Im looking for an Excel macro that will allow me to input any date and time and produce x,y,z co-ordinate results for planetary positions relative to the centre of the universe. I already have a database with ephemeris data but find it difficult to use manually inputting date and time constantly. I need to perform so many calculations that automating this procedure is essential to me but i dont know how.
View 2 RepliesI have a page of planetary symbols (astrology) in 3 columns (A,B,C ) in date order, that I'd like to copy across on the same line (date) ,to a designated column on the same sheet, in order of the ColD symbol it won't show here properly as there's no astro font, just tried it.
eg
A B C D E F
date Mercury 180 Venus Mercury180Venus
" Venus 60 Mars Venus 60 Mars
" Jupiter 30 Venus Jupiter 30 Venus
here, we have Venus copied to same line in ColE
Mars " " " ColF
how to sort the columns, Cols B,C & D themselves could be resorted instead into the order of the ColD symbol-- so I'd have colA, date-- the B,C,D sorted by D, into about 8 Cols to the right
I have daily streamflow data for a large number of years. One column is the date and the second column is the streamflow value. I want to compute the maximum value and the 3-day maximum (largest average value for any consecutive 3-day period)for each water year (starts on October 1 and ends on Sept 30). Of course the number of days each year varies by one during leap years.

Here is a sales scenario.
A $25 commission will be paid on sales between $50 to $150.
A $50 commission will be paid on sales between $151 to $300
A $75 commission will be paid on sales between $301 to $600
The sales person will enter the sale amount into column B. Column C should compute the total commission for multilple sales.
Example:
Column A Column B
Sales Commission
$50 $150 (which is the comm. for the combined sales)
$175
$360
computing the number of business hours between 2 dates.
Given the following information:
- Business Hours: 8am -5pm (8:00-17:00)
- Business Days: Mon-Fri
- if entry queued falls on a weekend or beyond the business hours, it should count the first hour on the next business hour.
Example: scenario 1 = Starts Sunday, 10am and Ends Monday 9am; count of hours should be 1
scenario 2 = starts on Monday 6pm and ends on Tuesday 10am; count of hours should be 2
My spreadsheet opens. Cell A1 determines what today is, formatted as "weekday, day month year" (e.g., "Tuesday, 18 February 2014").
I have another cell in which I typically enter the date for the coming Friday. Instead of updating this field once each week, I'd like to calculate the date for the next coming Friday based off the value in cell A1 (to be concise, if "today" happens to be a Friday, then it would calculate the date of next Friday). (Continuing the example above, the coming Friday would be computed as 2/21/2014. If I open the spreadsheet on 2/21, it would calculate 2/28.)
What formula or step(s) to follow to render this value automatically?
Using Excel 2003, Column E has a varying and unpredictable number of rows, which only the final 252 rows are of significance. I need to compute the following formulas, here written in English as I can't determine the proper terminology to accomplish this task in Excel:
Final Row with a number in Column E/average (final 252 rows with numbers in column E)+
Final Row with a number in Column E/average (final 126 rows with numbers in column E)+
Final Row with a number in Column E/average (final 63 rows with numbers in column E)
Once again, what makes this not straightforward for me is the column may have wildly varying numbers of rows.
I am trying to set up a spreadsheet that will have a calculator where variables can be modified in order to properly see staffing requirements using the Erlang C formula. I have all of the known variables, but I can't seem to figure out how to calculate the formula to get the numbers I'm expecting.
[URL] is the website I'm using currently, and I'm stuck at the actual Erlang C formula. I'm not very good at math, but here is how I am reading the formula in English (I'm using the given numbers on the site for the variables so I can check my work).
Erlang C = calls per second to the power of agents staffed divided by the factorial of agents staffed. The result is then divided by calls per second to the power of agents staffed divided by the factorial of agents staffed again, that result is added to 1 minus occupancy, that result is multiplied by the summation of 0 to 54 (54 being the result of 55 agents staffed minus 1), which is then multiplied by calls per second to the power of "k" (i haven't yet figured out what k should equal, i assumed zero from the summation) divided by the factorial "k".
The result I get is not even close to what the website shows as the answer for Erlang, which should be .239. Am I making faulty assumptions anywhere? It's entirely possible I'm not computing the formula properly, it's been about 12 years since I've taken a math class, but since I know all the values for the variables (except for "k"), I should be able to write out a simple Excel formula to compute this.
I have to compute monthly standard deviation (volatility) from daily data.
The problem consists on the fact that the days during a month are not constant and change over time.
I attach the excel file : Price_Time_Series.xlsx
In this xls file, you can find dates in column A, price in column B and returns in column C.
I want to compute standard deviation at the end of the month for stock returns (column C), by considering all available days.
As you can note from the file, the days change over time and they are note constant. How can I compute standard deviation of them?
I'm using excel 2007 for analyzing my students grades. I ran two exams and look for a way to compute a final grade score, which should be equal to the grade of the first exam for those students who took just the first exam and should be equal to the second score for those students who took the second exam. (Clarification: for those students who took both terms, their final grade should be equal to their score in the second term).
View 9 Replies View RelatedI need a macro that can autofill irrespective of where the source cells are. Like, this is what I want to do:
Select two cells containing a descending order such as 50, 40. Hit the hotkey and the macro should autofill the same way as double clicking the bottom right corner of the selection.
The problem is that the two source cells can be anywhere in the sheet, and autofill range isn't fixed. Essentially, I just want a keyboard shortcut for Excel's own Autofill function.
I want this macro to be rid of the mouse when I'm working on excel (it really slows me down to use the mouse every time I want to autofill).
I'm having trouble with a macro not looping back to the right place. The macro runs fine but is looping back to the very beginning instead of to the DO WHILE point which is the bit I would like to loop through. The code I have posted is a little long I am afraid (with the first part being largely irrelevant to the issue I am trying to solve), but I have marked where I am trying to get the macro to loop though.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've written code that involves adding a number of new sheets to a workbook. I want to specify that each new sheet is positioned to the right hand side of all other sheets in the book, so that the sheets are positioned in the order (when reading from left to right) that they are added.
I know about the Copy After:= thing but I only know how to specify copying after a particular sheet name. I could solve my problem by each time referencing the sheetname from the previously-created sheet, but I think there must be a way to it properly.
