Basically, I have a table of data in Excel 2010, akin to the demonstration below (just much, much, MUCH bigger).
Category
Genre
Title
Author
Year
[Code]....
I have lots of DVDs and decided to catalogue them using Excel 2010. I made use of 3 Sheets. In Sheet 3 there are 2 lists: Category (PG, M18, General, Adult) and Language (English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish). Sheet 2 contains the data under the following headings: Title, Category, Language, Genre. I used Sheet 1 to create a drop down list for selecting a Title and then the information of the title are displayed, that is, its category, language and genre (I used vlookup). This is working fine.
Then I created another drop down list for Category. I want to be able to select a category, such as M18, and then a list of titles that fall under this category will be displayed. However, when I tried using vlookup with index, I failed to get the display of titles.
I am having a problem formatting a chart in Excel 2010. My chart has multi-level category axis labels, and I would like to have a vertical grid line separating each major group of categories. In Excel 2003, I could right-click on one of the gridlines and then specify the spacing I wanted between gridlines. In Excel 2010, as soon as I indicate that I want multi-level category axis labels, I get a vertical gridline between each category and I am unable to alter the spacing. If I deselect the multi-level axis label option, I can adjust the spacing between the vertical gridlines, but the axis multi-level label functionality is lost. Is there a way to fix this problem without having to resort to using the drawing tools or text boxes to achieve the desired results.

I am wanting this work book to do is have a table of categories update automatically when a category is selected in the "category column". The 3rd cell to the left of the category column "Gross column" is where the data is which needs to be sent to the corresponding category in the table and utomatically update. I have attached a sample workbook.

With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields("Category Id")
.PivotItems("ARMS/AMMO/EXPLOSIVES").Visible = False
.PivotItems("COMPUTER").Visible = False
.PivotItems("COUNTERFEIT GOODS").Visible = False
.PivotItems("DRUGS").Visible = False
.PivotItems("GENERAL MDS/OTHER").Visible = False
.PivotItems("PROHIBITED ITEMS").Visible = False

In the instance for today, the field "Drugs" is not in my main data. So I get an error box and it stops because the category is not there. How can I get this to continue if one of the fields is not found?
I am using a pivot table to summarise information with a list of tonnes and sources from civic amenity sites. All was fine until I got to this month to do monthly reports. The pivot table appears to be treating what appears to be exactly the same categories of "CIVIC" and "TRANSFER" differently. By this I mean that although the values in the column appears to be "CIVIC" or "TRANSFER", some get treated differently in the pivot table making it pretty useless. I have made sure that all spellings of the words are the same. there are no spaces before or after the word e.g " CIVIC" but to no avail!

Trying to create a Calculated Column in a table to put Expense in 1 of 4 categories
I came up with =CALCULATE(sum([TotalExpense]),FILTER(factExpense,factExpense[ExpnseType]="Sundries"))
But that is returning total instead of a total for each record What did I miss?
This works for the first Calculated column: =CALCULATE(sum([TotalExpense]),FILTER(dimExpense,dimExpense[Type]="Sundries"))
But as soon as I copy the formula to the next column and update the type to "Wines_Spirits" I get
A circular dependency was detected

I am using Excel 2011 for Mac.
I am creating a workbook with multiple worksheets, one overview sheet and then one sheet for each month of the year.
In the monthly sheets I have a Category column for which I have created a drop-down menu of expense categories. Then I have an Expense Amount column where I enter the amount spent.
The Category column will not necessarily remain sorted by category because I will be entering the expenses as they come up throughout the month so the categories will be all mixed up, unless I manually sort them.
What I want to do is somehow automatically calculate a running subtotal by Category (that will update with each new entry) and simultaneously automatically transfer the running subtotal for each Category to a specific cell on the overview sheet.
I attached a print srceen of the excel worksheet.
In E5 i want it to show the count of records that belong to group 1 (C5) with category 1 value="1"
In F5 i want it to show the count of records that belong to group 1 (C5) with category 2 value="2"

I've put together code to construct a chart
It all works fine but I've noticed an odd quirk which I can't explain nor can I seem to fix. Here's the (reduced) code :
Code:
Dim appExcel As Object ' Excel Application
Dim chtPareto As Object ' Chart
Set appExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
Set chtPareto = appExcel.Charts.Add
With chtPareto
' Primary category axis
[code]....
The category (x) axis title should be horizontal, whereas the value (y) axis title should be rotated. Stepping through the code, when I .SetElement for the category axis title, it appears horizontal as planned. However, as soon as I .SetElement for the rotated value axis title, the category axis title also rotates.
I need a sum of top 5 numbers category wise. I have attached a sheet in which I would be requiring Sum of Top 5 for the month of May. I have shaded cell where i would be requiring a formula...
Also I may want to include other category as well.. For e.g. sum of top 5 for the year 2011 as well... I have tried every thing i could from Sumif to sumproduct to Large...
The title isn't very good I know; I don't know the right terminology to explain the problem properly, but i'll give it a go: In column A I have a list of names, all of them appear multiple times. In column B there is a corresponding percentage. I would like to create a formula that takes the average of all the percentages that have the same corresponding name, or 'category'. I don't want to just go through and do it manually since there are roughly 32,000 different values.
I did have one idea; in column C I pasted in a list of all the possible names in column A and then in column D I used countif to find out how many times each name recurred. If both columns A and C are in alphabetical order, I thought I could use the normal average function, by doing, for example AVERAGE(B1:BD1), but this didn't work. Is there some special way in which you can use a cell name (i.e. D1) instead of a number in a cell range? I tried brackets, speech marks etc. but nothing worked. I have searched around a bit on this forum to see if my question had already been answered, and did some extensive googling, but I couldn't find a solution.
I have 4 columns:
id (A), number (B), category (C) and month (D)
I think this could be done using VBA or formula's,
I understand how to SUM up based on criteria, but I
haven't a clue where to start to see if something was
present/ not present in the previous month and category and vice versa
If I decide a month to look at in E1, say February.. then i need
to calculate 4 things:
1) was an id in February and not in January (for this category) if so then sum up (B) per category (C) for February
2) was an id in January and not in February (for this category) if so then sum up (B) per category (C) for January
3)was an id in February and not in January (not in any cateogry in jan) if so then sum up (B) per category (C) for February
4)was an id in January and not in February (not in any category in feb) if so then sum up (B) per category (C) for January
I need to do this for each category (C)
My data would be something like this (I cant download addon from this PC, i have it at home)
id____number____category____month
1_____10_________A___________january
2_____20_________A___________january
3_____30_________B___________january
4_____40_________B___________january
1_____50_________A___________february
2_____60_________A___________february
3_____70_________A___________february
5_____80_________A___________february
so if I chose to put February in E1,
I would need the results something like follows:
category__new to category__left category__n__left totally
A___________(70+80)__________none____________(80)________none
B___________none____________(30+40)__________none________(40)
Tried to explore with sumifs but failed terribly.. does anyone know a formula that can sum up figures in different columns under the same Category.

In sort of a follow up to the Condensing A List Thread
[url]
I would like to condense the list into a series of list for each category.
The example below is a synoptic view with some data and does not include the full table.
I would like to do it with functions, i can do it with vb, at this point, I'm more on a mission to do it without it.
i've been having for quite some time now. I need to input quantity of items into the existing database that holds all the items names which is sorted by category. Below is a sample of the problem:
Table 1 - Items with quantity that is waiting for input:
Quantity
Product
5
Button A White
7
Ribbon B Blue
8
Thread A Black
10
Cloth A White
3
Button B Blue
4Button C White
9Ribbon A Pink15Button A White
Above is just a part of it, the list goes on to over 200 rows long.
Table 2 - Existing database of all products:
Products
Quantity
I have an Excel Sheet which has the Products column. I need to insert Category beside every products.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm attaching a spreadsheet in order for you to understand my question, and I will explain it based on that, ok? I apologize in advance for english mistakes, since it's not my 1st language. I want to search the salary value in column B and, in Column C, I need the job title to be posted based on what is written in Column J.
The table h2:i8 contains the maximum salary a person on that position can earn. So when you look the salary on column B, it should seach in column H and compare to the maximum value, and return the description on Column I that corresponds to that salary range. So if somebody earns 6500, it should be qualified as a supervisor, because its salary maximum is 7100. I have searched the forum here and found similar problems, with suggestions to use vlooup and Index. But I just can not figure it out.
I have a chart and a number of the data sets have a horizontal data but then some sets don't. How can I add the same horizontal data to the sets that don't?
