I have sheet that is populated with data daily. I wish to create graphs from information contained within a table in this sheet where i can select the start date and end date of the graph possibly from a drop down menu. I will be creating multiple graphs and wish for them all to change when i select the time period.
View 9 RepliesI have a graph / time problem
I have a program that is spitting out raw data to me that I would like to be able to put into a graph form in a efficient manner, but I’m not sure the best way to accomplish this.
Here is what I’m working with:
I am getting a list of time date stamps that appear as follows.
11/30/2006 6:02:25 AM
11/30/2006 6:02:36 AM
11/30/2006 6:02:40 AM and so forth.
Each stamp represents a hit to a link.
What I would like to be able to do is graph the number of hits per hour verse the time of day hit. Showing the time on the x & the number of hits per that hour on the y axis.
I can convert the time to decimal, but I still need to find a way to get excel to graph the sum of hits per hour.
I have a protected worksheet. Users wish to be able to track changes in the input cells. The suggested approach for this is to temporarily disable sheet protection and allow them to change the font color, then protect afterwards. What I would like to do is:
i) check whether they are in an input cell
ii) if so, then prompt the user with the 'Font Color' dialog box
iii) apply the font color selected to the input cell
I'm struggling to find the dialog box I need. I can launch the one to change the interior color, no problem (Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPatterns).Show). But that's no use to me, I just want a color palette that specifically relates to the Font Color
I have thousands of timestamps that have a start & end date and time in 2 separate columns. (one named start and one named end...)
I also have numerous set time periods that i'm interested in.. (about a dozen or so)
for example 01/01/2008 - 05/01/2008, 07:30:00 - 10:00:00
What i need is to be able to count the number of times the full time period i am interested (07:30:00 - 10:00:00) in falls in between the thousands of start and end timestamps i have. The time periods must also fall within the date range specifed.
So if my timestamps were
Start: 01/01/2008 06:30:00 & End: 02/01/2008 11:00:00, based on the set time period above, there would be a count of 2
and if my timestamps were
Start: 01/01/2008 07:05:00 & End: 02/01/2008 09:00:00 there would be a count of zero as there is not a full uninterupted timeperiod 07:00:00 - 10:00:00 between these timestamps.
and if my timestamps were:
Start 01/01/2007 07:00:00 & End 02/01/2007 10:00:00 the count would be zer as this is a year early!
I want to return a value based on once off time related data which is captured at 4 time periods throughout a day. I have another set of data which does not line up with this data but I want it to return the value closest earliest value.
Given this data:
27-6-14 3:00 12
27-6-14 7:00 18
27-6-14 11:00 19
If I have a time like 27-6-14 5:00 I want to return a value of 12 (Previous time). How would this be possible?
This code help me in typing the date and time in any cell of column (B) automatically just in case I enter somthing in any adjacent cell of column (A)
View 6 Replies View RelatedHow do I convert 7.30 hours into 7.21 (ie 7 hours 21min.) Note I do not wish
to use the standard hour:minute formatting.
Calculate certain time increments for various work-shifts. I have a start time,finish time and increments of time across the spectrum of 24 hours. There are also multiple start time across the 24 hour period with some start times begining on one day and ending on the next day.
Example
In B5 Startime is 22:00
In C5 Finishtime is 06:30
In I3 increment begins at 00:00
In I4 increment ends at 00:30
The employee working the shift from 22:00 - 06:30 would fall into the time increment of 00:00 - 00:30 where another employee working a different shift (08:30 - 17:00) would not. I'm looking for a formula that would return a 1 in a cell if the employee fell into the 00:00 - 00:30 time increment and a 0 in a cell in the employee did not fall into the time increment.

I've searched a few of the posts here about freebies in terms of adding a trial period to your spreadsheet. I'm just starting to get into VBA programming (beginnner), but I was wondering if anyone here could suggest actual programs or add-ins that I could buy that would allow me to create a trial version of my spreadsheet? either by allowing the user to use it for a few days or to allow the user to use it for a specifed # of times.
I'm willing to pay for this, but I can't afford those expensive Licensing/Copy protection programs....I need a simple solution in between $20 and $60....
If C2 = 21/06/14
I need F2 to highlight when 60 days have passed from the date entered in C2.

I want to assign a macro to a button that will unhide a tab for about 10 seconds, then rehide it and navigate to another tab. How do you do timed commands?

Private Declare Sub Sleep Lib "kernel32" (ByVal dwMilliseconds As Long)

I have a in field column M of my table that gives the week number of various dates within the table.
I would like to find the high value reached during each week based on the Highs which are located in column P, the highs consist if workdays during each week number.

I have an Access database, with a table of jobs processed.
One column for Job ID (Unique), Date it was processed, By Who it was processed and Comments ascoiated.
I need to chart a graph of Jobs over a period of time. How many jobs done per date. In excel preferebly, I have programs like Database Plus for excel. And I am familiar with VBA. I can't figure out how to uniquely sort how many jobs for each date. As there are numerous job entries for on the same dates. I think it can be done with an SQL query or sorting it with VBA somehow. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Or can anyone suggest an application designed for charting with Access databases in Excel?
compare two lists of data in order to identify the possible matches considering date&time and the location stored in different columns as shown in the example file attached. The range of date and time for the comparison is one hour, but it can be changed...
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am a flight instructor and legally we cannot work more than 8 hours in any consecutive 24 hour period. I'm trying to create a spreadsheet that will calculate the totals from that 24 hour period for me.
Right now I have something that sort of works, but not the way I would like it. I have a column for "time" that has the date and ending time of the flight and I am using that as if the total flight occurred at one moment (the ending time).
So, for instance let's say I did these flights
1: 8AM-10AM (2 hours, clocked at 10AM)
2: 11AM - 2 PM (2 hours, clocked at 2PM)
3: 7AM-9AM the following day (2 hours, clocked at 9AM)
If I have my formula calculate the time for 9AM the following day (totaling the past 24 hours) the first flight won't be included in the calculation since the hours from that flight is only imputed at 10AM. The formula would read 4 hours rather than the (actual) 5 hours.
Here is my workbook : 8 hour calculator sample.xlsx
Here are the formulas I am using
The time is formulated at date and time, with time being the ending flight time
The start time for the calculation is
[Code]....
end time is just =NOW()
Total calculation is
[Code] .....
All I'm trying to do is use the totals under "flight start" and "flight end" instead of the end flight time I had to put in under the date column.
We have one shared excel workbook and it is used by many people (more than 20 simultaneously), is there any way to auto save & close the workbook (session) if a user is inactive for specified time.

View 13 Replies View RelatedI'm opening a workbook and then running the macro in the workbook. The problem is I would like to build a "timeout" feature if the macro is running too long (as some of the macro's this will run can take days to complete) but I don't know how to run the macro asynchronously. Also I need to know if i can get it to run asynchronous is there an event that will tell me when the process is finished. The calling application of the macro is written in VB6 and opening excel workbooks to run the macros out of. also the "timeout" feature must be done from the VB6 application it cannot be edited into the the workbooks containing the macro.

View 9 Replies View RelatedHow to create a formula to determine the longer period of time between two date calculations and enter the longer period of time in the cell.
My Spreadsheet:
Cell M2: Birthdate (entered in cell as 11/1/2004)
Cell J2: Last date of service (entered in cell as 10/31/2011)
Cell G2: Calculation to enter the longer period of time between (M2 (year) + 21) and (J2 (year) + 7)
Example using information from above:
2004 + 21 = 2025
2011 + 7 = 2018
2025 is the result I want added to G2
If there is any way to include the month/year in G2 that would be ideal.
I am trying to make a line graph showing the gradual rises and falls in profit over a period of time, when I use the data and click line graph normally, it will plot each bit of data individually rather than gradually, for example;
13-Sep-13GBP 1,107.57
18-Sep-13GBP 6,432.74
21-Sep-13-GBP 477.71
22-Sep-13GBP 19,664.65
23-Sep-13GBP 1,604.88
If I tried to plot the above data, the graph will not show a gradual rise but instead will show a value of £1604.88 on the 23rd of September when instead I would want the chart line to be at £29,287.55 (The total).
I need to determine a formula which will allow me to calculate a future date based upon a current date with varying time periods.
For example:
I have a bill which is paid on the 15th and last business day of each month. I would like to be able to see the next due date regardless of what day of the week it is.
I have a bill which is paid every other Tuesday. I would like to know the next due date without having to enter +14 for every due date in the future. In other words, it is preferable to be able to open the spreadsheet and automatically see the next due date, not use autofill to repeatedly add +14 to a previous date which would limit the # of future due dates that could be calculated.
I have a bill which is paid on the last business day of each month, not the last Friday of each month. I would need excel to return a value for the last day of the month which = Monday-Friday, regardless of what day of the week it may be as long as it isn't Saturday or Sunday(holiday exclusion would be nice but not required).
I'm working on a dynamic payroll spreadsheet that will automatically calculate the overtime worked in a week. Right now, I'm running into a snag. My issue is with the formula in Column R. Right now, as shown below, it is doing the calculation based on regular hours minus 40 to determine the OT time. The snag is very messy and it lay in this: while the row by row calculations for total overtime worked for the week is correct, the sum at the bottom is very much off. I need an accurate method to sum the hours of overtime for the given column.
Here are the guidelines for the pay periods and overtime:
1. The pay periods for the month go from the 1st to the 15th and the 16th to EOM (End of Month). This means that the pay period could end on any given day of the week. More on this in a moment.
2. A work week is defined as Sunday to Saturday.
3. Overtime is calculated based on the rule of anything over 40 hours in a given work week.
4. Holiday hours worked do not count towards the 40 hour mark in granting overtime since Holiday pay is automatically overtime.
If it were just a matter of a bi-weekly (every 2 weeks) pay period, I would simply state =IF(weekday(DATE)=7,Hours_Worked - 40,0), and tag a SUM(range) at the bottom. Unfortunately, with it being a semi-monthly (twice a month), the end of the pay period could be a Wednesday, so a reference to day of the week won't work unless the formula can dynamically determine which set of data to evaluate.
I'm completely willing to toss out the current method of determining overtime. This is the calculations sheet that references a cleanly formatted and designed time card on a tab called "Time Card", so this isn't the full workbook. In fact, once the whole thing is done, this calculation sheet will be hidden.
Columns M and N (which are formula referenced in Column P) are basic End - Start calculations and were hidden to simplify the display as well as the number of formulas displayed.
Column L (formula referenced) is a Yes/No display for if the date in question is holiday pay.
