Keeping Cells Waiting For New Data To Not Be Read As Zero Or Be Ranked

Aug 7, 2013

I am trying to rank a series of data. I have most of this figured out. However, the data that is being ranked is based on a sum of a range of cells. I have lines that are waiting for new information to be put in related to the values to be ranked and the value is reference a sum of blank cells currently since there is no data there and it is showing up as zero and therefore being ranked number 1 in my list. I basically want the ranking to rank the values 1-11 while putting all values that are zero to be put at the bottom of the ranking. Any way to do this without macros. I have been using the VLOOKUP and RANK functions for my ranking purposes.

I have tried using an if statement that made the cells #N/A if they were zero, however they remained at the top of my ranking.

Slowing Down And Waiting For Data Results Using VBA?

Aug 21, 2013

I have 2 sheets in a workbook

My VBA code gets data from a cell in sheet1 Then it paste that into a cell on sheet2 sheet 2 processes some data and produces a single cell result based on the pasted data Then that single cell result is pasted back into sheet1

Here is the problem. Sheet 2 takes a up to one second to produce the final result because it has to fetch some data from the web My code is pasting data back to sheet1 before sheet2 has had time to produce a final result

How can I make sure the data is finished on sheet2 before my code paste the result back to sheet1?

The variable MacdBlack is the being pasted back to sheet1 before sheet2 has had time to update it This is because sheet2 has to get data from the web which is slow

VB:
Sub SheetTest()
Dim x As Integer
Dim StartCell1 As String

[Code]....

Keeping Cells With Formula And Conditional Formatting Blank Until Data Entered?

Feb 22, 2013

I have a spreadsheet filled with formulas that depend on a value being entered into A2, A3, A4, etc... So column A starting at A2 is where I will manually input a number and the formulas I have in columns B, C, and D will import information from another sheet based off what is put in column A. In column D the formula I have to import data

is =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A2,Master!C:M,11,0),"").

This will import another number. Additionally in column D, I have conditional formatting that will return a red, yellow or green light based off the rule I have in place. Everything works fine, the only problem is that column D has a green light all the way down even without a value being placed in column A. I would like to find out a way to keep the cells in column D blank until a value is entered in column A. Also, if I go back and delete the value in column A, I would like the corresponding cell in column D to go back to blank as well.

Macros Waiting For User Input

Aug 11, 2009

I am trying to put together a macro that waits for the user to input data and then continue running the macro.

All user input is for one cell and I am looking at more of an entire sheet worth of data.

Here is the scenerio.

I have one tab that pulls data out of a sharepoint list. I then have another tab that I dump data from another database into and then use vlookups to compare the data.

The problem is I need it update the sharepoint list. Then wait for the user to dump in the new data from the external database before continuing the macro and working with the vlookups.

Currently I am working this by running a few different macros to do it all, but I would like to condense it down to running one macro.

Read Pdf Or Doc File Line By Line And Then Parse Data Into Proper Cells And Rows?

Feb 23, 2013

I have the data to import / read in a pdf, in a doc, or in an Excel worksheet whichever is easier to use. I need to import the data, parse it into the correct cells for that row and then repeat the import until the end of the file. Not all the cells are in each group of data to import, so those cells will be null for that row. Some of the data for one cell may be in up to 14 lines in the data file. I have be concatenating these data rows into one cell. There are 48,000 lines in the file to import or I would do this manually. I am assuming that doing this in VBA would be the most efficient method.

Unmerging Cells - Keeping Content

Dec 5, 2013

I have two columns, the left of which consists of merged cells. I got the document in this format, but to work with it, I need to unmerge the cells in the left column - simple enough.

However, when I do so, only the top cell in the group contains any actual data. What I get is this:

Age
18-20

21-25

26-30

And I would like it to look this way:

Age
18-20

Age
21-25

Age
26-30

Is there a simple way to get this result automatically when unmerging the cells? And if not, what is the fastest solution to avoid tons of manual copying?

Keeping Links Between Cells From Changing

Jan 31, 2013

In spreadsheet 1 I have a bunch of data, no formulas or anything, but data I need. I created spreadsheet 2 to take parts of S1 and have set links to cells in S1 so that when the data there is changed S2 gets updated automatically for me.

My problem is that when I add or delete rows or columns to S1 it's messing up my links in S2, not showing the right data. Issue with my linking that will tie the cells together when rows or columns are added or deleted.

Keeping Track Of Data Over Time Even If The Data Is No Longer Visible?

May 20, 2013

I work in a medical facility, and I need to track data I've entered representing patient visits indefinitely over time. I've attached a weekly grid to this thread that I use to record which patients have had visits during the course of the week. It sums their total visits on the right. I need to continually track these because every patient gets an insurance-mandated progress update after 10 visits. Unfortunately, they don't always show up, and the most I can possibly keep track of is two weeks, max, and most patients only get two visits per week. Is there a way to dump these sums into another column indefinitely?

Formulas To Distribute Ranked Items?

Jan 7, 2014

Our Favorite Gifts.xlsx

This is a simplification of what I really need. But say I have 5 people, and I have 5 gifts (A-E) Each person is in order by who gets first choice, second, etc. And each person has indicated from 1 - 5 which gift they like best. 1=most favorite 5=least favorite

I'm trying to create formulas to show who gets what. My actual spreadsheet has more people/items but is virtually the same thing.

In the attached example,the first person, Bill, gets first choice, then Mary, then Karl etc.
Bill would get Gift C. Mary would get gift A Karl would get Gift D because gift C and A are already taken.

The spreadsheet itself could be done differently if there's a easier/better way to get the data.

Creating A Ranked Table Using VLookup

Oct 8, 2009

This is a spreadsheet I'm using for my fantasy basketball draft that by adding information into table C3:N15 will populate stats into team sheets and output average stats into table D20:L31 and then create a rotisserie style scoring table outputted into B36:M47.

What I want to do (and have tried to do in table B51:M62) is output this to create a sorted ranked by Approx Score without using macros or VBA. I also want to do this using Excel 2003 rather than 07 (I'd love to take advantage of the AVERAGEIF function but i figure compatibility is my first concern).

The issue I have run into is that tie scores are going to make it difficult, and utilizing a table w/ summed ranked will lend itself to that happening...a lot. How can I solve this?

Ranked Unique And In Ascending Order

Aug 19, 2008

1) List of 500 employees, each allocated an account number where the payroll should be applied, in cells N1 through to N500.

2) Account numbers contain many uniques, ie employees within same department / function

3) require a list of unique account numbers, ranked in ascending order with the budget value, in rows O510 through to Oxxx (depending on how many unique account numbers exist)

4) this happens for 4 companies over 20 spreadsheet tabs for each company for each type of employment cost (each tab has different account numbers)

I know I can do this by manually copying the account numbers to another tab, sort them, remove uniques and then copy the result back o the summary area, for sumif formula, but was hoping for something a little more 'automatic', as these spreadsheets will be provided to payroll staff in each company for completion.

Rank Function In The Top Ranked Column

Jul 23, 2009

I have 3 columns, A B C: Distribution Center, Sales, and Top Ranked. What I am trying to get is a Rank function in the Top Ranked column that looks for the highest value in the Sales column, but returns the Distribution Center associated with this Sales value instead of the actual value. I could get this done with some helper columns and a VLOOKUP, but the report is rather large and the VLOOKUP not only slows it down but also pushes the file size over the limit. Also, I will be using this for metrics other than Sales where I'll be looking for the highest and lowest figures, so if a Max or Min function works better, that would be fine. I just haven't been able to figure out how to have it return the associated data instead of the ranked data.

Keeping Data Together While Adding Information?

Feb 23, 2013

I have two excel sheets in the same workbook. I've linked column B2 in Sheet1 with column A1 in Sheet2. It works great!

The only problem is that when I add a row in Sheet1, it appears in Sheet2, but the rest of the data on that sheet doesn't move alongside the rest of the rows. So if Sheet2 looks like this:

Abby 16
Amy 15
Jenna 14

And I add in another name in Sheet1, lets say Ben, then Sheet2 will look like this.

Abby 16
Amy 15
Ben 14
Jenna

Merging Two Columns And Keeping The Data From Both

Jul 26, 2006

There is one crucial feature to the 2007 Excel that has been overlooked.

Throughout all versions of Excel there has always been the feature of
converting text to table, however there is no way to do this in reverse.

There is no way to merge two columns of data and to keep all of the data
without one column overwriting the other. If only there were an automatic
way to merge two columns of data and to be able to place a delimited
character in-between, just like the “Convert Text to Columns Wizard”, except
in reverse. Currently, the only way to merge two columns of data is to
manually go row-by-row and cut and paste them together. However, for 500,000
rows of data… this is impossible. Or to use a function to merge two columns,
however this requires that the original two columns remain. This is also
unacceptable. If Microsoft really wants to make Excel more functional, how
can this vast improvement be overlooked?

Hyperlinks - Keeping Link With Data Not With Cell

Mar 7, 2014

I have a spreadsheet that I have various formulas and sheets. To simplify:

Sheet 1: Columns A & B have Name and Code Number. I can add additional names and code numbers to these two columns whenever necessary.

Example:

Tom 874
John 385
David 712

Hidden in adjoining columns are formulas to automatically sort them via Code Number. Next to that are the columns showing the sorted information, sorted by number.

John 385
David 712
Tom 874

Additionally, I have a seperate sheet for Tom, John & David. Since I put Tom in first, he's Sheet 2. John is Sheet 3, and David is Sheet 4. I can use hyperlinks so when I click on John, it goes to Sheet 3; David Sheet 4; Tom Sheet 2.

Now, let's say I add Kevin 192 to the next row. The hidden columns are set up so that it'll automatically resort Kevin to the top, with John, David & Tom in the next rows down.

The issue I have with the hyperlink is that it's cell specific, not content specific, as far as I know. I would like the hyperlink to move with John's info so that it would still go to Sheet 3. Same with David and Tom. Unfortunately, after the resort, If I clicked on Kevin's name (which is now at the top of the list), it would go to John's sheet, since the hyperlink is attached to that cell.

How to allow a hyperlink to remain with the content, versus the cell? I would prefer it to be not a macro, but I'll take a macro over nothing!

Keeping Cell Formatting When Copying Data

Oct 28, 2013

I have a piece of code that runs through various excel files and takes the data (minus the header) and pastes that into a separate workbook. The piece of code that does the actual copying i think is this (i have used code from the msdn website)

Code:
With sourceRange
Set destrange = destrange. _
Resize(.Rows.Count, .Columns.Count)
End With
destrange.Value = sourceRange.Value

I have tried replacing the sourceRange.Value with sourceRange.Text however when i do that it will copy nothing any more.

Auto-populating A Table Based On Ranked Values?

Jan 21, 2014

I am looking to create a table with ranked projects from a different tab that is able to pull data from the same tab and change based on value updates. It is difficult to explain, so I have attached the file below.

What I am looking to do is pull the ranked projects from tab #7 - Scoring to tab #5 - Final list. Each project has a unique ID#, but a lot of the columns I need populated are not unique. I tried using a combination of arrays, but it always returned a #value into the cells.

P.s: In tab #5 - Data sheet, the formulas in I5 and P5 work, but are pretty ridiculous, and I'm pretty sure there must be an easier way. I was looking up values from the 8-budget tab to try and determine which group column H values were from. The only complication I was having was that a project can be allocated to either a functional unit, or group so I need to have the "group" total as independent, not just as a sum of the functional unit totals. Like I said, these formulas work,

Creating An Ordered (ranked) List Within A Single Cell

Mar 22, 2007

I'd like to create, in a single cell, what we call a "geochemical signature".

I have data that looks like this....

AreaID, Cu, Au, Pb, Zn, Sb
2, 5.1, .1, 0, 2.2, .2
3, 0, 0, .1, .2, 0

And I'd like to add a column onto the end of the table that returns a value like this...

AreaID, Cu, Au, Pb, Zn, Sb, Signature
2, 5.1, .1, 0, 2.2, .2, Cu Zn (Sb Au)
3, 0, 0, .1, .2, 0, (Zn Pb)

Such that a single cell has an ordered (ranked) list of the elements that relate to that AreaID. Also, any element with a value < 1 is returned in brackets, and elements that have a value of 0 are ignored.

Merging Duplicate Rows And Keeping Original Data

Feb 18, 2014

I need to merge rows with duplicate values in column A (Patient Name being the most important one), with columns B, C, & D usually having different isolated values as well. Columns E, F, G, H, & I are date columns, but the data is always going to be the number 1, meaning a patient was seen once that day (if they were seen two times that day for different reasons, information would be in an unmerged second row [same patient name listed in two separate rows], where columns B & C would be different). Column J is an autosum of columns E through I if that makes a difference. Column K is a notes column. The data that needs to be merged is always added to the bottom of the spreadsheet in order to show that a patient was seen on any given day, with columns B through K almost always being blank. Example:

Column A---------Column B---Col C----Col D--Col E--Col F--Col G--Col H--Col I--Col J---------Col K
Patient Name-----Therapist---Shared--%P----2/3----2/4----2/5-----2/6----2/7---Total Visits--Notes

Alice Alpha--------AB----------PT-------1---------------------------------------------0-------------blah
Boris Beta---------BC----------SELF----2----------------------------------------------0------------blahblah
Carl Carlisle-------CD---------PTA------3----------------------------------------------0
Carl Carlisle-------AB---------SELF-----2----------------------------------------------0
Donny Delta-------DE---------PT--------1---------------------------------------------0
Ernie Elephant-----EF---------PTA-------2---------------------------------------------0
Alice Alpha-----------------------------------------------1
Carl Carlisle--------------------------------------1--------------1---------------1
Ernie Elephant-------------------------------------------1---------------1

This is what I'm hoping it can look like:

Column A---------Column B---Col C----Col D--Col E--Col F--Col G--Col H--Col I--Col J---------Col K
Patient Name-----Therapist---Shared--%P----2/3----2/4----2/5-----2/6----2/7---Total Visits--Notes

Alice Alpha--------AB----------PT-------1---------------1-----------------------------1-------------blah
Boris Beta---------BC----------SELF----2----------------------------------------------0------------blahblah
Carl Carlisle-------CD---------PTA------3-------1--------------1---------------1------3
Carl Carlisle-------AB---------SELF-----2----------------------------------------------0
Donny Delta-------DE---------PT--------1---------------------------------------------0
Ernie Elephant-----EF---------PTA-------2--------------1---------------1-------------2

In this example Carl Carlisle is being seen for two different things, however how would it be written so the macro would know which Carl Carlisle row to merge with? I'm thinking that before running the macro I could manually enter the information into column B so it knows which Carl Carlisle row above to merge with.

Data always starts at row 14 (row 13 is frozen pane header column), and extends to a row that is different every week depending on how many people happen to be in the list.

I found something from this link that looks very similar to what I need, but with no knowledge of coding, I have no idea how it should be tweaked: Merge Duplicate Rows Keeping Data In Same Columns

I know I'm asking a lot, but the amount of time this takes to manually go through hundreds of rows of patient names every week is incredibly time consuming, and I have too many other things to stay on top of at work for this to drag me down day in and day out.
