Determining When Event Occurs Most Frequently?
Dec 3, 2013
I have a list of data that is the day of the month(1-31) that an event has occurred. (sample data in attachment) I want to find some way to find when the "hottest" time of the month is when the events are occuring.
how to get the end result. I think for myself a chart of some sort would be good to see visually, or some kind of statistical breakdown.
My only requirement is that the list is always being added to, so the end result needs to be updating with the complete list.
Im not an expert in excel, so the more details on how to do this the better. Even better would be creating it in the attachment, and uploading your version so I can see exactly how you did it.
I am going to be taking this idea and apply it in the same way for day of week (1-7) and time of day.

I have a list of numbers in an Excel range. Most of the numbers are the same but some are not. I need a function that will go through the list and return the value which occurs most frequently. (Not the number of occurences but the actual value). I need to do this in VBA.

I am using a formula that finds the most frequently occuring text from a range of cells that have the text 'Ra' 'Ma', 'Mo' or 'Mi' in them (each cell has a drop down list with these text items only). I am currently using this formula to find which of the four text items appears most frequently in the range:
=INDEX(D6:D15,MATCH(MAX(INDEX(COUNTIF(D6:D15,D6:D15),0)),INDEX(COUNTIF(D6:D15,D6:D15),0),0))
This formula works fine in a case where there is more of one text item than any other, but when there are two items with the same number of entries, this formula comes back with the item that fulfils the criteria first - i.e. if 'Ra' appears 5 times and 'Mo' appears 5 times, then either could come back, depending on which appears first in the range.
The text items rate in importance with 'Ra' being the most important, then 'Ma', then 'Mo', then 'Mi' is the least important. What I am trying to do is, in cases where more that one text item appears the same number of times, get the formula to display the one that is the most important. So for example 'Ra' will always appear over 'Mo' if both have 5 entries, but 'Mo' will appear over 'Mi' if 'Mo' and 'Mi' both have the most entries.

I have 12,000 rows on my excel spread sheet of data and my average volume for all those days are 17,661,398.6
I noticed that the so called average did not show up not even once in all of the 12,000 rows. Thus I conclude that the average is not normal ? How to find & highlight the most frequently occurring number, the usual, and or the normal numbers?

I have a few columns referencing Crash numbers. The majority of each column is a null value, with about 10-20% of it actually containing the number of a Crash. I want to run one MODE each on a column to see what the most common Crash is.
The following
=MODE(Table_X[Crash Alpha])
Results in a #N/A Value Not Available error. What do I need to change to make it work on the column with some nulls and some numbers (no strings)?
As a secondary question, if I wanted to apply a date filter (the columns are part of a table, including a Date column) like the below:
If(Table_X[DateTime]>F9,If(Table_X[DateTime]<F9+1, etc.)
(F9 being the location where my filter Date is)
Where would I apply that to the Mode? Should I just change it to an If statement, with the Mode positioned like so?
=If(Table_X[DateTime]>F9,If(Table_X[DateTime]<F9+1, MODE(Table_X[Crash Alpha]))

I have a horizontal bar chart in which some of the bars represent positive values and others represent negative values.
How to format the bars so the "positive" bars are shaded in one colour and "negative" bars in another colour? I'd prefer not to change the bar colour manually as the values change frequently.

I'd like to create a macro to display the top 5 most frequently occurring repairs on sheet 3 of my workbook. I'd like the macro to analyse all the sheets in my workbook except for the first 3 and then output the results on the 3rd sheet from T50 onward. I have attached a template as an example of how all the sheets in the workbook look (excluding the first 3).
All the sheets have the same layout as the "Survey Template" worksheet.The repairs are located under the Log Book Review of Historical Structural Repair in the Survey Template worksheet and all the repairs are picked through a drop down list that is based on a table of repairs listed in the Parts and Prices sheet within the workbook. I have assigned random serial numbers to the repairs (if that makes it any easier to code instead of locating exact string matches).

In the middle of one of my subroutines, my function sometimes hits an error (Subscript Out of Range: because it's looking for a string when it is not there).
If this error occurs, I want it to then look for a different string.
So I ONLY want this other string search to occur if I get an error at that point in the code. I've tried "On Error GoTo ....." but it's doing that GoTo everytime, even if no error occurs. I also can't put "Exit sub" before the On Error statement, because there is a lot of code after this point as well.

I have a list of numbers like
A B C D E
1. 8 1 4 7 6
2. 7 4 6 7 8
and so on. In another sheet I also have numbers such
A B C D E
4 3 8 9 0
I want to be able to compare any numbers that occur in sheet 2 that are in the rows in sheet 1 and turn the cells a colour for example turn the cell green if the number occurs.

With Range("H2:H5000")
.FormulaR1C1 = "= SUMPRODUCT(('Data Sheet'!R2C11:R5000C11=RC1)*('Data Sheet'!R2C81:R5000C81=""G - Prior policy incident handling errors""))"
.Copy
.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues
End With
Right now its simply counting, but what I need it to do is to sum col L if col A matches col K. Col L contains numbers, and I need a sum of those numbers if the match occurs in A & K.

I have a list of data, integer values ranging from 0 to 36. Imagine a Roulette wheel. The list is long, with over one hundred data points. I would like to view the first 14 data points, and count how many times each value occurs. How many 0's? How many 1's? How many 2's?...How many 36's?
Obviously, many values will have 0 occurrences. Most will have 1 occurrence, some 2, and maybe one or two will have 3 occurrences. I doubt we will see a value with 4 or more occurrences, but it is possible. With this accomplished, I will then note the results. So, that accomplishes the first 14 data points, call them 1-14.
Then, I want to move down the list 1 data point, and repeat the process. So, here I am looking at data points 2-15. Basically, it's the same set of data, with the first point missing, and a new point added on. I will then note the results. I want to continue doing this until the last 14 are viewed.

Is there a way to write a Worksheet_SelectionChange (ByVal Target As Range) event in module after creating a sheet in VBA? I constantly delete a sheet, then repopulate it with a new one that is empty, but I need to add some code that happens if they should change a particular cell. It worked when I ran it on a worksheet without refreshing, but as soon as I cleared and repopulated the sheet, it was gone. Is there a way to preserve this?

The following formula is in cell A3: A3=IF(A2="X",A1+365,""). Rather than A3 displaying only 1 year, I would like for it to update after that day occurs to =A1+730, and then A1+1095, and so on.

I'm using this code to run a macro whenever data is entered/removed from a cell within a range. (two macros and two cell ranges).
[Code] .....
Now I need to do the same thing for a different cell range (E3:E52) and a different macro (FormatChart2). Do I need to make a new Private sub or can I add it into the existing code?

I have a whole spreadsheet of data which looks confusing so I need to make it look more attractive to the viewer.
I have column A which shows a number of the branch conducting the transaction and the column will contain numerous different branches which I have sorted into branch order.I think there are too many branches to use the conditional formatting condition (probably 5000 different numbers)
What I wish to do is change the colour of the cell when the branch name changes.
For example
Column A= Branch number
123
123
123
345
345
345
456
456
456
789
789
What I need is to highlight all branches 123 with a colour (any colour say red) but when the change in branch number occurs to 345 use a different colour to highlight all the branches (cells) with the number 345 (say grey).Then when the branch changes to 456 use the same colour that highlighted branch 123 (ie red) .Then again when the branch changes to 789 change the colour back to grey again so the spreadsheet shows rows highlighted when a different branch occurs
The above example would look like
Column A
all branches with 123 ( cell highlighted any colour but say red)
branches 345 cells highlighted grey
branches 456 cells highlighted red
branches 789 grey

I am looking for a formula which will find the oldest date for a specific set of search criteria:
A1 A2 A3 A4 A5 A6
05JUL2008 06JUL2008 07JUL2008 08JUL2008 09JUL2008 10JUL2008
B1 B2 B3 B4 B5 B6
Cat Dog Pig Cat Pig Dog
So if possible I would like a formula that searches through and returns
C1 (Search for Pig) = 07JUL2008
C2 (Searcg for Cat) = 05JUL2008
C3 (Search for Dog) = 06JUL2008

I want to isolate text on either side of dashes ( " - " ) that occur either 2 or 3 times in a single cell.
Example:
Apples - Pears - 99 - 100+ years
Bananas - 56 - 57+ years
In particular, I would like to capture the "99 - 100+ years" and "56 - 57+ years" text on its own.
I tried this " =SUBSTITUTE(A1, "*- ", "", 1) but it doesn't work

I am having problems with the function vlookup. I attached an excel file of my problem. It seems to pull the correct lookup, then it pulls the wrong data until a correct one occurs. My excel attachment should make more since of my problem. It will also pull data that is invalid. For example, the name "S5" is not a in my original data so it should not be able to find that?? Sorry, this is hard to explain - let me know if the file is not clear enough.
