Formula For A Letter Typed

Mar 23, 2007

I am trying to make a puzzle and use excel to verify I have done it correctly.
What I want to do is when I type a letter in a specific cell have it put a number value in another cell automatically. For instance, if I type the letter "a" in cell A1 I would like the number 60 to populate automatically in cell B1. I want to give each letter in the alphabet a numeric value so I can type a message in the A column and then auto sum the results of the numbers in the B column.

Auto Select ListBox By Letter Typed

Jan 10, 2007

From VBA code - I need to be able to populate a list box with a assortment of city names, (>200 entries), and be able to start the city selection with an alphanumeric “hot” key in the pick box – i.e. – when the user enters an “S” – the list box data jumps down to the start of all of the cities beginning with “S” – etc.
(I can populate the list box) – it is the alpha selection code that is kicking my butt.

Auto-replace Typed Contents In A Cell With A Formula

Apr 9, 2008

I want to set up a sheet macro that will replace the contents of a cell (when a specific number is typed in) with a specific formula.

For instance, when "43" is typed into any cell within specified columns (say columns C and H), it changes to the following formula: =IF(D47="",43,IF(D47<=3030,408,43))(WHERE D47 WOULD REPRESENT THE CELL ADJACENT TO THE CELL WHERE "43" WAS TYPED.)

IE:

If "43" was typed into cell C1, then it would change to the formula: =IF(D1="",43,IF(D1<=3030,408,43))

If "43" was typed into cell C50, then it would change to the formula: =IF(D50="",43,IF(D50<=3030,408,43))

Return Column Letter Based On The Letter In A Cell.

Dec 31, 2009

For the below formula is it possible to replace the B's (column location) with a cell Say Z146 which contains the letter B (or a number if thats easier and someone can tell me the numbers for each column).

When the formula is dragged into the next cell (down) it takes its column reference from Z147 and then my life becomes so much easier.

=IF(INDEX('Overs-Unders'!B:B,MATCH($C145,'Overs-Unders'!$A:$A,0))"",INDEX('Overs-Unders'!B:B,MATCH($C145,'Overs-Unders'!$A:$A,0)),"")

If Cell Contains Letter And Number Formula?

Oct 4, 2012

I am trying to make a formula which will tell me if A1 is a postcode (a letter and a number e.g CV42 6AQ)

In the A column, it looks like this:

CV42 6AQ
FC45 D4D
West yorkshire
PR42 6RD

Etc.

i want it to identify all the postcodes, and NOT "West Yorkshire" because it does not contain a number.

How To Use RIGHT Formula To Show Value Until Capital Letter

Dec 29, 2011

I was wondering whether it is possible to find a formula in Excel that would extract (using RIGHT formula) surname from Name Surname cell despite surname lenght i.e.:

'John Smith' in one cell would give 'Smith' in the other
'Tom Let' in one cell would give 'Let' in the other

I have tried to combine RIGHT, FIND and PROPER (for upper case) in one formula but it does not work.

How To Output Column Letter (not Number) With A Formula

Dec 23, 2009

Is there a function that will output the column letter? For example there's one I know of: =COLUMN(), which outputs column number, but not the letter. And if not, can a formula be written to output it without converting the spreadsheet to R1C1 style or using the lookup function that refers to a separate table within the spreadsheet?

Formula Must Ignore Typing A Letter In A 24hr Format Cell!?

Oct 15, 2009

Well following on from my question earlier, I am still playing with my timesheet/rota I'm developing.

I have a start time and an end time, which is formatted as hh:mm then an hours cell which adds them up for you.

BUT if someone is on a rest day or a holiday day or a sick day etc, I would like them to be able to type that in without the cell that adds the hours up going doo laly!!!!! (######)

So, is there anyway they can type say 'R' and then getting the hours total cell to ignore it because it isn't a time?

Formula Required To Take First Letter In 1 Cells And Add Random Number To Create Unique ID

Mar 27, 2014

I have 1200 doctor/patient records to input into an excel spreadsheet for import to an online EHR database. I can set up all the normal formulas and formatting but for the life of me not figure out how to create a custom formula to take the first letter of the patient first name and last name and add 6 figures to create a unique patient identifier.

ie. James + Smith+ random 6 figures = JS245318.

In my spreadsheet the first name is under Column 1, Last name Column 3 and the unique number generated in column 4.

Sort And Hide Rows As Typed?

May 3, 2014

Is there a way to imitate the search box in access where it highlights any matching text in the entire database. BUT, instead of hitting the next arrow to go to the next matching thing, I want it to simply hide all rows that contain nothing that matches. I don't want it to just hide them though, I want them to be shown from the topmost cell down rather than simply hiding cells and having a ton of gaps to look through. If this can be done in access then that will work as well.

VLOOKUP And Still Have Typed Text In Cell

Oct 27, 2008

I was wondering if there would be a way to use vlookup and still be able to type text in the same cell. For example, if the vlookup gives me a result of 123. I want it to also pull from a different cell that I've typed in 321. So the resulting cell would show 321-123 or 321 123. I have attached a sample sheet. On sheet two where the 3 items are, I want it to display 321-123 for item 1, 321-234 for item 2, and 321-345 for item 3. The 321 would be dependant on what I type into B1 on the first sheet.

Convert Variant To Typed Array

May 23, 2007

I am using strongly typed code, but I am also pulling data from worksheets into variants. e.g.

Dim MyArray As Variant

MyArray = [MyNamedRange]

is there any shortcut to convert the variant to a typed array, which doesn't just involve looping throught the variant and using a casting function, e.g.

Dim MyArray As Variant
Dim typedArray() As type

MyArray = [MyNamedRange]
typedArray = shortcut(MyArray)

Dropdown List - AutoFilter With First Few Words Typed

Jan 3, 2013

it is possible to have a drop down list (Cell A1) where you can type in the first few letters of a word and have the drop down list go to the the words that begin with those first few letters (searching in column 10) instead of having to scroll down the entire list to find the word / item you are looking for.

I ask since the drop down list may end up having up to 1000 words in it.
