Creating A Table From Various Results Of Data Validation

Nov 17, 2006

See the attached:

1/ Need to be able to populate a table with the following data (or as illustrated in ' Sheet 1'.

Company Name, Year, Manufacturing, Non-Manufacturing

This data will need to come from the lists for each of the variables as opposed to from the table, as this will be hidden from the user. Also, more company details will be added over time.

Creating Validation List From Table Column Based On Data In Another Column

Dec 11, 2013

If I have a table as noted below with the following assumptions:

- this table will likely grow
- the 'Include' column data will change based on external criteria/formulas, so the 'Include' column will not be sorted.
- Macros aren't an option as this sheet needs to be macro free.

A
B
C
1
Item
Calories
Include

[Code]...

How do I build a formula that I can place in a data validation drop down to only include 'Item's that have Yes indicated in the 'Include' column?

I've been researching this and found answers if the 'Include' column was sorted via offset, but I haven't found any to sift through when unsorted. I feel like there is a simple answer to this that I am missing. Here is the sheet --> ExampleSheet.xlsx

(VBA) Controlling Search Results Using Data Validation

Feb 26, 2014

On my attached example (ProjectDBTrial.xls) I have a number of sheets. Data containing all the relevant project data, Search which functions similarly to a MS Access Query (this is where the coding is) and the other relevant sheet is Portfolio_Dash which will end up being dashboard.

My aim is to allow the Search function to be controlled from the Portfolio_Dash Sheet. For example - if the user were on the Dashboard and he chose the project "Magnus". This would then select Magnus in the Search/Query, populate all the Magnus data in the search and then the Dashboard would take the information straight from the Seach Sheet.

At the moment the code (seen below) requires me to select the project on the search sheet drop down. Also a bit of a bug is that as soon as I click off the Search sheet and back on it resets.

Any way to control the search function from the Portfolio_Dash sheet. The reason I cannot Make the Porfolio dash sheet the query is it has to have a very specific graphical template applied that will not work well with the function built in.

CODE:
Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
[c3] = "Type your search here."
[c3].Select
End Sub
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

[Code] .........

Creating A Data Validation List

Feb 19, 2010

I am trying to set the below table up as a validation list. I am having issues with putting it in as list as it creates a new line every time a “,” (comma) occurs. I know I can use the custom and pull the list from a table, but I can’t use this option (the reason I can’t use the table, if interested, is because the single sheet with the validation contains about ~35,000 line items that are being split up into ~200 different sheets. Each sheet is then sent as a separate email…the problem with using the table is that it would on a different spreadsheet to begin with. The email only sends one sheet. As such, it would no longer be able to reference the table).

A - Less than $25,000
B - Between $25,000 and $49,999
C - Between $50,000 and $99,999
D - Between $100,000 and $249,999
E - Between $250,000 and $499,999
F - Between $500,000 and $999,999
G - Over $1,000,000

Data Table: Incorrect Results Inside Table

Feb 22, 2007

I did a data table yesterday and it worked. I tried again today and the results are incorrect. They are coming out as a constant (the same result as the original formula). Has anyone had this happen before and figured out how to fix? My spreadsheet is fairly complex. Does the data table formula need to refer to the "base" cells? For example, if the formula refers to cell F15, but in F15 the formula is +C15, does my data table formula need to use C15?

I have a list of values (say a, b, c, d, e) and creating a drop down menu with these values in say A1. Say I chose 'c'. Now in cell A2 I want to be able to choose from the same list without being able to choose 'c' again. In cell A3 I want to be able to choose from the same list without being able to choose the values lalready chosen in A1 and A2. and so on.

Creating Monthly Data Table From Weekly Data Table

Jun 1, 2009

I have a table of data which represents data in different categories by week.

My ultimate goal is to have another table representing the data for each month - for instance - for each of the categories the data for :

06/04/2009
13/04/2009
20/04/2009
27/04/2009

is summed to make the data for the month of April.

The way I'm doing this at the moment is very long-winded

I'm using a whole new table - the size of the original weekly one - for each month. A calculation decides whether to effectively leave a cell blank or insert the appropriate data based on a date being within a particular range.

So in each "month table" there is the same list of week values:

06/04/2009
13/04/2009
20/04/2009
27/04/2009
04/05/2009
11/05/2009
etc.

but for each "month table" only the cells adjacent to the dates within the relevant month will return actual numerical values within them

This is an example of the forumula I am using in these tables:
=IF(AND(($AD7>=MIN($AE$5,$AE$6)),$AD7<=MAX($AE$5,$AE$6)),$C7,"NA()")

Then a master table sums the totals for each month.

I want to be able to keep this table but get rid of the ones for every month as the sheet is getting unwieldy!

I have tried several times to attach the sheet for clarity but each time upon trying to "Submit New Thread " I am getting page not found errors - the sheet is only 133KB and I have tried zipping and sending also - I can't make it any smaller.

Creating A Data Form With Data Validation

Sep 15, 2006

I have limited ability with Excel, and I'm trying to create a database using the Data/Form menu choices. My problem is I only want specific data in two of the 20 or so fields. When I use Data/ Validation and direct data entry, I get exactly what I want, EXCEPT that the choices don't come up when I use the Data/Form. Users can enter anything they want, which defeats the purpose. I tried to build a user form to use for data entry, but I don't know how to get it to add items to a database or lookup items like the data/form process does. I also want to add a few macro buttons to the form to do other things.

I am pretty sure of a few things: 1) This should be pretty simple. Anyone knowing VBA would probably know how to do this in minutes. I found some code that did a simliar function, but couldn't interpret it to fit my needs, which brings me to 2) I'll never use VBA or complicated macros again. I don't have the need for them. This is just an isolated incident. Therefore, signing up for a class would be useless to me. I tried to locate some advanced Excel/VBA classes, hoping to find an instructor or even a student who would welcome a simple challenge, but there are none available.

Creating Cascading Data Validation Lists / Comboboxes Without Named Ranges?

Jul 28, 2014

Is there a way to add cascading lists (from data validation or form/activex controls) to my excel spreadsheet WITHOUT using named ranges? Maybe structured references?

I need to avoid the named ranges because it will cause my workbook to have duplicate named range titles which I cannot avoid.

As a general example my issue arises because I have something like this where the titles are the same but they map to slightly different data. These also have to be cascading because the titles align to another list which I do not show in the example. I also considered using pivot tables, but the issue there is that the data validation lists repeat in the same worksheet. So I would have 3 cascading lists in row1 dependent on each other, but the same 3 lists in row2 dependent on row2 but not the previous row.

[Code] .....

Data Validation - Creating Subset Choices Based On Adjacent Column Choice

Oct 27, 2013

I am limiting choices in a certain cell to a list via data validation (using data validation, allow - list and pointing to the source). I want to limit the next set of choices in the next column (in this example in Column C) for the user based on the choice made in the adjoining cell. For example to keep it simple I will use the following: if the user selected "Fruit" in B1, then the options in C1 would only show "Oranges","Apples", "Pears". If however the user selected "Veg" it would only show "Cucumber", "Lettuce", "Spinach", "Radishes" in the drop down in column C. I can put a prefix in front of the column C data validation list if that is needed to narrow down e.g. FR-oranges, FR-apples etc.

A B C
1 Fruit Oranges
2 Veg Lettuce
3

Data Validation source for Column B (H2:H4)
Fruit
Veg
Nuts

Data Validation for Column C: (I2:I10)
Oranges
Apples
Pears
Cucumber
Lettuce
Spinach
Radishes
Almonds
Peanuts

Creating Dynamic List Of Data From Expanding Table Of Data?

Feb 13, 2013

I need to create a dynamic list from a table of data.

I have performance data for 110 different pumps. Data points are generated every hour, and the table is updated with new data periodically. I want to automate the population of a list of 6 different pumps, and specify the date range populated. To put it another way: I want to place data from Pumps 1 through 6 for all of November into Columns A through F. Then I want to clear that data, and show data for Pumps 105-110 for last week in those same Columns.

One of the main goals of doing this -- other than quickly narrowing a field of data -- is being able to quickly chart this data on a scatter plot with a custom format. The pumps are grouped together by region, and individual pumps have specific purposes. So I need to quickly generate graphs with a series' color scheme or formatting that is consistent and logical between different pumping regions.

I haven't been able to make pivot table work because of the graphing issue, and also because of the way it handles data points and presents data. I would like to make this work with excel functions and maybe some filtering, but I'm not opposed to figuring out a VB script if you think that's what I should use.

Creating Table From Data From Several Other Tables

Jan 10, 2014

My family owns a Fast Casual Middle Eastern/ Mediterranean Restaurant. I'm taking charge of making it as profitable as can be! Our plates are different combinations of kebabs, rice, Falafels, Gyros, salad, platters. So theirs tons of combinations.

I am Dead serious about knowing REAL plate costs:

I spent days entering price data, weighing meat, produce, calculating usable yields. I then built "component builders" using data validation drop-downs, and Index + Match functions to construct the costs of the recipe items,standard base items and side items. So I now know How much a skewer of Marinated Kebab Costs me, and all the Components that go into building a plate.

I've now built a "Plate Builder" (See Pic) to create the EVERY combination available at our restaurant. So when I'm done filling in all the builders, I'll have a whole lot of tables. I'd like to pull the name and plate cost from each table and create a big table organized by whether its eat in or take out. How do I do it.

TL;DR: Need to create a table that pulls data from several other tables....

Data Validation From Table (Non-VB)

Aug 24, 2009

I'm building a workbook that has a tab for each department (sales, admin, tech, etc.) w/i a project. I also have an inputs and instructions tab where I have all of my lists and background info hidden.

Essentially, on each tab, the user will build a team for the project using drop down lists. The lists reference data on the inputs tab. This data includes a list of all of the titles in the company, as well as which department they belong to. I want the validation to be structured such that the sales tab drop downs only see sales titles, admin only sees admin titles, etc. I also need it to be dynamic in its drop down inclusions so that when I add/subtract titles, I don't have to reset the validation for new cell references. Below is an example of the what the reference data looks like.

Input Tab:

Col A --- Col B
Dept --- Title
Sales --- Rep
Sales --- Sr. Rep
Admin --- VP
Admin --- SVP
Sales --- Closer
Tech --- Analyst
Tech --- Developer

Creating Correct Pivot Table Data Fields In VBA?

Aug 1, 2012

Basically I've jumped straight in and have tried to recreate a report I need to produce which requires a pivot table. I have managed to create the code I need to produce a pivot table in a new sheet with all of the headers available for analysis. Where I'm struggling is in getting the pivot to show the datafields correctly.

The list that I am creating the pivot from has about 30 headers. 20 or so are analysis fields with the remainder being various figures; monthly plan, monthly actual, monthly variance etc..

The pivot table I need to create needs all analysis fields available to the end user for manipulation, which I have managed to do. I have created rows for sales areas, also with no problem. It also needs the above plan, actual and variance fields in columns and as datafields. This is where I'm having trouble. When I create the pivot manually it ends up with 1 row and 3 separate columns with summed data in each. I have checked the VBA code, copied it and used it again. The pivot table comes out with 1 row but with the data fields stacked one on top of each other. Any minor alterations that I can think of, (for example adding a position = 1, position = 2 etc.), either creates a chaotic looking sheet or an error.

I've checked various posts on pivot tables but am having trouble understanding the way in which I can correct this. Is there a straightforward command that I'm missing? Do I need to start declaring variables for pivot items?

Pivot Table In Place Of Data Validation?

Jun 5, 2014

I'm trying to create a table with drop down options for each cell (a different set of options for each column). Normally I'd use data validation, but I need to use Excel Services with this document, and that doesn't support data validation. I've seen mentions of using pivot tables to accomplish the same thing, but I can't find an example that works for my situation. I have eight or so column headers, and need a fairly large number of rows, all with the dropdown option. Is there a way to do this?

Data Validation List Based On A Table That Can Change?

Jan 11, 2013

I am building an Excel file that will be used to track information and at the core of it all is a list of people from different offices where the number of people per office can change and/or a person leaves the company and is replaced by another. I'll simply:

Column A Column B
Office Employee
Hamilton Emp 1
Hamilton Emp 2
Hamilton Emp 3
Toronto Emp 4
Toronto Emp 5
Toronto Emp 6
Toronto Emp 7
Toronto Emp 8
Waterloo Emp 9
Waterloo Emp 10

This will be all on Worksheet 'Info'. I have a Worksheet for each Office and named them accordingly. On each worksheet I want to use Data Validation on a column, we will call it 'ChosenOne', set it as 'List' and have the Source pull all the employee names that belong to that office and use them as a selection

ex: Hamilton Worksheet, 'ChosenOne' would show Emp 1, Emp 2, and Emp 3 in the list.

If Emp 3 changed offices to Waterloo 6 months from now I would like to change A4 from Hamilton to Waterloo and the formula would not have to be changed and the next time someone selects 'ChosenOne' it would only show Emp 1 and Emp 2.

Of course this means on the Waterloo Worksheet, 'ChosenOne' would show Emp 3, Emp 9, Emp 10 now.

So basically I am trying to not specify a specific named range for each office and am hoping there is a way to poll information from a Table (or any other tool that can simplify this).

I would be ok with something like:

Column A Column B
Office Employee
Hamilton Emp 1, Emp2, Emp 3
Toronto Emp 4, Emp 5, Emp 6, Emp 7, Emp 8
Waterloo Emp 9, Emp 10

and just move Emp 3 from B2 to B4 but I don't know if a list can be created from multiple items in a single cell seperated by a , or ; or :.
