Data Validation - Formula Creation..
Feb 11, 2009
I would like the individual cells of C1 and D1 to allow me to input values up to 100. The tricky part is that if D1 equals 100 I would like C1 to be less than 100 and vice versa, if C1 equals 100 then D1 should equal less than 100.
Ex. C1 = 100 & D1 = 10
This should never happen: C1 = 100 & D1 = 100. I would also like an error box to show when either of the cell values exceed 100.

I've converted to a dynamic validation list which allows for a selection of data to be made available based on the selection of the two previous columns.
Unfortunately since creating the new validation a circulating error occurs when tabbing through the table (B) to create a new line or entry? Additionally I've found the following to occur also;
1. The payments and PO# columns converts a red shade colour?
2. The validation on Table B description column do not work while in excel online edit mode?

I have an excel workbook with 2 sheets.For now, the first sheet is blank and the second sheet is a "standard" form we use at work.Now by doing this by hand, we have to change 4 individual cells, print it out, change the 4 cells again and so forth, which is tiring and time-consuming.Imagine having to do this ~90 times/day average.Here's the real question.
I want to be able to input my data on a sheet with this format:
ROW A: TEXT1
TEXT2
...
ROW B: DATA1
DATA2
...
ROW C: BLEH1
BLEH2
...
ROW D: BLAH1
BLAH2
...
Data is plain text, no formulas, no nothing.Plain simple text.What i want to do is, or at least i hope to, is as soon as i am done,i want excel to create a new Sheet with the name of the text input from row A (create a new sheet for every single data input though), copy the "standard" form from sheet2 and change the necessary cells provided from row b, row c and so forth.
So if my input is: NWS1790 XX-AAA RHO 155
I want it to create a new sheet with the name nws1790 by copying a pre-existing sheet but replacing certain cells with XX-AAA, RHO, 155.

Essentially, I would like a user to be able to select a PUB from the Data Validation drop down in row 2 of the PUB RATES sheet so that the corresponding information in the DATA sheet autofills.
Currently, this works only for the first column under each PUB when selected and this fills across all 4 columns (rather than the respective information for each column filling).
Also, the Data Validation dropdown includes blanks which I would like to exclude.
I have used a Range Name for the Data Validation of each PUB so that these can be drawn from a separate sheet as I don't want all the DATA content on the same sheet as the PUB RATES content.

I have a workbook with two tabs, the first tab "Query" is an Access query that pulls in call data from our phone systems. The second tab "Report" is a userform/report. This will be used by numerous people and has to be as userfriendly as possibly. Because our clients want the data sent this way I don't have a lot of room in changing the report itself.
Let me paint the picture, I have it so the user is able to select the month from a validation list I created in B1, when the month is selected is autopopulates each work day of that month in cells A13:A35. There are several (28 total) reports from different phone lines we have. So I have another validation list in cell B3 that has the name of each report we have. So in theory the user should select the month and report and the information will fill in and they can print that specific report off. The issue is this. I had used the formula =SUMPRODUCT(--(Query!A5:A25004=Report!A13),--(Query!B5:B25004=Aban_08),Query!E5:E25004). I'm trying to find total calls for specific lines for specific dates. The "Report" tab has information from January to current with all 80 different call lines (all named differently such as CDN_5700, CDN_5701). One report such as "Aban_08" actually pulls information from several call lines which is bringing me to my issue, I need one tab for the report, and be able to have the user select the different report, but each report pulls from multiple call line names. Again, I need (for instance) B13 (cell A13 is the date June 2) to pull all calls from the report tab for the date of June 2 with (for example) the names "CDN_5700","CDN_5701","CDN_5702".

I am trying to make a simple planning sheet.
I have a workbook with 2 sheets.
1.sheet contains Columns : DayDateTimeClassTeacherCovered
2. sheet contains the availability of teachers. so all columns start with a date and the rows contain the name.
A row therefore looks like this.
7/1
Harley
Lidia
Livia
Thais
Salete
Carla
My issue: The 1.sheet has a column Teacher, now in this column I want to have a drop down list. (E2, E3, E4, E5 ... etc..) This list is depended on the date which is in column B.
Essentially I want the list to look up date in its row go to the second sheet and give me all the possible names in it. That is all.

I have a cell that uses list type data validation. I need to be able to update the list of allowable values via a macro and would greatly prefer not using a range in excel.
I've been able to create the string that I want as the formula but cannot change the formula. I'm not very familiar with this aspect of excel macros (data validation)

How do I hardcode the Offset function? Right now I am placing the offset formula in Validation from the Data menu toolbar.
Also, I have two columns "Expense" and "Income" used for offset. Expense has 11 selections for the listbox, and Income has only 3. When I choose income from the dropdown in column B, I get way too many blank selections in the dropdown just because It doesnt contain as many items as Expense. How can I re-code adn hardcode the formula so I have only few blanks for my selection.
I have attached a copy "data validation test" to help make things more clear.

I'm trying to figure a to enforce dual data validation on a single cell. That is, I need to restrict the user to entering only a decimal value, only if a particular other cell (say A2) is blank. To put it another way, if A2 is blank, the user can enter a decimal value, but if A2 is not blank, the user cannot enter anything. I can use Data Validation to enforce either the decimal restriction or the ISBLANK, but I'm not sure how to make them work together.

I'm trying to set a data validation in B1 from values in A1:A5.
A1: Car
A2: Papers
A3: Pencil
A4: Pants
A5: Shoes
What I want is show in dropdown list the words in singular (without the "s" at the end).
The formula below works if I introduce it in a normal cell,
[Code]....
or as array formula with CRTL+SHIFT+ENTER in this way
[Code] .....
But I get the message that the formula has error when I introduce any of both in "Validation Criteria"-->Allow "List"-->Source.

if it is possible to have data validations on a cell within Excel but allow a user to input a formula? The data validation is a decimal between 0 and 1 and the formula would be a vlookup.

I am trying to use the validation feature to calculate a check digit and the formula is too long to put in validation. I rewrote the formula to be shorter using math features instead of text, but apparently you can't use arrays in validation. Because of certain distribution constraints, using VBA is not possible so a UDF is out. Can either of these be shortened in anyway? I am not sure if it is even technically possible to solve this problem with these constraints.
Here is the "human readable" explanation of formula:
(Accept only 10 digit numeric value.)
Example Number: 123456789-3
Digits 1,3,5,7,9 are multiplied by 2 (weighted 5)
So 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 becomes 2,2,6,4,10,6,14,8,18Weighted 5's multiplied values then have their individual digits added (ex:12=1+2=3)
So 2,2,6,4,10,6,14,8,18 becomes 2,2,6,4,1,6,5,8,9
Weighted 5's sum is added to the sum of the Nonweighted 4 digits.
So 2,2,6,4,1,6,5,8,9,3 becomes 43
Add 24 to sum.
43+24 = 67
Checksum = (10-(67 mod 10)) mod 10
(Sum round up to 10 minus sum)
Method 1 ...

I have a range named as follows in a formula:
BaseCase!$O:$O
I have a data validation from which the user can choose another tab.
So, how do I change the reference above to:
TabName!$O:$O
so that TabName refers to the text string in cell B2 (data val. box)
I tried to use TEXT to no avail. I imagine there is a simple solution, but I am at a loss.
INDIRECT perhaps?

Is it possible to validate a string with both numbers and text with a formula using data validation? (I don't want to use a User Defined Function)
in Column C, Starting in cell C2 I have a 12 character string of six numbers, four letters, and two numbers. like this:
280838ZNOV11
is it possible to use a Custom Data Validation formula to ensure the user follows this format?

I am trying to get my array formula to recognize the text selected in my data validation cell. The formula worked perfectly until I decided I wanted to try and use a data validation list to eliminate spelling errors. Even though the text I am trying to recognize in the cell is exactly the same, because it is in a data validation format it no longer works. Is there a way I can modify my formula so it works? Example below...
formula: {=SUM((A2:A109>DATE(2013,10,31))*(H2:H108="Joe Blow"))}
A2: 11/2/2013
H2: Joe Blow (chosen from a data validationi list)
The result of the formula should equal 1 in this example, or more if the same criteria occurs more than once within the range of A2:A109, and H2:H109.

Can I limit the text length in a cell that contains a formula? You may say "Limit the text length in the input cell". That can't be done because the formula in the resultant cell takes text from two other cells in addition to the input cell. I need to limit the overall text length to, let say, 50 characters.

I am quite inexperienced with Excel and I am struggling to understand how should I set up a formula, within the data validation function to achieve the following:
I need to restrict a certain set of cells, for people to be able to input only the following values: "1", "0.5", "A", "H", "0.5A" (or 0.5a), "0.5H" (or 0.5h)
And I would need the data validation tool not to include blank cells.

I have 2 columns First Name & Surname. What I want to do is create a data validation list on the surname which results in the 2nd data validation list only showing the first names which link to one of the surnames.
i.e. If I selected Smith in the 1st validation list then I would only like to see 'Paul' as an option in the 2nd list
First Name
Surname
Paul
Smith
Paul
Jones
Tony

I would like to know if it's possible to populate a data validation list based on what is selected from 4 validation lists?
for example:
On sheet1:
If 'Group1' is selected from data validation list1 then data validation list5 will show a list of all items from Group1. If 'Group2' is selected from data validation list2, then data validation list5 will display all the items in 'Group2'...
(I do not want to use a combo box for this)

I am wanting to make a macro into an add-in. An add-in is basically a workbook with macros that is opened when excel is correct? I know how to create an additional menu item under an existing one, but I'm wanting to create my own menu with this add-in item under it. I've used this code to try and create the new menu and placed it in the workbook open:
HelpIndex = CommandBars(1).Controls("Help").Index
Set NewMenu = CommandBars(1).Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlPopup, Before:=HelpIndex, Temporary:=True)
NewMenu.Caption = "&Separate Cashiers"
But ran into an error on the first line of code. I saved the workbook with the add-in macro in it as an .xla and used the addins under tools to have it open each time.

I'm needing some code that will program-magically do the following interactive stuff:
1. Go to the first cell that will be the start of my range, say "D1".
2. While holding down the "shift" key, press "end", then "down". All of the desired cells will then have been selected. [side note: how can I detect that the "d2" cell is not blank - I don't really want 65K cells in my range?]
3. Next, "Insert", "Name", "Define", then typein the desired name range ("schoolList", here) and press enter.
This would seem to be a case for using the macro recorder but the range will always come out hard-coded, rather than the cells that would be selected using an "end" "down" selection.

I have a UserForm with a CommandButton; when I click on it a function creating dynamic checkboxes on another UserForm is implemented and then this second UserForm is displayed (and the dynamic checkboxes are displayed too).
Code:
Private Sub cmd_BUTTON_Click()
If MsgBox("Are you sure you want to add Dynamic CheckBoxes?", vbQuestion + vbOKCancel, "") = vbOK Then
UserForm1.Hide
UserForm2.Caption = "DYNAMIC CHECKBOXES"
Create_DynamicCheckboxes
End If
End Sub
Code:
Sub Create_DynamicCheckboxes()
Dim CheckBoxTop As Integer
CheckBoxTop = 75
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To 10
Set theCheckBox_ID = UserForm2.Controls.Add("Forms.CheckBox.1")
[Code] .........
Everything work fine!!!
Now I have the UserForm2 displayed that include 10 CheckBoxes, which names should be:
chk_1chk_2chk_3chk_4chk_5chk_6chk_7chk_8chk_9chk_10
Why the following code doesn't work???
Code:
Private Sub chk_1_Click()
MsgBox(chk_1.Value)
End Sub
