List All The Combinations Of A Group Of Cells Containing Letters, But Not Numbers
Feb 9, 2008
I have 7 cells containing strings but not numbers on a row.
Now I want to list out all the combinations of drawing out 3 cells out of these 7 cells while the remaining cells that haven't been drawn out could also be listed out one column next to the drawn cells.
For example, I got 7 cells like this.
A B C D E F G (each letter in ONE cell)
And I want to list out all the combinations like this:
ABC DEFG
ABD CEFG
ABE CDFG
ABF CDEG
etc.
For more details, please refer to the attached sample (an .xls file being zipped).

My store uses a retail price "code" wherein a price like 99 in expressed as a
code like "PP"--exchanging the number digits 1-0 as letters.
Is there a function to do this automatically?

I need to be able to create a list of all combinations (where position doesn't matter, therefore its not a permutation) of a list of numbers with repetition enabled. I need to provide anywhere up to at least 10-15 numbers if possible and they are integers normally between 1 and 72. Example: (for numbers 1, 2, 3)
VB:
1
2
3
[Code]....

Am looking for an easy way to produce a list of combinations (maximum 6 numbers) from a range of numbers listed in 6 different columns:
Example
Column A contains : 1,2,3
Column B contains : 7,8,11,15
Column C contains : 12,16,18,19
Column D contains : 17,30,31
Column E contains : 30,31,32,33,34
Column F contains : 37,39,40
The rules are:
In each combination of 6 numbers, numbers should always be taken from ALL 6 columns. In each combination, numbers cannot repeat.
show me a formula to arrive the results.

I'm working on a function that will sum a row of cells containing letters and numbers. I am currently using :
=SUMPRODUCT((0&SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(B5:S5,"T",""),"TP",""),"TPE",""),"P",""))+0) as my base.
Right now the formula will work with T, TP, and P; however as soon as I type TPE I get #value.
Either way you get the point of what I am trying to do, however my cells can contain any one of the following combinations:
T,TP,TPE
P,PE,
E

I have a column of numbers and want to make sure everything has been entered correctly from our scanning software. Basically, I want to automatically highlight any cell that has any letter in it (e.g. z12o2 instead of 21202 or R705 instead of 5705), ignoring any cells that contain only numbers. I haven't had any luck using conditions based on formulas like =ISTEXT.

So we had a month long, company paid (woohoo!) "weight watchers" challenge. On 1 worksheet ("Stats"), I have the Name of every Employee (A Column), then their Start Weight (B Column), End Weight (C Column), Department (D Column) and finally Location (E Column).
I know how sensative some people can be about their weight, so I locked the page and created another worksheet named "UI", which will display the "Average End Weight" for each department. So Human Resources would be the department in cell A2 on the UI sheet, with City 1 being the Column Header in cell B1. There are 8 cities (offices) and 23 departments.
So, for cell B2, I want to scan through the "Stats" worksheet and locate all of the cells in the department and location columns that read "Human Resources" and "City 1" respectively. Then grab the "End Weight" for every row that meets these 2 criteria, add them up, and divide by the number of "End Weights" that were grabbed.
My solution would be to make a separate column for each department (and then each city, so essentially 8 columns to represent all the cities for each department), use a nested (maybe 4) IF statements to then list only the end weight if that particular row meets the criteria, then at the bottom of each separate column, add all the shown numbers up and divide, then draw the information from THAT number into the "Average" cell on the UI worksheet. But it isn't very dynamic and if i want to use this sheet next year, there will be more employee info to be added and it would be a mess..further more, it would be...what...23 Departments x 8 Cities x 155 employees = ~28,500 added cells.

I need to format a column of numbers so that it will sort alphanumerically.
All the numbers have 4 digits, and some of them have an extra letter on the end eg A B C
How can I custom format the column so that I get the numbers in order and the letters in sequence with them?

I have a column in one of my spreadsheets that I would like to split. There's currently not anything that can be used as a delimiter, nor can I use fixed width. the cells in question start with numbers and end with letters.

I have an excel sheet here with the data as
1.0 Develop Vision and Strategy
1.1 Define the business concept and long-term vision
1.1.1 Assess the external environment
1.1.1.1 Analyze and evaluate competition
1.1.1.2 Identify economic trends
1.1.1.3 Identify political and regulatory issues
1.1.1.4 Assess new technology innovations
1.1.1.5 Analyze demographics
.... etc
I need to split this into two columns column A should contain 1.0 and column B should contain Develop Vision and Strategy . Ex: 1.1.1.2 Identify economic trends in column A then column B - 1.1.1.2 column C - Identify economic trends.

I have a sheet with part numbers, costs and wish to add varying number to the cost in each row, based on a certain aspect of the part number:
A
B
C
[Code].....
In the example, 01/1X/2X/3X are the differentiating aspects of the part number. To rows in column A containing 01 (preceding the dash) I want to add nothing, 1X+.75,2X+1.5,3X+9.
I have researched the nested IF formula and can use it in a test as long as column A contains either numbers or letters. The problem I have is because there is both numbers and letters, the logical argument won't validate "if true". Here is my formula (omitting my attempts with parenthesis etc. around the letter in the logical argument):
=IF(IF(A1=1X,B1+.75,IF(A1=2X,B1+1.5,IF(A1=3X,B1+9,B1)))

I have column of cells containing entries such as V1, V3 and V7. I'm trying (and failing) to come up with a formula to separate the numbers from the letters and add them together: V1, V3 and V7 would together give 11.
I can use the MID worksheet function to separate my numbers from my letters on a row-by-row basis, but I can't work out how to do the whole thing in one fell swoop. =SUM(MID(A1:A10,2,2)) doesn't work, for example.

Besides putting a space and running text to columns I'm not sure how.

Conditional formatting. I want to change the color of a group of cells based on data in another group of cells. Example:
If cells G8 and G9 (which are merged) are between 80% and 94%, then I9,I10,I11 (which are merged) will turn Yellow. Also, under the same scenario, IF G8 and G9 is greater than 94%, then cells I9, I10, I11 will turn Red.

I am trying to write VBA code that groups cells between blank rows and inserts a message if a string of text (a name) is missing from the entire group. I want the code to search cells in column A and group the cells between blank cells. Use the name I input in an input box as the search criteria and insert a message in the Column C next to the last blank cell in the group and then move on to the next group and highlight the cell in red with bold text. I am including a spreadsheet with an example of what the sheet should look like before and after the code is run.

I have a spreadsheet wtih a number of rows that contain answers to different criertia in each column.
The row may therefore have cells that either have numbers or letters.
Column A will be the title of the row.
I want to write a function to find the average value of the numbers in any row with title 'x'.
So it would look down column A, and look for those called 'x', and then average all the numbers across all those rows.
I have tried to use =averageif, but I think the fact there are letters in the cells being assessed (which I just want to be ignored) creates an error.

I have stamps of 2 denominations: .32 and .33
I want to know how I would write/format a spreadsheet that would tell me what are all the possible outcomes between the two numbers and what the components of these two numbers would be.
For example.
(8 * .32) + (3 * .33) = 3.55
So somewhere I would be able to see that in order to achieve 3.55 I need (8) .32 stamps and (3).33 stamps

Lets say I have 10 numbers (1,2,4,5,6,8,9,12,19,13). Now, I am trying to get a list of all possible combinations (single digit, two digit, 3 digit, 4 digit... 13 digits).
Assume that the 10 numbers (this is a variable, it can sometimes be 9 or 11 etc) are in column A and I want all the possible combinations in column B.

Is there a way in Excel to identifying certain combinations of numbers? If tried every IF statement I know.
I have an Excel with two columns of numbers and I need to identify their combinations.
18
18
18
19
18
19
18
20
18
18
18
20
The combinations 18 and 18 would return a "LOW" message in the third column, the combination 18 and 19 would return a message "HIGH" etc.

I want to output every combination of a set of numbers. These permutations must include combinations that use only a few of the numbers as well as all eight...ie.
1,
1,2
1,2,3
as well as 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
The macro below is from
http://www.j-walk.com/ss/excel/tips/tip46.htm
This only produces combinations using every number. I'm not sure how this macro works but hopefully someone with better know how could run with it or break it down for me!
I only need to achieve this once but am pretty sure doing it manually will cause error and or madness
Dim CurrentRowSub GetString() Dim InString As String InString = InputBox("Enter text to permute:") If Len(InString) < 2 Then Exit Sub If Len(InString) >= 8 Then MsgBox "Too many permutations!" Exit Sub Else ActiveSheet.Columns(1).Clear CurrentRow = 1 Call GetPermutation("", InString) End IfEnd SubSub GetPermutation(x As String, y As String)' The source of this algorithm is unknown Dim i As Integer, j As Integer j = Len(y) If j < 2 Then Cells(CurrentRow, 1) = x & y CurrentRow = CurrentRow + 1 Else For i = 1 To j Call GetPermutation(x + Mid(y, i, 1), _ Left(y, i - 1) + Right(y, j - i)) Next End IfEnd Sub

I have ten numbers (i.e. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) and I'm trying to figure out how to make Excel generate a list of all the combinations possible for these 10 numbers. I'm trying to avoid using a VBA script. Is it possible to accomplish this task only using a function formula? This way I will have the ability to tweak the formula and test different qauntities of numbers (i.e. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 or 44,56,77,33). Is getting a list of all possible combinations to output on a single column with commas between numbers possible with a formula?
