I have a spreadsheet with data in all different rows.
I'm trying to delete all the blank cells in between.
I tried go to special, blank, and delete cells,
but for some reason, the excel doesn't select all the blank cells.
It only selects a few blank cells, which is really strange.
My requirement is to remove the spaces in the text in each cell in a worksheet. i have used TRIM function for this. Sheet1 will have the imported data and sheet 2 has the formula to TRIM. i have an issue when using TRIM on date format. I have used formula TRIM(sheet1!Ax) for columns 1,2 and 3 and TRIM(TEXT(pcload!D1,"mm/dd/yyyy")) for column 4. But the blanks cells in sheet 1 have a value of 01/00/1900 in sheet2. I need the blank cells to be displayed as blank in sheet2.
I have a pivot table that compares year-on-year sales data for accounts. If an account didn't have sales for the earlier year, the custom calculation errors #DIV/0! which I can show as at the account level. Problem is at the subtotal levels, I also get the error when I should be getting a value for the group. The error for the one account is affecting my subtotal.
Is there a way I can Show Empty Cells as a VALUE instead of TEXT of say... 0.001 so I can eliminate the error messages?
I am trying to use the ARRAY.JOIN function as recommended by Domenic in previous posts. I need to output a single column of values from a 10 x 10 grid that does not have values in every cell.
(I would also like to eliminate any blank cells from the final column.)
I can only get ARRAY.JOIN to output the first value of whatever range I select, not a column of values.

how to properly execute that function. One earlier comment was that I was not specifying criteria. I'm not sure from the description and help section of "morefunc" as to what those criteria specs are, other than specifying the whole array. I am attaching a test file with the 10x10 grid & some missing values in A1:J10. Cell L1 has the ARRAY.JOIN function with the entire grid specified, but the output is only the first cell of the grid.
I have a pivot table with 3 levels of titles in the Row Labels - Grouping, SubGrouping and Name. In many cases there is a Grouping but no SubGrouping and always there is data in the "Name" category. I am trying to eliminate the Subtotal for the blank SubGroupings but when I try to filter out the blanks it no longer shows me any Groupings where a SubGrouping doesn't exist.
I have data on 400 rows. Each row has a maximum of 10 cells with data, but many have empty cells with no data. I would like to sort each row to show values of cells in sequence and eliminate empty cells. I can use the sort row function but its a long process for 400 individual rows. Is there an easier way?
I am using Arrays throughout a large report and each time I move around in the report or simply open the report I have to wait 5 to 10 seconds to wait for the cells to calculate. Is there a way to prevent this from happening other than changing the calculation option to manual.
Is this and array problem? I don't get this when I use multiple vlookups and choose formulas? Any ideas to speed up or prevent all together?
I have the code below that clears colums B-J and L-N in whatever row you activate a cell in. When a row gets cleared, how do I shift all the other rows up to eliminate blank rows in between the data real-time? I've deactivated the cut function already since this messes up references in the worksheet, so it would have to only use copy, paste, and clearcontents functions. Also, I don't want to DELETE any rows, just essentially shift the blank rows to the bottom. So when a row is cleared, all others shift up and the blank one goes to the end of the data that is available for data entry, so rows 17 to 116 are always available. But it must check to make sure that B-J and L-N are ALL blank, otherwise some wanted rows with one piece of information might get cleared. So at any given time, my range will always go from row 17 to 116. This is Excel 2007. Here is the code I have to clear rows that can be built upon.
However, I want to ignore the "" cells and the truly blank cells... However, I think all of them will have "" since I have this formula in all of the ones I'm putting in the range:
[Code]....
How do I go about getting these results into a named range so I can use it on validation since validation only seems to ignore truly blank cells and not the "" ones.
I'm using a VLOOKUP function to return data from a database query on another page. If the data it is looking for is not available, it displays "#N/A". As data will not always be available, this is an intentional use of the function.
I was just wondering if there is a way to return just a blank cell insted of "#N/A" (Like turning the error message for a broken function off). It just looks like a mess with all of the NAs.
I can't modify my formula to leave blank cells blank when dragging it down, Also, I've got two formulas that i need to combine. Please view the comments I've put in cells E4, F2,F3,H2 and I2 to understand clearly what am seeking. See the attached worksheet.
I have sporadic cell values in a column. I will be describing the lamen logic I use to fill in these blanks manually. Find the first nonblank cell in the column, then look for the next nonblank cell in the column. I count the number of blank cells in between. If even # of blank cells, then I give the first half of the blanks the value of the first nonblank cell and the second half of the blank cells the value of the next nonblanck. If odd # of blank cells, then I do the same with the exception that the odd cell that falls in the middle will be randomly designated the value of the either first or second nonblank cell.
But I dont want it to count the cells if the entire row, within that cell, i.e. C6:AD6, is blank.
It should only count the blank cells within a row if there has been some data entered on that row..provided it has been entered within the specified range.
I am looking for an IF statement that would leave a balance cell blank if both the revenue and expense cells are blank, otherwise a formula would be calculated.
I presume this is fairly simple to do, since it's certainly easy enough to do manually by filling in a couple of rows and dragging them down, but I need it to be performed in a macro that I can run before other macros run.
What I need specifically is for the macro to go to G1 and insert the number .01... Then go to G2 and insert .02... Then G3 and insert .03... And repeat this until it finds the first non-blank cell ( row number this occurs at varies), at which point it ends and does nothing to that populated cell or any other cell in the column thereafter (including other blanks farther down).
Here's what I'm attempting to do: For each column, X,Y, Z, I am attempting to count nonblanks. However, the data was imported from Access and Oracle, and Excel treats what appear to be blank cells as nonblanks. I've tested this theory by highlighting a couple of "blank" cells and deleting them, and my count changes. So, can I get Excel to put a value into my "blank" cells, so then I could filter it out, or create a formula that would only count dates in my columns (which is what I'm after).
This is what I'm looking at:
A B C 1 2/4/2006 2/6/2006 ("blank") 2 ("blank") 12/13/2005 1/7/2006 3 2/20/2006 1/15/2006 ("blank")
In each column if I use a COUNTA I'll get a total of 3, instead of 2 for A, 3 for B and 1 for C.
The range of cells in column B containing the items has a name "ColStreams"
I need to go through the list, filling in each blank cells with the value contained in the first non-blank cell above it - so, in this case, rows 6 and 7 would contain "Item 2", row 9 would contain "Item 3", rows 11-13 would contain "Item 4" and so on.
The formula below calculates appropriately, however, if any of the cells (E12,E14, E21, E22, E28, E29) are blank, it returns a #VALUE! error. I would like the cell to remain blank. How can I do this? The formula is listed below.
the situation is i have a sheet, contains like 500 cells, from A1, to T500, some of the cells are blank, then i figure that from cell A1 to E500 not all the words in capital, so i make it with upper on the2nd sheet, then, i copy + paste value back to the first sheet (A1 to E500)
i get wht i want, but why it's like there's no blank cells anymore on my worksheet.
like you know, if u want to jump from a filled cell to the blank cell, you would hit Ctrl + Down, it jump to the very end of the datas that i paste value before.
so when i hit Ctrl + Down from A1, it jumps to A500, meanwhile the filled cells only 10 cells.
I was curious if it is possible to give a single cell multiple number formats based on what the number is in the cell. So for example if my number is bigger than 1000, I would like to use comas so that it looks like this 1,000. However, if it is less than 1000 I would like it to look more like this 999.00.
I'm am trying to combine columns B and C in such a way that the result will appear as B: C when C is populated and B alone when C is not populated. I've tried a variety of functions, and I'm unable to get the result I want. This is my most recent attempt:
Hello, I am trying to update a person's finances for this past year. She sent me a workbook that has two sheets with macros. The first sheet is linked to the 2nd. When a name and number is typed into the first sheet it automatically shows up on the 2nd.
My problem is, no matter what number I change on the first sheet under amount, the Total cell on the 2nd sheet gives me the #Value error. I have not changed anything, have not deleted any formulas but no matter what I do, that value error always shows up. I know very little about excel but I thought I knew enough to be able to update this book for her. Is there a special way I should be inputting the numbers on the first sheet so that the value error will show the running total instead of an error?
One of the multitude of areas where I still need drastic improvement is with efficiency. Specifically, avoiding loops.
Are any of you aware of any good, basic level sites, blogs, posts, etc., about better methods or processes? I'm not particularly experienced with programming (I've been a software TESTER for 13 years and just started some programming in recent months), so the more basic the better.
Is it possible to eliminate gridlines from only certain rows, columns and or cells? Specifically, I would like to eliminate the gridlines from the frozen columns and rows.
