Giving Letter A Numerical Value
Apr 2, 2014
I'm working on a spreadsheet and I want the letter "E" to have a numerical value of zero, and not necessarily in just place as my sheet will be regularly updated. If you're a fan of golf, you will understand what I am doing. I'm basically making a custom leader board for a fantasy golf game that I'm doing, and I'd like for the letter E to represent the value of zero when I am adding up the scores.
For example
A1: -1
A2: -3
A3: 4
A4: E
A5: -2
A6: 3
A7: 3
A8: -5
Total: -11 (have a formula set up to only count the best 4 scores).
I want to be able to add up those columns, and since only the lowest 4 scores count, I need E to equal zero. I get that I could just put 0 there, so I'm being a little picky (in golf E represents Even par, essentially a value of zero for the purposes of this game). There are 20+ teams in the game so I need E to be recognized as zero in each of those fields.

I am a teacher and I want a column to turn a particular colour if a pupil has met their target grade and another if they have not. Our grades work as letters A* being the best then descending as follows A, B, C, D, E, F, G, U.
I have a column with the pupil's target grade (one of the above letters) and another column with their current grade. How do I get excel to understand the ranking of the letters and format the current grade column according to whether they have met their target or not?

I have a formula that counts all instances of the letters a, b and c in a range and assigns them a value of 1 unless they are in the M column in which case a, b or c counts 4.
=SUM(COUNTIF(J2:AB2,{"a*","b","c"}),OR(LEFT(M2)={"a","b","c"})*4)
This worked well but now I need to modify the weightings across this range. My new goal is to count all instances of a,b and c in the range J2:AB2 but have M column a,b, c's = 2 and N:R column a,b,c's equalling 4. Letters other than a,b or c count as 0.
Example:
J2...K2...L2...M2...N2...O2...P2...Q2...R2...
A....B.....B.....C.....B.....D....B.....C.....E
the output of the above sequence should be
1+1+1+2+4+4+0+4+4+0 = 21

What would cause a pivot table to turn numerical data into a letter?
I have a field, cost center, that has about 15 different possible values in it that look like this: 141350, 141360, 141370, 141380, etc. When I compile the data into a pivot table and try to sort on pivot table everything looks normal, except that 141350 is returned as 'R'. If I change the value to anything else, it is fine, but as 141350 it's changes from numerical formating to a single letter.
I'm sure something was accidentally set to do that automatically.

I need to know if you can give a cell with text (such as a name) the value in a different cell (eg a total value cell).
Basically when the name is displayed I can add that cell to a team and therefore easily calculate a total teams worth by dragging names into the team's column.

For the below formula is it possible to replace the B's (column location) with a cell Say Z146 which contains the letter B (or a number if thats easier and someone can tell me the numbers for each column).
When the formula is dragged into the next cell (down) it takes its column reference from Z147 and then my life becomes so much easier.
=IF(INDEX('Overs-Unders'!B:B,MATCH($C145,'Overs-Unders'!$A:$A,0))"",INDEX('Overs-Unders'!B:B,MATCH($C145,'Overs-Unders'!$A:$A,0)),"")

I need to change a few hundred cells (one column) where the first letter may be a capital letter to a lowercase letter.
So:
GetAwardfromBid to getAwardFromBid
or
SmallLertter to smallLetter

I must be using hte wrong command or I am dumb.
Cell B8 I have a validation list of either Hub, Router, N/A
On cell C8 I want if (B8=Hub,3COM,0) but I get a NAME error. Is it because it won't work with letters but it can make the calculation?

Sheet 1 has 3 columns: grade, step, NBS
Sheet 2 has 3 columns: SM, grade, step
I want to add a column NBS to sheet 2 for that exact grade and step, from
the data on sheet 1.
I tried the following formula but it gives me #value!.
=INDEX(sheet1!$C$2:$C$6,MATCH(B2&C2,sheet1!$A$2:$A$6&sheet1!$B$2:$B$6,0),3)

This formula has been working fine for me...until I have the condition where no value >0 has been entered in my LOOKUP range as yet. Or at least that is what I have managed to test so far. I've verified that my values have the same format (General) and I've verified that my ranges are all of the same size.
I'm looking in one worksheet for a work order meter reading that will be entered in another sheet when the Unit # for the equipment matches. I discovered if there is a work order entered for and no meter reading has ever been recorded yet, I get the #N/A error. If I go in and put a fictitious meter reading in of 1, the error goes away. It doesn't like a blank or zero meter reading and I need to know how to get around this. Here's the current calculation:

I referred the above two articles and accordingly created Personal.xls file in XLSTART folder. Here is the screenshot: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/872430/excel.png I have done nothing else to the workbook except what is seen in the screenshot.
I have tested the funtion by using it as a formula in the Personal.xls file.
When I start Excel, Personal.xls does start up but the funtion is not available to my in my other workbooks. Is there anything that I have missed out?

I have a very large excel spreadsheet with many formulas in it. Some of the formulas are giving a 0.00 value even when there should be a $value. I don't know why this is happening? It is not happening to every formula and it is not consistant within the same row or even the same column. Most of these formuals have been used in this spreadsheet for years by many different people with no problems.

I noticed that when I clicked F4 Button on the keyboard it shows the screen resolution(with screen 1 and screen 2) as though one wants to use projector. The keyboard's configurations seems different from what I am used to.
What I can do to resolve this as I wanted to use the F4 Button referencing($).

I have a problem with isnumber giving me two different results. One time it will evaluate the following as true:
ISNUMBER(0)
and in the same sheet it will evaluate the same as false.
I need ISNUMBER to NOT recognise "0" as a number all the time.

I've got a Macro that generates three reports for me, one at a time.
After a report has been generated it creates an Email and attachs the report to the Email, I then check the report is ok before sending out.
The problem is, that once the first Email has been generated Excel is pushed into the background and the macro sloooooooows down.
I believe (though I will quite happily be wrong) this is because Excel is no longer the PC's main concern.
What I was wondering was, is it possible to bring Excel back to the foreground once the Email has been generated.

I have a CSE formula that's been working great since day one.
In B202 I have the name Magnecraft.
In Row9 I have all the possible sources for this item starting in D9:CB9.
The fx in C202 is as follows:
{=SUBSTITUTE(MCONCAT(IF(INDEX(D202:CC202,MATCH(B202,B202:B202,0),0)="X",","&$D$9:$CB$9,"")),",","",1)}
I have an "x" in E202 and I202.
C202 should then show (in this case) Abacus and A/E as the 2 sources available.
I'm getting an #NAME? error.
And if I insert a new row, all the data in each cell in C"C turns to #NAME?.

I was looking at the other posts and this should work. Why the bleep can't I get the MROUND function to work. Simple scenario...I need to round UP numbers to the nearest 50. 320 should bring back 350, 351 should bring back 400.
For example, if this is in cell A1, I think the formula should be =MROUND(A1,50). Yet everytime I use the function, it gives me NAME#.

Cell A3 on my SHEET1 has the following formula =DATE(YEAR(C1),MONTH(C1) + 1,DAY(C1). It goes on like this for the next 12 months (+2, +3, +4....).
Column B on my SHEET2 has One of the five product codes (A, B, C, D, E) and Column D on my SHEET2 has manually entered dates
I created the following condition for each product code under each month in SHEET1
=IF(MONTH(Sheet2!$D$1:$D$39)=MONTH(Sheet1!$A$3),COUNTIF(SHEET2!$B$2:$B$39,"=A"),"")
The formula only works for two product codes (A and B), and then yields blank cells.

I have a fomula field in row 67 and 68 .Row 67 calculates the average and row 68 calculates the improvement i.e. average(row 68)- last row inserted(row 67). The values for improvements are not showing correct value. C68 seems to give correct value but B68 and D68 is giving wrong value.
B68=4.8-4.5 =0.3 but it shows 0.4
C68=14.9-15.1=-0.2
D68=11.3-10.2=1.1 but it shows 1.0
I have attached the sheet also.

I am making a company wide estimate sheet and having trouble with the drop down box. I have a drop down to pick the branch, but when I name the source it only says branch, even though I named the data on the branch sheet. I would like to be able to pick the branch initials and have it populate the phone and fax number under the main heading but am getting a error there.
Also for the labor is it possible to have it insert the correct labor into the formulas at the labor lines according to which branch is picked from the drop down.

So I am using a macro to do a particular task. Part of the macro's process is to delete some unwanted rows.
The code below was for my original macro which works absolutely fine:
Note: The ranges are fixed (i.e. column "AT" is reffered)
Code:
Sheets(1).Select
Dim Current As Worksheet
Dim Flt As String
Flt = Me.TextBox2.Value
For Each Current In Worksheets
With Current
With .Columns("AT")
.AutoFilter field:=1, Criteria1:="
