Dec 3, 2012
I have a requirement where I have to count number of "-" character in particular row
I am using a excel database for promotion records of my team....The data base works as follows. I am using countif function to calculate number of associates in specific grade for specific month. One associate is getting promoted to next level, I will add one more row with the same employee name with change in designation and diff start and end date. I want to generate report for monthly promotions, The report should depict number of promotions in each month. ie in Jul there is one promotion from trainee to Engg for EMP1. There are hundreds of employees, eligible for promotion in each month.

I've tried and tried and I con not get it right. In A1 I have a validation, it onlu allows to enter a 6-digit number between 100000-899999 or the same numbers with the letter I in front, that is I100000-I899999. Now I need a macro to check that cell F2 is not empty if the value in Cell A1 is above 299999. And this should also apply if there is an I in front. The function for the validation is:
=IF(AND(LEFT(A17)="I";--MID(A17;2;6)>100000;--MID(A17;2;6)<900000);OCH(A17>100000;A17<900000))
The code I have is:
If Range("A" & i).Value > "299999" Then
If Range("F" & i).Value = "" Then
MsgBox "Indicator missing on row " & i
Application.Goto .Range("F" & i)
Exit Sub
End If
End If
It works wor the nubers without the I but it demands a vlaue in F on all I numbers and I only want it for >I299999.

I have a spreadsheet with 3 coloumns. In A I enter Address, B Date, C Ward/District Area (this is a data validation list). At present I use; = SUMPRODUCT((HFRA!B4:B2000>=Summary!B1)*(HFRA!B4:B2000<=Summary!B2)). Summary B1 and B2 are dates to search between e.g 1/01/07 and 31/01/07. The above formula only counts the date enteries between B1 and B2.
I would like to change this so that it still checks that the date still falls between B1 and B2 but is adds together the numbers entered in coloum A. So coloumn A would become number of completed actions not an address.

I received a request from a coworker regarding custom formatting some numbers in his spreadsheet. Those numbers are serial numbers of 20 characters long. Sometimes in my files I use this custom number formatting ###0 and its enough for the data I handle. But when I tried to use it in his spreadsheet, the following shows:
8456891070060510000
The cell must look like this: 08456891070060510302
The reason to have it like this is due to a Delivery Program requirement to deliver Set-top Units for repair. The Delivery Program do not recognize other format than the above. My coworker takes the data from a spreadsheet, and the spreadsheet needs a custom number format to display the correct number.
find a custom number format to be able to display as my coworker need it??

I am trying to write a small bit of VBA code, so that I can record the row and column of the active cell. I have got it working when I CHANGE the value of the cell, but I need to get the code to fire off when I ENTER the cell.
The code section is below:-
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal target As Range)
'Store the row and column into G1 and G2 for the drop down loading
Call RowNum(target)
End Sub
[Code]....
how I can do this, as I cannot find reference to a Worksheet_Enter function ?

Upon workbook open I have specified that I need a specific sheet & cell selected - so that the user can start typing as soon as the sheet is activated.
The cell is highlighted but I can not type into it unless I manually re-select it with the mouse or keyboard. Below is what i have attempted as well as a few other experiments. I even tried using the same code on sheets("ENTRY") using Private Sub Worksheet_Activate() - which works great as long as the workbook is already open but again not when freshly opening workbook -
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'====================
Sheets("ENTRY").Select
If Range("E2") "" Then
Range("F11").Select
Else
Range("E2").Select
'Range("E2").Activate
'ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "test"
End If
End Sub

After adding worksheets, data to ranges, etc. I want to step through each worksheet and "Select" or "Activate" a specific cell (Mainly to clear all the range selections).
My code does the job except the second to last part of cell selection/activation.

I am trying to see if it is even possible to have data validation applied to a specified range of cells, but if the value of cell 'B3' is '1' then the data validation will not run on the other cells (H4:G7)

I'm trying to determine if the last character of a cell is a number or not a number. So in a cell I may have a string like:
ZXC123
or
ZXC123A
If the last character is not a number I want the letter returned. So I thought I could use a formula like: =IF(NOT(ISNUMBER(RIGHT(D88,1))), RIGHT(D88,1),""). However for the string ZXC123 it still returns '3' so anyone have any ideas how I can do this?

I've tried everything I know (which isnt that much to be honest. lol). Ive tried the frequency formula but that doesn't work the way I want it - I think its probably the wrong formula to use. I've also tried a pivot table but they always vex me. If a pivot table IS the way to go, could someone talk me through it step by step? (*the wizard is just as confusing as doing it yourself I find) ....

I have a spreadsheet for tracking jobs. Most everything is based off of week # rather than date. I am trying to get the stats page of the workbook to tally the total number of late jobs per week.The current week is taken care of because there is a function that automatically displays on time yes or no and I just set it to count the yeses or nos.The problem I am having is for past weeks.
I tried- =COUNTIF(Table2[On-time],"No"+(CountIF(Table2[Week # Hidden],"<Weeknum(Now())" but that doesn't work. I also tried isolating the < like this. =COUNTIF(Table2[On-time],"No"+(CountIF(Table2[Week # Hidden],"<"Weeknum(Now()) and that did not work either.
------ UPDATE
In response to using CountIFS I have also tried-
=COUNTIFS(Table2[On-time],"NO",Table2[Due Week '# Hidden],"<Weeknum(Now())") this just returns a zero value even when I have a late job listed three weeks ago.

I have a number of entries in column A.
The format is:
A1 B680192 Middle School
A2 Office Building Project
and so on;
I want to test if char.s 2 through 7 are numbers.
I can seperate one char at a time and use CODE function to check if the result is between 48 and 57.
I know how to split all six char.s at a time e.g. 680192, but I don't know how to test to see if it is a number?
ISNUMBER function doesn't work.
If I can do it with excel function, it would be better. If VBA has to be used, so be it.

I have a spreadsheet which I automatically generate using VBA. One of the columns lists account numbers. After the macro is complete, the account numbers are non-numeric and left justified. However if I select one of the account numbers by clicking on its cell, and then edit the account number in the formula window, it changes the cells property to numeric and right-justifies the cell.

Cell B23:687968307=ISTEXT(MID(RIGHT(B23,3),1,1))TRUE
Cell B24:C8796B07=ISTEXT(MID(RIGHT(B24,3),1,1))TRUE
I'm trying to test whether the third last character (3 and B) is a text or not.
As you can see, the reslts are both TRUE, but I'm expecting to see that the first one should be FALSE, as '3' is a number right?
Likewise, if I replace the formula with ISNUMBER instead of ISTEXT, the results are both FALSE, but shouldn't the first one be TRUE, again, because the '3' is a number?
Have I missed something in the formula, or is there a better way of expressing this formula?

Ex.
if i have value of 7, should be converted to a character of "*", the output will be 7 times of "*" (*******)
if value is 10, so it will be 10 times "*". (**********)

I have a cell range that is passed as a String to a function, and within that function I need to extract only the Column letter. If it was just 1 letter it would be simple, but it may be 2, so does anybody know of a way of testing to see if the second character is a letter or a number?

They have a list of data numbers which are yy/#####/@@@@@ (2digit year/casenumber/alphanumeric code). Where some people have typed in the code wrong (6 or more digits in case number) we want to know is there a way of doing this.
Ideally I want something that says "If 9th character is a slash then yes, if not no" or "if 9th character is a number then yes, if not, no".
Example of data is (where we want third option highlighted as erroneous (6 not 5 numbers in middle)
09/56487/KFJT
09/42105/PLOUR3
09/002145/PLIFD
09/02145/ASDF

I have part numbers in a column that look like the numbers listed below. All numbers begin with A, so the default sort begins with the first number. I would like to sort the list using the middle three numbers denoted by the red x's in the first example. Is this possible?
A 385 XXX 0055 A 385 466 0060 A 385 466 0160 A 385 584 7024 A 387 284 0185 A 388 017 0160 A 389 260 1485 A 389 262 0293 A 389 262 4935 A 389 262 9134 A 389 267 2819 A 389 267 3319 A 393 328 0065 A 398 267 3319 A 403 990 0210 A 403 997 0620 A 404 260 0074

I have an Excel file that quiries Google for driving distance (someone helped me with this.) It returns the correct miles but has some 'extra' characters. Example:
31.1&nb or 886&nbs
So the answer always has &nbs after the mileage. I tried the following function which works when there is a decimal but fails when there is not. =REPLACE(MID(E2,1,SEARCH("&",E2,1)-1),SEARCH(".",E2,1),1,","). Can this be done with a function or must it be VB script? Which is fine if it is.

Pretty sure this has been asked but have searched the forum to no avail, but I need to extract the numbers from a value which has a letter on the end.
eg. 1000x I need to get out the 1000
or 2p I need the 2
I have sooooo many values ranging in numbers of digits, so just basic left(A1,2) won't work, I'm sure I've seen a search or find function but don't know how to use them!

I need to make a list of Part Numbers in quotation marks. If a number of digits of a P/N is less than 13 a number of space characters has to be added to make the string 13 characters long.
We have example P/N:
1234567890123
12345678
123456
should become:
"1234567890123(no extra space characters should be filled-13chars)"
"12345678(5 extra space characters here)"
"123456(7 extra space characters)"
Is there a function that inputs a cerain number of a specific character ("space" in this example)?
