I want to be able to create formulas where the output can act as the input.
For example, I tried to write a simple proof of concept script where you can convert between pounds and kilograms. So if you type in a value for pounds, it'll update the kilograms cell. And if you type in a value for kilograms - it'll update the pounds cell.
This is what I came up with:
I am having trouble creating a dynamic forumla in VBA. I used concatetnate to create a dynamic formula (below):
VB:
Sheets("Monthly Snapshot").Select
Range("L7").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
[Code]....
But - this is now the formula stored in the macro. So everytime I run the macro I get this exact same formula, not the new formula I created with the previous action. How can I get this new formula to show in the macro, or just have the macro convert the text in the cell into a formula by deleting the " ' " charcter on the front?
I have attached a spreadsheet of data that I would like to reduce.
In the workbook there is a set of data (rows 1 - 24) which are defined with random dates (row 2) and number criteria column A.
In the table below that (rows 28 to 37) I have set out how I would like to present the data. how to create an array formula that sums the above data months into the criteria of column A.
A B C
1 10 0 =B4
2 10 10
3 10 20
4 10 30
5 inputting new values -- > C1 changes it's value from =B4 to B5 as new value gets created.
How do I create an excel formula that changes itself (C1) to =B4 -- > B5 -- > B6 etc, whenever a new cell is created at B5 and 6 and so on.
I have a large spreadsheet file with numerous worksheets.
Each sheet represents one month of the year and is named Jan05, Feb05, Mar05
etc.
In the "Summary" sheet I want to automatically reference a range in the
other sheets.
For example:
In the Summary sheet column A, I have the sheet names:
Jan05
Feb05
Mar05
etc.
In column B, (let's use B5 as an example) I want a formula that reads
something like:
=B4 + Apr05!C7
This seems simple enough, but how can I write a formula that 'automatically'
enters the sheet name (i.e. "Apr05") in the formula?
The row containing the data for Apr05 is only created when that month comes
along, in order to keep the file size as small as possible at any time.
I need to create a new variable according to the formula:
Suma( Foreign_Owenrship_Plant * Number of Full Time Employees)/ Suma(All Full Time employees in the sector)!
However previosly I need to filter the firms within a sector within a country according to a three digit ISIC code. Lets say in Albania, in year 2002 in the Transport sector there are 5 groups of 3 digit ISIC codes. Once I have filtered them then I can proceed with calculating the new variable. How can I do this using programming?
I want to create a formula to make periodic automatically for the next few years. see attachment my sheet.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am looking to create a formula to get the initials of a name, where the the last name is listed first, followed by a comma.
Now, the names could be full names or initials.
So, it could be something like: Smith, John R - result would be JRSSmith, John Robert - result would be JRSSmith, John Robert Michael - result would be JRMS There were similar formulas that I found here, but these only got the last letter of the last name - in this case the following formulas would have resulted (with the above examples) in: JTS or the last example with Michael, JLS.
=UPPER(MID(A1,FIND(" ",SUBSTITUTE(A1," ",REPT(" ",2)))+1,1)&RIGHT(A1)&LEFT(A1))
=UPPER(MID(A1,FIND(" ",A1)+1,1)&RIGHT(A1)&LEFT(A1))
Note: While I am using Excel 2010, there could be users that are still using 2003.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am trying to do is create a total of only the last 90 days of entries from a list of $ amounts. Attached is an example. We are going to start keeping track of our cashiers variances but at the top of the sheet we only want to know what their last 90 days of entries equal.
This would be considered a rolling 90 days, so older variances drop off after 90 days, they would still be left on screen but would not effect the main total.
I have a very simple lookup formula (eg: ='data'!C1) that I need to copy down about 4000 rows. The difficulty is that I need to miss out 5 rows in between each paste but no matter what I try when copying it down, it throws itself out of numerical order. I have tried to type the formula manually for every row but its taking forever and is bound to go wrong at some point. I have attached a very small example to show what I mean - Imagin this example needing the formula to run down in order up to row 4000?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIm trying to come up with a password that changes daily that contains 2 constant numbers and some multiplication:
The formual would need to be like a string for example:
1 (the day * a number) 2 (the month * a number)
The numbers 1 and 2 are always the same.
I have a spreadsheet that has the month (number) in one cell.
The days are in columns A1 - A31
Everytime i try to do this in Excel, it trys to multiply every number.
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.
example:A2=IF(A1="WORD1",1.5,0 IF(A1="WORD2",3.0,0 IF(A1="WORD3",2.5,0)))
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'm working on an excel file that consists of 31 sheets one for each day of the week, the information about how much we make each day is inputted on the end of each day, i've consolidated all the sheets into 1 big sheet and now i want to create charts over the production, so what i would like is a code that searches the huge sheet for Machine name (Found in Column A and Column I) then walk 5 cells to the right and find the number of litre's made by that machine on that shift.
The different shifts are
Formiddagsskift - Morningshift
Ettermiddagskift - Eveningshift
Nattskift - Nightshift
I will include an example of the data. The data should be pasted to the "Formler" spreadsheet. It doesn't matter if you don't wanna do this i can simply do it later i just need the code to search, and go 5 cells to the right and remember which cell it is, and make sure it is in the right "Shift" ie, all the 282 machines for morningshift are summed in c7 and c10 has eveningshift and c13 has nightshift.
Quite time consuming to search through 31 days of production to find the correct machines on the correct shifts. And the data changes for each month so this would be a great asset to me.
I want to create a formula which will add 0.20 to the value of a cell if its greater then 0.
Basically i have a list of cells some of which will have a value and i want to sum this list and add 0.20 if there is a number in the cell.
I am trying to create a quoting system and basically its a list of rooms etc with the wall lengths and i am adding 0.20 to each wall to allow for excess but for example if there are no measurements in bedroom5 i dont want the 0.20 added.
I receive daily reports from the people that work for me. The files are
saved in a known location and a known naming structure (initials - date.xls)
In a summary report I CONCATENATE their initials and the date along with a
path but cannot get the INDIRECT command to recognize the text line.
I have created a table which is an index of all the worksheets. Now i would like to create a formula using the index reference. I get the right result if i concatenate but the text doesn't turn in to an excel formula.
=CONCATENATE("=";A1;"!";"D4") A1 contains the worksheet name, if the worsheetname is "A" then i would like it to return a formula that is =Sheet1!D4
I need to create a formula that will allow me to use two sheets within the same workbook. I set up a dropdown box in my B2 cell in my first worksheet. My A4 cell is where I am trying to create my formula. I am not even sure how to say what I need. My drop down is filled with numbers from 1-211. I started my formula with =IF(B2=1,Sheet2!B3) this much I can get to work. It fills in the correct information. I do not know how to get it to continue. I need B2=2,Sheet2!B4.

I'm trying to create a dynamic sum formula off of a table of data which is then used in pivot tables and pivot charts. What I would like it to do, is show me the summation of values AFTER a filter has been applied. Everything I've tried returns a sum of the entire table (includes hidden cells). Perhaps I'm searching with the wrong query terms (this not called a dynamic sum formula?)
Using slicers and pivot charts, I need my account managers to be able to look at their territories quarterly performance vs. a "fair share" of company performance during that quarter. I.e. they would select the slicer for their region, and dates (ex april, may, june) and the pivot chart would show territory performance during that time, with a second column chart series which is company total from april/may/june (my dynamic sum) divided by the 8 territories...thus giving me what should be "fair share" during that quarter. Each territory has equal Opportunity, so this would allow them to see who is over-performing and underperforming in their territories.
way of joinng the contents of cells to create a formula?
path month subdept

i've tried the concatenate and "& &" method to no avail.
a formula to create an email address. The person's name is in cell A1. The email addresses are all the last name + first initial followed by @ and the domain name. For instance, if name is John Doe, the email address would be doej@emaildomain.com.
The problem is, some of the names in the list contain middle initials, so I can't figure out a reliable way to discern the last name.
I know I can create a custom function in VBA using InStrRev to separate the last name, but if there is a way to do it using the functions already available in Excel, I'd rather do that.
Another question about pivot tables. In Excel it is possible to show different kinds of information in a pivot table like sum, total, min, max, average and so on. I want to create my own formulas in my pivots. Is this possible and if so how?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have two questions about dealing with formulas in pivot tables and how to make them dynamic. First let me give you some further background.
My database countains the following variables: Country, Company, Period, Product, Category and Sales. Out of this database i created a pivottable which sums the total sales amount for each company in every period. Further selection on country and category is possible in this pivot table. See my attached file!
I want to express the sales of each company as a percentage of the total sales in that period. For example for company A in period 1 their total sales was (929/3172) 29,3% of the total market sales. Which formula do i have to use in my pivot table to express company's market shares?
Further my pivot table can be specified more detailed by country and category. I want to be able to select on country and category in such a way that the company sales are still expressed as a percentage of the market sales. In other words how can i make my pivot table dynamic?
I need to pull information from a cell that is full of text and numbers and get it to creat a formular.

I need a temporary database. What I need to do is to transfer data from each tab to a Masterfile tab. For example. I have Jan 1, Jan 2, Jan 3 tabs I need this to automatic transfer to Masterfile tab. I know I can copy/paste this BUT I have a LOT of data's like way back to June 2013 to present so I really need a way to do this easier.
