve.
StartFinishAssigned #
0151
15252
25403
40552
55602
60804
80953
951002
Here I have the old data, organised into sections that have the same assigned number. (Note: the assigned number may be the same as the previous cell). I wish to change it into this structure:
StartFinish#
020
2040
4060
6080
80100
It will be organised by the start and finish instead of by the assigned number. Instead I would like the number to reflect the lowest assigned number that occupies a part of that area.Is it possible to create a forumla which would achieve this?

I'm opening a non-excel file in excel and it formats it into a series of rows/columns. The problem I have is that it doesn't consolidate all related data in the same row, for each new column of data it breaks into a separate row. I'd like to easily roll it all up into a single row.
I've attached a sample file to illustrate. The "Original" sheet is what I'm starting with and the "Final" sheet is what I hope to condense the data into.

I have a database spreadsheet where it shows, the date and time a sale was made in 2 different columns, one for date, one for time (in Epoch format). What I need to do is convert this date/time to PST vs. the EST it's defaulted to.

I am currently trying to create a database of products for my company. For each product I would like to include an image associated with it. I then want to have on another sheet a place where the user will click an error and be able to cycle through the products. As tehy cycle the associated image will pop up.
What I need to understand is after importing the image into excel, how do I associate that image to a cell so I can reference it in another sheet of the database. I am not concerned with how large the database will get, my pictures are quite small.

I've used a countifs, but I'm having trouble doing a sum in a similar way. I have 2 databases and I will try to explain below. I need the to sum the values of database 1 if the second database is >= 20. So the value I would expect on this example would be 900. I would also like to be able to highlight which ones are elliminated. Such as coloring the text red.
Database 1
Eric 100
Jenny 200
Gina 300
Doug 400
Database 2
Eric 18
Jenny 20
Gina 34
Doug 55

I've been browsing through postings for a while now trying to figure out a solution to my excel formula problem. While there is a lot of useful info, I have not found anything that will get me where I need to be. I am hoping that someone here will be able to me out. My project is this.
-A workbook with about 20 sheets.
-Sheet one will be a master list of serial numbers with blank fields for dates, account numbers etc.
-Sheets 2-20 will be used to assign those serial numbers to individuals.
-On each individual's sheet there are fields for dates, account numbers etc. next to the serial number.
-I need the master sheet to look through the individual sheets and insert the date, account numbers etc. into the master sheet.
I can get the IF function to work with one sheet but cant figure out how to do this across multiple.

uses CSV files for importing product data, problem is both have it formatted differently. What i ideally need is a master file that i can change whenever a price needs changing or product adding, this feeds down into 2 csv files that are formatted for the relevent softwares and then i can use a macro to upload these automaticly at end of day. ive tried using just excel but had no luck, i tried using access and custom reports but keeping getting errors as page size is 35 fields long and doesnt want to export as a csv,

I have a big database that has different name in column A(something like Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, Y5, Y6, Y7, Y8...). What i'm trying to do is to group them! In group A i have Y1,Y7, in group B i have Y2,Y3, in group C i have Y4, Y6 and etc! I think the solution is something like index...but i never worked with that in VBA! So each name of group A should copy on a new sheet, the next rows should come group B and etc! Is there a way to do that in VBA?

I'm generally trying to figure out in my head most of the pluses and minuses for using Excel Worksheets as a database. In My case it means adding data from a UserForm to Excel cells and upon these data to analyze the info from the worksheets to other worksheets like charts, tables etc. Here's my view:
Pluses:
1. VBA and Excel integrate well as a whole, easy to use, well know interface
2. There're many available options to manipulate with the database once it's arranged properly in the excel worksheets
3. Don't need to give extra money software like Microsoft SQL etc.
Minuses:
1. Slower operating because it takes some more memory and processing time to reference the data in the cells. Here I mean operations between the UserForm(s) and the Worksheet(s)
2. You can have DB not bigger than 256*65000
3. XLS files are generally much bigger as a size -> slower work as a whole
4. Maybe (i'm not sure here) there're less tools and options than a real SQL software
What options I have:
1. Use some SQL DB which is free
2. Use Text Files to write and read from

in summarizing my data set. specifically, I have names of organizations listed in once column and in one of the others I have status of organization (open, closed), number of transactions and volume of transaction by months for each organization. In a summary sheet I need a formula that would look up for a specific organization in the long data base and match it with its status and count the number of "opened"(or "closed") organizations matching that specific name as well as sum the total volume of transactions for that specific organization. If I stated my request unclearly i can explain it better or attach a excel sheet.

I am working on a database for a client. The database has a few worksheets with an overview (contents) worksheet. What I am trying to do is create a hyperlink from the contents page to the corresponding worksheet. I can do this no problem...my problem is that if I add more data to the worksheet the hyperlink is lost. I am linking the sheets via cells so if a cell is moved down to add a new cell the hyperlink is no longer valid. Is there a rule I can create to keep the hyperlink and not have to adjust it every time new data is added.

I was wondering if there was any code that would 'lookup' a value in a MS Access database in the same way that a Vlookup formula looks up values in tables in Excel.
Even better, if there was a fuction already written to do this.

I have a formula that puts a date into a format I want to read date from a data base.
[Code] ..........
Output is correct = '17-03-2014' if the date is greater than or equals to the 10th but if its the 1st for example I get '1-03-2014' which is wrong as I need the zero to count the date properly. I tried a Left formula on a date field to bring in the first 2 digits but because its a date it returns for example 41 instead of 17 if its the 17th. I was going to do a Left(Text type of formula and place it into an if statement but that didnt work.

When copying data from a website to excel, excel recognizes the dates wrongly.
About half of the dates he sees as: DD/MM/YYYY, while it should be: nothing/MM/DD.
For example: The cell contains the date: 01/04/2029 (The first of April, 2029)
While it should actually be: 04/29 (The 29th of April, no year!)
For all dates it starts with the 1, followed by a month, followed by a year (which consists of the year 2000 + the actual day), which is totally wrong.
About the other half of the cells, it just contains text with the month and the day (which are correct), but excel doesn't recognize this as a day.
For example: The cell contains the text: June 12
When I set the cell format to date (or any other format for that matter), nothing happens, so excel does not see this as a date.
