Create A Formula Where Using Different Texts To Display A Value
Jan 11, 2010
I would like to create a formula that allows the destination cell display a number depending on a word that is typed in the source cell. The source cell and the destinating cell will remain the same two cells.
example:A2=IF(A1="WORD1",1.5,0)
If i type WORD1 in A1 (source cell) then A2 (destination cell) will display 1.5, but how do i make this formula work for a multiple of different words.
this formula doesn't work, but is basically what i am looking for the formula to do - WORD1 displays 1.5, WORD2 displays 3.0, WORD3 displays 2.5 etc where the source cell and the destinating cell remain the same two cells, it is just the word and its value that change.
I have this formula =TEXT(inventory!I2,"mmm-yyyy") which takes the date from another spreadsheet, but anytime that the date is missing, it susbstitutes for Jan-1900. Is there any way to revise the formula to leave the missing dates blank in the cell? For example, if the date is missing on the other worksheet, in this case, the inventory worksheet, is there any way for a blank to appear, instead of the Jan-1900? Also, anyway for this formula to spell out the month, and not just the abbreviation?
I am creating a box CBM optimizing tool at work for shipping our products internationally so that the sales department and logistics can estimate shipping costs and weights with out needing me to physically pack everything in advance. I have broken every product we sell into individual CBM's as well as the boxes that we use to ship. I have also set it up to give a break down of "boxes needed" to accommodate the approximated CBM by box size.
How to create a function that will take that info and calculate which combination of boxes will utilize the available space... In other words, how do i take my break down of the 6 box sizes available, with the "# of boxes needed" data i already have, and have it tell me which combination of boxes will utilize the maximum percentage of space, or leave the least amount of unused space based off of the cumulative CBM being shipped.
I need the VBA script in excel that will do a SQL Query, for this case I need to select a value where there are 2-3 tags and between certain period then display the result as a table in a worksheet.
Example I have a database with 3 types of tags "Tag A", "Tag B", and "Tag C", and each tag have a value with different timestamp. the database looks like this:
No. Timestamp Tags Value 1 1-Jan-2010 Tag A 18 2 1-Jan-2010 Tag C 20 3 2-Jan-2010 Tag A 20 4 3-Jan-2010 Tag B 17 5 3-Jan-2010 Tag C 19 6 4-Jan-2010 Tag B 18 7 4-Jan-2010 Tag A 20 8 5-Jan-2010 Tag A 22 9 5-Jan-2010 Tag B 18 10 5-JAn-2010 Tag C 20
And on a different sheet in the same workbook, have 45 different values to be converted:
What is required?
Knowing that using a VLOOKUP function, i can compare a value in the first cell to the list and return the desired value, i need to substitute the strings of characters with those the the list of 45 values so that i can proceed with my work.
Basically, for the 1st Cell for eg..
2232-2232-
I will need a formula to replace "2232-" by the value which a VLOOKUP function will give when comparing to the list of 45.
Result shall look like below:
20-20-
Looks simple when have the same set of characters in the cell, but for a cell which has multiple sets:
2210-22G1-45R1-45G1-20R1-20GP- It becomes difficult for me. What i need exactly is:
Formula to substitute using the vlookup function so that it performs a lookup of the value in the specified cell with the list of 45 values and returns the value (20- or 40-) to be substituted in the cell. What i need finally is a set of 20- & 40- replacing the sets of present data.
how I can build a search engine. I have attached a file with an idea about how I would like it. What I would like to have is a sheet with a search button. If the correct number is putted in this file the corresponding data should appear in the same sheet. I do not know how to make this at all!!
This is just a small file but if i know how to build it, it would concern a much bigger file and maybe even some graphs (if that is possible)
Im trying to find a formula that when a cell is empty ie this cell is linked to another cell on another worksheet and info has not been entered or is 0 then i want the cell to display the the current date ie =NOW()
I am looking for a macro to delete rows that DO NOT contain criteria. But what I could achieve so far is deleting all rows except the first word ie ACC here. My code so far is as follows
My excel sheet contains inventory of products and quantities, each is in a form of combined number followed by text without a delimeter. For example 2AWS means Two (2) of AWS.
Each cell in my excel database may contain pair of products, each is defined in the above form but the pair of products are separated with a comma.
I need to calculate the total number of each product and split in two different cells.
Upon clicking any cell in Sheet1, it will automatically filter based on cell A and B.
Sheet2
Automaticall display filtered criteria based on double click from Sheet1
For example: when I double click on C1, on Sheet2 will automatically diplay filtered data based on A1 and B1 and same thing goes to if I double clik on C2 on Sheet2 will automatically diplay filtered data based on A1 and B2.
I have an excel file with a large amount of employee data in it and want to create a search facility that will run on variable search functions and display the information on the screen
I want to be able to enter variable search functions as follows:
Employee Number; shows all information on employee Division: shows all employees in division (possible from a list of all divisions) Appraisal Eligibility : Applicable shows all the applicable employees Job Role: shows all the employees with the same job role (possibly from a drop-list of all roles)
I know its easier in Access, but all records in Excel as a legacy and don't have time to create an access database currently.
We are changing management systems here and in order to do so we need to provide the names and addresses of over 400 different people. Our current management system stores people's addresses as a whole for example; 32, Example Street, Town, County, Postcode.
I cant extract just the numbers because I only need the house number and not the postcode.
After searching several forums I thought I had solved it with this.
Cell A1 is the extracted address from current management system reading 32, Example Street, Town, County, IU13 8TY
Cell B1 is =LEFT(A1, SEARCH(" ",O15,1))
Cell C1 is =SUM(MID(0&B1,LARGE(ISNUMBER(--MID(B1,ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(B1))),1))*ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(B1))),ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(B1))))+1,1)*10^ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&LEN(B1)))/10)
That only gives me the number "3" though and I need 32.
Basically A1:A400 will be addresses as above and in cell B1:B400 I need just there house number at the start.
I have column A with Different status like Open, closed, available etc. Column B have numbers. i am looking for a formula in condition formatting for column B.
If the cell value in column B is 2 or more, the same cell should be highlighted in Green.
If the cell value in column B is 1, the same cell should be highlighted in Yellow.
If the cell value in column B is 0, the same cell should be highlighted in Amber.
If the cell value in column B is less than 0, the same cell should be highlighted in Red.
If the cell value in column A is "Available", cell in column B should be highlighted in Amber.
I have a lookup table in which names of students and the planned session dates are available.
I need to create a chart that has Student Name and Each date of month. The chart should have value of 1 wherever a match is found in the look up table.
I am wondering if combination of searching for multiple strings (student name and date ) will work somehow. The below image explains my problem
What I have: (Table1) A table with multiple columns. One column consists of cells that can contain different types of information in a non-consistent way. One thing is for sure: if a cell contains data, it will always contain a name of a person. E.g. a cell in that column could contain the following: "838374987343 based on 98989 John 990999", or "000000000john", or "William 39843984 more text and even more text"
(Table2) A separate table that contains the names of people in a column, e.g. "John", "William"
What I want:A formula that searches for the names (mentioned in Table2) in Table1 and copies this name in a new column.
Result:A new column with the copied names as content.
I have a very large database that contains names with minor differences on column A such as:
A EXCEL AMERICAN COMPANY S.A. EXCEL AMERICAN COMPANY SA. EXCEL AMERICAN COMPANY, S.A. ASSOCIATION, INDUSTRIAL ASSOCIATION INDUSTRIAL L.A. COMPANY CO LA COMPANY CO
As you can see, this makes a mess when dealing with numbers associated with them and makes analysis more difficult.
What I've been trying to figure out is how to quickly get in column B a standard name for each one, for example:
B EXCEL AMERICAN COMPANY S.A. ASSOCIATION INDUSTRIAL L.A. COMPANY CO
I was thinking of using a combination of the FIND and EXTRACT formula or maybe LEFT as well. (Maybe VB?)
I'm trying to create a dynamic msgbox that will display what data has been updated based on checkbox selections in the userform. I've named my checkboxes as Carey, Keith, and Juliet.
Ideally if only Carey's data has been updated, I'd like the msgbox to say
' Data has been Updated for: - Carey '
If Carey and Keith's data has been updated, I'd like the msgbox to say
'Data has been Updated for: - Carey - Keith '
etc.
MsgBox ("Data has been Updated for:" & vbnewline & _ If CAREY.Value =true then "- Carey" End if & vbnewline & _ If KEITH.Value =true then "- KEITH" End if & vbnewline & _ If JULIET.Value =true then "- Juliet" End if & ")
i have wordlists which i would like to enhance through texts. For that purpose i need a macro which reads a text and splitts it into words and put the words into three columns. Lets assume the column where the words are supposed to be put is columns A,C and E. The column A should contain single words containing no spaces from Text, column C should contain compound words which have one space between them and in column E those compounds which have two spaces. Now i will put my existing wordlist in column G before i start splitting texts. The macro should put only those words from text into column A,C and E which dont already exist in columns A,B,C,D,E,F and G. In Column B i will place the corrected or checked words from column A. In column D i will type the corrections and checked versions of those compunds existing in column C. And the column F will contain the compound words which are corrected and checked from Column E.
Column A--> single words splitted from text through macro (containing no spaces) Column B--> corrected and checked versions of words from column A through user Column C--> compound words containing one space splitted from text through macro (for example:"etwas möchten" or "do something") Column D-->corrected version of C through user Column E-->compound words containing two space splitted from text through macro (for example:"sich uerberzeugen lassen" or "down in dumps") Column F-->corrected E Column G--> existing dictionary wordlist through user
Signes like ".", ":",";", "/" or quotation signe itself should be seen as seperator. And the words or compounds splitted from the text should not contain these signs.
The text will be put in another sheet in the same excel file. Lets call that sheet "text". The macro should search for words through whole sheet ignoring empty cells or columns.
None of the columns should be filtered or ordered. The columns shound not be deleted as well. That way the user wont have to correct the same word each time cus the corrected as well as the original words will be there.
A thread with similar purpose was made sent by AdamDay as well, where rylo has posted a good solution already.
I need to get a general formula which if possible, automatically calculates the frequency of unique texts (no duplicates) under a particular month (January) without manually inserting the cells which is under january. If possible, the formula will also check to see if the company is either Cash or Cheque.
I have three columns; Date, Company name and Payment mode.
Date ranges from 1 jan 2010 to 31 dec 2012. Cell A2 to A234
I want to color the cells for some specific texts in RED, and some in BLUE and some in GREEN.
For Eg: I want to color the cells in RED, which contains below specific texts in a sheet. UNIX LINUX MS OFFICE POWER POINT....like this for nearly 100 specific texts.
and I want to color the cells in BLUE, which contains below texts in a sheet. JAVA .NET SQL MSDOS....like this for nearly 100 more specific texts.
If i create a rule in conditional formatting for each text,I have to create nearly 400+ rules for my task now, which is not possible.
I have a worksheet ("ALL JOBS") with huge row data and the row data will vary every day. My problem is there will be a lot of blank cells which I need to fill manually and its tacking lot of time of mine.
Code to fill these blank cells automatically with some specific texts based on the attached conditions.
I have attached the workbook for more details. FillCellsTest.xlsm‎
My excel database sheet contains inventory of products and quantities, each is defined in the form of combined number followed by text without a delimiter. For example 2AWS means Two (2) of AWS.
Each cell of the inventory field may contain up to two products, each product is identified in the above format; but the pair of products are separated with a comma.
The inventory field is occupying from cell $A$2:$A$5000; and is defined as a named range "INV_QTY" with scope within the entire workbook. I need to calculate the total inventory for each product.
I have options buttons in a userform, first is "$" the other is "€"
When somebody chooses one of them, it writes the choice to a cell in the data sheet. But when clicked on the next userform I want some of the texts automatically change the currency depending on the choice made in the previous userform.
To get cell to display results of formula I must edit (F2) and hit enter. Is there an easy way to do this in bulk rather than editing and hitting enter on hundreds of cells?
Example of formula: =IF(COUNTBLANK(K2)=1,"",CONCATENATE("*** ",K1,": ",K2," "))
