Creating Contact List With Dropdowns / Lookups For Multiple Offices
Apr 4, 2013
I've attached my .xlsx file for easier understanding.
What I want to do is segment out a contact list by "market area" and "department" and pull the corresponding data with those labels from the Contact List tab into the main tab when validated by the dropdowns.
1.) The Market Area dropdown represents different offices.
2.) The Department dropdown represents departments within each office.
What I want the user to be able to do is to select the 2 dropdowns at the top and view an entire listing of the roster of those departments based on how they are labeled on the Contact List tab. I'm still a relative newbie to vlookup/hlookup so I've tried using them and encountered issues with it returning more than one value or being difficult to fill down the next series of values, etc. I simply want it to return the entire set of employees that fit the identifying dropdowns.
I have started to create a sales order. I have three columns that I will be working with. I have three lists in a separate worksheet (worksheet 2) in the same workbook. Column A has part numbers. Column B has descriptions of the part numbers in Column A. Column C has prices for the parts in Column A.
I have created a drop down list in Worksheet 1 from the list in Column A in worksheet 2. What I want to do is somehow link column B and C to Column A so that when an item is chosen from the drop down list, the information will pull through.
I've been tasked with entering a list of contacts into our database. The list is pretty long, so I want to upload it all into our dbase by reorganizing it all into a csv file. I need fields for name, title, organization, address, phone number, etc. problem is not all contacts have info for all fields. I'm having a hell of a time getting this data into a usable format.
I am trying to create a list of residents, unit types, and unit numbers. I have 3 problems with the following code.
1) The code ignores sheets that have no value in the specified cell. I need it to return a blank cell for those in order to keep the data in each column matched with the sheet it came from.
2) The code includes data from hidden sheets. I only want to list data from unhidden sheets. And more specifically, I want to omit data from unhidden sheets that have their tab colored black.
3) The code includes data from the sheet named "Totals" which I thought I was telling it to ignore.
I typically use the following formula to create a list with no blanks, when I have a single column of data. Is there a way to do the same thing when you have multiple columns of data (side by side to make it simple) and you want to create a master list that gets rid of the blanks, and keeps them in the order they appear (by column)?
[Code] .....
For example, if I had data (with some blank cells randomly placed) in columns AM and AN, and I wanted a singe master list in one column of all non-blank cells in column AL, followed by column AM, etc.? Is there a formula to do this, or must I resort to a macro?
I have a spreadsheet with a medium-sized data set, and I need to look up values from the large table, and thin the table down to only the relevant values.
To arrive at each unique value, I will have to match 3 input cells to the first 3 cells of the data table, then copy values from across that specific line to the appropriate cells of my smaller table. I really don't need to sum or do any math in this step, its just a copy from the master table to the smaller table, the math will come later.
I think I'm attaching the file (remember-first post) so hopefully it will help with what I'm trying to accomplish. Hopefully this isn't a big deal, but I've been pulling my hair out on this all day and I just can't find a solution anywhere that really matches up to this.
On sheet1 I have a column with multiple names. I need a function that can look up all those names from column B of sheet2, and then count the occurance of a value in column H of sheet2. Here's the example:
Sheet1 (note that some rows are blank, and some names may appear >1 time):
Helen Back
Cyndi Lou Who
Cyndi Lou Who
Sam Spade
Sheet2 (names only appear once): col Bcol H Cyndi Lou WhoR2 Dan DangerR1 Dou LuvaR3 Hal BrookR2 Helen BackR1 Joe MamaR2 Lou DuvaR2 Mai TaiR2 Roberta FlackR3 Ron PopeilR2 Sam SpadeR2 Will NotR2 Yodan/a
I need a formula that can do lookup sheet1's names in col B of sheet2, then give me a count of all values "<>R1" in col H. If names are repeated in sheet1, I do want to include the multiple occurences in my count.
I've finally figured out the correct code to allow multiple selections from one of my drop down lists. Now, when I try selecting an item from a separate list (which I only want to be able to choose one thing), it's accepting multiple items. How do I have both working properly?
This is the code I have for my multiple selection list (which is only in column M):
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim rngDV As Range Dim oldVal As String Dim newVal As String If Target.Count > 1 Then GoTo exitHandler On Error Resume Next
The sheet has a price list (I attached the sheet). its a width x height(drop) format. If width or height <= minimum width/height then use the minimum listed. if width or height > minimum <=maximum then lookup in table next heightest value. here is the complication. any oversized items are priced as roundup((size -biggest size) / (biggest - second biggest size),0) * ( price of biggest-price of second biggest). so if my widths are
I am looking for creating a dynamic meeting log/calendar for my team. There's a couple of elements to my questions below:
I have a log with columns such as "Meeting Date", "Client", "Attendee" and have also set up month calendars on separate tabs which automatically update the dates according to a "Year" toggle using Janoffset, Feboffset, etc.
What I would like to do is have these calendars automatically populate a cell beneath each date with any meetings on that day. The client name and then a space then the attendee in brackets would be sufficient and with each meeting having its own line in the cell).
I have gotten a Vlookup working but have run into two snags: 1) where there is more than one meeting on a single day 2) I can only return one piece of information in the cell or otherwise have it blank, I can't have the client name AND attendee.
Is there any way to lookup all of that information in the one cell or is this just a pipe dream?
I have attached my workbook which contains my workings so far and in the first cell of Jan shown the "ideal" format. I'd like the data in.
I'm having is with different Standards there are different names for the beam sizes - so i need validation in a single cell over mulitple tables. Also i then need to perform the lookup function ( or maybe this isn't the correct way) over the mulitple tables.
The attached spreadsheet will illustrate this better. I am not too familiar with the advanced excel functions, but should be able to easily grasp these with an example or some guidance.
The easiest way I can describe the scenario I am trying to create, is to use a company list of personnel (my index) and to generate a time-sheet workbook per person based on a pre-populated template. This time-sheet is saved as the persons name and has the persons name entered into cell D:10
I have a workbook which contains two worksheets;
1) An Index sheet which contains a list of names that I wish to use in Q16 downwards (note the length of this list will vary each time I run this)
2) A "template" sheet which I wish to duplicate in new workbooks
3) A second "data" sheet that I wish to copy across in new workbooks
I need a macro that will take the "template" and "data" sheets and copy it into a new workbook, renaming each new workbook to each name in my Index sheet. I also want that same Name to be copied into cell reference D:10 of the "template" each time.
The end result is that I should have a series of new files generated and saved which are named the same as the Index list, with both the "Template" sheet and the "Data" sheet present, with the cell D:10 pre-populated with the Name provided in the "Template" sheet.
I am looking to create a spreadsheet wherein the user can choose multiple drop downs in sequence and then have it output each choice to a template or empty space within the spreadsheet.
For example, lets say column 1 said what is your favourite colour and had a dropdown with two choices red and green. Column 2 says "favourite place" and had a drop down with two choices "London and USA". Then once the user chooses an answer in each column it would output these choices to notepad or a large space within the spreedsheet.
In this example it would output:
"Red London"
if the first two answers were chosen from each column. Obviously it would be a much larger scale than the simple example above.
I'm trying to build a IF formula in column F, to use one of five different Vlookups based on cell content of D2 on down. I can't seem to figure this one out..
I have 6 worksheets in my file. In sheets 1-5, column A2:A26 list people's names. Some people's names appears on more than one sheet. Not all cells are populated with a value.
ex. SHEET1 COLUMNA Bill
[Code]....
My attempt was... =INDEX('Week1:Week5-!$A$2:$A$26,MATCH(0,COUNTIF($A$1:A1,"Week1:Week5"!$A$2:$A$26),0))
where the sheets were Week1-Week5 and the values on each sheet was A2:A26. But I think there's an issue with Excel being able to 3D reference for these types of functions.
I am trying to create a simple user interface type thing so that someone is able to select from drop down lists someones information, such as whether they are male or female, aged between 19-35 or 35-67, whether they are studying in a business area, legal or construction etc (there are 6 variables in total), This will then give the probability of success of the person passing this course based on probabilities which I have already worked out. I have worked out how to do the first stage of creating a drop down list showing alternative choices with Sex, Age etc in the data validation options, however:
There are 517 possible combinations, as in Male aged 19 to 35 studying Business (with other variables) or Male aged 19 to 35 studying Law (+ other variables) etc etc etc each with their own probability of success. Due to the long nature of writing out Male1935BusinessNorthWestWhiteBritishCollegeBrown I have rewritten it so it appears in the excel file as M1935BNWWBCB, which obviously wouldn't make any sense to someone if they had to select M 1935 B NW WB CB from drop down lists.
Along side the M1935BNWWBCB there is the probability of success specific to that type of person. So for example I could would have: M 60% M1935 64% M1935B 35%....
Sheet 1 has the following columns on it, with the following possible values. People (Dropdown with value between 1 and 8) Modifier 1 (Dropdown with Text 1, Text 2, Text 3) Modifier 2 (Dropdown with Text 1, Text 2, Text 3) Modifier 3 (Dropdown with Text 1, Text 2, Text 3) Modifier 4 (Dropdown with Text 1, Text 2, Text 3) Result
Sheet 2 Contains a set of values (Distance) that correspond to the value of the People dropdown (ie. People 1 = Distance 5, People 2 = Distance 6 and a table that looks like the following:
Mod 1 Mod 2 Mod 3 Mod 4
Text 1 0 0 0 0
Text 2 2 0.5 0.25 0.25
Text 3 7 1.75 0.875 0.875
What I want to happen is that the Result field value on table one is the result of:
On sheet on I select People = 2, Modifier 1 = Text 3, Modifier 2 = Text 1, Modifier 3 = Text 1, Modifier 4 = Text 1 which I want to result in the following formula:
6*(7 + 0 + 0 + 0)
This might be exceedingly simple, but I just cannot wrap my head around how to do it.
I need to establish a method of interleating multiple dropdowns or Form Control boxes. The purpose is to select one item and have a selection of multiple items associated with the selected item. Example:
Computer training dropdown box 1 offers selections of word, excel, powerpoint, ... If selection is Word, then dropdown box#2 offers advanced in room #15, Intermediate in room #16, Beginning in room #17. If Box 1 selection is excel box 2 selections would be different.
i downloaded the beta version of the office 2007 for testing. can i install this version alongside my existing office 2003 version. i want to have the 2 versions installed on my computer so that i can choose between the versions when opening a file.
The analysis basically has 2 data components to it: The 1st part, is a basic transaction list of shopping items bought through the year. Each transaction's shopping item also has the quantity of that item purchased at that time.
The 2nd part, is a pricing sheet for all the different types of shopping items. The pricing sheet has different prices for different quantities at which the item is purchased.
What I am trying to do is to find the relevant price for shopping item, which depends on not only what the item is, but also the quantity. In point form, it should follow the logic below:
1) Identify the item in the shopping list (worksheet 1) from the list of prices (worksheet 2)
2) Find quantity in the prices worksheet that is closest to the quantity in the shopping list (i.e. where the difference between the quantity on transaction list and the quantity on the pricing sheet is the least)
3) Pull the price for this "closest quantity"
I have uploaded a worksheet showing the structure of that data. [url]
Is there some VB code I need to do this, or can it just be a few simple formulas?
I'm creating a spreadsheet to keep track of my costs of production in an online game. Within the game there are a range of spawned resources that appear for only a short time before being unobtainable these resources have specific types that is shared between multiple spawns of the resource but each resource spawn has a unique name.
My first worksheet lists all the resources and their various qualities and the later worksheets are meant to allow me to choose from a list resources matching the requirements of the item I'm looking to craft. The example i have shown in the second picture requires Tatooinian Fiberplast and Lokian Wild Wheat to craft so in the Chosen Resource column I would like to have a drop down list allowing me to select the named resource type i would like to use - for Tatooinian Fiberplast the only thing on the list should be Omnitwixi and for the Wild Wheat it should show Fizi and Krad

I am aware there are people with more pressing problems than computer games and as such
I would like to be able to compare the "standards" in Column A with the Assessment status in Column B and the Assessment period in Column C in order to generate a compact list in another workbook (ideally) or tab (if not). A list might typically contain all the standards that have been M (mastered) during a given Assessment period. I realize that filters would achieve this to a large extent but I was hoping to automatically populate another worksheet or tab.
I am looking for a Macro that would randomly select 20 items from my inventory list for performing spot checks. Column F of Active Coil Log tab is where the data would need to pull from, however I would like all data in the row to go along with it. I've explored the RAND functions, but they don't seem to be the right fit .
I have a workbook which I use for invoicing customers. Sheet one is the inovice template. Sheet two is the contact details of all my clients (i.e. column headings are Name, Address 1, Address 2, Town/City etc.).
In the invoice sheet I would like to be able to select the name of the client from a dropdown so that it automatically fills in the address into the other cells of the invoice.
I am putting together a master sheet of 1000s of contacts for colleagues taken from various sources (outlook contact download, linked in download, inputted business cards etc). I have noticed that everyone has their own way of using outlook and the data (normally addresses and phone numbers) appear in different columns and formats. I have used the function concatenate to add zeros back to numbers if i have had to use .csv as the download output, but I have the issue of mobile numbers in the wrong columns (i.e. someone has put a mobile number as the business phone). Is there a way of creating a new column and then applying a logic formula of some kind saying if a number starts with 07 then it appears in the new column, but if it doesnt then to ignore it therefore separating the mobile numbers so I can add to the correct column?
I have a spreadsheet with names and phone numbers. I have another spreadsheet with similar- but not the same names and not in the same order- with email addresses.
I have pasted all info into one spreadsheet and alphabetised it- it looks a little like this now.... (joe bloggs being an example name)
joe bloggs telephone no joe bloggs email
Is there a way i can easily merge these two rows keeping the name the same? Otherwise it will take FOREVER!!
