I have a spreadsheet with a single worksheet. This worksheet contains 1200+ rows of equipment. Each row of equipment is made up of 4 columns: the equipment name, then the department (made up of sections), section (made up of teams) and team (a few workers) responsible for maintaining it.
I have been given the task of making it easy for the departments, sections and teams to identify which pieces of equipment are theirs. I have been specifically told to add a new worksheet to the spreadsheet that contains 3 drop-down menus; you guessed it, department, section and team. The idea is that someone chooses the department, section and team that they work for, then click worksheet 2 and their equipment has been filtered for them. (Some teams come under more than one section or department, depending on the task so I do need all three drop down lists). What I can't do is get a the drop down lists in worksheet 1 to filter the data in worksheet 2.
I have a table that uses vlookup on its bottom row to pull data on a person that the user selects from a drop down list. I am trying to get it so after that a second list is produced in dropdown form that allows the user to select the data pulled about the person.
The data pulled on the person is very dynamic and dependent on other stuff the person has selected. For example the third value on tom could be anything from 1, 5, or "". I am not sure if this is why "Ignore Blanks" isn't working.
It is possible by the way i have everything set up for me to make any result I do not want to show up to display as 0 or any other value besides 1/2/5/7. Is there a way filter out the zeros so my drop down isn't riddled with blanks?
I have a created a filter in my workbook. Text for the entire spreadsheet is set to Arial | 12 pt. Font. However, when I select any one drop down list the text therein is shown in a font size that is too small. How can I change the font size to make it more readable?
I have a workbook that lists a number of customers and the products that they use. I am trying to create a lookup that will follow the following process;
1 - User enters (via dropdown selection) Customer Id
2 - User enters (via filtered dropdown based on the 1st selection) Product
3 - User enters (via filtered dropdown based on the 1st and 2nd selections) Pack Size
4 - Product Id autofills itself.
My problem is twofold, firstly I don't know how to perform the "filters" in stages 2 and 3, and secondly I want to remove duplications from all lists at the appropriate times.
I have made a pivot table and I dlike to identify with a macro the documents with net value over 1000. Then extract these values next to the respective sales documents in an are near the pivot table somewhere. The fields are called Document and Sum of Net value. Of course the pivot is very variable one time it has 3000 records and another 5000.
I have created a drop down menu wseveral items for the first time. The drop down is located on several worksheets. What I'm trying to do is find out if there is a way to do 2 things.
A) capture a total (numerical value) of the number of items selected from the list on each worksheet. ex. if on worksheet #3 15 cells contain data from the drop down cell A1 on worksheet #1 would = 15.
&
B) capture a total (numerical value) of the number of times a specific item was selected from several worksheets. ex. if ABC was selected from the drop down menu 8 times on worksheet #2 & 6 times on worksheet #3, cell A2 on worksheet #1 would = 14.
I have created two workbooks, one which is a master price list (MasterPriceList.xls) and another which is a pricing sheet template that will be used to calculate many different products (Pricing.xls)
I have used a VLOOKUP across the workbooks (thanks to those who helped me with that) but I cannot get a drop list to work across two worksheets. When I enter the source in the "refers to" box, I get a notice saying that you can't use data validation across two workbooks. However, this was the same error message I got when I was incorrectly inserting the reference source for the VLOOKUP function, so I don't believe it Also, there are several tutorials on the web that say this can be done. However, none of them seem to work for me.
I cannot open the Data Validation box and get to the other open worksheet, so I can highlight the area I want, with the range I want to drop down. Until I close the data validation box, I cannot get out of that sheet. I have used cell ranges as well as named ranges.
When I type in a name, I get only the text I entered in the source reference box appearing on the sheet, i.e., the drop down box will only show "=C:Documents And SettingsAllenMy Documents, etc" it doesn't seem to recognize it as a source.
I have a workbook with 20 worksheets. All tabs are identical in format and layout. On B3, I have a drop down list (this may be irrelevant, but it's to select one month of the year) using simple data validation. Now, I initially had a formula in B3 equal to B3 of the first sheet, so that if I changed the month in the first sheet it will change on all sheets, it will do it the first time without touching the drop down lists on the subsequent sheets.
However, if I changed the date on any other sheet other than the first sheet, it will erase my formula and replace with the value I selected from the drop down list.
Can you guys please help me to device a way (code or formula; open to anything) where if I select, say September, on ANY sheet, it will change all the others to that selection (September) as well?
PS: B3 is actually a merged set of cell merging cells B3:D3. I know this is important because code and merged cell don't really mix.
Macro to filter (extract) data into different worksheets based on Status on Column G in a new workbook. The new workbook can be saved in the same folder where the existing one is saved.
I have attached the Rawdata file and the sample file for reference..
I'm trying to build is a master Excel sheet for a company-wide budget tracker, where our supply person enters in information on individual orders. Those orders would be broken down in separate worksheets based upon department.
So, let's say you have three departments. Each department has an identifier code (Human Resources would have HR, Operations would have OP, and Research & Development would have RD.) Each order number is prefixed with the department's code, then the other columns deal with dates ordered and received, cost of the order, and any notes on the order.
What I'd like to be able to do is to have each order be automatically filtered out to secondary worksheets, based upon which department the order belonged to.
I have seen a macro that allowed one to push a button and break data out like that, but the problem is that it created new worksheets each time, and I want the department worksheets to stay the same (since each of those can expect to have starting budget figures updated by the supply officer.)
I want to put a drop down list in Cell D3 with the list of names from column B. There are 14 different names, but when i try and create the list it gives everyname from Column B.
Also once the drop down list works i would like the table to be populated with the managers supplier, so if Dan was chosen in D5, Suppliers 1 to 9 would appear below D3.
I was wondering if there is a simple way of deleting past entries from a drop down list for a pivot table. I have tested my spreadsheet and now want to create a 'blank canvas' for users.
I am trying to write a worksheet_selectionchange macro in which the change is initiated only when certain cells are changed (B6:B9 and X9). I do not want the change to be initiated when any other cells on the worksheet change. B6:B9 and X9 are drop down boxes and the values within the drop-down boxes is variable.
I have a couple of drop down lists of data created from lists as well as fields next to it.
What I want it to do is take that data, which is name, start time, end time, days worked, queue (or work type), and fill the table next to it which is just a 30 minute by 30 minute schedule sheet with days of week 1 and week 2 on top.
I figure it would be easier to have a GO button to do this.
I will attach an example of what I mean, but please, if you guys find that there is an easier way to do this, just let me know, I feel this might involve some code/macros instead of excel functions
I'm working on making a spreadsheet that allows me to select an item type from a dropdown list (through validation) and then would copy in a range of values from another worksheet based on my dropdown selection.
The set-up: I am primarily concerned with two sheets in my workbook, BiS and Weights. I have a database of items and their associated values listed in Weights. I have already managed to get dropdown lists of my specific item types using named lists and have put that in the BiS worksheet.
What I would like to do is have the values in the Weights worksheet copied over in the same order and number of cells based on what item I select from the dropdown list.
i have a pivot table that shows the customer names. when i select the customer drop down box i can all the customer i want to see. but in the table itself there are some customer not showing. this is the first time this has happened
I am somewhat of a novice with Pivot Tables. One problem I am having that no one seems able to help me out with is that when I update and refresh my pivot table, it seems like it has a muscle memory with the drop down choice boxes.
For example: Lets say I have three customers that I have labeled 01 Target, 02 Walmart and 03 Bed Bath and Beyond. If I want to change 01 Target to 02 Target and 02 Walmart to 01 Walmart, it works in the pivot table and shows the proper data but if I try to choose the customer from a drop down box, it remembers the customers as labeled as they were before I made the changes AND the current look.
I will see: 01 Target, 02 Target, 01 Walmart and 02 Walmart in the drop down box but the data will only show up in the pivot table associated with the proper customers as they are labeled in the data source.
I'm trying to have a command button clear all filters on a pivot table (PivotTable1) and apply a new filter equal to a cell value (C4). If the cell value can't be found I want the filter to equal "No Meeting". I'm trying to recycle the code from another workbook I built a long time ago, I just can't get it to convert to this application.
Code: Dim County As IntegerDim pvtTable As PivotTable Dim pvtField As PivotField Dim pvtItem As PivotItem
I have a huge excel file. This file contains Projects, Project Manager, departments and sales for different quarters. Each department has sales and the quarter the sale was done. Now I want to create a pivot table where I can see the sales for each quarter for each project or each project manager. Attached file may elaborate the problem. ShaA1.xlsx
I am trying to filter a table of dynamic size. My table begins at P3 (first row of data, not column header) and ends somewhere at the bottom of Column AA. I am getting an error "AutoFilter Method of Range Class Failed." Why? How do I fix this?
Here is my code
VB:
If Target.Range.Address = "$B$4" Then With Sheets("Days Past Due") LastCell = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "AA").End(xlUp).Row MsgBox LastCell ActiveSheet.Range("P3:AA" & LastCell).AutoFilter Field:=17, Criteria1:="MABST" End With End If
I've created a PivotTable using VBA that contains hundreds of PivotItems, which would look bad when a PivotChart is made.
I'd like to set the PivotTable to make visible only the first X items (let's say 10). How would I do this in VBA?The macro recorder gives me the name of the PivotItem, but this varies so I'd like to use an index:
I've got an excel worksheet that contains a list of buildings and their associated control valves for water supply (subset of table attached).
I'd like the user to be able to search by building name to display its associated valves and control information. I realize I could use the list function on the worksheet, but would prefer to set it up as front page to the workbook where data is displayed in a nicer format.
I guess my question is if there any way I can set up another worksheet with a drop down box that allows the user to select a building or type in the building name and have its corresponding data display?
How to solve table with filter which needs to be copy to other tab.
Example: One tab has table with filter. Issue is with another tab which needs to be copy but issue is that another tab will further investigate with additional columns. Can be solved this issue as first tab will filter and change all rows order and another tab should read content with added columns.
I want my report title is more dynamic which is based on the pivot table's <Status Date> filter. It mean if I select the <Status Date> filter option as 6-23-2014. Then the report title will automatic update as "Statistic Report 6-23-2014" instead of I have to change the date each time I run the report.
