I'm currently creating an inventory tracking spreadsheet for my restaurant.
I'm using ="*"&A(x)&"*" to create the necessary barcodes. Some of my inventory numbers have leadings zeros that need to be included. The formula above is eliminating the 0's and how to get them to show. I've tried a custom number formatting but that isn't working for me.
I have a formula in column A of the following sheet. The problem is that when the entry in cell H contains a letter as well as a number then the formula in column a returns 0.
Also if the value for false in the forumula is changed from 0 i.e to 1 or 2, then a value is returned in column A (this is shown in the red highlighted cells).

Does anyone have any idea why this is?
I have a table arranged by columns into SETS of results. I am looking for a way to mark all the columns of a set as false if any one column of the set is false.

so for one cell it would be:
IF(NOT(ISBLANK($C$5)))
I think I need to add an OR in there somewhere to make it also depend on C6 but I just can't figure it out...
I have a client/sales sheet where I keep outstanding and paid bills information.
I want to get an indicator cell that shows if a bill was paid Y, or Not paid.
Since cell. However, if there is no invoice I want it to show,... nothing.
I used the invoice date cell C4 to see if there is an actual invoice. I thought the following formula would do it. However, if the invoice is paid and the outstanding amount W4 is 0.00 it returns a N, as Not paid????
C4 (date of invoice)
W4 (is amount due - payment =U4-V4)
(this is the formula I thought of)
=IF(ISBLANK(C4),"",IF(W4>0,"N", IF(W4=0,"Y")))

I am trying to Sum lines of info with "True or False" and "Yes and No". I would like to assign 1 to True and Yes and 0 to False and No when I total the rows. Never tried this in Excel, on Lotus and the formula does not work. I can find and replace, but I would like to be able to use a formula.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm currently working on creating a schedule for work. To make it simple, I have one row with 14 columns for each day of the week split into Time In and Time Out. These are formatted as time "1:30 PM". At the end of the row, I want it to sum the number of hours. I've done this as: =((D4-C4)*24)+((F4-E4)*24)+((H4-G4)*24)+((J4-I4)*24)+((L4-K4)*24)+((N4-M4)*24)+((P4-O4)*24). Which works fine until there is a blank cell.
The time is pulled from another worksheet with the name of the week. Sat and Sun I am off. So the formula goes like this: =IF(ISBLANK(SAT!B4),"",SAT!B$4). I've also tried =IF(ISBLANK(SAT!B4),NULL,SAT!B$4)
The sum at the end does not like the "" value or NULL value. It gives me a #VALUE error for any rows with blank cells. If I change the formula to exclude those weekend days, it works. So I know the error lies in what its putting down for the null value. I cannot have it read zero or anything else. I need it to stay blank but still calculate at the end.
Ok, this should be an easy one. I have a formula that one of the functions needs to check if certain cells are blank.
For example; I want to check if A2, B2 and C2 are blank.
Currently, the only thing that seems to work is,=IF(OR(ISBLANNK(A2),ISBLANK(B2),ISBLANK(C2)),"PASS","FAIL")
This is just a piece part of the entire formula and I have to evaluate the data based on multiple criteria. The ISBLANK() portion has to be able to evaluate at least 15 cells. Is there a way to evaluate the cells all at once instead of typing out ISBLANK() over and over. I have tried everything I can think of in regards to syntax.
Is there a way to use sumif on blank cells. That is I only want to add the contents of column Q provided the Column I corresponding rows are blank. I used this formula but it didnt work =sumif(I:I,ISBLANK,Q:Q)

=IF(ISBLANK(VLOOKUP($E39,'Players Scores'!$A$4:$AV$700,'Players Scores'!AA$3+6,FALSE)) = FALSE,VLOOKUP($E39,'Players Scores'!$A$4:$AV$700,'Players Scores'!AA$3+6,$E39),"")
I am using the above formula but would like it to get the value when the date has passed (when date has been inputed in another cell)
I have added an attachment, The formula begins at J44 to AY44 but when date has entered in the red (D44:D67)section I would like to retreive values for blue section(Q44 and onwards) and not the yellow section(J44 to P44)
This is so when players make a transfer it doesnt include the weeks before that date!!
I've attached a sample of what my problem is. I'm trying to keep track of critical ship dates using NETWORKDAYS. My formula works good until the 2 cells it's watching have no dates in them. This should be an easy fix but I can't figure it out. The formula reads =IF(ISBLANK(E3),NETWORKDAYS($A$2,F3,$A$17:$A$29),NETWORKDAYS($A$2,E5,$A$17:$A$29)). The cell range A2:A17 list the holidays for the year. Cell E3 is a ship date to teflon and F3 is a ship date of the completed job to the customer.

I4 is the same macro and returns 12/28/2011 10:48:00 AM
J4 calculates the difference between the two (I4-J4), but only recognizes business hours and business days (Monday-Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm)
I only want J4 to calculate if I4 is NOT BLANK.
These are in a table so J4 is trying to calculate when there is data in H4, but not I4, and returning a large number like 981583.22
When I try to apply IF(ISBLANK) logic to the formula in J4, I get an error that it exceeds 255 characters, even though it works fine if I am not trying to put the IF(ISBLANK) logic in.
Here is the formula in J4. I want it to automatically calculate if there is data in I4. Otherwise, I want it to return 0.
=IF(AND(INT(H4)=INT(I4),NOT(ISNA(MATCH(INT(H4),HolidayList,0)))),0,ABS(IF(INT(H4)=INT(I4),ROUND(24*(I4-H4),2),
(24*(DayEnd-DayStart)*
(MAX(NETWORKDAYS(H4+1,EndDt-1,HolidayList),0)+
INT(24*(((EndDt-INT(I4))-
(H4-INT(H4)))+(DayEnd-DayStart))/(24*(DayEnd-DayStart))))+
MOD(ROUND(((24*(I4-INT(I4)))-24*DayStart)+
(24*DayEnd-(24*(H4-INT(H4)))),2),
ROUND((24*(DayEnd-DayStart)),2))))))

Using data of unknown origin in Excel I found Isblank was giving a FALSE result on some apparently blank cells while giving a TRUE result on others.
Even if I used TRIM and CLEAN functions on the offending data and pasted the resulting values back the the original locations, the Isblank result was still FALSE. Also, the font colour was not set to white or transparent.
However, if I selected the cell with the 'invisible' data, clicked in the Formula Bar and pressed Enter without entering any new data, the problem disappeared for that cell. The problem also disappeared if I selected the problem 'blank' cell and pressed delete.
Can anyone explain this 'invisible data' and tell me how I can detect it using a function or formula?
I am currently using the function:
=IF(OR(ISBLANK(C8), ISBLANK (D8), ISBLANK (E8), ISBLANK (F8), ISBLANK (G8), ISBLANK (H8), ISBLANK (I8), ISBLANK (J8), ISBLANK (K8), ISBLANK (L8), ISBLANK (M8), ISBLANK (N8), ISBLANK (O8), ISBLANK (P8), ISBLANK (Q8), ISBLANK (R8)), "", IF(SUM(C8:R8)=0,"Yes", "No"))
and it is returning a #value error sign.
I want it to check if C8:R8 is blank, and if so, put nothing. But if not, use the formula: IF(SUM(C8:R8)=0,"Yes", "No"))
What i want to do is to look up of the value of home and away games seperatly. if there is no match for the lookup i get the "N/A" and if there is no value i get "0". If i get 0 the formula will calculate as a lost game.

I have used =IF(I6=J6,1,0) but I want a 0 value if the two cells are blank. How do add this to the formula?
I have 4 cols, x rows. I need Column C to check Column B for a numerical value, and if true, return the value in B, and if not true, then return value from A. Column B are functions formatted as general. The reference made by Sheet2!B is numbers formatted as text as to retain leading zeros. Here is what I have so far
=IF(ISBLANK($B10),$A10,$B10)
I am making some conditional formats for a document. One that I am trying to achieve is have a group of cells have a background color, but once the data has been added, the color go away.
This is what my conditional format looks like: =ISBLANK($A$1:$H$22) and chose the Green fill background. So, my understanding is, the cells should have a green background if they are blank, but go back to a standard format, once cells have data put in them.
I'm having problem with the ISBLANK function. I have attached my workbooks if someone would care to look at them. My macro basically loads two lists from other workbooks (old & new (attached)). It then finds out which entries are unique to each list, and places them in the EXCEPTIONS sheet.
Column C in these sheets should say TRUE or FALSE as to whether the corresponding cells in Column B are blank but it does not work. Book1.xls contains my macro.
Old.xls and New.xls will need to be selected when prompted.

I'm trying to use conditional formatting to highlight cells in a column that have less than 8 characters.
I know the LAN function, but I don't know how to make it work for the conditional formatting.
So 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

The IF function has the following syntax:

If I don't want the function to take any action in the case of the logical test is false, what do I write in the "value_if_false" field?
I have the following cells set up in a worksheet.
I have the following formula set for each of the cells -
=IF(U5>1,U5-1,T5)
=IF(T5>1,T5-1,S5)
=IF(S5>1,S5-1,R5) and so on.
Serial No.1 Serial No.2 Serial No.3 Serial No.4 Serial No.5 Serial No.6
#VALUE!#VALUE! #VALUE! #VALUE! 1005 1006
The T5, S5 and R5 are (I thought) the "False" value which would be returned, but all I am getting (if for example T5 was blank) is #Value
