Excel VBA - Check Cells For Specific PIECE Of Formula
Jul 28, 2014
VBA to loop through all the cells, or an active selection, and if it finds a cell with a formula that starts with "=VLOOKUP" or "GETPIVOTDATA", then copy and paste values for those cells. If it comes across a cell that starts with "=SUM" then it leaves it as is. I've been looking for way to insert a wildcard to make this work, but can't seem to find anything.
What I am attempting to do is search if 2 cells contain specific text. For example in Column C I want to output "Yes" only if cell A and B are Yes otherwise the output is "No".
ABC 1YesYesYes 2YesNoNo 3NoNoNo
I have tried =IF(A1=B1="Yes", "Yes, "No") to no avail
I've tried this in formulas (if, if/and, if/vlookup, if/vlookup/and) and I've been trying to write a macro for this (which I'm thinking needs to loop).
Problem: I have a report that is broken into three categories.
Column A includes locations, Column B includes vendors. Across the top, the monthly report is broken into four classifications (trans types), which are then further subdivided by quantity and cost. (Rough estimation is provided below)
Locations Vendor Z53
Z50
Z51
Z52
[code]....
My data comes in sorted by location, and subtotaled by vendor and trans type. So I'll have a row of data that includes:
What I need to do is pull the data for Z53 based on Location & Vendor. So from the data is would read Location 1 & Vendor A and then find them on the report and paste into the appropriate row (in my report Z53 qty is col E and $ is col F).
I was trying to do a macro that within a determined range (finding the first and last instance of Z53) would match location and vendor to the monthly report and paste the values of Qty and $ into the appropriate fields. Below is what I managed to mangle:
Code: Dim Holder1 As Range Dim Holder2 As Range Dim Holder3 As Range Dim Holder4 As Range Dim Found As Range Dim y As Range Dim x As Range Dim Z0 As Range
[code]......
I was originally trying to match from the report to the data and then copy back to the report, but I had the idea of instead taking the location and vendor from the data and finding the match on the report and pasting. That way I wouldn't have to worry about errors (unless a new location was added that was not included on the report - which I think is an easier fix than trying to go the other way, but maybe not).
I have two cells which refer to employee number: A1 and A2 (employee numbers are 001, 002, 003, etc)
I want Cell A3 to check if either A1 or A2 = 001
If both cells is 001, I want an "error message" because that is not allowed, and if one of them = 001 then I want the value from Cell A4 to be but in Cell A3.
I am using Excel 2010 and basically i am trying to fill a range of cell with a green color if any value was enter in a specific cells. Example: I would like to fill range: A10:c13 with a green color (regardless of the cells content in this range) if a value was entered in cell C10 or C11 or C12 or C13.
I've tried conditional formatting but unfortunately I'll have to apply formatting for every cell and for a range of over hundred cells is not efficient.
I have a spreadsheet that uses IF(C5>J5,(EDATE(C5,12)),(EDATE(J5,12)))__ IF(J9<D9,(D9-$N$1)) where N1 is current date. If C5 and J5 are empty how do I get it to ignore the formula and just leave the other cells blank?
I need a formula that will search the range D8-D100 to confirm that all cells within that range are either 11 characters in length or blank. I will use it inside of an error message that will look something like this:
=IF(****formula that checks to make sure all of the cells in that range are blank or 11 characters****=TRUE, "", "Please make sure that all cells are 11 digits or blank")
Trying to figure out a VB Script but don't know where to start.
I have a sheet for each month. lets take September 2013
A Column with 200 Servers (A1:A200) on the Intranet listed as server-1/, Server-2/ Server-3 ... Server-200/ Each Server lists a location of a file for each day (31 columns per row)
I am trying to check for the existence of the files on each server (The Cells contain the URL and File Name in Range B2:AF201) starting with server-1 check the URL in B2 if it exists, go to C2, Continue with that row until the file check is False (The Page will show a 404 error) if not found delete cell url and continue. do this for all 200 rows
I have a spreadsheet. it's not a big spreadsheet, it's not a complicated spreadsheet.
It links to another which is stuffed full of pivot tables and offset/match/index's.
For whatever reason the simple summary sheet regularly corrupts itself, i.e. when you close it Excel crashes (using 2003 on XP), it recovers but links are corrupted and when you open the last saved original that's corrupted too (it says data corruption has happened).
So I've added a piece of code which can recreate the corrupted spreadsheet from the corrupted version (it changes each month so a standard template won't work).
I'd like to not install an add-in on peoples PCs with the recovery code, but I can only do that if I can replicate the VBA in the new file.
can a piece of code copy a module of VBA from one workbook to another?
I'm looking for a formula that shows one piece of data but only if another criteria is met. Eg Column A1:A:100 show a piece of paperwork has been issued and column E1:E100 show the area that it's been issued to (North, South, East, Central)
I have a blank work sheet showing various % of things being late as a whole but also want to break this down into the four areas.
How do I go about assigning a number to a particular piece of data? To give a simple example of what I'm trying to do, and what I envision, I'll pretend I'm building a sandwich.
So, someone could come along and build their sandwich, ham/turkey/tomato/mayo on white bread. Excel would then recognize that 1+3+4+7+8=23 23=The American (the name of the sandwich, which I've already assigned a variable to)
I'm using the sandwich model because its a lot simpler than what I'm attempting to do.
I want the buttons to run a seperate piece of code to start, but then all buttons run a similar piece of code at the end. I am hoping to be able to pass a variable from the first piece of code each button runs into the section of code that all share (which I have done as a seperate macro)
I want to color the cells for some specific texts in RED, and some in BLUE and some in GREEN.
For Eg: I want to color the cells in RED, which contains below specific texts in a sheet. UNIX LINUX MS OFFICE POWER POINT....like this for nearly 100 specific texts.
and I want to color the cells in BLUE, which contains below texts in a sheet. JAVA .NET SQL MSDOS....like this for nearly 100 more specific texts.
If i create a rule in conditional formatting for each text,I have to create nearly 400+ rules for my task now, which is not possible.
I have data in Row 53 that spans 7 columns, but stays in the same row. I want to design a loop to select every 7th cell in that row and check if it is empty. If not, add onto a "counter" then display the final number of occupied cells (the value of the counter) at the end. This is what I have so far, but I get all sorts of errors.
Code: Sub Tester()
Dim WB As Workbook Dim WS As Worksheets Dim modCounter As Long Dim Cell As Range
Set WB = Workbook("Transverse Series.xlsm") Set WS = WB.Sheets(BM18)
I have a spreadsheet like the one below. The data is just a bunch of 1s but they are in specific cells:
A1 A2 A3 A4 1 A5 1 A6 A7 A8 1 A9 A10
I need to calculate the number of rows between the first piece of data and the last. In the above example the answer would be A8-A4 = 4 Rows.
I am thinking I need an array that searches for the first data point, then returns the cell ID, does the same for the last data point then subtracts the higher cell id from the lower.
I need to add something to my macro to delete a sheet if it doesn't have more than 40 rows of data. If it has more than that, it needs to do a whole bunch of stuff to it. I've already got the whole bunch of stuff written, I'm just not sure how to do the if function. I took a stab at it, but it wants the count to be an object. I am not very good at writing code.
Code:
Dim count As Integer Set count = "COUNT('33M & 33RUL'!A:A)" If waffle Is "
i have created a form in excel sheet1 (not a VBA form) and there are 10 cells with headings in the form which need to fill the data but i want to copy certain cells (suppose 6 different cells) from my form which is in sheet1 and paste to another sheet2 to certain columns horizontally.
How we can select specific cells in the filtered data using VBA in Excel 2010.
I need to select 10th column, 5th row data .. or 10th column, 6th row data .. or 13th column, 8th row data...
How to select this data using VBA.. I am struck here .. If I give the below code.. the hidden cells inbetween the filtered data is getting selected.. only the first row is getting selected correctly.. i.e, ..rnVisible(1, 2).Select .. If I change the row like rnVisible(2, 12).Select its selecting the hidden cells ..
Dim rnVisible As Range Set rnVisible = ActiveSheet.Rows("2:10000").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible) rnVisible(2, 12).Select MsgBox ActiveCell.Address
Have developed a form for my associates and want them to be able to move to the cellls I want them to fill data in to by merely hitting the TAB or ENTER key vs. having to move the cursor to each cell requiring them to input data.
Want cursor to move in a specific cell order. You would think you could merely say 1M, 2C, etc.
Let me start by stating that I am a novice at writing macro script. I am trying to write a script that will open and search a Word doc, find specific text in that document, and populate certain excel cells with that information.
Ex. of Word doc:
5.1.2.3 Install gasket [12], using bolt [5] and nut [8].
5.1.2.4 Uninstall gasket [12] and scrap gasket and fasteners.
I would like the script to search for and populate any number between the [ ] into a specific excel cell, also I would like it to identify and populate an excell cell with the associated step, e.g.: "5.1.2.3", which will be at the begining of that step (step could be several sentences long). Also, I would like the script to look for and identify/populate an excel cell with any number of words such as: "install", "uninstall", "break", "scrap", or "remove" also associated with that step.
I have a workbook used for scheduling purposes and you can add hours to it by typing in D+1 or D-1, etc. I want to prevent this from working and just ignore the cell if the cell contents say "DC". I've tried to adjust my formula but haven't had any luck. I've attached an example worksheet with the formula for an easier understanding.
I have thousands of data entries (each in their own row, all in one column) and need to separate the basic info. In the example below, say you want to isolate the Town names by entering a formula that can produce a TRUE or FALSE result. Is there a way to use the FIND function and a pool of terms to isolate cells that contain excess data (i.e.- produce a FALSE result for cells containing any words from a term pool like : "Police, Park, Power, Water, Community, Bakery, Grocery, Field, Garden, Post Office, School" etc... ) ?
Pic of sample spreadsheet with desired result:

example as text:
A2 = Springfield A3 = Springfield Police Department A4 = Springfield Community College A5 = Springfield Park Of Recreation A6 = Des Moines A7 = Des Moines Power & Water Company A8 = Des Moines Sunrise Bakery A9 = Des Moines Post Office A10 = Des Moines Grocery Store A11 = Lancaster A12 = Lancaster Baseball Field A13 = Lancaster Botanical Gardens
How can I create a formula to add up how many cells in a column show a particular set of text? For instance; the column in my spreadsheet looks something like this:
MJR DML MJR RJG RJG MJR DML
I want to know how I can create a formula that will automatically tell me how many times "MJR" is listed; how many times "DML" is listed, and so on.
I have a table with average temperatures(120,125,130...220) on the vertical axis and equipment sizes across the horizontal access (size 1,2,3...11). At the intersections is the amount of heat given off the equipment. This table is used as a reference for another sheet in the same workbook.
Basically what the sheet is for is to look up the average temperature of a piece of equipment (given the size and exact heat given off). In order to do this, I need to interpolate using the 2 closest energy values and their associated temperatures. There's a better explanation in the file and it makes for sense when you're looking at it. Attached is the table.
I am using Excel 2010 and I am trying to average the amount of days in a month to a daily average per person in my worksheet.
Total sales per person A5 = 10 - This is the Grand total per person for column A A6 =4 A7=6
Daily average per person C5=2.6 - Average for all persons here C6=2.0 C7=3.0
The formula I am using is:
=(SUMPRODUCT($A$6:$A$15,C6:C15))/$A5
Which gives me an answer of 2.6 in cell C5 as shown above which is what I am wanting.
Please note that my cell range for my staff goes from 6-15 for both Column A and C where the other cells are blank in both columns.
My question is, If I was to clear all the data in both Columns A6:A15 and C:6:C15, cell C5 would return to a #VALUE. How to I change the formula so that if the cells were Blank, cell C5 would also be blank until I enter data for each person again?
am trying to write code to check if a cell contains specific text.
Basically, I hide all of the rows on the spreadsheet, and unhide them only if certain conditions are true.
Everything else, including first check is not a problem, it is just the part where I need to find specific text within a cell that contains various words.
Also, the cell I am searching for the text in is on a different sheet within the same book.
e.g. ------------------------ 'Check for Specific parts If Cells(intCount, 11).Value = "Yes" And ??(Does Cell 'x' (on a different worksheet) Contain the Word "Specific")? Then
'Select row Rows(intCount).Select 'hide row Selection.EntireRow.Hidden = False End If ------------------------
I looking for a macro that will go through multiple sheets & change specific cells to values if the column header is = to value set in specific cell.
for example
I would like the macro to look at row 3 in each tab (page 1, page 2, page 3) and if the value you is equal to X (parameter input on different sheet) then change the formula to a value in row 6 & row 12 of that column.
I'm attaching an simple example that i looking for this on. The green cells are the one i would like to change to a value.
