I have a column of about 15,000 numbers that I need to update. They are all 6 digits long and I need to insert characters at 3 different points. The numbers currently look like
234567
123456
456789
and need to be changed to
23-45-67
12-34-56
45-67-89
I have recently purchased a new GPS for my fishing boat. I am trying to transfer my old coordinates from one unit to the other. I am using a .csv file to achieve this. Can some kind please let me know (and possibly tell me) if there is way to insert characters and spaces in to multiple cells. I have over 800 individual coordinates to modify to the new gps and this would take a long time to achieve individually.
I need to replace this: 12.34.567 to this: 12 34.567 N
and this: -1.23456 to this: 001 23.456 W
I need to insert 00 if the string of text = 13 in a specific column.
eg. Column K can contain any amount of lines of data. The data will either be 15 or 13 characters in length. If its length is 15 its fine, if its 13 I need to get it to 15 characters.
The first 6 characters are letters so if the length is only 13 I need to add the 00 in after the last letter.
Is there a way of amending the following line of code so that it selects multiple data points in a data series in a chart (e.g points 14,15,16)?
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(2).Points(14).Select
I am updating a sports competition ladder. There are two aspects to compiling the table I would like to automate but have been unable to find out how via the excel documentation.
The aspects are.
1. When a team loses by a margin of seven points or less below the total points scored by the winning team then the team is awarded a single "1" bonus point that contributes to their overall competition points tally.
2. When a team scores four tries or more they are likewise awarded a bonus point.
I require formulas that will automatically calculate the bonus points into a cell.
Situation One
cell 1 = Points For (eg. 17)
Cell 2 = Points Against (eg. 24).
In this instance the team did not win. They scored 17 points and the winning team scored 24 points. Therefore the team lost but lost by seven points and is therefore entitled to one (1) bonus point.
SOLUTION NEEDED - I need a formula that will calculate whether cell 2 is seven or less than cell 1, and if so automatically place a total of "1" in cell 3.
Situation 2
Cell 1 = Tries Scored (eg. 5)
In this instance the team has scored five tries. They have scored more than four tries or more and is therefore entitled to one (1) bonus point.
SOLUTION NEEDED - I need a formula that will scan the number in cell 1. If this number is 4 or more, then a total of "1" should be automatically placed in Cell 2.
I have looked into the excel help but to no avail and the search terms are so broad it was a nightmare trying to search the forums.
I have a number of time data elements of different recordings that i would like to be able to use one formula in one cell and have it give me to total time. For example:
00:03
00:55
00:47
00:05
All in one cell (i.e., not having each data point in a cell), I would like to have the formula tell me that these four recording times equal 00:01:48 (i.e., 1min 48 sec).
I don't know if I am asking for something impossible,but is it possible to create a MACRO to automatically add or subtract 10 to whatever number is in the cell? for example:
A1= 20
I would like to have a macro that lets you either add 10 to it to become 30 or subtract 10 to it to become 10.
would like the points in my scatter chart to be displayed
with the same font color that is in the Data cells being charted.
the cells for the scatter chart contain 2 font colors - red and blue
e.g.
Cell Cell
a2 is red b2 is red
a3 is blue b3 is blue
Conditional formatting is lacking. I need to colorize each data point on the graph according to a characteristic cell (not an x-axis or y-axis variable). I have done something similar by simply graphing a group of points as a series and changing the series color. I'm looking for a more graceful solution. From the example picture attached (i would attach a workbook, but the data is sensitive), a point is charted based on two variables and colorization is attempted based on the third variable. i would find the range of the third value, assign a gradient based on the spread, and colorize each point. My VBA syntax is lacking for chart functions
View 7 Replies View RelatedSo we have people's names in a table. First name in one column and last name in another column. We have a 3rd column where we can use 8 characters to do a combination of First 5 of Last Name + first 3 of first name. However, if someone's last name is only 3 or 4 characters, we'd then want to take more from the first name to fill out the 8 characters.
So:
Charles Johnson -> Johnscha
John Smith -> Smithjoh
Willian Wu -> Wuwillia
What's the best way to do that without creating some crazy formula with tons of if/thens?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a VLOOKUP formula in cell X1. I am trying to insert all the below 10 IF statements in it. I have three problems:
A) Excel does not allow inserting that many conditions in one cell.
B) Don't want to use VBA.
C) VLOOKUP doesn't work, since the table array contains formulas. I can't have the table arrays change from 1s to 2s, when copying & pasting X1 to X2.

I have two images that have a name on each sheet for reference. One is a thumbs up image, one is a thumbs down. They are both named tu_image and td_image respectively. I want to show the thumbs up image if a particular cell has a value of 10 and show the thumbs down image if that cell's value is < 10.
This check and display needs to be done about 20 times on different sheets and with different values. (i.e. Thumbs down should only show when the value is < 20, instead of 10.) Ideally this should take place when the workbook updates with new data. Is this possible?
I have a simple formula, =IF(A1=0,"",A1) to replace 0 with blank. However ISBLANK doesn't recognize the result as blank, because it's really testing for an empty / unused cell rather than a blank one.
Is there something I can replace the "" with so that ISBLANK returns true?

My situation is like this:
-I have two sets of data in two different sheets. The data is similar, but it is taken in two ferent times, so there are some cells, which content has changed.
-I want to make a macro that identifies the changes in the latter (newer) sheet compared two the older one and to:
a) Highlight the cells (this works)
b) Add a comment to each cell that has changed so that the content of the comment is the content of the "older" cell. (so that one can easily see from the newer sheet that highlighted cells have new values and the old values are in the comment) (this is not working)
Here's my code so far. Like I said I can't make the comment work. I tried it with the same text in all comments ("test comment") and it worked but I can't make it to go and get the data from my older sheet.
OLDER = my sheet with old data
NEWER = my sheet with updated data
NEWTABLE = my table on the NEWER sheet where I want to check the changes

I'm using excel 2003 and was wondering if I could insert html around the cell data in a faster way than cutting and pasting it. Here is an example of a column and what I would like to do.
