This is probably a simple fix, but I cannot figure out why some of my data will overlap over the next cell if it is bigger than the cell width and then some will not, I just get ###### error. There is nothing in the next cell. I don't want to increase the cell size because that would mess up the rest of my page format. I've also tried to merge two cells together, but then it causes an error in my macro, even though the cell name is the same.
One of my customers has a worksheet where he enters [alot] of text into cells. As if they were all word documents. Ok, well, not that much text. In either aspect, the cells are supposed to overlap into the next cell, if it's empty. Which it is. Only it isn't overlapping at all. It's still cropping as if there was some value/data/formulae/anything in that adjacent cell. I'm not sure why. We've deleted the cells in question (Both the ones we were enterring data into, and the ones that were supposedly empty) and re-inserted blank cells, and it still does not work.
Is this a glitch, or is there some work-around or fix for it? Or is it a setting and we're just special?
I have a dynamic column chart that may contain positive or negative (or both) values. The columns contain Data Labels positioned 'Outside End'.
I want to avoid the Data Labels (for the negative values) overlapping the x axis. Is there a way to do this via VBA?
I know how to update the chart axis via vba linked to cell values, but I can't figure out a formula I can use to calculate the minimum which takes into account the distance needed to avoid the overlapping problem.
Attached please find two charts based on data from 2003 until year-end 2006 (estimated). I want to show that the data is "seasonal" and sales depends on the month it falls on... i have several issues with the chart, is the second chart "too" overlapping and is there too much data to read? 2) how can i get the text boxes to go in the same direction as the chart..i know in powrerpoint you can move the direction of the textbox but how in excel? in sum, i can only choose one chart but still want to make each chart look much better.
I wanted to see if there was a way to keep an empty cell blank when the cell next to it is overlapping. I know I can wrap the box but I'd prefer to keep all the cells one width.
If I autofill, Excel does not seem to be able to recognize that pattern. Instead, Excel adds 1 to each row so that the fourth cell is as follows: =AVERAGE(A17:A23)
But rather, the fourth cell should be the following: =AVERAGE(A23:A29)
Is there a way to autofill with the 7 cell intervals?
I need to get the average of every 6 cells, but the first value of each group of 6 is the last of the previous group. I'd also like the output to be displayed beside the last value in each group. i.e.
CELL B7 =AVERAGE(A2:A7) CELL B12 =AVERAGE(A7:A12) CELL B17 =AVERAGE(A12:A17) etc.
I saw this "=AVERAGE(OFFSET(A$1,(ROW()-ROW(B$1))*10,,10,))" in another post which seems similar but how to modify it.
I have a spreadsheet of all of my company's long distance calls for last month - 30k rows. It includes the start time of the call and the duration. From that I can calculate the end time of the call.
My phone system can handle 24 concurrent calls. I'm trying to see how many times throughout the month did we have 24 or more calls going on at once.
Assume Start_Time is Column_A and End_Time is Column_B Currently I can test if one call is going on at the same time a second call is by this formula
I have been looking all over and cannot find an answer on how to do this. I work for a call center that takes inbound technical support calls. We recently added a chat support option for our end users. Our chat agents can take up to 3 chats at the same time. I need to determine the total amount of concurrent chats for each agent per day as well as the total amount of concurrent time for each agent per day. Below is a sample of my data. Notice how the start time on row 5 is earlier than the end time on row 4. I need excel to count this as a concurrent chat and then calculate the amount of time that was concurrent (in this example it would be 16 minutes). Currently I have 2000 rows of data and 30 different agents.
How to calculate overlapping times. I have found a few formulas on here I have tried to reproduce with no luck. This thread is similar to my issue.(How to calculate the amount of overlapping time) I need a non VBA format.
I need to know what times are overlapping; I need to see when two people are working active cases at the same time and how much time is overlapping. This is a huge spreadsheet with several rows of data. At this moment I am dong it all manually.
Here is a sample of what is looks like. As you can see the first line is overlapping with the second line by 8 minutes into the next case.
I have a list of all employees and the start date and end date they had an specific salary some dates overlap because they were working in different projects at the same time. I am looking for a function that will verify if any dates are overlapping for each employee. Some will have only one or two rows others have several rows. Here is the sample of the data?
I wanted to ask if you know any charting software which can give weight to elements on a chart when two or more variables overlap? Ideally the color intensity of, say, circles should increase from pale blue to vivid blue depending on the number of the data items which are operlapping at one point. I include a sample chart which should give you a general idea of the chart I want to make and the data set from which it was made.
how to resize the plotarea of a chart so that it wont overlap with the title. I can't seem to find the appropriate property to let me determine the height or the bottom edge of the chart title.
I really can't wrap my head around the idea of calculating overlap (in network days) between six date ranges and was wondering if any of you would have a solution to this problem.
I'm having trouble defining the time overlaps on continuous days for the varying results of the runs for my simulation.
For the following data set, without counting overlaps there are 18 total spare requirements, but if I take into account their overlaps in their duration there should be a total of 11 per day. For example in row 4 this event overlapped in the same day with the event of row 5 so both had only 2 overlaps as a result (So there is not possible to be 1 as an answer for overlap, there is only from 2 to "n" amount or 0).
But if an event overlaps with more than one in their duration the result would be their maximum overlap during this time frame.
So then I have for each event an Starting date, starting time, duration, ending date and ending duration.And for each day I would need the total amount of overlaps occurred for the duration of each event and from those I would take their maximum amount of overlaps occurred per day. To obtain their real requirement as shown on the file.
The manual procedure I'm using looks like this for the first day: (Graphical representation)
Event 1 occurs from 17:02 to 20:29 and only overlaps with Event 3, so it's 2
Event 2 occurs from 20:38 to 23:38, also only overlaps with Event 3, then its also a 2
For Event 3 in its whole duration only overlapped with Even 1 and Event 2, one at a time so its maximum overlaps where only 2.
And that's what I'm using so far to determine these amounts but since is a simulation, I would end up with several data from each run and this method would be too long. That's why I would need this template to paste data for each run (15 days) and obtain my results faster.
I am having difficulty calculating the number of total overlapping days between several date ranges for each item in another sheet which has unique items
I am using Excel 2003 and my data looks like this:
Sheet-1 Sheet-2 Item - Sent Out (A) - Received (B) Unique Item Number of days excluding overlap days 1234 01/06/2010 - 30/06/2010 1234 - 4321 02/06/2010 - 16/06/2010 4321 - 1234 09/06/2010 - 10/06/2010 4321 21/06/2010 - 25/06/2010 1234 23/06/2010 - 25/06/2010 4321 23/06/2010 - 29/06/2010
I have used the below formula found from the earlier post but need to add a condition calculating the days for each item.
I am creating an asset management sheet. For the formula I am trying to work out there uses 3 fields : ID, start date, and end date.
What I want to do is be able to show if the ID is duplicated within another record with an overlapping date. So an item is flagged if it is in the list within the same dates as another record. I tried a few countif formulas but with no success.. I may just be approaching the problem incorrectly though.
The merged Cell B6:G6 will receive a ten-digit number followed by a dash and then one or more numbers. (For example: 1234567890-123)
Cell B15 will then receive data shortly afterwards. I already have a validation macro for this cell which allows either 'I' or 'I I I'.
Upon exiting Cell B15, merged Cell B16:H16 needs a macro which will check Cell B15 and if it contains 'I', Cell B16:H16 will display the data from the ten-digit number entered in Cell B6:G6 minus the first five digits. (For example: 67890-123)
Now the data in Cell B16:H16 can only be somewhat editable hereafter. It can be erased or replaced with numbers in smaller or greater digit combinations than five before the dash (i.e. 67890-123 can be replaced with 123456-7), and digits can be added after the whole group (i.e. 67890-123 & SEE DWG) without any error messages. But if any five-digit number with a dash and some numbers exist in Cell B16:H16, they must correspond with the number in Cell B6:G6 minus the first five digits.
However, if Cell B15 ever receives a 'I I I' afterwards, all data in Cell B16:H16 must be erased. Cell B16:H16 can never contain data if Cell B15 contains 'I I I'.
Also, if the data in Cell B6:G6 changes later on, the corresponding digits in Cell B16:H16 must change as well, even if there are digits after the whole group.
So here is an example of what a good macro would do for me: ...
I have an Excel workbook which contains data entry fields, which have different types of data validation rules - like Lists, Date, Whole Number.
I do not want end users to remove these data validations as well as the formatting of these cells by doing copy/paste. So, I have implemented techniques mentioned in the following post, and elsewhere - to override the paste functionality and implement PasteSpecial values automatically.
[url] To keep it simple, I'm only supporting pasting a single cell at a time.
Now my problem is this: Doing the PasteSpecial values programmatically doesn't prevent the user from pasting values in the cell that violate the data validation rules. So, I can paste a string into a cell having data validation as Whole Number, or a invalid string into a cell having data validation as List.
The following post just suggests disabling paste whenever data validation is present: [url]
But I would like to allow the paste operation if the value being pasted is a valid value for the cell's data validation.
I want to do (seemingly easy task) of getting a price from a code, from a code sheet.
EXAMPLE: Sheet1 (Log sheet) A1 = "Code456" A2 = $? <- This needs to be found.
Sheet2 (Price Sheet) A1=Code123 B1=$1 A2=Code456 B1=$2 A3=Code789 B1=$0.50 Etc, and so on...
What I want to do is basically (without using macros): "If A1 = sheet2:A1, then A2 = sheet2:B1, halt. , ELSE, If A1 = sheet2:A2, then A2 = sheet2:B2, halt. ELSE, So on and so forth..."
I thought there might be an easy way to do it with some sort of 'double sided' data validation drop downs or OFFSET function but I cant figure it out.
I wondering if it is possible for a macro to recognise whether or not there is text in an adjacent cell, and if there is, then to copy data from another adjacent cell.
For example, because there is data in C2, data from A2 has been inputted into B2. And any blank cells are left alone.
I am looking for a way to do what i would call a dual vlookup.
i have some data in a number of sheets and need to do some consolidation into a summary sheet. problem is, not all the sheets have data in the same columns and rows but all the data is the same.
what i am trying to do is something like
vlookup("a",sheet2!A:M,***need to put the column of the data here***,0)
i cant just put in the column number because it changes on each sheet, need some way to do another lookup there, like an hlookup or something, so that i could lookup which column contained 'sales' and return that number so it can be put into the vlookup.
I have 2 problems relating to LOOKUP. Not sure if Excel can perform these calculations as they could get to complex.
Problem 1 Can it be possible to have excel look at data from one cell reference another cell then display the results from the cell next to it in another cell, sort of example:
Tab 1 (Never changes) AB Bob1 Jon2 Fred3
Tab 2 (Dynamic, changes each week) AB Jon Fred Bob
So it would work as follows. Tab2 column B will take Tab2 column A’s data check Tab1 column A and display Tab1 column B’s result.
Problem 2
Weekly league rank table that shows position movements week by week Example.
Week1 1Jon 2Bob 3Fred
Week2 1FredUp 2 2BobNot Moved 3JonDown 2
Can Excel calculate/show the actual movements of league positions?
Looking for a formula to accomplish the following:
I'm trying to populate cell A31 on a worksheet titled "VolumeTotals" with the data in Cell E23 from a worksheet titled "CurrentCustomers" if the merged cells F3-F22 on worksheet "CurrentCustomers" are equal to the word "Contract".
I want find the data in some rows that same with one or more cell and automatically fill the data. And for more details, I have attached the examp file (Examp.xls).Antoni
