Find Combination Of Cell Values Equaling A Specified Total

Sep 30, 2006

I guess this would work in a similar manner as Solver, but where Solver tweaks cell values to equal a given total, I've got a set of cells and I need to find the combination that equals an amount in another cell. Is there a way to do this?

Percentage Of Total For Cells In A Range Equaling A Specific Numeric Value

Aug 4, 2009

I am trying to create a formula that shows a percentage of cells within a range that contain a particular number. This percentage is based on another cell, which is the total number of all audits. Each audit has rating columns, with a numeric value indicating it's rating. I need to count those cells within the range that equal the numeric value assigned to the rating, and then divide that total by the total number of audits to obtain a percentage of calls with each particular rating in each category.

Here is an example of what I'm trying to accomplish:

A1 = 2 (Total audits)
B1 = 07/31/2009 (Date of first audit)
C1 = 3 (Rating of first category)
D1 = 1 (Rating of second category)
E1 = 2 (Rating of third category)
F1 = 08/03/2009 (Date of second audit)
G1 = 0 (Rating of first category)
H1 = 2 (Rating of second category)
I1 = 2 (Rating of third category)

The percentage of audits within the first category that have a rating of 3 would be 50%.
The percentage of audits within the second category that have a rating of 3 would be 0%.
The percentage of audits within the third category that have a rating of 2 would be 100%.

Text Output Based On Combination Of Cell Values?

Mar 9, 2014

I'm tying myself in knots when trying to combine logical formulas to return a text value based on multiple cell values.

Cell A1 can equal 1-10, and cell B1 can also contain the values 1-10.

I want C1 to display the text "YC" if B1 value is equal to 9 or 10. I want C1 to display the text "SC" if B1 value is 5-8, and A1 value is 4-10. Any other combination of values should return a blank cell.

I tried splitting this into two components before trying to make it fit into a single equation, and i can achieve the first condition of display "YC" =IF(AND(A1>=9,A1

Using Excel To Determine Combination Of Numbers That Equal Set Total?

Jan 30, 2009

Is there anyway to use Excel to determine which of a set of numbers equals a total? I encounter this issue when dealing with accounts receivable. We receive payments with no details on what is being paid. I have a list of open items and a total being paid. I would like to have Excel determine which combination of invoices can be added together to match the payment.

Conditional Summing: Find Those Combinations Of Variable Values Which Generate Highest Total Gain

Jun 17, 2008

The aim is to find those combinations of variable values which generate highest total gain. I attached the spreadsheet which shows the variables (A through K) and a Gain column. I created 5 additional tabs which show all possible 2,3,4 and 5-member combinations of the variables. These tabs are like coordinates of which variable combinations should be examined. As an example I used the first combination from the second tab = A and B. If you look at these two columns on the EXAMPLE CALCULATION tab you will see 7,7 in the Number combination which is the first number pair for these two variables. The headings of the red and the yellow columns calculate the total count for this number pair and the total gain. These were recorded on a separate EXAMPLE RESULTS tab along with some other pairs which appear afterwards (these were recorded only from the first 39 rows of the AB data). I need a macro which will cycle through each variable pair (only using the combinations from the tab 2 for now, annd later from 3,4 and 5 tabs) collecting statistics for each unique number combination it encounters (printing to a separate sheet one after one), such as shown on the EXAMPLE RESULTS.

To Find A Total Number Of Rows To A Blank Cell

Mar 14, 2007

I need to find the total number of rows down to the next blank cell (and then perform a function based on that number).

I'm using:

CountA(A1,xlDown)
Situation: I have a raw data import - each record is anywhere from 2 to 9 rows, and I need to move each row in that group into a column.

I would like to use something like:

totalRows = Application.WorksheetFunctions.CountA(Range("A1, xlDown"))
If totalRows = 4 Then
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Range("A1").Select
Selection.Cut
ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 1).Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
etc.

Find Number Combination In A Group Of Cells

Oct 28, 2011

I'm looking for another excel game changer (for the work I do anyway).

I have a dollar amount, and I want to know if any combination of dollar amounts in a particular range of cells will equal that dollar amount. Is this possible in Excel?

Example: I have 20 different dollar amounts in a column. I want to know what combination of those 20 different dollar amounts, if any, will equal $257.97. The dollar amount I'm looking for and the numbers in the range will change with each use. I'm hoping for a formula, but VBA will work too as I could just make a template and copy / paste the numbers in.

Find And Replace A Specific Letter/number Combination

Jul 9, 2008

I have a column of references I wish to standardize. Contained within a general text description there is also an order-specific reference number, which is not relevant for my purposes. I wish to find all of these numbers and replace them with nothing (i.e. retain the rest of the description).

The reference numbers are always in the format "P#####/##". Unfortunately these references are in the middle of the text field, not at the start or end, so I can't use a LEFT or RIGHT formula to delete them.

Once these reference numbers have been deleted I will then be able to filter for unique records only. When I do this at the moment the filtering has no effect due to these specific reference numbers.

Assign Values To Letters And Count Total In A Cell

Feb 21, 2012

Is it possible to assign values to letters (eg. a=1, b=2, c=3... z=26) and then count the total sum of those letters in a cell

Example
A1= car
car is c=3 + a=1 + r=18 which would make the total to be shown in A2 3+1+18=22

With this code i would like to create a subtotal of all letters per row and a batch total of the column with subtotal.

Find Total Hours By Searching Entire Rows Below Selected Cell Versus Cells In A Column

May 19, 2014

I'm using the following code to delete select rows one at a time. I need the last row in the range to remain therefore I prevented the user from deleting the row one up from the row that contains "Total Hours" (which is always in Column B). The code works great as long at the user clicks into a cell in column B. If the user clicks into a cell in column A, C, D, E, F, G, H, or I then the code allows the user to delete the last row.

I believe I need to search entire rows to determine if the row contains "Total Hours" .

How To Generate All Combinations Of Ten Values List / Picking In 4 Each Combination

Oct 20, 2013

I have a list in excel with ten values, but I need to get all combinations possible, picking 4 of 10 each combination. This must be as a combination and no permutation or variations either, I mean, values can't be repeated in a single combination.

Find Same Values In Different And Unequal Cell Ranges And Refer To Values

Jul 2, 2009

I have data similar as shown in the following:

A1A11
B2AA1122
C3B22
D4C33
D44

The idea is to add compare the cells of the first column with the third column. Where same letters/words exist, the corresponding value of the first column should be added to the second column (where no letter exists equally, the space remains empty), so it will look like this

A111
AA1122
B222
C333
D444

the third column always will have at least the same letters as the first column, but new letters/entries can occur.

Formula Equaling Zero Is Not Equal To 0

Dec 14, 2009

I have a simple formula which subtracts one cell from another. I then have an if and statement which checks if that cell is equal to zero. If so, continue processing.

The problem is that the formula always reads the cell as not equal to zero although the result of the formula contained in the cell does result in zero.

Sum Of Columns Not Equaling Formula

Jan 2, 2012

I'm using excel to keep track of information at work and have formulas set to figure out totals weekly. The problem comes about when I sum up each column, why doesn't the column totals use the same formula as the top.

Example would be

2 X 5 = 10
3 X 8 = 24
4 X 5 = 20
6 X 5 = 30

15 23 84 sum total of all columns

15 X 23 = 345 why do I come up with 345 instead of 84 when using the same formula as above

Calculate Sum Between 2 Dates And Equaling 3rd Value

Feb 26, 2008

I have a countif formula that calculates the number of entries between 2 dates. However i now need to also count how many of these match a 3rd value.
So i will need to work out how many "are greater than or equal to B2" "less than or equal to C2" and "equalling D2"

what i have already
=(-COUNT('Current Work'!AE8:AE2000)+COUNTIF('Current Work'!AE8:AE2000,">="&B2)+COUNTIF('Current Work'!AE8:AE2000,"<="&C2))

Multiply Every Nth Cell By Another Column Whith Merged Cells, THEN Find Column Total

Aug 6, 2009

Please see the attached sheet. I have columns B through a lot (B through O in my oversimplified example). In every 7th row in each of these columns there is either a 1 or a blank/zero. I need to multiply that 7th number by the Quantity in column A, to achieve a total (ie the sum of each result of 7th cell*quantity) for each column in the bottom row, labeled "Totals".

In the actual version of my sheet, there are far too many rows to select everything manually. I've been fiddling with combinations of COUNTIF/COUNTA and OFFSET, but I haven't come up with a way to check for the 1 in every 7th row, THEN multiply that 1 by the quantity in column A, THEN add up the results for each column. As you can see, there are 1's elsewhere in the columns that are irrelevant to this particular calculation, so something like LOOKUP would also have to look in every 7th cell and couldn't just look at the column as a whole.

If you can't provide an immediate solution, but can at least point me to a resource that would allow me to devise a way to isolate every 7th row (THAT part is the sticking point), I'll surely post the solution to my own thread with updated keywords if I need it.

Macro For Equaling The No Of Digits & Prefixing The Numbers

Jun 27, 2009

I have some numbers around 200 numbers which are not same digits i.e. if 1st number is 7 digits, 2nd number is of 10 digits.

Like this even if i have a number of 1 or 2 digits then all number should have equal digits i.e. in 200 numbers if one numbers is of 13 digits then all the numbers should be 13 digits.

To do this first i am doing this to the right align & comparison all numbers & taking the highest digit number & pre-fixing the other numbers with zeros’ so that all number are equal in number of digits. This is taking huge time.

I want to make a macro or any easy method so that all should have equal no of digits.

I want that if 200 numbers are pasted in the column E i.e. from E2 to E201 then all should be converted to equal digits number by prefixing zeros & should appear in column G from G2 to G201.

And after converting them it should be prefixed with D/ OR D/ABC:

This will be present in B2 cell i.e. this cell will be blank always. And once I have any thing in that cell that should be prefixed to the converted numbers in the column G & they should appear in Column I.

And again the numbers in column G should be prefixed with the content in B2 & should appear in column K in the Ascending order sorted.

Suppose if , I have 500 numbers then they should be converted automatically to equal digits & appear in Column G & prefixed with the contented in cell B2 should appear in Column I & sorted series in ascending order with prefixed with cell B2 in the column K.

And if I have 15 numbers only then it should do the same job easily. Here the numbers of numbers are not defined.

All this should be get done on click of the command button.

Only Allow Cell To Contain Any Combination Of 2 Arrays?

I was just wondering if it was possible to only allow cells in a worksheet to only allow values that are a combination of 2 arrays whether it be through data validation or other means. For example, if I have an array that has a b and c and a second one with 1 2 and 3, is it possible to only allow values a1 a2 a3 b1 b2 b3 c1 c2 c3?

Find 2 Cell Values On Same Row

Jul 3, 2007

I have attached an example worksheet which I think will explain better than I can but here goes.

There is a user form which forces the user to select from all the three comboboxes boxes.
The comboboxes are NOT populated from the worksheet.
The Date of Shift get today’s system date and the previous days date.
The shift pattern and shift duration are set entries.
When the update button is hit the object is to look in column "A&B" to see if a row has an existing entry which matches the user’s entry.
If an existing entry is found then it will update the cell in column "C" in that row for the matching DATE and PATTERN
If no matching entry exists it will append a new row with the user entry.

I have been trying to do this for a while trying what I know and then I found the Find matching X sample written by ozgrid.
Tried it out and found that it used the columns to populate the comboboxes and did not like using a date also I do not need a list box

So I decided to try and modify ( 2 whole days over the weekend, so I am no programmer just try as best I can) it to suit the needs outlined above.
I have reached the limits of my skill and now get "Object Variable or with block variable not set"
