I would like to embedd a symbol into a cell. I dont want it to be done by using Fonts. By symbol I mean Harvey Balls (Plan, Do, Check, Act) symbol embedded the same as the "and" (&) symbol. I have seen it done once on a spreadsheet but did not get a copy and I would like to recreate it as a way of visually showing the status of an action item.
View 14 RepliesI am asking for help with the program Crystal Ball. Basically what I need is non repeating assumptions. I have a roughly 10 assumptions and they are all uniform discrete distributions between 1 and 10 but I need to make sure that if assumption 1 chooses say number 3 that no other assumptions chooses that number and thus all the numbers are used for each simulation.

need to build into the spreadsheet the fact that the variable mix of people is constrained by the fact that at least 4 persons have to use a buggy (which will have 2 people in it) and as the tour progresses and courses become physically demanding a number of people (N) for the last 2 rounds may also ask for the use of buggies as well.develop a spreadsheet to make the 4 Ball team selections.
I am trying to automate a simulation with the crystal ball add-in. Specifically the simulation will go through a set of workbooks in a directory - run the simulation (monte carlo x1000) and extra the "trial values" data in another spreadsheet.
I have tried to find crystal ball documentation but I'm not having any luck.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI need to take cells such as the following from A1 down:
Baker, Helen
Brown, Joe
Smith, John
Roberts
Thompson, Karen
White, Daniel
Wright, Lisa
I need to move this to the next column but where there is a cell such as the 4th without a comma it needs to add ", N/A".
Basically it should make "Roberts" from A4 become "Roberts, N/A". I think it needs something to search for a comma and if it's not present to add that to the end.
Is there a way to define the end of a cell in a find/replace? I.e. I want to find characters like this:

and replace with

Cells in Columns A & B (57 rows deep) have a real time data feed and can have values of blank, "H", or "R". The H and R can remain in the cell for any length of time. I would like to have an audible ding go off whenever a new H or R appears in columns A or B. Is there a cell formula that can do this? I think a macro solution would not work, because the workbook has a macro that activates every 10 seconds, so I assume a macro solution would interfere if both macros happen to activate at the same time.

I'm trying to make a formula but are failing. This is the data:

a7 = good book
I want a formula that displays "True" if cell contains a "-" symbol AND the dash symbol is surround on both sides by a number (a space can go between dash and number)
I want the results to go in column B
For example, if a1 contains a dash and dashes are surrounded on both sides by a number, then "TRUE", otherwise "FALSE.
therefore:
b1 = FALSE
b2 = FALSE
b3 = TRUE
b4 = TRUE
b5 = FALSE
b6 = FALSE
b7 = FALSE
Column (B) contains two different units, either (ug L-1) or (mg L-1). I have this formula, =IF(B2="(ug L-1)",A2/1000,A2), which copies the value in column A to column C, so for cells that are in (mg L-1) units, it's a direct copy, but for cells that are in (ug L-1) units, it divides the value in A by 1000. However, I can't remember what the formula should be if the cell contains a "<" symbol AND is also in (ug L-1) units.
e.g.
< 0.004(ug L-1)
How can I change that to <0.000004?
I have a sheet that when printed out, will have 1 or more check boxes (depending on a formula) beside various items. Basically, if in a datafield it shows that there should be 3 boxes beside a line, it will show similar to this (except the O's are check boxes).

In the actual symbols list, there are no such symbols. I think there must be another type of symbol available as I use: ►
I grabbed that symbol from another spreadsheet, and I have no idea where it came from. I have wanted a similar arrow that points to the left or up, but I have no idea where to find them. I only know that the spreadsheet accepts a copy/paste of this symbol, and it does not seem to be related to any particular font set.
where I could find a "empty box" symbol, and also tell me where symbols like ► come from.
I need to use the following symbol (,, ▬ ) to show when my prices went up or down but when I try to use them in the VBA, they are replaced by a ?
I considered using the CHAR function, but its 255 characters do not incorporate the one I need.
I have a large list of data.
Approx 10,000 rows.
All I'm looking to do is delete in each row everything after the / symbol.
So everything after a forward slash gets deleted.
All my data is in ColA from A3 downwards.
Ideally would love a macro I can assign a button to.
As an example;

I am trying to create a custom number format that will put a plus sign in from of the value in a cell if the value is positive.
Here is what I have been using:
+#,###;-#,###;"On Forecast"
There have been a few problems with this. Firstly, the values are have two decimals, and I have not been able to adjust it accordingly. Secondly, there are some cells that contain only a zero, and the custom format above changes the zeros to 'On Forecast. Other than these two issues, that custom format works.
I am wondering if there is a symbol for "text" that I can use in a formula. I.e., =if(C="text", "", INDEX(C:C,MATCH(D16,A18:A23,0)))
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm using a large database - excel based, with lots of VBA and macros inside - where the default decimal format is “.” (period). When I copy and paste into a normal excel workbook format I want to replace the periods with comas. The paste function I'm using is “Match Destination Formatting (M)”.
I've recorded a macro to replace all of the periods with comas - still some of the values come up as a whole number, the period not being replaced with the coma.
I've tried almost all of the formats - text, general, number .... Still does not work.

For copying cell content into an other cell one can use = in the receiving cell.
Is there an equivalent symbol that will only copy the formatting into the receiving cell, without using format painter?
