I'm trying to get dropdown in cell. Depending on what is chosen, I then want another dropdown in the same cell of either New or Old for the item previously chosen. Hopefully the example helps because even I'm confused by this.
View 6 RepliesI'm trying to create a drop down list which returns values based on what has been selected in the previous drop down list in the adjacent cell, e.g. if 'Apples' is selected in the previous cell then you should only be able to select from 'Gala, Granny Smith', or if 'Oranges' is selected you should only be able to select 'Seville, Blood Orange'. Is there a formula which would do this, or can I use a pivot table somehow? I'm totally stumped.

is it possible inside this link to put a variable reference? for example to have a cell in my excel which in this case would be Report FY09 and if i change it to Repot FY08 the link would be c:Report FY08[PPV REVENUES FY 09 - Actual.xls]PPV Actual'!$C$4:$BB$4 or in another case if i have the name of the sheet like
='Report FY09'!D4
to do it
='Report FY08'!D4
or even the excel file
c:Report FY08[PPV REVENUES FY 09 - Actual.xls]PPV Actual'!$C$4:$BB$4
to do it
c:Report FY08[PPV REVENUES FY 08 - Actual.xls]PPV Actual'!$C$4:$BB$4
Each cell below contain a number and a time + ET. if like say i want to delete the time + ET and leave only the number inside all cell.

After formating I need to multiply by 2 . As you can see my Cells.Value = Selection.Value * 2 is not correct. How can I accomplish this?
With Range("I17:I4000", Range("I" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Offset(, 1)
.Formula = "=ReplaceChar(I17)"
.Value = .Value
Selection.NumberFormat = "0.00"
Cells.Value = Selection.Value * 2
End With
I'm starting a project where Excel will be used as the main UI for defining a table of data. I'm expecting to define a "template" - xlt i guess - that users can open and save as an xls, without over-writing the template. Users will populate the spreadsheet with a lot of help from user defined functions. I'm just getting started and would like to populate a particular cell with the current date, but only the first time the sheet is opened. I tried checking whether a cell was empty before assigning a value to it, of course this meant recursion!
Also: It might be nice to use the Today() function inside a UDF, but TODAY isn't a member of Application.WorksheetFunction - is there no way to reference TODAY() from within a UDF?
I have this loop, I get a range of specific cells and then I loop over this collection searching for a value, if this value exist I wanted to move one place to the right and then set a value on that cell, but for some reason when I put this offser(0,1) parameter, the loop became infinite, not sure why the code is doing this:
Code:
For Each c In Worksheets("Parameters").Range("A3:AR3").Cells
adress_start = ""
adress_letter = ""

I have made a pivot table which I use each month by just updating the source data, however I was trying to have a cell in another workbook say "=A31" but it keeps going "=getpivotdata(...specific name".
My usual practice was to copy the top ten rows of my pivot table into another file but I am trying to erase this step.
I am attempting to setup a spreadsheet that summarizes data from a set of other workbooks. The woorkbooks the data comes from is different for each year. However, I would like to have just one summary that can be changed based on the year entered.
In B1 the user enters the year. Say 2012
In the bulk of the spread sheet below the cells refrence
='C:...["&B1&" Pt. Visit Stats.xlsx]Summary'!$B$6
As I am sure many of you can guess I am getting a #REF! error. I just do not see why it shouldn't work.
I do not want to use the indirect function, because the refering workbooks would need to be open to draw data. I am guessing that I will probably need to research the Harland Grove Pull VBA work or more likely include a copy of Morfunc and then use the indirect function. But, I though I would ask here first just in case I am missing something relatively simple.
I want to place a thumbnail image inside a cell for each row of my spreadsheet and have those images STAY in that cell. Once I get the images in the cell, they float - if I sort the rows, the images get all mixed up.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a simple VBA function in Excel so that I can sort and calculate results based on various conditions. I can get everything to work except changing the color of the cell where the output is placed. Here is what I have so far:
Function nameOfMyFunction(arguments)

nameOfMyFunction = "No GRP"
ActiveCell.Font.Color = RGB(255,0,0)

I'm sure that its something simple, but I've spent long enough on my own trying to figure it out and nothing seems to work.
The following bit of code has worked for me but when it goes back for the next b it still finds the address as $j$13. This address does match the criteria I want but what I want the programme to do is move to the next address matching the criteria in the range...

Example 1:
I need to rearrange
"trace Silt, cm SAND, some- f Gravel" into
"cm SAND, some- f Gravel, trace Silt"
Example 2:
I need to rearrange
"some+ Silt, f SAND, trace- f Gravel" into
"f SAND, some+ Silt, trace- f Gravel"
There are many different cases for this problem. So if there is a way for the computer to recognize the Capitalized word and move it to the front and rest should be arange in order listed below.
Order
and+
and
and-
some+
some
some-
little+
little
little-
trace+
trace
trace-
each term is seprarated by commas.
For example
f SAND, some+ Silt, trace- f Gravel
each color represent one complete sentence. and the order for them should be capitalized funciton first, then the follow the order provided above.
How can I view hidden characters inside an excel cell. I have an excel file that I receive from our vendors. After verifying the data, I save the file as a tab delimited .txt format. When I open the .txt file I see some data with " " at both ends. i.e. "800 North Ave. Suite A". The thing is I don't see the " " in excel. This tells me that these are non-printing characters.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 4 cells with simple data in them. In another cell, I would like to make a phrase and include all the data from the 4 cells in that phrase.
Example:
="Jackpot: &G2 (&G1) / &G3 = &G4 each"
I already tried this:
="Jackpot: "&G2" ("&G1") / "&G3" = "&G4" each"
Am I missing something? I'm pretty sure this is doable, I just don't know what's missing.
How do I change a Positive number into a Negative number inside a cell formula?
I have a figure in Cell AE 101 which has the positive number 141
I have another cell W1 which has the positive number of 437
I want to create a formula in cell X1 that takes the number in cell AE 101 of 141 and convert the number inside the formula of 141 into a negative number of -141 and then subtracts that number from Cell W1 of 437 leaving an equation inside the formula to read. 437-141 = 296
Since the number in Cell W1 changes all the time and the number in AE101 Changes all the time the new formulated number in X1 will change all the time too as the cells get updated.
I want to know how to display part of a cells text value, inside another cell.

what its called when you have drop down menus that correspond with other drop down menus.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHere is what I'm trying to do:
I have 4 sheets:
1 called main
1 called states
1 called counties
1 called people
On "main" I have 1 drop down box and 1 cell:
the drop down lists the states from "states" sheet
the cell, which i would like to have as a drop down is supposed to be listing the counties in the state selected from the 1st drop down. right now it is setting the value to TRUE for testing purposes.
then when the county is selected, it will display the people in that county listed in "people". So far I can only get the 1st drop down to list the states. that's the easy part. i need to getting the counties to list in another drop down based on what state is selected.
Im a fairly basic VBA user who has just purchased the code for J-Walk's Enhanced Data Form.
On other threads in this forum I have noticed a lot of people asking how to make the contents of one drop-down box dependant on the selection in another. I am trying to do the same thing but with the criteria section of the EDF form.
Is this possible? What does give me hope is that a simple Autofilter - whilst not as aesthetically pleasing, does the job well.
Currently I have columns fixed or assigned to the names of insurance providers/companies.
In each column below the name of the Insurance Company, a combobox containing the plans that company offers. Choose a plan, and the rest of the column is filled in using vlookup.
Now to save space, IE opposed to having 13-15 columns one assigned to each Insurance Company/Provider. I am looking to have only 3-5 columns with a first initial combobox in which one chooses the Name of the Company/Provider, and in turn populate the original combobox and vlookup functionality I already have built in.
Here is an example of what I am working with.

I 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 RelatedI'd like to have a drop down box in a cell in excel - so you would click on the drop down arrow and choose a name from the drop down. This name would then be displayed in that cell. The idea being that you can only chose a name from the list, and type nothing else in there.

View 10 Replies View RelatedSay in A1 i have either Yes or No, in B1 i have a dropdown validation from a list if A1 is Yes and "n/a" if A1 is no.
I thought if i renamed my list validation to "Yes" and labelled "n/a" as "No", then using =INDIRECT(A1) as my list validation would do the trick.
