How To Recode Variable In Excel

Nov 12, 2013

how to recode a variable. Suppose I have a variable for Ethnicity and this is a text variable, and I would like to get a numeric variable out of it. I tried to use IF but it works only for one condition or for nested conditions, which is not my case. What I would need is something like= IF(B2=Black,1, IF B2=White, 2, IF and so on)

Is there a way to do this without writing a code in VBA?

Statistics: How To Recode Data

Oct 9, 2002

I have been looking everywhere for this. In SPSS, it is very easy to recode data, but how do you do this in Excel? For example, researchers often "reverse" their questions on surveys with Likert scales to eliminate respondent errors. In those questions, you want 1=5, 2=4, 3=3, 4=2, 5=1. Is there a plug-in or some other formula that is out there?

Variable Data With Excel Macros

Jul 13, 2012

I am relatively new to macros and trying to understand how to modify a certain macro that I recorded. Here is what I'm trying to do...every month I have a file with a bunch of data. I need to take that file, filter it, and pull certain data from it into separate tabs within the same workbook. The number of rows of data will change from month to month however I'd like to have a macro that will capture however many lines of data. I have several rows/columns of info I need to copy between tabs but I recorded a macro with just one filter and one row of data for now just to try and understand what I need to do. I have copied it below.

Sub Intersegment()
'
' Intersegment Macro
'
'
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$AF$727").AutoFilter Field:=14, Criteria1:= _
"Intersegment"
ActiveWindow.ScrollColumn = 2

Excel 2007 :: Call Sub Using Variable?

Feb 23, 2013

I'm trying to call another sub with a variable string. I'm using excel 2007. I get the error "Compile Error: Expected Sub, Function, or Property" on the "Call" code. The want the code to run multiple different subs based on user input. For example if they typed "this" it would run the t sub, then h sub, then I sub and finally the s sub.

Code example

Dim Uncvrtdtxt as string
Dim SubName as string
Dim i as integer
Uncvrtdtxt = "this"
For i =1 to Len(Uncvrtdtxt)
SubName = Mid(Uncvrtdtxt, i, 1) & "Route"

Excel Find Brand And Variable

Feb 21, 2014

I'm creating a macro with several brands in a variant variable.

The only thing that isn't working, is the find function. I want to find "Brand" & variable. So when my variable is "medicijn1", then I want to find "Brand medicijn1". However, when I try, it gives me the following error:

"run-time error '91': Object variable or with block variable not set".

The macro basically looks like this

Sub Medicijnen()
Dim Medicijn As Variant

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each Medicijn In Array("medicijn1", "medicijn2", "medicijn3", "medicijn4"")

Excel 2013 :: Set Photo Path As Variable?

Mar 31, 2014

I have a macro that inserts a photo via a photo path that has been set as an object variable. This macro has always worked for me in Excel 2003 but after updating to Excel 2013, the macro gives me a "runtime error 1004 - unable to get the insert property of the picture class". When I debug, Excel crashes.

The macro is designed to loop through up to nine fields (in 9 adjacent columns) and find a photo path for a picture, insert the picture, and print that page, then go to the next column, get the photo path and insert that picture and repeat. The initial part of the macro is as follows. The PhotoID as Object seems to be what no longer works...

I do not care if the inserted photos are maintained in the file when it is not connected to the3 drive hosting the photos, only that I can print them when the drive is available.

Sub PrintPDFImpSums()[INDENT][INDENT]Dim PageNo
Dim RangePrint As Range
Dim Photo As Picture

VBA - Find / Replace Excel Variable In Word

Apr 7, 2012

I have never used VBA in word before, so I am assuming I am making it more complicated than it needs to be. I have a macro that stores 20 excel values as variables, then opens up a word document. I want to replace values in word with my values in excel. I keep getting an error with the replace part. I do not want to use bookmarks or mail merge. MSWord is a reference in excel VBA.

Code that stores excel variables (Example: Var1=Data1 and Var2=Data2)...
'Opening up the correct word document
Dim WdApp As Object, WdDoc As Object
Set WdApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
WdApp.documents.Open ThisWorkbook.Path & "" & Range("D1").Value & ".doc"
WdApp.Visible = True

Excel Formula For Variable Number Of Columns

Sep 25, 2012

I am looking to place a formula which will look like this:

=min("A2:?2"), where ? depends on "number of columns". If number of columns is 4, then it should be D, E or Z. Number of columns is specified as an integer in range("B2").

I do not want to do it in a macro, want to do it in the formula.

I have done this before, but can't quite remember. I have tried:

=min(range(cells(1,2),cells(1,2+B2))), but does not work.

Putting A Variable Range From Excel Into SQL Code

Feb 12, 2010

I suppose this is kind of SQL as much as anything so apologies if this isn't really the right place for it.

I had an idea of how to use a concatenated string in Excel to utilise the SQL IN statement for listing parameters that vary from day to day.

Annoyingly my code does not work:

If my range of codes is for example

Excel 2007 :: Variable References To Multiple Workbooks?

Jan 10, 2012

i make a lot of "trending" files at work where i link a cell to a seperate workbook where all workbooks are in the same folder.

these workbooks all have the same name with the date at the end

example:
workbook 06-01-2011
workbook 06-02-2011
all the way to
workbook 12-31-2011

usually i use find replace to change the date one at a time, but doing that 365 (x how many cells i have referencing) times is redundant

i have seein INDIRECT of the cell changes but nothing for the workbook name chaning

here is what i am trying to do:
='C:File Path[WorkbookX.xls]Sheet1'!A1
where the X WorkbookX is variable (the date at end of file name)

i have a list of all workbook names or just the dates and would like to do something like:

=D1&$A$1
where D1 is the full path name
or
='C:File Path[Workbook"D1".xls]Sheet1'!A1
where D1 is the date name

using excel 07 i prefer not to use a macro for how i am doing this but if a macro is the only way then i cannot have it actually open the files to pull the data. i prefer no macro since i set it up for future dates so when the new file is created it automatically updates the reference.

my end result i usually have something like A1=referenced cell from first workbook, A2= cell from 2nd book, etc. sometimes B1 would = a different cell from first workbook and so on if i am trending multiple cells from the workbooks

Excel 2007 :: GET PIVOT DATA With Variable Parameters

Mar 2, 2012

I have a pivot table that has several row labels and 1 column label. I am trying to create a Ranking table outside of the pivot table because I am using Excel 2007 and can't use the new Rank option in Excel 2010. My difficulty is in being able to rank each subgroup of the row labels.

I have thrown a column for "Target Rank" in the data, just to validate my calculation in the PivotTable worksheet, but it is only correct as long as all Company and Product Name options are selected for a given Sex, Age, and Scen Defn.

My non-dynamic formula is:

=RANK(GETPIVOTDATA("Target",$G$5,"Company","AIG a","Product Name","Elite Index UL a","Sex","F","Age",25,"Class","1-Best NS","Scen Defn","Overfunded A"),$L$8:$L$30).

I have figured out how to make some of the items variable to this degree:

=RANK(GETPIVOTDATA("Target",$G$5,"Company",$I8,"Product Name",$J8,"Sex","F","Age",25,"Class","1-BestNS","Scen Defn",$K8),$L$8:$L$30).

I know can make the $L$8:$L$30 copyable across columns by changing it to L$8:L$30.

My dilemma is several fold.

1. If I filter the Company or Product Name the $30 in the range no longer applies. Is there a way to make the bottom of each grouping dynamic?

2. Is there a way to make the item entry associated with the "Class" column label a variable so I can copy across columns?

3. Similar questions related to the row labels for Sex and Age?

4. Lastly, I can write an expression that would make my Rank columns blank if the Company column was blank, but is there a way to reset the data range to look at the next block? That is, if "Age" changed (was not blank) that would indicate the top of a block of data.

I have tried to think of ways to use INDIRECT and I don't know VBA well enough to do it in a macro.

Excel 2010 :: Keystroke To Select Variable Name From Dropdown List?

Excel 2003 :: Perform Operation Variable Number Of Times?

I would like to perform a sum of randomly generated numbers between 0 and 6, but I want the number of independent random numbers to be dependent on another cell. I have =SUM(RANDBETWEEN(0,6) and then I get stuck. Is there a way to perform the RANDBETWEEN(0,6) a number of times stated in another cell? In this case that value is 67 but it will vary from around 5 to 150. I think there is a way to do this with macros, but I am not versed in visual basic. I am using Excel 2003.

Excel 2002 :: Setting Variable To Select All Worksheets In Workbook

Jan 20, 2012

I've got some code which some one posted me a link to on here which set up a pivot table on more that 1 sheets (using excel 2002).

I inserted this code into a rountine I do daily which works fine.

The problem Im having is that Im getting more and more info which I need to pivot over more than one sheet. So I was going to amend the rountine so It picked what ever sheets are in the work book to pivot.

At the moment I have to go into the code and name the sheets to pivot. Is there some code which can work out how many sheets that need pivoting and just do it with out naming them? and also just add a new sheet with the pivot on rather than having to name the destination?

I've posted the code i got given below and have highlighted the bit where I have to name the sheets.

Code:
'---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
' Procedure : CreateConnection
' Author : KL (Kirill Lapin)
' Date : 18/08/2009

Excel 2010 :: ODBC Connection String With Multiple Variable (WHERE) Requirements

Dec 29, 2013

With VBA in Excel 2010 I am connecting to a SQL server by using ODBC.

This is a two part process:

Part one:I have created a connection string that gets me the following data: A, B, C, D, E from sheet tpoPurchOrder Where B is equal to "1" And Where C is equal to a changing field under Sheets("Macros").Range("B2")

Here is part one

Code:

Sub Part1()
Sheets("Open PO by Vendor").Select
Sheets("Open PO by Vendor").Cells.Clear
With ActiveSheet.ListObjects.Add(SourceType:=0, Source:= _
"ODBC;DSN=Connection;Description=Description;UID=USER;PWD=PASSWORD;APP=Microsoft Office 2010;WSID=Workstation;DATABASE=Database" _
, Destination:=Range("$A$1")).QueryTable

[code]...

Part one works perfectly.

Part two is where I have problems.Part two is a little different because I have the same connection, but what changes is the table that I am looking at "tpoPOLine" instead of "tpoPurchOrder" and the where is now going to have a variable number of commands.

I want part two to be depend on part one. Under part one I want the result from column E to be a where statement in part two.

As follows:

In particular: *E3 from Part 1*, etc.

Code:
"SELECT tpoPOLine.Status, tpoPOLine.POKey, tpoPOLine.ItemKey, tpoPOLine.POLineNo, tpoPOLine.UnitCost, tpoPOLine.ExtAmt" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "FROM mas500_DII_app.dbo.tpoPOLine tpoPOLine" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "WHERE (tpoPOLine.POKey=*E2 from Part 1*) OR (" _
, _
"tpoPOLine.POKey=*E3 from Part 1* ) OR (tpoPOLine.POKey=*E4 from Part 1*)" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "ORDER BY tpoPOLine.POKey" _
)

Now my problem is that sometimes the E column from part one ends up being 1 row, sometimes it ends up being 50 rows. I would like the code to change accordingly.

1. Pull everything from the SQL server filter once in excel. This is not as efficient as the database has ~300,000 rows in the tpoPOline table and would take a lot longer then needed.

2. Create a nested if table and

Change

Code:
WHERE (tpoPOLine.POKey=*E2 from Part 1*) OR (tpoPOLine.POKey=*E3 from Part 1* ) OR (tpoPOLine.POKey=*E4 from Part 1*)"

to the value of that nested if table

The nested if table would be something like =if(isblank(E2),"E1",if(isblank(E3)... etc for ~50 rows. I know the syntax is incorrect but you get my point.

3. Rerun the query for each value in column E. That would require the connection to happen ~50 times which would not be that great, as well as I would have to copy and paste the data after each run as the tables cannot overlap.

What I am looking for is a way to run this only once, on one sheet, without writing a nested if table with 50 if's.
