Formula For A Cell Contains Specific Character Then Multiply By Another Cell
Feb 17, 2014
Can I get a formula for the below specification.
if a cell contains character A THEN multiply by cell B * 0.02,if a cell contains character B THEN multiply by cell B * 0.05,if a cell contains character C THEN multiply by cell B * 0.010
Essentially what I'm trying to accomplish is import a file from Quickbooks and determine whether it was a Credit Card, Check or Invoice based on the account number.
For example:
45-12345 should return the value CC in an adjacent cell because it contains the "-" character. I0123456 should return the value INV in an adjacent cell because it contains the "I" character. 01234567 should return the value ACH in an adjacent cell because it doesn't contain either character.
I tried using VLookup, but I can't figure out how to write a formula for when it just contains a character, only if it matches it or is text/number.
Cells A1:A5 all have a vlookup formula that will pull one of the following into it:
1. The word "NONE" 2. #N/A error since it doesn't exist in the table 3. A text value that has the format 13.55.46.91
I want a formula that will look at these 5 cells and give me #3. That #3 value can only appear once in the 5 cells in any of those 5. The other 4 cells will contain either 1 or 2.
3 always has length equal to 11. It always has periods in those places. The digits do change.
I have a row of cells that contain a single letter: W,C,O.
I need to provide a count of the number of occurancies of each letter. So I have a cell that shows me the total W's, a cell showing me total C's and another showing total O's.
Whats easiest way to do this?
I know its not ideal, but on this occassion ive no desire to add and hide another column.
Condition 2 in the same cell. If the product of F2 multiplied by D2 is > E2 AND the sum of F2 and F1 multiplied by D2 is > 0, then add the product of D2 multiplied by the sum of F1 and F2 to E2, otherwise input E2
Condition 3 in the same cell. If the product of F2 multiplied D2 is < E2 BUT the sum of F2 and F1 multiplied by D2 is > 0, then input the product of D2 multiplied by the sum of F1 and F2.
Condition 4 in the same cell. If F2 < 0, and the sum of sum of F2 and F1 multiplied by D2 is < 0, then 0.
This is the best way I could think of the write out my intention. I think if I can get the above scenario into a one cell formula that should resolve my pain.
I am using vlookup to get a cell value from another sheet, but if the cell has "&" or "/" I need to substitue "&" and "/" with "and" so that the cell can be added later to a url.
i am using =VLOOKUP(a1,Sheet2!A1:W17968,6) to get the value of a1 in sheet 2 and return the value of column 6
this will return "Audio Cables & Leads" but i need it to say Audio Cables and Leads
I need the formula to also check and replace "/" with "and" as well so cables/wire will be Cables and wire
I paste new data into a sheet of a monthly report I prepare. For this sheet, the # of data rows change (and is unpredictable) every month. I need the value inside a specific cell that dynamcially moves up and down based on the # of rows for that month (because it's below the rows of data).
So I made a formula to identify the exact cell # every month.
Example:
This month the exact cell is F255 in the "Refi" sheet.
So my formula in the "Summary" sheet cell A1 first finds the cell row # only (255) and since it's always column F, in B1 I have
VB: ="F" & (A1)
This outputs "F255" in B1, successfully identifying the target cell.
Now how do I write a formula in C1 to grab the value from whatever cell is named in B1. (For this month, the value in cell F255 from the "Refi" sheet)
I have a value in a cell in Sheet2 (in this case its price per ft), on sheet1 is where I would input the number of feet. So can I multiply from data in cell on Sheet2 from cell on Sheet1and if so....
I can pick one of these. If i pick Cash then i want a specific cell to run a specific formula. depending on the item chosen.
So in cell A6 is the list.
in cell B6 an amount will be place and in C6 another amount will be place. the number for c6 will range from a -number to a +number.
But D6 looks to see if B6 meet the requirements for MTT, SnG or Cash depending on which item was selected from the list. and uses the formula below with $c$3 changing from to either $D$3 or $F$3 and comparing the values for the chosen item. the formula changes would look this
=IF(ISBLANK(C6),IF(B6>$C$3,"Do Not Play","PLAY"),IF(C6<B6, "Lost","Win"))
=IF(ISBLANK(C6),IF(B6>$D$3,"Do Not Play","PLAY"),IF(C6<B6, "Lost","Win"))
=IF(ISBLANK(C6),IF(B6>$F$3,"Do Not Play","PLAY"),IF(C6<B6, "Lost","Win"))
I have a cell which will contain SER01+SER02+SER03
and what i need it to contain is [SER01]+[SER02]+[SER03]
and shocker is i've got this to work for the first instance but not the other two
code as below... be grateful for your help
Sub measure1() Dim list As String, pos As Integer, refl As String, refr As String, newlist As String list = Cells(1472, 16).Value pos = InStr(list, "+") refl = Left(list, pos - 1) refr = Right(list, pos + 1) newlist = "[" & refl & "]" Cells(1472, 17) = newlist End Sub
I have a row where C5 is the total of C1:C4. What I am trying to do is if C1 or C2 or C3 or C4 has a number value that I can multiply the cell in question by 2 and then add up all of the cells to give a total in C5. Also, I have a name in A1, but when I select E1 and enter =A1 into the cell then return, I get A1 in the cell instead of the name in A1.
I need a VBA macro to multiply column E and F and deposit the result in column G. The multiplication should only happen when there is a value in the column E. If there is no value in the column E, then the cell in the G column should stay blank.
I have a string of text in cell A2. In cell B2 of my spreadsheet is a formula that calculates a number based on the text string in cell A2.
I want to write a VBA loop that removes a single character from the cell A2 string, then calculate the new value in cell B2. I want this loop to continue until the value in B2 falls below a set value (in this case 60).
My code so far Sub trim_text() Dim mytext As String Dim myanswer As Integer mytext = Range("A2") myanswer = Range("B2") Do While myanswer > 60 mytext = (Right(mytext, Len(mytext) - 1)) Loop End Sub
This obviously does not work. In my excel table I have a formula in cell B2 to calculate "myanswer" will this work, or does that code have to be placed into the VBA code?
I have number in cell (A1) = 100. when I enter number in any cell of column(B) for example (B1)=10. then in cell (C1) the result of (A1) - (B1) = (90) and if I add in cell (B2)=10 then in cell (C1) the result of (A1) - (B1+B2) = 80 .accumulatively in cell (C1). and any number in column (B), the result will be (A1) minus any number in column(B) accumulated in (C1)
second question
I have number in cell (A1) = 100. when I enter number at cell (B1) = 10 then the result would be in the adjacent cell (C1) = (A1) - ( B1) = 90 and If I enter a new number in cell (B2) = 10 then the result would be in the adjacent cell (C2) = (A1) - (B1+B2) = 80 and If I enter a new number in cell (B3) = 10 then the result would be in the adjacent cell (C3) = (A1) - (B1+B2+B3) = 70 and so on. I want the result to be add automatically to adjacent cell in column (C)
I would like to be able to put manually a formula in a specific cell (like a "requested date" cell) and then have a table that use this date for the headers and calculate +1 year for each columns.
For exemple:
=2012-01-01 =2013-01-01 =2014-01-01 =2015-01-01
requested date: 2012-01-01
Would you know a way to easily do it? when I try to do it manually (+365) it doesn't consider leap years. I thought about a =DATE formula but the requested date have to be manually entered...
When i entered a code to the cell 'code', it reads the code from the sheet 'Products' and then transfers to the active sheet 'Order' some items.
What i want is: Because the user has to enter the quantity either to the cell 'Pallets' or 'Cases' i want to be locked the empty cell each time and to be used for calculations.
1st Eg. The "45870" Pallets to order : 50 because the user used the pallets the cell "Cases" must be locked and it must calculate the 50 pallets*100 so Cases : 5000
2nd Eg. The "45870" Pallets to order : null Cases : 5000
because the user didnt use any pallets the cell "Pallets" must be locked and it must calculate the 5000 cases/100 so Pallets to order : 50
I have a spreadsheet that I am using to track competitor retail pricing The problem is that I have a list of values and I want to be able to show how many of these values are either higher, lower or the same to a specific cell value. However one complexity that I have is that some of the competitors do not have values for all records (i.e. some are blank) and I want to discount these from the counting.
I have data in several cells, and I want to extract only the information in the cell up to a /. For example "joesmith/shipping" I would like to have only joesmith in the cell next to it.
I'm trying to make a sheet to calculate my taxes. I would like to keep tax rates from previous year(s), and have them applied based on which year I input in a cell..
Let say that in cell B1 I write year 2013
In cell G1 I have year 2013 and in cells G2:G7 I have tax rates from year 2013. In cell H1 I have year 2014 and in cells H2:H7 tax rates from year 2014
In cell B17 to B20 I would like to make a formula that multiplies cell B11 or B12 with information found in either column G or H based on input in B1.
I have attached a spread sheet as example.
I know I can make a formula based on IF(B1=2013;G*;IF(B2=2014;H*;etc..
I was wondering if there is a formula that will search a cell for a word or other specific criteria then if it finds it, puts the requested data / word in the formula cell
Example:
If I have a list of vehicle descriptions all in different formats:
CAR1 1.4 SRI 3 door Hatch CAR2 5 door saloon GSI 2.0 V8 2.2 CDX 5 door CAR3 Estate CAR3 Estate 5 Door CDX
Say I want to know which ones are CDX varient I need the formula to look in the cell and return "CDX" or "YES"
