To Read A File And To Make Changes Using VBA

Aug 21, 2009

I have attached three excel files .....In the file called 'sampleBook1latest' I have a button called 'click here to clear a schedule' If I click that button and choose OR,start time and duration of a surgery then a schedule that is already created wil get cleared.....I have the total number of nurses and number of nurses used saved to the side of the sheet..... The total number of nurses at the side is read from another excel file called 'Input file for # of nurses'

Now the problem is that if clear a schedule then the number of nurses used is not getting updated at the side.....if I clear a schedule then the number of nurses at the side should also get updated....for example(If I create a schedule with 3 nurses and if only a total of 3 nurses are available then..... the used number of nurses for that specific time at the side will get updated to 3 from 0 and if I clear that schedule then the used nurses for that time should again become 0)....

The other problem is that if I schedule a surgery then all details of the surgery will be saved in another excel sheet called 'input file for patient details' so if I clear a schedule then all the details of that surgery saved in that excel sheet should also be cleared......

VBA To Read Text Formula And Related Constants And Insert As Formula Into Cell

Jul 30, 2014

I have a situation where I have to curve fit data, this can lead to different formulas being used with varying constants.

Is it possible to pickup a TEXT based formula and related constants from other cells, and then place this into another cell as a functioning formula. For Example

Cell A1 contains the formula as a text string whether it be y=a+bx+cx^2, or y=a+b/x, etc
Cells A2:A6 contain the individual constants, a, b, c, etc

I would then want the VBA to read the text based formula and put it into an output cell as a functioning excel formulae.g

In cell B10: =a+b*A10+c*A10^2

I understand picking the constants up and putting the formula should not be too much of an issue, however trying to insert the variable form of the curve fit is the part that I am struggling with, and am unsure if possible.

Pop Up Appear If A Persons Name Appears More Than Once

Jun 20, 2008

I would like to have a list of names in column A1 Smith, A2 Jones, A3 Johnson etc. Everytime someones name appears in E1-E20 I would like the adjacent column next to that persons name to turn red. Example: I type Smith in E14 -> B1 turns red. If it's not too complicated it would be good if excel could recognize the name in any font,capitols etc.

Lastly if I could have a pop up appear if a persons name appears more than once in column E that would be great. Example type Smith in E1 and then when I type smith in E4 pop appears--Name already used once do you want to continue?

File May Be Read-Only, Or You May Be Trying To Access A Read-Only Location

Jan 4, 2007

I'm trying to open a file on a network drive...but I'm getting the following error message when it opens: "This file may be read-only, or you may be trying to access a read-only location. Or the server the document is stored on may not be responding." Now, the file itself has no rights restrictions and is not read only. It doesn't appear to be locked.

Now, there are other Excel files in the same directory which I could open fine; however, the Excel documents having the above problem all have a little black icon "appears to be a padlock" (image attached) at the bottom left hand side of the Excel file icon. I tried the following:

- Renaming
- Converting to a different file format (didn't work, it won't let me)
- Opening in notepad...etc doesn't work.

This file is dated back in 2004...do you think it's corrupt? Is there anything i can do to open or recover this?

Formula That Can Read Row And Column Labels And Return Value?

Jan 30, 2013

I would like to know if there is any formula that can read this:

Measure1 Measure2 Measure3 Measure4
Facility1 10 15 11 18
Facility2 20 16 32 21
Facility3 9 18 17 13

All this is in one big table and I have around hundred columns. I wish to create one lookup table that will pull values out of this, on a separate worksheet. This is how my lookup table looks like:

Measure3 Measure8
Facility1
Facility2
Facility3

My raw labels will be complete and they should match with lookup table labels. I need to extract Measure3 and Measure8 for different facilities, depending if I have any data in there. The search criteria for column labels should be dynamic and if I change label for let's say Measure1 it would update for all facilities. What formula can read both raw labels and column labels and return value at the interesection of both these criteria.

Formula To Rank Text Objects Based On Numbers, Interesting Read

Dec 30, 2008

I'm attempting to create a formula that will find the name associated with a value, and return that name on the same column as that value in a later equation.

OK OK to illustrate it a little better:

There are three people: Bill, Ted, and Andy. Each one is ranked in Points, so my table looks like this:

A B

1 Bill 10
2 Ted 20
3 Andy 30

Later on, I want to rank the individuals based on their score, using a formula. Right now, I can rank the scores based using LARGE(B1:B3,1), then LARGE(B1:B3,2), and lastly LARGE(B1:B3,3). That ranks the numbers in descending columns. However, I want the information to automatically populate the name associated with that particular point total. So, I want the system to know that B1 is Bill's score, and rank it, in descending order, later on in the spreadsheet, with Bill's name.

How To Make MAX Formula Smarter

Jul 25, 2014

I'm currently using this formula to show the last date of a entry ie A15, on a 2 different worksheets, the forst worksheet always has a A15 entry and the 2nd worksheet currentmonth! sometimes has and entry.

=MAX(LOOKUP(99^99,currentmonth!A:A/(currentmonth!B:B=A15),currentmonth!A:A),LOOKUP(99^99,mainlogbook!A:A/(mainlogbook!B:B=A15),mainlogbook!A:A))

and if I don't have and entry in this section of the formula (LOOKUP(99^99,currentmonth!A:A/(currentmonth!B:B=A15) which sometimes I don't.

It yields a #N/A Error.

Is there a way to make this formula work if there is no entry of A15 on the currentmonth! worksheet?
