Will have a total calorie column (this will be a sum of several column containing individual foods)
On a separate worksheet (food sheet) will be a list of foods in one column and their calories (per serving) In the next column.
On the first sheet I want a drop down that lists all the foods on the "food sheet). selecting from this drop down will use a vlookup (or hlookup - depending) to arrive at a caloric value.
So here is (are) the problems. (and the solutions need to be NON-VBA)
1. How do I tie the drop down selection to a vlookup (macro maybe)
2. How do I use that one drop down to populate any cell on sheet one?
can this be done without coding?
This will be an exercise for an excel class to teach vlookups, linked sheets,
making a dropdown, using a macro, formulas, IF statements............
The class is probably not ready for VBA which is why this needs to be a non-coded solution.
I am open to other solutions (related topic) that can bring together all of the above learning concepts
I have a list of sites and depending which site I select from my drop down box I want to retrieve that data from my full data sheet. How can I go about doing this?
I have a LOG sheet where I am getting all my data from, and a TIME and DUTY sheet..
COL A Has Dates, a4 to a34, Limited to 31 lines for the dates and in col F I have # values, (1.2-2.2 etc). The formula I have in Col F is =SUMIF(LOG!$A:$A,#REF!,LOG!F:F)
but when i get to the end of the month, say for example the last 2 lines of the time and duty sheet, when a32 is 29/ Feb, the next row is blank and same with next row. (leap year).
How do I get the formula above to ONLY calculate when the cell in COL a on the same row, when there is a DATE value in COL a?
I am a teacher and I want a column to turn a particular colour if a pupil has met their target grade and another if they have not. Our grades work as letters A* being the best then descending as follows A, B, C, D, E, F, G, U.
I have a column with the pupil's target grade (one of the above letters) and another column with their current grade. How do I get excel to understand the ranking of the letters and format the current grade column according to whether they have met their target or not?
I am trying to put together an IF statement within excel which will give me certain output depending on the particular value within ONE cell.
For example:
If cell L5 has a value between 0 and 1.00 output value 0 If cell L5 has a value between 1.01 and 2.00 output value 20 If cell L5 has a value between 2.01 and 3.00 output value 40 If cell L5 has a value between 3.01 and 4.00 output value 60 If cell L5 has a value between 4.01 and 5.00 output value 80 If cell L5 has a value between 5.01 and 6.00 output value 100
when a cell in column "K" is clicked, an input box gives the user the choice of entering a number between 1 and 12. That value then inserts row(s) based on input value ..
I am trying to give a cell a unique ID based on the contents of 2 other cells.
Basically in cell A1 a value is entered between 1 and 13 and in cell A2 another value is entered between 1 and 4 to find the unique ID that matches these I need to look in DF4:FE4 to find the number that matches A1 ( there will be 4 matches) then look in thoses 4 matches in DF5:FE5 to find the match to A2 ( there will only be 1 match ) then return the id from the relvant cell in DF3:FE3.
I have a nested if statement that doesn't give a blank cell when it is evaluated. The cell is general formatted but results in a '0' in the cell instead of a completely blank cell.
If statement is: =IF('Sales info'!B16="",'Sales info'!B6,IF('Sales info'!B6="","",'Sales info'!B16))
Surely it's user error, but it honestly seems like Excel is not calculating 2 numbers correctly. At work, we have office 2010 where it is not calc'ing correctly; at home I have 2007 and it's fine, but anyway, here's my situation:
Cell A1: 0.003529 Cell B1: 0.48
If i put in Cell C1: "=B1/A1" i get a value of 136.000000 But that's not correct, it should be 136.01587... But if in Cell C1 i put "=0.48/.003529" then i get 136.01587...which is correct.
Why does using cell references in my formula give me the incorrect value?
I'm trying to make a simple chart with VBA based on a row with values that will color the offset cell interior red and also give it a value of 1. (look a the example sheet.)
In 1 cell i need a forumla to give me a starting number and take one away each time a code or codes are dislayed in a cell range. Something like this
A1 = 23 days or any number days i needed
Cell range B1:C52
every time a selected 1 or 2 letter code appears in the cell range i want A1 to subtract 1 day from the starting number, i would need it to subtract half a day if one code appears ie HD, the codes may be P, OT, HD
fill the column "Level 2 Area" based on the value selected from "Level 1 Area" which is coming from a drop down list. So the "Level 2 Area" will be a drop down list also based on the selected value from the drop down list from "Level 1 Area".
I need to match cells e3:h3 whenver the dates change in in cells c5:c9 and then put there result of cells b5:b9 into the corresponding cells of e5:h9.
Basically what I'm saying is that I want to keep a track of all previous pay amounts from each pay period. So when the next period changes the date it also copies the new pay amount to the corresponding date of the previous pay section.
Looking for a way to search an active cell (that has been found using macro) for numerical data and if there is some present paste this in a different location
If there is no numerical data in this this cell then paste a 0 in a different location
An example of the string contained in the cell
Product 7.5% wheat <- i would want 7.5 (or 7.5%) copied to a different cell or Product X <- i would want a 0 copied to the cell the 7.5 would be in from the above
I can find the cell to search in, i just do not know the correct way to extract the information I need.
My worksheet contains data with the reaction times on a psychological test. Each respondent in the test has 280 rows in my excel sheet.
The 'perfect' length of the row, is from A to M. When an error is made in the test, the length of the row will increase. So the error length can be A to AA.
For me it is important to analyse the error. So I would like to give a perfect row length, the value 1, and an error row length a value 2.
So, in conclusion:
If: Cell length = A1 - M1? --> Copy A1 B1 C1 (A B Cof that row) to Sheet3, and give D1 in sheet 3 the value 1
Cell length >= A1 - M1? --> Copy A1 B1 C1 (A B C of that row) to Sheet3, and give D1 in sheet 3 the value 2
I have a workbook with two sheets. The idea behind the workbook is an Interview Guide to be used just before an Interview. For now my problem is this.
Sheet 2 "Competencies" is just data. It stores competencies with their associated definitions and questions.
Sheet 1 "Control Page" is the sheet where the questions will eventually go. The user (Interviewer) will input data on the first two pages which will include name of candidate, date of interview etc. but they will also select 5 Competencies from the already existing drop down menus on page two. From there as the selections are made I wish for a code to copy the corresponding definition on sheet 'Competencies" to cells lower down in sheet "Control page".
I don't see a place to upload a file as I have a sample of the sheet ready to go.
I have a spreadsheet with numerical data in B1:B11 and textual data in C1:C11. The numerical data is a couple of digits, nothing big, and the textual data is always two letters, in this case AB, AC or AD. I have the options for AB, AC or AD for each of the cells in C1:C11 in a data validation drop down list. What I'm trying to do is make a VBA macro, of some sort, that acts upon when, AB for instance, is changed to AC, and then multiply the adjacent numerical value in the B column by a conversion value:
AB -> AC = 3 AC -> AD = 7 AD -> AB = 4
So for example, if I had cell B2 as 10 and C2 as AB, then changed AB to AC using the drop down menu, the macro would recognise the change, select the adjacent cell, B2, and multiply it by 3 to get 30, and put 30 in B2.
This is what I've got so far, and I'm no VBA expert, so I've probably made mistakes in multiple places. At the moment, the code below is getting stuck on active.celloffset - and I'm really not sure why. I did manage to get it working with specific cells rather than a range, but that only ever worked once and I had to close and re-open excel to get it to work again. Is my code any good, or am I coming at this from the wrong direction?
Code: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Code: Static ov As Variant For Each Cell In Range("B1:B10")
I have a drop down box with the 10 different shifts we run here at my work. Ie - Daytime (0700-1500), Nightime (1500-2300) etc. I have these on a drop box as stated earlier (Cell 6) - and want to code a selection from within the box, to effect Cell 7 with the approriate hours worked depending on what I selected in Cell 6.
I made an analysis table that shows a list of prices on a certain company. I have a table on one worksheet and I made a chart (from that table) on another worksheet. I'm using an in-cell drop down list on the table worksheet to change to different companies. Is there a way that I can put the same drop down list on the chart worksheet? Essentially, I want to be able to switch the company on either worksheet and have it change on both worksheets. I'd like to keep the chart and table uniform and running together.
I have a a sheet with a drop down, if the selection of Critical in the drop down (A57) is selected, i need E57 to have a message saying we need to elaborate on the explanation or when critical is selected a popup with NEED TO ELABORATE in the description comes up.
Im trying to create a spreadsheet which has a drop down list in a cell, then when a selection is made a predetermined dollar figure will be entered in the cell next to it.
For Example:
Cell A1 Drop down list I have 20 cities listed, If I select St. Louis, I want the cell next to it to populate with $250.
Every city has a different dollar amount tied to it. So any time I select a city I want the specified dollar amount to populate the cell next to it.
I inherited the attached spreadsheet and cannot figure out how to change the dropdown control and the tool tips? If you click in either of the top two yellow cells a form control dropdown appears...I can't seem to get to the properties of the dropdown? Also, when clicking in each yellow cell...a tool tip like pop-up appears. Those I cannot find a way to edit either? I can't find any code for any of this...and they all act the same when I disable macros?
I'm using the following code to get the linked cell and return the value to a range. Is there anyway I can achieve this WITHOUT selecting the shape to get the linkedcell. I find using 'select' is cause me formatting problems.
VB:
Sub finalizeclrx() Dim s As Shape, finRNG As Range, pk1 As String, SphFill As Long SphFill = Worksheets("input").Range("K65536").End(xlUp).Row Set finRNG = ActiveSheet.Buttons(Application.Caller).TopLeftCell For Each s In ActiveSheet.Shapes If Not Intersect(finRNG.Offset(-5, -11).Range("A1:A1"), s.TopLeftCell) Is Nothing Then
if you can copy the result of a drop down box to another cell in another tab. Want to use front tab as master sheet and drop selected info down to other tabs .I used Form Controls to create drop down box -
What is the formula in excel where the cell in reference return a value from a drop down list?
For example: I have a drop down list of HomeLoan Programs with rates from 3 different channels. If I choose a 30yr FNMA with rates 3.875 = 100.125 ; 4.00 101.250; 4.125 = 102.00
If I choose 20yr FNMA it will return the pricing to the cell next to the program.
I provide a spreadsheet.
30yr FNMA works from the drop down but all other programs does not work. I am not sure if I have to reference and index or match.
