My production spreadsheet has thousands of unwanted columns and I am unsure as to how they appeared. I want to delete them. I have tried selecting all of them and deleting them, but nothing happens. I have tried go to > blanks, but it freezes because there are so many columns.
Also, I tried to copy paste to a new sheet, but the formulas get messed up.
For a mental picture, the spreadsheet is approx 225 rows by 25 columns.
I am working with a worksheet that has has 26 columns and about 2000 rows. However, somehow Excel has added tens of thousands of rows and columns to it, all of them empty. I know this is causing some memory trouble but I can't find an easy way to get rid of them. At one point I fixed the problem by selecting the cells I was using and starting a new worksheet, but I don't want to have to do that every day.

Since my data is large, so efficiency is also important.
Please refer to attached file.
Column A have data and i need VB Code (Not formula) to check each cell in column A and delete any spaces and make sure that there is no spaces after end of the text.
As an example you can see Cell cell A15 thru A22 have spaces after the text so need to delete those spaces

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a list of grades they are 3a, 3b, 3c, 4a, 4b, 4c, etc up to 7a. An a is one grade than a b, and a b is one grade higher than a c. In one test a student may score a 4b and in another a 4a. I need a way to calculate the difference in "grades" e.g if a student scores a 4a in test 1 and a 5c in test 2 the difference is 1.
Is there a way I can do this using custom formatting or will I have to assign values to the grades and insert extra columns to do the calculations. I need the simpliest way as I have to disseminate to my staff in my department.
I am inputting 5 variables in columns A through E:
Family (Y/N)
Adult (1/0)
Child (1/0)
Date of Birth
Gender
I am attempting to generate:
Age Males in families sorted into age brackets
Age Females in families sorted into age brackets
Age Males single sorted into age brackets
Age Females single sorted into age brackets
I did this rather simplistically generating 4 columns (F through I) and then using COUNTIF (although I know there is a better way than the lame way I used COUNTIF but that is not the point right now).
However, my question is, can I generate the data described above (located in D13:I22 on my spreadsheet) without going through the messy, cumbersome step of creating extra columns?

I would like a macro to find the columns named "apple" and "peach" and delete them. These would always be in row 1 but would always be in different column letters which is why I want the macro to simply find these columns by their name and not by their column letter.
And yes, I do mean the entire column altogether, shifting entire columns to the left. Wipe it off the face of the earth
1. Remove J,K,N,A Columns,
2. In the last O (TIMESTAMP) column, the date is 14-Jul-09 format change it to 07/14/2009 (this format mm/dd/yyy
3.Filter L column (VAL_INLAKH) Remove all rows from whole sheet which has 0 value
4. Column C (EXPIRY_DT) date format is 24-Sep-09 , "dd-Sep-09" change to "Sep" only
5.Merge Column B,C,D,E (SYMBOL.EXPIRY_DT.STRIKE_PR.OPTION_TYP

One of my colleagues wants Excel only to show whole thousands, but I am not sure how to do this
For example, if the number is 78654.98, he only wants it to show 78.
Is this possible?
On my indows XP box, when I type a number into an Excel spreadsheet and it is in "General" format, the numbers appears like this (examples):
1234567
or this:
7.125
or this:
8.1
I want them to look just like that except for the first one, which I want to have the thousands separator:
1,234,567
I don't want to use a number format because
Excel makes you set a specific number of decimal places...I want the decimal places to float depending on how many decimal places there are in the entered number (just like the "General" format does). So basically, I want a "General" format, but with thousands separators (commas).
I tried using something like ###,###.### but that leaves a decimal place at the end of each integer (i.e. "123,456.") which is also not acceptable.
I am writing some code for a fast vlookup. I have the following template. The formulas in column AU and AX need to be automated. actual file has 170000 rows, so the vba code needs to be fast.
AU formula is: =VLOOKUP(A2,$BA$2:$BC$180000,3,FALSE)
AX formula is: = IF(AN2 = "Test1","To be adjusted",
IF(OR(AN2="Test2",AN2="Test3"),VLOOKUP(A2,$BE$2:$BF$180000,2,FALSE),
VLOOKUP(A2,$BA$2:$BC$180000,2,FALSE)))
Basically I want to be able to type a number and have a colon inserted two spaces to the left. So 123 would become 1:23, 1234 would be 12:34 and 12345 would be 123:45.
I'm working with anywhere from one to several thousand hours in a spreadsheet. I'd like to be able to use a time mask like this:
i want to know how to numberformat numbers (Currency) into thousands,lakhs.
For example i m having amount in colmun D like 1239.00 i want to format the numbers in this column as Currency with thousand seperator and lakh seperator. like1,239.00 or 1,23,900.0
In our language the thousand groups between numbers are separated with a space, like 2 345 345. (so we do not use , or . ) How can I do it in a macro, is there any possibility?
How should I change this: MERGEFIELD brutto # ### # ## ### Ft.
(I know this is without braces, I cant copy them). so this gives me a result 2345678 Ft. and I want 2 345 678 Ft.
I'm using the record macro function to make a code that is concerned with formatting information generated in excel by another software program.
My original idea was to replace the information in column F with the concatenated info of column F-L, but I couldn't get this to work either. So now I'm looking for a work around for my work around.
I can get the macro to work just fine with "Macro 1" below, but unfortunately when I use the entire column range, it populates thousands and thousands of rows below the (around 50) lines of information I have. However, the populated information in my sheet is completely variable - it could be 1 line or 5000 lines. These will also be printed, so I cannot just cap the range at 5000 because then it would print all of the blanks.
I tried several work-arounds after googling. I tried to leave the blanks and then delete them once they were populated - messy, and it crashed excel. I tried End(xlUp) and I tried using lngLastRow = ActiveSheet.Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
how to only copy the formula in Column M to the last row of information (which would be the row with the last value in Column A).
MACRO 1:
Columns("M:M").Select

"=CONCATENATE(RC6, "" "", RC7, "" "", RC8, "" "", RC9, "" "", RC10, "" "", RC11, "" "", RC12)"
Range("M:M").End(xlDown).Select
Columns("M:M").Select
Selection.Copy
Columns("F:F").Select
[code].....
MACRO 2 (Only the Changes):
ActiveSheet.Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Select
Range("M" & lngLastRow).Select
Selection.FormulaR1C1 = _
"=CONCATENATE(RC6, "" "", RC7, "" "", RC8, "" "", RC9, "" "", RC10, "" "", RC11, "" "", RC12)"

We have created a userform with several textbox for numbers. We'd like to show them with a format similar to "###,##0.00" and allow the users to enter numbers without commas, but always show the textbox formated. Is there any special way to manage this format? As the textbox is a "text" value, how can we manage the input and the numbers? Should we always replace the "," withi a nullstring? Example:
Private Sub tbCakPrice_Exit(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
tbCakPrice.Text = Format(Val(tbCakPrice.Value), "######0.00")
tbPxCakCnFCgl.Value = Format(Val(tbCakPrice.Value) + Val(tbFleteRealCgl.Value), "########0.00")

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to calculate weighted average cost for a list of thousands of items.
I will try to explain this as best I can.
Column A is item. Column B is Mode. Column C is Volume. Column D is Cost
There are only 2 Transmode Per Item. So each item is pretty much listed twice and I need to calculate the weighted average cost per item.
I know how to use the SUMPRODUCT function to calculate weighted average and could slowly go through the spreadsheet item by item calculating this, but is there a way to do this with some sort of formula? Similar to a Subtotal that would recognize each change item and calculate the Weighted Average at that change.

Question 1: how i can automatically add a cell into a formula by just clicking the cell to be added? in other words, say i typed an "=" sign in a cell and want to add a number of cells just by clicking the mouse without having to type the "+" sign after selecting each cell. the formula will just appear as > =A1+B1+C1 by default with each click of the mouse. Is there a default setting that can be set so the plus sign will appear with each click?
Question 2: how can i set a comma to appear for all thousands, (i.e. 1,000) without having to format each cell individually to show commas?? in other words that any spreadsheet i open will always insert comas for numbers larger by a thousand?
I am working on a excel sheet that tracks thousands of records. Basically, have 400+ employee's who have scores that need to be tracked. The scores are % based... to start we have 15+ columns but all that matter for these calculations is probably 3. We have score 1 which their required to hit 90% score 2 which is 80%, they are seperate scores. Some people dont count so we disqualify the formula from counting a 0. My current forumla is...
COUNTIF(K418,"<90")+COUNTIF(N418,"<80")-COUNTIF(N418,"=0") where the rows change for each record. We are counting the # of times they don't hit their goal. They can only be held accountable for one score a month not for both scores so created a 2nd column which has =IF(O418>=1,1,0) so if it came back with 2 counts it changed it to 1. OK, so background explained
Now the tricky part... we have a running total per month of how many times they did not hit their goal. We have a column with the mm/yyyy. So we have a pivot table which breaks down the associates by name department etc... and once completely drilled down into it gives a breakdown of their score for every month and then if they did or did not hit their goal by referencing the previous field I discussed. Currently it has a running sum, but I am stuck on the twist I need to throw in... if they meet their goal for 3 months straight, 1... we will call it "occurence" drops off. So for example.... Jan 1 Occurence, Feb 0, Mar 0, Apr 0. So in this case, Jan, Feb, Mar need a running total of 1. Once april hits, the running total needs to go back to 0. So if they got an "occurence" in May, the running total would go back to 1 instead of the current 2 my sum shows.
I imagine there has to be some way I can do this, but I have been thinking about this and hit a brick wall. Any idea's at all? For reference column A is the mm/yyyy (which can be reformatted differently pretty easily). Column K is score 1, column N is score 2, those are the 3 fields I reference for my forumulas currently, the pivot table uses everything else.
Here is an example of one associate.... the top row is the average for the associate and the sum of "occurences"... I want to or plan to have a running total section added on the side however if possible. This associates running total should be 2 instead of 3 as there was a 3 month gap for Mar, Apr, May so it would have been -1 in May as explained above.
