I want to be able to measure the progression of a cell that is in a dropdown in Excel. Once the cell "closes" it is important but it is more important to see what the cell was before it was coded as closed. Is there a way to see what the last item in that cell was? maybe put it in another cell?

Is it possible to create a formula that would give the sum of cells that are in arithmetic progression in excel?
Example:
Let's first choose 4 cells that are in arithmetic progression, B14 , B20 , B26 and B32 for instance(the common difference here is 6). So what I want to do is: I want to type a formula in another cell, lets suppose C5, that will automatically give me the sum of the values of B14,B20,B26 and B32. I am aware that I can just type on C5 =B14+B20+B26+B32 but and if I wanted the sum of 90 cells? Wouldn't it be too much work to type all the cells? Does Anyone know a formula for it?
I have a range A1:A20 where entering values. I need a function to go true the range and multiple in geometric progression all numbers, if any. ( number of cells with value may range)

I'm using Excel 2010. I have developed a calculator (attached) to make life easier for my colleagues. It works perfectly fine. But one thing keeps bugging me.
In Cell C3 - You have the option to choose "Daily" or "Weekly" (Drop Down). This selection effects your selection for Cell C6.
If you choose Daily in Cell C3 then your options for Cell C6 are restricted to select/enter an amount between £0.00 and £6.00.
If you choose Weekly in Cell C3 then your options for Cell C6 are restricted to select/enter either £0.00 or £12.00.
This works perfect.
However, if I select "Weekly" and then select " £12.00", all my results are perfect which is exactly what I want BUT if I then go back up to C3 and change "Weekly" to "Daily", the £12.00 in C6 remains (though the data validation for "Daily" is restricted to £0.00- £6.00) and all the results are consequently wrong until C6 is changed.
The obvious thing is to delete the £12.00 from Cell C6 or introduce a "clear" button BUT I don't want my colleagues to do this as it leaves the possibility of error and since we are dealing with money, I can't have it.
So what I would love and what would complete this calculator and deem it ready is if every time Cell C3 is selected (i.e. from the drop down list you choose Weekly or Daily) it as a result resets Cell C6 to £0.00.

[URL]....When I select a name in column B, it populates column C's dropdown with that name's list of units. When I select a unity type in column C, I'd like it to automatically populate column E in the same row with the value associated with that unit. The values associated with a particular unit can be found to the right of the sheet. So if in row 2 I select Blake in column B, then Unit 5 in column C, I'd like column E to be populated with 14.
Edit: using Excel 2007.
I attached stripped down version of the sheet which is small enough to post. None of the things I removed should affect the topic at hand. The full sheet is available at rapidshare.
I am currently using a pop up calendar in Excel 2010 that with CTL+SHIFT+B that a calendar pops up, you select your date, and then the calendar closes. What I now need is to write a code or formula or something that when I click in any cell in column F lets say that the calendar opens automatically in that cell and then still close automatically after the date selection is made.

I would like to be able to ask Excel to look through everyones projects and total up how many days everyone has spent on each project eg. if there are 3 people working on 1 project what is the total amount of time spent by everyone.

I am trying to measure how long it takes to locate a file the user wants to open. Eg., from when they click File|Open to when they click the "Open" button in the Open dialog box (after they have navigated through the directories to find their file).
I have approached this by using a class module and withEvents. This uses the Click event to trap when they have hit the File|Open button from the File menu and timestamp it.
class module: EventFileOpen
Public WithEvents cbOpen As CommandBarButton
Private Sub cbOpen_Click(ByVal Ctrl As Office.CommandBarButton, CancelDefault As Boolean)
MsgBox "File open started at: " & Now()
End Sub
Private Sub Class_Initialize()
Set cbOpen = Application. CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=23)
End Sub
Private Sub Class_Terminate()
Set cbOpen = Nothing
End Sub..........
I am looking for a way to measure how long it takes to complete a sub routine in VBA. I have code which posts data to matlab and then calls it back. What I need to know is how long does it take to complete each subroutine.

Is there any simple code to complete this? I am pasting a sample of my code which is using Matlab as a COM server.

I'm making a Excel 2013 spreadsheet that has formula in a column that auto enters a number 1-40 when something is entered to the left of that cell. There are 300 rows in the spreadsheet. I would like to make a drop down list in a column cell to the right that would delete that number in that cell from the drop down list. For example cell C1 has 39, that 39 then is deleted from the drop down list. C2 has 22 in it, click on the drop down list cell and it shows 1-40 less 39 and 22.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have a situation where our portal allows user to download excel file. We have tried to avoid Macros in the excel since some users may have macros disabled or security settings do not allow to download the excel document with macro. The excel is formatted particular way and there are multiple columns where the users have to select values from the lists. When the user manually enters invalid entry in the column, it shows error message and prevent user to enter incorrect value.
But when the user paste values then there is no validation occurs, thus it is possible for user to submit the incorrect value back to the portal. We have much complex logic when the user uploads the filled excel file based on the values selected in the dropdowns.
My Questions are,
1. Can we force the validation on paste without using macro?
2. If it is only possible with macro, then what should be done for those cases when the users have macros disabled.
There are many columns, many list values for each column so it gets difficult to validate the entered values on the submission using program since we have many other validations in which case we are refusing the user to submit the excel. So for each not valid entry if we give user error message then that's not good idea.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am using Excel 2010 .I have set up Data validation for a dropdown box so I can select from a list of items. In the old versions of Excel the actual drop down arrow used to appear in each cell. In the version I have, the drop down arrow only appears when you select the actual cell. When I did the validation I checked the " In-Cell Dropdown", but it still doesnt put the arrow in the cell. Is this functionality available in Excel 2010 ?
My second issue is a formula.
The last name is in a list of items and users have to select Yes or No to theitems on the list. I am wanting to create another spreadsheet that automatically populates based on their responses.
In short, I want to be able to set up a rule or formula that states if the answer in column A is "y" then I need the information in column B to be displayed.
The ultimate aim is to get a automatic sub set, (in another tab), of the orginal information based on users responses.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm running Windows XP with Excel 2010. I would like to be able to have a group of 19 boxes of which each box has a unique entry, ie 1, 3B, 5C etc. Each box I'd like to have a way in which when selected only the single or dual unique characters show as a color. See attached spreadsheet with sample. When a cell with lets say 1 is selected, a drop box appears and the color and description are shown. Select a color but only show the 1 and the color selected, leaving behind the description. How can I do this for all 19 boxes. This seems like its a classic conditional format. Unfortunately it appears to be several orders of difficulty than a normal conditional format.

I'm trying to add a sorting filter dropdown on some columns in a sheet. If I select the column, then use Data -> Filter, it adds the filter. on that column. But then, if I select another column, the "Filter" button in the tool menu is already selected, even though there is no filter for that column. If I click it, the filter on the other column disappears. Then, clicking it again adds a filter for every single column. It seems I'm not able to select f.ex. 3 different columns and add a filter to only those. It's either all or none. Is this how it's supposed to work?
