Indent Data Based On Adjacent Symbol
Sep 21, 2007
I am trying to do some automatic formating of a list of data. I can accomplish 90% of what I would like to do via a simple keystroke record macro. What I cannot do is shift the contents of Column B based on the contents of Column A. Column B will have to be shifted to the right 1, 2, 3 . . . cells. Below is an example. Column A symbols as it relates to number of cells to shift Column B
Symbol......Amount of shift
-[-]..........0
--( ).........1
--[-].........1
---( )........2
---[-]........2
----( ).......3
I have included a sample .xls showing the Original Data and the Desired Output

I am trying to do some automatic formatting of a list of data to create an indented BOM structure in a similar way to DDiddy's post "Indent Data Based On Adjacent Symbol" (Indent Data Based On Adjacent Symbol.)
But want to set the IndentLevel for Column B by values in Column A. I.e. a value of 1 in Cell A1 indents Cell B1 by 1.
Username shg posted some code that he suggests should do this, but I failed to get it to work. Can anyone explain shg's code or suggest an alternative that would work, preferably automatically upon entering a value in Column A?
I'm only just starting to learn Excel macro's, so please forgive me if this post is in any way unclear.

I need advice regarding the best way to subtotal data that has been exported from SQL Reporting Services to Excel. Formulas are not exported with the worksheet and need to be re-entered. The data is contained in three levels, but second level is not always present (see attached). The Level 1 data has a "pale blue" background and desciptions start in column A. Level 2 data has a "Gray-25%" background and starts in Column B. Detail level data has no fill color and descriptions for it start in Column C. The detailed data should be subtotaled in the Level 2 line directly above it (if available). The Level 2 data should be subtotaled in the Level 1 row directly above it. If no Level 2 row exists beneath a Level 1 row then all of the detail rows below should be subtotaled in the Level 1 row.
I have looked at options for keying on the color or the column contents for triggering when to calculate the subtotals, but nothing that I have tried works. The attached sample file illustrates how the data looks after being exported from Excel. The number of detail rows may change at any time as new projects are added.

I had an idea that I could use the level of indent in the first column to provide the name for the range. The easiest way to explain is with the example spreadsheet I have attached
Cells C5:C10 show how the naming convention should look like, basically Indent Level 0 returns a prefix (Sheet_Name_Prefix) and its corresponding row entry in Column A. Level 1 should return the last Level 0 name and its corresponding row entry in Column A.
I had a go at the code and it works for Level 0 but I can't get it to put to Level 1.
Sub Test()
'Dimension Variables
Dim RowTitleEntries As Integer
Dim NameLoop As Integer
Dim IndentLevel As Integer
'Set the value of RowTitleEntries
RowTitleEntries = 6

I have the following formula in cell H2:
=AND(EXACT(G2,UPPER(G2)),(LEFT(G2)>="A")*(LEFT(G2)<="Z")*(MID(G2,2,1)>="0")*(MID(G2,2,1)<="9")
*(MID(G2,3,1)>="A")*(MID(G2,3,1)<="Z")*(MID(G2,4,1)>="0")*(MID(G2,4,1)<="9")*(MID(G2,5,1)>="A")
*(MID(G2,5,1)<="Z")*(MID(G2,6,1)>="0")*(MID(G2,6,1)<="9")*(LEN(G2)=6))
I would like to prohibit data entry in G2 if H2 reads "false" and allow data entry in G2 if H2 reads "true" .

I am limiting choices in a certain cell to a list via data validation (using data validation, allow - list and pointing to the source). I want to limit the next set of choices in the next column (in this example in Column C) for the user based on the choice made in the adjoining cell. For example to keep it simple I will use the following: if the user selected "Fruit" in B1, then the options in C1 would only show "Oranges","Apples", "Pears". If however the user selected "Veg" it would only show "Cucumber", "Lettuce", "Spinach", "Radishes" in the drop down in column C. I can put a prefix in front of the column C data validation list if that is needed to narrow down e.g. FR-oranges, FR-apples etc.
A B C
1 Fruit Oranges
2 Veg Lettuce
3
Data Validation source for Column B (H2:H4)
Fruit
Veg
Nuts
Data Validation for Column C: (I2:I10)
Oranges
Apples
Pears
Cucumber
Lettuce
Spinach
Radishes
Almonds
Peanuts

What I have is an output of about 30 worksheets of individual stock data in a workbook, all with the same column headings, laid out like the following (so that the Column Headings are stock data as recorded on the Date in Column A):
<Stock Name>
<Date> <Price> <Price to Book> <etc.>
with the stock titles also as the names of the worksheet.
What I want to do is create a macro that outputs to a single worksheet where I can input the stock name and a certain date for the stock, and then have it insert the appropriate row from the stock's worksheet underneath.
So, if I say I want the data for Stock A on March 24, 2007, I can input those two and have it output the appropriate rows from the worksheet.
Or, more generally, I can create a list of stock names and dates, and have the macro output that data underneath.

In general it looks like this: All in one column
flight 1.1
flight 1.2 paid $50 owes $100
flight 1.5 paid $80
pass paid $125
ground 1.2 flight .9
checkout flight 1.2 paid $76
I need to extract the numbers with a $ sign into a separate column. to look like this:
flight 1.1
flight 1.2 paid $50 owes $100...........50..........100
flight 1.5 paid $80...........................80
pass paid $125...............................125
ground 1.2 flight .9
checkout flight 1.2 paid $76...............76
.............. representing separate columns

How to remove all the " symbol out of a string of data?
The " symbol appears at different places and i need to remove them all completely. the Find & Replace tool doesn't work because when you have say 3/4" and want it to just read 3/4 it automatically converts it to 03-Apr. even when you have changed the cell formatting to text.

I was wondering if it was possible to do a SUMIF function depending on the indent level, e.g. sum all of the values which have an indent of 2 in the row headings.

I need to determine if any of the cells selected by the user have an indent level equal to 1 and if so then have them confirm the action. the below works well if the user only selects one cell but if the select 2 or more and any of the selected cells has an indent level greater than 1 it doesn't show the confirmation.

I'm working with text cells I get this tiny indent on the left hand side of a cell about the size of one hit of the spacebar button.
Excel doesn't recognise this as an indent and I can't get rid of it. It's, pardon my french

I have a spreadsheet with a list of account numbers and values(sheet1) and on a seperate sheet (sheet2) a list of all unique account numbers that appear in the transaction data sheet.
What I am trying to do is get a total sum for the values of each account number. What I am getting well I'm not quite sure what I'm getting. The problem appears to be when the xSubtotal variable is reset to 0 at the end of calculating all the values for the account number.

I am trying to get the sumproduct of a column of amounts based on the adjacent cells ID code.
For example column B will have codes 1FHD, 2FHS, 3FHG etc. these codes will be mixed otherwise I would have just did a sum of the cells.
Column C would have dollar amounts.

How would I make cells in column A to C be highlighted yellow, of which is 0.02 in value be higher than in compared with the adjacent cell in column D ? It is easy to use condition format function to setup the conditions in 1 row. The problem is there are thousands rows in the sheet(of which represents an individual file by each row), and need to have the conditioning format applied on each row independently. How can it be done w/o the need to have format painter applied line by line, of which is a very time consuming.

I have been reading through trying to find a similar post but the nearest i could find was one dealing with numbers rather than text. This is how the workbook looks.
Column A contains a list of numbers based on vehicle types. Column B contains a list of vehicle names.
A B
1 Car,
1 Taxi,
2 Bus,
2 Lorry,
3 Skateboard,
3 Bike,
1 Motorcycle,
What I am looking for is the best way to combine the text from column B depending on the value of column a. the finished results would then end up as: "Car,Taxi,Motorcycle,", or "Bus,Lorry," etc. This is just a simple list.. The one I am working with has around 2500 entries. I have been trying to do this using the CONCATENATE function and IF statement but it's just not working..... My head is ready to explode

What I am attempting to do is find the MIN value in Column C where values in Column A are equal.
The data would look like this
A B C D (D:D is where the "MIN" Formula will be)
Scope1 NameA $100
Scope1 NameB $145
Scope1 NameC $115 $100 (I want the min value to show up here)
- (this would trigger a break between scopes, and provide a conditional format separator)
Scope2 NameE $450
Scope2 NameG $345
Scope2 NameX $415 $345
-
So every time I put a "-" I would like the MIN formula to trigger in (Row#-1,D)

Set cell fill color based on number of adjacent cell
I am doing a research with the following information. In column B, I have the name of the buyer company, column B cells that contain numbers 1, 2 or 3 opposite the company name in column B depending on certain characteristics. I would like to mark the companies in column A in different colors (or some other recognizable way) as described below.
columns result
col A col B col C
7 Materials Inc 3
7 Materials Inc 2
6 Rayon Inc 3
6 Rayon Inc 3
6 Rayon Inc 3
8 Commun Corp 1
8 Commun Corp 2
8 Commun Corp 3
8 Commun Corp 2
8 Commun Corp 1
I would like to have on output in column A as shown above according to the following criteria:
4: if there are only 1 in column C opposite the specific company in column B
5: if there are only 2 in column C opposite the specific company in column B
6: if there are only 3 in column C opposite the specific company in column B
7: if there are 1, 2 and 3 in column C opposite the specific company in column B
8: if there are 1 and 2 in column C opposite the specific company in column B
Any suitable function in excel or Macros that can work with the formatting, because I have tens of thousands of companies and it will take too much time to do it manually.

I want the font of a value in a cell to turn green or red based on the value of the cell below it - NOT based on a set value or range like all of the other examples are based on. I want to apply a formula or condition to the entire table.
Column a has the date for each value, newest date is row 1 and oldest date is row 250. Column b-k has the number value for each animal species we are tracking. If there are more animals than the day before, the value went up and I want the font to be green. If there are less animals than the day before, then value went down and I want the font to be green.
There are about 250 rows in each table and I have 4 tables. I thought I could do conditional formating but I can only find how to change font color based on a set value. For instance, for each day there are over 10 turkeys, then it would be green. That is NOT what I want, see below:
Mon 5 no color change
Fri 5 color change to green
Thu 4 color change to red
Wed 5 color change to red
Tue 7 color change to green
Mon 5
date looks more like this - col a is date, col b is turkey, col c deer, etc
Mon 5 4 3 4 2
Fri 5 3 4 2 7
Wed 5 2 7 1 0
Tue 7 4 6 5 9
Mon 5 1 1 5 4
I would think this is similar to daily stock prices, if data goes up then it is in green, but if the price goes down then in red. Not based on purchase price (set value), but based on previous days closing price. For this report, I only care about the change day to day.

Is there a way to shade a cell based on whether the adjacent cell is shaded? I found some ways to do this with VBA but I was looking for a non VBA solution if possible. So basically if cell C5 is highlighted yellow I would want cell D5 highlighted yellow too, regardless of the values inside the cell. Is this possible without VBA?

I have a column with random values that are generated my my machinery.I should not sort them, because they provide me with the performance graph. Lets say i have column "A"
0
2
9
9.5
30
90
22
15
9
0
As the max value of this is 90, and its 10% of MAX is 9, which occurs at 3rd and 9 th positions.I need to find the average of its adjacent range, with zeros not considered.It has to calculate the max value in the column, find 10% of max and do average of adjacent column from the sl. no of first occurrence of 10% value in first column to the sl no of last occurrence of 10% value in first column.
the exact 10% value may not always exist. 10% of 90 is 9, but if the max value is 94, the 10% would be 9.4 which doesn't exist. then it has to take the nearest available predecessor in that case.i get values in decimals mostly and only some of them are perfect integers, thus this consideration goes with it,and also, my range actually is B14:B10013
i would most probably have the 10% value within the first 50 "non zero" entries and reoccurring somewhere probably within the last 50 "non zero" entries.

I am really stumped at this particular point in my coding. What I am trying to do is to have a user input an ID number. When they click OK, I want to find the ID number and then subtract 1 from a number that is 13 columns over. So if the ID number is "123456789" and that matches the value in A3, I want to subtract 1 from the amount in M3 (leaving the new value in cell M3). So, if M3 was 30, now it would be 29.
