If A Cell Is Empty Then Enter Data From Another?

Jul 26, 2006

I have an excel sheet with a few columns, Column (1) has data entered for ever row (with a name.) Column (2) has a few random cells with data (names) about 30% and the rest are left blank. What I need, is to have a formula in a new column (3) that will put in the the data (names) of column (2) and then if there isnt data in column (2) then it will put the Data (names) from column (1). (ps, If i cant get this figured out, we have to buy a custom interface and it will cost around $7000,)

Enter With UserForm To 1st Empty Row

Aug 16, 2008

I have an excel sheet with a couple of rows/columns of data in it (i've attached the sheet to my post (zipped in two parts)). Since I'm not familiar with VB. I want to simplify data entering procedure and I need a simple Userform for that purpose. That userform should enable me to enter data in the first row which has an empty cell in Column C. I have found a relatively decent userform on the internet and incorporated it into my sheet, but it's not working particularly well (it allows me to enter data only in one row, not in two or three). If I hadn't been clear enough, try to enter data in my sheet and you'll see what's the problem

Private Sub cmdAdd_Click()
Dim iRow As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("PartsData")
iRow = ws.Cells(Rows.Count, 3) _
.End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Row
If Trim(Me.txtPart.Value) = "" Then
Me.txtPart.SetFocus
MsgBox "Please enter a part number"
Exit Sub
End If
ws.Cells(iRow, 1).Value = Me.txtPart.Value
ws.Cells(iRow, 3).Value = Me.txtLoc.Value
ws.Cells(iRow, 4).Value = Me.txtdate.Value
ws.Cells(iRow, 5).Value = Me.txtQty.Value
Me.txtPart.Value = ""
Me.txtLoc.Value = ""
Me.txtdate.Value = ""
Me.txtQty.Value = ""
Me.txtPart.SetFocus

PS you'll notice that I have a Command button/Macro that inserts new rows in the middle of the already entered data. It perfectly suits my needs since it also copies the formula from the Column L to the new rows. That code needs no repairs.

Enter Date If Cells Not Empty

Jan 29, 2010

I'm having a hard time putting this into words, so I'll try to make it simple.

I have a list with cells b1 thru f1 empty.

If one or more of those cells becomes populated, I want today's date to show up in cell g1.

Yes, the user could enter the date manually, but apparently that's too difficult for some people.

Enter 4 Columns Of Data In Row Then Shift After Hitting Enter?

Jun 1, 2014

I really know nothing about vba so here goes. I would like to enter data in a row with 4 cells of info. then hit enter and return to the first cell and move the row down. all four cells must have data entered. and all four must move down. i tried some code as below i found and i modified but it did not work as expected. this moved the row down when returning the cursor to A2. It also should not copy the data style of the top row.

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Column <> 1 Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False

Go Immediately To A Particular Cell After Inputting Data In Another Cell And Hitting Enter Options

Feb 20, 2010

I'm inputting data in E3 and after I hit enter I want B2 to be
selected. But only for E3 and only in one worksheet. And possibly a
further step... Sometimes the formula in B2 has picked up data from
another place depending on what value was entered in E3. If it's done
this then I won't need to go to B2, I'd want to go to A8 after E3
instead of B2.

Enter Data In A Formula Cell

Mar 12, 2007

Is there a way to add data into a cell that already had a formula? Lets say in cell A1 we have a formula like "=A1*A2". Would I be able to some how enter a value into cell A1 without changing the formula?

Example: enter value "5" into A2 and value "10" into A1 which would result in A1 value being "50" after value is entered.

I know that this creates a circular error but is there any other way to accomplish this?

Run-time Error 1004 (founds An Empty Cell The Value For One Cell Is Copied To The Empty Cell)

I have a workbook with over 900 worksheets.

The macro I have is looping all sheets looking for empty cells in a specific column, and when it founds an empty cell the value for one cell is copied to the empty cell.

But in one worksheet it stops with the error:

Run-time error '1004'

Enter Data In Textbox And Go To Cell Containing That Text

Oct 19, 2011

I have a very long spreadsheet with about 3000 rows. lets say for simplicity that column A contains a list of product ID numbers. I am looking for some macro code where I can just type in the product ID into a textbox, then hit enter (or a 'go' button) and then the cursor will move to the cell containing the part number.

I know Ctrl+F will do the job for me, but because of the frequency that I do these searches, a text input box would be easier still.

The nearest solution I could find was the one here Find text but its a bit 'overkill' for my needs.

How To Enter Date In Separate Cell By Using Data Validation

Aug 19, 2013

I have used data validation to colour rows in one of my spreadsheets at work. The column that uses the data validation is the first column and has a drop down list of 5 words. One of which is collected, which currently indicates when the card has been collected by the individual in question and no further attention is required. It colours the rest of the row green. There is also a column that is entitled 'Date Collected'. Instead of having to input this manually, is there a way to automatically enter the date to be the date that the 'Collected' value was selected?

The title is misleading, I realise there will need to be some sort of IF statement in the 'Date Collected' column. It's been a long day already.

Excel 2010 :: Data Validation - Restrict Value User Can Enter Into A Cell

Oct 2, 2012

I'm using Excel 2010, and I need to restrict the value the user can enter into a cell (E9).

In cell E3 is the screen width (pixels). eg 6024
In cell E5 is the preferred width of a window. eg 450

The user, in cell E9, enters an x coordinate for which they prefer the top left corner of the window whose width is specified in E5.

If the value that the user enters in E9, added to the width entered in E5, exceeds the value of E3, (if E9+E5 > E3) then the value should be disregarded (window will be off right of screen) and the user re-enter.

I'm not familiar with the use of data validation, so I'm uncertain as to how to use it in this circumstance.

If No Data, Then Show Empty Cell

Jul 31, 2009

I'm using Excel 2003 and have a main workbook which stores the quotes, invoice, worksheet and contact details. In order to email only the invoice to a customer I have created another workbook which replicates whatever is shown in the open invoice tab of the main workbook. A macro from the main workbook then opens outlook.

I attach a sample of both for information. My problem is this - You will note that on the email invoice that any entries where there is no cost in the main workbook, that it shows "£ -". how to get it to show an empty cell if no value in the main workbook?

Create Data In Last Empty Cell

Jul 19, 2014

I have created in VBA a formula to look for the last empty cell in the "SBV INFO" sheet and it works.

I now need the VBA to go the the DCWC sheet and only extract the data and amounts from Columns K and M where there is a value more than "0" in column M.

The the data in Column K where the value in Column M is more than "0" must go to the first empty sell (found in the SBV INFO sheet) as per the VBA and the corresponding amount in Column M must go to Column AA (also in the SBV INFO sheet)

In other words from the attachement I need the following:

Column M in SBV INFO sheet 1st empty cell (this will vary which is why i did the formula)
SBV DURBAN WHL
SBV George RET
SBV PEW WHL

Column AA
237,030.00
248,000.00
150,000.00

This might change in future. which means I would have to be able to transfer 1 to 15 of these names and amounts depending on the value in Column M from the "DCWC" sheet.

VBA Deleting Data Until Empty Cell

Oct 28, 2008

I have searched around and cannot find exactly what im looking for. I have a table of data and want to delete it all by clicking a button. I only want it to delete the rows which have data in.

Example
A1 = Apple
A2 = Apple1
A3 = Apple2
A4 = Apple3
A5 = *Empty*

So it would delete A1-A4 and not delete A5.

Fill An Empty Cell With First Data Cell In The Same Column, Next Row(s) Down

Sep 19, 2009

I am looking for advice on how to move cells containing data (columns D to K in EXAMPLE A), upwards so that the information lines up with data already existing in columns A to C (to be included as part of an overall VBA routine).

In the upper example data in cell D2 needs to move upto D1, E3 to E1, F4 to F1, G7 to G1 etc and K9 to K1. Now, data on following rows is to move upto row 2 eg: E5 to E2, F6 to F2, G8 to G2.

The first 'block' of data starts at row 1 and finishes in this case at row 9.
The next 'block' of data starts at row 10 and finishes at row 18.
Row 19 shown is the start of the next 'block'. These 'blocks' may have upto 20 rows ....

If No Data, Then Show Empty Cell Using Conditions

If there is no value in the Hours then the Total Cost should show an empty cell and conversly if there is a value in Hours then calculate Hours*Cost Per Hour in the Total Cost cell. My condition for cell F5 is as follows: =IF(D5="","",SUM(D5*E5)). Whilst it works if there is a value in D5, when empty F5 shows #VALUE!

Moving Cells Data Down 1 Cell If That 1 Is Empty

Apr 29, 2014

I have a Rental Form that i'm working on, and to tidy things up when I print it out, I would like to move a cells data down 1 row if that cell is empty. Here's what I have:

cell b8 - First and Last Name
cell b9 - Address1
cell B10 - Address2
cell b11 - City, State, Zip
cell 12 - Phone #
etc.

Not too many people have an address2, so when that field is empty, I'd like to move Address1's data down to it's position (address2). If address2 has data in it, leave address1 where it is. Simple right? This moving would happen when the command button is hit and the form data goes to sheet 1 which works fine.
