I have to combine multiple line items to make one representative single code but for the life of me have not been able to find a way to do it effectively. I have attached a sample file.
I'm trying to write some VBA code to do the following (don't think its possible using formulas only). In column A i have a list of codes (A1:A32) in column B i have a value (between 1 and 32 in this case, but feasibly could be any integer) I am trying to achive an output in column C which would take the code from col A and then "count up to" the value in col B;- for example "AAA" in col A, and "4" in column B would return AAA1, AAA2, AAA3, AAA4 in column C. For the next code say BBB and corresponding value, would start its sequence in the next empty cell below AAA4 in col C.
The codes in E column are what is entered in a worksheet range (user cannot see the list). Needed is to show both the two-character code in column E and the text definitions in column F in the dropdown. As data validation now works, users only see the two-character code and are not remembering what the code stands for - they need to see the definition.
Is there a way to show both the two-character code from column E along with the text in column F? When user selects, only the code would be entered in the target cell. (Is data validation the correct technique?)
I have set this problem up in closely located cells to construct the issue. In reality, the validation list is well off-screen from where the user is actually inserting the codes and there are many more codes/definitions.
I'm trying to convert various codes from one column of an excel spreadsheet into different codes in another column. I was able to accomplish this with "If" statements, however I'm only able to string together seven of these statements in one command. Is there a better way to add formulas for more than seven conversions? Below is a copy of what I've done so far with the seven converts:
In 1 cell i need a forumla to give me a starting number and take one away each time a code or codes are dislayed in a cell range. Something like this
A1 = 23 days or any number days i needed
Cell range B1:C52
every time a selected 1 or 2 letter code appears in the cell range i want A1 to subtract 1 day from the starting number, i would need it to subtract half a day if one code appears ie HD, the codes may be P, OT, HD
I have a column of data that keeps getting new information in it. what i need is a named range that i can use for a chart, first point in the named range will be the first value in the column, second point will be avg. of point 1 and 2, then 3rd point will be avg. of 1,2,3 etc.
I have a custom email creation template I am merging with another version. The problem I am having is wrapping my head around not only selecting a range that is offset from ActiveCell (column 6-9) but seeing if there is an "x" in that range which is normally blank. My previous attempts identify the "x" but adds the text every time it is found. (Each column is a flag for an email bullet and they can have all four bullets in the email where I only want the text included ONCE if they have ANY bullets included). I use the range because I do not want the text included if none of the bullets are used.
Teh StandHTML then gets used in the body of the email like other HTML items I use
The email is generated using the ActiveCell.Offset to insert special text, emails and routing and has weathered alot of changes over time.
Dim Myrange As Range Myrange = Range(ActiveCell.Offset(0, 6), ActiveCell.Offset(0, 9)).Select If Myrange = "x" Then StandHTML = StandHTML & "Important Text" End If
I'm trying to create 3 different named ranges which are of alternate cells in columns. Each column runs from row 3 to row 106 and each named range covers 5 columns. Therefore each named range needs to contain 260 cells (52 cells per column x 5 columns).
Apart from the fact that you can't deselect a sell by Ctrl+Right Clicking on it, making a selection of the relevant cells is proving impossible.
For example I carefully selected all 260 cells for my 1st named range and entered a name. However when I then go into Name Manager I see that loads of cells haven't been selected at all and instead some cells in some columns have been but with huge gaps between them. If I try to then add cells my Ctrl+Clicking on them I find that I can add some but then one of two things will happen. I'll either click on one cell, the same cell every time, that deselects everything and I have to start all over again or when I try to save the new range I get a message saying the formula is wrong.
I've also tried typing in the names of the cells manually but the same thing happens. Annoyingly I've manually created a formula with all the cells I need in Notepad but even though the option to Paste is there, it won't let me paste into the field!
Is there a limit to the number of cells you can have in a named range?
Is there way of editing the name range accurately?
Is there a better, easier way of selecting all the cells for a named range?
I have a text string concatenated from an array of about 3,500 elements. The concatenation looks something like the following:
sRange = "$A$3,$A$7,$A$8,$A$13, ..."
When I try to set a range with the said string: MyRange = Range(sRange), the system throws an error.
I've seen a few methods in help ("Union" for one) that accept up to 30 arguments. I'm unable to find anything in help that states a limit for MyRange = Range(). It appears that 30 may be the magic number for everything.
I have tried using "Union" and building the range one element at a time from the array. That works, but it's incredibly slow.
Is there any way I can pass my array as the argument directly? Something like: MyRange = Range (MyArray).
For work, I'm doing a project for Quality Control. I'm looking to create a Bar Chart (horizontal bars) with 2 "vertical" lines to indicate the range of acceptable values
Attached to this Post is a *.pdf that (hopefully) further explains what I'm looking for.
hi i am currently trying to construct a date based maintainance sheet
i will try to explain what im trying to do
in one cell date is inputted the next cell automatically adds +30 to generate next test date
what i am trying to do is get the sheet to there are 4 testers so its a 3 month cycle for each ie tester 1 jan tester 2 feb tester 3 march tester 4 april tester 1 may tester 2 june
inputed ...................... =A1+30 and date formated cell
i am trying to get the formula to tell me after the inputed date has been changed who the next tester is
i have tried using the IF command but it wont let me specify a date range ie 1 jan to 31 jan (or in the specified date codes) date range only one specific date with >= or <= which doesnt quite work properly
I have a start date, and an end date for a promotion. However, I am trying to create some unique keys for a VLOOKUP, so I can combine the data I have by day, with the data I have for promotional start/end dates.
So, simple question, if I have a start date and an end date, is there was way (either using excel or vba) to pull out all the dates within that range and display them on a spreadsheet?
For example, I have 21/01/2012 and 28/01/2012 as the start and end dates. I would want to display 21/01/2012, 22/01/2012, 23/01/2012 etc.
I am importing a text file and plotting some of its contents versus time. The file provides the end time and the step interval. I know that in Matlab you can define a set of values with the start, end, and interval, but I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do this with VBA. I have toyed with fill series, but no luck there.
Specifically, the file I'm reading in (a relay event file with voltages and currents) gives the maximum cycles as 15 and the samples per cycle as 16. Therefore, for each voltage or current sample, I need the time to show as 1/16, 2/16, 3/16, ..., all the way to 15 cycles. I have tried to manually do this and record the macro, but after I put in a few x/16s, when I try to extend the formulas down the rest of the cells, instead of continuing the trend (4/16, 5/16, 6/16, etc.), it repeats what I put in first.
I am trying to create a large range composed of smaller ranges. Some of these ranges may overlap so I want to make sure when I add cells to the range they don't already exist. I know how to make sure the same value doesn't exist in a range, but not the same cell.
I am trying to create a range with visible cells after filtering based on a criteria. But, facing some wierd problem with setting correct range with visible cells. Here is the code.
Here, xlsFilteredRange.Cells.Count returns correct values. For example, for a particular filtered criteria, if there are 6 rows, it returns 42 (6 rows * 7 columns). However, xlsFilteredRange.Rows.Count always returns 1 (header row), though there are 6 rows. How can this be fixed?
what i was wondering is if there was a way to take a list of data (only look at the letters before the "-") and make a list of it..than i column "T" use a countif formula (i can do this part just forgot to include it)
so if "MCS-69257" was added to the list in cell "C8" than in "S6" it would say "MCS" and "T6" would say "1"
I am working on a process model, which requires that the same basic procedure be carried out for each unit in the process.
One worksheet is allocated to each unit with data concerning the flow streams being passed from the previous unit and the product being linked to the next unit. Although the same procedure is therefore being followed on each sheet, the input data differs.
I currently have the code to perform the required technical operations and calculations for a single unit. This code is very much dependent on named ranges.
I want to use the same core to perform the routine-operations, but need either unique named ranges on each page or I need a way to define name that is limited to the specific worksheet on which it is located.
For example, I might have an input range for a heater and splitter, with a technical add-in in VBA performing calculations on the input for each unit. How can I use two separate instances of the name "Input" instead of "Input_Heater" and "Input_Splitter"?
I cannot find the right catagorty I need to use to word this. I know there is a formula out there. I basically have 1k numbers I need to add into Collumn A of a worksheet - the numbers are from range 34-2501 through 34-3500. How can I get excel or VBA to do this automatically?
34-2501 34-2502 34-2503 repeat til 34-3500
Also, how to make it user friendly to create the same process over and over with a different set of numbers... meaning make it so I onlt have to input the range or numbers over and over. if it is an easy task I do this allot
I am attempting to obtain the last non-empty row in a column of a spreadsheet by using the following formula
=SUMPRODUCT(MAX((A:A<>"")*(ROW(A:A))))
This works fine.
However, I'd like to make it more dynamic and be able to obtain a usable column reference (i.e., the A:A portion of the formula) from a named range (single cell).
I need to do stats for each month within a set of data. Ie take the min for all data in the month of Jan only and repeat for all other months etc. Is there some way I can set up a Min function to only consider the data belonging to jan for example and have it change and only consider Feb, then march.. etc Seems like it would be easy to just do this manually but there is a large timeframe over which data was collected so would take forever.
how do we do something like Range("A1:B2") using an index for the cells. For example Range(R[0]C[0]:R[i]C[j]) which doesn't work. I know about Cells(i,j), but that only returns a range object of a single cell.
I'm only moderately skilled with Excel, and I work primarily with the logical, not mathematical functions. That being said, I'd like to know if there is a good method for Excel to solve this problem. I've been working at it in a rather sloppy manner until I began researching some other approaches.
The Problem(s):
I am developing a site that teaches the grammar of modern Chinese at the same time that it builds vocabulary by frequency. There are a couple of issues with this: Chinese word corpi are virtually nonexistent, and where existent, sloppy. Chinese character corpi are more available and somewhat more reliable. The difference between a word and a character in Chinese can be a bit hazy, but the easiest way to put it is that not all characters stand alone as word and that most words are two to three characters in length.
Therefore, using data from the character corpus and a few thorough dictionaries, I created a word list in Excel that has the words and definitions in separate columns.
I have likewise found a character corpus that I have appropriately organized by ranking and other relevant data. The characters occupy a column.
Here's the basic logical function I am trying to create in separate columns, which are organized by frequency of the character:
=IF(AND(OR(contains any characters in the character corpus from frequency x to frequency y),NOT(OR(contains any characters in the character corpus from frequency y+1 to z)),Word Column,"")
Now, I know now that I have a good workaround, so I can shorten this to...
=IF(NOT(OR(contains any characters in the character corpus from frequency y+1 to z)),Word Column,"")
The problem is that I don't see any effective means of efficiently coding the OR condition!
Is there some magic that can be done so that I can use the ISNUMBER(SEARCH(characters,word cell) function for multiple characters?
I definitely don't want to go... =IF(NOT(OR(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("‹…",word cell)),ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Ž®",same word cell),...),Word Column,"") for thousands upon thousands of characters!
Is there a way for me to select a range of values within the SEARCH() function to allow this kind of programming?
I also had a look at the filters, but found myself facing the same problem.
I'm trying to create a VBA macro that will compare two worksheets. If an item has "moved" then I want to draw an arrow on the new worksheet of where (the cell range) it was on the previous worksheet, to where it is now. Using Record Macro, I've noticed the coding looks like: ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddLine(276#, 60.75, 309.75, 60.75).Select
How do I make sense of these numerical values? Is there a way to input cell ranges? Is there anything besides drawing arrows I can represent this phyiscally? (as opposed to with values)
