I am trying to copy a range from one workbook to another. The complex part is that the the two workbooks are different instances of excel and one of them is hidden.
In the below code inSheet is a worksheet on a work book that is hidden.
I'm using WinXP with Excel 2003 - I have a column of highway sign description data (16k+ rows).
Example:
Curve Arrow Right Curve Arrow Left Turn Arrow Reversing Curve Arrow Right Winding Road Arrow(plus many more unique entries)
I'm using SUM and COUNTIF to total the number of times "Curve", "Reversing", "Turn" and "Winding" appear in the column.
My formula is: Code: =SUM(COUNTIF($F11:$F16196,{"*CURVE*","*REVERSING*","*TURN*","*WINDING*"}))
Which works great EXCEPT what I really want is the number of cells with any of those key words, not the total count of those words. The example above should be 5, but since row four contains more that 1 of the key words I'm getting 6.
I have a vba routine in my source application that creates a new instance of Excel and opens a new workbook in the new application using the following lines of Set WoApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application") Set WoBook = WoApp.Workbooks.Add Set WoSheet = WoBook.Worksheets(1)
(This is standard code straight out of the vba Help for 'createobject')
The source appplication builds output in the form of worksheets which includes cell content and pictures placed in shape objects.
I need to copy each completed worksheet from the source application into the new workbook. For example, if MyBook is in the same Excel application as the source then this code will do it:
I am having trouble pasting between two spreadsheets in different instances of Excel.
I am copying a range of cells and then attempting to paste using ctrl + v/ right-click + paste in a workbook in the other instance of excel. It just selects the area where the cells would be pasted but nothing appears.
The only way I can get it to work is by using the clipboard task pane and clicking paste from there however this isn't a long term option as I need to code this into a macro. I also don't understand why there is a difference between pasting from the clipboard panel and pressing 'ctrl v'.
There are not macros running at the time and pasting into another program e.g. notepad works fine.
Windows 7 . How do i open multiple instances of excel? even when im working with two workbooks rather than both appearing as the active book in excel only one can be on top. id ideally like to have both appear side by side on my desktop, vertically not horizontally.
I'm trying to make a spreadsheet template that will find and replace all instances of a given word with a bold or highlighted version. However, I do not know how to make this process passive and automated. That is, as soon as I type certain words, they should be auto-corrected. Is there a way to set excel so it will recognize certain words and replace them? Is there a way to do this in the settings? I don't think a macro is the right answer in this case, so I put it in the general thread.
I have an excel application which works extremely well in one single instancec. It has a bunch of ActiveX control objects on the worksheet. Generally I call them by convention Sheet1.Cmd.show.
I have since experimented with having multiple instances of excel running on the machine. I start to notice something very strange. The first instance I open and run all the activeX buttons are all clickable. As soon as I open a second instance of an excel program all the activeX buttons on the worksheet are not even clickable. They are enabled by my program, but not clickable as if they were not there at all.
I also try open a normal excel workbook then followed by my excel program in a second instance. Even though the first excel file does not utilize any activeX objects all my buttons on the subsequent instance are not clickable.
The weird thing is all my activeX control objects on a userforms are still clickable and call to all my planned events in my program. It is just all the activeX controls on my worksheet that do not have any reaction at all.
I always think when one opens a new instance it will be totally indpendent and would even occupy another CPU if my machine has more in it. If they are truly independent then I am at a loss to understand why my activeX controls would fail to work at all.
I'm doing a study of when people are most productful in their day. I just need to count how many units a person made within say 4 hours of starting work.
I am in the exploratory stages of determining whether I can create a report in Excel 2007 to add the instances of a particular entry in a column. It is tricky, because I want to survey only the first 4 entry rows of a group of 8 entries and then return the result as only one instance of the entry over each of a set number of these sets of data rows, in each case 4 sets. This process would repeat down the spreadsheet, and the number of occurrences of each particular entry summed and reported in a separate tab of the same spreadsheet.
The rows in this spreadsheet are 17-1240. The entry names are a combination of two columns, J and K. These must match identically for the counter to count an additional entry.
I would prefer to make the report in a different tab in the same spreadsheet...just available for reference.
With the following formula, I can lookup all instances of D2 and get the average of all its corresponding values in column A (see attached). But how do I lookup a specified number of instances (say the first three) and get the average for those values in column A? For now, we’ll just have to assume that there are more than three instances of D2 on the worksheet I attached.
=AVERAGE(IF($B$2:$B$26=$D$2, $A$2:$A$26))
Would the numbers need to be in an order by date to lookup just the first three instances?
I have a large dataset with a company name in Column A and a Town in Column B, e.g.
ABC Company London ABC Company London XYX Company Swindon STJ Company Bristol STJ Company Bristol STJ Company Bristol DEF Company London DEF Company London DEF Company London
and I need to identify every instance where the same town appears for each instance of each individual company and add in Column C incrememnt the town name, so the above should end up looking like this:
ABC Company London London ABC Company London London-1 XYX Company Swindon Swindon STJ Company Bristol Bristol STJ Company Bristol Bristol-1 STJ Company Bristol Bristol-2 DEF Company London London DEF Company London London-1 DEF Company London London-2
I'm thinking I need to use some sort of lookup, but because of the volume of the instances of each company I have no idea how many instance appear in the data set. How could I go about achieving this and incrementing the town names in Column C automatically for each instance?
I have text strings containing 3 commas at all times (see below for example). All instances of the commas are names at either end of the comma (Last, First). My request is how would I be able to retrieve *only* the 2nd and 3rd names (in separate cells) and omitting the rest of the text?
Example: A1 - Source 2/1/2010 Random - Text - Containing 1LastName, 1FirstName 2LastName, 2FirstName 3LastName, 3FirstName Some Other Text 555555556 1234567890 1 0 0
What I want to do today is, I want to get the extension (Type) of a file from the string. I have managed to get formula for that.
PHP Code:Â
=IFERROR(RIGHT(C12,LEN(C12)-FIND(".",C12)+1),"")Â
But the problem is, if the name of the file also have any dots, it is not giving correct result.
For Eg, if the string is ABCD_V1.0.mpp, I am getting 0.0.mpp not .mpp
NB: The file name may or may not have dots. So cannot tell that, it is always the second instance. Need to find the last dot and trip the things before that
Basically, I have a table with rows as person, and variables as features. If a person meets a feature, the that cell writes 'X', now, I hope to create a master variable that capture all the features, basically counting how many features a person has met. For example, Joe has three features; "have balls," "cool guy", "good with ladies". In the cell in question would be "X" "" "X". And if I count, then it should be 2.
I have four columns with data. I need to Correlate columns 1 and 4. eg. Column 1 = All instances of Column 4. I must do this by matching the values of Column 2 to Column 3. There will/can be multiple instances of the same values in all columns.
I have four different sheets with email addresses in an excel file. There are some email addresses which are present in more than one sheet. I wanted to find these email addresses and remove its multiple instances.
I can't use the simplified version of vlookup, as I can't enter each email address to see if there is another instance.
Is there a way where the excel sheet can search within itself for duplicate values and if not delete/at least point them out, so that I can delete them manually?
I'm using the following code which is working well. It finds an instance of the string "A83". Once it finds it, it moves down x number of cells and populates it with a new string. It then moves down another x number of cells and populates it with another new string, etc.
The problem is, it is only looking for "A83" one time and performing the appropriate actions at that point. What I need to do is look for *every* instance of the string "A83" and perform the appropriate actions.
I have one main workbook that, when opened, opens three other workbooks each in its own instance of Excel. I'd like to know how to close all three of these upon closing this main workbook.
I have a problem, I have a formula which counts the number of instances that occur and assigns the value as 1 for every instance, however I want the formual to also recognise that if a number of instances occur in succession a value of 1 should also be assigned.
E.g. if a person is absent for 1 day the formula assigns a value of 1 if a person is off for 3 days in succession the formula assigns a value of 1
I have a total of 364 rows of data for this table.
My output table looks like the following:
{mod note - HTML not working and removed}
What I want the output from a formula(???) to do is put every 'Play Date' for each 1st, 2nd, & 3rd column for every number from 0 to 9. So under Column A for zero and 1st I want every date that is listed in the source table in column 1st to list out. All I can get is the first instance of a date and nothing else.esn't use that would be great.
FYI the formula that I used to get the one entry in column A row 4 was this:
I would like to count the number of instances of different schedules shows in one department. For example for dept. 1, I would like to know how many different schedules are in that dept. I have 48 schedules and 60 departments (numbered 1-60). I would like to know how many "different schedules" dept 1 has and so on. I don't think the frequency function will work. Is there a way I can use sumproduct to get the result I'm looking for? The information is on a separate worksheet in colums (Col. A holds the dept and Col. B holds the relative schedule).
Weekly I receive commission payment data. Essentially 2 columns, Col A the client name, Col B the commission amount. I like to sort the data so that I have a total commission amount for each client Firstly I sort the 2 Cols alphabetically. Where there is only one instance of a client name, the total commission is obvious. But any client can appear several times (anything up to 6) with corresponding commission amounts for each name occurrence. One week a client may not appear at all, or they may appear from 1 to 6 times. I seek a formula which, where there are multiple instances of the same client name. will total all the commission payments for that client. Naturally the formula can be in a new Col.
I have an excel file with around 15 sheets. While i open it, i am getting 5 instances of the same file, that means after i open it , i could see 5 copies of the same file. If i make changes in one file, in others also its getting reflected.
how to label/define what I need so I'm not sure what needs to be provided...
I have two columns of data- phone number, city. Each row is an individual record of a call from that phone number to that city. And, I need to ID, for the eventual end goal of deleting, those phone numbers that called multiple cities.
I just installed excel 2007 and encounter a strange problem. When I open 2 or more excel instances from windows explore by double-clicking excel icons, those instances are not linkable, they seem absolutely independent to one another (in View/switch windows only sees one workbook). However when I open second file from within the first instance (Ctrl+O), I see 2 in the view/switch windows and it works fine.
I have two workbooks, a "vehicle workbook" and an "Oil sample" workbook. I'm trying to write a macro that will store the ID of the vehcile in "vehicle workbook" into a varible, open the Oil sample workbook and find instances of the vehicle ID in column B. Next it will copy the entire row, and paste it back into the "vehicle workbook". I've taken some code and modified it to try and make it work but I'm running into problems. I'm very much a newbie to excel and macro's and am learning little by little. This is what I have so far...

ScreenUpdating = False Application.EnableEvents = False Dim vehicleNumber As Variant Dim sourceLocation As String Dim sourceFileName As String Dim fileName As String Dim vehicleFileName As String 'referencing the workbook location of the vehicle vehicleFileName = ActiveWorkbook.FullName MsgBox (vehicleFileName) 'copying the vehicle number into memory ie.EFQRTS67WZ100121 vehicleNumber = ActiveSheet.
