I have a column with both positive and negative numbers, is there a macro or a bit of code that will convert all negative numbers in a selected column to zeroes?
I'm trying (with little success) to match some negatives and positives, but the formulas that I found on line keep on picking up all matches (just like a VLOOKUP formula)
23 23 -23
The formula would match the -23 with the 2 positive 23s. This formula goes in Column O
I have a question regarding calculating percentage differences, here is how our formula works, but I've done a little research regarding using negative number for percentage calculations and am not sure...
For sample:
this year (TY) we had net profit of $200 million last year (LY) we had net loss of -$32 million
our formula works kinda like this:
=IF(B49="","-",IF(B49=0,0,D49/B49-1))
but if, the comparing numbers is negative should I convert that to an absolute number using ABS ? what if both numbers are negative ?
The way I understand the current formula is like this:
if B49 is blank, then insert a dash, otherwise IF B49 is 0, then 0 (since we can't divide by 0), otherwise do the formula.
Long Version: This should be a fairly simple question, with a solution involving unchecking a box somewhere, but I can't find it. Whenever I enter a number in parentheses (for example: "(187.13)") into a cell Excel automatically converts that number to a negative--- "(187.13)" becomes "-187.13". I've been using the apostrophe option as a workaround (i.e., '(187.13)) to store it as text instead of a number, but this is becoming a hassle because it recognizes that (187.13) is a number and alerts me with an error message of numbers being stored as text.
Short Version: Basically, I want it to stop automatically making "(187.13)" become "-187.13" but I don't know where the setting is.
For year 2007,2008,2012 and 2013, we have negative cash.
I want to compute for the investment cost, which I define to be the total accumulated cost before first positive cash. First positive cash occurs at 2009, so I want to sum 2007 and 2008, However, 2012 and 2013 also reports negative cash, so in the SUM formula, their values will be included.
How should I write the formula in order to sum all the negative cash before positive cash, disregarding all the other cash flows thereafter (be it positive or negative)?
I have the following code in a user form, attached to a data field that the user should fill. This code should alert the user if he enters a negative number i.s.o. a positive (and vise versa). Due language related issues, it is quite possible that the user will enter (by mistake) a negative sign but it will be at the end (500-) and the user will not notice this mistake. For some reason, my code does not pick up on this, and does not pop up the error message. Therefore, I decided that I need to check if the value entered by the user also contains a “-“ at the end of the string. This, I believe, will take care of the problem.
In excel, I would simply enter a formula with Mid and Len (to check if the last character is “-“) , but I don’t know how to implement it in my code.
Sub txt_sum_BeforeUpdate(ByVal Cancel As MSForms.ReturnBoolean) 'Verify that a negative sign was added for expenses With Me.txt_sum Select Case cbo_act Case "Expense", If Me.txt_sum.Value > 0 Then MsgBox "Number must be negative" End If Case "Income" If Me.txt_sum.Value < 0 Then MsgBox "Number must be positive" End If End Select End With End Sub
i'm looking for a formula that gives the greatest number of a range problem is that there are positive and negative numbers in the range but I only want to look at the value (+/- signs are not important)
I use keyboard commands whenever possible. They are much quicker than the mouse.
For years I have been using [Ctrl]+[Shift]+[1] to format cells as numeric with two decimal places, 1000 separator(,) and showing negative numbers in black with a minus sign in front.
look at my attachment and see what I am doing wrong in my formula? I have a hard time understanding the Sumproduct formula and when to use comma's, double negatives, addition, etc.
This is my formula and it returns: -55 bps. =[ASK.xls]QTR!$AT$81&" "&"bps"
However, I want it to return (55 bps). I don't want to just add the parenthesis because in the future this formula could return a positive number. I tried to format the cell differently, but that did not work.
I am using the following function quite frequently: (INDEX(DJ:DJ,MATCH($GJ3,DC:DC,1),1). Because of the way the data is organized the function is commonly undefined (output="#N/A"). I would like the program to print a constant (718) when the function is undefined. Below is the function that seemed intuitive to me, but doesn't do what I want.
I'm trying to create an If then statement that will will allow multiple criteria and output the corresponding data if possible.
I've attached a sample data file to provide insight. I've also used a random number generator formula to create the numbers for the output. When I press F9 I'd like the data to appear in the dream house lottery section with the information of the house that corresponds the Neighborhood and street. What I have in mind below.
If C21=B2,B8,B13 and C22=B3,B4,B5,B9,B10,B11,B14,B15,B16, Then values of E,F,G,H,I appear in E,E,G,H,I appear in the lottery dream house section.
So =IF(C21=B8),IF(C22=B11), ???? IF(C21=2) and (C22=3), Then This is where my problem occurs. I'd like my output to be that of E through I11 to appear in E through I21.
Is that possible and does that make sense. I have a long winded version but it requires the formula to be in each and every cell and it will only allow for one neighborhood at a time.
in cell d20 i have a contract date in cell d21 i have a lead time this will always be in the format eg(2-3 weeks) in cell d22 i would like it to tell me d20 plus the first number of weeks ( before the hyphen) and in d23 the second number of the weeksafter the hyphen
Here's what I'm trying to do hopefully you can help me.
1) Given value in Sheet 1: Column A, search for that value in Sheet 2: Columns A:C. Then output the value in Sheet 2: Column D of the same row, to Sheet 1: Column B
2) Same setup as above, but the same given value is found multiple times, then have say 1st value output to column B, second to C, third to D, and so on.
I have a function which either looks up a value on a spreadsheet or runs a sub. If it runs the sub, it should generate a list of figures which are output to a spreadsheet.
My function keeps crashing but I have found by stepping through it that is correctly decides whether to lookup a value or run the sub. It starts the sub correctly but when it comes to outputting information to the spreadsheet it crashes. I have lx_calc set as an array and I am using the following to output to a spreadsheet (lx_calc(20) is defined as 10000 and ImpFac and qx have already been calculated):
For i = 21 To 120 lx_calc(i) = lx_calc(i - 1) * (1 - (1 - ImpFac(i - 1)) * qx(i - 21)) Workbooks("Macro Ann Addin.xls").Worksheets("Mbr").Cells(i + 1, 1) = lx_calc(i) Next
I can't see why this doesn't work unless it is just that it doesn't like the fact it is looking at an array.
I am making a report that puts out a CSV file my trouble is that some of the numbers are converted to date when they are opened in excel. This report is sent out company wide and I need a way to keep the numbers from changing to date. I have added a tic(') mark to the front of the number but it comes over as '12308. What can I do.
attached spreadsheet. Notice cells A11 through B23.
Is there any third-party extensions, Macros or other functions that can output the dates and corresponding text (in column A) to a nice looking calendar, or even better yet to Outlook, or both?
I tried creating a pie chart or graph function, but non contain a calendar scheme.
Notice cell B7 is an input cell. This would determine the number of days the calendar would show in full. The begin date of the calendar would be in B11, and the last date on the calendar would be in B23. It could be a 30 day calendar, or more or less depending on the input.
For those "visual" people, a calendar format would be amazing, but I can't write a single peice of VB code, so I wouldn't know how to write a Macro.
I'm wondering if it's possible to use a button in excel where I can output a cvs file (from another sheet in the file) with just a click on that button.
I have a userform that employees use to enter production data every day. Originally I had this storing the data in excel, but now I would like it to put the data in tables in access.
Here is some code I am trying, but it's giving me an error: "Run-time Error '3251' Current Recordset does not support updating. This may be a limitation of the provider, or of the selected locktype."
VB: ' exports data from the active worksheet to a table in an Access database ' this procedure must be edited before use Dim cnt As New ADODB.Connection
I'm trying to accomplish the attached. This is just an example of what I want to do. There are no formulas in this spreadsheet.
Spreadsheet 1: Search by Number
Column A is a list of names
Column B is a list of numbers
Column C is a list of the names that correspond to the number "1" from Column B. Note that there are no blank rows between the names.
Spreadsheet 2: Search by Name
Column A is a list of names
Column B is a list of offices
Column C is a list of the names that correspond to office "Williams" from Column B. Note that there are no blank rows between the names.
I have used the index & match formulas to do this WITH duplicates or blank rows, but I would like to produce this without duplicates. I am willing to get as complicated as need be to make this happen.
how to consolidate file01 to file02 merging them, resulting the expected output sheet. Currently im doing this manually and it really take up a lot of my time this is just a sample scenario. My real world use of this is composed of over 2000+ accounts with different product purchases and billing numbers.
I need the output in B1 to be in multiples of the value in A1, rounded up.
example: Value in A1 is 6 random formula in B1: =IF(AND(N2>$AA$1,S2>0),ROUND((30/$AA$1)*AA2-Z2,0),IF(AND(N2>$AA$1,S2=""),ROUND((30/$AA$1)*AA2-Z2,0),IF(AND(N2<$AD$1,S2=""),ROUND((30/$AD$1)*AD2-Z2,0),IF(AND(N2<$AC$1,S2=""),ROUND((30/$AC$1)*AC2-Z2,0),IF(AND(N2<$AB$1,S2=""),ROUND((30/$AB$1)*AB2-Z2,0),IF(AND(N2=M2,N2<$AA$1,S2>0),ROUND(30*(AA2/N2)-Z2,0),IF(AND(N2<>M2,N2<$AA$1,S2>0),ROUND(AA2*(30/$AA$1)-Z2,0))))))))
So if the resulting value of my B1 formula is 2.33, I'd like to have the output be 6. If the resulting value is 14.55, I'd like the output to be 18.
I have a formula in sheet code to get a total of the following columns. The formula in these columns is not working. I'm not getting any error. The code is working fine without a require output.
