Excel 2011 :: Assigning Time Zones To List Of Area Codes?
Feb 5, 2014
I call prospects to generate business. I want to respect their time by calling before 8:00 PM so I need to know their time zone. I have a column in Excel that lists their area code, but I don't know their state.
I have tried everything imaginable to duplicate the results of the previous post to no avail. I'm using Excel 2011 on a Mac.
I'm using =VLOOKUP(B2,$I$2:$J$364,10) for my formula, where
B2 is the area code $I$2:$J$364 is the range where the area code/time zone data lives (I = area codes, J = Time Zone) 10 is column J, i.e. the Time Zone column that "feeds" the answer.
I've attached a screen shot to show what I'm doing.Screenshot at Feb 05 15-33-01.jpg

I have to go through the tedious process of pulling out my areacode/time zone sheet and going through each of the phone numbers and assigning it the proper time zone in the zone column. Usually Est, Cen, Mtn, or Pac
I would like to create a function that will automatically assign the time zone to the area code for me and everytime I buy new leads I can run this same function which will save me so many hours of tedious work. I think I would need to save it as a macro after I'm done creating it if I'm not mstaken
I keep the 3 digit area codes in their own column, column "B" and I keep the Zones in column "D"

I am using Excel 2011 on a mac. I have a selection of data that lists a repeating code (say group 1, group 2, group 3 etc)and a value (-1,-2.3,3,6 etc) and need to find a quick way group together all the codes and next to that a value that counts how many values who share the same code hold a value greater than -1? I can do this myself in a pivot chat with count totals but my issue is how I can show the number of codes greater than -1.
Attached is an example of the data I want to sort.

A client buys 500 minutes of my time. In one week I spend 340 minutes on the account. I'd like a column to show Time purchased (say 500 Minutes) Time spent and a final section showing time left (but showing negative values in red)
I hope I've explained this ok but here is an illustration of what I'm trying to achieve in Excel 2011.

I am looking for a function to convert time given by my computer (Local time) in EST (Eastern Standard Time). We are several users of a same file (with timestamp macros) and all time need to be aligned to one time zone (EST), even if all users are working in different time zone (EST, CST and IST).

I have an origin and destination matrix with one set of zones and need to convert it to another set of zones. This involves combining some zones together. I tried a sum if, but it didnt work. I have done the calcs individually but will have to repeat the process so was looking for a wuicker, more efficient and less error risk!
Just to clarify, I have to convert a 23 by 23 matrix into a 14 by 14.

I am trying to sort a list of business development leads. When a lead is dead I enter the date in the column entitled "Closed". Therefore, the Closed cell for active leads is blank. Whilst I still wish to retain the information of dead leads, when sorting I would like them listed at the bottom of the list. However, whenever I sort on the Closed column, whether using newest to oldest or oldest to newest, the blank cells are always at the bottom, instead of the top.
How to get the sorted blank cells to the top?

I am running Excel 2011 on Mac OS X. I am trying to save a file (.xls) to a server (Autumn). I have tried several configurations to try to get the file saved properly. File name is "Testfile.xls"
1. folderpath = "Autumn:Tim:TestFolder:" & filename --Activeworkbook.Saveas filename:=folderpath
2. folderpath = "Tim:TestFolder:" & filename Activeworkbook.Saveas filename:=folderpath
3 Activeworkbook.Saveas folderpath
When I try this, I get an Error 1004 indicating that it cannot find the file. Do I need to eliminate the .xls and then specify that when I do the saveas?

I have a workbook with multiple sheets that I need to print.
Is there a way to create a fixed print area within which you can mess around with formatting without extending or shrinking the print area?
I have tried adjusting the margins settings so that they are all the same, but this does nothing to keep a fixed print area.

For Mac Excel 2011, though I think my question would apply to any modern version of Excel.
This is a little odd. I have a sheet where, for various reasons (see below ### if interested), I need to copy a hyperlink, replace a substring, and then return the new hyperlink (with old friendly text) to the original cell. (I actually have to do this with an arbitrarily-long column of links.) This was my plan of attack:
* Pull the URL from the hyperlink cell.
* Use FIND and RIGHT to strip out what I need and replace it
* Use HYPERLINK to build a new cell with the original friendly text and the new hyperlink.
* (Manually) copy this new link (really, a column of links) back to the original cell (really, column of cells).
Here's where it breaks down:
a) If I simply cut-and-paste, the formula used to pull the hyperlink becomes circular (as do several others), and Excel complains.
b) If I cut-and-paste-special (values only), I get just the friendly text, no link info. Likewise if I try to reference the "fixed" hyperlink.
The erroneous hyperlinks are in column K. My calculated correct hyperlinks are in column S. (There are similar errors and fixes in L and T, respectively.)

I want to open all csv files in a folder and just copy and paste some columns into another file. I am having a bit of trouble with the following code which can be found at ozgrid and I have modified slightly so it looks in the current directory instead of a fixed path...
Code:
Sub RunCodeOnAllFiles()
Dim lCount As Long
Dim MyDir as string
[Code]....
For starters, if I don't use on error resume next I get a runtime error 445: object doesn't support this action. So when I use the on error resume next, then by the time it gets to the foundfiles line, there are no variables set, so on the next line (workbooks.open) nothing happens.
Is there an easier (more up to date?) method to open all csv files (or excel files) in a folder?

I'm using Excel 2011 on a MacBook Pro. Here's my situation:
I'm running a monthly budget report that's got three spreadsheets within the workbook. Spreadsheet #1 is summary sheet with a few pivot tables. Spreadsheet #2 is the data sheet, where all of the information is entered, and is what feeds the pivot tables on Spreadsheet #1. Spreadsheet #3 is just a list page that populates the drop-down list on the second sheet.
As this is a monthly budget report, I'd like to find some way to archive the first spreadsheet (the summary sheet) every month. Ideally, I'd like to be able to create a macro-driven button that, when clicked, does the following actions:
1) Creates a new spreadsheet, with each click, named for the current month and year.
2) Archives the exact contents of Spreadsheet #1 by making an exact copy of its current contents, and places this copy into the newly created spreadsheet.
3) Clears the data from Spreadsheet #1 AND Spreadsheet #2.
To summarize, I'm trying to use a button that, when clicked, runs a macro that archives the current month's data into a new spreadsheet, and then clears the data from Sheets #1 and #2 so that I can start each month with a clean slate. If there's a way to only clear the data from certain cell ranges (as opposed to a complete wipe of the sheet), that would be even better.

How would I go about making this new column on page 1 of my workbook which takes all the area codes I have and makes a brand new list of the states by looking up the area code/state table I have on page 2 of the workbook?

My software is Excel for Mac 2011 version 14.4.3 (140616).
I am using the present value formula =PV(rate, nper, pmt, [fv], [type]), with the pmt expressed as a negative number, to determine the present value of a lump sum that would generate specific, equal, regular annual payments, exhausting itself in the process. I fill it in this way: rate is an annual rate, nper is the number of years the payments run, pmt is the annual amount paid each year, fv =0, type =1
I would like to be able to have a similar formula in Excel that would do the same thing except that it would take into account a time period where no payment is made, ie a "delay".
For example using the PV formula I know that if I have $49,019.96 invested at 1%, it will generate $10,000 per year for 5 years, leaving a net investment of 0. I would like to know the formula that would tell me how much I would need to invest at 1% to yield $10,000 per year for 5 years, again exhausting itself completely in the process, with the first $10,000 payment starting 3 years from now. I know it would be less because I would have the full amount earning interest for 3 years at 1% before any payments need to be made.

I am working on a spreadsheet for my Building company. I'm building a tool to price for Fascia, Soffits and Cladding.
I'm using Macbook Pro Microsoft Office for Mac 2011
Please see attached file
The first sheet holds all the lists of products, Category Headings list is in column A and then all the relevant products and prices are then from B to BI. I have defined each category with a name by selecting the cells and entering a name in the name box.
The second sheet is a Calculator in which I would like a to have a drop down list in the Category Column (Which I have worked out how to do myself - good old google) and then a drop down list in the second column which lets the user select from a list of results based on the selection from the previous column.
Example:
Category(B3) - 18mm Fascia/Replacement Board (Square White) - Drop down menu taken from sheet 1 A3:A33
Description (C3) - Drop down list containing all the options from D2:D15 Named "FasciaReplacementBoard18mmWhite"
So basically, whatever the user selects in Column B (from the category list) a drop down list would be available in Column C
The Value column would then show a value based on the options selected.

I am using Excel 2011 and we have a link data source to the outside SQL Server.
For the 1st step, I linked to the Database and retrieve the data.
P1.png
2nd step. Sort the data by using the column "Description" Descending. Add another column to the table and put the 1, 2, 3, etc in that column.
P2.png
3rd step. I clicked on "Refresh" and the new column values are not consistent. I mean they are moving. So, I added another row in the database to test and it becomes very obvious. It can be clearly seen at the following image. The value of "A" should always be "10", but it has been changed to "1" after the refresh.
P3.png
how I could retain the position of another column after the data refresh?

I have Excel MAC 2011 and my spreadsheet was created with multiple cell colors randomly throughout the spreadsheet.
I need to change all the royal blue colored cells to "no color" without changing the data contained in the cell. For example; Cells A5:A38 are blue, A39 is green, A40:A50 blue, A51:60 green, ... Cells B5:B15 are grey, B16:B20 are blue, B21 is yellow...
I can't find the "Advanced Options" for Find and Replace that might have allowed me to specify a color change.

I have switched from an ageing Mac Powerbook, Excel 2004 for Mac, and an out-of-date version of Firefox to an IMac with Excel 2011 for Mac and Safari as a browser. The only reason why I mention this is because I don't know if it was easier to do this on an older platform (one of those bizzare situations where going forwards is actually a step backwards).
In short I like doing things with Sports data in Excel. Usually I would hit my favourite website for pulling sports data (which incidentally I don't know if this has changed as I've been too busy to do much of this kind of thing for about 4 months - or if it is just a different format on a newer machine/different browser);
[URL] ....
The link should be showing NFL results for this year so far (I like the site as it has a handy amount of other sports etc.).
I would usually then go edit/paste special - unicode text and then hit the paste options, use the text import wizard, go delimited, tabs - and usually everything would come in on a row and then I could do what I need to do with it (e.g. use Excel's text functions to get the data - taking spaces out for example - to where I want it to do other things).
The problem I seem to be having now is that when I do the above - things no longer seem to come in on the same row (which makes life difficult for doing things easily with the data). Once things end up on different rows it becomes a pain to do basic things.
In short is there a way round this (or do I need to find another source for my data with tables laid out in a more friendly way to "borrow" data)?

I am building a code based on a command button in a row, which will check is a worksheet exists (message), if not create a worksheet from a template (from another worksheet specific to a on a cell value in the same row), rename the worksheet based on a cell value in the same row.
I am having some success for each task with exception to relative cell values .....
As the code will be specific to the row (one button per row) Questions:
how to i determine the location of the button that is clicked? (I assume once this is established i can use to pull values in the same sheet on certain columns....?)
