I am using the following math formula in cell C12:
=IF(B12="","",IF(B12<2,-1,INT(B12/5)))
What I want to do is if cell B3 equals a text value of the word "All" then cell B12 would display nothing. If B3 equals any other value then the math formula above be used.
I'm having to re-learn formula commands in order to continue to use my spreadsheets (I had tried to get the Quattro Pro converter to work in Excel 2003 with no success). Actually, I would have stayed with QP since I find it much more user friendly, but with Excel being the standard spreadsheet that most people use, I figured I better get used to it. Anyway, I'm currently trying to find out how I might get the same text that shows up in varying cells in an otherwise blank column (other cells contain formulas, but no text) to also show up in another fixed cell (which can be where I put this formula).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to display watermark text in a cell based on the value of another cell. For example:
If in Column B, cell B2 states "Mileage", Column C, cell C2 needs to say "Please enter Start and Destination...". I want column C (cell C2) to be my input cell as well hence the reason i'm avoiding the use of an IF formula.
I'm open to a VBA solution if this works? Tried conditional formatting however it will only display colours, not text?
Has anyone ever seen a problem like this? The Legend text is not displaying what is in the cell reference and I cannot figure out why.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a Cell and the Formula for my Cell is the Following:
Code:
="Week Ending " & 'A01'!D248
The A01 Worksheet displays the value as 4/21/2012 . However, the first worksheet displays the value as
Code:
Week Ending 41020
rather than

Week Ending 4/21/2012
What can I do to display the cell the way that I want to? I've already tried formatting the cell directly as Date to no avail.
I need to display all text after first comma in a cell in another cell. For example
Text in A1 = 1.1, 1.2, 1.3. I need to display in B1 all the text after the first comma which would be = 1.2, 1.3
I was looking to have a Word for example 'Apple' but want it as a number e.g '10'. I want to use it so that I can add up the prices of items by just clicking on the name of the item. So If I want to add up 3 items e.g. an apple , a banana and a pear which all cost £10 each I want to be able to click all three items and get the total of £30 displayed in a certain box.

I try to import a very large text string into an Excel cell. I notice that
it's truncated to a certain maximum length.
When I set the cell type to be TEXT it displays #########################
But when I set cell type to GENERAL then it displays ok.
I just did a Len() on my text cell and it appears the maximum characters
allowed is 330. Is it possible to extend this?

I'm using an Excel spreadsheet as a database (mostly text based), so that in columns 1 and 2 are names and in column 3 is notes. I'm keeping all the columns single height (ie: not wrapping text). Where there is nothing in column 4 onwards, the text from column 3 displays across the subsequent blank fields.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a variable COMTXT that loads (via loop) several short lines of text to form a "mouthful" of comments together. But have 2 issues with it.
1- I need to add a carriage return after loading each short line of text. [code] Module1.COMTXT = Module1.COMTXT + Sheets(3). Cells(Module1.COMCODE, 1)
[?CODE]I have try'd [& vbCrLf &] in many syntax's to no avail.
2- When displaying COMTXT to a sheet, its too big for the cell ! and not able to enlarge the cell without major disortion to rest of sheet. How do I acheive this and allow the text to display like a textbox or label, covering many cells and rows.
The formula contained within these cells equals =MONTH(C84) [the date 2 cells above it]... to which I've formatted the cell to "mmmm" and it displays "January" across the board. Can anyone explain why this is occuring and how I can fix it please? I'm aiming to graph this information and can't accurately do it using the moving monthly system i've put in place if I can't change the months dynamically like this.
Secondly, and on a side note. Line 84 currently takes todays date (not currently todays date in the example screenshot) (=TODAY()), and to get to the previous 13 months I deduct 31 days. I can foresee this as being a problem further down the track especially when leap years come into play. Is there a function in Excel where I can simply deduct 1 month from another? =MONTH(C84)-1 ?
The basic spreadsheet consists of a list of names down the left hand side with 19 columns across - one for each art activity (I have pasted a copy of it below - but it doesn't paste so good!). Each person has selected their three activities and this has been recorded by placing a 1, 2 or 3 in the relative columns. Each person has been told that they will get a place on two out of three of their chosen activities (in which case we will change one of their choices to a 0).
What I would now like to be able to do is to create a mail merge in Word which looks at each person and then goes along that row to find out which columns have a 1, 2, or 3 in it. The heading for that column would then be used as a merge field so that I end up with a word document which looks something like this:

Which function we can use. I tried Vlookup but was not successfull.
I have attached a work book example of what i am trying to do.
Column D is what i originally did in terms of the formula and now i have to have a column display text dependant on what is in column A to C.
I was trying this formula =IF(b2>a2,"Start Target Missed",IF(c2="","Failed","Tracking")) However if this isnt working.
Is there anything i can do to change this?
Refer to the attached worksheet. On entering a value into cell C7, I'd like the value of the adjacent column D7 to be displayed in F6. Then when a value is entered in manually into C8, it will then update and put the value of D8 into F6. The idea is an individual will enter a value each week, updating that value. I intend to hide column D.

TWO more days to turkey day. 3 more to BF --- yaaaaak! Anyway,
Iam trying to display only 3 workdays in each of three cells. Days displayed depend on today's date.
I am usinf the following but it displays SAT and SUN.
Q3 = today's date
=UPPER(TEXT(Q3+2,"DDDD")) displays THURSDAY
=UPPER(TEXT(Q3+3,"DDDD")) displays FRIDAY
=UPPER(TEXT(Q3+4,"DDDD")) displays SATURDAY -- would like it to display MONDAY
Q3 changes to reflect today's date
therefore this would display:
=UPPER(TEXT(Q3+2,"DDDD")) displays THURSDAY
=UPPER(TEXT(Q3+3,"DDDD")) displays FRIDAY
=UPPER(TEXT(Q3+4,"DDDD")) displays MONDAY
In other words I want to display only the week days in these 3 cells.
I tried:
=TEXT(WEEKDAY(INDIRECT("Q3")),"dddd")
but "Q3 + 2" will not work
the end result desired:
MONDAY
TUESDAY
WEDNESDAY
TUESDAY

Am trying to create a simple spreadsheet with some multiplication functions on it. Using this example:
Cell A1 = 5 (multiplicand) x
Cell A2 = 10 (multiplier) =
Cell A3 = 50 (product)
All is well providing I have a number value in cells A1 and A2. When I don't, I would like them to remain blank, as well as A3, the product. The problem I face is when I remove the values in either A1 or A2, what's displayed in A3 turns to the word - #VALUE!. Which also shows up on the printed page.
My question is, like removing the checkmark for "zero values" under tools and options to prevent the "0"'s from being displayed, is there a way of preventing the word "#VALUE!" from being displayed when the values for the multiplicand and/or multiplier have been removed?
Is there a command or macro to display the name of a sheet in a cell?
I know how to do it in a header or footer, but not in a cell.
I need to copy the name that appears at the bottom of a spreadsheet in a cell at the top -- no need to reference the name of a different sheet, just the same one the cell is on.
Each time my spreadsheet is modified and saved, I would like the date of this action to appear in a cell. I think this may involve VBA but I'm not sure.
Let's just say, the cell is L54. I am using Excel 2007.
I have a row of raw quality control data, but some are not in control and should not be used in the calculation of statistical data. There are not a lot of them, so I can manually select these (I use a red fill color for the cell to signify bad data), but I would like to be able to keep these data displayed but not have them included in the calculations.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy head hurts from working on this all day. I have a large spreadsheet and in the top left corner I need to show the percent of vehicles that are not working out of our whole pool. I have a function that detects the color of the cell (Red is broke) and counts the total of red cells and then divides it by the total giving the percent and it is in G118 for Jan 1/2007, H118 for Jan 2/2007 etc. I made a function that will count Julian days from Jan 1, so for today I get 114. I know I need to display G + 114 columns but have no idea how to get that column name from this and always display the current one in the corner.

I have column k with street name.
In column iv i have an x an number or it is empty.
What I want to do is press a button and it starts at iv10 read that cell if empty then read iv11 etc.
When it reads x in the cell then read next witch will be a number.
Example:
iv10
iv11
iv12
iv20 x
iv21 21
So I would get columns a - ae and rows 10 - 21 displayed and wait till i press button again then when i press button it starts
Example
iv22
iv23
iv89 x
iv90 68
then it would display a-ae 22 - 90
I'm looking for a way to insert / display images in a worksheet depending on the value in a cell. The following link is able to do what I need, but it's very limited - i.e. all images must be present in the worksheet first and only the one require is visible:
McGimpsey & Associates : Excel : Display picture based on cell value
I'd prefer to store the images in a normal folder in windows (for a large library of images) and have Excel retrieve the image somehow.
I have 3 'speedometer' type images one for green, one for amber and one for red. I need to display ONE of these on a number of occasions depending on the value of a cell.
E.g.
If the value is 8.0 or above then I want to display the green one
If the value is 4.0 or above but below 8.0 I want to display the amber one
If the value is less than 4.0 I want to display the red one
see attached. The only reason why I include an attachment is because the computer I am using at work is crippled and I cannot download a program which would allow me to display in the message body. A10:C12 is to be a summary of the respective values in A30:C36. I want a formula which will find the first occurrence of a revision number in B30 to B36 and apply the date in the cell to the left to the respective revision number to the above summary date column [[A10 to A12]. B30 to B36 is always unsorted order. It has to allow for lines in A30:C36 which have no entries. Line 32 and Line 33 is an example of this.
In other words, based on the above example, A10 would show date 02/01/06, A11 would show 03/22/06, and A12 would show 04/14/06. Each revision number in B30 to B36 is consistent with regard to the particular revision being the same date. The reason for wanting first occurence is because any one revision in the summary may consist of a number of revision amounts below, each having the same revision number. inally, although I would like to retain the particular column order in the example, if necessary, I can reverse A1 and B2.
look at the attached. In the estimate tab look at the box highlighted in yellow. Then look at the cells in pink (row 70). F70 is selecting the lowest maintenance value from the yellow box but I want C70 to display the hours associated to that value. The correct hours will need to appear according to what value is displayed. (this sounds confusing but look at the formula in F70 and you will hopefully see what im trying to achieve).
