Determining If Two Cell Are Approximately Equal?
Dec 17, 2013Currently using "=IF(CC3=CF3,1,0)"
I would like to loosen this up by +/- 1.5% of the difference between the two cell values would produce a positive result.

One aspect of my Excel-based project involves comparing the operator-entered part number (in Excel) to a predetermined list of part numbers in one column of an Access database table. Right now, my program is telling me that every part number entered in the spreadsheet (50+) does not match any part number in the database, which I've verified to be incorrect. I've checked that both the spreadsheet part number and the database part number are of the string datatype.
To the best of my knowledge, my looping logic seems valid and robust. To the best of my knowledge, there are no hidden characters in either the database cells or in the spreadsheet cells causing this apparent mismatch. I'm completely stumped at this point as to why my program doesn't detect any matches between the spreadsheet and the database table. Below is the Sub containing the code for checking that the part numbers match:

This issue seems to be a hybrid issue between Excel and Access with (to me) more of the issue on the Access end.
I have a number of large CSV files with approximately 1.9 million rows, (this is more then excel can bring in). I typically have to import/delimit the files when brining them into excel. However, when I try this I get the message not all data imported. I would like to be able to split the records in the csv file to multiple tabs in the excel woorkbook when doing the import/delimit but do not know how to accomplish this. The delimit of the data varies each time due to the nature of the data so doing a macro is more trouble to create each time. Currently I am having to open the csv file in notepad and split it up into multiple files then import each new file seperately.

Here the formula: =COUNTIFS(Data!C2:C24005,A17,Data!M2:M11149,"<=0")
I need to insert the formula in column C (Findings tab) which counts the rows in Column M (tab named "Data") that equal A17 (Column A in "Findings" tab) and which are less or equal zero. In addition if I drag the formula down I want to only the values be entered in highlighted in blue cells in column C (SKUs With Zero Sales in "Findings" tab) and empty cells in not highlighted cells. I attached images of these two tabs: Data and Findings.
I have a situation where I have a column with 10 numbers in it... say A1 - A10 each contain an equation that will solve to a numerical value. If one of these does not solve and gives me a "#VALUE!" response, how do I tell a function to look for that? I'm specifically attempting to use Match to find it, in this case "=MATCH("0",A1:A10,0)".
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 5 columns AS-AW. Column AS contains a letter (either A, B, C, D, E, F, or G) which is generated by a VLookup formula. Columns AT-AW contain numbers (from 1 to 6) generated by a conditional formula. I need column AX to combine column AS with the smallest of columns AT-AW. Is this possible?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm having trouble with a small vba macro. At the end of the macro I test to see if two variables are equal and then print out true or false. However, for some reason even though the variables are equal vba is not treating them that way. I have put the values that represent the variables on a spreadsheet and used the if(x1=x2) formula and it says it is true, also, when I debug the macro and watch the values when it comes to test the logical expression the numbers are the same. I don't understand why vba does not say that the two variables are equal. I have attached a screenshot of the breakpoint where I double check the values are equal.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two cells, both of which have drop down lists for options 'a' & 'b'. When one equals 'a' the other should be restricted into only saying 'b' and vice versa. I would also like the user to be reminded that he can only select 'a' once from the two menus. Ideally I would like to do this in a formula rather than VBA?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSimply need a cell to count another cell is equal to certain value.
For example if B3 has a value of 6 then I need J3 to equal 1 or if B3 is equal to 3 than I need G3 to equal one. I tried the the COUNTIF but I am sure i am using it incorrectly.
I would like to create a VBA code where it will delete the entire column if the cell value is equal to value in D2
For example:
Sub Delete_Columns()
Dim rng As Range, cell As Range, del As Range
Set rng = Intersect(Range("G2:S43"), ActiveSheet.UsedRange)
For Each cell In rng
If (cell.Value) = D2 _
Then
If del Is Nothing Then
Set del = cell
Else: Set del = Union(del, cell)
End If
End If
Next cell
On Error Resume Next
del.EntireColumn.Delete
End Sub
======
But I think this line is wrong but I am not sure how to fix it - If (cell.Value) = D2 _
I have a spreadsheet with some cells which return values using INDEX and MATCH to bring back the entire details of a person based on there membership number. However I require the comments to be attached with the returned values. The comments have there image in, rather than just text.
I have found some answers with vba, which do the process, however you had to manually enter the cell, from which the comment was to be copied from, into a pop up box. This involved finding the box myself to then select the box to take the comment from. In doing this I had found and read the comment, which is the is the process I'm trying to bypass.
I've been pounding away at a project for two days trying to determine a way to identify a solution, to no avail.
Here is some experimental code. Under the assumption that in Column "A", every fifth line contains some text (a, b, c, etc) I want to place a function in column B that would identify the closest occupied cell above and to the left of the cell containing the function. The sub achieves this, but the function has a problem because of the Activecell line. Is there a way to identify the location of the cell containing the function to act as a reference point for the range?
Sub find_last_heading()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
x = ActiveCell.Address
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Select
last_heading = ActiveCell.Text
Do Until last_heading ""
ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0).Select
last_heading = ActiveCell.Text
Loop
MsgBox last_heading
Range(x).Select
End Sub
Function cathead(Optional reference)
Dim cell
I need to identify rows where the contents of a given cell are equivalent to the cell below. I have managed to get this working based on iterating through the cells and selecting them both for cutting.
However it doesn't work effectively: It seems to be leaving blank lines in the original sheet and further fails after the first execution. I would be grateful for any suggestions on a good method to perform the following operations:
(1)to compare the cell with the cell below
I have used
If cell = cell.Offset(1, 0) Then
(2)to act on the rows for the two connected rows
Sub Test4()
' Loop through rows
Dim TheExtract As String
Dim cell As Range
'Application. ScreenUpdating = False
For Each cell In Worksheets("Sheet 1"). _
Range("A1", Worksheets("Sheet 1").Range("A65536").End(xlUp))
TheExtract = cell
If cell = cell.Offset(1, 0) Then
cell.Rows("1:2").EntireRow.Select
Selection.Cut
Sheets("Test").Select
ActiveCell.Offset(3, 0).Rows("1:1").EntireRow.Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown
End If
Next cell
'Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
I would like to program an Input Box that looks at the cell next to it to see if there is a value equal to zero in it. If there is a Zero in the cell an Input Box will popup and ask "what was the result". It would keep going down the column until there are no more values in column A.
In this example the Input Box would popup for the second line and the third line and then populate the values entered into C2 and C3 accordingly.
Ex
Col A Col B Col C
1 1 52
2 0
3 0
I have 2 worksheets, and I was wondering if I can have a cell from Sheet2 equal to the subtotal of the Autofilter criteria of a column in Sheet1.
I do have something working with macros but it takes a long time. This would make things a lot easier.
I am trying to write a macro which will hide and show row 15 based on the value which gets input into E9.
Part 1 here is working and when E9 = "DP Deliverable" row 15 does appear, but on the converse, when I input something besided DP Deliverable into E9, row 15 does not hude.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Address = "$E$9" Then
If Range("E9").Value = "DP Deliverable" Then
Call Show_DP
If Target.Address = "$E$9" Then
If Range("E9").Value "DP Deliverable" Then
Call Hide_DP
End If
End If
End Sub
I currently, manually create my production work orders using excel (in-house ERP system not good enough).
Rather than manually type in the names of products to be produced, I would like to have the number 1 = a production item and 2 = another and so on.....So basically when I type 1 in a cell it will automatically display a production item.
I imagine this to be a process where i would type all the names of my production items in individual cells, then create a formula to make 1 = a specific cell, 2, 3, 4, etc.....
if a certain cell does not equal zero i want a macro to run. But i'm having trouble getting the logic right. here's what i have so far
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Range("u82").Select
If Active.Selection 0 Then
Call unhide_addABBR
ElseIf Active.Select = 0 Then
Call hide_addABBR
end sub
The code below is an attempt to delete all rows where the cell in column A is not equal to the value of B1. B1 is text if that somehow makes a difference.
Dim n As Long, lastrow As Long
lastrow = Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row
For n = lastrow To 1 Step -1
If Cells(n, 1) <> Range("B1") Then Cells(n, 1).EntireRow.Delete
Next n
Do I need to specify that B1 will always be the cell to reference (ie $B$1). Edit: Just had an epiphany, I also need it to stop after Row 3. I have some headers and such that I don't want removed.
i need a bit of code that will display the values of selected cells in a message Box D4 & D10 & D185 is this possible

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a monthly forecast document that is updated by an operator monthly. At the end of the month, the operator presses a "Copy Accrual" macro that copies accruals for the month and stores them on a seperate tab. After sending the document back to the Finance team (necessary step due to software complications), Finance will send the operator back an updated file at beginning of next month. The operator than presses a "Paste Reversal" macro that is supposed to input the negative of the accrual stored in the seperate tab. The problem is that it is posting as the same value (not negative of value). I tried recording a Macro to fix this, but it did not work. An example of the code that came up with is:
Worksheets("Weekly Forecast").Select
Range("B9").FormulaR1C1 = "=-Accruals!RC[-4]"
Range("H9").Select
Selection.Copy
Range("H10:H33").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Thoughts on what to do? I think the two things that are throwing me off is the negative, and moving between the different sheets.
I need to be able to select a checkbox on my form and when selected, fill data from other cells on the form to other cells. Here is what I have so far

If CheckBox1.Value = True Then

Else If CheckBox1.Value = False Then
'do nothing

End Sub
But it does not work I get a compile error on the: Cell(F13).Value = Cell(B13).Value

=SUMPRODUCT($Q$13:$Q$309,($P$13:$P$309=$D20)*1,($O$13:$O$309=H$8)*1)
Basically each input should be a matrix and the first one really is. However the other two are not and look unfamiliar to me.

this is just an small sample of what i am working on i have got purchases, cogs and ending invenory for 2 years Products wise i want to add purchases for the particular product.
i.e. if for above data i want to find out the foundation purchased through june 2014 to aug 2014 what will be the formula
This seems way too simple to do yet I can't get it right. It will highlight some that are different and not highlight others that are different. I need to compare column A to O and highlight differences, B to P and highlight difference, and so on.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow could i change this formula so
If the previous cell "filled with a number" in column D is equal to C17 Then C18 otherwise c17
This is the formula
This formula is in D38
=IF(DAY(A38)=DAY($C$13),$C$17,)
This formula is in D65
I also need to apply the same to this formula
=IF(MOD(ROW(A38)-MATCH($C$13,A:A),7)=1,$C$17,)
Would like to know how to place validation on cell a2 to NOT EQUAL BLANK.
