I need to build a calculator that sums cells. I want to be able to manually plug in the start cell and end cell into different cells then have the calculator return me a number.
Start Cell
D1
1
End Cell
D3
2
3
Calculated Value
=sum(D1:D3)
4
5
Now if I change the text in B2 from "D3" to "D5", the calculated value should change as well. Is there even a way to do this in excel?
I have the following formula that is supposed to grab a value from C2 and check for that value in a range of cells and if it matches it is supposed to display the corresponding value in another range of cells. What am I missing??
=IF(C2='Google Doc'!$B1122:$B1266,"'Google Doc!K1122:K1266'","Not OK")
I have a list of text quotes in column A. I then have column B which will have a Y entered if the quote is used in a presentation. I currently have around 100 quotes.
On a separate sheet, I want to be able to effectively say in one cell - If column B has text in it, copy the quote from column A. But the difficult part is how do I make this happen so that I can have multiple quotes being pulled into one cell?
what i would like to do is change the fill colour of D68 if the word Air appears with in D5:D65?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI need to create a formula that will give me True or False if text in a cell matches any cells in a range.
For example:
Column A and B have text:
Account
Date
Name
Species
Column C has other and sometimes matching text:
Name
Deal
What formula would I use to find out if all cells in Columns A and B are represented in Column C?
I try to write the function that gets some "ref" and returns appropriate item.
For example: if I give to function "C3", it returns "AAA"
if I give to function "R18", it returns "BBB" (cause it between R15 to R26)
if I give to function "R9", it returns "BBB" also.
Trying to create a button that, once clicked performs the following task:
Checks whether the text in a cell in the column X2:X40 matches the text in a cell in the Range A2:U14.
If it does, the formatting of the cell in X2:X40 (eg background) must change to match that of the corresponding cell in A2:U14.
Only 1 cell in the range will match 1 cell in the column
For example:
Before click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a clear background
During click:
matches these cells
changes X4 so that it also has a yellow background
After click:
Cell A9 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
Cell X4 has "John" written in it and a yellow background
What I want to do is Average out a range of cells "F4:F343". That's the easy part =average(F4:F343). However I want to exclude any numbers for that average if data in coloumn "Q" = "FMC"
Would that look anything like:
=average(F4:F343)/countif(Q4:Q343, "<>FMC")
I'm also displaying it as minutes in a day so i added *24*60 to the end of the formula and formatted to Number/.00. I've entered the formula and it will calculate but when i enter FMC to the appropriate area the average wont change.
I have four cells that contain text. All have connected check boxes with TRUE FALSE.
I need to be able to select anyone one of these cells with a check box, and have it's text appear in one separate cell eg: A1.
I have no issue connecting check boxes etc. I have no issue reproducing the text from any of these cells into multiple cells with a check box. But they have to be selectable and reproducing in one cell only (eg"A1").
I have some text in a cell, which is longer than the width that I am going to make that cell. When I don't wrap the text, it cuts it off at the end of the cell.
Since each column represents a day in a calendar, it would be incorrect to merge the two cells, but I don't want the text hidden, since I need to print the final product.
It is non-numeric text, and i've pasted --> values to remove formula issues.
I am trying to auto-populate text in cells in area A, based on data I enter into other cells in area B. I want the area A cells to be for display only, as all editing will be done in area B. The problem is: how do I do this such that the text I write does not get cut off if is longer than the column width? See the attached document for a clear example and description of what I am trying to do...
Excel Q.xlsx
I want to know how to display part of a cells text value, inside another cell.
Suppose in cell A1 i have "20-Jun-14"
How would I get cell B2 to display just "Jun"?
I have an Excel sheet set up with 6 columns: Col A contains a user-entered date.
Cols B-E each contain a drop-down that the user can set to 1 of 4 options.
Col F (I want) to show a date based on Col A & the results of the drop-downs.
The drop-downs contain (in order of importance): "Immediate","Urgent","Routine" and "None". If any of them are set to "Immediate", the date in Col F should be Col A date+2 days, if any set to "Urgent" it should be Col A+14 days, any set to "Routine" it should be Col A+28 days and for None the field can remain empty. I can enter a formula in F2 that checks for B2's drop-down as follows:
I am looking to set up an excel doc with 2 sheets.
In sheet 1, I am would like to be able to enter a series of words of interest/criteria to be met (in column D).
In sheet 2, I would like to paste in the text from an individual's CV. The text would be entered en masse, meaning that some cells would be empty and others would have whole sentences/paragraphs of text.
I would like a formula to enter in column A of sheet 1 which would search all of the cells in sheet 2 for the word/words in column D of sheet 1 and return either a positive or negative value.
I had tried the following:
=(COUNTIF(Sheet2!1:1048576,Sheet1!D2)>0)
This formula, however, is not capable of extracting the desired text from a string/sentence, and so only returns a positive result if the desired text is in a cell by itself.
How can I sum all the values in a range of cells where the cells contain either a number or text and a number. Please note the following example?
C17=9
D17=4
E17=8TD
F17=3TP
G17=7
I want the total of 31 but excel will ignore the cells with text.
I have some text I wish to add some content to the front and back of it. i.e. the text in the cell is "214.212.134.62" and I want to add "http://" to the front of it and ":9999" to the back to it, so it looks like "http://214.212.134.62:9999" in a different cell.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to search within cells A4:F25 for "B71 - Brown" and show the number that is in the cell below this text. If there is multiple cells with "B71 - Brown" I would like the cell to show the total.
So for example,If the formula was looking for "B71 - Brown" in the cell it would show 8136. (A13+A21+D25+E17). If i changed it to "Lavender" it would show 2380. (C5)
Also this data is linked from several other sheets and the values i search for will change and will need to update.
How to send a range of cells in a sms text message by using Visual Basic for Applications in Excel?

In my excel sheet i have few results displayed in range (same row different column with few banks cells in between). No i wish to display the most repeated value / result from that range into another cell on a different sheet of the same workbook. Can somebody help please.
Please note that the data (that is displayed in the cell rage from where i wish to get the most repeated one) is a the result of a nested IF statement.

I'm trying to create a conditional format that formats only cells that do not contain one of the names from a range of cells.
For example:
Cell O2 contains Florida
Cell O3 contains Texas
Cell range W1:W2
W1 = Florida
W2 = Arizona
In this example I want Texas to have a strikethrough, but Florida to be unchanged since Texas is not included in the list.
I keep getting an error when I try to do a format of text that does not contain =W1:W2.
I am just learning VBA. I need to move to a cell location that is named in a range. As follows:
The cell "Sheet2!A1" has a formula that results in "Sheet1!B3". I would like my VBA code to read that cell and select Sheet1!B3. When using something like:
Application.GoTo Range("Sheet2!A1")
I end up of course at Sheet!2A1. I want to end up at Sheet1!B3 or wherever the cell reads at the time the code is read and operated on.
trying to add cells together that contain time (hours and minutes). The cell containing the total formula shows the #VALUE! result when and only when one or more cells being added do not have a value in them.
The times have been entered as actual times of the day, formatted for AM/PM.
A simple adding formula works fine, but all cells must have a value in them to obtain a valid result.
I attach a sample of the sheet.
I need method, using a button, that looks at a cell--say EO2, for example--, looks back on a master worksheet at a specified row and range for a match, then looks at the information from a specified range below the matching cell (The information in this column will either be blank or have an "X" in the cell), and then those rows that do not have an "X" will be hidden in the corresponding rows in the working worksheet. Therefore, if at any time the value in "EO2" ever changes, then it will automatically find a new match and repopulate and hide information as before. About 130 columns will have its own button so that a "query" can be made that depends on the information in a particular cell in that column.
The master worksheet now has matrix of 287 rows and 58 columns. Each row is for an operating procedure and each column shows a job code. An "X" in a coordinate cell for a column/row shows whether that job code is responsible for knowing that operating procedure. So, on the working sheet, an employee's primary job code is given underneath his or her name. When the button is pushed, all the operating procedures not required for a given person will be hidden and only the required ones will remain visible--grouped, if you will. Qualification dates will be easier to see now that the information is consolidated. Whenever someone transfers to a new position, a new code will be inputed on the working sheet. When the button is pushed, a new grouping will result. Any operating instructions that overlap will still have qualification dates, so that information will not need to be transcribed.
I'm trying to create a shortcut that will allow me to add quotation marks to the begining and end of text in cells. I've tried the following, which works fine when only one cell is highlighted:
VB:
Dim rng As Range
Dim txt As String
Set rng = Selection
txt = """"
rng = txt & rng.Value & txt
However as soon as I highlight more than one cell, it errors. How to make it work for a range of cells?
I want to create a macro that will find a text string called "Season Average" in the entire workbook and delete a range of cells above it 4 cells longs starting right above the text and then going left.
Example is if "Season Average" is in cell D11, than I want the cells D10, C10, B10 & A10 Deleted and the cells to shift up
This happens throughout the entire workbook and multiple times on each work sheet in different spots not consistently same cells.
I'm trying to automate the process of exporting a range of cells to a text file. I think the Print# command will work because I don't want the quotes at the end of each line. Each range of cells will be a separate text file, and I want to save and name the file according to the column it's in. This bit of code from dominicb seems to be what I'm looking for, in principle.

Example:
A1 - dog
B1 - cat
C1 - mouse
I want the formula to give me "yes" if dog is present.
=IF(A1="dog", "yes", "no") is for one cell. However if I do it this way:
=IF(A1:C1="dog", "yes", "no") I get an error.
Initially I'm simply copying a data table from a web page using "Ctrl + A" then "Ctrl + C", and then pasting the data straight onto a new worksheet so I can work with it. (After temporarily re-naming the old sheet)
But I keep finding what looks like double-spaces after some of the important text within the Range of cells I'm working with. I need to be able to select & conditional format the values of the text in some columns of the sheet, so need to loose these trailing spaces.
Unfortunately, it's not consistence as to how many spaces trail the text I need. Sometimes it's only one space, sometimes its two spaces ?
So far, I've had mixed success with a recorded "Replace" code but none of the other codes I have found on forum pages either don't work all or seem to give any consistent results. E;g; TRIM, CLEAN
I suspect my problem is, I do not know how to call the code properly, or trying to work with too large a range ?
The start of my code reads:
Code:
Sheets("Data").Select
Sheets("Data").Name = "Old Data"
Sheets.Add After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
Sheets(Sheets.Count).Select
ActiveSheet.Name = "Data"
[Code]...
' At the moment I'm using to select the pasted range I want to work on: Range(Range("C46"), Range("C46").SpecialCells(xlLastCell)).Select
This is where I need a code to work on the new Data sheet and remove all the trailing characters.
MsgBox "All data cleaned successfully !", vbInformation + vbOKOnly, "All Done"
I'm trying to find the max value in range of cells that hold text equivalents?
e.g. cells contain 001, 002, 003, 004.
therefore max value is 004
Dim lMaxVal As Long
lMaxVal = Application.WorksheetFunction.Max(Val(rangeHazRoomNum))
I'm trying to create an excel spreadsheet to manage personnel and various ongoing projects, what I'm trying to do is create a custom box with a selection of options (5) that will automaticaly fill a selected range of cells with a colour and 'merged' text that was selected from the custom box.
