If Statement To Check If Particular Row Is Selected
Jul 18, 2014I have a macro right now which makes a selection and then checks that selection to make sure it has less than 5,000 rows. If it has more, then a message box appears and we end the macro. However, in order for this macro to work properly for me, I need to change the if statement so that instead of checking for the amount of rows selected, I only need it to check if ROW 2 is selected. Is this possible? If not, can we have an IF statement to check the contents of ROW 2 (Row 2 is my header on the worksheet and will never change)?
Here is the code I currently have: [Code] ......

If Statement With Command - Check Results
Nov 28, 2012I am trying to create an if statement that would check the results of a drop down menu and return a command to the user to enter certain information.
I created a drop down list, offering a list of projects 'a', 'b' or 'c'. I then created an if statement in the next cell. If user chooses project 'a' then the cell will return the project number associated with the project. The issue I am running into is that if the user chooses project 'c' in the drop down I need the cell to return a command for the user to enter the project name in the cell rather than the cell return the project number. How do I do that?
Using If Statement To Check A Cell To See If Empty
Jul 10, 2014Trying to look at cell I2 to see if it's blank, has the current expiration date of 9/1/2014, or has an earlier expiration date.
I'm entering in K2 the following: IF(I2="","",IF(I2="9/1/2004","OWES","C")) At this point if the cell is blank it will show blank in K2 but if there is a date it always shows C.

Check If Text String In Cell With Other Text Is In List
Mar 27, 2008I have a sheet in which some of the cells have two strings separated by a linefeed. I have come up with a cumbersome formula which will let me check if either of the two strings is a member of a list stored on another sheet. However, it fails if there is only one string in the cell, presumably as there is no linefeed for the formula to find. How can I modify the formula to cope with this situation?
There are also on occasions, three strings in the cell, but I can't seem to access the middle string with the formula. Simplified spreadsheet attached to show the problem. This must be formula-based, as we have a no VBA policy. If you think there is better way of doing this, please let me know.

View 2 Replies View RelatedExcel 2013 :: Check Cell For Text And Return Corresponding Text In Adjacent Cell?
Jan 28, 2014I have 2 tabs in a 2013 workbook. Inventory Receipts and lookups. One of the Data verification lookups I have is a drop down list in each cell in Column B (eg: Cat, Dog, Mouse) In the lookups tab I have another cell range containing the sounds (eg: Meow, Bark, Squeak).
What I am trying to acheive is, if B2 contains Cat, then return Meow in B3, if B2 contains Dog then return bark in b3 and if B2 contains Mouse return squeak in B3. Ideally I would like the formula to return the text from my lookup sheet (eg: 'Lookups'!C2,'Lookups'!C3,'Lookups'!C4). So depending on which option they choose from my animal drop down list .. the correct noise would automatically fill in.

Copying Values Into Text Statement
May 29, 2009I am using Excel 2007.
In cells A1 and B1 I have numerical values, e.g. 50 and 12 respectively. Cell C1 calculates the product A1*B1 (= 600). In another cell, say D1, I want to display a statement like “50 x 12 = 600” with the 50, 12, and 600 taken directly from cells A1, B1 and C1, without re-entering them. If I change the 50 to another value, say 70, then I want D1 to read “70 x 12 = 840”
IF Statement To Read Text In A Cell
Dec 29, 2008I need a statement to look at how many words are in a cell. If there is 4, to return "Stem" to another column, if it's the 5th word or higher then to return the last word in the string.
For Example
Column A.......................................................... .Column B
SOME-TEXT-GOES-HERE....................................../...STEM
SOME-TEXT-GOES-HERE-SOMEMORETEXT.............../...SOMEMORETEXT
SOME-TEXT-GOES-HERE-SOMEMORETEXT-AGAIN...../...AGAIN
I have tried but failed miserably! I though of using a lookup statement but due to the number of variations it would be quite time consuming.

Check For The Presence Of A Particular Text
Jun 1, 2009I have 3 columns, C1, C2, C3. I have to return a value for the following conditions
1. Check for the presence of a particular text in the C 1 (duplicate values can be present)
2. Check for the maximum value in C2, if the second for the particular text from the first column (duplicate values can be present)
3. If the text is found, I need to return the Maximum value from column 3. Else I need to return 0.
My formula has been returning zero despite the fact that I have a larger valid value in column C3.
The formula(s) I have been running is
1. IF((AND(C1 = "E", Max(C2))), (C3),0)
2. IF((AND(C1 = "E", Max(C2))),MAX (C3),0) (In case of duplicated in C3)
3. IF((AND(C1 = "E", Max(C2))),MAXA(C3),0)

In sheet1, i have some text strings in column A, e.g.

A2: my pen in blue
A3: Green grass
A4: Orange juice

What i want in corresponding cells in column B, is the name of the color which is in column A. so my output should be

B5: red (even though it contains 2 color, i am happy to show any one of the colors it contains)

Check For Specific Text
Jun 5, 2009am trying to write code to check if a cell contains specific text.
Basically, I hide all of the rows on the spreadsheet, and unhide them only if certain conditions are true.
Everything else, including first check is not a problem, it is just the part where I need to find specific text within a cell that contains various words.
Also, the cell I am searching for the text in is on a different sheet within the same book.
e.g.
------------------------
'Check for Specific parts
If Cells(intCount, 11).Value = "Yes" And ??(Does Cell 'x' (on a different worksheet) Contain the Word "Specific")? Then
'Select row
Rows(intCount).Select
'hide row
Selection.EntireRow.Hidden = False
End If

Check For Integer Or Text
Apr 13, 2007I'm on a time crunch and can't remember or seem to be able to find how to check if a value stored in a variable is a number or is text.
I want to be able to define QTY under the general public definition with no designation (i.e. integer, date, string...so on.)
The variable QTY could be anything and I grab some parsed data from a cell, if it is filled with a number I want to keep it, if not I want to delete it.
I know how to keep it or delete it, I just need to know how to check for integers...(check to see if it is a number from the keypad...I can still store it as text -- maybe integer isn't the best word).
I see you (whomever you is) fixed the "Deletked" in the message box...it is now Deleted. I can't give you a hard time about not following the rules now.

Conditional Formatting Of Text Obtained From IF-Statement
Mar 24, 2014Conditional formatting. I have been tasked with creating a simple game for a group training project.
The game consists of users filling in the answers to questions (simple one word text answers). My boss wants to have a master sheet with the correct answers, and a subsequent sheet that will then compare the employee's answer to the master sheet. If the employee's answer is correct, then the output sheet simply displays the correct answer, however, if the employee's answer is wrong, he would like the output to display the correct answer and highlight the cell.
Is there a way to have the output sheet highlight a cell only when the answer on the employee sheet is different from the master sheet? I was thinking along the lines of using an if statement to see if the values of the employee sheet differ from the master sheet, but I do not know how I would then use that result to highlight the cells in the output sheet.
IF And FIND Statement For Multiple Text Strings
Nov 19, 2009I have been given a huge membership list. The field for the CITY also as the two letter state abbreviation (e.g., "Fremont, CA" instead of just "Fremont".). I want to be able to have the "CA" or "WA" or "NV" (etc) from the city field appear in a new STATE field. I successfully use the below statement to do this with the "CA" but I want a statement that will search for multiple strings (the other states).
Here is what works now: =IF(FIND(" CA",F2),"CA"). But I want to be able to add other state abbreviations to this.
