I have a spreadsheet that tracks hours for employes and I need to get the data in a different layout to import to a database i'm building. The example spreadsheet has 2 tabs, the first is the format it's currently in and the second in the one I need it in.
View 4 RepliesIn an Excel sheet i have set up a link to an Access database query (select query) using the Import External Data method. The data is store sales by week, arranged in a pivot table layout (stores as rows, weeks as columns). As time goes by, the database will be updated for new weeks sales, and i would like to refresh the data and the new weeks automatically appear in the Excel sheet, in subsequent columns.
At the moment, the only way i can seem to get this to work is to open up the link in MSQuery and manually select the new weeks from the Access query. i have set the parameters to overwrite cells with new data rather than insert new data. i'm sure there is a way to do this, as it feels like it would be a common thing to want, but i can't seem to find an answer anywhere!
Is there a really good tutorial for laying out multiple database queries in excel? Or even just for automating reports between Excel and Access? Here is my situation: Monthly, Quarterly & Annually I report on performance standards such as: duration, best practices, cost-benefit analysis, etc. The information is pretty standard and is pulled from Excel Reports. Access is used to filter this information by appropriate month, quarter, year, and/or data type. In access I calculate the performance averages, max and min. Then this is in linked back to Excel to update the charts and summaries. My concern is how much time I spend rebuilding this system every month (about 4 business days)

I have a workbook where employee scheduling is done on a monthly basis in 15 minute intervals. It is laid out like this:

OTHEWISE, ERROR OF JavaScript OCCUR.
The times go from 8 AM - 8 PM, and all of the cells within the range B3:AF51 are drop downs with the employee names listed. They are conditionally formatted so that we can easily see who is scheduled to work when, and on what days.
The problem that I have is that I like this layout for inputting the data because I can see it all very clearly, but it is not good for archiving or saving past months data. I want to be able to take that view and change the format so that it can easily be summarized in a Pivot Table for all of the historical information.
So, I need to take the date and time and format both of them into a column, put the client name (will be the sheet name) in the next column, and then the name of the staff that worked during that time.

From there I can take a completed month, and quickly run some code to make the change, and add it to the historical tracking where it is all summarized.
I have a data feed that gives me a summary of a set of data. I want to be able to work back to what would be the original data (this unfortunately isn't available). The attached excel file as an example of what I am trying to do.
I am not too sure about the working with the dates etc.
I have a worksheet that has similar data but some maybe different lengths. What im trying to do is to be able to have them all in line so where the diagram no. is on the worksheet they are all lined up. On the excel sheet attached I want TURN NO in column J to line up with turn no in Column A each time.

I need to change the layout of data within a cells. Attached is a sample of what I need to do
View 9 Replies View RelatedI would like to know if there is a way to change the format of external data? Instead of the default:
the sheet is very long and monitors the sales activities of each individual every day extending vertically down the sheet until the present day.
my first priority was to get the information recorded but now i am wanting to use it.
how would an expert arrange this data to make analysis easier going forward?
ultimately i will be wanting to look at individuals, groups of individuals, certain types of activity etc within various time periods.
Is there an way to make an YES and NO button where when i click YES it pop-up a box asking for confirmation on the action and if you confirm it then the data wrote into A1, A8, D1, D8 will be saved into "Product Exit" worksheet then the data into A1, A8, D1, D8 will be cleared.
aswell as a NO button but the NO button will save into Product not sold IF confirmed TRUE and then cleared and if confirmed FALSE will just clear A1, A8, D1, D8. if it cant be done with the confirmation can it be done without it example ?
I would like to state how fantastic a resource this forum has been to me as a beginner. So keep up the good work! The issue I have is that my spreadsheet contains one column which shares two types of data: Component Type and Tag Number. What I would like the script to do is:
1. create a new column
2. move the Tag Number data from its current column into the newly created column
3. ensure that the data is still on the same row as it was previously
One thing to bear in mind is that the tag numbers consists of various formats (spaces/no spaces), but always begin and end with brackets - "(XTU U-532-934)". I have included and example of the current state of the data and what I would like to look like after.
I would like to change the data layout from the "Original Table" to the "Final Table" as in attached file. Belinda_June-25-07.xls. How do I use VBA to do the change? In my original table, I may have several hundred rows and more than 36 columns for the time periods.

I just want that data in the data table to be displayed once, completely leaving of the axis legend.
I need a macro created, which extracts data from the text file, and displays the low level detail which is on the text file.

I need to get this fixed by 5 pm tonight, otherwise a foresee a night of copy and paste ahead. I thought pivot tables might work, but alas no, it only tells me the number of the comments i have.
My last post here was brilliant, I was very close to figuring the problem out myself (I'm learning) and the help I got here really was useful to help me finally get what i wanted to work.
Unfortunately, this request isn't so simple, as I haven't a clue what to even search the forum for to help me with this.
I have attached a simplified example to try and explain what i would like to happen.
Sheet1 holds information which is regularly updated, so the number of rows can vary, as the number of customers vary.
I want to produce a management report from this data, with a specific layout.
I have put the layout into Sheet2 - the cells highlighted in yellow are there simply as a reference to show the cell from which column would go where.
I produced the top report, by filling the cells with =and then clicking on the cell on sheet1 that I wanted displayed there.
I thought that if I then selected the table and filling down, it would produce the same layout table for all the other rows - but I was wrong.
Another problem is that, this report is needed to be entirely automatic, so I don't want to fettle filling down cells for the number of rows. I will need it to count the number of rows in Sheet1 and produce a report in the specific layout for each company in sheet 2.
It may be an option to use a button create the report, to save the report into a new workbook with automatic file name containing the date and also print a copy out automatically on the default printer.
I don't know how to go about this task at all, so I would really appreciate some help, even if it is pointers for what i should be searching the forum for!
I previously posted a problem related to copying data from one sheet and paste it in another workbook when "Delivered" is chosen from a drop down menu. Everything works fine with my dummy files, but a problem comes up when I try to incorporate this code into the original file.
The issue is that once the code copies the info from the range A3:D3 it has to paste it into different cells in the other workbook.
Please see the attached file to see where I need the data from the range A3:D3 to be pasted.
