Dynamic Row & Column Highlights In A Data Table
Jan 15, 2014
I have a two way data table for which the two variables are changed frequently. In the data table, for ease of reference, i usually highlight the corresponding row and column of the two most current variables the intersection of which gives you the current output. But these highlights need to eb changed each time the variables are changed 9the table is copied onto another document for presentation hence the need to keep changing the highlights).
I was thinking of configuring the highlighting process to happen dynamically, i.e. the row and column highlights change dynamically when the variables are changed.

I'm using a table with dynamic data to populate a column/line chart.
The data is based on monthly targets achieved and forecasted. With each month, the information will update. The graph needs to have only the current month and future months to be displayed and I don't want to include the previous months information in the chart. The information in the chart automatically updates and loses the previous month's data. Unfortunately, the graph plots the blank data and has a blank entry on the graph. This means that the information I need starts in the middle of the chart and has a line that shoots up from 0 to the current month's value.
Is there any way that I can omit the month altogether?
The data source I am using is below:
MonthTarget for month* (examples)
October 100,123,669
November 125,154,586
December 150,185,503
January 175,216,420
February 200,247,337
March 225,278,254
April 250,309,171
May 275,340,089
June 300,371,006
As you can see, July August and September are not included. I want to be able to start the graph from October in the above example. In the following month, I want to use the same data but October Figures will not be required. How can I achieve this?

In this file Vehicle Fuel Tracking.xlsm I have a pivot table set up to filter my data. Next to the pivot table I have a column that Totals the Mileage based on the MAX and MIN of each group. I am looking for a dynamic formula to keep the totals alligned if data is added or deleted from the pivot table.
I would also be open to changing the data table to accomodate this request if needed.

I've got two pivot table reports working off one dataset.
I've named the range Recharge with the formula as below..
=OFFSET('Recharge'!$A$1,0,0,COUNTA('ABC Recharge'!$A:$A),16)
But this uses column A as the longest column... but sometimes it will be column I - how can the formula be adapted ? or can it be ? i've been looking at the Max function and trying to incorporate that but my limited brainpower has gone to mush.

How would I select a dynamic range in VBA without using name a range in Excel. I have searched for possible answers, however they use xldown, or xlup which works great for non-empty cells. My problem need to select the area where there are empty cells. Here is a snap shot of the data looks like:
Trade Date A B C D E
2008-Feb-11 450,432
2008-Feb-13
2008-Feb-15
The cell with number is where I got the formulas. Now i wish to fill that formula with the rest of the area. However, the problem is the number of rows and number of columns may change in the future. So I need to select those empty areas in a dynamic way.

I need to create a dynamic list from a table of data.
I have performance data for 110 different pumps. Data points are generated every hour, and the table is updated with new data periodically. I want to automate the population of a list of 6 different pumps, and specify the date range populated. To put it another way: I want to place data from Pumps 1 through 6 for all of November into Columns A through F. Then I want to clear that data, and show data for Pumps 105-110 for last week in those same Columns.
One of the main goals of doing this -- other than quickly narrowing a field of data -- is being able to quickly chart this data on a scatter plot with a custom format. The pumps are grouped together by region, and individual pumps have specific purposes. So I need to quickly generate graphs with a series' color scheme or formatting that is consistent and logical between different pumping regions.
I haven't been able to make pivot table work because of the graphing issue, and also because of the way it handles data points and presents data. I would like to make this work with excel functions and maybe some filtering, but I'm not opposed to figuring out a VB script if you think that's what I should use.

I have a spreadsheet with conditional formatting that highlights my data range in a row red when their is no data entered in cell (E2) with this formula =COUNTIF($E2,"")>0 Now my question is...How can I make the highlighting go away if I enter information into cell (C2)? I added another condtion that said =COUNTIF($C2,"")

am working on a spreadsheet that requires sorting a list of names and numbers. The numbers have a sum formula attached. I can set up the macro to sort the list fine by selecting the appropriate cells and creating the macro.
The code for this is below
Sub SurnameSort()
'
' SurnameSort Macro
' Sorts by mechanic surname
'
'
Range("A10:H13").Select
Selection.Sort Key1:=Range("B10"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:=xlGuess _
, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _
DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
End Sub
However, I want the macro to still be able to sort the data when I add new rows to the list later on. In other words, the code above in bold somehow needs to be modified so that "H13" extends as far down as needed.

I am using pivot tables/charts for drilldown reporting. After running a complex macro to consolidate multiple reports into one range, I need to generate pivot tables and charts.
These reports will change month to month in the number of entries they have (template will be identical), and therefore my data source range for the pivot table is bound to change. Therefore my question is, how to develop a macro that will dynamically change the source data range to the amount of rows?

I'm attempting to list my data... I have a dynamic table that has the following columns:
number of countries
country 1
country 2
country 3
1
Egypt
3
USA
Egypt
Scotland
2
Scotland
USA
As you may have guessed, I want trends on these countries. That would be easier to do if I had a single "Country" columns but I have to work that way.
I would have wanted to work with a pivottable (because they're so "user-friendly" (not always though^^)) but I didn't find a way to do it.
The reason why I want to work with a pivottable is to be able to link my countries results to the rest of the table.. If that's not possible, I'd still want to be able to reference them and say "USA, egypt and scotland pop up 2 times"
I found the following formula (in E2):
Code:
=INDEX(Table1[country 1]:Table1[country 3];MOD(ROWS(E$2:E2)-1;ROWS(Table1[country 1]:Table1[country 3]))+1;INT((ROWS(E$2:E2)-1)/ROWS(Table1[country 1]:Table1[country 3]]))+1)
Which works but I have to manually click-drag that cell down to complete my list. I'd rather have it grow automatically if I have to work that way.

I am interested in finding vba code that I can enter as an add-on for a weekly training report that I receive.
An example of the weekly report is attached. A Computer based training program populates the reporting tool with the date that the course was completed. Each week a report is generated as attached with the dates completed filled in the matrix.
The goal is to: Report the total percentage of training completed. I would like to be able to run a vba add-in that will determine what rows have entries. Perform a countA on the date fields. Sum the counta's and populate a cell with the % complete. In one simple touch of a button or keyboard function that can be ran each week without editing the code. These reports are filtered by department and the size of the matrix change all the time.
The hang up I am having is making the code dymanic enough to figure out what cells are filled and calculate and populate by that factor.

I have a vlookup function which takes the data from a table in a closed file. A folder where the file would be located will change based on the value in the cell reference.
I used below formula which works, but every time when i drag or try to edit and enter, the path of the file path brokes and i need to reselect the path where the file is located. Is there a way where i can stop this?
Code:
=VLOOKUP(A2,'C:&E1&[Myfile.xls]Sheet2'!$A:$B,2,0)

I have a dynamic table which is linked to a couple of charts. The table must remain dynamic.
I needed to add two new columns to the table, "Focus Area" and "Category". I need a drop down list in the "Category" column to be dependent on the item selected from a drop down menu in "Focus Area".
I can get the first row of the dynamic table to do this.... however; subsequent rows all lock the drop down list in the "Category" column to the same choices regardless of what is chosen in the "Focus Area" list.
Is there a way to make dynamic drop downs within a dynamic table?

I have a large table that I want to reconstruct. For simplicity sake, let's just says it's 3 rows (excluding headers) by 3 columns.
Item Description
1/1/2014
1/2/2014
1/3/2014
Cheese Burgers
2
3
4
Hot Dogs
5
12
6
Beverages
2
5
3
I want to reconstruct it so that the column headers become values in the table. The table headers are dates, in this case, if that gives clearer picture. So the new table would have 9 rows, (3 rows of data, excluding the header times four columns).
Item Description
Date
Quantity
Cheese Burgers
1/1/2014
2
Hot Dogs
1/1/2014
5
[Code] ....
The above example is sorted by date but I would be indifferent if it's sorted by the Item Description.
Is there an easy way to do this? Pivot possibly? Again, my data table is large: 36 rows x 181 columns. Using the copy/paste/transpose feature is pretty impractical.

I am a personal trainer/strength coach, and i use excel to write my workout programs.
To save time in writing programs i have made lists of all of my exercises in a separate workbook. I have them all linked via data validation in drop down lists to different templates for different populations ;weight loss, injury prevention, sports performance, ect. And it has been working great!
However here is my problem, I would like to be able to return an entire list of an exercise circuit with one drop down list and have it input all the exercises in cells below the drop down list.
So for example i have three columns on a separate sheet.
Column one
Circuit A
exercise 1
exercise 2
exercise 3
Column two
Circuit A
exercise 4
exercise 5
exercise 6
Column Three
Circuit A
exercise 7
exercise 8
exercise 9
In cell A1 i want a drop down list that that has circuit A, B, C,
using the drop down list if i pick circuit A it will return exercise 1, 2, 3 in the cells A2, A3, A4, receptively.

If I have a table as noted below with the following assumptions:
- this table will likely grow
- the 'Include' column data will change based on external criteria/formulas, so the 'Include' column will not be sorted.
- Macros aren't an option as this sheet needs to be macro free.
A
B
C
1
Item
Calories
Include
[Code]...
How do I build a formula that I can place in a data validation drop down to only include 'Item's that have Yes indicated in the 'Include' column?
I've been researching this and found answers if the 'Include' column was sorted via offset, but I haven't found any to sift through when unsorted. I feel like there is a simple answer to this that I am missing. Here is the sheet --> ExampleSheet.xlsx

I have a static table that contains a list of all posible components for a particular product that we sell. The sheet successfully calculates the qty. of each component required for a particular install.
What I would like to be able to do is to create a new list able from the static one that only shows the components that are needed i.e. those that don't have a zero qty count.
I have seen some examples that come close on YouTube but can't find anything that does exactly this.

I have this bit of code that highlights every other row. I would like to modify it so that it doesn't highlight the entire rows but instead stops at the column of whichever cell contains data.
For instance if I’m using a block of cells such as A1 to C5 it would highlight A2-B2-C2 & A4-B4-C4 only. Later on if I insert data in D3 it would now highlight A2-B2-C2-D2 & A4-B4-C4-D4. Anytime that data would be inserted into a new column all row highlight would now adapt to the new length of the table.
Here’s the
Sub ShadeEverySecondRow()
Dim lRow As Long
lRow = 0
Do
lRow = lRow + 2
If IsEmpty(Cells(lRow, 1)) Then Exit Do
Rows(lRow).Interior.ColorIndex = 15
Loop
End Sub

I have a question on the above but can't seem to find a solution. There are two ways that I can find for dealing with dynamic lists via data validation:-
1) Offset and match, cavet being the data must be sorted a-z
2) Have lists for each potential selection
Is there any way to get around 1 without having to do 2? E.g. Got two columns of data, unsorted, and a list from which the user can choose from. The user chooses from the list in first cell, in the second cell require the dynamic list to return all the values accordingly?

Just wondering if it is possible to put a check box with a macro say in cell C3 that when you tick the box it changes it to green as completed, but after a set time say 2 weeks the check box clears itself and changes the colour to red to highlight that its due again. Also when you tick the check box it inserts a date in another cell say D4 when it was ticked.
Reason for this is am trying to make a spread sheet with different products that require different testing frequency, some monthly some weekly and some fortnightly. At the moment we are just using a white board and staff just tick task completed problem is they need to check when last done especially when test required is of every 2 weeks and people forget.
If I make a spread sheet and it highlights the check box in red like I want to above at least it will give them a visual reminder that it is due.

I have a table (Sheet 1) with four columns data, A,B,C and D. There are about 60,000 entries in them. In Sheet 2, I wish to enter a value in A1 which will be from A OR C columns of Sheet1 and get its corresponding value from B or D (Sheet1) in B1 (Sheet2) with the help of a formula. i.e. IF(A1, Sheet1!A60000:C60000, then B1 = B or D of Sheet1).

For example:
COL A COL B
1 2
b 4
5 5
My current macro highlights all characters in this case b.
Is there a way to make it stop when it highlights b, and make it continue running when I want? I'm using a Form for this purpose.
