I want to show numbers on my excel spreadhseet in thousands. However, the challenge is I want to show negtive numbers in red within brackets. For instance, I have a number -104,784,089. I want to display it as (104,784) in red color. Similarly, I want to show 577,090 as 577. Is there a customer formatting I can set up in excel that do that?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a cell that contains numbers and text.
example: 1-2-3-4-5-6 or 1-22-3-44-5-6.
If the the number between the dash '-' is a single digit (less than 9), I want to insert a leading zero so all 6 numbers are 2 digits.
Is this possible with custom formatting? I tried a custom for of:
00"-"00"-"00"-"00"-"00"-"00
and it is not working.
I also tried using a MID formula but it gets quite complex identifying the location of the dash - is there an easier way than the MID or LEN?
I am trying to insert custom formatting into a cell so when I enter a set of 9 numbers for phone numbers in the U.S. and 14 numbers for international phone numbers, it will automatically display it in the correct format. Reason for the 0's on the international is because country codes often start with a 0, so I need to ensure it isn't removed from the number.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet that has a number in cell K5 - the number is generated on "file open" code and is custom formatted as "TN"0000. Thus 1 appears as TN0001, 2 as TN0002 and so on. I am trying to save a copy of the workbook based on the this cells contents i.e. TN0001.xls, TN0002.xls etc. but the files are saved as 1.xls or 2.xls. The code I am using is
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="C:DataExcelFORMSDelivery Note" & Range("K5") & ".xls", _
FileFormat:=xlNormal, ReadOnlyRecommended:=True, CreateBackup:=False
I know I must make reference to format within the above....but how? if try something like
" & Format(Range("K5").Value, ("TN""0000")) & ".xls"
I get TN00000.xls
I looked though the site with the search and saw some things that came close, but no cigar.
I have a column of numbers formated in a constant string
eg 1234121231234
The number needs to be formatted into four sections
eg 1234-12-123-1234
I have the code to put the dashes in, but I am looking for the loop statement to take it down column C reading in each number in the 1234121231234 format until the end, and replacing it one by one with the 1234-12-123-1234.
' calls the function to put the dashes in the NSN in the QRL
'First 4 of NSN
first4 = Left(NSN, 4)
'Second2 of NSN

For Y = 1 To Len(nsn9)
second2 = Left(nsn9, 2)
Next Y
'Next3 of NSN
nsn7 = Right(NSN, 7)
For Y = 1 To Len(nsn7)
next3 = Left(nsn7, 3)
Next Y
'Last4 of NSN
last4 = Right(NSN, 4)
dash = "-"
NewItem = first4 + dash + second2 + dash + next3 + dash + last4
I have one cell with $20,000 hard coded (cell A1). In another cell I want the cell to say "20,000 Capital Raise" (cell B1). And i want B1 to link to A1 so that if i change the number in A1 it will also change in B1.
Here's what i have in B1 so far: ="$"&J6&" Capital Raise"
This produces "$20000 Capital Raise" in cell B1.
So the only thing i'm trying to figure out is how to get the comma in the $20,000 so it will read "$20,000" instead of "$20000".

I am creating a spreadsheet for a stockroom, each product that my business sells, is on an individual row, and the details for each product can be seen in the columns (e.g. Product ID, Product Name, Cost Price, Number Sold, Number Brought, Units in Stock).
What I want to happen, is for rows to be blacked out (through formatting) if the remaining stock levels fall below around 3, then the row that the product is on, is 'un-blacked out' and so can be seen. However if the number of remaining stock is above 3, the row is blacked out.
So the sheet will work that only products with the number of remaining units in stock are below 3, are visible, and the others are blacked out.
I need to take a column of numbers and round them to the nearest 10. This is for a worksheet that will go out to clients, and we aren't allowed to leave functions (such as =mround(5556.54645645656, 10)) in place. However, the only alternative is to just type over that long number with "5560", which eats the original number and isn't desirable either.
Therefore, I have come to look at custom formatting. The closest thing I have found is this thread: [URL] ......

I have a date in H34, 21/03/2009.

In G10, I want the cell to read: Number at end of March 2009, with the month and year being taken from the date range. To be honest, I can get the year okay using the Year() function but cant get the month as cant convert it back from a numeric.

I have a list of 100 songs and the artists that sing each song.
What I want is a formula that will look at the rank that it finishes with and assign it a different number (e.g. the song that finished at number 1, has a value of 100).
As there can be multiple songs by the one artist, I need to add them ALL up and have a total score for each singer/band.
e.g.
1 Powderfinger - My Happiness (100 points)
2 U2 - Beautiful Day (99 points)
3 Powderfinger - My kind of scene (98 points)
4 Wheatus - Teenage Dirtbag (97 points)
5 Coldplay - Yellow (96 points)
So Powderfinger would have 198 points and the other 3 would have 99, 97 and 96.
The band names are in one column and the song names are in the next column.
I can't figure out how to use the custom number formatting to get 20130522A to display as 2013 05 22A. I don't care if it has to be 2013 05 22 A, the extra space is fine.
I have been googling and trying different things and I cant get anything to work. All of the characters can be text, there will always be 4 characters, a space, 2 characters, a space, and the remaining 3 characters. It seems as though it should be so simple to add two spaces into a fixed length string, but I guess not.
I am extracting data from a website to excel 2010. my problem is the data contains both text, numbers, and sometimes a combination of both.

How do i first format the numbers written in text into numbers and then show only the numbers in a cell minus the text?
Column A has a custom format of 000. Therefore the numbers in that column always have leading zeroes if they're less than 3 digits long.
I want to copy these leading zeroes to another column, but I DON'T want to have to custom format the new column. I just want the values copied over with any leading zeroes, if applicable.
When I "Paste Special" and select "Values", numbers like "1" that show up as "001" in Column A will show up as "1" again in the new column. How can I get the actual value "001" to be all that's in the new column?
If it's easier for you, pretend I need to copy over these custom formatted values in to another program which does not retain any custom formatting.

Any way to import and use icon sets for conditional formatting other than the ones provided in excel 2007? I would like to have some circles and shapes in colors other than just yellow, green, red, and gray.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a range of cells with numeric values or blanks. I set up a Conditional Formatting rule with this range selected: New Rule > Format only cells that contain > Format only cells with: Blanks; then I set the formatting to a light green fill and on the Number tab > Category = Custom > Type: "blank"
The blank fields get the light green fill, but no text; that is, the value displayed is still blank.
I go back to edit the CF rule and change Blanks to No Blanks. The results are what I expect: the cells with numbers display the text blank and have a green fill; the blank cells have no fill (white).
This is my testing criteria. I eventually want the empty cells to display 0 (zero). I tried setting Custom > Type: 0 (the number placeholder zero) and Type: "0" (literally the number zero), and neither works.
I have tried this with Format only cells with Cell Value equal to [the address of a blank cell].
I tried to set the value as "" but kept getting =""""; and ="" became ="=""" ???
I have tried this with Use a Formula... using the len()=0, isblank(), and other approaches, all with the same results.
I also made sure the option [x] Show a zero in cells that have a zero value is checked.
With all approaches to identifying the blank cells, they ARE obviously being recognized as blank values: the fill color is being applied to the right cells; and when Not Blank is the criterion (or a negation of a formula), the blank ones are not formatted. But blank cells will not display the text as defined in the Custom Formatting.
And this isn't an issue of "If the cell displays 'blank' it's no longer blank, so the rule doesn't apply" - HERE'S WHY: I set up a second CF rule that sets the Font to red when the value is greater than zero and had this CF rule follow the CF rule for No Blanks (the test above that works). Cells with positive numbers displayed blank in red, cells with zeros or negative numbers displayed blank in black. This clarified that the actual value of the cell is being evaluated, not the displayed value after Custom formatting is applied.

I tried dragging by the grip in the bottom right hand corner but it changes the first didit only. I tried to put it the numbers in the format
100
101
102
and using a custom format number to put in the extra zeros. This worked fine until I used a countif (or it may of been a lookup) statement in my code to look for 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0100 and it can't find it as the number is 100. Is there away around this that will save me typing in an awful lot of zeros.
I need to create a custom function that can do the following without modifying the selected range. If I have data in a row, I need a function that can give me the following result:
Original unsorted data:
79
45
23
56
1
The custom formula will not modify the selected range, and after saving it or copying somewhere and sorting it, it will provide the following result: if N or count(range)=5 , and p=1, average(second and third smallest values of the range)=34; and if N=4 (lets say that we errase the number 1 data point in the range), average(third and fourth smallest values of the range)=67.5 So it is basically a sort and then getting the averages of specified row numbers depending on N or count(range) Here is what I have.
I'm missing how to create a variable with the sorted range and how to use an index to refer to the rows I want to average:
Function CSORT(r, p)
Application.Volatile
'rs or something similar that will contain the sorted range r
Dim rs As Range
'Sort rs (The following line one doesn't work, so I need one that does)
rs = Application.Range(r).Sort
Dim p As Integer

how can you custom a cell format in which you may in type in information that is displayed as ###-##-####-@# I searched everywhere and cannot find this.
For example, a medicare number.
I would need to type in 581566223b6, and it should be displayed as 581-56-2236-B6.
I'm trying to make a converter between about 8 various types of values. These are not units like Km or miles or something like that, but rather numbers that represent a specific "hardness value" on a variety of scales (to name a few: HRC, HRA, K)
What I've been doing so far is plotting the two types against eachother and then getting the best trendline I can so that I can use that formula to convert between the two with relative certainty. (for example, when plotting HV vs HRC my fourth order polynomial trendline with an Rsquared of 1 is y=0.0001x4 - 0.0188x3 + 1.0768x2 - 20.709x + 350.69)
My questions comes up where I was hoping to make a window or box of some sort allowing the user to input a numeric value, then selecting the Input units and the hopeful output calculated units, and have the box spit back to the user the conversion.
I am wondering if I am able to display dates as text. Example: If I have a date that displays as 5/6/2014 is there anyway I can get it to display as 562014 as text?
