I have a file about 13 Megs. I deleted a lot of data and saved it. It was 1 Meg bigger. I closed it, reopened, saved again. 700 k smaller than before, but still bigger than original. That is strange. There must be a way to get the dirt out.

Sometimes my brain just fails me and I'm pretty sure this is a simple one:
In M5:
IF(ISBLANK(L5), (Use whichever number is greater: G5 or H5), (otherwise Subtract L5 from greater of G5 or H5))
The jist of the problem is that employees are paid their normal wage up untill 37.5 hours of work. From 37.5 to 40 hours of work they are paid 1.5 times their wage. Any hours over 40 are paid at 2 times the regular wage.
So i need a formula that can work out their total pay. Im not sure what i could put in a dummy document to help you since it would just be one cell for their hourly wage, one for their hours worked and then one for the calculation. so you can reference any cell as an example and assume £6 as hourly rate
Is there a forumula that will allow me to find the smallest number in A1:A10 that is also larger than the number in B1?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have and xls list that needs to be saved in a text format without the use of "". The data needs to be read as data not as "data". The only way I have been able to do this is to save the file as a .prn and then rename the extension to .txt. My problem is that in order to rename the prn file i need to exit the file. If I do that then the macro ends and it will not rename. So I have worked around that by saving a second copy and then renaming the first copy. But I do not want to have a second copy. any ideas on how to get around this or to delete the scond copy from within the macro?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to automate a redundant task. I have several Word files in one central folder. I need to open each file, remove all paragraph marks (via find/replace all), copy the result, and paste it into an Excel sheet. This process will be repeated for each file in the folder.
The code I have is almost there, however, I can't get it to do the find/replace. Below is an extract of my code for the Word application part. The code for the copy and paste will be inserted after the replace action works:
Dim Wapp As Object
Dim i As Integer
WorksheetsLocation = TextBox1.Value ' this is the folder location brought in from an input box
On Error Resume Next
Set wApp = GetObject(, "Word.Application")
If Err.Number 0 Then 'Word isn't already running
Set wApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
End If
On Error GoTo 0
I have a template that when it is opened it will automatically save the file to a specific location with the date in the file name.
Currently my code is
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "G:Shared"IT_New " & Format(Date, "mm-dd-yy") & ".xls", , , , , , xlShared
End Sub
Does anyone know a way to have this code disabled (either by deleting or making it all a comment) on the saved file (xls) so the speadsheet does not try and overwrite itself when I go back and open a previous days spreadsheet?
I have a list with random ordered numbers (each number in a cell of a row): 1, 2, 6, 8, 11, 12, 16...
On the other hand I get a value (x). I want a formula that:
- If x is in the list, returns x
- If x is not in the list, returns the next higher value. For example, if x=8, returns 11
I want also a variation of the same formula, that returns the next lower value. For example, if x=8, returns 6.
Note that x will never be smaller than the first number on the list or higher than the highest number in the list.
Is there any way witch i can use to make the auto-filter range bigger than 1000 cells?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to figure out how to create a Macro code in Excel that will delete text file page breaks. Each page break starts with a square in column A and ends with the word continued in column D. I've tried several times, but when I test the code and I highlight the section to delete, it only deletes those specific rows next time. How can I get it to delete the rows from the square to "Continued" throughout the document without making reference to specific cell numbers?

I have an month input in cells B2 (user can enter values from 1-5)
I then have a data table that has month 1,2,3,4,5 running across range G9:K9. the data is held in range G10:K19.
So if user types in 4 in B2, what should happen is that months 1,2,3 and 4 the data for these months should be cleared and data in month 5 moves forward into month 1.
So basically, anything left of the month entered is B2 should be cleared and replaced with anything right of the month in B2.

I have several files of data that are from a data logger. The data is broken up by day. Each day has roughly 43000 rows of data, at its sample rate. This has made charting the data a nuisance. Is there a way to resample the data so it fits in the 32000 points excel can chart? In the future I will set a sample rate that will keep the number of points below the 32K per series. I would like to be able to have the total number of points reduced by averaging the data not by simply deleting one of every four rows.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am currently dealing with an excel sheet that I am using to track people that I have contacted over the phone.
I created a drop down box for a column titled "Contacted". Under this drop down I have included: "Yes" - I reached them; "YES/CB" - I reached them, but need to call back; "NO/LVM" - I did not reach them, but I left a voicemail; and "NO/NVM" - I did not reach them and I was unable to leave a voicemail.
My goal is to have several Sheets in this 1 workbook.
Question: How do I get the WHOLE row of data to transferred to a new sheet(s) depending on the selection I make, i.e. "Yes/CB" or "NO/NVM" ??? Make note: I would like the data to disappear from the original sheet when it is transferred to its new home.

I'm using excel to parse txt a file with account numbers in it. If it finds a dodgy number I want it to delete the entire line in the text file. I have manage to write the code that opens the file and locates the dodgy numbers, however I'm not sure whether it is posible to select the line and delete it.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a template file for ordering trafolyte and steel plates. I have added macros to this template file. The existing macros do the following (shortly described):
Macro 1: clears order
Macro 2: update order date + send a read only file to the supplier of plates + save a read only copy of the file into one of three folders acc to info in one of the cells.
It's the Macro 2 I want to edit.
I want to add a "function" which copy a selection of data.column A to N from row 12 to 548 but only the rows where there is a value in column A.
Row 1 to 11 includes standard order info and Macro buttons.
Row 11 includes the heading for order data.
For everytime someone click on the Macro 2 button in the template file, I want the selection to be paste into the first "available" row in a "Total list" file.
The "Total list" file may have to be open (or a function to open, paste selection and then close the "Total list" file may be added)
File and Folder info:
To simplify suggestions, the following file and path info can be used (I can change to the correct later):
Template file name: template_order.xlsm
Template file location: \servershared emplate
Total list file name: total_list.xlsx
Total list file location: \servershared otal
Selection info:
The template file exists of a "general order info area" A1:N10
The column heading for order data is located at A11:N11
The selection to be copied is A12:N550 - But only rows where column A includes data (not empty).
(If the spesific order consists of 14 plates than there will be item no 1-14 in column A and I then I want to copy A12:N25 (row 25 will be item 14).
When I try to use record macro it looks like it only records what's happening in the template file - It doesn't record the pasting in the total list.
I have to delete data from D15 to AZ129, D168 to AZ282, D312 to AZ426 in 46 excel files, saved in the same folder. I go through the process manually by opening each file and then deleting data.

I want a macro which can detect empty cell in rows and can delete whole row in which that empty cell is .and want to shift rows up. Macro should start searching empty cells from Column B meaning that It should not delete cells in Column A.
And I want this function in all sheets except parent sheet at position 1.

I have searched around and cannot find exactly what im looking for. I have a table of data and want to delete it all by clicking a button. I only want it to delete the rows which have data in.
Example
A1 = Apple
A2 = Apple1
A3 = Apple2
A4 = Apple3
A5 = *Empty*
So it would delete A1-A4 and not delete A5.
I have created a spreadsheet with 4820 rows of data (4821 for computational purposes, the last row being blank) with 5 columns.
1. every third row is blank and it needs to be removed (3, 6, 9,...4818, 4821). Once this is accomplished,
2. I need to move the data that is now found in the even rows, column E moved to the above, current odd row, column F. (ie. E2 to F1, E4 to F3, E6 to F5,...E4808 to F4807...,E4820 to F4819 (however it won't go this high). then
3. I need to delete all the current even rows, as the data I need will be in the odd rows.
