I have a client list in a table in my excel sheet. I currently enter the clients in a sheet that looks similar to a form. After the clients info is in this Form I have a button with a macro to copy the client info into a table on another sheet. This works perfectly.
Now I have another form that will retrieve the customers info in a click of a button in order to make changes to the client. Ei:I now have a second phone number and I want to update that client's info. What I want to do from here is take the info in Cell B2 (clients full Name), Do a vLookup in the "Saved Clients Table" in a Range within my table range. (Range: Saved Clients and the client's full name is in $A:$A and called "Clients Full Name" and once that name is found I need to select the cell in column C and the corresponding row.
This will allow me to copy the info in my form, Paste it in Transpose to the cell that is selected. (I already have that code)
Here are screenshots of what I am trying to accomplish. [URL] .......

I am an inventory specialist for a dish network company and as such I track inventory in and out of technicians vans, both serialized and not. I've done a great deal of work updating a broken excel sheet they use so that it functions again but I didn't build it. I've learned a lot but I'm only self taught with Excel and had never even heard of VBA code until I dived into this project. It's a huge puzzle and is now my "baby".
Anyway, basically I have one sheet that has a list of all the items I need to keep track of. One section of this Sheet1 I've designed to have cells with dependent drop down lists that are Named Ranges on Sheet2. The tech can choose item A B or C in the first dropdown box and then the next cell shows only the serial numbers from the named range on Sheet2 of A B or C. (Was that english?)
Since the receiver comes out of the techs van once its used I want to figure out a way to delete the serial number that the tech has chosen without deleting the row or cell, just the value in it so that it can then have another serial number typed in. How can I do that?
Also, since I'm here, my 2nd drop down list seems to always start scrolled down and I have to scroll up to see my serial numbers. Why is that? The receiver list starts at the top but the dependent one doesn't...

Here is what Im trying to do: I have a VERY large excel file that has groups of 4 cells, a blank, then another 4, repeating. Kinda like the following:
ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3
UID = example
ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3
ExampleCell1
ExampleCell2
ExampleCell3
UID = example
That pattern continues for about 3000 lines. However, if you noticed, some of the "groups" dont have the 4th line "UID = example".
Here is what Im trying to do. I want excel to search for the cells with "UID" and DELETE it plus the 3 rows above. So that only the "groups" without the UID remain.
Now Im thinking this may be impossible, but I've seen some crazy things done with excel macros and was really hoping someone can help me out. Otherwise Im doing this manually for 3000+ lines of text.

I've got a problem which I'd like to do without using VBA if possible. I have 2 rows, one with text and one with numbers. I need to go through all the text, find the text that matches and add the number in that row.
That's very poorly explained so I've given an example below:
text 1 20
text 1 10
text 2 10
text 1 20
text 2 10
I need the formula to do this:
text 1 50
text 2 20

I have the following dataset:
[Date] [Category] [Currency] [ExchangeRate] [.....], etc.
1-3-09 A USD 0,8
1-6-09 A EUR 1
1-7-09 A USD 0,7
1-8-09 B USD 0,9
1-9-09 B USD <formula>
I'd like to have the value of <formula> looked up in older records. Currency and category should match and it should pick the exchange rate with the maximum date.
Which formula and what syntax should I use to have this done?
I use Excel 2007.

I have 2 sheets. On one sheet, this column J2:J490 contains text that either says "TRUE" or "FALSE" and another column AJ2:AJ490, text that says "FEES". (many of the other cells in this column say something else). I need a formula that can find the matching text TRUE/FEE or FALSE/FEE in these columns, count them, and give me the product.

in VBA, I would like to do the following:
Delete the entire row where any cell in that row is equal to cell "b15" in worksheet "Metal Type".
I would like it to run across all the worksheets hidden or unhidden, in the workbook, (except for worksheet "Metal Type").
If possible I would also like it to prompt the user to accept the contents of cell "b15" in worksheet "Metal Type" or enter a new string.
Also can it alert the user when "no matches were found"

Macro: Copy selected cell to another sheet next blank row
I'll just make this simple to understand.
*Again, I have first sheet, named "SUMMARY"
*On Column A, I have list of names
A1: Star
A2: Moon
A3: Sun
A4: Clouds
*these cells corresponds to the Cells of different sheets
A1: Star = E3 of Sheet 1
A2: Moon = E3 of Sheet 2
A3: Sun = E3 of Sheet 3
A4: Clouds = E3 of Sheet 4
this is what I should get:
1. I select the cell A1 as an active cell
2. press the button (with the macro on it)
3. I will automatically go to the sheet where "Star" is located

I have a report that comes in a txt file. After importing into excel i am left with a bunch of garbage that i dont need. This report is anywhere from 5-15 pages depending on how much product was made that shift. I only need the information off of the 1st page. My question is how can i Find the first occurance of specific text (Site) (will be in column A) and have it select that row and all rows below and delete them.
My biggest issue is the first page can be anywhere from 40-60 rows so I need to find the text (Site) and delete everything below it, which could be anywhere from 500-1500 rows.

I have two work sheets I'm using. Sheet1!A column contains a list of customer names like "Smith, John".
Sheet2!A contains the same list of name with additional information found in the row. For example, you will find "Smith, John" in Sheet2!A3 and John's phone number in Sheet2!B3
In Sheet1!B it to find the associated telephone number based on matching criteria from Sheet1!A and Sheet2!A
For example, Sheet2 has the following data.
[Code] ....
On Sheet1 I have the following names. You'll notice some of the names repeat.
[Code] ......
In column Sheet1!B I would like it to scan column A from sheet2 and display the data show in column B. So it would look like this-
[Code] ....
You'll notice some names repeat but it always displays the correct number from Sheet2.

I am trying to create a macro that will delete everything below a certain word.
The code I tried to use is the following. This produced an error:
If Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(180, 1)). Find(" Interest Expense").Row = 0 Then
iStart = Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(180, 1)).Find(" NET INCOME").Row + 1
Else
iStart = Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(180, 1)).Find(" Interest Expense").Row + 1
End If
Rows(iStart & ":" & FinalRow).Delete shift:=xlUp

I am trying to move through the worksheets and delete all columns with "Accession" in contained in them. I have to do this with an external macro as the spreadsheet with the data is created from another program. I tried this and get an 'Object or With block variable not set' error and the debug highlights the Cells. Find line of the code.
Also, the number of columns could be variable within the spreadsheet as it is compiled by the other program.
Sub DelAccessionNum()
Dim Wrkst As Worksheet
For Each Wrkst In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
Cells.Find(What:="Accession", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:= _
xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, MatchCase:=False _
, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
On Error Goto Completed:
Selection.EntireColumn.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
Completed:
Next
End Sub

I have a large workbook, with multiple sheets. I would like to be able to select a name from a drop down menu, and have the cell color change for all entries of that name in my other sheets. I can do it manually, but it would be much cleaner and easier to have Excel do it for me. I have looked at other answers here on this forum and know that if it can be done,

Via conditional formatting, I am searching to change the color of a specific word in a cell (not the color of everything in the cell, but only that specific word - and the word repeats in the cell). A function such as =isnumber(search("NOK";A1)) colors all the cell values, which I do not want to do. How i can perform this task?

I have a column of data with letters in each cell, no numerical, only alpha. Now, some of those cells contain the letters "adj sub" as part of the text string in each cell. "Adj sub" is always at the beginning of the text string. As an example, a cell will look like this - "adj sub mhm". I want to delete rows whose cell description does not contain "adj sub" as part of the text in the cell.

My code is always failing on the findnext method. I'm thinking that the findnext method fails because it loses it's cell reference when the row gets deleted.

I have a cell (A1) that contains text.
That text will match a single value in a reference list (i.e. range of cells e.g. Z1:Z26).
When the match occurs (e.g. A1 = Z16), I want the format of the reference cell (fill color, text color) to apply to the cell of interest (A1).
The reference cells are manually formatted.
I know that I could create a long list of conditional format formulas instead of using the reference, but it seems that there must be some way to tell excel: if the cell value contents are equivalent, the formatting should be as well.

programming 2 macros in a bank reconciliation sheet I am trying to create.
Basically the data consists of two sets: the ledger side and bank side. Both sides consists of multiple columns that include date, description and amount.
The following two situations can occur and which need to be covered with a macro.
Many to one matching
When we make payments to say 100 different suppliers at once, the ledger side will show 100 lines with the different amounts. However on the bank side it will only show one line with a total amount for the transaction. As the description on the ledger side is the same for all transactions done at the same time, it should be possible to have a macro add these lines and compare the total with entries on the bank side. Once a matching amount has been found, the macro should place an ‘x’ next to all entries on the ledger and bank side, in order to show that these transactions have been reconciled.
Partial cell matching
In this case we are only dealing with one line on both the ledger and bank side. The issue is that the description does not always perfectly match with one another. The ledger side might say ‘Brown Corp.’ and the bank side might say ‘Brown Corporation’. I want to come up with a macro that can recognize this partial match and still reconcile the lines by placing a ‘x’ to both the ledger and bank entry. The match however should be done with a combination of description, date and amount as several different bookings might be done for the same supplier in the same month.

Situation: I would like to compare the information between two worksheets and delete the rows that contain the same data in multiple columns, on a row by row comparison.
IE: I have two worksheets, each have identical row headers, with 5 columns each.
Company Load Date Load Time Load Description Amount ?Report?
Store#44 5/14/2009 11:55:41 AM MMBAYO $40.00 WS1
Store#44 5/14/2009 02:34:21 AM SLATOUR $20.00 WS1
Store#45 5/14/2009 01:55:41 AM GCHANDLER $100.00 WS1
Store#46 5/14/2009 11:55:41 AM MMBAYO $40.00 WS1
If column A(Company), B(Load Date), and E(Amount) for record 35 in worksheet one, match the same columns for a record in worksheet two, both records are deleted/highlighted/marked with an x in an additional column/anything.
Alternately, I can combine the data in both worksheets into one large worksheet, if that would make the solution easier. And or adding a column that idenifies which record came from which report.
Basically I have two similar reports; each contain a few rows of transactions that the other does not, I need to separate the matching transactions from the unique transactions, in order to balance the two.
I have tried using the Remove Duplicates function but it saves one of the matching records (they should add an opiton to delete matching records aswell keeping only truly unique records), I dont understand how to work Conditional Formatting to get it to do what I want, I dont know macros, or vlookups.
