How To Highlight Row Depending On Chosen Dropdown Value
Jun 25, 2013
I'm looking to use a drop-down to allow me to highlight a complete row depending on what I choose, each row is unique.
So if my drop-down is say 20 different words and I choose "Oil" I want it to look down the table and highlight the row that shows oil prices.
Example of column A might be as shown below (Starting in say A3).
(A3)Petrol
(A4)Wood
(A5)Oil
(A6)F/Fuel
(A7)Other
From my drop-down located in A1 I choose "Oil" I want it to select only row A5 and either highlight it or blank out the rest.

I see that IF statements can only be nested 7 times. How do I create a cell that checks to see what item was selected in the dropdown box of 20 different choices and choose a particular cell range depending on what is chosen?

Is there anyway that when I choose (for example, Jan) the result shows the sum of January numbers. On the other hand, if I choose Feb, the results would be the sum of February. See Mar on cell C8 and Feb on cell E15.

I am attempting to run a macro that will make conditional formatting I have applied permanent, and then remove the conditional formatting from the cell. My application for this is a master fantasy football cheatsheet, with multiple columns of the same player names ranked in different orders. When a player is drafted I type their name in cell A1, and conditional formatting is setup on so that name (presumably once in each column) will be highlighted/bolded/etc. For example, if I typed "LaDainian Tomlinson" in cell A1, I would be able to find his name in each list/column (from the conditional formatting that will make it stand out), and then run the macro to make this formatting permanent (show he has been drafted), and remove the conditional formatting code, leaving the effects. I found a macro online to do this at the following link, but am having some issues:
When I run the macro on any cells not containing conditional formatting, I get the message: "The formatting based on the conditions in the range (whatever is highlighted) has been made standard for those cells and the conditional formatting has been removed."
This messsage is precisely what I am trying to do, however, when I run the macro on a cell with conditional formatting (when it would actually be beneficial), I get "Run-time error '13' Type Mismatch"
When I go to debug, the error appears to be on the line

i am making a simple complaint tracking system and there is a column where there are two choices Resolved and Unresolved if you choose resolved it copies the row to the resolved sheet and if it's unresolved it copies the row to the unresolved sheet. i attached a template to give you an idea, i want the first complaint to be copied to the resolved sheet and second one to the unresloved sheet, i don't want the status column which contains the choices to be copied to the other sheets, also the unresolved sheet doesn't have a 'date closed' column because the complaint is not yet resolved so i dont want it to be copied there, i want it only in the resolved sheet.

I have a excel file to keep track of sales pipeline. What I am looking for, is an automated utility or code that will allow excel to automatically move entire rows once a task is completed and can be moved to another sheet. In Prospect sheet I have a column for " sales stage" and here you have to select from a drop down menu, either "Prospect", "semi-qualifed" "Pre-qualified" "verbal" "closed-won" and Lost. What I would like, is that once you have selected one of the sales stage, the entire row or entry, will be automatically moved to a new sheet according to each stage.

I am hoping to create a drop down list of months in one sheet, and when I select a certain month, columns in about 10 other worksheets in the same workbook will either hide or unhide columns...
The spreadsheet is laid out with columns (C-N) for each month in the year, for actuals, then columns for budget and budget variance (O-P), then YTD Actual, YTD Budget and YTD Variance. When I select September, for example, I want October-December to hide, and leave Jan-Sep unhidden, while keeping the budget, YTD and variance columns.
Is there a VBA code that can achieve this?

In columns B1, C1, D1, E1 are cities. Under each city is value for type of expense. I have uploaded worksheet for example.
Now, problem is next: I am trying to make drop down lists ( in new work sheet ) by using depending data from data table.
1.I made drop down list in first cell (let's say it is an A1 cell ) where I can chose city ( for example City of Zagreb ).
2.Then in next cell (B2) I would like to choose type of expense in drop down list ( for example Total trip cost ).
3.Finally, in C3 cell I would like to make drop down list that offers me just expense value for combination of chosen city ( Zagreb ) and chosen expense type ( Total trip cost ).

I would like to use or not use a dropdown list in data validation depending on the value of another cell. The application is to be able to choose a state from the dropdown list only if the country selected in another cell is "US". If the country is not US then I want the user to be able to fill in free text and there be no dropdown list. I know it's possible to have a dropdown list and allow entries without it being on the list but I need the dropdown list not to appear at all if the value is not US.

Any way to apply a formula to a cell depending on what choice is made from a drop down box in a cell that it refers to.
Hypothetically:
I have a drop down box in A1 with 2 options: Cookie Making Costs - or - Cake Making Costs
In cells A3 through A10, I have cells with the costs for all the ingredients (and B3 through B10 for cake ingredients).
If I select Cookie Making Costs, I would like B1 to apply a formula that sums up all the costs associated with making cookies "=sum(A3:A10)"
If I select Cake Making Costs, I would like B1 to apply the sum of the cake ingredients "=sum(B3:B10)"

I have 3 different tables on a sheet which I want to do a vlookup on depending on the selection from a dropdown.
I created the ranges I want to use in 3 cells and tried to reference the cell rather than the range. Excel no likey:
=vlookup(B2,A1,2,FALSE) instead of =VLOOKUP(B2,D1:H14,2,FALSE)
Is there anyway I can do what I am trying to do?

I have a table showing data for 10 teams. There are however 10 different measures which are pulled from a seperate sheet using a dropdown box to select the measure.
One of the measures is example 390823 which needs to be format 390,823 so that thousands are shown, and other formats are, example, 89.9 which need to be 89.9%.
Ive gone to my other sheet and all the raw data is showing correctly with % and ,s. But my dashboard table can only have one format. How do i make it so that each measure pulls in the correct format when selected, without dragging the whole area and changing each time?

I have a cell in my spreadsheet that I use to control the size of a column. I formatted the cell as a number and added data validation to make sure the number is greater than zero. Then I realized that I need to also allow for the option of auto sizing the column as well. This would require a data validation list type with something like True and False for the choices.
What I want to be able to do is have it both ways. I want a drop down list in that cell with the options Auto Size or Custom. If Auto Size is selected the cell value gets set to that. If Custom is selected I then want to be able to type in a number.

Is there a way to setup a cell such that the value is either an item from the drop down list or, entered directly (depending on the list selection)?
I know I can do it with dependent lists but that would require two cells, one for the auto size mode (true/false) and the other for manual width value.

Using macro's on Excel 2010. What I'm trying to do is create a macro that will copy a range of cells from one sheet to another depending on a option being selected from a drop down box. I've tried to use formulas but without success.
sheet 1 contains a list of approx 20 people with rows containing sales figures per week.
Is it possible to have a macro that will copy the rows to sheet2 depending on the dropdown? The drop down has already been setup with people's names
E.g.
if sheet 1, cell a1 (with data validation setup) dropdown contains "mr smith", copy sheet2 row A1:A9 to sheet 1 cell a2
or
if sheet 1, cell a1 dropdown contains "mr cooper", copy sheet2 row B1:B9 to sheet1 cell a2
etc... for each name in the dropdown
The idea is so that i select a dropdown and it copies the sales figures that match the dropdown name, if i then select another dropdown, the corresponding figures are copied to the same place.

I administer an excel spread sheet which over the years I have added bits of code to which now generates our weekly roster sheets and our daily duty sheets. Sheet 1 is the weekly roster and sheets 2 to 8 are the daily sheets. If an employee is on leave or sick for the coming week the value S or L is entered in to Column B on each daily sheet and when the roster is processed for printing it strikes through the names of the employees for each day that they are off. What I would like to do is then Highlight the name on sheet 1 the weekly roster sheet so at a glance we can see on the main week sheet any issues we may have for the next week. What it needs to do is if the cell in column B contains S or L on sheets 2 to 8 the name which is in column C on these sheets needs to be matched to the name in column D on sheet 1 and this cell highlighted.

In a macro I want to automatically insert a formula in several cells. The formula depends on other cells, and I want to be able to manipulate these cells with variables. Here is my code:
[Code] .....
All my variables are declared:
Sheets("DATOS YTD 2014").Cells(I, Semana + 1) is the cell I want to be able to chose due to the variables
Sheets("DATOS YTD 2014").Cells(I, 3) is the reference cell for the VLOOKUP formula, that will vary with I
SheetMonth.Range("B3:W172") is a range in the sheet SheetMonth which is fixed
The error message I receive is the following: "Run-time error 13, Type mismatch"
I precise that the next step is to make the ",6," part in the vlookup formula also variable... but I guess once my current issue is solved this one will be a piece of cake.

I need to insert multiple images into a worksheet every 45 rows in and a specific column. I have sourced from other threads a means to insert multiple images but they are all inserted in the one cell.
What I require is the means to either place them directly into specific cells or move them to the correct cells once in the worksheet.
As you will see I am also attempting to resize the images once they have been inserted.
Below is the code I have thus far.
Sub Insert_Pict()
Dim Pict As Variant
Dim ImgFileFormat As String
Dim PictCell As Range
Dim Ans As Integer
Dim newPicture As Shape

I want to select the file name from the window which appear from the coding below,to be pasted in my textbox in userform.With only the coding below,I can only select my required file name(.txt) and afterwards, the file will be sorted into excel sheet.Before this,I set my Userform in such a way,user have to copy paste the path of the file into appropriate textbox.It´s already functioned.I wish to alter the userform to be more user-friendly.Instead of copy paste the path,user can click the BROWSE button which I put next to the textbox,and the file can be selected.
Private Sub cmdBrowse_Click()
Dim b As Boolean
b = Application.Dialogs(xlDialogFindFile).Show
End Sub
The file should not have been sorted automatically because,user need to type in another inputs before running the process.
