Copying Many Cells, Drop Content Into One Cell?

Jul 7, 2009

I have a document I was directed to fill in. I was instructed to only use a certain number of characters and then drop into another cell below it for paragraphs of text. I have now been told they made a mistake, need me to copy all the related cells for a specific paragraph and drop them into a single cell.

Can I copy the text in multiple cells, and then drop the cell formating of those copied cells and drop the content into one single cell. Either word wrapping the content or soft returns for what looks like paragraphs again?

Drop Down List Based On Cell Content

Jul 22, 2007

I'm trying to find a macro that will allow me to enable several drop down lists in the same cell based on the content of another cell. In other words:

If cell A1 is the data entry cell, and the user enters "cat"
Then cell B1 will display a drop down list of previously grouped options: "mouse, bug, bird"

If in cell A1 the user enters "dog"
Then cell B1 will display a different list of previously grouped options: "mole, rabbit, kibble"

Copying Just The Non-zero Content

Feb 12, 2009

I have a worksheet of about 500 columns (or more)... I need to collect from a certain row, only a few dozens that are non zero. How can I create a formula that will take only the non-zero values from the columns, and list them in a new array or row?

The primitive solution I use now is copying the entire line to a different sheet (pasted with transpose) and the sorting A-Z... It's annoying because I need to afterwards delete hundreds of zero lines that seperate the positive from the negative, and it makes me lose track of the order in which these numbers appeared...

Read Cell Content & ADD Content + Font Properties *SOLVE

Sep 12, 2007

I use this to read cell content, add some text/characters (ie. [ and ]) and change the properties of the complete cell

Sub COMMENT()
Worksheets("DVD Lijssie").Activate
If ActiveCell.Value 0 Then ' Change all in to ... ... ...
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ActiveCell.Value & " " & "]" & " " & "["
With ActiveCell.Font
.Name = "Arial Narrow"
.Size = 8
.ColorIndex = 16
End With
End If
End Sub
HOW can I change this vba-code so it leave's the content of the cell like it is and add some content with the use of let's say TexBox1 and ONLY use different font properties for the newely added content?

Formatting Row Of Cells Based On A Cell Content

Feb 16, 2010

I want to format a range of cells based on the name listed in a cell in column A (starting @A6). I currently do this manually. It is to help me visually see the line I am working with and for what person.

I am almost certain that is going to take a VBA, but I know little to nothing about setting one up.

I have attached a sample. I am using Excel 2003.

Clear One Cells Content When Changing Another Cell

Jan 8, 2007

I am quite a novice with excel and I am trying to get a cell to show blank when I select a drop down list value in another cell.

Cell D2 contains a validated list containing two items (Air, Vacuum).

If I select Vacuum I wish to change another cells (D4) contents to blank, D4 is also a validated list containing three items (Yes, No, BLANK) the blank is actually a blank space and not the text blank.

I can get the cell to operate correctly but if I select Air in Cell D2 and then Yes in cell D4, but then change my mind and reset to Vacuum in cell D2 i need the cell D4 to clear its contents automatically.

Change Cell Color If Another Cells Content Is Yes Or No

Apr 3, 2009

I have a large workbook with some tasks.

My problem is:

I have 8 columns with info.

In the second column i type a part number and in the third one i type "Yes" or "No".

I wanted to make the second columns cell turn red if the third column's value is Yes or white if the value is No.

Is possible to do that with the help of a formula, conditional formating or vba?

I prefer to use a formula or the conditional formating.

I searched the net but i found a solution if the third column contains a number not a text.

Matching Cell Content Against Selected Cells - Not Range?

May 2, 2013

I'm trying to use the below formula to to return "true" when text in cell (M2) matches text in selected cells on same row (A2, E2, and G2)

However, all formulas I found online that serve this purpose deal with cell range only, not predetermined cells with exclusions.

Formula:

=IF(ISNUMBER(MATCH(M2,A2:G2,0),TRUE,FALSE) (This will match all cells between A2 and G2 against M2)

reforming this formula to match selected cells only in-between that range (A2, E2 and G2)?

Change Content Of One Cell Based On Content Of Another

Apr 18, 2014

Formula/macro/etc that would enable me to have content of a cell changed based on the content of another cell in the same row.

Example: cell in column D says "PSA" - so I would need the cell in column H for that same row to read "Radio"

I would need an entire sheet scanned to review for these occurrences and make the appropriate changes. I also would need the formula to be inclusive enough to scan for variations in column D cell content (PSA 1, PSA 2, etc).

Copying Data To Another Sheet Based Upon YES / NO Drop-down Selection

Apr 30, 2014

I have a workbook consisting of 5 sheets.

Sheet 1 is the master sheet, and (among many other columns) it has a series of yes/no columns. The yes/no options are the equivalent of:

"Are you in sheet 2?"
"Are you in sheet 3?"

etc.

When this is the Yes option, I would like the rest of the contents of the row to copy into sheet 2.

These need to remain linked, so if I change stuff in Sheet 1 I would like it to change everywhere.

Copying Certain Values From One Cell (not The Value From Entire Cell) Into Other Cells

I'm having a column called "Body". Each cell in this column contains a huge amount of text. I want to select automatically certain values from that text and copy them into other cells. This image will explain what i mean:

I tried to work with the function MID but that doesn't work because the values don't have a fixed position. They don't start always at the same character number.

Copying Data From Merged Cell Into All Resulting Cells After Splitting

Dec 2, 2009

I have a spreadsheet that has been given to me by someone else, and unfortunately it has merged cells in it that are causing some trouble. I need to have a way to unmerge the merged cells, but for the data in the merged cell to then be copied into each cell that it splits into.

I've attached two spreadsheets - unfortunately I can't really attach the real one since it has research data in it, so I've reduced the size of the file and replaced some of the text. The first file shows how the file starts off, and the file named "result" shows how I would like it to be.

My real file contains some 10,000+ lines of data, and the merged cells are of varying sizes, with no consistency to the size, so I'd like a way to automate this instead of copy and pasting into every empty cell after I unmerge them.

Excel 2003 :: Copying Cells Based On Alternate Cell Value?

Sep 26, 2011

I am wondering if it possible to automate the copying of data from particular cells, based on a value in a different cell, into a different format.

So to go from this simplified table:

AB1NameLevel2Arthur2a3Briony3c4Catherine3b5David3a6Edward2a7Felicity3c8George3c
to something like this:

FGHI12a3c3b3a2ArthurBrionyCatherineDavid3EdwardFelicity

George

At the moment I do it all manually, and it takes forever. I am sure there must be a simple way of doing it. I am using Excel 2003, but could work in a newer version if required.

Lock Empty Cells In Range Based On Other Cells Content

Apr 18, 2008

I am trying to lock the unused cells in 32, 2 column by 7 row named ranges, based on whether or not two cells, above each range are equal or less than each other. In other words while one of the cells is less than or equal to the second cell all cells in the range below should be unlocked, as soon as that condition is no longer true the blank cells need to be locked.

I am trying to use this in the Workbook_Sheetcalculate so that the macro will run automatically.

Drop Down List Which Returns Values Based On What Has Been Selected In The Previous Drop Down List In The Adjacent Cell

Mar 19, 2009

I'm trying to create a drop down list which returns values based on what has been selected in the previous drop down list in the adjacent cell, e.g. if 'Apples' is selected in the previous cell then you should only be able to select from 'Gala, Granny Smith', or if 'Oranges' is selected you should only be able to select 'Seville, Blood Orange'. Is there a formula which would do this, or can I use a pivot table somehow? I'm totally stumped.

VBA / Word Picture Content Control Causing Unreadable Content?

Jan 15, 2013

I am using VBA to create a word document (.docx). This word document contains plain text content controls as well as picture content controls. I then use VBA to automatically select a picture based on the code below

Code:
Set oCC = Word.ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("TabPic").Item(1)
On Error GoTo TabErrorHandler
oCC.Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture Filename:="X:XFERANDREW-TDCD " & LblVL &

[Code].....

After the document has been closed down I try to open it again and I am told "The file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents."

When I click details it says "Unspecified error" and "Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line: 2, Column: 0"

If I click ok it says "Word found unreadable content in "". Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you turst the source of this document, click Yes.

Clicking Yes opens the document with all the contents and it is now renamed to Document 1. If I click no it does not open.

Identifying Cells By Content

Nov 24, 2003

I would like to write a macro to examine a range of cells, and over-write some of those cells with a zero.

I want to over write those cells with either a numerical constant, or a formula with only constants, e.g.

"12345" or "= 123+567-(2*5)"

I do NOT want to over write cells that contain links or any functions:

"=page3!a5" or "=sum(a1:b6"

SUM Cells With Same Content And Multiplied By Quantity Of Each?

Jan 8, 2014

Basically i need a formula that will look at the message content on a seperate sheet (Data sheet on the attached example) and multiple by the volume of the message type to return a value on a seperate sheet.

The problem i have is our messages appear in the data as seperate lines based on the entire message content, with a quantity of how many times that exact message was sent on a day DESPITE there being many variations of a message, they may all only equate to 1 or 2 actual message types.

In the example you will see the Data tab showing Example message 1, Example message 1.1 etc. All of the Example message 1-1.5 are actually the same message type (same applies to Example message 2) and i need to be able to have formula that groups and counts these to return a value by message type * by the quantity per day. So in the example, Example message 1 would return a result of 10 on the main sheet.

Deleting Content Of Unlocked Cells?

Mar 21, 2014

I have a spreadsheet that has mostly locked cells but randomly placed unlocked cells.

The sheet is completed, often saved and printed. We then go back into it and use it for another customer calculation and need to ensure all previous entries are removed. With the locked cells you can't simply highlight an area to clear so I am wondering if there is a way to clear the unlocked cells in one step other than entering on each on to clear.

Would there be any way that if we cleared the first cell the others would clear?

Unmerging Cells - Keeping Content

Dec 5, 2013

I have two columns, the left of which consists of merged cells. I got the document in this format, but to work with it, I need to unmerge the cells in the left column - simple enough.

However, when I do so, only the top cell in the group contains any actual data. What I get is this:

Age
18-20

21-25

26-30

And I would like it to look this way:

Age
18-20

Age
21-25

Age
26-30

Is there a simple way to get this result automatically when unmerging the cells? And if not, what is the fastest solution to avoid tons of manual copying?
