Am trying to get the sheetcalculate to be triggered and execute VBA code when a formula changes its result from positive to negative. The code works fine if I trigger it with a command button click. Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a conditional formula that can be applied to a cell so that when I enter a number with a positive value, it:
1) Converts it to its negative equivalent value.
2) Displays in the value in the cell with parentheses around the number to indicate that the value is negative.
I am trying to do this without having to reference another cell to provide the entry or display the outcome.
How do I change a Positive number into a Negative number inside a cell formula?
I have a figure in Cell AE 101 which has the positive number 141
I have another cell W1 which has the positive number of 437
I want to create a formula in cell X1 that takes the number in cell AE 101 of 141 and convert the number inside the formula of 141 into a negative number of -141 and then subtracts that number from Cell W1 of 437 leaving an equation inside the formula to read. 437-141 = 296
Since the number in Cell W1 changes all the time and the number in AE101 Changes all the time the new formulated number in X1 will change all the time too as the cells get updated.
I've got a file with sum formulas and datas as well,i need to know when ever i'm getting a negative no as result, it should be zero or the cell should be empty.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a large dataset (24000 rows) that requires me to multiply two different columns of integers. In some cases, the two integers are both negative and multiplying them results in a product that is positive. I actually need that product to be negative rather than positive. I can't quite seem to figure out the best way to accomplish this.

At the moment in my column "0" I am referencing the number values in column CT from my access database (which gives me a standard retail price)
Code:
=IF(AF5="","",IF(OR('Line list'!CT2="",'Line list'!CT2=0,'Line list'!CP2=0),"0",'Line list'!CT2))
And then I use the following formula to work out the correct prices wholesale prices for different countries based on that.

I'm building a real estate payment calculator. I'm using the Payment (=PMT) function in Excel 2003. When I add the information that it asks for in its wizard, I receive the correct numerical figures but with a minus sign in front of it making the result negative, i.e. "-$630.13" instead of "$630.13."
Is this file corrupted or have I put something in incorrectly?
I'm looking to conditional format a cell/cells based on whether a formula result returns a whole number or not.
I don't want to include the formula in the sheet itself, just have that as the formula in the condition.
The formula will be along the lines of:
=IF(SUM(BB10/BA10)"a whole number",TRUE,FALSE)
My problem is, is that I don't know who to refer to "a whole number" in Excel formula language.
I am trying to make a column show the result of a formula as positive number only. Right now the column subtracts two other cells and displays the result. I am trying to make it show all the results, positive or negative as positive.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a column of numbers such as
1001150
1001124
2224445
I need add a period in the following locations
10011.50
10011.24
22244.45
I figured this out using a format rule of
#.##
I then need to make the numbers negative so I did
-#.##
but this doesn't "stick", if I filter the numbers by negative numbers, none of them show up. So how do I make the formatting actually become the numbers? Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;After doing some more research I found the "precision as displayed" option. I can't find this option on Excel 2007, but I moved the files into 2003 and the option doesn't do anything. It is not permanently changing the column that I have added the formatting too.
When I drag my VLOOKUP formula down a column in Excel 2010, the return value copies the formula result from the original VLOOKUP formula result. For example, if the first VLOOKUP returns a value of 0.5, I expect to see 0.5 or 1 in the cell below that one. However, I get 0.5 which is not the expected result for the cell below.
When, I click the fx on the cells below, the expected return values appear in the formula result. After I click OK, the expected formula results updates and now appears in the cell.
I'm not sure what is causing this issue. My computer was updated recently from an old machine to a new one. I have never experienced this issue before.
I go negative in one column I want it to show up in the next column as a positive number because when I add my income and subtract my bills and the negative from last month to get the what cash I'll have left it screws up because negative subtract a negative is a positive. So how do i get the sum of say B9 to from -$5.00 to +$5.00 into C4 so when i subtract C4 From my income it wont add to it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to do a formula that references a cell and returns a different result dependant on the number in the cell being referenced.
For example I've said if A1 has a 3 in it then put the word TEST as the result, plus if it has a 4 put the word RESULT.
What I wrote as my formula is as follows-
=IF(A1=3,"TEST")+IF(A1=4,"RESULT")
It works fine when I only use one result but goes wrong when I add two. If I change the words I want to show to numbers it comes up fine but with words it just returns a Value error.
I created a simple auto numbering function whereby Cell A7 contained =Row()-6, and Cell A8 contained =(A7+1). I then shift, and pasted the contents of cell A8 until cell A600. My aim is to simply copy the increments of 1 - 600 into another column. However when i copy and paste i'm also copying the initial underlying formula ie: =( A?+1), Is there a way to copy the results, not the formula?

Scenario
I have a tracking sheet that tracks development of work to be completed by individuals.
I have a due date column that shows when the work should be completed.
Once the work has been completed, the user enters his completion date.
I have a formula that provides an overdue warning (Completion date – today’s date) and some conditional formatting.
Problem
When I copy the formula through all the cells in the column I get a number (example 39504) and this changes everyday.
How can I eliminate this being shown as it throws out my average development day calculation?
I would like to add to this formula.... if the result of "$L$6-Q15", from below, is 0 or a negative number, then the desired result would be 0 for this formula.
Possibly wrapping IF AND somewhere in this...
=IF((O15+(K16*$L$5))>=$L$6,$L$6-Q15,K16*$L$5)
This may sound simple, but is not (it might be easy for you hopefully)...... I have a string of numbers and the first few numbers can be either postive, negative or zero....Later on, the numbers all become negative......
I need to find the the cell which contains the first negative number in the consequtive negative numbers.....The difficult part is the numbers before the consequtive negative numbers can be anything......
is there a way to format a cell that will make the number a negative number regardless of what number I type; whether I type a positive or negative.
What i'm trying to accomplish is enter a number and the number will be negative. I don't want to have to type a negative in front of the number.
Is there a way to a formula that would show the following? A plus B = C but if A is below 0, stop the value at 0 then add column B:
Columns:
A B C
-2 5 5
1 5 6
0 5 5
