Find Phrase In One Column And Apply Formula To Different Columns Same Row?
Aug 27, 2013
I am trying to come up with a macro that will find rows that contain the words �as % of Revenue� and then calculate and apply the appropriate formula to the actual and budget columns. I have attached a sample of what the source data look like.
The formula divides the category�s total expense by the revenue in row 4. For a complete macro, I would want to also subtract the budget result from the actual result and put its result in the �better (worse)� column. I need to use this on 12 or so different workbooks which is why I�m wanting a macro.
Here is my attempt to accomplish this task; however, I quickly realized it is woefully inadequate because I neither understand how to apply it to the different columns or how to find the next instance of �as % of revenue�).
VB:
Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
'
Range("B10").Select
Cells.Find(What:="as % of Revenue").Activate
Range("B20").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=R[-1]C/R10C"
Range("B21").Select
End Sub
I have taken over this spreadsheet for my work, and it is basically a statement in excel. What I want to do is find a list of invoice numbers in column B populated from a remittance, and then replace column F to say a specific thing depending on check number and date paying for that invoice. So if a check printed today I would have it replace column f to say paid 1/31/13 check # xxxxx. Currently I am searching for each invoice indivudually and then replacing with check number and date. There are about 200 invoices per month that I deal with, and it is a big waste of time!
see the attached spreadsheet including the data. In Column AA I have created a formula that looks at Column B, and pulls each unique value from that column. add to this formula, or propose a new one, that pulls unique values into column AA if at least one of the rows has an "Actual Finalization Date" in column D that is in 2014?
I have three columns. Column 1: A list of items with a very long text description in each cell Column 2: The Key phrase found within the long description in the cells of Column 1. (The key phrase is different for each cell). Column 3: Custom shortened description in text format. Column 4: Formula to return the Custom shortened description, equivalent to the item in Column 1
How do I create a formula in Column 4 so that Excel searches for the Key phrase found within the string of Column 1 and returns the custom description in Column 4?
I am trying to write a code for VBA code for find and replace, I want to find a particular phrase (i.e. 1. Value Added Processing) which is all in one cell and replace it a range of cells of other cells which is contained on a different sheet.
So basically the original 1 cell would be replaced for anywhere between 1 to 20cells. Depending upon what I type in.
Hello, below is a sample of my excel sheet. The number of rows keep changing daily and the Month and year column has to be populated automatically as and when there is a new row inserted. I tried the formula =MONTH(A:A) and I paste it on the entire column. it works for rows with data but I also get 104,000 odd blank rows added to my excel because I pasted the formula on the entire column.
way to put a simple formula in a colum that will apply to the entire column, no matter how many rows without having to physically copy it to the number of rows required?
I need to do something to my workbook, and I need to do this task:
When I insert/delete a column between E & F in sheet 1, the formula (not the value) in the column E was applied too to the new column I've inserted/deleted..
Then, when that happened to the sheet 1, It would happen too to the other sheet automatically..
So I don't need to insert/delete the row and copy the formula manually for each worksheet..
I know that I could simply solve it with grouping the sheet tab..
But I have plenty of data that needed to be inserted and applied with the formula..
I will attach the little example : insert.xlsx
And one more thing, I received this VB code from [URL] ..... for inserting the column:
VB: Private Sub Workbook_SheetBeforeRightClick(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean) Dim lngRow As Long Dim ws As Worksheet If Target.Row = 1 Then Cancel = True
[Code] .....
And this code for deleting the column:
VB: Private Sub Workbook_SheetBeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean) Dim lngRow As Long Dim ws As Worksheet If Target.Row = 1 Then Cancel = True
Let's say this is my data. It's already been sorted so that like entries are all grouped together.
Ex1 Ex1 Ex1 Ex2 Ex2
I need to make a macro that numbers my data like below.
1 Ex1
2 Ex1
3 Ex1
1 Ex2
2 Ex2
Essentially, my data is many columns and sorted on a bunch of different levels. I need a quick way to assign a rank to every row in the same group, to see at a glance which performed the best.
I need a macro to find the last cell in the column, then copy the formula to the next blank cell. Then, it goes back to the last cell (above) and paste's values. Then, go to the next column and repeat the process. I can do this but have to call each cell separatly...however, I would like to do it in a loop to simplify things. It would be great to even be able to just set the start and ending columns. Here is my current code:
Dim rng As Range, aCell As Range Set rng = Range("C8, D8, E8, F8, G8, H8, J8, K8, L8, M8, N8, O8, P8, Q8, R8, S8, T8, U8") For Each aCell In rng Selection.End(xlDown).Select Application.CutCopyMode = False
[Code] .......
It does not go to the next column, instead it stays in the same column and repeats the process.
I am trying to search for a phrase in a particular column but the excel search function is returning !Value as an error...
Both fields are text so nit sure what is wrong here.
I have a list of cities that i want to cross reference across a cloumn of notes on another sheet. So, I really want to search for the city (Sheet1 Cell A1) in Notes Sheet2 Cell A1) and I want to return it in Sheet1 Cell B1 Whether it exisits in the notes. I then want to copy this down my list of cities in Sheet1 Column a.
I want to find the equation that will add a certain phrase in one column and put a value in another column. For example, suppose I want to find out how many people in column A has a red shirt. In the column there are a variety of colors. If they have the red shirt then I want to put a yes in column B.
Another example that I've struggled with is if I want to find out if someone had a birthday between March 1 and March 31 (a certain time) in column A, and put the value of all those people in another cell?
How I can apply an IF function for four or more columns. for example: if the value is the same in four or more cells, IF function can type OK, if not something else.
what I am doing is this : =IF(H2=I2=J2=K2=L2,"OK","Not Equal") but I always receive the value"not equal" even when the all cells have the same value. The cells values are found using formula so I did copy and paste value but I received the same result.
Column A only has Some empty rows, and some rows with content.
The issue is I am having is I am trying to sort the the rows of column A in Alphabetical order, but Iwant to lock the height or merge the rows so that when I sort them I do not end up with empty spaces or them be un-aligned with Column B. This spreadsheet is too long to go and re-format every cell but here is an example:
A ----- B
John (blank) ----- this column's (blank) ----- rows are (blank) ----- merged
David (blank) ----- this column's (blank) ----- rows are (blank) ----- merged
The cells in B are already at the proper height to be alligned with the names.... but if I try to put the names in alphabetical order then nothing will be alligned.
Well we are trying to fetch some data using excel filters. But we are unable to apply filter simultaneously on two excel columns. The problem is explained in the attached sheet. If you have any query/doubt in understanding the whole problem then writ it.
My conditional formatting code works fine for one column; however, when I try to apply the conditional formatting to two columns, the code only applies to the first column listed. Additionally, I have two sets of "rules" that apply to the same column. One of the "rules" includes two columns. The other rule applies to only one column. I'm not sure if this is my issue, or whether I'm trying to apply the same code to two different columns.
I would like to create a VBA macro which would do the following:
There will be three columns A, B, and C. Each cell in each column will have a number with two places after the decimal. Each integer corresponds to a letter code. In the fourth column (D), I would like the letter codes from the corresponding three numbers in the same row to be combined in one cell as follows (if possible):
It is important that the macro only pay attention to the whole number, and ignore the numbers after the decimal. However, the numbers after the decimal must remain in the chart.
I have 2 spreadsheets, I need to collect the data onto 'figures 07' from column D on 'spreadsheet 07' by date, based on the name matching. ie cell B4 on 'figures 07' should be 166 and cell C4 should be 72. I've tried IF and LOOKUP but they don't give me the correct answer Auto Merged Post;Here is the second spreadsheet, it wouldn't let me attach both of them on my first message
Why can't I apply text functions on strings into the file? For example: can't apply "Text To Columns" delimited by space on "Status Entry Date" column.
The code below restricts users from inputting anything other than an uppercase "X" in a cell within column N. If the user types a lowercase "x", it would automatically convert it to uppercase. If any other value is entered other than "X", a message box will fire.
The code is specific to column N (column 13). However, I would like to apply this to multiple columns, such as columns 13,14,17,20 .....
I need help creating a formula to find data in one column that starts with different letters and counts them up.
For example one column would contain the words amoung others: DPDE DNPD EPRO EOTH YBRC YUND
In the other column I want to count up the amount of times a word starts with the letter D or E or Y. The count comes from another spreadsheet, which the CMRF Tool (See attachment) is pasted at the bottom of.
The Monthly case report file is the file I want to get the count from. These would come from Column O once the data is there. The count would end up in column D of the CMRF tool which is pasted at the bottom of the monthly case report file.
