Formula That Checks If Cells Are Empty Or Filled In And Gives Valid Or Invalid Message
Aug 11, 2008
I'm looking to put a formula in the last column (Card Valid/Invalid (N3:N8)).
I want this formula to say IF Project Name OR Start date OR Due Date or Type OR Author OR VS are empty then I want the last column to say Invalid else if all of these columns are filled in then give valid. Also if a completed date or no. of review loops are filled in but not both then give Invalid but if both are filled in then as well as all the rest of the info give Valid.
Project Name - Valid/Invalid is B2-N2

I have two columns with values, and want to display "Valid" or "Invalid" in a third column, dependant on the two preceeding values.
If both column 1 and column 2 contain #N/A, then I want the third column to display "Invalid".
If the above is not true, then I want the third column to display "Valid".
I've been trying different syntax with IF/AND but cannot achieve the result.

My goal to checkup/analyze our contact details database, to do that i have to manually tag the invalid entries ( blanks, 0, wrong cellphone format, x, NONE etc. ) for cellular phone field as " INVALID " and if the cellular phone format is correct we'll tag it as " VALID " ( please refer to my attach file ) i have to get this task as fast as i could and our database comprises of 200,000 imagine if i have to manually tag it even in batches i have to figure out how to automate this..but the filter function of excel seems to be lacking for me. if there's a way how to automate this with this function:
- define field to be filtered out as for this case ill define cellphone # format and tag it as " VALID "
- define field to be filtered out as invalid entries ( blanks, x , 0, numbers less than 10 digits, entries that are telephone format, NONE, /// , XX, aa, @ ) or any sort of entries that are not cellphone format

I'm stuck using Excel 2003 to auto-populate a cell.
I have a range of dates in five consecutive columns called:
Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, Phase 4 and Phase 5
I enter the date that 'Phase 1' starts under the first header. Once Phase 2 starts I enter a date under 'Phase 2', and so on to Phase 5.
Each phase is consecutive to the next so will always be filled in from 1 to 5.
I want to create an additional column called 'Status' that shows the Column Title of the last phase with a date in it. For example, if Phase 1 to 3 had dates but 4 & 5 were blank, "Phase 3" would be displayed in the 'Status' column.
I've tried nesting some ISBLANK functions without any luck.

I am using the GetSaveAsFilename function to save a file. I have the filefilter as "Excel Add-In (*.xla),xla", however when I save a file this way as an add-in, then try to load that add-in, I get the following error message.
'C:Documents and SettingsUser1DesktopBook3.xla' is not a valid add-in.
Does this mean that the GetSaveAsFilename is not capable of saving a valid xla file?

If I changed it to the one above, I'm getting this >>> Run-time error '91': Object variable or With block variable not set

I am trying to define some variables as byte, but I want 0 to be a valid value rather than null. When there is no data, that is when I would like for the variable to be null.
Is there a way to accomplish this? In addition, I use the same variables in a loop, which are reset at the beginning of the loop. Is there a way to reset a variable without giving it a value (like 0)?

I have a Configuator sheet and the way it works is I have 6 different descriptions (plug connector, socket connector, length, jacket type, color, gauge). So when you choose a Plug Connector only the socket connectors that go with that plug are available to choose using data validation. Then depending on on the plug and socket connector it gives you the lengths that are available and so on.
Then I have a button with a macro that matches the descriptions you have chosen and returns the following: part number, Description, case qty, Available Stock, and Price. My issue right now is Not all plug connectors share the same Socket connectors so when someone changes the Plug Connector and has a invalid Socket connector from a previous selection the value returns as #N/A.
So what I would like to do is when I run my "Find Cable" Macro it will match each selection and if one is invalid returns a message box telling you which field is invalid i.e. socket, length, jacket type, color, gauge.

VBA code. I think I need a worsksheet change event. Here is what I'm looking for:
If cell K1 = 3 and if the value of any cell in column A is < 80000 or is > 86666, or if the five digit number begins with an alpha, then a msg box will pop up stating "Invalid range".
More background:
The user will be manually inputting 5 digit numbers into column A, but if they've selected cell K1 to equal 3 from a dropdown menu (which the user also does), then values entered that are less than 80000 or greater than 86666 are 'out of range', and the user should be alerted and if possible the number they entered gets cleared.
Additionally, some of the numbers the user could type in might begin with an alpha prefix, such as "G1234" - these would also be considered out of range when K1=3, so if the conditional statement could also recognize this it would be useful.
Column A will be blank until the user types in the 5 digit number, so the code only needs to trigger if the number typed into a cell in column A is outside of the aforementioned range.
So to sum it up once again, I'm looking for a msgbox (and clear cell) if the following criteria is simultaneously met-
*If K1 = 3 (meaning that K1 equaling anything other than 3 wouldn't cause the msgbox)
*And values typed in column A are less than 80000 or are greater than 86666, or begin with an alpha (meaning that values typed in between 80000 - 86666 wouldn't cause the msg box.)

Is it possible to make a cell "really" blank/empty based on an If statement? For instance:
=if(a1>10,a1,"")
Has a value_if_false of "". But Excel interprets this a bit differently than a cell that never had anything typed into it.
So if you have a column full of this formula copied down, and hit <control+down arrow>, you will go straight to the bottom and skip over all rows. Whereas if you have a column with values and empty cells alternating and hit <control+down arrow>, you will only skip the empty cells and go to the next value. Excel treats the conditionally empty cells as if they have a value, when it comes to this type of navigation. This holds even if you copy and paste "Values" for the cells over the formulas.
Is there any way to tell Excel to make the cells truly empty?

I am trying to develop a system to allow me select different parts from multiple sheets and then add them into a bill of material on a separate sheet.
[URL] ...........
I have written some VB script the best I can and it includes a 'commandbutton' to make it easy for the user of the workbook to use.
This is how it works:
Go to 'Step 1 - Manifold 8640' tab and highlight one of the yellow cells.Once you have selected a yellow cell, you then click the 'select' button above.The value (along with other values) are copied to the 'Smart Calc' sheet.Then you go to 'Step 2 - Gland Plate' tab, select a yellow cell, click the 'Select' button.Notice how the 'Step 2 - Gland Plate' value is entered into a different group in the 'Smart Calc' sheet - this is great................BUT
The issue I am having is:
If the user goes to 'Step 1 - Manifold 8640' tab, highlights the desired yellow cell then presses the 'Select' button twice, it will add two lines of data in the relevant 'Step 1 - Manifold 8640' section....This is ok.But when the user clicks a third time, the 'Step 1' data will overflow into the 'Step 2' section of the 'Smart Calc' tab...because the script tells the data to look for the next available line to write to. This is what I am trying to avoid!
Instead, i would like a message box to popup to indicate to the user that they cannot add anymore data into into the 'Step 1' or 'Step 2' sections of the 'Smart Calc' tab until they clear the data from within the relevant section in 'Smat Calc'.
I would like to set limits on where each 'Step 1' or 'Step 2' data is written to the 'Smart Calc' sheet (so it is within its relevant section). As you can see the script basically looks for the next available cell but this isn't really good when the data 'overflows'.
Note that you are able to highlight the yellow cells in the 'Smart Calc' tab and press the delete key, it will delete the data to clear the line. That is how i designed it to work so if the user makes a mistake they are able to just delete the relevant line and enter new data.

I have a spreadsheet that has a bunch of empty cells that I need to fill in. Someone else needs to know which ones I have filled in after I am done. Is there a way that I can have Excel automatically highlight the cell after I put something in?
I know I could highlight the cell manually after I put something in it but if Excel can do this automatically for me, that would be the best as this is a very large spreadsheet and there will be many blanks to fill in. I am using Excel 2003.

I'm trying to develop a formula that will take info from one tab (which would be the banks Cleared and Outstanding Checks report, and match with the checks that I have issued from the other tab. Basically this is for reconciling a bank account with the books. I want to add a column in tab #2 that shows if a check is cleared or Outstanding. So if I'm explaining this poorly, I apologize. Reply back if you have any specifics.

I'm working on a spreadsheet to compile and print checks. All the check information except the date and first check number is contained in a Wins sheet. I also have a Checks sheet which contains a master check. I used text boxes on the master check to contain individual check information. Each text box is filled in from the Wins sheet by means of formulas. The problem I'm having is how to modify the formula entries in the following code to cycle or loop through all checks required. A sample spreadsheet is attached.

I have a grade system where I need to obtain an "Average" of grade data within four cells. At time there may onlt be two cells with a value or three. Example: The cell cell cantain a value of 100 points with the totral of 400 point. AS we know the "Average" would be 100 points. But is only two cells cantained 100 point and the other two where empty then the "Average" come back as 50 points. Because I have 4 cells that requires a value input. So my question is how do I create a formula that will give the correct value for the "Average" of data that is placed in the cells. The values are calculated as a total from the grades entered. That total is in F14, F31, F48, F65 - Now if F14 has a value of 100, and F31 has a value of 100 then the "Average" should be 100, but it is not for the is calculating F48, and F65 as 4 values, so the return is 50. The situtation is that I need all the cells for in some cases data will be necessary, but I need the "average" to be calcalated for only the values entered.
Where is the Formula.
=IF(SUM(F14,F31,F48,F65)=0,0,AVERAGE(F14,F31,F48,F65)) - My brain says this is simple but no matter what I do it returns 50.

I have a sheet that I put a blank row before every change in column G,
Dim lr As Long, i As Long
lr = Range("G" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
For i = lr To 2 Step -1
If Range("G" & i).Value Range("G" & i - 1).Value Then
Rows(i).EntireRow.Insert Shift:=xlShiftDown
End If
Next i
and now I need formulas in columns B and I in those blank rows. I'm happy to roll it in to the above piece of code, or put it in after.
I don't think I can use LastRow to define my range and replace blanks with formula because of the blank rows. I would need more of a "LastRow with only one blank in between populated rows" if such a thing exists.
The formulas will be ="*"&H3&" DWG "&G3 for cell B2 and =I3 for cell I2.

I have tried a number of different ones from my search of this forum but I'm getting an error. here is a sample of my spreadsheet.
I want it to give me the lowest number, I don't want it to look at the 0's or if the cell is blank.
Here is my formula and my error:
=SMALL(N196:N203,COUNTIF($N$196:$N$203,0)+1)
my error is #num!
I've also tried others including using the MIN function but either 0 is entered or the error above.

I think I understand what you were talking about now with the generation of the watchbill using the rand() and sort. You were trying to get me to get rid of the whole system I was using before and use only the rand and sort. I thought you were asking me to incorperate the rand sort thing into the randomization process I already had using offset etc. The whole thing works good now, however, because the column Ive designated for the roster names may or may not always be filled the formula sometimes refers to empty cells in that column thus producing 0s on the watchbill. I was thinking maybe (if its possible) having a formula to identify a 0 and if so skip to the next cell down. The formula would repeat until it found a name without a zero in it.

I am creating a fantasy football draft board using excel. To keep it short and sweet, each individual team (one per column) has a $200 budget to draft players. Each team must fill 14 roster positions (one per row), but here's the catch; you must spend at least $1 on all of the 14 players on your roster. So you have a maximum bid amount which is your remaining budget subtracted by $1 for every remaining spot you have left to fill.
I have already created a "remaining budget" field which subtracts each drafted player's inserted dollar amounts from the $200... easy. Beneath this, I'd like to create another cell per team that tells you your "maximum bid," which is essentially 200, -1 for every cell that remains blank. I have played around with the conditional IF formulas but cannot seem to have it account for multiple cells.
As a workaround, I have made columns hidden beneath the board which contain the conditional IF, ISBLANK fields which are -1 if true and 0 if false. Then creating the "remaining budget" field that subtracts these values from 200. This works, but it's not perfect, as when you have multiple players you still need to draft and you've exhausted your budget only saving $1 for each, it overstates your "maximum bid" by $1, or when you have $X left and you need to only fill one more spot, it ill tell you your "maximum bid" is $X-1.

I have a list of assessment scores for students with a matching grade in text form. I want to show the percentage of students that receive "Adv" and "Pro" grades out of the total number of students (cells with data). But I have extra cells in case students are added during the year. I need to have the formula ignore any empty cells and count all of the "Adv" + "Pro" grades divided by number of students with data. I would like to do this by including the extra cells in the formula so I don't need to amend the formula should students be added. This is the formula so far. Maybe there is a totally better way to write this formula.
=SUM(COUNTIF(C7:C60,"*"&{"Pro","Adv"}&"*"))/COUNTA(C7:C60)
