I have a drop down menu using data validation and the values are B,C,D
I want to keep the letter in a cell, but make each one become number, so B=5, C=10, D=20
I have another dropo down menu that contains 6,10,16
What I require is that once the 2 drop down menus have 'values selected' I need to multiply the 2 cells together
so for example
If B and 6 was selected, I require the 3rd cell to be 5*6 so what is the formula?
Is there simple function that anyone knows of (or has written) that will convert a letter to its alpha-numeric equivalent?
For instance, A = 1, B = 2, AA = 27, etc (a = 1, b = 2, aa = 27)
I need to convert a column letter to a column number for the following line of code in my VBA application:
VB:
strAverageBaseFormula = "=AVERAGE(D" & Trim(Str(lngFirstRowOfIncrement + 1)) & ":K" & Trim(Str(lngFirstRowOfIncrement + 1)) & ")"
I am inserting a formula into a cell using VBA, but the problem is that I don't know the letter value of column "K" (used in the middle of the line); instead, I know it as column number 11. Is there a simple way to convert the column number 11 to the column letter "K"?
Some bits of code I have learned use column numbers and some bits use column letters.
Can someone share a line or two that I could add to my macro that will convert the F representing column F into a 6, and vice versa, so that I can continue using my pre-existing bits?
I can obtain the columns numbers but I cannot get the letters. Is there anyway to convert from a number to a letter?
eg. somefunction(1) gives me column(A) as an answer?
I wanted to know if there was a way to either make a variable hold a column letter or else automatically convert a column number to a letter. This would be for use in the Range property.
All I could find is some complicated technique requiring division by 26 that I will never remember let alone code quickly.
Or if you have a variable holding a column number, is the only way to use it with Cells?
Is there an easy way (without writing my own conversion function) to get the column letter from a range object, as opposed to the column number?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a workbook with multiple worksheets related to several subsidiary companies for each state & territory, resulting in 450+ worksheets in the workbook. I created a summary sheet with a dropdown menu for each state/territory that pulls in the relevant data using "=indirect". For example, selecting CA from the dropdown menu populates the combined revenue, expenses, etc., for all subsidiaries in CA. However, I've got 50 states plus some territories. I'd like the revenue, expenses, etc. for every dropdown option. Ideally, a separate sheet (or whatever) that lists all 50 states and the revenue, expenses, etc., for each one below (or across).
Is there any way to do this automatically so I don't have to select every single option and copy and paste the numbers into a different worksheet?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been working on a Software Audit list that has been created by someone else. He has created an Application Colum and under that is a drop down box. I want to be able to search by typing in the first letter, i.e. 'S' but currently I just have to scroll down.
Do I need to create and Active X Combo Box to do this or is there another way? Also, is it possible to search on the first two letters, i.e. 'se'?
Is it possible to search my Worksheets("Register").Shapes("Drop Down 1") by selecting it and type in a letter? Similar to a combobox "0 - fmMatchEntryFistLetter"

Need to create a drop down menu for a cell that allows selection of 1 of the 5 to 10 alternatives by clicking on an item in the drop down. Have seen this done by attaching a down arrow button to the cell.
What is this feature called, and how do I go about setting this up?
In Column A I have product names. Each product name in column A is followed by several rows of data related to that product directly below it. The number of rows following any given product varies and is also dynamic as rows of data are added to other products above it.
I want a simple downdown menu in A1 that is populated with every product listed in Column A. When a product is selected, that area of the worksheet showing that product is shown.
I am building a workbook which will be used to quote cleaning jobs and i want to add a drop down selection menu with hidden values which will calculate timings for jobs - for example
if you select DOOR WITH VISION PANEL i want that to have a hidden value that is the time it takes to clean e.g. 1 minute the auditor then enters the number of doors lets say 3 and the spreadsheet can then calcutale that 3 doors with vision panels will take 3 minutes to clean
I have a successful dropdown menu that removes items that have already been selected through the dropdown list, however, I need it to be able to handle IDENTICAL items. At the moment, it can only handle unique items.
I'm trying to create a Rota Planner. I have a selection of shifts that need to be selected for each day. Some shifts are repeated (meaning that there may be 4 members of staff on the same shift). As ONE of each of the 4 shifts are selected, I then want only 3 to be displayed in the dropdown menu to be selected, until all of them have been selected.
I've tried to break apart the code that provides dynamic dropdown list for UNIQUE values but I'm tearing my hair out and getting nowhere.

I created a Validation list from 2 to 20. I want to have it (the list) add a row every time you select the proper data.
Example: If I want to add 2 row I would select the 2 in the drop down menu. If I need 5 rows I need to select 5 from the drop down menu.
Is this a VBA code? Or can I use a formula?
I am trying to create a drop down menu in Excel to display certain values but it's not working. I want to input certain data in the cells. eg, 019, Quebec, Agent, Direct etc. I want to create a drop down list where if 019 is selected, all 019 entries would show up hiding all others. When nothing is selected all values would show up. I created a list but if I have 10 "Agent" entries in the cells, the drop down list also shows 10 "Agent entries rather than letting me select "Agent" and then displaying all agent entries below. I don't know if it makes sense but I basically want to make it easier for people to look for certain entries that they need rather than going through the entire spreadsheet to find all 019's.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to create a drop-down menu to choose dates and if I choose certain date the data of numbers (23 sets of number (4 digits)) will comes out in the next column beside the drop down menu of dates, then if the 23 numbers already comes out it will highlight how many numbers are the same in the previous date to the current date. So, each time I choose different date the data for that specific date (23 numbers) will comes out.. I try to do it but I get error when I change to different date the data for that specific date doesn't comes out.
View 3 Replies View RelatedMost of the information I need I am getting using standard web queries. But pulling data directly from drop down menus seems beyond the capabilities of a regular web query.
I only need the information that shows as the menu options. I don't need any information from the pages at those links. Nor do I need the links.
Actually all I really need is the option value information, and the date. So for the first item, I would be looking for, 7|2014|u 06/18/2014
I have a spreadsheet which is made up of 4 worksheets. I have a drop down menu on the front page (created with data validation). I want to be able to choose one of the 7 geographical areas from the drop down menu, then have a formula search through the other worksheets for rows of data with this geographical area in it. Any ideas on how to do this, I have tried with VLOOKUP but cannot get the formula to refer to the drop down menu for the first input, i.e. the geographical area that it should be looking to match.
View 5 Replies View Related I am developing a spreadsheet at work that is very similar to one that I made at a previous job. I am using the same formula in each spread sheet, but the one I am developing now does not work, where the previous one works perfectly.
I have a drop down menu created with data validation. Each possible selection is one or two letters of text, or the selection can be left blank. The drop down is cell A12, and an example of the if function that is used many times in this spreadsheet is as follows:
=IF($A$12="L",1,0)
In the previous spreadsheet, the function returns true only when the appropriate selection is made. In the latest version, it will return true if the appropriate selection is made, or if drop down selection is blank. I have been able to work around this with the following:
=IF($A$12="",0,IF($A$12="L",1,0))
