Converting Feet/inches To Decimal Equivalent

Feb 18, 2006

I am new to Excel but not programming and I am looking for a recommendation for the following. I have a spreadsheet that simply takes the length and width of an area and computes the square feet and yardage and other sundry items. I am entering the feet/inches as follows:

Example: 11.3 (equals 11/ft 3/inches)

The correct decimal conversion should be 11.25 but, obviously, it does not know that the number to the right of the decimal point is an indicator of inches. (ex.: .5=.42, .7=.58, .9=.75, .11=.92)

I have approached this from the stand point of an IF condition, finding the position of the "." and grabbing everything to the right (+1) but I understand that the limitation is 7 nested IFs.

Can someone get me kick-started on what the best approach would be to get my entry to convert to the true decimal equivalent? Currently, I am simply doing the conversion from memory but I would rather automate this sometimes errant approach.

Converting Decimal To Feet - Inches (fractional)?

Mar 24, 2009

This is a continuance of the Q and A below. Except the answer below converted a decimal like 1.44 to and answer like 1' 5.28".
except the final format I am after requires the 5.28" to be fractional such as:
1' - 5 1/4"

Is there a formula for this format?

Excel 2007 :: Changing Number To Add Decimal Places

Jan 30, 2013

I am using Excel 2007 and importing a list of coordinates. The coordinates are in a text file and separated by commas, so I'm opening the file as a delimitted file. All of the coordinates import correctly except one. The value is supposed to 52530.6372, but Excel is automatically changing it to 52530.6371999999

If I manually type a "2" to replace the "1999999", it changes it back. If I type "3" it stays as a 3.

I added a round function to force it to round to 4 decimal places and that seemed to work until I then tried using the number with text commands. When I used an ampersand to insert the number into a text string, the additional decimal places are back, even with a round function!

Excel 2007 :: Limit To 2 Decimal Places Precision

Oct 14, 2013

Is there a way I can get excel (2007) to limit itself to 2 decimal places for all numbers entered? So effectively I don't want use the formulas TRUNC or ROUND (or any other formula) but I would like rather excel to behave like my calculator where I can limit the decimals to 2 no matter how many I input.

In other words, every time a input a number, excel will round it up automatically to 2 decimal places and the number available will have 2 decimals only. Is there any option hidden somewhere in the Excel options that I couldn't find?

Feet In Decimal Form To Feet / Inches?

Dec 26, 2013

I need a formula to convert:

3.759 to 3' 9"
3.974 to 4'
4.005 to 4'

I have this currently:

=INT(D9)&"' "&ROUND(TEXT((D9-INT(D9))*12,"#"),0)&CHAR(34)

However, 3.974 returns 3' 12" and 4.005 returns a #VALUE error. I'm picky about the spaces. I'd like it formatted as I have it now.

Convert Decimal Feet To Feet And Inches

May 18, 2011

I am currently working on cut sheets for my current project. I need to take my decimal feet (ie 1.55) and display them as feet and inches (1' 6 5/8") not (1' 6 3/5")

I have a formula which is this

=INT(F17)&"' "&TEXT(12*(F17-INT(F17)),"# #/#")&CHAR(34),

It works but the problem is the fractional inches 6 3/5" i need them to display in 1/8 1/4 1/2 when applicable. Is there something i could add to this formula to make my inches read like a measuring tape (1' 6 5/8") 1/8 1/4 1/2??? I attached the spreedsheet for review.

Paste Two Decimal Number In Excel Without Extra Decimal Places Appearing

Aug 13, 2009

I have a vba macro that takes data from one workbook and pastes it into another workbook. In doing this I have declared a few variables of type single (I only need two decimal precision). However, when I copy the values from the cells on the source workbook and paste them into the target workbook, the numbers end up having 12 decimal places. Ultimately, this extra precision causes my totals to be off by .01 or more after a while. I have tried rounding the number as I pull it off the source workbook into the variable, but that didn't matter. How do I solve this problem? Code for pulling data from source workbook:...

Feet & Inches Formula

Jun 21, 2007

I am making an excel spreadsheet that auto fills in a lot of items for a construction company. One of the most important ones is the Roof Pitch.

1/12 pitch is 1 inch rise every 12 inches.
2/12 pitch is 2 inch rise every 12 inches.

I would like it to auto calculate this and add it to the over all height of the building.

Example:

A house is 20 feet wide with a 2/12 pitch.
Since the Ridge is in the center we divide the Width in half.

So a 2/12 pitch over a span of 10 feet is 20 inches

Excel 2010 :: Combobox Column Widths Forces Points Instead Of Inches?

Jul 8, 2014

How the heck to work with comboboxes and listboxes.

In entering column widths, I want to do inches. I understand inches. I don't understand points.

The instructions say that it will take whatever is in the User Control Panel: Regional: Number settings. I checked. It is US system. Not points.

MSO 2010. Can I change it to inches or do I need to get used to points?

Excel 2007 :: Why Does Formula Not Autofill To Next Row

Jul 3, 2009

I have an xls with over 500 rows of data, every day I have to update the contents of some of the cells, Cell A contains the date and is auto filled already to the end of 2009, Cell B shows me the number of days since I began the sheet and is also auto filled already to the end of 2009, Cell C & Cell D I have to manually enter data

Cell E contains this formula =D527-D526

Cell F =C527/B526

Cell G = =IF(C527=0,0,C527-C526)

Cell H resorts to manual entry.

My question is "why do these columns with formulas, (E,F & G) not automatically carry the formula to the next row?" I'm sure that they once did. Is it a setting that I can't find?

This is excel 2007.

Excel 2007 :: Won't Copy Formula

Apr 5, 2012

I have made no changes to Excel 2007, but suddenly when I attempt to copy a formula (e4=c4+d4) to a new cell, the result in the new cell is the value from the copied cell (and not a relative copy of the formula). I have checked the Calculation Options and it is set to Automatic. This is an existing spreadsheet that I have used for years. I also tried to copy a formula in a newly created spreadsheet and get the same result.

Excel 2007 :: VBA Formula To Replace Vlookup?

Oct 4, 2013

I have two worksheets, contractor & list. Assume that Column (A) on the "contractor" worksheet is a named range from Column (A) on the "list" worksheet. On the "contractor" worksheet I would like to put in the contractors name, and auto populate the pay value in column (B). I have been using a Vlookup formula, but need to automate this process a bit more.

"Contractor" worksheet - Two columns: (A) I will input the contractors name from a dropdown list based on name range from my "list" worksheet. (B) is where I would like to populate the pay base on column (B) in my "list" worksheet.

Contractor (A)
Pay (B)

Excel 2007 :: Formula To Add Figures Together When Doing VLookup

Dec 9, 2013

I am using Excel 2007, I have a customer sheet and a sales sheet in the same work book. My customer sheet lists all customers with a single entry only each with a unique customer code. My Sales sheet lists at an item level but does include the customer code so if my customer has purchased more than one item the customer code can be repeated on the Sales sheet on multiple rows.

When I do a vlookup to display the amount each customer has spent on the customer sheet, only the very first sales figure is displayed, if further down the sales sheet the same customer has made another purchase I want this figure to be added to the first figure and all I want to see on my customer sheet is the final total figure.

The vlookup formula I am currently using is:
=VLOOKUP(G2,Sales!$A$2:$B$1785,2,FALSE),

I'm thinking maybe a Vlookup will not do what I require, maybe I need a different formula/function?

I am working on a sheet that will copy a specified number of sheets, rename them, set a cell within the equal to a cell from another sheet and (the problem) set cells on my input sheet equal to cells in the newly copied and renamed sheets.

I want the cells in sheet "Data Input" to look something like "='newsheet'E26"

I can make it return the actual number in the cell and return the formula in the cell, but not make the cell in "Data Input" reference the cell in the new book.

Here is what I have:

Dim i As Integer
Dim wks As Worksheet

Excel 2007 :: Nested Formula Limitations

I'm trying to do a nested formula to automatically assign a region number based on what the County is. We have 88 counties we deal with, split into 7 regions. What is the best way to go about setting up a formula to do this, so I don't have to do it manually? I believe the last time I tried doing something like this, I received an error saying that Excel didn't support a formula as big as what I was writing.

Excel 2007 :: Change Text Color Within Formula?

In Excel 2007 I know that if you have a cell containing text that you can change the color of parts of that text like This is the text in my cell and this is red text

But I have a cell with a formula that adds text to the end based on a conditional. I can't see any way to change the text color in this situation. I basically want this formula:

=D_Notes & TEXT(CHAR(10),) & IF(Terms = "Budgetary Estimate Only", "Quote is budgetary only and is subject to change pending final design.","")
