I have converted a table from PDF to Excel format....
The table consists of longf columns with rows of data in each column.
Once converted to Excel format, the columns become single cells with say 100 rows in each cell.
My question is this:Can I reformat these larger cells such that each row within the long single cell gets its own single cell.
This would enable me to copy paste the data into a spreadsheet and avoid the data entry....
How do I clear the pivot table formatting? I want just the content of the pivot table, but can't figure out how to get rid of the formatting?
View 2 Replies View Relatedi can't seem to figure this one out.
I attached a file showing how i am trying to format data (the second tab).
The big issue is the counting to format. (the formatting itself is obviously easy.)
The number of columns is not always standard so i need to count for it.
the number of rows in each "room number" is also not always standard, which means i also need to count for those.
If anyone has had experience trying to do something like this i would appreciate the help.
i know it is possible because i had one that someone had given me years ago, unfortunately i lost it in a hard drive failure...also years ago.
if it isn't obvious what i am trying to do, let me know and i will try to be clearer.
I am having trouble getting some conditional formatting to apply to all cells in a column in a pivot table. Currently, the conditional formatting is only applying to the top level items in the pivot but is not applying to the lower level items. I can see why it is doing this. the range in "Applies to" is only specifying the rows that contain the top level items. I tried to change the range to D10:D647 but, it reverts back to just the top level items. How to get it to apply to everything?

I have a database of roughly 9000 rows. My first sheet is this data in a raw format (Masterdata!). Each row is a fire-rescue response call and therfore has a time stamp. The raw data uses different formats to provide the time stamp. My second sheet is my filtered data (Filtereddata!). In order to make these time stamps uniform I have a formula that looks at the Masterdata! timestamp column and if it is in a numeric format changes it to a text date and if it is a text date perserves it.
=IF(ISNUMBER(Masterdata!K:K),TEXT(Masterdata!K:K,"dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm"),Masterdata!K:K)
This gives me the "timestamp" which has both the incident start time and the date. I have =left and =right formulas breaking apart the date and the time. Therefore I have two columns on my Filtereddata! for the date of the incident and the time the call came in. What I would like to do is run some pivot tables and group incidents by month. I am unable to group them once I run the pivot table. I get a "Unable to group these items" (or something like this) message. I have assured multiple times that the date column is in DATE format. However, when I change the date to long date or short date I see no changes in the column so I am assuming there is something happening that I'm missing. The formula populating the date column on Filtereddata! is as such:
=LEFT(frfiltereddata[[#This Row],[Timecode]], FIND(" ", frfiltereddata[[#This Row],[Timecode]], 1))
I'm working in Excel 2010.
I setup a table with a column titled "Type". Each value under column "Type" defines the type of row it is: "Section", "SubSection", "SubSubSection"
I wish to create a set of conditional formatting rules that apply to data rows in this table, each rule controlling how cells within a whole row should be formatted, according to the value found in "Type", for that row.
Example:
Rule1: [@Type]="Section" -> fat red line on top of cell.
Rule2: [@Type]="SubSection" -> thin black line on top of cell.
Rule3: [@Type]="SubSubSection" -> dashed black line on top of cell.
I can't seem to make this work.
How can I leverage the nice column names, and the "@"-this row designator, within a table to create conditional formatting rules that apply to all the cells within a row, in the same way one can refer to in table formulas?
I am trying to copy a column of cells from one sheet to another, but also want to keep all the formatting. The origin sheet has times, but when I copy these to the destination sheet they are displayed as decimal numbers (using the code snippet below). I can change these back to times by formatting the cells using the format painter after the macro completes but I would like the VBA to do this for me. (using 2002 SP3).

I am using concatenate but I don't have any luck. How to combine the content of my two columns.
I'd like to format (colour fill) C1 when H1 contains the word "Bills"
I've tried to "use a formula to determine which cells to format" but it keeps using absolute references ($H$1).
Ideally I'd like to apply the "format" to the entire column C.
I did think I'd be able to use OFFSET but it's not working.
I have a worksheet that I've applied conditional formatting to which works very nicely apart from when I use the formatting and apply it to a cell based on the contents of another.
What I don't understand is when I put a formula in cell b1 to read =$a1="yes" and format accordingly it works. So when I type in "YES" in to cell a1 ,cell b1 is highlighted. When I type in "NO" the B1 cell isn't highlighted which is what i would expect. IF however I delete what ever is in cell A1 the cell B1 is still highlighted.
I am trying to set up a conditional formatting which will look at the cell contents and check if the value exists in a range.
The range to compare will be over multiple columns and multiple rows.
I have a table of contents page. The TOC is updated each time some one opens the sheet (this is a must have based on the requirements). I'm trying to include some statistics next to each item in the TOC. These statistics are on each worksheet and just need to be copied to the TOC.
Now my problem.
The worksheets are NOT keep in alphabetical order, so After the TOC is created a sort is done to put the TOC links in alphabetical order. After the order is set, I need a formula that will read the worksheet name from a cell on the TOC (which is really a hyper link to a worksheet).
I have this already:
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Address!R[-2]C[-2]"
If "=Address!" (Where address is the name of one of the sheets) could be replaced with a cell reference that (I think) would do the trick.
My TOC is a MACRO not a cell formula so if this can not be done with a cell formula but can be done through VBA that would be fine.
I am attempting to build a table of contents and add hyperlink to each entry
as suggested by dynamic sheet index
The TOC is constructed properly, but when I click on the hyperlink I receive an error message:
" Reference is not valid"
My code (courtesy Jabax):
Sub Create_TOC()
Dim wb As Workbook
Dim wsTOC As Worksheet
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim r As Long
Set wb = ThisWorkbook
Set wsTOC = wb.Worksheets("TOC")
' Turn the next two lines of code on and off as preferred
' Ans = MsgBox("Do you want to update the Index?", 4)
' If Ans = vbNo Then Exit Sub
With Application
. ScreenUpdating = False
.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
.DisplayAlerts = False
End With...
I am trying to build a sheet that contains a table of contents at the top, followed by tables as one scrolls down in the same sheet. What I would like to have to the side of each line in the table of contents is the page number of the table that line is referring to. Is there a formula or a function I can use that will dynamically retrieve the page number of a particular table?

What I would like to achieve:
To create a list of all hidden sheets with hyperlinks so I can go directly to the hidden sheet. This would be the same as a table of contents but for hidden sheets.
I have a worksheet that has a number in cell K5 - the number is generated on "file open" code and is custom formatted as "TN"0000. Thus 1 appears as TN0001, 2 as TN0002 and so on. I am trying to save a copy of the workbook based on the this cells contents i.e. TN0001.xls, TN0002.xls etc. but the files are saved as 1.xls or 2.xls. The code I am using is
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="C:DataExcelFORMSDelivery Note" & Range("K5") & ".xls", _
FileFormat:=xlNormal, ReadOnlyRecommended:=True, CreateBackup:=False
I know I must make reference to format within the above....but how? if try something like
" & Format(Range("K5").Value, ("TN""0000")) & ".xls"
I get TN00000.xls
As I mentioned in my other thread, I have a spreadsheet with 9 worksheets and 200+ charts in individual tabs. As you can imagine, searching back and forth across 200+ tabs is a bear. While I have used Tab Colors to help, it's still way too annoying.
Sadly, each chart must be in its own tab in order to ensure that the links to PowerPoint and Word continue to work. Unless I'm missing something, individual tabs are the only thing that have worked for me.
I recently found a macro that creates a TOC for worksheets, but it didn't include chart tabs. Is there such a thing, or is there a way to creat such a TOC manually?
I am trying to create a drop down list for a table of contents that can link off to other pages within the same work book since it is very large and difficult to navigate through. I can create dropdowns were the lists it draws from is hyperlinks and that doesn't do anything special. It is just like drawing a regular list. I want the drop down when I click on something, to link me over to the other sheet.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a "Generate Table of Contents" button that launches a macro. This macro builds the Table of Contents, creates (3) columns (Patient Name, Date of Pickup, and Frequency), finds all of the sheets in the work book (already renamed to a patient's name), sorts them alphabetically, and lists them under the Patient Name column.
This code works great - The next challenge:
On each sheet (which corresponds to a patient in the database), there is a cell that is filled in that states which day the patient picks up their medication. There is another cell that designates how often they come to pick it up.
I am at a loss as to how to direct the macro to: For each sheet, go to the specific cell, and then report it in the table of contents.
It somehow needs to bind the information together... meaning the patient name, date of pickup, and frequency must be displayed correctly each and every time on the same row.
Here is what I am trying to achieve:
I have a workbook with two tabs, on the first one there is one column and the top of the column(A1) is a dropdown containing the options 'Boy' or 'Girl'.
One the second worksheet I have two named tables (Boy and Girl) - these tables each contain a single column array with 5 names in each (so we have a table of 5 boys names and a table of 5 girls names)
What I want to happen is when a user selects an option from the dropdown in A1 the cell below(A2) is populated randomly with a name from the corresponding list.
I have achieved this initially using the following formula:
=IF(A1="Boy", INDEX(Boy,RandInt(1,10)), INDEX(Girl,RandInt(1,10)))
This works fine, but I will need to expand this for several dropdown options, so my new workbook will have a dropdown of car makes, and each make will have a list of the models associatied with the car make (e.g. Ford: Fiesta, Escort, Mondeo...)
But I do not want to have a ridiculously long nested IF statement for every car Make, so what I want to do is something along the lines of the following:
=INDEX([CONTENTS OF A1],RandInt(1,10))
So I use the text selected from the dropdown in A1 as the TableName in my formula - however, I cannot retrieve that to use in the formula without it coming back as a text with the "" included and my formula errors!
I need to clear the contents of a columns G and H starting 11th row based on what is there in F column. The macro should check for last non-empty cell in column F starting F11 (assume it finds F30 to be last non-empty cell), then it should clear the contents of G11 to G30, H11 to H30.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have created an Excel spreadsheet teachers schedule for a small school with 8 teachers. I have assigned a number to each teacher (1 - 8) so that a number typed in a cell in Column E will cause a teachers name to appear in a cell in Column G. The ranges are E3:E20 and G3:G20. I hope to find a Macro that will display each teachers name in a different color.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have the file here i work with, basically the first column is a legend and the column to the right of it is a pointer column to help me find out where a legend is located in another file. So i was wondering if a macro could be made to basically find where the "legend column" A, C, E ect ends ( every other column is a legend column , one next to it is a pointer column ). and then combine the ends all of the columns contents and put them into 1 column.
In the file with this question i have showed you what i start off with, i highlighed in yellow where each column legend ends, ( normally these are not highlighted and i find them manually ). In the 2nd tab i show what the end result should be. All the columns are now consolidated into 1 column. 1 after the other.
I have a spreadsheet with rows of data. I need a formula that will return the column number of the last column in a row where there is a value >0.
Let's say that cells A1:F1 contain values. Some have values of 0 while others have values >0. I need a formula in cell G1 that will tell me the column number of the last value >0.
A B C D E F
0 2 5 0 6 0
So the formula in G1 would return a value of 5, which corresponds to column E.
I have a list that is streets and addresses. All contained in column A. Cell A1 is the street name and then Column A3 is the street number. This repeats down column A for almost 1000 street names. I need to fill column B3 with the street name, as well as B4, B5, B6, etc until the street name changes. I was trying to do this with an if..then but couldn't get it to work. I also tried to work on a do.. loop looking for the change from a string to number. But my programming is a little rusty. If anyone can help I was be forever grateful. I mean the alternative is to sit here and copy and paste all day.

I have two Tables, Table1 and Table2, in a single Excel spreadsheet. Table1 is our master log, and Table2 contains only Provider Names, Contact Names, Phone Numbers, and Email Addresses. I need to compare column K from Table1 with column AT from Table2. Whenever Excel finds a perfect match, I need Excel to copy AW:AY to AB:AD. For each value in column AT, there will be several identical matches in column K.
I have tried to implement vlookup() and index(match()), but cannot figure either one of them.
Table1 is almost 1500 rows long, while Table2 is not quite 80.
I searched but didn't find exactly what I needed. I have a workbook with 31 sheets. It is a price guide with each category on a separate worksheet. I figured out how to list the sheets on a separate tab. What my client wants is the ability to:
1. select certain categories for printing, the ToC, Cover and backcover pages have to print in every case
2. the ToC has to change depending on the sheets selected.
I'd rather write some code and give him an an easy command button rather then teaching him how to select non-concurrent sheets and printing only active sheets.
What I'm really stuck on is the updating of the ToC with active sheets only (category and starting page which changes depending on pages selected).
I’d like to check each row in Column F and Column K of Sheet Check. If Column F has the contents “Out” and Column K has any contents inside its cell, I’d like to copy that row and insert it into Sheet Alert. As a result the same row will exist in Sheet Check and Sheet Alert. This code will cut the row out of Sheet Check and paste the row into Sheet Alert if the contents “Out” is found in Column F.
