Distinguishing Between Text And Value (formula)
Apr 10, 2014
is there a formula i could use to distinguish between a character being text or a character being value?
i.e.
Cell A1 = 1
Cell A2 = G
=If(A1="value",TRUE,FALSE), answer = TRUE
=If(A2="text",TRUE,FALSE), answer = TRUE

VBA code which can distinguish whether a cell has been edited by:
selecting an option from a data validation list (DVL)
or
manually editing the text in a cell?
The ""Show error alert after invalid data is entered"" option is unticked to allow both selection from the DVL as well as free format text entries.
The problem arises when using the code below which makes an edited cell within a range display the new value as well as the prior value(s). This works well when using the DVL but not when editing the cell.
Is there any code which can distinguish between the 2?

I want to make an excel funktion than can distinguish between 3 variables. The three variables are the outcomes of my first function which are 0, 1 and 2 these IF functions can be seen below:
=IF(B11>52;"1";"0")
=IF(B12>5;"1";"0")
Then when I have these results I have tried the following function:
=IF(C11+C12=2;"6-12";"4-6")
By using this function I get an output for 2 (true) and 0 (false), but I would also like an output for 1 (which would be 6 in my work)
It looks like this:
Var 1 58 1
Var 2 4 0
Suggestion 4-6
So in the above case where the sum of var1 and var2 is 1 it is only counted as false for not being 2 and therefore = 4-6 instead of what I would like it to be = 6 (for 1)

The following formula looks through a list of names (in this case, looking for Joe Smith) in the monthly tab (in this case, MARCH) from column B and enters the calculated value associated with that name from column G. The formula works fine, but when there is no value in column G, it returns a 0% (format in the receiving cell is set for %). This would be fine, but since it does not distinguish between a true 0% and a blank cell, this is causing a problem.
=SUMIF(MARCH!B2:B31,"Joe Smith",MARCH!$G$2:$G$31)

Suppose I have a cell containing the formula:
Code:
=INDIRECT("'"&B$3&"'!J"&ROW($J11))
Which pulls data in from another sheet in the workbook. If the referenced cell is empty, this has value 0.
I'd like to then include this cell in the calculation of an average, ignoring it if the cell it pulls from is empty but including it if that cell contains 0.

I am trying to find a formula that will count the number of unique entries there. I have tried the solutions posted on various websites to no avail (most recently:
Code:
=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(MATCH(A1:A10,A1:A10,0),MATCH(A1:A10,A1:A10,0))>0,1))
).
The answer should be 4,457.

I have an existing Cash Flow Report that has a column of abbreviated/shortened (WBS Element) title where each cell contains a unique three lettered/numbered amount of characters (Example: 200). These three abbreviated character cells are specific and relate to their full/longer (SAP WBS Element) title (Example: WBS DWRRI-BW066-200).
In my attached excel model (Find, Locate, and Align WBS Elements to Cash Flow Report.xlsx), I need a formula for the, "Cash Flow Report WBS Elements" sheet in cells B3 thru B11 that will look at the abbreviated three lettered/numbered (WBS Element) titles in cells C3 thru C11, then search and recognize its unique counterpart contained in the, "SAP WBS Elements Export" sheet and return this full/longer (SAP WBS Element) title to the, "Cash Flow Report WBS Elements" sheet in cells B3 thru. B11, just to the left of its abbreviated/shortened (WBS Element) title.

I am working on sales information which includes postcodes. What i need to do is seperate the first or first two text characters from the rest of the postcode. I have attached a small snipet of what i am working on. Currently i am using the =Left(A4,2) but this will give me in some case a numerical value aswell. For example E1 or G1 in the case of the sample attached. Is there a formula that exists where it will just return the text values in a cell and not numerical values.

I have a worksheet with several columns. I need a formula to search column D only and each time a specific location is identified to replace that location with alternate text. Example (ORIGNAL TEXT):
Column Dtext to text help.xlsx
BIRD
FISH
DOG
BAT
BUG
I need to search that listing and each time the word BIRD is mentioned have it replaced with FEATHERS and each time DOG is listed have it replaced with TAILS Final result would look like:
FEATHERS
FISH
TAILS
BAT
BUG
All other text should stay the same and replacement text should appear in the cell of the text it is replacing. This is a sheet used by multiple people several times a day and so the Find/Replace option really won't work.
Have working on this for at least 6 months and it just isn't going to happen for me. I thought I could use a Conditional format, but that is producing no results either.

I have a situation where I have to curve fit data, this can lead to different formulas being used with varying constants.
Is it possible to pickup a TEXT based formula and related constants from other cells, and then place this into another cell as a functioning formula. For Example
Cell A1 contains the formula as a text string whether it be y=a+bx+cx^2, or y=a+b/x, etc
Cells A2:A6 contain the individual constants, a, b, c, etc
I would then want the VBA to read the text based formula and put it into an output cell as a functioning excel formulae.g
In cell B10: =a+b*A10+c*A10^2
I understand picking the constants up and putting the formula should not be too much of an issue, however trying to insert the variable form of the curve fit is the part that I am struggling with, and am unsure if possible.

I would like to copy a formula in a cell and then paste only the text of the formula, but I can't figure it out. Basically, I would like to avoid going into the cells and absolute referencing or hitting F2, then copying the text.
When I hit "Ctrl C" to copy the cell, then hit "Alt/E/S/F/Enter" to paste the formula, it is just like a regular copy/paste formula-wise in that the references move.

This is going to be hard to explain but, ill give it a try
I have a list of formula written in text in columnB
(-0.0045*x^3+0.2696*x^2-6.0587*x+100)/100
(-0.0045*(x*1.3)^3+0.2696*(x*1.3)^2-6.0587*(x*1.3)+100)/100
(-0.0045*(x*1.5)^3+0.2696*(x*1.5)^2-6.0587*(x*1.5)+100)/100
(-0.0045*(x*0.8)^3+0.2696*(x*0.8)^2-6.0587*(x*0.8)+100)/100
(-0.0045*(x*1.3)^3+0.2696*(x*1.3)^2-6.0587*(x*1.3)+100)/100
(-0.0045*(x*1.5)^3+0.2696*(x*1.5)^2-6.0587*(x*1.5)+100)/100
each formula correspond to a type of road in columnA
Rural Local
Rural Collector
Rural Arterial
Urban Local
Urban Collector
Urban Arterial
I would like to create a formula that will choose the right formula and substitute the variable "x" by a specific cell (lets put $Z$1) to finally give me the final answer in column C.

I am using =INDEX(7:7,MATCH(9.99999999999999E+307,7:7)) to return the current price of a product. I would like to be able to have the formula return either a text value (discontinued) or the current price, ie column G contains the current price and if it is a discontinued item I could just type in "dis" instead of the price when updating the sheet.

I am currently in the making of a new financial plan template and I am having a problem arranging all of the rows in an orderly manner. I was wondering if i could have a sentence and at the end of the sentence a number figure. I cannot use a cell to the right because that way there is a gap and it looks pretty bad.

I'm trying to create a formula for text to columns if a SKU is put into a box.
Ex) I put code 5495307H7G-**--A into cell A1. I need to split it after specific positions, so it breaks into nine individual codes (9 cells) in the adjacent boxes.
549 53 07 H 7 G- ** -- A
I've seen formulas for searching for spaces and splitting, but is there a way to split one long code at specific points?

So let's say the following text is in cell A1:
Scott Feldman (hou) - throws R vs. ari - 8:10 PM ET - Minute Maid Park RotoGuru ESPN MLB Yahoo BB-Ref FanGraphs
What formula would I need in cell B1 to return "Minute Maid Park" But if possible don't return anything after that text starting with the word RotoGuru?
Best way it looks like is to find the 3rd " - " and take whats to the right of that?

I have an excel work book that I want to extract certain info from Each tab where in the result tab I use this formula to get required data from another tab.
I has about 24 tab , in the 25th one i collect data from all previous , using below formula inside each cell to get
=INDEX('2014 wk12'!$C$1:$C$17,MATCH("Total LTD Result",'2014 wk12'!$A$1:$A$17,0))
Where 2014 wk12 is a tab name , so , it works fine
excel iss.png
What i want is t replace the sheet name which in previous example is 2014 wk12 with relative name in column A
The closest i have in mind is to make it as below ( it is not working ) so what shall be the working formula of the below
=INDEX('Tab name from Column A '!$C$1:$C$17,MATCH("Total LTD Result",'Tab name from Column A'!$A$1:$A$17,0))

I was wondering if there is a formula to change cell C2 to "Red" (One uppdercase, the rest lowercase) or if this was only possible through macro?
Also, would there be a way to combine B2 & C2? I apologize, but that was the only logical way I could think of to get the output in C2.

I am trying to create my household budget in Excel, but there is a sub-category.
I need a formula which will calculate the following:
Under the "Daily living" section, I have typed the names of the sub-categories, eg: ,
Groceries
General Household
Cleaning
Education/Lessons
Cash
I want it to find all totals next to the word "groceries" in the main part of the spreadsheet, where I type in my credit card statements according to date.
In other words, I want it to add up all my entries/totals next to the word 'groceries' and show the total up at the top of the document, in the "amount" column so I can see the monthly category totals at a glance.
