Finding Smallest Value In Range Close To Specified Calculated Point
Mar 8, 2012
Lets pretend that I have a boat load of automatically generated values from a different program.
There's a specific equillibrium point to a certain measurement, but this measurement involves a lot of fluctuation. To get a near accurate result, I must find the maximum value in an entire graph on the Y Axis value(Column B). Ofcourse, this is easily done using the =MAX value
Exactly 450 seconds (X Axis value(Column A)) positively and negatively from this point, something like this happens.
Problems:
A.) I must find the highest points 450 seconds negatively ( X ) to the max of the entire graph.
B.) I must find the lowest point closest to the two points we uncovered, both on the positive ( X -->) side.
C.) The fluctuation of every spike can last to about ±30 measured points in the graph. (±20 seconds) Thus, the maximum point surrounding the +/- 450 seconds (±693 x values) needs to be accurately predicted as being around 450 seconds, not 10 seconds more or less.
D.) The measurement is known to something glitch out and suddenly get a spike somewhere along the road, which will then quickly fall back down, which is a false maximum level. How can I prevent excel from taking this as the maximal point?
Remember, this needs to be fully automated into a macro later on, ergo, I cannot manually add the formulas to all the (650 different) sheets.
I have 25 days before the project gets cancelled if this doesn't make it.
I currently am working with a worksheet that has over 250,000 data points. It is a spreadsheet for a company in which different work order are organized. A given work order can have several parts (ranging anywhere from one component to 40ish) and thus the height of the cells in which each specific work order is placed differs from work order to work order. For each component, the spreadsheet tells you how many can currently be made based on the materials available. What I would like to do, for each specific work order, is go through the data and simply tell whether or not the work order can be completed (the quantity of each specific component needed is also given in the spreadsheet) and then report out exactly how many components can be made.
Ultimately, this means that a "limiting factor" analysis must be done. For instance, if the work order is asking to create plastic bottles that consist of the bottle, the cap, and the label and it asks for 3 bottles but only 2 caps are able to be made, the limiting factor would be the caps and thus only two bottles could be made and the work order could not be fully completed.
The spreadsheet is set up based on another worker here, I am just trying to come up with a way to analyze it. Cells A1:Axxxxx are the work order numbers and the size of these cells differ because they are merged to fit the number of components they have. The componenets available are then ranged C1:Cxxxxx etc and the quantity needed are also listed in a similar fashion. What sort of structure could I use.
Find smallest numbers in the range ignoring zeros. I want it returned as value "1", all others - as value "0". Example: range A1:J1 contains - 5,0,7,3,6,5,8,0,9,3 desirable result in the range A2:J2 - 0,0,0,1,0,0,0,0,0,1
In column A, I have a list of names. In column B, I have a list of values. I want column C to show me which name has the smallest value from column B. In other words, if there are 5 names, I want ONE name to give me a value of 10 (for the smallest value), and the rest of the names I want to show zero.
I also have in column D another list of values. In column E, I want to show first, second and third place amongst the list of values from column D. The rest of the names I want to show zero.
I have been using the SMALL function to find 10 smallest values in a list, however, some of the values are the same, is there a way of only having the 10 smallest unique values within a list?
I am using the following code to Open a presentation, and run a macro. Everything works fine, but I would like it also to Save the presentation and Close it.
I am looking for a formula that will output the highest and lowest value in a range. Column A contains a range of numbers, some of which repeat and in column B i'd like to extract ONE instance of the highest and lowest value in Column A, preferable the last instance.
See example below and in column B the desired output.
I am having some data running into 60 (C:BJ) columns and 200 rows. It is the record of dates query raised and answered with refernce to query number in the A coulmn. I have zero value as entry for the unused cells in this range due to some constraints. I need to find the smallest and the largest non-zero date in this range for analysis purpose. I plan to use the difference between these 2 dates to calculate turn around time for a query.
Problem is to find the smallest and the largest non zero date within range C6:BJ6 which would be used as input in the Networkdays formula.
I am trying to determine how many times a value occurs in each quartile in a data set, with the range of my quartiles changing for each row.
Above is a simplified sample of the data I am working with. What I would like to do is calculate the length of a quartile for each row, then determine whether "Red" is in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th quartile
Right now I have two output tables. The first is a "Quartile" table, which for each row counts the number of values entered, divides by four, multiplies by the appropriate quartile and rounds down. For this I use the function
=rounddown(counta(range)/4*(quartile)) For Q1 in this dataset, that is =rounddown(counta($B2:$I2)/4*(1))
Then I have a table which calculates whether "Red" occurs in each quartile, with references to the cell values in my quartile table. My formula for Q1 here is
Where Q1 equals my rounddown formula noted above, returning "1" in this case. For subsequent quartiles, I change my reference in the Match formula to start with the previous quartile +1, and end with the current quartile.
I am using the following array equation to return the value in column 1 for the smallest 5 numbers. It works for small 1 and 3 but i get a #NUM! for 2 , 4 , and 5. The smallest 5 numbers are:
I have a pivot table as shown below which is pretty straight forward however I am trying to create a macro that will automatically change the point name to match the point name in column E then copy that resulting dispaly to another sheet then pick the next point name in line and do the same thing and repeat for 50 rows, so my end result will be 50 pivot tables ready for printing. I can do this manually but I am trying to make it automatic...BTW the point names in column E change everyday but the pivot table supports the name changes.
Option Explicit Sub PointName() Dim Ws As Worksheet Dim Rng As Range, Cel As Range
Set Ws = ActiveSheet Set Rng = Range(Cells(2, 7), Cells(Rows.Count, 7).End(xlUp))
For Each Cel In Rng Ws.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("Point Name").CurrentPage = Cel & " "
Ws.Columns("A:B").Copy Sheets.Add With ActiveSheet .Paste .Name = Trim(Cel) .Range("A1").Select End With Next Ws.Activate End Sub
I turned it off for a while and when I turned it back on I am getting an error Unable to set the _Default property of the PivotItem class
Debugger is highlighting
Ws.PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("Point Name").CurrentPage = Cel & " "
First, a range of depths with varying confidence levels.
ID From depth to depth Confidence
PZ1 0 5 High
[Code] ..........
Second, point data where I would like to return values from within the range in the first data set. I would like the confidence column of the second data set to feed from the first data set, if the point depth data is within the depth range for a borehole with the same ID. Battled with all sorts of IF, AND and LOOKUP forumlas with no luck.
I need to be able to send my selected range of cells (to include: the spreadsheet background, colored cells and all values contained) to Power Point for a daily product. I found this great VBA online and would like to use it but the problem is I keep getting funny results. It doesn't matter what cells I select I keep getting a extra margin on the left side and top of the pasted product in power point. I then have to crop the results... I have looked at the macro (from my noodie eyes) and cannot seem to find a way to adjust this added on margin.
I'm trying to write a bit of code that will allow me to clear some sheets. One of the sheets has formula for x number of rows, and these need to be left intact. Under these forumla there is an area where data is pasted, and this needs to be cleared becfore starting the process.
Colum A is blank, apart from cell A1 (the column heading) and another cell (variable row) with the value 'Paste here'. I've used this variable cell in other macros on the sheet as a marker, so need this to stay. I was going to use this code below, but I don't know how to tell it to select from the current active cell to the bottom of the spreadsheet.
Range Macro - looking to create a simple macro to highlight a colum range from any location in column A that the cursor has landed on to the fixed location "A3". Example: If I am on A34, then the macro would highlight A34:A3. I can then edit the format in that range. Idealy, I could search on Column A first for a given text, then run the above macro to highlight every cell between that given text and "A3".
I need help in simulating the functionality of the OFFSET function with some of standard Excel functions which are shown at this webpage (I will be using this converter to generate the webpage from the sheet):
Spreadsheet Converter Supported Functions
I ask this because I need to create an interactive online calculator which absolutely needs to have the ability to allow the user to select the RANGE of the data to be analyzed. I included an example sheet with the offset function in the pink cell…Do you think any other standard excel function can be used to simulate its functionality?
i'm using this source to add labels to data points in charts:
Sub AttachLabelsToPoints()
'Dimension variables. Dim Counter As Integer, ChartName As String, xVals As String
' Disable screen updating while the subroutine is run. Application. ScreenUpdating = False
'Store the formula for the first series in "xVals". xVals = ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Formula
the code is from ms and works. (for some reason they also declare variable 'chartname' although it's never used, anyway). the full thing here: [url]
i actually have my source data filterable. so depending on the filters chosen, the chart updates itself. so it removes data points in the chart as more filters are used.
the problem is that the labels ignore the filters. the code above just goes down the column to grab the labels grabbing values in order, even if they have been filtered out.
a cumbersome workaround would be to copy the filtered data to another range and use that for the labels. this is neither optimal because i have lots of data or elegant.
It’s been working perfectly up until around an hour ago. However, now when I close Excel, I get compile errors.
These compile errors seem to be because Excel is trying to access controls in the workbook after it has closed. Since the workbook is closed, VBA can no longer ‘see’ the controls, and therefore it thows up errors.
I’m also getting a similar error on a Worksheets("DataExplorer").unprotect line, which seems to be because the worksheet isn’t there after closing.
These errors only occur when I close the whole excel application using the big cross in the top right. If I just close the workbook (using the smaller cross just below the big cross in the top right of excel), it doesn’t throw up these errors.
Just to clarify: all of the code runs perfectly when Excel is open. The errors are being thrown up for lines of code which run without problem until Excel is closed.
I do have the below code to safe a file and close it:
Sub Save_Close() ' ' Save_Close Macro ' ' ActiveWorkbook.Save Application.Quit End Sub
I would like to do additionally something else. I need a macro to do the above, but it should first check if cells A2:C9 do contain text. The text could be anything.
If there is text in ALL the cells, then the macro should save and close the file. If there is text missing in at least one of the cells, a message box should appear saying 'Please fill out all cells'.
I have two sheets of data and two tables (1=finial 2=data comparison) I am trying to figure out some kind of formula or vba that can easily tell me that the location point in table one data comparison matches the location in table two. The VPMDFS (location footage) in table two or NDE data can be a range, say vpmdfs.NDE + or - 3 ft. so the ILI or source record should fall in between this range. Once the match has been made I need to copy and paste that record onto sheet one all in the same row. I have been scratching my head and researching for weeks and cannot come up with a simple solution. My problem with all the scenarios that I've tried is the formulas what the data in the data comparison sheet to already be in the same row. Please reference my attached work book for examples.
I want to be able to find all the 0 differences (i.e debit = credit) cut that group out of that sheet and paste it to a new sheet in the same workbook. I have the code to find the 0 difference but I don't know how to select the range that makes up that difference and cut and paste it to a new page.
In another cell, I use Data.Validation.List and use "MyList" as the source.
Now I find another range named "HisList". Is there some way to determine if "HisList" is being used as a source for some other validation somewhere in the workbook?
