I have a column in my .XLS whose contents I want to change depending on what the contents of the cells of a different column are. However, I only want two cells from the same row to be dependent on each other. So, for example, if $A$1 reads "1" then $B$1 should read "apple" and if $A$2 reads "1" then $B$2 should read "apple"; if $A$12 reads "3" then $B$12 should read "pavement" etc.

what i need is to affect the contents of cell c3.
if i select cell e15 i would like cell c3 to read 123
if i select cell e17 i would like cell c3 to read 234
i believe this could be done using an cell formula if statment but due to teh number of cells i wish to have affect c3 a vba based solution would be required.
i've built an if satement to do this under worksheet activate but not sure how to use the worksheet change way
how to clear contents and change colour index of cells.
This is for a booking system. The current VB codes allows bookings to be made by entering a reference number, dates of bookings and room type and bed type. When the VB codes are executed, the cells corresponding to the details entered earlier, would fill the booking table with the reference number and change the colour fill (e.g. yellow) to indicate that the slots are booked. Please refer to attached sample.
However, I do not know how to delete the booking. I would like to assign a cell for user to enter the reference number that needs to be deleted. So when the reference number is entered into that cell, user could execute a function which will clear the contents and change the colour index to none for that particular booking with that reference number(s).
Attached is a sample of the problem.
I have a worksheey of data and i would like the tab to be a certain colour dependant on the the contents of a range of cells within that worksheet is that possible. i know i need to use VBA and it cna be done based ont he contents of one cell.
So for example i have a sheet of people i am awaiting payment from, based on the last column " bill paid" i want the tab to be Red if there are any blanks in this column/ range and go green when all the cells in the column/ range are filled with "y"
I wish to copy a merged cell (3 cells) based on if only 1 of 3 cells to the right contain "X". if the top cell does not contain "X" than the merged cell is not copied. Also, is therea more elegant to copy 3 columns at a time rather than do one at a time as my code shows:

I have a similar case but there are no empty rows between lists, what would be the formula to get the same results? (The transposed address should appear next to each first line of each block).
Earlier, I posted at http://www.excelforum.com/excel-gene...-one-cell.html and I got brilliant answers, I also would like to get benefit of the above mentioned formula but in cases when there are no empty rows between lists.
I am looking for a code that will clear all of my unlocked cell in sheet 1. That is not a problem but since many of the cells are merged I know it keeps throwing me an error saying cannot change contents of merged cells or something like that. Does anyone know how to get around this without unmerging the cells. I saw a code to unmerge all of the cells on a sheet but I really don't want to do this as I already have worked around most of my problems with the merged cells.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet that has columns stating both status and then further to the right in the row, currency totals. There are only two status options, Stocked and On Order. I need to add the total currency amounts based on this other column's listing and it must change if status changes.
(Put simpler:
Column A lists Stocked or On Order and Column B is the currency tied up in that row.
I need to make totals for the cells in column B based on the status listed in Column A and it must change when Column A is changed. This should result in two totals, one for Stock Status Currency and one for On Order Curreny)

ActiveSheet.Unprotect
'Range("B10,F10,H10").ClearContents ''*** if I run this part the excel crushes ***'''

In column A, i have cities.
In column B, i have dates.
I would like column D to have both the city and its corresponding date e.g. "paris (12/06/2013)"

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am working on a sheet where I want the contents of cells D1:D10 appear if cell A1 has a text in it and the contents of cells D1:D10 disappear if cell A1 is blank. What is the right conditional formatting formula for this.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a dropdown list in the range E17:E91 containing a list, and two of the values in the list are "DI" and "LTC". What I need to happen is if either of these are selected, the corresponding cell in column F needs to have it's contents cleared. Ex. if in E17 the value is ever either DI or LTC, cell F17 gets contents cleared. if column E contains ANYTHING ELSE, nothing happens. That's all, I've taken care of conditional formatting and data validation already. So even if data is pasted in the worksheet into column E it needs to recognize that and always act in real time.
View 14 Replies View RelatedI would like to do now would be to only copy the rows that also contain the word sold in column C. I guess that I could do this in two stages, first copying the rows based on the year then copy again based on the word sold in column C. It would be nicer to make a slight modification to my code and do it all in one step.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm using a macro to copy the results of a formula and paste the values only on another sheet. The result includes lots of "blank" rows. I have another macro to get rid of the empty rows and move the information up.
It's not working because the "blank" rows aren't empty. Even though I paste values only, experimentation shows that the cells that appear blank return a false to the ISBLANK test with a length of 0.
So now I think I need a macro to run after the pastespecial command to look for cells within a range with a length of zero and delete the contents of those cells, but leave alone anything with a length of >0.
I am brand new to the idea of using VBA, but I have successfully cobbled together some stuff and can usually modify things to work.
It seems I need to maybe use some sort of IF statement along with a LEN and ClearContents. I don't want to delete the blank cells, just make them truly empty so that all of my actual data stays where it should, and my delete empty rows macro works correctly.
I did a search and see some info on clearing contents of columns or rows, or clearing contents based on the content of other columns or rows, but I'm unsure of how to tell it to search each cell within a range and clear the contents of 0-length cells to make them truly empty.
this is my first post in this great forum. let me start talking about what I need, I used to convert some statement from PDF to XLS format for my work purpose. sometimes I am facing a problem that some text in the statement will come in more than one row, actually I need it to come in one cell but it is coming in several rows that mean, if I want to sort or filter my data, I will lose some important data. What do I want???
I want a macro to merge the contents of selected cells and put it in the first cell of the selected cells then clear the other cells. I will use this macro for the following cases: Case 1- assume we have this data in any sheet.
B1=How
C1=are
D1=you? ( all without any space )
after selecting the said cells and applying this macro, the result will be:
B1=How are you? ( one space only between the content of the selected cells )
C1=D1=empty
Case 2- assume we have this data in any sheet.
B1=How.........
I do not have excel or an xls for a sample, I will try and restate the question.
In Cell A1 It will be used for copying the contents of and pasting the completed information into web browsers.
In Cell A1 You will find This information contained and formatted in one cell alone.
Figure-1
A1=
Information About Company
Brief Story About Company
Product Name: (X)
UPC Number: (Y)
Serial Number: (Z)
Terms Of Sale
Etc
End Figure-1
I want to essential Modify (X)(Y)(Z) using different cells one for each variable. "All completed information will be found inside of A1"
Having Cell B1-B9 Being used as labels "Product Name" "UPC Number" "etc" and using cell C1-C9 to input variables for = (X)(Y)(Z)(ETC)
In reality from cell A1 will change dynamically, but some information will need to stay constant.
Every thing In B column will just be labels.
Every thing In C will be for variables.
I have a macro that imports results from a website.
