How To Validate If Left Cell Value And Left Cell Above Value Are Not Same
Sep 16, 2013
I have a column that is giving unwanted value . dont know the reason as that excel file has been created by some other guy and I just started working on it .
My Question is how to move to 2 cells left(A for example) from from that unwanted value column. and check if
A is equal to cell above it , means B Cell(Row above A but same column).
As my excel file is totally based on Forms, Macros, I am not quite familiar with macros.
Is there any way to put if condition in one cell (column) and drag it all the way down which should work for all the values in these 3 column.
And also if A=B then I want to make that unwanted value cell="".
I have a 2010 excel sheet containing 14 columns and 45082 rows in total. I am quite illiterate when it comes to writing macros but I know that what I need can be achieved with a set of codes.
To be more clear, I inserted two tables below. The first one represents the current data structure, and the second one is the way I want my data to look like.
Current data structure looks like Variable 1 Variable 2 Variable 3
I am having trouble filling a formulae series to the left on one spreadsheet, the fomulae being references to another sheet.
For example, I have two sheets 'Mtce Options' and 'Base Case'. In 'Mtce Options' I have the following formulae
A B C 1='Base Case'!A15='Base Case'!D15='Base Case'!G15
I want to fill to the left, incrementing the column references by a factor of 2 each time, eg. next two should be ='Base Case'!J15 and ='Base Case'!M15.
However, if I autofill to the left by highlighting A1, B1 and C1 or just B1 and C1 all I get is an inappropriate reference such as ='Base Case'!D15 or ='Base Case'!F15, respectively, in D15.
i need a code that moves down a column and for every empty cell in the column the cell to the left is cleared and then it moves on to the next cell down. the column is not always the same and will start from a selected cell, and the column will contain no more than 5 rows
I have data arranged in cells A1 to Z1 as Name1, Amount1, Name2, Amount2, Name3, Amount3, etc. Is there a formula that can determine the name that corresponds to the maximum amount in the row?
I would like to add a value to a cell. The value in this cell will either be 1, 2, 3 or 4.
The value of this cell needs to be "1", if the cell to its left is "Red". The value of this cell needs to be "2", if the cell to its left is "Purple". The value of this cell needs to be "3", if the cell to its left is "Green". The value of this cell needs to be "4", if the cell to its left is "Blue".
I believe I need to find the HEX values for the colors, but that is no problem, I just need the formula of the function if you know it.
I have Column A and Column B. Every row in column A is populated, but only some of the rows in column B are populated. I need a formula that copies column A if B is blank. (i.e. If B6 is blank, copy A6). Thoughts?
I've been pounding away at a project for two days trying to determine a way to identify a solution, to no avail.
Here is some experimental code. Under the assumption that in Column "A", every fifth line contains some text (a, b, c, etc) I want to place a function in column B that would identify the closest occupied cell above and to the left of the cell containing the function. The sub achieves this, but the function has a problem because of the Activecell line. Is there a way to identify the location of the cell containing the function to act as a reference point for the range?
Sub find_last_heading() Application.ScreenUpdating = False x = ActiveCell.Address ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Select last_heading = ActiveCell.Text Do Until last_heading "" ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0).Select last_heading = ActiveCell.Text Loop MsgBox last_heading Range(x).Select End Sub Function cathead(Optional reference)
I am looking to write a formula in an excell cell to veiw some of the wording in another cell. I know how to say that i want to see the first or last "x" characters in a cell.. But how do i say that i want to see all the info/wording in a cell except the last "x" characters..
Sheet 1 is a table with the first column and first row as text (table headings). The first column is names and first row is from report names.Namereport 1report 2Jane Doe114John Doe52
Sheet 2 is the report1, for example purposes NameJane DoeJane DoeJane DoeJane DoeJane DoeJane DoeJane DoeJane DoeJane DoeJane DoeJane DoeJohn DoeJohn DoeJohn DoeJohn DoeJohn Doe
I am trying to have it to so that when you double click on cell B2 of sheet1, it will go to sheet2 and autofilter on the value to the left of B2 on sheet1 "Jane Doe"
This is what I have so far but when I double click on B2 it just moves the cursor to the cell to the left instead of filtering on the value of the cell to the left on sheet2.
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean) Dim id As String
If IsEmpty(ActiveCell) = False Then ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Select Else id = CStr(Selection) Sheet2.Activate Sheet2.Range("A1:A500").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=IsEmpty(ActiveCell) = False And ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Value.id
Is there any way to refer to a cell that is directly to the left of the current cell?
I need to create a Comma-Separated Value file with the Excel formula in the CSV file. Because of this, I do not know the current cell location, but want to do something like =(Cell directly to the left of me) + (Cell two cells to the left of me)
Search for "CAP_ACTV_LN_SEQ" keyword in column A of Sheet1 and when found go two rows down and do the following
Delete cell D128 and E128 ( if more than 1 rows then do the same for all rows till "selected" keyword detected below it eg C131 in this case ) and Shift cells in the right to two column left as shown in figure below -
I am trying to return the value in the cell immediately to the left of a Maximum value found in 3 cells. I've added the MAX(Q4,S4,U4) formula into AF4. I've tried several variations without success.
My question requires me to do a Vlookup question that needs to get the information in the next two cells over from the left most cell. In short I need to put info from two different cells from the same row and look up value into one cell.
In my column B, I have different words like Balance, Notes, Expense, etc. Is there anyway I can look into column B, and if I get the word Expense, then take the number directly to the right of it (from column C) and SUM it? Not sure if it matters, but let's say I want to put it in cell C2. I figure this will allow me to do this like insert, delete rows in the future, but my equation in cell C2 will still add up what I need.
I have a spreadsheet where I extract the last 3 digits of a five digit string by using the "=Right(...)" command.
Column A 71500 Column B =right(column a,3) Column C 500 Column D = lookup(Column C,toc_desc) Column E #N/A (if it worked, this would read Labor)
I want to take the result of that command (Column C) and use the "Lookup(...) command to translate type of cost as a name rather than the three digit number (Column D). Excel doesn't recognize the result of the "=Right(...)" command. I am getting #N/A as a result. (Column E). How can I get Excel to read that number and give me the results I need?
see attached. The only reason why I include an attachment is because the computer I am using at work is crippled and I cannot download a program which would allow me to display in the message body. A10:C12 is to be a summary of the respective values in A30:C36. I want a formula which will find the first occurrence of a revision number in B30 to B36 and apply the date in the cell to the left to the respective revision number to the above summary date column [[A10 to A12]. B30 to B36 is always unsorted order. It has to allow for lines in A30:C36 which have no entries. Line 32 and Line 33 is an example of this.
In other words, based on the above example, A10 would show date 02/01/06, A11 would show 03/22/06, and A12 would show 04/14/06. Each revision number in B30 to B36 is consistent with regard to the particular revision being the same date. The reason for wanting first occurence is because any one revision in the summary may consist of a number of revision amounts below, each having the same revision number. inally, although I would like to retain the particular column order in the example, if necessary, I can reverse A1 and B2.
I'm trying to figure out why i'm getting this error: "Object variable or With block variable not set" for this
Sub Macro3() Dim cel As Range Dim str1 As String Dim SearchThing As Range Set SearchThing = ActiveSheet.Range("I34") str1 = Left(SearchThing.Value, Len(SearchThing) - 4) cel.Value = str1 End Sub
I'm working with a datafeed and basically I have a column with the prices of each product in the same row. What I need to do is take the value in the price column and insert it in a specific spot of a different cell (but still on the row).
A1 = <b></b> B1 = 29.99
How would I get that price information between those two bold tags, and do this for all the rows I have that contain specific price info to that row?
I have a lot of HTML in the line I want to bring the price over to and I have tried the following formula at the beginning cell of A1 ="<b>"&B1&"</b>" but I get an error.

This works dandy, except for one thing - it will select Cell (1,1) in each sheet, but when you go there, the view is still where it was last time. (Given the nature of the sheet, usually scrolled down to the end.) How do I make sure that the view is at the top of the page? So that A1 is not only selected, but at the upper left corner of the page? Is there a "Scroll to top" type of function?
