Cell Counting Based On Text And Style?

Feb 3, 2012

I'm putting together a calendar that will have show when people are off on holiday, training, out of the office or ill. But as it will identify people by name I have changed to cell style to reflect just what activity they are doing. As such I want to be able to count over a year just who has done what.

Is there a piece of code that can count based on the text inside a cell and it's style e.g. "20% - Accent1"

Adding And Subtracting Based On Text

Jun 6, 2014

I'm having an issue with Excel. I believe I need to use a nested IF statement but I can't get it to work properly.

Starting Total = 50
Col A Col B Col C
20 IN 70
40 OUT 45
35 IN 80

What I am trying to achieve is if col B says in then add col a to the col c total from the line above, if col c says out then subtract col a from the row above in col c.

I have worked out how to subtract or add in seperate formulas but i cant seem to get it to work in the same formula.

Excel 2010 :: Sorting Or Counting Based On Text Colour

Sep 10, 2013

I have a database of names in one column in excel 2010 and over time I have coloured the text of some of the names green to show that they have been added to a new online database. I want to be able to count how many of the names have been coloured so I can see if it matches with the total number already added on to the online database. I have over 800 entries so I don't want to have to manually count them unless I find I have missed any. Conditional Formatting is greyed out (it is a Shared document so that might be why).

in creating an IF (text is a certain colour) THEN 1, 0 or any others ways I can find the total in that colour. I only have two text colours in my spread sheet, black and light green.

Adding Cells Based On Shade / Text Colour

Jul 4, 2007

I have a spreadsheet where I am adding up figures in columns.

I need to differentiate between 4 different "types" of cells to sum.
Cells with figures in them are either green, red or have no fill; and some cells contain no figures at all.

At the bottom of the column, I need to total up all the figures in red cells, as well as all the figures in green cells.

The shading of these cells is not permanent - colours are changed as work progresses, so I need the totals to keep up with this.

If it cannot be done based on cell fill colour, is there any other way to do it, other than the usual long-winded way of @sum(..... etc

Excel 2007 :: Conditional Formatting And Adding Text To Cell Based On Multiple Cells

May 31, 2013

I'm using Excel 2007. I would prefer to stay away from the scripting side of the house if possible. This is basically a 3 day forcast weather chart. The top is the actual weather data, the bottom portion is a color coded reflection of how the weather affects various things.

This product is created in excel, but will be embedded into a powerpoint. It will be updated daily. Here is what I would like. I want the color chart at the bottom to update automatically based on the data I enter above. I have a grasp that I can update the color through conditional formatting, although im not exactly sure what that will look like with all of those cells.

I also figured out that I can insert the letters in those lower cells with something similar to " =IF(C6>90, "T", "") " which would put in a 'T' for Temperature when the temperature got above a certain degree.

I run into a problem when I have multiple factors affecting a single cell. For instance on the example in day 2 of my image. Personnel are affected by Temperate AND UV Index. How would I set up that cell to pull that information from both of those cells and display it accordingly? I would prefer the letters to stay separated by the comma, but I could live without that. The default cell color will be green, with the potential to be yellow or red. I left a few examples of possible situations on day 2 and 3.

Counting Text In A Column If

Dec 17, 2007

Im trying to find out a way of counting the contents of, say: column C where that contains text as long as column B = a variable

Basically column C contains the words Sale and Lead and i need a function that reads column B for examples of a user defined variable (1-4) and counts sale or lead in column C if this condition is satisfied.

like a sumif but capable of adding text (two cases of in this example but not really vital as the only things in column C would be sale, lead or left blank)?

I picked up a great formula from this website to count unique values =SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(K19:K205,K19:K205)>0,1)) and it works great. Thank you to whoever sent it (sorry, forgot who)

I am trying to find a formula to do the same for text.

Counting Text WITHIN Cells

Mar 3, 2009

I have a long list of cells each one containing a list of attributes similar to the following:

MBLB
MB9A

MCDB
MCDC
MCDG
MCD7
MCD8
MCD9
MCE+
MCE0
MCE9
MCVO
MCVS
MEW5
ME2V
MLRP

Bear in mind that the above is in 1 cell and in-between each attribute is an - Alt Enter

Now I want to know how many cells a certain attribute is contained in e.g. "MCE+". I can do this on a one by one basis using the "Contains" Filter. However I would like to have the FULL list of my attributes and know how many times each one is mentioned.

Counting Text Characters Within A Cell

Aug 8, 2007

This should be simple, but I am struggling with finding a way to use the search or find function to identify text characters. This is my situation, I have for example a cell that contains FW023 or D1234. I need to be able to count the number of characters that are text.

i would think I would be able to do it with the search or find function, but can't figure out how to get it to just count the number of text characters with in it.

Counting Instances Of Text In A Range

Jan 13, 2014

I am trying to count the instances of a certain text in a range across 2 columns.

so lets say I have the word Dog in A1, A2, A3, A4 & B1, B2, B3, B4. I am look for the number beside each cell to say 1, 2, 3, 4 instead of summing the whole range.

I have tried the array formula of {=SUM(IF(C:D=C2,1,0))}. However this does just bring back the sum of the instances and I am clueles on how to get it to show the first instance, the second etc.

I have an Excel document that I want to count the number of rows that meet a text value in two columns.

Column B has a value of either "Open" or "Closed".

I want to count the number of rows that are "Open" "High", "Open" "Med", and "Open" "Low".

I've been studying a number of different formulas, but I can't seem to get my head wrapped around this functionality.

Counting Cells Based On Color

Jun 19, 2013

Here's a link : [URL] .....

What I would like to do is create a column that will count the number of cells in each row whose background color is not red or yellow. The yellow background color was input manually, and the red background color was input through conditional formatting.

I have a spreadsheet full of GPS locations of different pumps on different dates. Each column represents a different pump, and each row represents a different date. The cells on this sheet contain one of two things - either a set GPS coordinates or the word "Repair" and a description of the repairs done. A few days ago I went through and checked the GPS coordinates to see which pumps were where every day during the past three years, and changed the background color of each cell containing GPS coordinates determined to be off-site to yellow. I then used conditional formatting to change the background color of each cell containing the word "Repair" to red. Now I need to go through and find out how many pumps were on location, not being repaired on each day.

Here's a link to a sample workbook. Any cell containing the word "GPS" just represents the fact that there are GPS coordinates in the cell. Their format is basically "(#####, #####)".

Counting Based On Conditional Format

May 30, 2007

i have a spreadsheet which is used to keep the training records for the company it counts no of staff and their skill levels for different parts of the job, when a person moves to a different branch the skill required changes and they have a set period of time to aquire the new skill.

when the time is up the colour of the old skill is changed to a red font by a conditional format based on the date.this is then counted by a calculation so the team know how many people are to be targeted for extra training.

the problem i have is the calculation will not count conditionally formated cells, so whenever i update the sheet i have to go to each cell with red text and change the font colour manually to red, this sounds really silly and is impossible to explain to anyone who does not understand conditional formatting. i e the people who will end up using the database

what im looking for is a way to count conditionally formatted cells based on the condition being met i.e. they are showing as red font.
