Having Two Date Return Number But Exclude Negative Numbers
Dec 18, 2013
I'm trying to figure out a formula to use that will exclude negative numbers. I have two dates. I'm trying to find the difference between the two dates assuming there is a date in the first column. At times there will be a situation where the date in A1 is before the date in A2 and it returns a negative number. I'd like to return a blank if there is a blank cell in column A and also return a blank if the return number is a negative.
Example:
A1 = 1/15/2013 B1= 1/10/2013 C1(formula) =IF(A1="","",(A1-B1) C1 will then reflect 5
A2 = (cell is blank) B2= 1/18/2013 C2 (formula) =IF(A2="","",(A2-B2) C2 will then reflect a blank cell
A3 = 1/5/2013 B3 = 1/15/2013 C3 (formula) =IF(A3="","",(A3-B3) C3 will then reflect -10
I'm trying to figure out a formula that would also allow C3 to reflect a blank cell since the formula returns a negative.
and I want all the negative number at -21 and down to be changed into -20 and all other numbers higher then -20 or whole numbers to be left alone.
So numbers -21 -22 -23 -24 .... -36 -37 -38 .... -45 -46 etc are all changed into -20 and all other numbers like -19 -18 -17 -16 .... 0 1 2 3 4 etc are all left alone.
I tried using the filter tab and couldn't see. I tried the replace key but that took to long changing each and every number from -21 all the way back to -99.
Is there an easier way to change all negative numbers in a specific zone of numbers (-21 thru -99) into one simple number so -21 would change into -20 and -22 would change into -20 and -23 would change into -20 etc etc etc.
a spreadsheet in Excel. I have names with scores. Then I have the winning score. I need a formula to find the score closest to zero and to display the name of the winner.
Ex: Names A1:A4 and Scores B1:B4. Winning Score in B6 and list name in B7. Ana 16 Bob 2 Charles 8 David 11
Winning Score 10
Answer should be 11 which is David, since David is only -1 away compared to the others.
I have a problem with a sumproduct formula which check one coloumn for negative numbers and another for a date so that it count all cases of negative numbers in a month i choose. (S contains numbers and AH contains dates)....
When i use it in a makro i get a "type mismatch" when i run the macro. I wonder if anyone can see where my syntaks is incorrect? Here is how it looks in the macro:.....
I have numbers in range B1 to B100. How do I search for the first negative number (not the smallest negative number) within the range? Then, retrieve the Date indicated along A1 to A100?
I have a large dataset (24000 rows) that requires me to multiply two different columns of integers. In some cases, the two integers are both negative and multiplying them results in a product that is positive. I actually need that product to be negative rather than positive. I can't quite seem to figure out the best way to accomplish this.
I have data that comes from a subsytem that places the negative sign at the right of the number, so it is recognized as text. I can get around this using find and replace and then a second step to multiply that by -1, but is there a formula that can do this for me?
I want to get a return value of date in column C whereas column A represent a date and column B represent a number. Simplest formula in excel is Column C (Feb 26, 2014)= Column A (Feb 21, 2014) + Column B (5). I want it to have in macro code.
I have a range of cells (D10:D20) with numbers in them. I need cell A10 to look at D10 and return a specific number based on a set of criteria.
The same thing would go for A11:A20 & D11:D20.
If the number in D10 is 1-2 then A10 needs to display 0 If the number in D10 is 3-8 then A10 needs to display 0.1 If the number in D10 is 9-14 then A10 needs to display 0.2 If the number in D10 is 15-20 then A10 needs to display 0.3
Once I have that formula I know that i will just highlight A10 and drag the formula down through A20.
I have a column of variances, these contain both negative numbers and positive numbers. I want to gather a sum of all the negative numbers and positive numbers separtely. Basically saying all the positive overeages = this amount And all the negative shortages = this amount. you can see the attached sample.
Usually this question is asked the other way around, but I have a somewhat unique problem. A certain website gives out tables filled with numbers. Positive numbers show in black font and negative numbers show in red font, but unfortunately, negative numbers do not include the minus sign -- the font is red and that's it!
I need a macro (or any other solution) that will turn the red font numbers to negative ones and would possibly format the cell to show negative numbers in red (I guess the last part is easier). The main problem is searching for the red font numbers and turning them negative.
I need a formula that calculates the values of 5 seperate cells located in different places throughout my sheet. The value will either be numerical or display a text value (normally "RD"). If it displays text I do not want that value counted. So it literally just totals the number values.
I have a speadsheet where I have a cell that reads a named range via OFFSET. The range consists mainly of numbers but a few cells contain the text UL (Unlimited)
The cell that "reads" the OFFSET is then used in another cell where it is multiplied by either 2 or 3 depending on user input.
The problem occurs where the cell attempts to multiply the text "UL" which results in "#VALUE!" How can I have this cell with the multiplication bypass the multiplication and simply return the text "UL" in the case of reading text from the named range.
column a has dates & column d has values - what is formula to find highest number in values and return it's date (using =large(Dxx:Dxxx, 1) to find highest number
I have column A with a bunch of dates (in order) Column B has the number of support calls. I can find the Highest number of calls no problem using MAX(B:B) How do I then return the date that that number occured? I know its a lookup / match / offset thing but like I said my brain has frozen .
I am using Excel 07 with Vista, and creating a spreadsheet in which users will be inputting a record into every row.
There is a row that requires a number to be entered, where some of the numbers will begin with 0 or 00 or even 0000. I want to make sure no-one incorrectly enters a letter, however with data validation set to whole numbers, it formats the cell to change an entry of "005667" into just "5667". There is no set length for the field.
The only way to have "005667" is the change the column to text, but then obviously that defeats the whole purpose!
I am using the MONTH function in a formula. The Month value of an empty cell is returned as "1". Why is this? Is there any way to return a null value or zero?
I'm writing a macro that will import data from one workbook to another, based on yesterdays date. I have the import functionality working, and I've been playing all afternoon, but I can't find a way to find yesterdays date in a range and use that row number as the row offset value in this line:
Rather than having a set row offset value (in this case, 14) I would like to use the find function to lookup yesterdays date in range "B50:B80" in the worksheet I've designated as "sh1" and return the row number of the cell that has yesterdays date and use this value as the row offset value, replacing the hard coded 14 that is in there currently. The date values in the range are formatted as per Date Format.jpg.
I go negative in one column I want it to show up in the next column as a positive number because when I add my income and subtract my bills and the negative from last month to get the what cash I'll have left it screws up because negative subtract a negative is a positive. So how do i get the sum of say B9 to from -$5.00 to +$5.00 into C4 so when i subtract C4 From my income it wont add to it.
I am trying to create a schedule that includes weekdays only. Is there a formula or set-up step to do that?
Currently I have 3 columns: Start date Action date Finish date
The Action date column has the formula: that cell (say C4) minus number of days that action requires (say 10), but when 10 days fall on a weekend, I need to change to the next work day instead.
