When cell A1 changes in Excel to 1 (fed via an external com process) I want another cell, A3, to display the value of cell A2 (also fed by an external program)
I need A3 to keep displaying the same value of A1 until A4 displays 'A' at which time A3 to start to monitor for changes to A1 again (A1 will now not display 0)
1. I created a "Top Category Data Dependent Validation List for sub-categories” in the attached spreadsheet. The selection from the Category drop-down list in column B, then drives or limits the choices in the Sub-category drop-down list in column C.
Credits: To achieve the above technique, I used the "Dependent List Validation" document as a technical reference.
the document is available from http://www.ozgrid.com/Excel/dependent-lists.htm
2. If the user updates the Category selection in Column B, then the value in the corresponding row in Column C should be "reset to a ( NULL/Clear) value," as to automatically prevent any human-error in forgetting to also update the Sub-category data in Column C.
(Optional Reading--the following steps are not related to steps 1 & 2 above, just notes regarding other data validation process created in this spreadsheet
3. I also created another column (D) that gets automatically populated with the Category ID,
based on the sub-category drop-down list selection in C.
4. Also in this spreadsheet, a macro checks for any "missing required data
before allowing the end-user to save this worksheet. As an example, In Column A, if there is a "RecordId" that exists in the same row, then the macro checks if the user has entered required values in Column B, C, "AND/OR" D. If the end-user did not enter any of the required values,
then an error message pops-up with this message:
"Cannot Save this file due to Missing Required Data. Please review highlighted record and complete missing data."

i have cells A1 to A10 filled with numbers
i have cells B1 to B10 blank
what i need to do is when something is typed in cell B1 - A1 to A5 are reset to zero and when i type something in cell B2 - A2 to A6 reset to zero.
I have tried to do this as a range ie
A1- A10 have numbers in B1 - B10 copy these numbers and reset if anything is typed in C1 with this formula =IF(C1:C5="",A1,"0") what it should do is reset B1 to zero if anything is typed in C1-C5 but only when something is typed in C1 does this work ..
if there is a way to reset the last used cell without saving? I have macro first brings in about 30,000 rows of data, but deletes most of it before it finishes running. This works fine, until the third time I try to refresh the report, when Excel won't let me insert another 30,000 rows of data because it would push the last used cell off the bottom of the report and that's apparently not okay, even if the cell is completely blank.
I have it set to automatically clear the blank rows and save when the report opens, but that doesn't help if they run it too often before that happens. I don't want to do a background save because they may have made changes that they don't want to save.
I just can't seem to get the syntax correct for setting or resetting a cell value using the OnTime schedule function. It looks like the cell value changes randomly and after several cycles it just runs non-stop very, very quickly and I have to use the ESC key to break out of the loop.
Here is my code:
VB:
Sub RunOnTime()
dTime = Now + TimeValue("00:00:10")
Application.OnTime dTime, "RunOnTime"
If Cells(1, 4).Value <= Cells(6, 2).Value Then
Cells(1, 4).Value = Cells(1, 4).Value + 1

My sheet has a Data Validation drop down menu "Department", where the user selects a Department. Based on this selection, another Data Validation cell "Team Leader" gives a list of Team Leaders to choose from. This works perfect. Change the Department, you get a different list of names. The problem is that if I have both a Department and a Team Leader selected, and then I change the Department selection, it keeps the Team Leader cell filled with now invalid data (the Team Leader from the previous department). If I then click on the Team Leader cell, it has the correct names listed to choose from, but until I do that cell retains the old information. Is there any way to blank the "Team Leader" cell, or push data to it (I've included a Choose a Team Leader entry in my list of people), when I change my Department selection?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI basically have four cells
c8 = goods in (new components in)
c9 = kanban stock (current qty in stores)
c10 = current stock (=kanban stock minus allocated)
c11 = allocated (number on order)
What I would like to be able to do is enter a figure in c8. This would then start the macro to update c9,10 and 11.
The problem I have is that if i enter a figure into c8 sure it alters the others if i do a quick =sum formula but does not reset. Therefore if I put for example 6 in cell c8 and then want to add another 8 all other cells alter accordingly. I want all cells apart from c8 to update and hold the figure after c8 has been entered.

I am trying to build a spreadsheet that tallies hours worked and hours available for the next day. The key to this spreadsheet is the number 70. A worker can accumulate no more then 70 hours in an 8 day period, however after any day with no hours worked the rule resets to 70 hours available again. I have attached a sample spreadsheet so you can see how this should work.

I've got a spreadsheet (attached) to calculate vacation time, but I can't figure out how to make the used time reset on an anniversay date. For example, if Employee 1 has earned 80 hours of vacation but only used 40 by his 4 year anniversary date, how do I make unused time roll back to 80 the day of his anniversary?
Here's the structure: 2 Personal days given Jan. 1, then 2 more on July 1 to employees here at least 6 months. Those whose 6 months fall after or between are awarded 2 days on their anniversary then accrue as normal. Unused personal days are lost at the end of the year. Vacation time is 40 hours after 1 year, 80 hours at 3 yrs, then 120 hours at 5+.
Cells B3 and B6 both have lists created through data validation.
If the value in B3 changes (by user selecting from the list), I'd like B6 to automatically change to "Select a take to retrieve" (which is the first choice in the B6 list.)
Likewise, if the value in B6 changes (by user selecting from the list), I'd like B3 to automatically change to "Select a version to take" (which is the first choice in the B3 list.)
I need to match data in cell A to cell B and then if they equal I need to copy the adjacent cell C to cell X . How do I set up a macro to do this automatically? I have over 5000 cells to compare and match up.. I have Office 2003.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook with 20 worksheets the first is a summary called Discount Set the 19 sheets with various names
The 19 sheets in column H4:H40 u enter a number greater than 0 which is the quanty required. This is used to calculate a price on which ever row it is entered
the selection must only affect numbers as there are rows that are just shading and they contain no data .
So u could enter quanties on serval rows of different sheets to get a total price displayed in the Discount set
What I want to do is have button on the Discount Set which will clear any quantity that does not equal 0 back to 0 in column H which will reset the total 0.00
I'm wondering if it is at all possible to have a cell comment automatically update depending on what data is input in the cell (via user input, VLOOKUP, etc.)?
For example, if cell A1 contains the text "CHARLES" with a comment saying "Employee of the Month", and is then subsequently updated with the new text "JOHN" (again, via direct input, a VLOOKUP, data validation, etc.) is there a way to have the comment automatically update to say something else, such as "Team Lead" for example?
I've considered using VBA to accomplish my goal, but am unsure how to compose an effective code to do so. I've also considered perhaps creating a named table filled with all the different comment possibilities I would like to have used in this cell and then inputting a formula in either cell A1, or the comment contained therein, that would then call the corresponding text from that table based on the data in cell A1. Honestly, I'm not sure that what I'm trying to do is even possible;
i want to match a cell data with a range of cells and if matches return the cell reference in another cell
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I use the mouse pointer to select a cell I can't use the arrow keys to move to another cell while the pointer is over the cell and I can't edit the cell while the pointer is over the cell. If I move the pointer away from the cell then I can move around and edit as normal therefore I don't think this is a scroll lock issue.
This issue also happens when I select a tab. If I select a tab and then leave the pointer over the tab I selected then I can't use the arrow keys to move around the worksheet or edit a cell; if I move the pointer away from the cell then I can move around and edit as normal.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI know that a variable of string type is equal to "" before it's assigned a value. So I reset the value of strings to empty (i.e. "") when I want them clear of a value. I also know that variables of Variant Type are equal to NULL when they are unassigned so I reset them to NULL when I want to clear them of a value.
But what about a Long? When you declare a variable of Long Type or Int Type or Double Type, what is it's inital value when empty and unassigned. I assume it's not 0 since 0 is an actual number.
I want to reset my lng variable and clear it of a value. So I'm wondering what should I set to... How can i do this?
I have a textbox that pulls language using the following code:
Code:
Private Sub TextBox1_Enter()
TextBox1.Value = Sheets("Language").Range("B2").Value 'places the value of the cell into the textbox

Randomly and sporadically, when working in the textbox, the form seems to reset. By reset, I mean that the language resets to what was there originally.

When I execute a macro, and if during the macro execution I press the "Esc" key, the execution stops and I get a Microsoft Visual Basic window with the message that code execution has been interrupted with buttons to Continue, End, Debug and Help. If I click the "End" button, the window closes and Excel is at rest - which seems to be some sort of Reset process.
I have a need to execute that process while Excel is at rest.
Is there any way to code the process in VBA?
I am not experienced at all with Excel, here is my problem: In column "A": I have 288 rows and has nothing but numbers in them. Row 1 is the lowest number, row 288 is the highest number. In each row the numbers typically increase; every once in a while the numbers may stay the same, but the number will never be lower. The numbers range from 0 through 600,000.
What I want to do is have column "B" follow column "A" until the cell total reaches 12000. The next cell in column "B" would then reset and start all over from "0". I want it to keep on reseting every 12000 counts. Another potential problem is that a majority of the time the cell value will not be an even 12000, 24000, 36000 etc. They may be more like A40: 11742 A41: 13201 etc.
I would like to add a date to one cell (say A6) and have this do two things:
#1) this would add "Closed" to a given cell such a A5.
#2) and this would add a color to a group of cells like A1 through A8.
I have one column that contains a monetary amount (column AQ) , and another that contains text reading either "inflows" or "outflows" (column AC)
When AC says "inflows", AQ should be positive, and when AC says "Outflows", AQ should be negative.
I need the text in column AQ (the monetary amount) to become red when the the opposite is true.
i.e. When AQ is negative and AC says "Inflows", AQ should become red. And when AQ is positive and AC says "Outflows", AQ should become red.
My spreadsheet has 459 rows; however, the vertical scroll bar ends at row 569738. I have attempted to delete all of the extra rows by holding SHIFT and CTRL, striking the down arrow then right-clicking on the left margin of highlighted row numbers and choosing delete. I have also done the same procedure except clicking clear all from the editing menu. None of these methods has removed the rows and enlarged the vertical scroll bar to a proportionate size in relation to the number of rows.

Now I want to alter one of the formulas. The problem is, if I change it in row 2 and fill down I get all kinds of different information. This is because while the present formulas read
='other worksheet'!A265
='other worksheet'!A934
- and so on at random, when I resort them I just get A2, A3, and so on.
I currently have the following VBA to make a filter work automatically in column D:
