Matching Dictionary Terms With Definitions
Mar 9, 2009
I have created a dictionary with technical terminology. It is in excel format with about 10,000 entries. The format of my dictionary ("Sheet1") is in three columns:
<vocabulary term> <pronunciation> <definition>
Now, I want to create vocabulary lists using my dictionary. The newly typed up vocabulary list (which only has the term, but not pronunciation or definition), will be copy and pasted into "Sheet2".
The "Sheet2" typed up vocabulary list is in the format:
<vocabulary term 1>
<vocabulary term 2>
etc...
I want to run a macro or script to dictionary terms (including pronunciation and definition) from "Sheet1" and put them into my vocabulary list "Sheet2".
The desired output list in "Sheet2" is: .....

I have two dictionary objects populated with various keys and items - Dict1 and Dict 2. I've read that the items of a dictionary object can be quite varied, even another dictionary! I know how to add items to keys if those items are strings say, but how to add an entire dictionary (Dict2) as the items of another dictionary (Dict1)?

I am using formulas that use ranges in outside file locations. Due to my company's file management "nuances" the file paths are exceedingly long and make it difficult to read formulas. Can I use the Define Name feature to enter the external file path and file name? My attempts so fare don't seem to be working.

I'm trying to find definitions/commands to make excel find the best combinations of several defined scopes and restrictions to make an output number as high as possible.
This is by using a combination of several different equations, maybe excel has a magic trick for all the variables and formulas.

Lets say I need an array of 100 numbers from zero to 100. I want a mean of 75, and SD of 12. Or the same data based on a skewness and kurtosis value. Can I do that in Excel?
I'm just generating fake datasets for my stats class to analyze.
Edit: I found that =norminv(rand(),,) will work.

I am currently working on a performance document. I am working on the principle of having a master template which people can then access, Save As, and use to monitor performance around KPI's.
The issue I am having is around the name of the document changing when it is saved as, as all records have to retained. The macro I am struggling with is designed to unlock the workbook & worksheet, copy the worksheet specified into a new workbook and then return to the workbook the macro is held within and lock it back up. However, when the name changes it just locks the new workbook rather that the version I am asking it to.
ActiveWorkbook.Unprotect Password:="KPIreview"
ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="KPIreview"
Sheets("EID Graphs").Select
Sheets("EID Graphs").Copy
[Code] ....
Is there anyway I can change the “Kent – Monthly Activity & Performance Review – Version 17 – Master.xlsm” statement within the macro to reflect the change in name of the document?

How can I copy the Named Range definitions from one worksheet to another in the same workbook? In case it matters, the Named Ranges refer to cells in a third worksheet in the same workbook.

Is it possible to enhance this line of code:
Code:
.Range("A1:EH" & llastrow).AutoFilter Field:=10, Criteria1:="Cows"
Which filters my database to display only rows in which column J (10) equals "Cows", to display all rows that equal "Cow" and "Chicken" and "Giraffe" and "Cheetah"?

I'm writing a macro to search for letters A to Z in one spreadsheet, and copy it's associated data into another spreadsheet where A to Z already exist.
Thus:
Cells.Find(What:="A", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
That works fine. It find's "A", then the rest of the macro moves to the right and copies the data needed:
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Range("A1").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlToRight)).Select
Selection.Copy
THEN it goes to the NEW spreadsheet (where A to Z are already labeled) and pastes into the corresponding area. Thus:
Windows("The Other Sheet.xls").Activate
Cells.Find(What:="A", After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Range("A1").Select
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _
:=False, Transpose:=False
This works perfectly.
However:
What if, one day, "A" does not exist in the source data? If say, the data started at "B", because there were no results for "A". Currently, the macro will stop working if it attempts to search for a value that doesnt exist.
How do I make it, for example, Search for "A", find that "A" doesnt exist, then skip to Searching for "B", and then "C" and so on?

I have, for my formula, 2 constant values a and x, I then also have a variable, n. The formula I'm trying to convert into excel terms is
SIGMA (with respect from 1 upto n) ((1-x)^(1-n) * x)*a. Unfortunatly thats not drastically inteligable so i've attached a picture file that should explain it in more understandable terms. Now the problem im having is, sigma is a cummulative funtion, which in this example is relative to the variable n, firstly I don't know what formulas I would have to use in order to get a sigma/summination function, and secondly I am uncertain of how to link it to a variable range.

I would like to create a code that would summarize any day of the year in numerical terms.
The formula for coding "days" is as follows:
Coding Month value + current day
Where "coding month" was a combination of the year and month.
The year can be summarized as a fixed value:
2007 yr = 4
2008 = 5
2009 = 6
Ignore anything prior to 2007 and anything after 2009.
The month is simply a SINGLE digit to represent the month and where
January=1, feb=2, march=3......Sept=9. Once you hit October, you have to reduce the values to a single digit, so October = 10 = 1+0=1, November =11=1+1 =2, December = 12 = 1+2=3
Therefore, May 2007 = 4 ( 2007 ) + 5 = 9
June 2007 = 4 + 6 = 10 = 1+0 = 1
Now, comes the addition of the individual day to the mix. If you wanted to find the value for May 23, 2007
You know that May 2007 is 5+4 = 9 so adding the 23rd day is 2+3=5
therefore 9 + 5 = 14. Right?
Not really...
Before reducing this final number down further, there are some double digit numbers that DO NOT get reduced further. They are:
a. 13,14,16,19
b. 11,22,33,44,55,66,77,88,99
These numbers have to be left as is. So, today, May 23, 2007 would be left as a "14"
Two more examples:
May 24, 2007 = 5+4+ 24 = 5+4+2+4 = 15 = 6
July 17, 2007 = 7 + 4 + 17 = 7+4+1+7 = 19 = left as 19
Final thought - It would be helpful, though not necessary, to have a notation besides these double digits. If series "a" could have a "KD" next to it and series "b" could have a "MN" next to it,

I have thousands of data entries (each in their own row, all in one column) and need to separate the basic info. In the example below, say you want to isolate the Town names by entering a formula that can produce a TRUE or FALSE result. Is there a way to use the FIND function and a pool of terms to isolate cells that contain excess data (i.e.- produce a FALSE result for cells containing any words from a term pool like : "Police, Park, Power, Water, Community, Bakery, Grocery, Field, Garden, Post Office, School" etc... ) ?
Pic of sample spreadsheet with desired result:

example as text:
A2 = Springfield
A3 = Springfield Police Department
A4 = Springfield Community College
A5 = Springfield Park Of Recreation
A6 = Des Moines
A7 = Des Moines Power & Water Company
A8 = Des Moines Sunrise Bakery
A9 = Des Moines Post Office
A10 = Des Moines Grocery Store
A11 = Lancaster
A12 = Lancaster Baseball Field
A13 = Lancaster Botanical Gardens

I have the formula where i can change a date to its equivalent in terms of quarters system with a date:
=CHOOSE(MATCH(MONTH(A2),{1,4,7,10}),"Winter","Spring","Summer","Fall")&YEAR(A2)
This is a school year configuration.
ex.
A2 = 10/1/2005: with the formula up there it turns into Fall 2005
i want to be able to add any number of years and the formula will still come up with the quarters system
also i would like A2 to be stationary and create a list of quarters for each year i add on
ex.
A2= 10/1/2005 B2=Fall 2005
B3=Winter 2006
B3=Spring 2006
B5=Summer 2006
B6=Fall 2006
etc.
If this is all possible lastly I would like to negate summer quarters

1) This exercise would save me considerable time and would almost certainly eliminate the possibility of typing errors in preparing the input data file for another application.
2) My program requires each input multivariant equation to be specified as follows and in the same order:
--Number of Independent Variables, N (max 10)
--Number or Terms, M (max 20)
--Term 1: power of var 1
: power of var 2
: ..............
: power of var N
: coeff
--Term 2: power of var 1
: power of var 2
: ..............
: power of var N
: coeff
........................
--Term M: power of var 1
: power of var 2
: ..............
: power of var N
: coeff
3) It would be extremely helpful if I could type the equation (of up to 10 variables and up to 20 terms) in a cell on a w/s and automatically get the above particulars extracted and nicely tabulated in a column.
4) Simplified Example: (3 var & 4 terms).........................

I'm getting the following error:
"Object library invalid or contains references to object definitions that could not be found"
I wasn't getting that error last night and I'm not sure what I may have done to cause this error.
It seems to be cause by code running on one sheet of my workbook, but I'm not really sure about that. I'm still a bit of a novice at VBA.
I'm using Excel 2002 SP3 and I'm running MS XP Home as my OS.
Do you have any ideas what can cause this error and/or how to trace down the offending objects/code?

I have 2 dictionaries; both have a "location" and the "frequency of occurence". The 2nd dictionary locations are related to the first, but are named differently, so I have a range of cells I'm using to define the equivalent locations, ie:
Dict. 2 Location----Dict. 1 Location
Wrapper------------Packaging
Robot----------------Robot Arm
Robot----------------Robot Base
etc..
(It's not a direct 1 for 1)
The program is meant to take both dictionaries, convert the 2nd dictionary keys to the equivalent dictionary 1 keys (based on the cell range data provided) and then combine the values associated with that location and store them in D_Master. D_Master is a copy of my dictionary 1, in which I am also trying to add the values from dictionary 2.
I started by writing the location definitions within the program, i.e.:
[Code]....
which works, but there are several hundred definitions and it becomes less robust, whereas a user could type in a definition within the range of cells and the code below could take care of the rest.

i have to reverse a very big wordlist containing four coulmns. Column A words, Column B Transcription, Column C Grammar and Column D Meanings. Now i would like to make the meanigs (seperator is ";") to words and words to meaning in another new worksheet added by a macro. For example English-French would then become French-English wordlist.
If the original worksheets name is "x" then a new worksheet should be added with name "Re-x". This new sheet should then contain the new wordlist. For example:

I have dictionary defined as series of keys and let's say two values:
name1,val1A,val1B
name2,val2A,val2B
...and so on
I would like to define named range from "name" column allowing user to select desired name from combo on another sheet. This is easy
But after that I would like to get val1 and val2 for selected name and show them with some calculation; For example to construct two columns like this: <nameX_selected_from_combo>, (<val1X>+<val2X>)/2
All the problem is how to select values from the same row as name selected in range.

In my code below I have verified that the key that I am passing to the item is valid with a debug statement however the item is not being returned.
These two lines are not returning anything. The idea is to pass in the key and get the value.
Code:
Debug.Print dict.Item(Products.Cells(Target.Row, Target.Column - 4))
Products.Cells(Target.Row, Target.Column + 1).Value = dict.Item(Products.Cells(Target.Row, Target.Column - 4))
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Ingredients As Worksheet
Dim Products As Worksheet
Set Ingredients = Sheets("Ingredients")
Set Products = Sheets("Products")

I have a VBA code which checks the value of two cells in "Sheet2", and when these values are in the fourth column of "Sheet4", then dictionary is saved and after that VBA delete Entire Rows in "Sheet4" which consists these values.
Please find the code below:
VB:
Sub dictionary1()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim dico1 As Scripting.Dictionary
Set dico1 = New Dictionary
[Code] .....
Now I wonder how to add more conditions like for example: "Delete all rows in "Sheet4" which have for instance in the 6th column text "Hello" AND which have in the 7th column value greater than 10". How can I change the existing code?
This is of course just an example, but the underlying question is how can I add to these dictionaries more conditions. Of course, we can still use "Sheet2" to add some value which we want dictionary to store.
I want to use for this only dictionaries because spreadsheet is large and filtering doesn't work at all...
