Fill In Blank Cells Referencing Non-Blank Cells Above
Apr 17, 2008
I have sporadic cell values in a column. I will be describing the lamen logic I use to fill in these blanks manually. Find the first nonblank cell in the column, then look for the next nonblank cell in the column. I count the number of blank cells in between. If even # of blank cells, then I give the first half of the blanks the value of the first nonblank cell and the second half of the blank cells the value of the next nonblanck. If odd # of blank cells, then I do the same with the exception that the odd cell that falls in the middle will be randomly designated the value of the either first or second nonblank cell.
I would like a formula that checks for blank cells only between C1:C10 and E1:E10 and then insert the first and last names of the person associated with these blank cells (which are located in A1:10 and B1:B10) on another worksheet, which for the sake of argument can be called 'sheet2'.
Say I have a column with cell values 4, 0, 0, 5, 0 , 0, 0, 2, 0, 3
What I am trying to do is have in the next column a formula which returns the number adjacent to it multiplied by the number of blanks between it and the next non-blank cell.
So, for the example above, the output would be 8, 0, 0, 15, 0, 0, 0, 2 etc
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.
Which pulls data in from another sheet in the workbook. If the referenced cell is empty, this has value 0.
I'd like to then include this cell in the calculation of an average, ignoring it if the cell it pulls from is empty but including it if that cell contains 0.
How do I get 'SUMIF' to ignore blank cells? sumif(a1:a10,h1,b1:b10) - then fill down
a= ID number h1 = ID number b= cost info
eg 'matt' in 'h' is finding 'matt' in 'a' and reporting on the cost info against that name in 'b', but in the middle of the list a blank is matching a blank and returning a subtotal which is in the cost column. I want to put sumif(a1:a10<>"",h1, b1:b10) but this doesnt work!
I have a workbook with 15000+ Isometric drawing nos. in column A and and joint nos. in Column B. I want to fill the blank cells with the isometric drawing no.s for the corresponding joint nos. A sample worksheet is attached.
I have two columns with data (length of column B represents total length of database.) Column A only has some blank cells.
I need to fill Column A blanks with the contents of cell above.
Monday Tuesday [blank cell] Wednesday Thursday [blank cell] [blank cell] ***end of column B
Therefore VBA to place Tuesday into blank and Thursday into the two blanks before bottom of the range of Column B.
Using record macro doesnt give me go to first blank etc.
something like
Start column A2 to End Find first blank, copy active cell -1 Next blank cell. (ins some cases it will copy the name it has just filled into cell above. Finish at last cell in Comumn B
Is there any way to fill blank cells going up instead of down, other than having to go to each section and dragging the fill handle. I'm looking at a list of data that has a summ code at the bottom of each section of data. I need to fill the blank cells above the summ code for each section.
For example:
D2-NHL RACE .001515 D2-SERVICE CODETO1515
NHSUMM CODETO1515 A0-ATBV TRIO DV .018989 A0-SERVICE CODETO8989 C0-ATBV C HN .017676 C0-ATBV C HNAC .0011 C0-SERVICE CODETO7777
Everything above NV needs to be filled with NV and everything aboveNH needs to be filled with NH. There are over 13000 lines of data. How do I accomplish assigning or filling the related summ codes in the blank cells in between?
I would like to get some code that will fill blanks in a range.
I have not used the board facilities properly. In the following table I need each blank cell in column B to be filled with the text from the preceding cell that has text in it.
i.e. B2 to be populated with "text1". Cells B4:B6 to be populated with "text2".
The code needs to know that row 9 is the last row to populate.
I wonder if soeone could change the following macro so that the bottomcell is set to be as far down as there is content in Column "A". As it stands if I fill in blank cells in Column "C" and the last cell with data is say C10 it does just this. But if the actual last row with data in column "A" is A14 then cells C11, C12, C13, and C14 are ignored. C11, C12, C13, and C14 should be the same as C10 above them.
Sub FillBlankCells() Dim topcell As Range, bottomcell As Range Set topcell = Cells(1, ActiveCell.Column) Set bottomcell = Cells(16384, ActiveCell.Column) If IsEmpty(topcell) Then Set topcell = topcell.End(xlDown) If IsEmpty(bottomcell) Then Set bottomcell = bottomcell.End(xlUp).Offset Range(topcell, bottomcell).Select Selection.SpecialCells(xlBlanks).Select Selection.FormulaR1C1 = "=R[-1]C" End Sub
Other macros recognize the actual last row.... but have issues with columns formatted as Text. The macro above doesn't create problems with columns formatted as "Text".
I am trying to fill down data in columns A:C but only if there is data in column D. I have butchered VBA into this working bit but the fill down stops too early.
Sub fillall() Set x = Worksheets("Paste"). Range("A3", "c3") Do Range(x, x.End(xlDown).Offset(-1, 0)).filldown Set x = Range(x.End(xlDown), x.End(xlDown).Offset(0, 2)) Loop Until x.End(xlDown).Offset(0, 3) = 0 End Sub
If A1 has a value of ABC, A2-A5 are blank A6 has a value of DEF A7-A10 are blank. Is there a formula that will fill A2-A5 with ABC, look at the value of A6 and see that it is different from A1-A5, or not blank, change the fill value to the new value, A6, then fill down the value of A6 into A7-A10 instead of manually using the fill handle?
I am looking for code that fills empty cells found in columns A-F by copying and pasting the value from the cell of the previous row (of the same column) ignoring columns G onwards. The copying/ pasting then should stop when it encounters its first completely blank row.
I just did a Group Subtotal. How do I fill all the blank cells in a column with the information in the cell above it without going to every individual cell?
I have been using this code I found awhile back to fill blank cells in a column with the preceding value. but it leaves the very last cell blank. Like this.
A B
41055182 905182
41054750 905182
[Code] ........
Is there a way to add possibly a "Do until column B is null or """?
Code: Sub FillBlanks() Dim rRange1 As Range, rRange2 As Range Dim iReply As Integer If Selection.Cells.Count = 1 Then MsgBox "You must select your list and include the blank cells", vbInformation, "OzGrid.com"
I have a macro that creates mutiple, though varing numbers of, columns. Once the columns are created, a blank column is set up to the right of them. When the data is ideal, only one cell in each row created by the populated columns will have data in it. So lets say that in this example, the macro created 23 columns of data. A1 is blank, B1 is Widget, and C1 through the end are also blank. I need a macro that will look at the rows and find the populated column and copy that string of data to the blank 24th column (to the right) created after the poulated columns. So X1 (the 24th column) will have Widget placed in it.
Now I need it to do one other thing. In another example, let say there are 5 columns created this time. In the third row, there is data in A3 and D3. If they are the equal to each other (A3 value being 143256 and D3 value being 143256), then I need the 6th column created to have 143256 placed in it. However, if the data differs ( A3 value being 143255 and D3 value being 143288) then I need the word "Scrap" to appear in the sixth column.
How do I make this to work with dynamic range instead running for complete column? For example: Run this code until last active cell in Column A. Column A will always has value so if cell A25 is last active cell in range then this code should stop executing for column R25. So execution of this code would depend on active cell in column A.
Columns("R:R").Select Dim Cell As Range For Each Cell In Selection.Cells If Cell.Value = True Then ' if true do nothing Cell.Value = "" ElseIf Cell.Value = False Then ' if false change to Null Cell.Value = "Null" End If Next
What I would like to do is to fill in B1:B3 with A0001 and B6:B9 with A0002. The number of rows in each set of data will vary, but the identifier (A000X) will always be located in the row in column B adjacent to the last entry for that set of data in column A and there will always be empty cells between data sets. The number of data sets will also vary.
Any other way of subtotaling data. I am an inventory analyst and do monthly/quarterly totals and averages of inventory used, and need a quick way to fill the blank cells with the part # that is below them, as shown below. I need the part #'s so I can then use CONCATENATE() and pull data from multiple time periods so the part #/year will match up down the page.
FILL P100012008360 FILL P100012009286 FILL P10001201072P10001718 FILL P1000220089,075 FILL P1000220091,124 FILL P1000220103,225 FILL P1000220116,375P1000219,799 FILL P10002PL20089,234 FILL P10002PL200912,150P10002PL21,384
I have a small challenge, where I am trying to fill blank cells with the data from the last populated cell above.
However, I need it to be able to automatically recognise when a manual entry has beed actioned down the column and recalculate for below that cell with the new data.
The data in the cell is selected from a drop down. I want it to populate all the cells below, until the next drop down is selected. And automatically repopulate them all when it is selected.
E.g. Cell C8 has the value "DATA" selected, and everything below is autofilled with "DATA", but when I select cell C12 with different drop down list value "VALUE", all the cells below stay as "DATA" because they are obviously no longer blank.
What I need if C9 - C11 to remain filled with 'DATA" and from C13 to auto fill with the newly selected value "VALUE".
Need this to happen for as many rows and data selections from the drop down as needed (endless).
I have used:
Code: Sub FillEmpty() Application.ScreenUpdating = False Application.Calculation = xlManual Dim cell As Range For Each cell In Intersect(Selection, _ ActiveSheet.UsedRange) If Trim(cell) = "" And cell.Row > 1 Then cell.NumberFormat = cell.Offset(-1, 0).NumberFormat cell.Value = cell.Offset(-1, 0).Value End If Next cell Application.Calculation = xlAutomatic 'xlCalculationAutomatic Application.ScreenUpdating = False End Sub
which does the auto fill, but won't change the cells below once one of them has been updated.
Info:
Drop down list has 31 possible selections at the moment
Starts at Cell C8
Needs to be flexible enough to add an indeterminate number of rows, and additional items to the drop down selection.
how to fill the blank cells in a Pivot table. I am using Excel 2007. How to do it in excel 2007. Heard that there is a provision in excel 2010 version.
However, I want to ignore the "" cells and the truly blank cells... However, I think all of them will have "" since I have this formula in all of the ones I'm putting in the range:
[Code]....
How do I go about getting these results into a named range so I can use it on validation since validation only seems to ignore truly blank cells and not the "" ones.
I can't modify my formula to leave blank cells blank when dragging it down, Also, I've got two formulas that i need to combine. Please view the comments I've put in cells E4, F2,F3,H2 and I2 to understand clearly what am seeking. See the attached worksheet.
But I dont want it to count the cells if the entire row, within that cell, i.e. C6:AD6, is blank.
It should only count the blank cells within a row if there has been some data entered on that row..provided it has been entered within the specified range.
I am looking for an IF statement that would leave a balance cell blank if both the revenue and expense cells are blank, otherwise a formula would be calculated.
I presume this is fairly simple to do, since it's certainly easy enough to do manually by filling in a couple of rows and dragging them down, but I need it to be performed in a macro that I can run before other macros run.
What I need specifically is for the macro to go to G1 and insert the number .01... Then go to G2 and insert .02... Then G3 and insert .03... And repeat this until it finds the first non-blank cell ( row number this occurs at varies), at which point it ends and does nothing to that populated cell or any other cell in the column thereafter (including other blanks farther down).
Here's what I'm attempting to do: For each column, X,Y, Z, I am attempting to count nonblanks. However, the data was imported from Access and Oracle, and Excel treats what appear to be blank cells as nonblanks. I've tested this theory by highlighting a couple of "blank" cells and deleting them, and my count changes. So, can I get Excel to put a value into my "blank" cells, so then I could filter it out, or create a formula that would only count dates in my columns (which is what I'm after).
This is what I'm looking at:
A B C 1 2/4/2006 2/6/2006 ("blank") 2 ("blank") 12/13/2005 1/7/2006 3 2/20/2006 1/15/2006 ("blank")
In each column if I use a COUNTA I'll get a total of 3, instead of 2 for A, 3 for B and 1 for C.
The range of cells in column B containing the items has a name "ColStreams"
I need to go through the list, filling in each blank cells with the value contained in the first non-blank cell above it - so, in this case, rows 6 and 7 would contain "Item 2", row 9 would contain "Item 3", rows 11-13 would contain "Item 4" and so on.
