In cells A1:A3 I have:
(as text)
Cell Values Formula Needed
0100 01029250 FALSE
0100 01029304 FALSE
0100 REHAB01 TRUE
I need a formula in Cells B1:B3
to Recognize is a cells has characters A-Z
I am continually getting data withthe format YYYY-MM however I cant get excel to recognize this as a date. i simply need a formula that converts the format to anything that excel will recognize as a date so that I can apply some other formulas to it.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to figure out a formula to be able to look at a column of txt and if it finds the word total it need to output the number at the column next to it. If the word total isnt in the text then it should leave it blanks (see below). Basically I want a column that pulls only the totals amounts in the column.

I created a lookup helper sheet to do some data cleanup and serve as a key for future use.
The problem I'm having is that things that I am doing a vlookup on won't find the corresponding value in the key table.
So in the original sheet I had "blueberry" in the helper/key sheet I have "blueberry" as well. But I still get the "#N/A" error.
The key values in the helper sheet were all derived from the original by using a pivot then copying those values so there were only unique values over to the helper sheet.
I had them both formatted as general and tried formatting to text as well.
I want VBA to take an equation that has been entered into an worksheet cell as text and evaluate it. Here's a very simplified example that shows the concept:
Cell A1 may contain the text: "A * B + C"
I would like to do something on the order of this in VBA:
Sub Test()
Dim A As Integer, B As Integer, C As Integer
A = 2
B = 4
C = 6
MsgBox Evaluate(Workbooks("Book1").Sheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value)
End Sub
Obviously, this doesn't work, but I want it to show a result of 14. The actual situation is much more complex, but it all comes down to being able to evaluate the text in a worksheet and recognize the variable names that are in it.
=SUMIF($A$2:$A$9,F2,OFFSET($C$2:$C$9,1,0))
It works great.
The issue is that the information (time) that I import into excel doesn't show as information if there is a zero in front the amount of hours. I can physically see the information but have trouble using it. For instance if I add
(A1) 05:25:25
(A2) 10:25:25
(A3) 02:25:25
If I total/SUM this my total is 10:25:25. It will not recognize anything under 10 with a first digit as a zero. So for me to add this I use:
=SUMPRODUCT(B3:B25+0)
This also works great. Now on to my issue.
I am using the 1st formula to grab data i.e. (A1). It will not recognize that as anything. It comes up as zero. I can't figure out what to add to the 1st formula for it to recognize the info.
I am working on the monthly duty roster that is attached. I have the cells at the bottom configured to total how many early shifts, late shifts and off days each Trooper has. My problem is that I often need to add text to show what type of leave is being taken, or numbers to correspond to the special notes section numbered 1-24, and so on.
Is there any way to use conditional formatting to do this so that the totals at the bottom still sum correctly? Badge numbers are used to identify each Trooper. I have included them at the top for reference. The reason that I referenced them to total by cell instead of individual badge numbers is that I am attempting to format this so that any badge numbers can be entered at the top. This form will be used by other groups of Troopers if I can get it to work.
finding a code that would automatically insert various phrases into a column depending on whether or not the person in that row was due to renew their membership in our organization. The code I received works fantastically, but I've come across one snafu:
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have the following column:
A1 B1 B3
Ab123 1278 what i would like is if cell A2 start with AB then B1 and if not then nothing
AC125 1587
AF123 1365
AR125 1259
I would like another cell to check the cell where i have the two letters and the numbers. if the cell start with the number that i am intrested then to confirm it to me, or to give me a value from another cell.
I need to use conditional formatting to recognize blank cells meaning totally blank and not cells with formulas returning 0 what i must use to get this result?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to use the codes below to find text "xmxy" and "xmx" within a column, then try to move the cells between the texts to the right by one column. I believe that the problem for the code below is that
Cells(j, "B").Insert (xlShiftToRight)
or If Cells(i, "B").Value = "xmxy" Then has limitations. I read that when you dim a variale as integer, it only can contain value between -32,768 to 32,767 . But I have more than 32,767 rows of data. I have already set dim i,j, etc. as long, but how do you set the cells range to recognize number larger than 32,767?
Sub ShiftRightbbb()
Dim i As Long, j As Long, lastrow As Long, rowscount As Long, count As Long
lastrow = Range("b" & 65000).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To lastrow
If Cells(i, "B").Value = "xmxy" Then
For j = i To lastrow
Cells(j, "B").Insert (xlShiftToRight)
If Cells(j, "C").Value = "xmx" Then GoTo Nextgroup
Next j
Nextgroup:
End If
Next i
End Sub
Scenario:
Column A = Row Description
Column B = Control value
Columns C-V = Time in Months
Row 1 = Months
Row 2 = Initial Values to find if >0
Cell B4 = Assumption of 18 months
Cell B6 = Value of 250 to insert if TRUE
In Cell C2 (January) I have a value that is 12
For example purposes I have an If formula in T3 (which is 18 months in the future. The formula is: =IF(C$2>0, $B$6,0). The result should be 250.
What I am looking for is a formula that will allow me to change Cell B4 to any month I want and still recognize if any cell in Row 2 is >0 then 250 (B6). All of row 3 should be filled with the same formula.
Options:
This could be a match if >0 then edate to column that has value >0, at 18 (B4) periods out.
Sounds kind of confusing, but here's what I am trying to do. I have a stock template that goes out to MSN Stock Quote and retrieves data each time you click a button embedded in the worksheet. After doing this, the user must click a "FINALIZE" button that pastes the values of what was just retrieved into the same cells, thereby eliminating the formulas. This part works fine. The problem is I want to create some sort of warning sign for the users that lets them know if they have left formulas in the spreadsheet before they send it to others.
Is there some sort of formula (kind of like an =ISERROR formula) that would recognize if a cell contains a value or a formula?
i have encountered a problem which happens when you write data that contain : in an excel sheet (i use excel 2010)
for instance if i enter to one of the cell 45:58 excel sees it as 01/01/1900 21:48:00 when i try to get the information by using a function i will get the wrong data for example typing in the different cell LEFT(Cell,5) will result 1.908
(i receiving the data from an outside source in this way and i need to make analysis)
i have noticed that the first 2 digits (21 in the example) are related to the number i have choosen in a 24 hour cycle for instance
24:58 will result 01/01/1900 00:58:00
26:58 will result 01/01/1900 02:58:00
48:58 will result 02/01/1900 00:58:00
I'm working with text cells I get this tiny indent on the left hand side of a cell about the size of one hit of the spacebar button.
Excel doesn't recognise this as an indent and I can't get rid of it. It's, pardon my french
I like to create "templates" for files that I work with on a reoccuring basis, just to make things simpler. The current template I am working on tracks items processed by day and is used for two reporting purposes; 1 totals the pay ending items processed so I have the dates laid out based on the 2 week period with formulas for that. The 2nd way it is reported is by the month. Since this is a template, only the first day of the first pay period for a calendar year needs to be entered and the rest of the dates populate based on that date. What I would now like to do is add columns for January - December monthly totals using a formula that will read something like "if column A (where the date is) contains 1/1/2014 - 1/31/2014, then sum up column L" and than copy that formula for the remaining months.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a situation where I have to curve fit data, this can lead to different formulas being used with varying constants.
Is it possible to pickup a TEXT based formula and related constants from other cells, and then place this into another cell as a functioning formula. For Example
Cell A1 contains the formula as a text string whether it be y=a+bx+cx^2, or y=a+b/x, etc
Cells A2:A6 contain the individual constants, a, b, c, etc
I would then want the VBA to read the text based formula and put it into an output cell as a functioning excel formulae.g
In cell B10: =a+b*A10+c*A10^2
I understand picking the constants up and putting the formula should not be too much of an issue, however trying to insert the variable form of the curve fit is the part that I am struggling with, and am unsure if possible.
I would like to copy a formula in a cell and then paste only the text of the formula, but I can't figure it out. Basically, I would like to avoid going into the cells and absolute referencing or hitting F2, then copying the text.
When I hit "Ctrl C" to copy the cell, then hit "Alt/E/S/F/Enter" to paste the formula, it is just like a regular copy/paste formula-wise in that the references move.
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 list of headings and items and I have a set of formulas that work out depending on the heading what items are listed.
Say theres 10 items and the heading starts at C4 and that heading has 10 items, so it puts "C5" as text in G1 and "C15" as text in G2 so i now know my cell range of items
How can i use the text in those cells to put in a formula to call that as a range?
If I use the indirect formula it shows me the value of the cell, but im after using it to reference the cell
I'm trying to do a column of individual discount calculations using a discount percentage found in a cell two to the right of a cell containing the text "Total SP:" that is always upwards and to the left of the cell where the formula goes (but could be two rows or could be 20). There are multiple "Total SP:" cells in the sheet - I always want the first one upwards. I have created the following but I get #NAME? where I hope to see the discounted value.
VB:
Dim Discount1 As Double
Discount = Cells.Find(What:="Total SP:", After:=ActiveCell, LookAt:=xlWhole, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, MatchCase:=True).Offset(0, 2)
Range("R9:R" & LastRow).Formula = "=IF(J9>0,$E9*(1-Discount1),0)"
I've just thought, the Cells.Find needs to be redone for each cell where the formula is inserted to ensure it always catches the correct discount and this isn't going to do that - it's going to find it once and always use that single value.
I think this needs a Loop or something and to move the ActiveCell down one after the formula to get it to redo the Cells.Find.
I have text in column A of either "xxx" or "yyy"
I'm looking for a formula so that If
A1: "xxx" then B1: $100
Or if
A1: "yyy" then B1: $150
So when I write "xxx" or "yyy" in a cell of Col A
then $100 or $150 shows up in adjacent cell in Col B automatically.
I will need to sum the numbers later so Col B will need to be in number/accounting format.
I am wanting to convert a cell reference text
"=$A$1"
to an actual cell reference
=$A$1
Manually I can go through each cell and click F2 + Enter and Excel automatically changes it.
I have tried recording a macro whereby I click through each cell with F2 + Enter but the VBA writes the actual formula "=$A$1" rather than the process. This does not work as the cell reference is variable.
I'm NOT wanting an external cell to convert it for me
i.e. INDIRECT(CELL)
because I am wanting to copy the answer to another independent spreadsheet
I'm NOT wanting to paste values
i.e. return the answer from cell $A$1
because I want the cell reference to remain within the cell.
on the attached sheet i am trying to extract the number from the cell "under 200.5 pts" so i get just 200.5 then the cell with "L" in changes dependant on the number in the total points cell. When i try, i am getting the same answer regardless whether the total points number is higher or lower than the extracted 200.5.
View 2 Replies View RelatedFor reference, I am making a spreadsheet for keeping track of college football statistics, team records, etc.
Each spreadsheet is named for a team (e.g. "Michigan", "Ohio St.") and lists that team's schedule. As part of my statistics, I am trying to compile the win-loss record of each team that team has played.
Generically, my spreadsheet looks like this:
Opp.'s W-L record
Game 1
Game 2
Game 3
Michigan
Ohio St.
Nebraska
In order to compile the W-L record, I would normally have to have a formula as in =SpreadsheetMichigan.J4 + SpreadsheetOhioSt.J4 + SpreadsheetNebraska.J4
This is quite a lengthy process as this formula is different for every team. I would like one generic formula to put on every team's page that would grab the text of each team's opponent for game 1, game 2, etc.
Basically, is there a formula that I can put within the formula to say
=Spreadsheet[ReturnTextFromA4].J4 + Spreadsheet[ReturnTextFromB4].J4 + Spreadsheet[ReturnTextFromC4].J4
I need an excel formula to find the part of the text in the range of cells and display the values.
Eg: cell's A1 :A25 has text in it, And B1 :B25 has values in it.
I need to find "ABC" from A1:A25 ,IT could be either "ARRA ABC" or
"NON ARRA ABC" but not just and display the values for this frm B1:B25 in C1.
examples for A1:A25 is
A1 ARRA ABC
A2 Non ARRA DEF
A3 ABC
A4 Non ARRA GHI
A5 DEF
A6 ARRA JKL
I used the following formula,It seems to be working but only to that cell if i try to put the same formula in another sheet or another cell ,I don't see the values.
My Formula is as follows.
=IF((OR(A1:A25="ARRA ABC",A1:A25="NoN ARRA ABC")),B1:B25,0)
What is the proper way to enter text and a forumla into the same cell? For example a would like a macro to imput the words "revised on" and the formua Today in to the same cell.

I built a formula that should work, but it's too long so I need to condense it.
I have three columns, column 1 has names, column 2 has a formula.
I have 15 sheets, each with a name that could appear in column 1.
If the cell in column 2, sheet 1 is Bob, I want it to pull H5 from sheet bob. That works as:
=IF(A5="Bob", 'Bob Data'!H4, "Work in Progress")
But if I build that formula for all the possible names, it's too long. Is there a way to make the formula autofill with the name in cell A5
So: =IF(A5="XXXX", 'XXXX'!H4, "Work in Progress")
I'm trying to set up an if statement that will recognize that if a cell is FHR it will do something...but if it's PHR it will do something else. I think I found the place where I keep getting an error but I'm not sure how to go about fixing the issue.
