I have a column of numbers which have the - sign at the back end of the number instead of the front. What would be the easiest way to turn that into a negative number without manually keying each one?
View 4 RepliesI have data that comes from a subsytem that places the negative sign at the right of the number, so it is recognized as text. I can get around this using find and replace and then a second step to multiply that by -1, but is there a formula that can do this for me?
I was trying if(right(A1,1)="-",TBD,A1)

I know how to turn off automatic and manual calculation modes manually in excel or through VB. But is there a way to make the automatic calculation mode ignore changes in certian cells? It would be good if you could right click on a cell and turn this on/off as an option. I assume I will have to code this in vb somehow, but I am a novice. Something like:
Sub test123()
For Cells = Value.Range("I7:R22")
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Like I basically want part of my sheet to be set to manual calculation mode, and partially to automatic...
is it possible to display the value in a cell with a £ and also make it automatically go red when the sum is negative?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet that I need to fill up the columns of blank cells stopping when it reaches data above and not overkeying it. If the data was at the top I could fill down and do this by highlighting the column, go to blanks, put in = then ctrl enter and it works, but when I fill UP I can't get this to work since it changes the active cell. Below is an example of what I have on the left in a worksheet and on the right hat I need it to look like. How to fill up without overkeying the data above it. When I fill up it makes the whole column AA Category 1 total and that's not what I find.
unit 2 total
BB category 1 total
division 2 total
unit 2 total
division 2 total
I need to to look like this:
BB category 1 total
division 2 total
unit 2 total
BB category 1 total
AA category 1 total
division 1 total
unit 1 total

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a file contains thousands of rows of purchasing order. the purchasing value is in different local currency,the data(number) format is "Accounting" .
Is there a way to separate the currency sign and the number into different column?
I need to the currency sign to be able to convert data to desired currency. But Excel read the data as number. so I was doing it row by row. Such a pain and not efficient.
I'm trying to return only the following portion of the text from a large list.
So, I want to have just the following phrase appear in a column:
Original
AAM UNIT AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND 13 $77,666,423 $1,132,491
To
AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND
Original
AAM UNIT AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND 13 $77,666,423 $1,132,491
To
AAM HIGH 50 DIVIDEND
Original
FIRST TRUST UNIT FT HIGH DIV EQUITY 15 $13,140,862 $301,295
To
FT HIGH DIV EQUITY
So, I essentially, want any words that appear between "Unit" and the first number that appears before the $ sign (in this case 13 and 15 respectively, but the numbers can be anything - "Unit" stays the same down the list).

View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a formula I can use that will look at the following in an excel cell Daily Numbers Report - Summary_2014-01-26.xls
and then convert that into the date value 41,300. And the same thing for all other cells with the same format...so if was Daily Numbers Report - Summary_2014-01-23.xls the formula would convert it to 41,297.
This spreadsheet will be tracking sales and purchases. I want to be able to have any purchases formatted as an expenditure (negative sign or brackets) to show it is money out. Column C "Action" has a drop down with either Buy (infrequent) or Sell. I want to be able to have column I "Unit Price" be a negative number if the corresponding cell in the same row in Column C = "Buy". I do not have these prices formatted as currency as their are 2 different currency used and I don't know how to make the correct currency format appear automatically, though I do have a drop down validation column for which currency the transaction was in, so maybe that is possible. I know this is probably simple, but I don't spend that much time using Excel. I have some sample data in their for the moment.

I go negative in one column I want it to show up in the next column as a positive number because when I add my income and subtract my bills and the negative from last month to get the what cash I'll have left it screws up because negative subtract a negative is a positive. So how do i get the sum of say B9 to from -$5.00 to +$5.00 into C4 so when i subtract C4 From my income it wont add to it.
