Macro To Populate Alternate Cells In A Row With A Value...
Mar 17, 2009
I have a spreadsheet for work rosters. Each person on the roster has a row with info on what they're doing for a given week. Split into the am and pm session of each day.
All I want to do is be able to fill the row with the same value if they're doing the same thing for the week - eg if they're on leave, I'd like to hit CTRL-L and have the row populated with 'LEAVE' in each alternate cell, rather than typing it manually. Note that it is each alternate cell, not each cell as the alternate cell has different info.
For the am and pm session of the five working days. And just to complicate matters, each 'cell' on my spreadsheet is actually 4 merged cells, and the alternate 'cell' that I want left alone is two merged cells! This is the macro generated when I do a simple record - it does what I want, but obviously jumps to the original row that I recorded it in whenever I run it - I need it to fill the row that I start it from. I recorded starting in cell I133:L134
Would like a script that will go to each sheet in the workbook, and fill in light grey background, each alternate row that contains data, EXCLUDING the 1st row (header row).
I have a table of data that is laid out in multiples of two columns. I have attached a simplified example. Essentially all I need to do is count the contents of every second cell when it equals a specific value. If you look at my attached example it will be clearer. how I can do this using formula? (I don't want to use VBA in this instance).
I currently have a long winded formula in all the cells that just slows the whole sheet down, the populated cells range is M6:BM5010 this is the formula i have been using which works but slow !
Is there any possibility to protect alternate cells of column see below for example. I want to lock cells B1, B6, B11 and B16 only so that no one is able to delete the average rate.
A B average rate0.0 1 1 1 1 average rate0.0 1 1 1 1 average rate0.0 1 1 1 1 average rate0.0 1 1 1 1
I have a worksheet with 2 buttons labelled "Hide" and "Show". As the names imply, they allow the user to hide or show parts of the worksheet. I would like to combine them into one button and have the button label and the associated macro change with each press of the button. Here is what I have so far;
Sub SHOW_LEADS() Rows("10:15").Select Selection.EntireRow.Hidden = False ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 20").Select Selection.Characters.Text = "HIDE LEADS" Range("A1").Select 'is there a better way to remove the focus from the button than selecting a cell off the button? End Sub
Sub HIDE_LEADS() Rows("10:14").Select Selection.EntireRow.Hidden = True ActiveSheet.Shapes("Button 20").Select Selection.Characters.Text = "SHOW LEADS" Range("A1").Select End Sub
These macros change the label fine after hiding or unhding the rows but I can't find the proper terms to use to change the macro associated with the button (if there is one?)
I have a spreadsheet that I would like to loop through column "C" and if criteria is met copy and paste A:C on sheet1 to sheet2 over multiple columns alternately. What I mean by alternately is that I would past the first row in column A6 then the second in E6 then the third in A7 and so on until all items are copied. I purposely left a blank column between both columns of information. I've tried sorting/and advance filtering and couldn't get it to work.
Example: loop through column "C" If I have the Letter "A" copy data to column "A" and "E" alternately back an forth until I no longer meet the criteria. I start putting data on the 6th row due to header information in rows 1-5. ... If column "C" is the letter "B" copy to column I,M,Q,U
Lastly I could always have less rows of information than I do columns. SO the last column could be empty. I always sort my data by column "C" so data will be sequential.
I have a spreadsheet with data populated down column B. This size will vary from day to day so is there a macro I can run that will populate Column C with a formula based on their being data in the adjacent cell.
I have tried to go around the long way to achieve this but came up with pages of pointless code .... I know there is a better way I just dont know enough about VB to do it myself ... And I know this is EASY for many :-)
-------- Cell ranges h11 to as11 are a totals row. If the total is 0, colorindex is set to vbpatternnone, if >= 1, then colorindex is set to vbpatterngray. Easy right ? I just dont kn ow how to do FROM/IF/DO range loops... --------
Details: The code in worksheet_SelectionChange will contain the following:
1: From range h11 to as11, variable1 = application.interior.colorindex of the cell.
2: Check if the cell is >=1 or <=0 ....
3: If >=1 then set application.interior.colorindex = vbpatterngray. Go to #5. ' (This inserts a pattern over the original color of the cell)
4: If <=0 then set application.interior.colorindex = vbpatternNONE ALSO set application.interior.colorindex = variable1 ' (This clears the cell pattern and returns it to original color)
5. Repeat steps to clear cell pattern and restore color / or insert pattern for all cells from range H11:AS11
At the moment I do it all manually, and it takes forever. I am sure there must be a simple way of doing it. I am using Excel 2003, but could work in a newer version if required.
I am trying to build a staff roster. The staff rotate over a 4 week cycle. the name of the staff member, and their shift needs to be looked up from the key then matched with the particular week. the name and shift then need to populate specific cells.
I have attached the worksheet so you can see what i am trying to achieve.
My sheet goes from monday to friday on the coulombs. On the rows i have various data sections for each day. I would like the data on the last day (any day after monday) that there is data for a sheet to input that data into the monday slot when the "master date" is changed on the cheese sheet. The idea here being that the script will take the last entered data for a given sheet, and put it into the monday coulomb on the same sheet when the date is changed. This is kind of hard to explain so if you need clarification let me know. Attached is the sheet i'm working with.
i have attached a copy of an excel file and if you look at the end i am trying to write an IF statement that reads if J = "2-0" then column M = 12-(K) or 12--4 so answer is 16 and then column N = -column M or -16 and then if J = "2-1" then M = 6-(K) or 6--0 = 6 and then N = -M .....
so if J was "2-1" and (K) -4 then the answer given for column M would be 6--4=10 and column N = -10
I do an analysis that contains 100 or more rows with 1 of 2 row labels in column A; "existing" or "retrofit." There may be numerous successive rows labeled "existing" in a given place where there is no retrofit. Rows labeled "existing" contain existing equipment details such as area, equip description, operating cost. Rows labeled "retrofit" contain recommended efficient replacements with details such as area operating cost and savings. I have to display total cost and savings. Right now I use the awful method, F1+F3+F4+F5... for existing and F2+F6... for retrofit. This is a terrible method, time consuming, prone to error, etc. Is there a way to total rows with specific labels when the row labels are not consistently alternating? Would like to attach an example spreadsheet but... the permissions say I may not, for some strange reason.
I am trying to populate cells based on dropdown boxes. The data is on one worksheet and needs to be populated in cells on the main worksheet based on information in the two dropdown boxes. I have included my worksheet for reference.
On the 'Activity' sheet I: select the date, select the description, and select the category (dependent on the description using indirect) and enter a value. ($ dollar amount)
How do I make the entered values appear automatically :
- on the correct Sheet for the Description - 'EXPENSES' or 'INCOME'
- in the correct columns (matching) the category
- and in the correct row (matching) the date,
- "add to" - if a value already exists in the cell (more than one transaction on a date)
after they have been hand entered on the 'Activity' sheet?
I have a database in the form of a spreadsheet with the following column headings: A=DATE (3 letter abbreviation for the month...jan, feb, mar, etc) B=Client C=City D=State E=Department F=Contract number
Is there a formula that I can enter in another worksheet (which is being used as a report), that will "grab" the monthly data for all entries for a given month (i.e. "mar"), and auto-populate corresponding cells with each?
I am trying to write a macro to populate column A "main sheet"with all data from column A "info sheet", Also, in the "main sheet" Column B add a Batch number from a static cell value B5 in "Settings Sheet" every time we have data in Column A. then insert the today's date in Column C "main" every time we have data in column A.
I put a sample of the data I want to see in my "main sheet" ...
I have a problem after filling in some forms on specific third party site;
After filling in all fields and giving the order to save the info, the fields which had the correct info return to blank, and nothing gets saved on the web page...
Here's how my code looks like...
Sub testing() Dim IE As Object Set IE = CreateObject("INTERNETEXPLORER.APPLICATION") IE.NAVIGATE Range("a1").Value
I'm trying to take list off a sheet called List ( attached pic ) and populate the table on a sheet called I-O List, there is already a formula to get the Module type and calulate the data, on the list it shows how many Inputs and Outputs it has so I need it to look like the final pic I attached, it will basically say if inputs = 16 it will start at 0 and go up. I just don't know how to populate a table, and count up from 0. and the last objective is theres a column called X if the cell is empty I don't want to calculate the line on the list, if it = X then I do.
I want to reference to a range of tables depending on the value of a separate cell. Problem is that I don't know how to insert this into the range part of the lookup formula.
EG
=vlookup(a12,NAMED RANGE AS PER CELL c9,2,false)
Cell a12 is the lookup reference which is fine.
Named range is set-up and working fine.
Cell c9 is the description of the named range - season_indices_Asda_Cream
I want that to be changeable by he user so they can change the name in cell c9 from a drop down list so that the lookup formula redirects to the alternate named range...
Is there any way that i can copy a row of data, but paste each individual cell that has been copied into every other column, or every 3rd column, or every x number column.
I want to do this as i have 3 column headers repeated across spreadsheet representing each month. and would like to paste into the relevant column i.e budget actual difference budget actual difference budget actual difference.
So I can paste each value under the actual column.
