I have a list of data in a column that has blanks along the way.However, I don't just want to fill it up with the one above, or the one below.
If the data is in column B, I want to fill it such that where the row above has the same criteria in column A, column B for the above row is returned.Otherwise, column B in the row below should be filled in instead.I have set up example data below to illustrate.
I'm simply inputting zeroes and ones down Column A. Basically, I either put a "0" or a "1" in A1, then A2, then A3, etc. However, I want to create a Macro that allows me to simply type in a string of 1's and 0's and it automatically takes each 1 and 0 and fills it in down the column. This website has the basic idea (Automatically Moving from Cell to Cell when Entering Data (Microsoft Excel)) but I need only one number per cell and for it to move down the column, not across the row. Here's what I have so far:
Sub SAMPLE() Dim str As String Dim x As Integer Dim y As Integer str = InputBox("Enter string") y = 0 For x = 1 To Len(str) Step 4 ActiveCell.Offset(y, 0) = "'" & Mid(str, x, 4) y = y + 1 Next End Sub
*I can't get it to only break down into one number per cell down Column A. I think the Mid function or something needs to change.
I have a column of data with various values and a bunch of blank spaces. Essentially I want to leave the values as is but fill in the blank cells with a number. I’ve written a loop to do this in VBA, which grabs the value in the cell above, but it’s somewhat slow. Is there a more efficient way to do this?
Sub Downfill(Max) ' 'This count variable is used to run the loop Dim i As Long
Here's the outline of my problem...I'm building a directory of hedge fund contacts and need help in cleaning data and automating the entry of fields that will remain the same. I have one workbook with 2 pages... One is for the Companies and the other is for the contacts that work at those companies.
ex. Company #551 is 1794 Management - on this page we have fields for address, floor, city, state, zip, phone, fax and website.
on worksheet 2 is where the contacts are kept... the identifier is #551... on the contacts page all contacts under a specific company number will correspond to that company.
Here's where it gets tricky.... for the contacts the addresses are all formatted differently - first I'd like to sort by management co and address and have excel copy the first listed address format and copy this to the other contacts for that company.... when the formula reaches the next contact with company #552 it will look for the new first address and use this one for all that companies contacts.
after the formula finishes the fomating I'd like the sheet to become intuitive( dont know if this can be done but what I'm looking for is say when I add a new row and enter #551 as a company and enter the new first name, last name, and job title - if the excel sheet noticing that all contacts under that format have the same address, phone, fax, company name etc...
I am working with monsterous excel sheets (named Data) and need to a column that is governed by the ZIP. I have a sheet named Source in my excel folder with all the matching information next to the excel sheet. The column my zip codes in Data starts on J6 to J290 and the zip codes in Source are from A2 to A2671. The information I am trying to pull from Source to Data are names and branches located in Source from B2:E2671.
What function will auto fill the columns with the correct information. If it can only be done by putting a function into each column, that is not a problem
As you can see, I have 2 worksheets. I want that all entries in columns B,D,E and F automaticly fill in in multiple tables in sheet2. Also, if possible that macro creates tables (for example: if I have 100 rows, I want to extract 100 separetly values from column B,D,E and F and to enable automatic creation for new table - for 101 entry )
here is the dropbox link of the file:

So, I want when I click on the button I want to automaticly import all mentioned values into sheet 2 (I have marked with RED where to put values from which column). In this example, I expect, when I clik on Print all tables button, to print 7 tables in sheet2. In sheet2 I have 2 tables as you can see.
I have a peptide sequence that is 4500 amino acids long. I have the numbers 1 - 4500 in column A and the corresponding letter code for the amino acid in that position in column B. I have done a bunch of other calculations and isolated small series of amino acids within the entire sequence (example: positions 25-42, 153-166, 381-297, etc). I would like to fill column C with either a blank space or, if it is in one of the selected series, the letter code again. So that the first 24 rows of column C would be blank but rows 25-42 would mirror the letter shown in B. Then blank spaces again until we reach row 153, etc.
I've used a vlookup to paste the letters with the chosen parts of the sequence, but now I want to space them out along the entire 4500 so that I can see if there are overlapping areas between several sets of criteria for choosing series (these would go in columns D, E, etc).
I'm attempting to make a simple userform that inputs data onto an existing worksheet. I have the userform but would like to use a combo box to choose a "category" item of data, however I dont know what the categories are! I would like the combo box to, somehow, look at the spreadsheet and read off the already entered categories and offer those as choices.
A picture is worth a thousand words: http://www.copestake.org/images/excel.png
Is there a simple way to fill the combo box (using the form initialize I assume) with the existing categories?

My worksheet looks like this: column A - ID, B - Group #, C - data. When data has been entered for all the IDs in a group I would like a message box to appear stating end of group #.
I have previously used an Excel file - created by someone else - which had pre-entered data. It was set up in such a way that if I typed a person's ID number into a cell, their name popped into the following cell. I know that the names and IDs were pre-entered somewhere else - in another sheet? In a file linked some other way?
What is this called? How do I do it? I want to end up with a file where I can type a department code into one column and have the department NAME pop up in the following column. I am mostly doing this as a time- saving measure when completing long lists of supplies being distributed to different departments (long story.) If anyone can even tell me what this is called, so I can look it up correctly, that would be... sublime.
I have a userform and on it is a combo box with the weeks in each month in it. A user has to select a week to enter figures for and then enter the figures into text boxes on the same form. When the click submit (command button), based on what week they've already selected, my code will put the figures into the spreadsheet in the appropriate place.
Sub december1() Worksheets("Dec").Activate If Figures1.TextBox1.Value >= "1" Then Range("c16") = Figures1.TextBox1.Value If Figures1.TextBox2.Value >= "1" Then Range("c17") = Val(Figures1.TextBox2.Value) / 100# If Figures1.TextBox3.Value >= "1" Then Range("c18") = Figures1.TextBox3.Value If Figures1.TextBox4.Value >= "1" Then Range("c22") = Figures1.TextBox4.Value If Figures1.TextBox5.Value >= "1" Then Range("c23") = Figures1.TextBox5.Value If Figures1.TextBox6.Value >= "1" Then Range("c28") = Figures1.TextBox6.Value If Figures1.TextBox7.Value >= "1" Then Range("c29") = Val(Figures1.TextBox7.Value) / 100#...........................
I have two worksheets. One that contains material pricing and another that has misc data, formulas, etc. I have 100 rows of data with 2 columns. Column A I have numerical values. Column B I have a formula =(A1/36.4)*sheet1!C7. I try to drag down the formula but the value for sheet1!c7 changes as I go down (sheet1!c8 then sheet1!c9 and so on). How can I drag down the formula and have the SINGLE value from worksheet 1 carry to all rows?
Starting to struggle a bit here. Trying to create a user form, with help from this website I was able to create 2 dropdown lists based on data validation and information from another sheet in the same workbook. I have one cell B7 that uses data validation and sheet "Eq List" to create a drop down list of departments that the user can select from. Once B7 is filled in, it creates the 2nd dropdown list in B9 so the user can pick "Equip Desc".
Where I am trying to fill B11 which should automatically give me back the Mach ID that is related to B7 & B9. Am I going about this the right way? I have ttached a sample file to make it easier to understand.
I'd be very grateful if s.o. help me find solution for the following task:
I want to fill certain worksheet with data from external .tsv files. The .tsv files are with a almost a common name (something_date.tsv), located in folders for each month.
What I'm usually doing and want to automate:
- I'm opening the first .tsv file from the monthly folder;
- Creating AutoFilter on the first row;
- Selecting a custom criteria from the AutoFilter;
- Copying the cells matching this AutoFilter criteria;
- Pasting in a predefined worksheet (with AutoFilter on first row);
*All of the copied cells are not being altered in the predefined worksheet, i.e. the first rows of the .tsv file and the worksheet are the same.
- Doing exactly the same with the next file in the monthly folder (but pasting below the already copied cells in the workbook).
I have an excel sheet with 2 tabs. 1st tab provides the data for downtime of a manufacturing line. The last column (shift) is blank and needs to be filled based in shift schedule in tab2
On the 2nd tab I have the shift schedule, which tell which shift is working on particular days
Month Date 7:00am- 7:00 pm 7:00pm - 7.00am
Feb 1 Shift A Shift C
[Code] ........
Is it possible to write a macros that will look at the Date and time from tab 1 and assign the correct shift number in the shift column. For example the 1st row of tab 1 reads (Month=Feb, Date = 3:55:59 AM) so according to shift schedule it would fill C shift.
I have lots of data and to assign every event to shift # manually is not possible. So i wanted to know if there is a macros i can use to make life easier and learn at the same time
I've set myself a project to try and automate some repetitive filling in of word documents and would like a point in the right direction. I've done some research on the MSDN and some sites on the web. The way I was thinking of doing it would be,
make a template with either Fields or Bookmarks (which would be best?) for each piece of data on the paper work.Put the repeated data into an excel sheet (with a button for the macro to be assigned to).
write some VB script that will, define and "label" the data in the XL sheetopen the word templateenter the data into each Field/BookmarkSave as a new file in a "New" folder (name of file and folder taken from the Data)open the next template and repeat.
would this be the best way of approaching this problem?Whats the best way of defining points in a word template, Fields, Bookmarks?what objects would I need to use to rename the folder?
The below formula is in Col F6, how do i get this formula to adjust to data range without manually filling down, my data changes everyday therefore i need the formula to auto fill according to data range.
I have a worksheet that contains data on products including prices and I want to use that worksheet to fill out an invoice for every sale of those products. I know how to make the list/table dynamic and varify the data to "list", then use VLOOKUP to get the price to appear, but what I'd like to know is how to overcome the problem that will arise when a product's price has to change. Eg. if on 1/1/10 the price of product A rises from £15 to £20, how do I ensure that 2009 invoices do not change when I update/edit the price, but that the current price goes up? So far, the only thing I can think of doing is to create another product, but there are several other bits of data about each product on the worksheet which will not change (weight, height, width, supplier etc), so I don't really want to have to duplicate the unchanging bits and also leaving the productA with the old price in the list may lead to accidentally selecting the old price. What do you think? Is there a way of maybe fixing the price to date or something?
I can't seem to find the answer to this question. I have a sorted list of data 3 cells wide, 120 cells long. I wish to have this data put into a scroll bar so I may scroll the data, select, and it will output to a chosen cell.
I assume the ScrollBar control is the choice but since I have no experience with any controls, I am at a loss. I have thus far only managed to insert the scrollbar, click on the properties and then I'm ?.
1. How do I specify the range of cells to display?
2. How do I specify an output cell after selecting from the list?
In column A I have a list of text. There are blank lines in between the cell that actually contain text. What I am trying to accomplish is create a validation list that will give me only the cells with text in them and ignore the blanks. For example in column A1:A7 I have the following text:
John Mike
Tony
Jake
My validation list will return those names but will also give me the blanks in between the names.
I have a combo-box in a Multipage control. Now I want to get the combo-box populated with list in 2 columns from 2 different consecutive columns from the same worksheet (Product List). Now, Once the list gets populated, user will be selecting his choice from the list, which is then needs to get copied to another worksheet (Order Placed). Both worksheets exist in the same or one spreadsheet.
I am trying to make it work with the following code. I am able to see 2 columns but with no data getting populated. I am working in MS Excel 2007.
I want to count back the last 6 cells in column S which has data (ignoring any blank cells) and add them up.
My data is ranging betwen S62:S143 (with S144 being the cell that I want to show the total for the last 6 cells with data). I have column headings and various other bits of data from S1:S61 that I want to exclude completely but need to keep for historical purposes.
Here is an example of some of the data in column S:
I have tried adding a negative and positive number on the end of the COUNTA formula but all it does is count all the cells within that given heigh range, not a specific number of cells with data.
I don't specifically need to use SUM. As long as I get a total.
I'm trying to do a Data Validation list where there is a range from A1:A10 named List, but there are only values in A1:A5.
For the drop down menu, I've done the Data Validation and List, and made it =List. The problem with that is, I only want the drop down to give the options if there is a value (A1:A5 not all of A1:A10). I thought that the Ignore blanks feature would do that, but it does absolutely nothing.
I have a table populated with values for given dates. Some days there is no data. I would like a separate table over to the right to automatically populate with only the date and data.... (no spaces). I will attach an example problem to this Thread.
I am really amazed that I can't find a workable example for what I am trying to accomplish here... For the most part, I can read and decipher VBA code...but when it comes to constructing my own code...I am deluged with syntax errors and run-time errors...
Here, specifically, is what I am trying to do:
I have a column...(Let's say Column A)...that contains 1300 items to start with. Once an item is selected by the user, a new list is created in Column B that mirrors Column A with the "selected" items "removed"...(the cell is blank).
As each item is selected, (and "removed"), I want a third list created in Column C that lists all of the items in Column B, but skips the "blanks". ("Blanks" is in quotes to stress that these cells are NOT EMPTY. They each contain a formula).
I have created data validation list which has 3 flags (Yes, No and Blank). Normally the user will select either Yes or No from column C but i want each time there is no value in either row A or B; i want the code to automatically to select Blank. So basically every time row A or B are blank i want the corresponding row C to be selected "Blank". See attached for more details.
I have a data validation list, but i dont want the user to be able to make the cell blank. I have 5 items in the list and i wont to make sure they choose one. But the data validation allows them to enter blank.
