Create a workpattern using something similiar to the Networkdays function. I want to be able to calculate how many working days are between 2 dates if the employee works a non standard Monday to Friday Week. For Example if someone works ever Mon, Tues, Wed how many working days are there for them in June.
Pre-requisite: I would consider myself to be very poor with excel, based on what I've read on this forum and found on my web-searches. I have a worksheet that has a list of data on the left going vertically, then a summary of this data going horizontally across the top. It is not arranged in such a way that transposing the data will do what I want. I am pulling the 5th word out of the title of each block of the vertical data and need to show this word on the horizontal section.
When I use this formula to pull the 5th word: =MID(MID(MID(SUBSTITUTE(A2," ","^",4),1,256), FIND("^",SUBSTITUTE(A2," ","^",4)),256),2,FIND(" ",MID(MID(SUBSTITUTE(A2," ","^",4),1,256),FIND("^",SUBSTITUTE(A2," ","^",4)),256))-2)
I need to increase A2 to A30, then A58 (up by 28 every time) in every instance in that formula. The fill handle increases the values by 1, instead of 28 (even if I do 3 or 4 instances manually) How do I do this? I've run into this problem in other scenarios, and there HAS to be a way to get around it.
I have a worksheet with 30 tabs, each tab contains a list of date in Column A, none of them are repeating, but they are found in the other tabs, what's the the best way to total (on a seperate tab) for each date? Bare bones example. Say on all 30 tabs May 25th is listed in Column A, and there is a $$ amount in Column B. I want to go to a new tab, and say what is the total $ amount for all May 25ths? I want to do this for about 5 months worth of dates so is a copy down possible?

The rota at the top gives the 3 week rotation, the table underneath is the names and which week they start on and what week.
Trying to create a table at the bottom that when I put someones name in and change the date it will populate his rota for that day/week.
I have loads of different rotation plans and need to have them all together when I enter a date.
After sorting and filtering rows with in a set range I will have several rows that are almost duplicates. This is normal and expected due to how the workbook is used. Among these rows also will be several single rows that are not duplicates. It is important that I combine any two duplicates into one row. Example:
CREATE TABLES LIKE BELOW?
ABC D E F G H I J K
1 NameA 0XX15930777PS101300PS9
2 NameA0XX15930777PS91200PS10
3 NameX1159XXP555FBX1545PS9
4 NameB0A1234P123PS101263PS9
5 NameB1A1234P123PS90512PS10
What I need is this end result:
CREATE TABLES LIKE BELOW?
ABC D E F G H I J K
1 NameA 0XX15930777PS91200PS10PS101300PS9
2 NameX1159XXP555FBX1545PS9
3 NameB1A1234P123PS90512PS10PS101263PS9
It’s important that the data in each column stay with in that same column. Also of course it needs to be on the same row with the same person (NameA and NameB). The Columns that would determine if it’s a duplicate are D and E –. I would need this to be preformed via macro or some easy way so that others will not have a hard time. It will be on a protected Shared Workbook with Excel 2003. I've enclosed a Sample. How can I sort these or accomplish this and maintain the data where it needs to be?
Each row of the spreadsheet from a6:a25 is the planned production of one cellbuilder.
From this sheet I need to produce a work schedule of tasks to be performed by date.
Detailing, batch, cellbuilder number,weather 1st or 2nd graft etc, and the date available (for picking)
I would like the option to choose a daily or weekly schedule.
Is this possible ? and how would I even start to go about it. I just can't visualise how to do it.
I'm trying to open a file and perform various tasks. This is the structure:
Dim xlApp As Object
Dim xlWb As Object
Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
xlApp.Visible = True
Set xlWb = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(BackupFile) ' backupfile evaluates to c: esting est.xls
xlWb.Worksheets(1).Activate
Debug.Print xlWb.Worksheets.Count
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In xlWb.Worksheets
Debug.Print ws.Name
ws.Activate
Next ws
I think I'm totally missing something. The above works, except for the loop. None of the names show up in my immediate window, and none of the worksheets are activated. xlWB evaluates to nothing, which is where the problem has to be...but why would my first .Activate and Debug.Print lines work? Also, If I declare xlWb as Workbook then absolutely nothing works after the file is opened.
Basically what I want to do is open the file, do a bunch of a stuff with it, then save and close it. I have this all working without creating another object, but the opening of the file is still visible to the user. Seems like turning off ScreenUpdating doesn't truly work.
Ive got a problem with a work book im working on at the moment, my company has various different documents created in excel, like a price list, cost price list & stock levels (all Independant) I have had the idea to join them all into a single shared workbook using an idea I found and modified over a year ago on this site, that had the promise of allowing multiple users to see the nessesary parts of the same document. the advantage of this being any new parts or prices or suppliers added would update all users at once. So ive got this workbook that when you open you get asked for a username & password this then hides/unhides, protects or unprotects to suit the users needs. This works great when unshared but when I share it the login box wont display
The Administrator username is jamie and the password is joshua
How do I create a date stamp in a work sheet, if lets say anything gets revised or updated the date gets updated as well?
For Example: I want to put the date stamp in A1. So when anything gets revised in the document, A1 will have the date when that document was revised.
I know how to create a text link to other cells within a work book but how can I create a button which will do the same?

i need to work out a formula for my spreadsheet which I use to work out cutting lists for timber frames. I need it to work out if the width of a job is for eg 2400mm i need to work out how many timber studs I need so the space between each stud is between 400mm and 500mm and this will need to work for a range of different sizes of frames. I have it written at the moment and it just devides the width by 400 and gives me a amount of studs but it would work much better if it could space them between 400 & 500.

I need to have a string comparison done in a macro,

Need a macro that will autofill in an email pattern from a customer list i recieve. So far i have been having to manually do it.. but when have documents over 3k entries.. ouch.
This is what i got.. hope the way i type it in makes sense

First name........Last Name ............Email Pattern
John ..................Smith ...............First name initial, last name@abc.com
John ..................Smith ...............First name initial, dot, last name@abc.com
John ..................Smith ...............First name, dot, last name@abc.com
John ..................Smith ...............First name, initial of last name@abc.com

I am working with alphanumeric data that is unorganized. Here is an example of what it looks like: ...
I am trying to come up with a formula that will distribute the numbers as shown in this diagram:
To get the value of each number divide 42,000 by the last number in the pattern. For example the fifth column from the left would be 42,000/18. That means that each number would have a value of 2,333.33. By the time you reach the half way mark, nine in that example, you should have around 21,000, and the other 21,000 should be distributed between the last half (block 10 thru 18). The formulas would have to work on all of the patterns. Can anyone think of a way to match the pattern shown? It doesn't have to be exactly the same pattern just as long as the number of blocks remains the same for each half, and they total 21,000 for each half without going over 42,000 all together. There has to be 11 rows from top to bottom.
Is it possible to change the borders/pattern of a single cell so that it looks like the image in the attached document? This may seem a strange thing to want to do, but there is a good reason! Merged cells will not suit my purpose. The pattern palette allows a cell to be filled with horizontal lines, but I need there to be just two lines (i.e. dividing a single cell into three boxes).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI made a code that automatically checks the date and then compares it to the date of the last save. If it is a new date then the colors of the tabs will randomize. It can also be done manually via a button. The problem is that I have now realized that the colors are always have the same pattern. Every day the first color is an orange color, no matter how many times I randomized yesterday...and so on. Is there a way to make the randomness not have a repeating pattern?

I'm trying to write 'user-defined' function in Excel, that doing following:
Getting two arguments: cell and 'like' pattern (_ _ , *, e.t.c).
As a result returns data that match this pattern.
For example:
1. Cell = "golf car is really comfort", pattern = "_ _ _ _" will return "golf"
2. Cell = "toyota is number one", pattern = " num*" will return "number one"
I am comparing two years' data, one on top of the other (Rows 1 and 2). For each cell in each row, I am referencing a cell from a different tab. This needs to be done with about 290 data items, so 580 rows.
When I attempt to copy the two rows down, it doesn't go in the correct order (skips a cell reference number). It looks like this:

It would save me a lot of time considering each of the 580 rows has about 30 different column with each cell referencing various things.

I have a formula such as below..
=SUMIF('MBX TO DBS'!$G$1:$G$818,"*livedb01*")
This will sum the values in G1-G818 that contain livedb01 on the "MBX TO DBS" sheet, however this is not exactly what I want.. I want the SUM function to look for the livedb01 string in G1-G818 and SUM the values in D1-D818.
So instead it would look for livedb01 text in G column and take the value from D and SUM those once the text qualifier was found in G column..
Is this possible with Excel?
I want the first 60 rows of column C to be constant meaning C1, C2, C3, C4..C59 and after 60 rows it should start again with C1, C2, C3.....C59 rather than C60, C61, C62. In other words i+1 but after 60 rows i should be reset to 1 and then again increase by 1. how can i implement these changes

I have the following series of formulas consecutively in a single column:
=IF(A3=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(2+MATCH(MIN(H3:H50),H3:H50,0),1)),"YES","NO")
=IF(A4=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(2+MATCH(MIN(H3:H50),H3:H50,0),1)),"YES","NO")
.
.
.
=IF(A50=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(2+MATCH(MIN(H3:H50),H3:H50,0),1)),"YES","NO")
=IF(A51=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(2+MATCH(MIN(H51:H98),H51:H98,0),1)),"YES","NO")
=IF(A52=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(2+MATCH(MIN(H51:H98),H51:H98,0),1)),"YES","NO")
.
.
.
Effectively, I am comparing the values in each set of 47 to determine which one is the smallest. The smallest entry will get a YES label next to it and all others will get a NO. The problem I am having is the the autofill feature is not correctly detecting the pattern, even if I manually fill in the first 49 entries (shown above). If I hilight all of the above entries and autofill one down, I get the following:
=IF(A53=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(2+MATCH(MIN(H53:H100),H53:H100,0),1)),"YES","NO")
It should be:
=IF(A53=INDIRECT(ADDRESS(2+MATCH(MIN(H51:H98),H51:H98,0),1)),"YES","NO")
Basically I need the H:H: reference to stay constant, but only for 47 cells at a time. After that, both the lower and upper bound should increase by 47. Is there any way to indicate this to Excel? Manually typing in the new formula every 47 entries isn't practical because the spreadsheet has thousands of entries. How I can accomplish this using a single formula and autofill?
