I have a list of authors for about 20 papers. These Papers are listed in sequential order from 1999 to 2005.
I want to track the number of similar authors from paper to paper. Thus I am attempting to create a macros that has the Papers listed sequentially when they were published and the authors for each paper, with the authors name in each cell. I want to create a macros that will compare the Author Cells associated to lets say the Fifth Paper with the Author Cells for the Fourth Paper (the Previous Paper). So that if certain authors come up in the Fifth Paper that were in the Fourth Paper, the # will be noted.
I also want this macros to compare all the Author Cells that have appeared in the past with that of the author cells of the (N) paper excluding the (N-1) Paper, and just note the # of occurences. So using the previous example. If we are talking about the Fifth Paper, it will look through Papers #1-#3 for any matching keywords and note the number.
I have attached my spreadsheet to make it more clearer. For some papers there are more than 20 authors as well just to note.
I'm comparing data from two columns like this:
FALSE
FALSE
FALSETRUE
FALSEFALSE
FALSE
FALSE
and my goal is to have a TRUE or FALSE in the third column for the following criteria: TRUE if left column equals TRUE or if left column equals FALSE and right column equals TRUE. False if else........
The following formula (thanks to Barrie) determines if the difference between 2 values equals a third value, within a fourth margin of error value, and returns either True or False.
=AND(C1-D1
i am tring to run a "For Each" Loop in excel with the condition that if cells in selecton trends ("Like") with another range.
Range("A:A").Select
For Each MyCell In Selection
If Mycell.value Like Range("B:B")
Now I am not sure if I can run Like function against a range ... it works if i change range to a single cell
I want this because i have two column data, both contains client names, however names in both columns are slightly different ... (Like Colum A has ABC INC and Column B has ABC INC. ) so idea is to replace name in column A with Column B
I have a macros set up to sort a group of figures. I would like to add an IF function to weed out certain items that do not fit the criteria and therefore would not be sorted but left at the bottom of the sheet.

I've used the ROWS, Index, Small combination that works perfectly (Please see sample below). However, since the this software doesn't support the ROWS function, and doesn't support Macros.
I have a custom function that is interferring with VBA. If I remove the function the VBA works fine, if I put it back to do what it needs to do, the VBA does absolutely nothing. Any ideas on how to make things work together? Here is the custom function and it is in a module where the VBA that isn't working is in the main Workbook page, but it is a Worksheet Change VBA affecting the same page as the custom function.
Function Sum_Visible_Cells(Cells_To_Sum As Object)
Application.Volatile
For Each Cell In Cells_To_Sum
If Cell.Rows.Hidden = False Then
If Cell.Columns.Hidden = False Then
total = total + Cell.Value
End If
End If
Next
Sum_Visible_Cells = total

I have a football score system and wish to compare the values of various cells - 2 if possible, but more if not possible.
Essentially I have a list of predictions for the score of a game (e.g. 2-1, 1-0, 0-0, 2-2 etc) in a spreadsheet, and I have a cell where I enter the correct scoreline (e.g. 2-1). The way the points system works is that if the prediction is correct (i.e. 2-1) then that player gets 3 points. If the result/outcome is correct but the scoreline is incorrect (i.e. 1-0) then the player gets 1 point. If they result/outcome and scoreline are incorrect, then that player gets 0 points.
Ideally I would link to compare 2 cells - predicted score and actual score, where the format of the scores is entered as 2-1.
However, I feel this may be easier having to columns for the score - Column A = 2 Column B = 1. In this way the scores only need to be compared cell by cell, however they would need to be compared by value for the correct outcomes.
I'm populating a userform combobox this way :
For i = 1 To npoints
Me.Combobox1.AddItem i
Next i
Meanwhile I'm populating a cell with a value from a listbox:
Worksheet1.Cells(rowindex, 6).Value = Me.Listbox.List(listindex - 1, i)
I don't understand how to make this return TRUE:
Worksheet1.Cells(rowindex, 6).Value = Me.Combobox1.Value
I tried playing around with format( , ) but without success.
I have a quick question: I want to compare two cells' formats with as short programming as possible, so the program runs faster.
I have the current code to compare the formats and give the variable "Result" the value "FormatChange" if the formats are different.
To make a long story short, I'm trying to compare formulas. I was able to copy the formulas as values.
There are hundreds of lines, each one with the formulas pasted as values, like '=SUM(G132:I132) / G30. What I want right now is to compare the text.
So, if for example:
the line for both parts of the pasted sum formula like '=SUM(G132:I132) / G30, I want a number 1 to be written in the adjacent cell (if '=SUM(G132:I132) / G30 is in A1, 1 should be written in B1).
However, if its is written '=SUM(G132:I142) / G30, than nothing should be written in B1.
Moreove, the line could have from 1 to characters. So it could be '=SUM(G1:I1) / G30 or '=SUM(G13200:I13200) / G30.
is the same, like of A1 is '=SUM(G1322), I want a number 1 to be written in B1
I am currently using excel 13' and am having trouble inserting rows once the value in column b changes. My goal with this procedure is to insert two rows after each change in value in Column b (i.e. b2, b3, and b4, all equal 123 however b5 equals 124) Below is the code.
Dim cell As Range
Set i = Range(Range("A1:I1"), Range("A1:I1").End(xlDown))
Set bsort = Range(Range("B1"), Range("B1").End(xlDown))
Set ISort = Range(Range("I1"), Range("I1").End(xlDown))

I want to be able to count how many instances Primary Price is >= Price 2. And, secondarily how many times Price 1 was, at a minimum, >= to Price 2 and then also >= Price Price 3.
Ultimately I want to compare Primary to 100 or so "Prices" over a years time
I figure it would be a sumproduct function, but can't get it dialed in
I have a list of names and a seperate list of names with emails.
In column A there is a last name, column B a first name, and then for the second list in column D there is an email.
I need to tell Excel that if column A and Column B both have a replication on the list, then in Column D populate it with the email address on the list.
I know this is confusing so I have attached a sample of my spreadsheet. The email address is in yellow and I need to have it copied to the cells in white. The list is almost 14,500 lines long and it would take forever manually.
I have a cell (F2) that is auto updated with total sales units for today (Its a simple counter of individual sales). I want to detect when there is a "batch" of sales >= 10. ie. F2 may start at zero for the day and increment by 1,2,5 or 10 units at a time. If the increment is 10 units or more I would like to detect this and store the result in cell G4.
Typical values in C2: 0, 1, 6, 7, 9, 19, 21, 22 etc as new orders arrive. The larger order between 9-19 (viz 10 or more), I need to detect and store in G4. I know that I need to use both the current value of F2 (say 19) and the previous value of F2 (say 9) to perform this, but the solution eludes me.
I have the following snippet of
If Cells(3, k).Value = "Actuals" Then
DesActualColumn = Cells(3, k).Column
End If
nice and simple, and works fine until it cannot find "Actuals" in the cell because someone has put a tab ahead of it, for example.
Can anyone tell me how I can use a 'LIKE' and put wildcards
I am aware this question must have been asked to death on this forum and I already searched and found some answers but for some reason I canīt get it to work. I have two worksheets (sheet1 and sheet2). In Column E of Sheet1 I have product descriptions that I want to compare cell by cell to the product descriptions in Column F of Sheet 2. If they are not the same, color in the cell in Sheet 2. There are 1810 rows in both columns. I tried this method but it gives me an error (in spanish) that says that I cannot compare ranges of data.
I have also seen some code to do something similar (http://www.ozgrid.com/forum/showpost...85&postcount=3 ):
Sub find_cell()
Range("A:E"). Find(What:=Cells(2, 6).Value, LookAt:=xlPart).Activate
ar = ActiveCell.Row
ac = ActiveCell.Column
' the two lines above store the row and column values of the cell found
' in your example ar is going to be equal to 229 and ac is 3
' now this following lines are to change the colors to red
With Cells(ar, ac).Interior
.ColorIndex = 3
.Pattern = xlSolid
End With
End Sub
I donīt quite get the "Range("A:E").Find(What:=Cells(2, 6).Value, LookAt:=xlPart).Activate" part though.
Here is the qtn if two cells A1 and A2 has "ab 1" and "ab 2" the answers for comparing cells should be true as both cells has first 2 letters as alphabets then space followed by numeric..format of cells is same.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to compare the values of columns B and G and if any of the cells are G < B, I would like to move the whole row into the second worksheet. And only if possible, it would be awesome if the macro could check column A for duplicates before the value comparison and sum up the column B if there are duplicates. In my example row 6 and 7 on column A have the same suppliers code and the amount totals to 2.
In this case for example, the value of the third row of G is lower than B, and therefore I would like the whole row 3 to be cut out from worksheet 1 and moved to worksheet 2.

I have an Excel 2003 program that contains macros. One of the macros hides certain command bars and disables the worksheet menu bar. On close the opposite is true. The problem is, if a user uses the disable macros when opening then the worksheet menu bar and other command bars are still available. I would like to hide all of the data sheets and display another sheet that would normally be hidden displaying a message that the macros have to be enabled for the program to work correctly if disable macros is chosen. When the enable macros are used I would like the Error page to be hidden.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have the need within a spreadsheet to automatically compare the value of 2 cells and if they match exactly to move the cursor to a group of cells. If they do not match then move to another group of cells. The only way that I can see to do this is via Macros. However I still need to do the automatic compare first.
I have a user that keeps a maintenance log in an Excel worksheet and sends an updated copy once a week to a board member. Two weeks ago, the board member started complaining that he was prompted to enable/disable macros on opening and became worried when my user stated that no macros were used in the book. He is now concerned that we have sent him a virus.
I know the file is clean because I've scanned it, and when I look at the file in VB, there are no modules or classes present just the Sheets 1-3 and the ThisWorkbook file. None of these objects have any code in them. My user does have some macros in PERSONAL.XLS but they are not used in the workbook in question.
No one else gets the prompt for enabling/disabling macros. Even if I set my security to prompt for any macros, I get no message. I'm convinced that there must be some setting in his Excel that is causing this individual to get this message. Is there anything else other than a macro that would cause this?
Another interesting dilemma to solve. Using this formula:

View 9 Replies View RelatedI wish to fire one of 2 different macros, depending on the Target.Text value.
If the Target cell (in a named range) is blank then one macro fires, If the cell has text then another macro fires.
this is what I have
If Target.Column = 7 And Target.Row > 7 And Target.Text <> "" Then ViewPicture Target
Else
If Not Target.Column = 7 And Target.Row > 7 And Target.Text <> "" Then GetPicture Target

I am trying to create a macro based on value in a cell. For example if J2 is greater than 1 then run macro A. The code I have is:
If j2 > 1 then
Call MacroA
The file imported as a text tab deliminated file and I believe that even though J2 might be 10.05, it does show up in the formula bar as just 10.05 not =10.05. I don't if this makes a difference. The J2 cell could either bland or values ranging from 1 to 100. If it is blank I want to run a different macro.
What is the commands or script for deleting a macro automatically using
another workbook macro.
