If Column Values Have Different Units - How To Filter Them
Dec 4, 2012
I have a column named length and values are in different units ie few values in mm, few in cm, few in m. i have to filter out columns having range from 9mm to 6cm. How to do this task.(10mm = 1cm and 100cm = 1m)
Consider sample data as:
4 m
8 cm
9 m
3 mm
9 mm
6 m
6 cm
3 cm
2 m
I have three columns. Lets assume i have One header row and 3 rows of actual data and the 4th row is for totaling column B values.
Column A is a col of "Ingredients", column B is the amount of the ingredient (from col A) used. The value is either in Oz or Lbs. Can be either. Column C is a yes or no column. If the value is Yes then i want to have the value in col-B included in my overall sum which is in the 4th row. If the value is No then i do not want the value in col-b (in that row) included in the overall sum.
I have many sheets which I am using the advanced filter to filter the data to a single summary sheet. Everthing works great with one exception. I have cell comments added with relevent info to to cell values. When the advanced filter is performed the cell comments are not transfered to the summary sheet with the cell values. Is there a method to filter the data to another sheet and keep the comments?
I need to work out how long the batten has to be so the roof sheets fit evenly, the measurement has to start from 1460mm and go up in increments of 80mm eg 1540mm, 1620mm, 1700mm and so on.
But the number has be closest increment of 80mm over the shed width if this makes sense, the size of the battens for 2400 width shed would be 2420mm but i need this to work out for any width shed not just 2400.
What I am trying to do is take entered data in a spread sheet, and convert the units within that cells.
I have several entries for data in this sheet. Here is what I want to do:
-I have 104 entered in cell B2 -I want to convert that reading (which is ºF) to ºC in that same cell -I would like a button or selection from a drop down box to select Metric or Imperial
I want to do this so if the whole spread sheet is entered in metric, I can select a name or click a button to have all the data switch to imperial. I know I can do this with two sheets in the same file, but I am not sure if this is possible to do in a cell I entered the data in. Any help would be great. I am using Office 2003.
I'm wondering how to display the following cost model on a graph (this is a piecewise-linear cost model for some production company):
Cost per unit for 0-10 units: $1 Cost per unit for 11-20 units: $3 Cost per unit for 21-30 units: $5 Cost per unit for 31-40 units: $8 Fixed cost: $100 (this is regardless of the number of units produced)
Basically I'm looking to construct a cost vs units graph.
I have been tasked with tracking the expected income for our Advertising Department. (I work for a newspaper.) The rate I charge an ad depends upon the total number of advertising units a customer purchases during an entire billing period. Essentially: I need to have a total of column G for when column B matches the current row. I need this in column K. The value of K should be the same when the value of B is the same.
My programing flow chart I sketched out checked to see if any row in column B that is above the current row matched the current row's data. If it did then it would use that row's value for the total number of units. If it did not it would add up the units from G when B matched the current column. I attached a document
I have a spreadsheet that keeps attendance. Now I need to calculate the units (1 unit= 15 minutes) the children are actual here. On a normal schedule they are here for 16 units but if the are late the units get subtracted. When entering the data, they would like to use letter instead of numbers.
Refer to the attached sample workbook, (Keep in mind that there is an error in the sample workbook; Im not sure how to remove and re-attach the sample workbook as this is my first day on this forum.)
Cell F19 should contain =D19*B19
Column 1- These values will not change and represent price/cost of each UNIT Column 2- "UNITS" the quantity or number of items at column1 value Column 3- "$ AMT" the total cost of UNITS at that price/cost, i.e. Column1*Column2
Im looking for a way populate the values in Column2 when, "NUMBER OF UNITS" AND "AVERAGE COST PER UNIT" are changed
Ideally speaking, As few units in one row as possible to allow for a good mix. For example: What i don't want is $9000*86 for 774k.
If it helps: "AVERAGE COST PER UNIT" will always be a whole number rounded up to the nearest 1000.
I believe a Most Even distribution of units will work fine.
After the distribution/population of fields in column2;
D29 must equal F3 F29 must equal F7
I'm looking for something that will populate the values in D12:D27 while adhering to the two conditions above. Even when the Input at F3 and F4 are changed.
The values in "UNITS" represent the number of a specific cost item in inventory when added together do not exceed the "TOTAL COST OF INVENTORY". Depending on store location, the "AVERAGE COST PER UNIT" and/or the "NUMBER OF UNITS" will change. It will be used to help forecast how many of a specific cost item should be purchased based on the overall average unit cost without exceeding the budget or inventory space.
Is there a way to filter column A but ensure it includes multiple lines of data in a different column.
I have attached an example of what I am looking for:
I need to filter by community but keep all the information listed in columns, B, C, & D. So when I filter to Thunder Bay I would still see the 5 members listed in column D.
I realize the easy solution is to fill all the empty cells in column A to pick up the data in the other columns, but I do not want to Fill all the empty cells to include the name "Thunder Bay" (not the look I want for this spreadsheet).
So i have 40K to spend, i want to eneter 40000 into a box and it will auto populate the number of units i can buy, always setting the weapon #6 as the priority.
I have a simple spreadsheet that allows the user to enter a dimension in metric or inches. I want to display the other units in the adjacent cell. In cell A1, the units are "Metric" or "Inch" in a pull down list. In cell A2, the value is entered.
In cell A3 i want to show the value in the other units. So if A1 is Metric, then take A2 and divide by 25.4. And if A1 is Inch, then take A2 and multiply by 25.4. Also, if A1 is Inch, then display 2 decimal places in A3, and if A1 is Metric, then display 3 decimal places in A3. Is this possible?
I'm trying to set up a spreadsheet that tracks total hours worked and total units produced. Then I need to have a column that shows how many units per hour were produced.
Currently, I have something like this: Column A is in elapsed time [h]:mm Column B is a Number with two decimal places Column C divides Column B by Column A
However, I get strange results. For example: Column A is 6:24:00 Column B is 13 Column C shows 120.00
13 parts in 6:24 hours should be something like 2.1666 parts per hour!
I need a formula that will tell me what % of the first 5 units sold are new, based on the dates provided. This is an example of the data I am working with. What i am looking for is a cell that will respond with .4 (meaning 40% of the first 5 units are new) ...
I have a formula to add the volume (units) for a customer. The formula is:
=E5+E10+E21+E31+E38+E52+E65+E69 Is there a formula that I can use instead of the one above that will find the customer number and automatically sum the units?
I am attempting to calculate a dollar value that is based on a number of units. Each unit has a different dollar value depending on how many units there are. for instance,
if the spreadsheet reports one unit, then I need to return $45 if the spreadsheet reports two units, then I need to return $65 or 1st unit at 45 and 2nd unit at $20. if the spreadheet reports three units, then I need to return $ 75 or 1st unit at $45, 2nd at $20 and 3rd at $10 all subsequent units 4 and up need to add $10 per additional unit.
We are trying to work out a pricing model based on how many units we will produce. In production the price per unit will be really high when you produce a low quanity, and the price per unit will be lower with the more units you produce (but never reach zero). What we are trying to accomplish is to create a formula to build a pricing structure that accounts for this curve without having to price every possible scenario.
For example, if we have the following data where for 1 unit we charge $3 per unit to produce, for 5 units we charge $2 per units to produce, etc...:
1 units @ $3 per unit 5 units @ $2 per unit 10 units @ $1 per unit
What I need to figure out is how much it would cost per unit if we were to produce 3 units. I'm guessing it would be somewhere around the $2.40 mark give or take. Or say 8 units, would be something like $1.50 per unit.
Is there a formula that can calculate this? I've tried thinking of it as a moving average, or prorating the pricing.
I would like to build a Macro to delete units (ex: 10V --->10) of two cell ranges that are not beside each other and eventually automate it to graph these two ranges because I will be running samples and have to produce a graphs for each sample.
I tried the code below, but I can't figure out how to include 2 ranges without deleting letters in other cells in in between the ranges.
for ex: I want to delete the non numerical characters in the two ranges C3:C1000 and H3:H1000 and graph these ranges.
I'm in the process of generating numerical ratings for football players based on their different positions. So, I've got a list of people's names, attributes rated numerically and then for each player it calculates overall scores for different positions with each attributes being weighted differently for each position.
What I was hoping to do was to have pre-requisit values. Ie if a player gets a score lower than a certain value on a certain attribute, he's not rated for that position (or he gets a 0 or whatever).
I am using a OLAP cube, and i dragged a group dimension as Report filter,
I am using pivotitems and looping , but not able to read the filter values.. other than pagefields.cubefield.currentpage
we have around 200 groups, but we have to display only groups belonging to user. so i have macro which gets the list of just user groups.. so need to delete/update filter items so only user can see just see their groups.
1. In VBA code, i am not able to read the values , i am able to read pagefield.currentpagename but not all the other values
2.There are 200 values in the filter, based on other list -- i need to loop and delete some of these values from filter
Basically the first worksheet (equipment list) is set out for parts used for each individual unit which can be printed out for each unit.
The second worksheet is an equipment list, where each part number and quantity required is displayed which can be sent to suppliers for ordering.
At the moment I
-> copy the equipment list to a new worksheet -> do an advanced filter for "Unique records only" -> =SUMIF('Equipment List'!B:B,'Parts List'!A16,'Equipment List'!D:D)
which is much faster than the way we used to do it.
The problem is, when I add a part to the equipment list that is new, I need to go through the process again.
Is there a way to automate so any parts I add to the equipment list, if it is the first time the part number has been entered, it will copy to the parts list worksheet and update the qty column or if it is an existing part number it just updates the qty column?
The equipment list may potentially have up to 100 different drives, but using mainly the same equipment.
I created this sample on an old desktop using excel 2003 but I use 2010 on my laptop.
I am trying to improve a spreadsheet that I have to use everyday. I have a list with varying number of entries (different length every day) that has a number of columns including a column that contains machine codes (say 1,2,3,4,5...).
Each machine is programmed by a different person (say Andy,Ben,Craig,etc.).
One programmer can program more than one machine so for instance Andy is interested in programs for machines 1,3,5 and Ben in machines 2 and 4.
Every day we send a list of jobs that require programming which is pre-filtered for each programmer so if I send the list to Andy he only sees rows of data with machine codes 1,3 and 5.
I am trying to make a drop-down where I pick the programmer's name and the list automatically gets filtered for the machines for that specific person (e.g. 1,3,5).
I believe this could be done with advanced filtering but the problem is that the list length changes every day and the data is pasted into the spreadsheet from a different CSV file so I cannot define a set range for advanced filtering because it does not accept blank rows...
I'm using Excel 2003 and am trying to filter a list of values. The list has duplicate values in it. When I use Filter>Advanced Filter and select "Unique records only" the filter only eliminates some of the duplicates. If there are 4 values of 100, it may filter 2 of them or none at all. Ultimately I'm trying to end up with a list of values with no repeats.
I have a column with company names, with repeats, and I am trying to filter out the repeat entries and fill a combo box with these entries. I also want the box to update every time I add a new company to the list that isn't a repeat of one already on the list.
