I can't remember any formula to do the task. I have a time series with quarterly sales. The dates are in format given below.
01/01/1990 - first quarter of 1990
02/01/1990 - second quarter of 1990
03/01/1990 - Third quarter of 1990
04/01/1990 - fourth quarter of 1990
I need to add the sales of all first quarters , all second quarters..and so on.
Is there any formula that an elegant way or I have to do it manually?
I need to sum the contents of every fourth cell in row A .... ie sum(A1 + E1 + I1 ... BY1)
Can I do this via the formula bar, or do I need to use a VBA routine?
I have tried to apply '= SUM(INDIRECT("A2:A10"))' formula to do the SUM at cell A11. But, if I add two more Rows, then my formula moves down to cell A13 but numbers in Cell A11 and A12 does not get added to the total. How can I avoid that? I have reserached this site extensively and could not find an archived solution.

How can i do this job by means of formula.
I have a table of data that is laid out in multiples of two columns. I have attached a simplified example. Essentially all I need to do is count the contents of every second cell when it equals a specific value. If you look at my attached example it will be clearer. how I can do this using formula? (I don't want to use VBA in this instance).

I have a spreadsheet for work rosters. Each person on the roster has a row with info on what they're doing for a given week. Split into the am and pm session of each day.
All I want to do is be able to fill the row with the same value if they're doing the same thing for the week - eg if they're on leave, I'd like to hit CTRL-L and have the row populated with 'LEAVE' in each alternate cell, rather than typing it manually. Note that it is each alternate cell, not each cell as the alternate cell has different info.
So a row would look like this:
Leave | blank |Leave | blank |Leave | blank |Leave | blank |Leave | blank |Leave | blank |Leave | blank |Leave | blank |Leave | blank |Leave | blank |
For the am and pm session of the five working days. And just to complicate matters, each 'cell' on my spreadsheet is actually 4 merged cells, and the alternate 'cell' that I want left alone is two merged cells! This is the macro generated when I do a simple record - it does what I want, but obviously jumps to the original row that I recorded it in whenever I run it - I need it to fill the row that I start it from. I recorded starting in cell I133:L134
Would like a script that will go to each sheet in the workbook, and fill in light grey background, each alternate row that contains data, EXCLUDING the 1st row (header row).
I have a spreadsheet that I would like to loop through column "C" and if criteria is met copy and paste A:C on sheet1 to sheet2 over multiple columns alternately. What I mean by alternately is that I would past the first row in column A6 then the second in E6 then the third in A7 and so on until all items are copied. I purposely left a blank column between both columns of information. I've tried sorting/and advance filtering and couldn't get it to work.
Example:
loop through column "C" If I have the Letter "A" copy data to column "A" and "E" alternately back an forth until I no longer meet the criteria. I start putting data on the 6th row due to header information in rows 1-5.
... If column "C" is the letter "B" copy to column I,M,Q,U
Lastly I could always have less rows of information than I do columns. SO the last column could be empty. I always sort my data by column "C" so data will be sequential.
I have tried to go around the long way to achieve this but came up with pages of pointless code .... I know there is a better way I just dont know enough about VB to do it myself ... And I know this is EASY for many :-)
--------
Cell ranges h11 to as11 are a totals row.
If the total is 0, colorindex is set to vbpatternnone, if >= 1, then colorindex is set to vbpatterngray. Easy right ? I just dont kn ow how to do FROM/IF/DO range loops...
--------
Details:
The code in worksheet_SelectionChange will contain the following:
1: From range h11 to as11, variable1 = application.interior.colorindex of the cell.
2: Check if the cell is >=1 or <=0 ....
3: If >=1 then set application.interior.colorindex = vbpatterngray. Go to #5.
' (This inserts a pattern over the original color of the cell)
4: If <=0 then set application.interior.colorindex = vbpatternNONE
ALSO set application.interior.colorindex = variable1
' (This clears the cell pattern and returns it to original color)
5. Repeat steps to clear cell pattern and restore color / or insert pattern for all cells from range H11:AS11
6. End sub
I am wondering if it possible to automate the copying of data from particular cells, based on a value in a different cell, into a different format.
So to go from this simplified table:

At the moment I do it all manually, and it takes forever. I am sure there must be a simple way of doing it. I am using Excel 2003, but could work in a newer version if required.
I have a worksheet with several columns. I need a formula to search column D only and each time a specific location is identified to replace that location with alternate text. Example (ORIGNAL TEXT):
Column Dtext to text help.xlsx
BIRD
FISH
DOG
BAT
BUG
I need to search that listing and each time the word BIRD is mentioned have it replaced with FEATHERS and each time DOG is listed have it replaced with TAILS Final result would look like:
FEATHERS
FISH
TAILS
BAT
BUG
All other text should stay the same and replacement text should appear in the cell of the text it is replacing. This is a sheet used by multiple people several times a day and so the Find/Replace option really won't work.
Have working on this for at least 6 months and it just isn't going to happen for me. I thought I could use a Conditional format, but that is producing no results either.
i have attached a copy of an excel file and if you look at the end i am trying to write an IF statement that reads if J = "2-0" then column M = 12-(K) or 12--4 so answer is 16 and then column N = -column M or -16 and then if J = "2-1" then M = 6-(K) or 6--0 = 6 and then N = -M .....
so if J was "2-1" and (K) -4 then the answer given for column M would be 6--4=10 and column N = -10
I do an analysis that contains 100 or more rows with 1 of 2 row labels in column A; "existing" or "retrofit." There may be numerous successive rows labeled "existing" in a given place where there is no retrofit. Rows labeled "existing" contain existing equipment details such as area, equip description, operating cost. Rows labeled "retrofit" contain recommended efficient replacements with details such as area operating cost and savings. I have to display total cost and savings. Right now I use the awful method, F1+F3+F4+F5... for existing and F2+F6... for retrofit. This is a terrible method, time consuming, prone to error, etc. Is there a way to total rows with specific labels when the row labels are not consistently alternating? Would like to attach an example spreadsheet but... the permissions say I may not, for some strange reason.

I want to reference to a range of tables depending on the value of a separate cell. Problem is that I don't know how to insert this into the range part of the lookup formula.
EG
=vlookup(a12,NAMED RANGE AS PER CELL c9,2,false)
Cell a12 is the lookup reference which is fine.
Named range is set-up and working fine.
Cell c9 is the description of the named range - season_indices_Asda_Cream
I want that to be changeable by he user so they can change the name in cell c9 from a drop down list so that the lookup formula redirects to the alternate named range...
Is there any way that i can copy a row of data, but paste each individual cell that has been copied into every other column, or every 3rd column, or every x number column.
I want to do this as i have 3 column headers repeated across spreadsheet representing each month. and would like to paste into the relevant column i.e budget actual difference budget actual difference budget actual difference.
So I can paste each value under the actual column.
Im wondering if their is a formula to return the results in a Hlookup but adjusted for the cell 1 cell to the right?

I've seen a previous post from 2007 where someone asked for a formula to do the reverse of this. 'Domenic' provided a formula =INDEX($A$2:$B$6,INT((ROWS(D$2:D2)-1)/2)+1,MOD(ROWS(D$2:D2)-1,2)+1) which converted
a

Is there a command to do that?
I have been using a lot of sumproducting lately with multiple conditions to extract data. Lately I have noticed that though it is a good way to extract data there is a lot of calculation time involved in it. The Excel workbooks that i make are in a database like format where there is 1 sheet usually a data dump which has data from one column to the 200th column and rows being filled with data points till the 10000th row. Data headers in the columns are usually like Date(ColumnA), Tenure(ColumnB), Person, Type, etc and then from Column Z onwards there are columns which contain Data in the form of numbers like Number of cases, Number of this and number of that.
Now usually when creating a dashboard of this data for performance management I use the sumpoduct formula to retrieve data. It normally has conditions in it like for some given date ranges, Tenure ranges, People ranges extract x data for me. For Example something like this
=SUMPRODUCT((Sheet2!$A$4:$A$4898>=VALUE($E$3))*(Sheet2!$A$4:$A$4898

I have a workbook with two worksheets, Sheet1 and Sheet2. Sheet2 contains a table of values that need to be input into a cell on Sheet1, pending the results of comparing two other cells on Sheet1. I have 8 possible variations resulting from that comparison and I cannot make this work as the IF statement limits you to 7 deep.
Example:
Sheet1
A1 (text string value) = LOWER
B1 (text string value) = L1
C1 (currency with no decimals) = Sheet2!Somecell (decision of which cell to use depends on combination of A1 and B1)
A1 can be either the string "LOWER" or "MIDDLE". B1 can be the strings "L1", "L2", "L3", or "L4". The strings in B1 are not cell references, but simple text. This leads to four variations for a row that has "LOWER" in it's A column, and the same for "MIDDLE" - totaling 8 possible combinations.
Depending on the combination, I need to input a number from Sheet2 and that number is different for each unique combination of the eight possibilities. There is no mathematical calculation taking place on Sheet2 - just an "if x and y then z" decision on Sheet1. I will use the value of Sheet1!C1 in other math functions on Sheet1.
I'm trying to copy and paste range in alternate columns from one worksheet to another. I can record this macro, but I believe it'll be really long because I have 21 alternate columns to copy and paste. What I'm trying to do:
-copy range B9:B41 in workbook 'Channel OU template' then paste values only in range BI9:BI41 in workbook 'final'
-copy range D9:D41 to range BK9:BK41
-F9:F41 to BM9:BM41
..and so on until the last column AP9:AP41 to CW9:CW41
Basically it's just simple copying and pasting from alternate columns. This is the really basic code that I have just for one column:
Sub copy()
Windows("Channel OU template").Activate
Sheets("sheet1").Select
Range("b9:b41").copy
Windows("final").Activate
Sheets("ou").Select
Range("bi9").PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
End Sub
is there any easy way to fill alternate rows of a worksheet with a particular color? I have a worksheet with 175 rows and alternate rows are to be filled with green!
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet with 2 buttons labelled "Hide" and "Show". As the names imply, they allow the user to hide or show parts of the worksheet. I would like to combine them into one button and have the button label and the associated macro change with each press of the button. Here is what I have so far;
Sub SHOW_LEADS()
Rows("10:15").Select
Selection.EntireRow.Hidden = False
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 20").Select
Selection.Characters.Text = "HIDE LEADS"
Range("A1").Select 'is there a better way to remove the focus from the button than selecting a cell off the button?
End Sub
Sub HIDE_LEADS()
Rows("10:14").Select
Selection.EntireRow.Hidden = True
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 20").Select
Selection.Characters.Text = "SHOW LEADS"
Range("A1").Select
End Sub
These macros change the label fine after hiding or unhding the rows but I can't find the proper terms to use to change the macro associated with the button (if there is one?)
When the worksheet is changed;
-For each row between A3 and A5000
-If cell in column L is empty
-Do Nothing and move on to next row
-Otherwise if cell in column L is not empty
-Copy entire row to alternate sheet, and delete row from original sheet.
-After all rows between A3 and A5000 have been checked, sort alternate sheet in ascending order based on the contents of column A.
The issue is that the code keeps skipping some rows that should be copied, possibly due to the 'for each' command not liking how I'm deleting rows (maybe?)
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rCell As Range
Dim lRow As Long
lRow = Range("A3:A5000").Rows.Count
[Code] .....
I'm trying to find a way to alternate between two colors (white, grey, for example) in a stacked columns plot. Each stacked column should begin with a grey layer then white, then grey and so on. These plots will be created and changed frequently so I cannot manually do this every time.
