I have a spreadsheet setup like a timesheet: Employee Name, Classification, Rate, etc.
I setup the Employee Name field as a drop-down. Since there are numerous employees with different rates, I want to just select a name so that the other fields fill-in with the appropriate rates.
I am trying to set up a "diet log" for my nephew to track his eating habits for a school project. I am trying to make the "total" section of the attached spread sheet auto calculating depending on the information placed in the "breakfast / lunch / dinner / snack" catagories. I have two worksheets in the file. The first being the preferred method of a single cell and seperating the items using only a ",". The second sheet has a little bit different lay out which I don't think will work as nicely.
Honestly, I am not sure if this will even be possible, but I figured I would try here as a final resort. Currently there are just some sample foods in there as I will let him fill in the actual workbook for his use.
Im struggling to find a formula to populate cells based on values to be checked in two fields (ICODE, COMPANY) as shown below.
In the example here, all records where ever the ICODE = 49, i need to populate the fields(columns) AD1,AD2,AD3 or AD4 with the product name of the same company where the ICODE <> 49. There could be between 1-7 products per company.

I'm doing a study of wind turbines, which are spread over a test field. There are 6 turbines, each checked once a day and produces a value. I look up what the weather man says it should be, "Reported" field.

The "Compare" field values must match all values for each turbine. The speeds identify the location with the best match speed against output of power generated. As each value in "Compared" is the best speed for that type of turbine.
I have a table of data from which I would like to extract the information which is listed horizontally.

On the 2nd worksheet I have a form which I have designed to which I would like to extract the information from the 1st worksheet.
I am hoping that it is possible to start entering a code based on some reference on the Name. Eg SMITJOHN
Once the code is true or correct it will populate certain cells on the 2nd worksheet automatically.

I have a spreadsheet with a heap of raw data in it. I need to perform a search based on a customer name, then return certain columns from the raw data IF the customer name is matched in one column, AND a special flag name is matched in a second column. The customer name is always a single entry for the purpose of the query, however the special flag must be checked against a possible list of values in a table. I know this is hard to explain, and I can't add attachments to my posts, so I have created a sample document and placed in in dropbox:

- The macro should then try to find this data on the worksheet "Sheet2" in the same workbook. This data on Sheet2 is essentially a table with four columns "Number" (Col A), "Country" (Col B), "Consol" (Col C) and "Bypass" (Col D) but can have around 70k rows
- It should look for Number first, and if its not found, the macro should insert the message "Update OK" in cell A8 on Sheet1
- If it finds at least 1 row for the Number but the Country is the same for all the rows and it matches the value input for Country on Sheet1, then it insert the message "Multiple Records - Update OK" in cell A8 on Sheet1
- If it finds at least 1 row for the Number but the Country is the same for all the rows and it does not match the value input for Country on Sheet1, and if all Bypass fields in Sheet2 have "Y" but the Bypass field input on Sheet1 has "N", then put "Multiple Records - Update OK" in cell A8 on Sheet1
- If it finds at least 1 row for the Number but the Country is the same for all the rows and it does not match the value input for Country on Sheet1, and if all Bypass fields in Sheet2 have "N" but the Bypass field input on Sheet1 has "Y", then put "Multiple Records - Bypass - Do Not Update" in cell A8 on Sheet1
- If it finds at least 1 row for the Number but the Country is the same for all the rows that have a Bypass value of "N" and it does match the value input for Country on Sheet1 then put "Multiple Records - No Need to Update" in cell A8 on Sheet1
- If it finds at least 1 row for the Number but the Country is different for all the rows that have a Bypass value of "N", then put "Multiple Records - Refer" in cell A8 on Sheet1

Is there a way that I can set up more than 1 sublists in excel? Below is the criteria and conditions. I was able to create the Primary List and then the first sub-list but that is it.
Primary List:
Business Unit
1. Majors
2. SBS
Sub Lists 1:
Case Type/Request (All Case Types should link to the primary lists for all business units)
Sub List 2:
Depending on the case selection in sub list 1, this should show the Queue Name and/or Email Address that the case should be routed too.
Below is a screen print to show the setup of the excel file.
Column A is the Business Units
Row 1 is the Case Type/Request
Column B/Row 2 and on are the actual queue names and/or email addresses.

I have 37 workbooks that are timesheets for employees for calendar 2007. Each one has 52 tabs for the weeks of the year. Each worksheet has a particular column that needs to have a drop-down selection. That's working fine as long as I do it one worksheet at a time.
Since I don't relish doing this 1,924 times (37 employees x 52 weeks), I opened a workbook and selected all tabs (first, shift, last), but when I tried to highlight the cells that need the drop-down info, "Validation" under "Data" was grayed out. I checked another sheet and found the same thing. As long as I do it one worksheet at a time, it works fine.
Can data validation, for the purpose of adding drop-downs, not be done across multiple worksheets within the same workbook?
I am needing to create 2 drop downs that are dependent on 1 drop down. I have named lists that are on another worksheet. I've gotten so far as getting the 1st 2 drop down lists work but my third drop down I just can't figure out what the formula needs to be. HELP!! I've been working on this for a week now and I'm losing my mind. I've checked the contextures website and it does NOT answer this question.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have multiple sheets (Sheets "A", "B", "C", etc) with the same structure and formatting. For these sheets ("A", "B", "C", etc.), I want to create dropdown lists in column F (cells F2:F100) based on values from a different worksheet (Sheet "DropDown", Cells "B2:B130").
I saw a previous post [URL]... which had a single sheet example. I am trying to come up with vba code for multiple sheets and so far it's not working.
VB:
Dim wkst As Worksheet
For Each wkst In ThisWorkbook.Sheets
ThisWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="listdata", RefersTo:= _ "=dropdown!$B$2:$B$130"

Is it possible to create a formula using a Data Validation List where it will add a new entry to the existing entries in a cell?
For example: I have a data validation list with the names of Pete, Chris, Bruce, Carly, Megan, and Becky. With the normal data validation set I can select one entry and it will be output into the designated cell. If I select Bruce then Bruce with be placed in the cell. Is it possible to set it up so that each time I click on data validation it will add an entry to the already existing entry? E.g. I have already selected Bruce then I decide to add Becky, I want the output cell to show both Bruce and Becky.
I know I can do this with a formula that will place all the results from different cells into a single cell, but I would then have to create multiple data validation entries of which I would rather avoid if possible. Not to mention I don't remember how to do this formula anyway......
trying to substitute out values that i am using in data validation. From the sentence:
Consulting (Logistics, IT, Management)
I would like to remove the spaces, the (, the ) and the commas so that it reads:
ConsultingLogisticsITManagement
So that i can use it for data validation.
In the data validation box i am trying the formula:
=INDIRECT(SUBSTITUTE(substitute(substitute(substitute(c2," ",""),"(",""),")",""),",","")
But i keep getting told i have an error.
I have multiple worksheets with different data which are as follows:
Sheet 1 - Pricing
Sheet 2 - Selections
Sheet 3 - Summaries (created later with a pivot table)
For the most part I have the sheet working as I want it to, the issue I have is on the selections sheet. The Selections sheet has data validation linked to the All Data sheet via a drop down list, what I would like it to be able to do is to display in the dropdown list 2 separate columns from the All Data list rather than just the primary list.
Allow me to elaborate:
Sheet 1:
Column A; Socket, Socket, Socket, Cable, Cable
Column B, Supplier A, Supplier B, Supplier C, Supplier A, Supplier B
So just to confirm I would like to be able to select the item from column A but it also display (while selecting), column B side by side so that a comparison can be made as part of the selection process.
I've looked at the data validation tips and understand how to make a second dropdown dependent on the 1st, but how about a 3rd dependent on the prior 2 selections and so on.
I would like to have dropdowns based on a dataset of 4 columns (Location, Department, WorkGroup, Employee) that frequently gets updated. I would like to have the user select a location then a department then workgroup and employee. I would then fill in a worksheet with other pertinent information. I can get the 1st two dropdowns to work, but haven't found the key to being able to continue to drill down based on the 1st two options.
I have created a DAta Validation List and it only select one item. I want it to select as many items that is on the list but i can't get it to work for my main worksheet I am working on. I can't figure out why I can't get it to work for the work sheet "This Don't" but it works for the worksheet "This Works" why and how I can change it so both Reason (Column F and H can) select mutliple items on there.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to apply data validation to a column of cells using named ranges. However, each row has a unique associated named range. For example:
A_______B
Birds____*
Dogs____*
Cats____*
I can easily apply data validation to these three rows separately using named ranges.
Ie three separate named ranges:
=Birds
=Dogs
=Cats
However, I need a way to quickly apply data validation to column B using different named ranges for each row because there are about 2,000 rows. Is there a way to reference text in the cells of column A that contains the name of the named range? Or maybe a bit of VB code that could do it quickly?
I currently am using Data Validation drop-downs (which are identically referenced) in a number of cells (From J10 to J19). Each entry refers to a Crew departure &/or arrival time (based on an Aircraft schedule) and crew Subsistence & allowance ($17 per day). Referenced from “K10:K19” is USD currency:
DAYS:CURRENCY:
“J10:J19” “K10:K19”
“FULL-WEEK”(References 7 Days) = “USD 120.00”
“SATURDAY (DEPART)”(References 2 Days) = “USD 35.00”
“SATURDAY (ARRIVE)”(References 6 Days) = “USD 100.00”
“TUESDAY (DEPART)”(References 5 Days) = “USD 85.00”
“TUESDAY (ARRIVE)”(References 3 Days) = “USD 50.00”
I am trying to establish a way to specifically; select a particular day in the Data Validation drop-down menu (J10:J19) and a formula automatically converting the result to “USD Currency” for each of the 5 alternatives?
So in other words, each data validation cell will have 5 matching formulas pertinent to each specific orientation (Day)?
E.G.Select “FULL WEEK” from the drop-down option and “USD 120.00” is revealed / converted?
Select “SATURDAY (DEPART)” from the drop-down and “USD 35.00” is revealed?
... “SATURDAY (ARRIVE)” = “USD 100.00”
... “TUESDAY (DEPART)” = “USD 85.00”
... “TUESDAY (ARRIVE)” = “USD 50.00”
The closest I have managed (with no real success) is as per the following formula:
IF(T26="FULL_WEEK",X26,IF(T26="TUESDAY_(ARR)",X27,IF(T26="SATURDAY_(ARR)",X28,IF(T26="TUESDAY_(DEP)" ,X29,IF(T26="SATURDAY_(DEP)",X30)))))
I would be so incredibly grateful if somebody could help me (in laymen’s terms)?
I have researched and used some code that allows the user to select mutliple items from a list. This is using the Data Validation tool with a list and some code in the relavent sheet. It all works well and as described.
However, when I lock the Worksheet, the multi selection no longer works. Selection cells are ofcourse unlocked when sheet is protected.
I have also trialed unlocking the whole row that the multi selection exists in, no effect.
My understanding of this code is at about 50%.
Is there a way of being able to lock the sheet and retain this ability of multi selection. Maybe there is some other code I could refer too?

Can you create a Pull-down List that contains data from Multiple Ranges.
If I have a List of Names Running down column A (A2:A10) another List of Names Running Down B (B2:B25) and a Third down C (C1:C15) each of them named Ranges ("List1", "List2" & "List3"), can I create a Pull-down list in Cell A1 that would include the names from all three ranges?
I am trying to make a drop down list and based on what I select from the drop down needs to populate a different drop down list with information based on what I select.
For example: if I have Sheet1, Sheet2, Sheet3 and Sheet4.
Inside of Sheet4 (My Main Sheet) I have a Data Validation (Drop Down list) in Cell A5 and Cell B5
I would like to choose Sheet1 from Cell A5 and in that same sheet (Sheet4) in Cell B5 I want to have a drop down with a list of names that are located in Sheet1 in Column A:A.
Or If I would've picked Sheet2 in Cell A5 of (Sheet4), I would like to see a drop down with a list of names in Cell B5 (Sheet4) that are on Sheet2 in Column A:A . Is this possible?
So far I could achive it if information I want is located on the same Sheet. But I need it to work if info is located on different Sheets
is it possible to refer to more then one named range in my validated list's source field? If not, how can i make more than 1 named range to be the source of my validated list.
View 9 Replies View RelatedSo, I need to figure out how to make the populated contents of a single dropdown box dependent upon the selected results in two other drop downs.
As there are ~35K lines in the sheet, creating Lists is impractical, and VBA is out due to client security settings.
My data sort order is: Region Name > Area # > Facility Name
I have a drop down to select the Region I want to work in.
The drop-down for Area # populates based on the selection from Region Name.
The hang-up is that the area numbers are 1-4 for each Region.
So, I can't simply populate another drop-down for Facility from the result from Area #, but it has to be based upon the results of both of the former results.

I have three individual lists and I am using a formula like this for each of them =OFFSET(Table1,MATCH(F15,Table1,0)-1,1,COUNTIF(Table1,F15),1)
for my final cell I need to create another data validation list which is depenant on the values selected in the previous three lists.. how I would alter the formula to allow me to do that? I tried using and after the match to match all three tables but it never worked
I've found a nice looking formula for looking up multiple values from a Data Validation List which you can find here.
Unfortunately I dont know why im getting a #REF! error for one of my spreadsheets. Here is my Formula {=SUM(VLOOKUP(A2,D:D,{6,7,8},0))}
A2 is the Data Validation drop down list that has most of the Values (Letters & Numbers) I want to look up. D:D is where it will find the Values (Letters & Numbers) and {6,7,8} is the currency I want added up and displayed.
I've tried this formula on other spreadsheets with success, but no success with the spreadsheet im working on currently.
I watched a video on youtbe. And the women had three or four items in drop down box. She was using vba. When i emailed her to ask her how she did this, she kept telling me to go to her website and i was supose to figure it out on my own. I am trying to do a start up construction company. the link to her site is as follows Select Multiple Items from Excel Data Validation List - YouTube the idea of what i want to do, is how she clicks on a word and it follows in the coloumn to the right going down. This is what i need to know how to do. It is probably pretty elementary to many of you. But i build, i know how to read prints, to cut footprints for new homes etc. But when it comes to excel i am so green.
