I have a spreadsheet which shows a matrix in pounds. But I would like to have a reference cell somewhere near the top which will automatically show the conversion to kilos of any selected cell. Is anyone aware of a function which will do this?
For example, one pound equals 0.45359237 kilos.
Cell A1 contains the reference function to the active of selected cell. If I click on B1 which contains 12, cell A1 would automatically show 5.45. If I click on cell C1 which contains 20, cell A1 would automatically show 9.09.
So I’m thinking it would be something like
=SelectedCell/0.45359237 or maybe =ActiveCell/0.45359237
I know how to select an entire row, but if I want the "row" with active cell to be highlighted when I press enter, or the down arrow key, is there a way to do that (mainly for ease of viewing).
The rows will differ depending on the Active Cell that's selected and I don't know how to specify this. The range I want to copy is from Column B to DA on the worksheet ("Staff") which I want to paste to another worksheet ("Leavers"). This is as far as I got
'FindRemove = lstRemove.Value 'If FindRemove = "" Then End
' Goes to the start of the Data column 'Sheets("Staff").Select 'Range("B4").Select
' Tests current cell against FindRemove 'Do 'If ActiveCell.Value = FindRemove Then 'Call CopyPerson 'Exit Sub 'Else: ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select 'End If 'Loop Until ActiveCell.Value = "" 'End Sub
Is it possible to replace the Pivit table name/reference in a GETPIVOT function with a cell/range reference? I can on other components of the function call, but not that. For example ... the "hardwired" function call might be:
=GETPIVOTDATA(" Sum of 1991",'[EE_financial data.xls]Sheet1'!$A$3,"Company","ERG","Item"," Depreciation & Amortisation")
I can achieve the same result by externalising the 1991 and ERG, so i replace this with other dates or names, thus:
ERG 1991=GETPIVOTDATA("Sum of "&C13,'[EE_financial data.xls]Sheet1'!$A$3,"Company",D12,"Item"," Depreciation & Amortisation")
.. and this works fine.
However, if I try and replace the '[EE_financial data.xls]Sheet1'!$A$3 with a reference to a cell containing that string, it returns #REF!
I'm using Excel 2003 and I'm trying to make my LINEST function and the source cells for a scatter graph use the cell range specified in another cell in the document. I figured out that it was simple to do the following:
But I can't figure out how to do this in a larger function. I've tried a few things but none of them work. Here is an example where I want it to do a LINEST with y values in cells Ja - Jb and x values in cells Ia - Ib (where a and b are integers specified in cells I250 and J250 respectively):
I'm trying to create a dynamic COUNTIF function that references a previous cell.
For example, if I have 10 columns:
A B C D E F G H I J
a 1 b 2 c 3 a 1 b 3
I am trying to write a function that will let me reference A1:J1 and then if the cell contains an A, do a countif among the cell+1 for cells that have a value of "1". In this example, that function would return a count of 2. I think that I need some kind of combination of IF, INDIRECT, and COUNTIF, but I'm not sure how to string them all together--or maybe there's another way altogether.
Any way to use a find and replace function involving a cell reference. I have a spreadsheet with ton of junky text burying information that I want. Here is a simplified example
A B Book 345353hg dgdgsdgfd fff Book belongs to Jim Sneaker fdg4 Sneaker is worn by Jan Gum dfg s d e te4345Gum tastes great Cake jklsjflsjfjikCake smells delicious
The pattern is that the A1 text appears in the B2 text. What I want is
Find *A1 Replace with blank Find *A2 Replace with blank and etc.
So that in the end, I get this:
B2 belongs to Jim is worn by Jan tastes great smells delicious
I've looked at the functions of find, replace, substitute, left, and right and I can't seem to find the right one to do what I need.
I'm working in Excel 2010. I'm trying to create a dynamic range, using the OFFSET function. I've got it working beautifully but as soon as I save it and close the Name Manager the range stops working. When I go back into Name Manager I find all the cell references have changed (from C1:C600 to C1048572:C595 - or some other strange range).
P.S. What it's doing isn't so important as when the cell references are right it works. But just for full info: It's an OFFSET function, starting at A1. It will look at a list of companies and use a Match function to find out how many rows to offset (based on where the first instance of a particular company. And it uses the COUNTIF to make the range the same number of rows as there are entries for that company.
It is suppose to be that if the employee is "FT" and has worked >=4 years the return is 15. But if the employee is FT and has worked 2 years but less than 4 years then it is suppose to return 10 (these are days off) Or if the employee is FT and has worked 1 year, but less than 2 then it should return 5 days off. And all the others in the column get no days off.
I have tried to do it with structured references and with cell references I get a column of zeros!
I'm having trouble with the With statement near the bottom for the active sheet, effectively the row search. (Would be great if the font can be changed to red as well as text "Withdrawn").
Option Explicit Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim search As String 'stringy Dim ws As Worksheet 'worksheety Dim Answer As String 'answery Dim r As Range 'rangey search = Range("b7").Text 'texty Dim cell As Range cell = Range("4:10")
If I have numeric values in a cell examples c5 = 126, and d5 = 135. How do I place these values in c5 &d5 in another cell as a cell reference within the formula ex: =Average(f126:f135)
whenever the active cell is within a given range, highlight the cell on the same row in column S (by changing its interior colour). This should occur each time the active cell is changed, whether by cursor keys or mouse. The effect would be similar to the row and column highlights at left and top of the worksheet.
This action should be restricted to one sheet in the workbook.
I have got stuck on one piece of my code and having trouble fixing... Overall I am trying to find variable station name in cell L2 of Sheet 2 in Sheet 1 and then select and copy the data from the data in "cell L2 of Sheet 2" to the last entry of that row. I have attached an example test spreadsheet of the data and a macro is within Sheet 1 called test1. Please note that cell L2 in Sheet 2 will always be different station name and the station list in Sheet 1 will change with differing station name.
The code I am using is:

The code that is not working and bringing up an error is:
Basically it is a if statement saying that if the selected cell falls between 1/01/06 and 31/01/06 then Jan would be selected. The end part is not a problem; I’m just not sure how to write the one line of code that would test if the cell falls between the two dates. I attemped to create it as shown in the code attached below but wasn't successful. I used an else if statement to test the other 11 months.
Sub test() Dim SelectDate As Range Set SelectDate = Range("SelectedDate") If selectedDate >= 1 / 1 / 2006 And selectedDate <= 31 / 1 / 2006 Then ActiveSheet. PivotTables("PivotTable1").PivotFields("PnLDate").CurrentPage = _ "Jan" ElseIf selectedDate >= 1 / 2 / 2006 And selectedDate <= 28 / 2 / 2006 Then
I have created a simple Macro to change the Tab color of a worksheet based on the value of a specific cell. This spreadsheet has many worksheets (>20) and this sheet I have used as an error detection. If it see's an error on some other sheet, this cell will change from "OK" to "Error". The Macro then changes the Worksheet tab color to Red. The Macro works fine but ONLY if that worksheet is the open/active sheet (which kind of defeats the purpose). How can I trigger this Macro when this Worksheet is not the active sheet? Here is a listing of the Macro
Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim KeyCell As Range Set KeyCell = Range("A11") If KeyCell.Value = "OK" Then Me.Tab.ColorIndex = 6 ' Yellow Else Me.Tab.ColorIndex = 3 ' Red End If End Sub
I have a number of statements within the Sheet Event Code (Excel 2007). Three times lately I have added a column and had to go back into the code and find all of the references that needed changing to reflect the new column.
I have been working on this for a couple of days and even tried EE, but to no success.
I have read that Defined Names / Constants should be used as often as possible, but even trying that, the VBA code errors out or "hangs up". Even within Bill Jalen's book (VBA and Macros 2007), there is nothing that addresses this, especially using Intersect.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim rng As Range
On Error GoTo mEnd Set rng = Sheets("Log").[F14:F10000] If Not Intersect(rng, Target) Is Nothing Then If Target = "" Then With Sheets("Log")
I set up formulas to count text characters in a range of cells. I'm tracking attendance and payments for a small yoga studio.
All I need to do is count "Y"s for prepaid attendance and "DI"s for drop-ins. I have the formulas working but they are absolute so inserting a row will break my sheet.
I would like to create a UDF similar to the SUMIF function but the UDF would be dynamic in that it would sum based on a dynamic range that would change based on the row the user is in.
background: I have a very large input template for 12-18 months for multiple cost categories. I would like to have the UDF in a specific cell above each category that would show the user what the sum of the range in the current row they are inputing data. Each row represents a specific project/task (along with 12-15 descriptive columns) that makes the freeze pane option unusable.
I am looking for a macro or function (VBA) that will modifiy the value of the selected cell or cells. the code should support selection of one cell, a range or multiple ranges.
I envision the user making his range selection(s). Activating a function or clicking a button that would pop open a modal window. The user would have the option to either adjust the values by a % change (i.e. up or down 7%), or incremental change (i.e. up olr down 100 units). The function would overite the value in the cells.
Has anyone ever done something similar? Is it hard to program?
For the sample data below, columns A – C contain survey response data: 3, 6 and 9. I'm looking for advice on writing a function for column D that would look at columns A – C and return the # of the column containing the min value (e.g. A in this example).
I wrote this function to see if a user selected string contained certain phrases. It keeps returning united states so i am guessing its not cycling through the entire list.
Function region2(searchString As String) Dim result As String result = "None" Dim lng() As String lng = Array("arabic", "belg", "bul", "czech", "dan", "dut", "dutch", "euro", "finnish", "french", "ger", "greek", "greenland", "hebrew", "hung", "iceland", "international", "ital", "nor", "pol", "portu", "russ", "slov", "spanish", "swe", "swi", "turk", "UK", "united kingdom", "states")
I have two tabs that reference the function ConcatenateIf(), defined by me, see below:
Function ConcatenateIf(iRange As Range, iLook As String, iNum As Integer) For Each cell In iRange If cell.Value <> iLook Then ConcatenateIf = ConcatenateIf & Chr$(10) & cell.Offset(0, iNum).Value End If Next cell End Function
Works great. But then, I copy one of the tabs to make a third tab, and suddenly every cell in all three spreadsheets that references ConcatenateIf displays "#NAME?".
I am trying to code a macro that will search through a selected range of cells for key letters, for instance this cell may contain any combination of B, C, Te, Tc, RH, or LH. I would preferably like to search with capitalization being a factor but it is not a deal breaker. Below is a sample of what i have if the cell has a B, C it works for B but ignores the C i need it t o recognize both.
Code: If InStr(1, ActiveCell.Text, "B") Then Range("O" + CStr(ActiveCell.Row)).Select With Selection.Interior .Pattern = xlSolid .PatternColorIndex = xlAutomatic .color = 65535 .TintAndShade = 0 .PatternTintAndShade = 0
I'm trying to do a formula that references a cell and returns a different result dependant on the number in the cell being referenced.
For example I've said if A1 has a 3 in it then put the word TEST as the result, plus if it has a 4 put the word RESULT.
What I wrote as my formula is as follows-
=IF(A1=3,"TEST")+IF(A1=4,"RESULT")
It works fine when I only use one result but goes wrong when I add two. If I change the words I want to show to numbers it comes up fine but with words it just returns a Value error.
I have 2 inventory reports: what my store has and what my supplier has. I need to copy Tab1:K# to Tab2:T# provided that Tab1:A#'s contents match Tab2:A#'s contents. The A column represents the SKU of the item, but there is a difference in the amount of SKU's in each (my store sells ~6,000 items, supplier has ~10,000 items), so it's not as simple as sort by column A and copy pasting column K to column T.
For instance: On Tab 1, A2's value is [1], K2's value is [9.38]. On Tab 2, A70's value is [1], K70's value is blank, but I need it to be [9.38], to match Tab 1's respective SKU.
I almost thought I had it figured out with VLOOKUP, but I cant seem to get it right... It doesn't reference the correct number.

Below is my code which isn't formatting the cells it's suppossed to. It looks like it isn't doing anything. I think the issue might be with the highlighted section of my code, but when I go to "Manage" my rules for conditional formatting, excel references the appropriate cell under the "Applies to" section. I am using relative cell references for for the majority of the rest of the code and this section follows a section that selects the correct cell for this conditional format.
I want to do a search for the amount of people of a certain age in a column, but I want to be able to vary the amount of cells I look in. So first I might want to look for people aged 15 in A3:A35 and then in A3:A55 to see if there is a difference.
Now the optimal way to do this, in my opinion, would be to have a reference that looks like A3:A(B1) and then have the number of the last cell I want to look in in B1, in this case either 35 or 55.
