I am currently working on a very large spreadsheet with a current size of 94mb. So obviously I have problems running and using it.
My question is a general one, I need to understand better why a spreadsheet gets so large. It has 55 tabs with the largest having 1000 rows. It also links in a number of places between sheets but also to external locations. I have moved all files that it is linked to in to the same file.
I am at the point where I am thinking about starting again! And I was wanting some tips or even a recommendation of a book that could help me optimize my spreadsheet going forward so to increase the speed but also reduce the size.
I am copying a large sheet into a spread sheet. The problem is one of the columns contain numbers with some cells having an asterisk at the end of the number. This causes problems with the formulas on other sheets that use this data. Can I use a formula or what is the best way to eliminate the "*".
I have a large amount of data in a single spread sheet. Each row has a branch number on it, there are multiple branch numbers. Each branch number is located in Column A. I want to separate this sheet and put all of the branch numbers into their own sheet. how to do this without manually copying and pasting?
I have included the table. What I want to do is in a user form pick a county ie Devon, Then by clicking "go" all entries that contain "Devon" are then copied to a " sheet 2" I don't want to use the Ctrl-F
I have an excel workbook with 2 sheets.For now, the first sheet is blank and the second sheet is a "standard" form we use at work.Now by doing this by hand, we have to change 4 individual cells, print it out, change the 4 cells again and so forth, which is tiring and time-consuming.Imagine having to do this ~90 times/day average.Here's the real question.
I want to be able to input my data on a sheet with this format:
Data is plain text, no formulas, no nothing.Plain simple text.What i want to do is, or at least i hope to, is as soon as i am done,i want excel to create a new Sheet with the name of the text input from row A (create a new sheet for every single data input though), copy the "standard" form from sheet2 and change the necessary cells provided from row b, row c and so forth.
So if my input is: NWS1790 XX-AAA RHO 155
I want it to create a new sheet with the name nws1790 by copying a pre-existing sheet but replacing certain cells with XX-AAA, RHO, 155.
I have a spread sheet (sheet2) that runs an add-in and does some calculations and arrives at a result which is a number in cell P6. All I have to do is type in a Stock Symbol in cell A1, and the sheet runs the add-in, calculation automatically. If I change the symbol in A1, the sheet re-runs the add-in/calculation and gives me the result for the new stock in cell P6.
Sheet 1, has a list of stocks, indexed in Column A.
Rather than me changing the symbol manually in sheet 2 cell A1, how can I automate it such that it will run the functionality automatically for each symbol in Sheet1 column A sequentially and then tabulate the results for each stock/symbol in Sheet 1 column B.
I tried to attach the sheet/book herewith, but could not. It is less than 100KB in size
I have a few hundred work orders done in Excel. Each spread sheet is a seperate file but all are identical in structure (basic order form). I need to change the value in the same cell on all the forms (manager's name needs to be changed on all our forms).
Question: How do I do this without having to open and edit all five thousand forms?
formular to show a coinage total in a spread sheet im sure its to do with < > but new to this and dont have a clue any help apreciated. This is what i am trying to achieve.
excel formula If A1= 10 Then B2= 0 If A1 =7 Then B2 = -3 If A1=13 Then B2= 3
I am working towards creating a spreadsheet for making a budget for a film + a system to monitor the expenses vs budget allocated on a day to day basis (to ensure the budget is not being crossed).
I would like to calculate the average number of hours worked per day in a particular week from my time sheet (in "Google spread sheets"). Daily hours are calculated in hr:min:sec format. Days not worked display 0:00:00. The formula I use to calculate total hours worked that weeK is for row 9 as follows: =INT( SUM(G9,K9,O9,S9,W9) )*24+LEFT(TEXT( SUM(G9,K9,O9,S9,W9) ,"HH:mm"),2)&TEXT( SUM(G9,K9,O9,S9,W9) , ":mm:ss")
How do I calculate the average number of hrs and minutes worked per day (excluding days not worked, cells containing 0:00:00)
I need to create a spread sheet that in Col A has 3 variables, each of which I need to triger 1)fill of that row, 2)different formula's in different columns within that row. Is this possible in excel?
Im trying to import data from a plumbing supply website to an excel spread sheet.
On the supply house web site, for each part catgory there are corresponding pages containing a price list data table.
there are from 1 to 3 pages (price list data tables) for each part category.
i can import data from page 1 and page 3 fine. When i try to import data form page 2, it returns no data, or imports page 3 (instead of 2)
I spoke to the person who designed the website and he said that it was a problem within excel and not a problem with his program. (said it was a problem with excel not being able to recognize the page)
Public Sub ListMyFiles() Dim fso As New FileSystemObject Dim fso_Folder As Folder Dim fso_File As File Dim file_count As Long
Set fso_Folder = fso.GetFolder("S:SHARED All of TransportationTraffic AssessmentMultiway Warrants") file_count = 1 For Each fso_File In fso_Folder.Files file_count = file_count + 1 Cells(file_count, 1).Value = fso_File.Name Next fso_File Set fso = Nothing End Sub This works great, but is there a way for the macro to recognize the file names that have already been added to the spread sheet and only return new ones that have been added to the folder?
How to come up with solution for preparing monthly time sheet for each employee from master sheet automatically by entering details in master sheet (Master sheet is all employees attendance sheet).
Just by entering data in master sheet it need to copy data to individual employee sheet. If I enter new employee name in master sheet can it creates one new sheet with same format by itself?
Data are Project, Emp Name, Position, Date, Day, Time In, Time out, Overtime or under time (if any)
I have total 30 employees and it is increasing day by day
I need a formula to figure the 5 lowest of last 6 sores, since everyone doesn't play every week there would be blank spaces and it needs to just give me the average if they have less than 6 scores!
I have manipulated the formulas until I am blue in the face and cannot get it to work;
I am trying to put together a projection spread sheet for a client for cash flow purposes. I have it laid out but I cannot wrap my head around the formula and I've tried a few. Here it is.
A1: Client Name B1: Invoice Date C1: Projected Due Date ( I have 45 days added to B1) D1: Invoice Amount E1: Jan F1: Feb G1: March H1: April I1: May J1: Juneetc...
I am trying to forcast out the invoice collection date (C1). So basically in the month of June column I am trying to say if C1 falls between June 1 & June 30th then it should equal D1 (the amount due in that month). So if the invoice has a due date (C1) that falls in that particular month than I am forecasting the cash flow in the month it's collected.
I have pieced together a VBA script to create a pivot table. Which is all great and works fine BUT for some reason it is now forcing the table onto a new worksheet. see code below, why it might be creating a new sheet. Alsothe sheet Worksheets("TICKETS BY OWNER & DAY") does exist.
Code: ' HERE WE CREATE THE PIVOT TABLES AND CHARTS FOR REPORTS Dim WSD1 As Worksheet Dim WSD2 As Worksheet Dim WSD3 As Worksheet
On the attached spread sheet here is what I am trying to do. In B2 I will either enter D (digital label) or F (Flexo label). With that than if a D is entered nothing else will happen with in spread sheet but if F is entered D23:Q40 will need to be cleared out and blank.
I am fairly new to macros and I am currently working on a project where I would like to create a 2 buttons which will filter by date and by owner. The spread sheet I have is fairly large and is added to weekly.
I have two objectives that I am trying to reach:
First I need to filter for all past due task items from the Thursday of the week I am working in back and for a specific person (owner) by the finish date
Second I need to filter for upcoming tasks one week out for a specific person (owner). The objective of this is so that on any given day a user can find any upcoming tasks that are due one week out.
If this is not an option. My thought was to create an input box where the user can input the date and the information on the spread sheet will pull all past due items or upcoming tasks. These two items need to pull seperatly not together.
I know I can create a macro by autofiltering by columns however I am trying to avoid having to go in and change the date each week.
Start date is column E Finish date is column F Owner is column L
I am setting up a spread sheet to calculate call duration it would be a great help if data could be entered using one hand IE use decimal point on the number pad instead of the colon is this possible. I will need to subtact start time from end time to get the duration
Each sheet has the same basic formatting. A1 contains a name. B1, C1, D1 are column headers. B2:B is data. C2:C is data and always stops at the same row B2:B range does. The only differences between the sheets is that they might not stop at the same row. I want a macro that merges A1 vertically as shown in my spread sheet to the end of column B and C. I want a border around the merged data, as well as around the B data and the C data individually.
i have a spread sheet which has a very complex simulaton in it. excel is not the ideal place for it, but it is not possible to port it wholesale to something more sensible. i have modified the code so that it is possible to run two copies of the spread sheet (in two seperate excel processes) at one time. Due to the dual core nature of the machine this has almost no overhead.
I have created a controlling spread sheet that is cabable of launching multiple copies of the simulation and starting the code executing. the problem is the controlling spread sheet always waits for the code to return before it continues, hence it would open two seperate versions of excel, start the first simulation executing and then wait until it completes before starting the next one. is there any way of starting a function in another work book without waiting for the execution to complete?
I have a large number of workbooks, each with one sheet. I need to do the following, and am too pressed for time to try and work it out from scratch, so am hoping to get some pointers on how best to set up the macro. All workbooks are in one folder.
From a Summary Worksheet:
Open Each Workbook Go to Sheet1 Copy values from "a2", "c7", "e26", etc. Paste as values in the Summary Worksheet on a new row. Close Workbook. Repeat until all Workbooks are extracted.
I had a data sheet that used about 20,000 rows, down to AF20000 or so. I deleted about 16,000 rows and now want to reduce the size of the worksheet so that when I hit Control+Shift+End, it takes me only to AF4000, not to AF20000. Can this be done without replicating into a new worksheet?
I have windows XP and xl2k. I have a single- sheet workbook (9MB) linked to another multi-sheet workbook of databases (20MB). The single-sheet workbook has about 100 pictures (30k ea) that, when a number is entered, searches the database. If no match is found for a given picture and product info, then the picture is deleted and the rows are hidden (macros). Usually, about 10 products are found in the database for any one entry.
My goal is that I can "save as > web page" and email these results off to my customer. The problem is the after-the-search result page is about 1MB and so too is the .htm file that is created when I "save as > web page." I was thinking that 10 pictures at 30k should be around 300k plus the formatting (no?). I cleared the "tools>option>general>web options>general>save any additional hidden data..." to little effect. Is there a macro that will delete the hidden rows which I should run AFTER the product search (because deleting them instead of hiding them messes up the macro run) - I'm sure that would help (right?). But my original thought was that the .htm file size would not be affected by hidden rows.
The per-item section of excel is 375 cells + the picture with simple font and formatting and no other objects, etc... When I delete the picture and save as > web page just this one-item section area (375 cells), the .html file is 37kb in size. That seems large to me (yes/no?). (10 x 37K = 370K before pictures!). This may be a reasonable file size, I'm no expert. I read a post where xl2003 has a compression application - is that what I need, or is there a 3rd-party app that can help me reduce the size of this file in htm. Or, is this the best I can expect from this method and I should be exploring elsewhere (metatags?).
