Highlighting Lowest Score Without Duplicates Highlighting And Counting Player Skins?
Feb 15, 2013I found this spreadsheet on here and I have been trying to customize it to what I need. I am trying to have scores from skins match highlighted. I want only the minimum score to be highlighted but if there is another duplicate minimum score I don't want it to highlight anything. I also need to find a way to count the skins won by each player and have it off to the side.
For those not familiar with golf a Skin is a game where you try to get the lowest amount of strokes on a specific hole. Ex- 4 people play the hole one. P1 scores 4, P2 gets a 3, P3 and P4 get 6. The skin would go to P2 who has the lowest score on that hole.
Highlight lowest number in each column not highlighting if there are duplicates starting at L6 down to L11 and for each column till AC. And the same for the group just to the right on attached file.
On row 13 and 14 it tells me who won a skin. I want to tally up the total skins won by each player. so if Joe's names shows up twice on R14 I want it to tell me somewhere in the sheet Joe = 2

Highlighting/Deleting Special Charahters In A Range
Aug 15, 2008I have a column that needs to be text format, but it needs to include only digits (0-9), no letters, no special characters. Also all cells need to have 7 digits.
I am trying to do a couple of things:
1 : Hightlight the cells that contain Strings with Non-Digits characters
2 : Highlight the cells with less than 7 characters (I have the code, it is below)
I have tried many ways to get #1 but I am stuck.
Help please.
This highlights the cells with less than 7 characters:
Sub StringLength3() ' IT WORKS!
Dim strTest As String
Dim i As Integer
Dim Cell As Range
'Select Range
Worksheets("tres").Activate
Worksheets("tres").Range("A2", Range("a65536").End(xlUp)).Name = "RangeA"
Range("RangeA").Select
For Each Rangea In Selection
i = Len(Rangea)
If i 7 Then
Rangea.Cells.Interior.ColorIndex = 7
End If
Next Rangea
End Sub
Ignoring Characters While Formula Looks For Value?
Apr 16, 2014I have stacked formulas that look for values via vlookup and index match functions.
Sometimes the worksheet will have ( 100 ) separated into 3 columns (open parenthesis, number, closed parenthesis) and the formula will pull the first column containing the parenthesis. How can I write the formula to ignore the "(" and get to the "100"?
The formula uses ISERROR to move forward, could I incorporate ISNUMBER also or is there a better way to do this?

Retaining Formatting And Special Characters
Sep 9, 2007I have created a multiple choice quiz maker that randomizes the questions and responses. This means that the quiz questions/responses must be copied and pasted each time a new quiz is generated. But in doing so, Excel loses formatting (such as super and sub scripting) and some special characters (like pi, alpha, the degree symbol).
Is there a way to get such things to copy properly from cell to cell, sheet to sheet, using Excel?

Replacing Special Characters When Importing Text
Jun 18, 2009I have inherited a spreadsheet that will prompt the user for a text file to import and it will split each line into different cells based on column widths. The problem is that one field can contain non-printable characters that are causing the macro to split the data into 2 lines.
I think one of the special characters is a new paragraph but there could be others.
I need help with replacing these special characters with a space prior to spliting the line into an array.
