In Column B of my spreadsheet i have a drop down that only allows users to enter "Yes" or "No"
Is it possible to make Column C a required field if "No" is selected in column B.
So basically if cell b4 is "No" then i want to make it manditory that cell C4 is filled out with a reason why.
Same thing for cell b5 then i would like cell c5 filled out before they continue using the sheet. etc.
We have spreadsheets which record our sales team's prospects and orders. In order for the sales director's summary spreadsheet to be correct, the month which the order came in has to be filled in and correct.
What I would like to be able to do is when column K of a line is turned to "100 - Purchase Order In", a message to pop up saying something along the lines of "Is the Month In correct?"
Looking through previous answers, I think that this is something along the lines of what I need:
Sub Print_Out()
With Range("d6")
If .Value = "" Then
.Select
MsgBox ("Make sure you enter your surname")
Exit Sub
End If
End With
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, Collate:=True
End Sub
However, I don't know enough about VB Code to know how to change it for my purposes...
I trying to require data entry in Cell 2 if Cell 1 contains text. Normally Cell 1 is blank but once the user enters data (its a text field) I want Cell 2 to then become mandatory for data entry. (Cell 1 is actually C5 and Cell 2 is actually DK5. So formula I am thinking if is: If C5 contains data then DK5 must also contain data. If C5 is blank, the DK5 is also blank.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet with running macros which hides & unhide rows based on input of data in yellow highlighted cells (see attached). I'm trying to make all cells mandatory. The below code works but I run into problems when certain cells made mandatory are hidden. For example if I select "Expense" as Type of Expenditure in the attachment cell C10 & C11 are hidden so if its mandatory I won't be able to move forward to next cell.

How can I make a cell mandatory, if another Cell states XX?
For example:
If column B has "agency" then column C must be completed stating which agency was used?
However sometimes column B could say "no agency" therefore column c doesn't need filling!
I am currently trying to adapt the following code which is in VBA (Sheet1). It currently ensures mandatory cell entry of cell C2 before saving, and if this is not done then it would not save the item into the relevant directory. I would like to adapt this code so that cells B2 to R2 are all mandatory, and if they are not filled in a message box with the cell title (which would be in B1 to R1) would pop up. If the cells are not filled in then it will not save (the same function it carries out for cell c2 currently). The code is attached to a command button, i have tried to make the additional cells mandatory by playing around with the If Trim(.cells(2, 3).value) part of the code with the AND function etc however i have had not had any luck.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet with some cells which return values using INDEX and MATCH to bring back the entire details of a person based on there membership number. However I require the comments to be attached with the returned values. The comments have there image in, rather than just text.
I have found some answers with vba, which do the process, however you had to manually enter the cell, from which the comment was to be copied from, into a pop up box. This involved finding the box myself to then select the box to take the comment from. In doing this I had found and read the comment, which is the is the process I'm trying to bypass.

I have a table which as a few columns, the left column is called name and the far right one is called email. The name cells have a drop down list which refers to another workbook with peoples names, when you select a name other cells are automatically populated using the vlookup function such as phone number, email etc. In the workbook it is referencing too with all the data, the email address are like a hyperlink which creates an outgoing mail if you click on it, is there a way to have this in the table as nothing happens when you ckick on the text.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet with about 1000 rows. This is data that I've imported from another source and there are blank rows scattered throughout. I am trying to add columns together, but when I cut and past the sum formula, I end up with a 0 in a cell that should be blank. I've tried various iserror, isblank, isnull, empty functions, but am still getting a 0.
Here my example of one function I've tried:
a b c
1. 50 50 50 =if(isblank(a1:c1)," ",sum(a1:c1)) 150
2. 20 20 20 =if(isblank(a2:c2)," ",sum(a2:c2)) 60
3. =if(isblank(a3:c3)," ",sum(a3:c3)) 0
I would like that zero answer in row 3 to be blank otherwise I have to manually go through all the rows and delete these 0's out or cut and paste the sum function just on the rows with numbers.
I have a spreadsheet which has several fields containing data and
what i want to achieve is that when someone comes to close the
spreadsheet , If they have not filled in all the fields required it will
put up a notice to say that field **** must be completed.
i have created a form hich dumps into a database.
There are some mandatory fields which need to be filled in by the user on the form - how can i flag these up at the end of the form - with a message box which says - "cant complete - feild "" "" "" are missing "
I have a worksheet which will be sent out of our organisation to a supplier for them to complete, save and return to me. I have a number of cells in the worksheet which I want to be mandatory. ie if no information is entered in the cell they will get a warning when they attempt to save the file down but will be unable to save it without filling in the cell. I was also going to colour the cells to identify them as mandatory. The cells are in random positions on the worksheet and different worksheets sent to different suppliers may have a differing number of coloured cells.
Is there a way to have one macro which finds the coloured cells (red), checks that there is an entry in each cell . If it is, allows a save. If it is not populated, displays a warning and stops them saving the worksheet until it is populated and is useable for all worksheets regardless of how many red cells are on the sheet and the position of them? If so how would it look?
I have two combo boxes (created using the control toolbox), and I would like to have the second combo box (pricing analyst approval) be a mandatory field if the combo box value above it (Loss Type) is V-VII only. I would like to have some sort of promt appear that indicates that the Pricing Analyst combo box is mandatory.

I have a chart with blank values in some cases. I have set up the chart to show those values as gaps, which relies on the blank cell being empty. However, my blank cells have a formula along the lines of: if (condition,value,"")
So the chart does not consider them blank, presumably either because the formula is in there, or because "" is not the same as blank. How can I make this cell appear blank for the purposes of the chart?
What I would like to to in Excel:
When I leave the current cell,
1. evaluate the contents of the cell I am leaving (essentially determining if it is empty or not)
2. If it is empty, do nothing
If it is not empty (or maybe if it has a number value in it)
3. Then uncheck a box (a check box form control)
In Access, I would enter code in On Leave property. It would essentially change the value in the text box that would be named or have some other unique method of identifying it.
So I have two issues:
1) In Excel, I do not know to make a macro fire upon leaving a cell
And
2) I do not know how to refer to the properties of a specific check box control. that is, there will be many of them in the spreadsheet and I do not see how to name them. Clicking of properties for the check box gave no hint of it.
The following cell formula calls a fixed range of cells to execute the associated User Defined Function. The problem is that the data set sometimes covers a wider range and sometimes a smaller range. The cell formula is:
=Smooth(a,g,bw,Trends!A8,Trends!$A$8:$A$190,Trends!$I$8:$I$190)
This requires going in manually each time and readjusting the ranges for Trends!$A$8:$A$190 and Trends!$I$8:$I$190. ( X and Y values for the function)
Is there a way read the data length and have the cell formula adjust based on the actual data range?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am creating an excel file for my company. This file contains 18 headers (from Columns A to R), all of which are mandatory to be completed.
This file is used by several other colleagues with the intention to update our records almost on a daily basis, and saved by them daily before being checked by me.
I would like to know if there is a macro to be used in order to prevent them from saving the file if all the fields are not completed. (ie. A5 to R5)
This function should only run right up to the next blank row.
Eventually, I would like the users to complete all cells from A5 to R5.
Should a single cell not be completed, an error message will pop-up.
When the next person accesses the file to enter their data underneath, it will again, not allow them to save until all the mandatory fields are filled out.
I have looked at another very similar link but it does not work and I do not know how to tweak it.
The example given is for when the data is in Column A.
The headers on my file are on Row 1 (Column A to R).
Mandatory Cells and knowing to fill in the next row!
