Graphically Representing Activity Data
Apr 26, 2007
I have Activity data from my production line that details when a job is running "RUN" and when its on stop "SETUP". It looks like this:
Run 0.45 hrs (decimal hours)
Setup 0.1 hrs
Run 1.2 hrs
Setup 0.2 hrs
etc.
I want to be able to graphically present this against a fixed timeline, I have the timeline in a column, (not a row). I have cumulatively summed my times so I have this...
Run 0.45 hrs
Setup 0.55 hrs
Run 1.75 hrs
Setup 1.95 hrs
etc
However I want to be able to establish whether the job was ON RUN or SETUP at each interval of my timeline. For example: if my time line was in 0.01 decimal minute intervals, my chart would look like this:.................

I'm having a problem with getting a result from another workbook. The purpose is to extract information from a closed workbook representing data from a country (ie US.xlsm, UK.xlsm) into the open one (summary). I want to count the number of results in a column which are above a certain amount (in this case 100).
So this is my coding for getting this result
=SUMPRODUCT(--(('C:address[US.xlsm]Worksheet name'!$E$2:$E$30000)>100))
Which works no problem for getting the number of results in the E column above 100. my issue is that I want to be able to change the name of the country in a cell, and then get the results automatically from the relevant workbook. I've been using CONCATENATE for these purposes and EVAL (from MOREFUNC)... and I get #REF!
So if I split up the above coding into two cells "=" and "SUMPRODUCT(--(('C:address[US.xlsm]Worksheet name'!$E$2:$E$30000)>100))" (just to keep it simple) and then use CONCATENATE to combine them in a cell. Using EVAL on that cell gives me #REF!
I've tested SUMPRODUCT with EVAL and CONCATENATE on formulae like the one above which do not link to other workbooks, and they seem fine. and SUMPRODUCT and linking to a workbook also works fine in the first example.
So the problem is somehow coming from the combination of SUMPRODUCT, EVAL and accessing an external sheet.

I am created a very simple account plan for colleagues in my team which is proving to be very poular with the exception of one thing.
I created the plan which is around 30 sheets on my laptops highest resolution setting. 1400 x 1050. Only one other colleague has this res available so of course when the rest of the team open it, it looks huge.
I need help with this as I'm still very new to excel, although learning very fast!
My preference for finding a fix for this would be to insert a scroll bar on each sheet that, when scrolled, changes the zoom of the page between a range of 50% and 100%. This may not be the best way of doing it but I'm trying to make the sheets as simple to use as possible as some of my colleagues are only just compuetr literate, let alone excel competent!

I am trying to determine the best way to graphically show the results of a time/work study. Basically i have a list of tasks and each list has 2 sets of numbers assigned to it. One for how much time it takes on a scale of 1-3 and a second for how much value is added for the task, again on a scale of 1-3. I want to show some sort of graph/visual that shows the number of tasks as clusters (not name of task) in maybe quadrants. With the time on X axis and value on Y axis. I am envisioning something like a 9 box that would have low/low to high/high. I can only think to create a 9 box in excel and physically put circles(clusters) in each quadrant.

I am a complete newbie at Excel, but trying to set up a simple worksheet that I can use to save a lot of time. I have a list of names and each has a paper delivered each day.
Can I set it up to treat the name of the paper ie. Tel as a value ie. 0.35? and then have it total etc?

The times listed in column A are formatted as text.
When trying to add them using a simple SUM formula (=SUM(A2:A5)), a false result of 0 is returned.
How can we add text values correctly?
Solution:
Use the SUM and TIMEVALUE functions as shown in the following Array formula:
{=SUM(TIMEVALUE(A2:A5))}
To apply Array formula:
Select the cell, press

I have a very large spreadsheet with financial information I am trying to graph on a line graph (which I know how to do). I would like to take only the last 48 months of activity and graph that. Is there a formula I can use to select only the last 48 months without reselecting the data everytime?
Example (for simplicity purposes in this example I only want ten months of data
Jan Feb March April May June July Aug Sept Oct Nov Dec
10 12 14 10 9 12 11 12 12 10 9 13

I have a user form with several command buttons.
Is there a way to show that excel is calcutaing when one of the command buttons is pressed?
The button starts a series of calculation that take a while to complete.
It would appear to other users of my spreadsheet that excel or the user form is not functioning correctly.
It would be neat if there is a way to show a % complete bar. but a simple graphic or text will also work.

I run an activity group wherby members have to complete various events such as swimming, cycling, climbing etc..
I have a worksheet that comprises of columns A - P
Column A = Members Name
Column B = Address Info
Columns C - P equals the activities
As each member completes an activity a marker (the word "DONE") is placed in the relevant column C - P
This results in several records being created for each member with a single entry in one of the columns C - P.
I want to consolidate the data into a single row showing the activities completed for each member
The data is sorted by column A brining all like records together
So if the name in the current row = the name in previous row then move entries in columns C - P up one row then delete the current row.

I sit possible to run a macro that will record email activity from an Outlook inbox and store it in a Excel file. For example, the date received and the subject line for every email that comes into an inbox would be logged.

I've never worked with Excel macros prior to today. I'm working on this for a friend.
I've got this sheet that's going to a web address, importing a table from the page, and making a line graph of the data. I got all that to work fine (after a lot of trial and error). Now I've got the data, and I want to make a scatter plot of it...
Here's the thing. I want each month of the data represented as a line on the plot.
This is hard to explain. It looks like this:
[url]
So from there, I want a loop to scroll through the dates and select a range that represents January, a range that represents February, etc, so I can save those ranges as variables and make a scatter plot with 12 curves on it.
Here is the code I have so far, in case you want to see it, not sure why you might need to though.

I have this table that I put together everyday describing the activity of my department. There is the date displayed as "Num-Date", the day of the week and multiple columns of data. Every day I have to add a new row and update the date, and the data, etc. I have a macro that inserts a new row and auto-updates the date and weekday, I also have a web query set up to fetch the data I want and display it right next to the table, but what I want to do is make the table more intuitive and automated.

I am recording attendance to our various activities as follows (screenshot):
Column A show the activity
Columns B onwards show attendance by day of the week (names gathered from list).
Now I've got a simple formula =COUNTA(Sep!B4:AE51) to count the total attendance for the month, modifying the range to cater for each activity, but it would be better if I could keep the range the same and modify the activity.
Also, I would like a formula to show the attendance at each activity by the day of the week (ie to show the total and average attendances for Mondays or Tuesday etc).

Is it possible to create a drop down menu where additional information can be added then tallied up in a separate table?
I would like to create a menu representing "tasks" where an amount of "time" can be designated per menu for my employees to select and fill. I would like this information to then be tallied elsewhere so I can keep track of our efficiency.
I've attached the excel file to give a better idea of what I'm trying to accomplish.

I have a spreadsheet whereby process activities can be attributed to the different staff members who complete the activity. Each activity is on a different row and up to three staff can be assigned to each activity, so for example if a level one employee sorts the mail on four out of five days per week I would attribute 80% contribution to the task to the level one employee. If a supervisor sorts the mail on a Friday I would allocated a 20% contribution to that staff group.
My question is how do I prevent someone filling in the spreadsheet from allocating a combined contribution above 100% to any task. This could be for example either putting a number in greater than 100% into one of the allocation columns or a total across up to three different columns above 100%.
The columns where I assign the percentage contribution are E,H and K. I would like to generate an error which says something like 'Cumulative staff contribution per process activity cannot exceed 100%.

I am trying to sum up the total number of hours consumed on a particular activity within a specified period.
=SUMPRODUCT(($C38:$C176>=$B7)*($C38:$C176<=$C7)*($B38:$B176=$D5))
Unfortunately, the formula above gives me the total number of activity and NOT the total number of hours within a specified period. I attached the file I'm working on as reference.

I import data from my works server and dates are represented in text. example text format is yyyymmdd/19790310. What I'm trying to do is add and subtract from this date. I was trying to utilize formula and havent got close. I have a couple of parameters:
In column L I would like to represent the following
if column "B" is "A" add 38 years to column "J" dates are represented as TEXT
if column "B" is "B" add 35 years to column "J" "
if column "B" is "C" add 30 years to column "J" "
if column "B" is "d" add 30 years to column "J" "
Column "M" I would like to find the difference in column "L" and "C" I know days will be difficult it can be represented in years and months only.
I have no preference on whether I use VBA or a formula but have failed on on formula and was attempting to use VBA Case method but no success. I have 10000 rows of information and am open to any ideas attached an example of my data.

I have a column line chart to which I add data monthly and then have to manually update the "source data" to reflect the added data on chart. This is a rolling graph, which mean that I have to remove data for one month(from last year) and then include the new month's data. Is there any way on automating this process...like a macro or something, so once I add the data excel automatically removes one month of old data and make changes to include fresh data. Eg Currently chart is based on data from A2:F2 and I add new data to cell G2. I need something which automatically update the source data to cell B2:G2.

I have one source spreadsheet, where are columns NAME, DATE. I read these data by ADO to other spreadsheet, where I can change/delete data and then run macro for update data in source spreadsheet. The problem: In source spreadsheet is column "NAME" and column "DATE", with values e.g. "Joseph"; 1.1.1980. I read this data to other spreadsheet, then I delete in it value 1.1.1980. When I run macro Update, it messages error.
Sub UpdateItem
...
.Fields.Item(1).value = activecell 'activecell value = "Joseph"
If Not isempty(activecell.offset(0,1)) Then
.Fields.Item(2).value = activecell.offset(0,1).value
Else
.Fields.Item(2).value = "" 'I tried Empty and 0 too but when I read data again then, it displays 0.1.1900, nothing works
End If
...
End Sub
It seems that in source spreadsheet has data in column "Date" format Date and when I try to update data in format String ("") in source spreadsheet by Update macro, it messages error. When I used
.Fields.Item(2).Value = Empty
' or
.Fields.Item(2).Value = 0
after rereading data it displays 0.1.1900 What I want to get is that if the cell with date (in other spreadsheet) is empty, the cell in column Date in source spreadsheet after updating will be blank (contains no values).

I am trying to create a user form that will allow the user to type int values in boxes. Then when the user clicks the submit button the code needs to add the values from each user input box to the existing values in specific cells accross multiple worksheets. Then the form needs to be cleared after the cell values are updated. I can create the form it is the code on the submit button i am lost on. Also it is important that some boxes may be left blank.
If you click the Grey "Qty Form" button on sheet1 the form will open. User data numbers can be entered in the blank boxes. When the submit button is pressed the form needs to add the user entered numbers to the numbers in the corresponding cells in sheet 1 and sheet 2. How to code the submit button to do this properly. Also after the data on the spreadsheet is updated the form needs to be cleared and start the cursor back in the Item 1 box on the form.

- I have total of 13 sheets in a workbook - 12 sheets represent 12 months with data; 13th sheet is single sheet in which i would like to get complete overview of 12 months
- each of 12 sheets has actually sales results for multiple products with following data: internal code, manufacturer part number, name, and qty sold in that month
- situation is that some products have been phased out during the year and some were introduced so each sheet is slightly different in terms of in which row certain product is located
What i would like to achive is to make 13th sheet (whole year overview) do the following:
- there is a list of all the products in it, each product has unique internal code - this code (from each line) should be used to find that code in each monthly sheet, then find its monthly sales value (copy it) and paste it in sheet 13 in cell that represents this product and particular month.
In other words i would like to see for each product what was monthly sales throughout this year, but avoid manually filling in qty for each product per month.

I have attached a sheet that has part of a data list, sheet called (Full Data) what i am trying to do is seperate the data into event locations into individual sheets.
The data ref will be column F which is the different event locations.
I thought the best way to try and do this was to create an if/ match formula using the sheet tab names as the if match, with the event locations in column F.
I have added two sheet tabs so you can see that i require the data for (Ain) to be put into the Ain sheet.
The data list in Full Data sheet will be continuously updated so i will need the range to be around 10,000 entries.

I am attempting to create a macro to generate emails based on data in a sheet. The goal is to run the Macro, and have it generate emails to send to contractors letting them know what they are going to be paid. For instance:
Name in Column J
Email in Column L
Memo in Column N
Balance in Column T
Due Date in Column P
Week Ending Date in Column H
Now what I would like to happen, is to tie a macro into a button that will create the email as follows:
To Field: Email address from Column L
Subject: "Company Payment Remittance Payment Date *Date from Column P*"
Body: Hello *Name from Column J*,
For *WE Date in Column H* you will be paid *Balance from Column T* for the time worked of *Memo in Column N*
Now the tricky part is that I want the email to contain all line items for each email address. So instead of sending one email per line, have the macro automatically put all of the information that needs to be sent to one email address into the message. I don't know if that is possible, but it sure would make my life easier if it was.
I have attached a sample workbook of the data that will be used
Example Workbook for Email Macro.xlsx
