Number Format Changing Calculated Cell Value

May 20, 2014

I've created a model starting from on another person's workbook, and I'm seeing an issue I haven't seen before.

For instance,

A1 = 10
A2 = 1.5
A3 = A1 * A2 = 15 (all good, so far)

If I change the number of A2 to 0 decimals places, the value shown will be 2 (which is correct, of course), but the value of A3 becomes 20. I would like for this to stay at 15 because the correct value of A2 is 1.5, not the rounded value of 2.

Changing Cell Number Format With VBA

Jul 27, 2012

I believe Range.Numbeformat is the property.

I have a cell with a dropdown picker. If the user chooses "Distractor" from the picker, Worksheet_Change triggers an Inputbox to open, asking what kind of distractor it is. We'll use "Gloves" for this example.

I want the cell to display "Distractor - Gloves" while keeping the actual value as "Distractor"

The following is not working for me:

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim DistractorText As String
Select Case Target.Address
Case "$B$23"
If Target.Value = "Distractor" Then
DistractorText = InputBox("Type of Distractor:")
Target.NumberFormat = "@" & " - " & DistractorText

There's more code, but I copy-pasted the trouble area. The last line using the NumberFormat property is giving me trouble.

Save Number As Text In Txt Format Wo Changing The Format

Mar 1, 2007

In order to export an excel table into another program I first need to save the excel file as .txt. The .txt file can then be imported by the other program.

First I however need to make excel understand that the value should be a text and not a value. I therefore format the number as text (0000150235) by adding "0000150235". After saving the file as .txt the format changes from "0000150235" to """0000150235""". I do however need the format in the .txt file to be "0000150235". Can anyone tell me how I can save "0000150235" as .txt and get the value "0000150235" in the .txt file.

VBA For Changing Number Format Of Chart Labels?

Oct 10, 2013

This should be pretty simple but I don't know how to do it. When I run the macro recorder, it doesnt record the change. I just want to change the number format of the chart labels from currency to a normal number and visa-versa. Why doesnt this work?

Code:
ActiveSheet.ChartObjects("chart 5").SeriesCollection(1).DataLabels.NumberFormat = "[$-809]#,##0.00;-[$-809]#,##0.00"

Rewrite Line Of Code To Prevent Changing Number Format

Aug 5, 2007

The following block of code is evaluating the term in the array, if it exists and the value in col. M is a non integer, (which what I am testing for are fractions) then format the cell to a fraction number format.
That is ok, except it is changing the numberformat on text terms. I want it only to change the numberformat on numeric values.
I added the function Isnumeric to this line:

Isnumeric(cells(i, "M").value) Int(cells(i, "M").value)
which I thought would only evaluate numeric cells only, but this was unsuccessful.

Original Code: Unedited.

For i = 4 To LRowf
For Each Item In Array("HAT", "FTWR", "BOOT", "BOOTG", "BOOTY", "HWRISR", "HWBLTS")
On Error Resume Next
If (Cells(i, "F").Value = Item Or Cells(i, "G").Value = Item) And _
Cells(i, "M").Value Int(Cells(i, "M").Value) Then
Cells(i, "M").NumberFormat = "# ?/?"
On Error GoTo 0
Exit For
'End If
End If

Next Item
Next i

Record Calculated Value Before Changing Inputs?

Jul 11, 2014

A1 = 5
A2 = 7
A3 = A1+A2 = 12

Now I would like to keep value of A3 in cell A7 every time I change input values in A1 and A2 and so on.

A1 = 15
A2 = 8
A3 = 15+8 = 23
A7 = 12

And when an input in A3 > 100, it will popup a message, that a total cannot over 100. My code:

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)

If Target.Row = 1 And Target.Column = 3 Then

Range("A7").Insert , CopyOrigin:=xlFormatFromLeftOrAbove
Range("A3").Value = Range("A7").Value
Exit Sub
Else
If Range("A3").Value > 100 Then MsgBox "Total exceed 100. Check you inputs!"
End If
End Sub

Using Calculated Fields In Pivot Instead Of Changing Raw Data First?

Dec 31, 2013

I created a nice excel file with some cohort analysis regarding the number of months customers of different cohorts stay with a company. Basically I do a little manipulation on the raw sign-up data sheet and then run a pivot on it.

I want to see the cohorts in two ways:
1. number of customers.
2. $ from customers.

I have the first 1 and I want to get the second one without going through the same procedure again (i.e. manipulating the raw data). In order to get the $ terms, all I need is to multiply a $ column in each row in the columns that indicate the number of months that passed since a customer joined (see the attached example file please). When I try to do it with calculated fields in the pivot table, Excel multiplies the total number of customers with total $ from them all put together, which is of course wrong.

Any way to achieve what I want without having to created another data sheet just for $ terms?

I believe the attached excel file: dummy_for_cohort.xlsx

Input And Display Data In Cell In H:mm Format Without Changing To Time

Feb 25, 2010

Can i put into the cells B38-AF38, that would display the sum of B20:AF20 + B24:AF24 + B28:AF28 + B32:AF32 +B36:AF36 in a h:mm format.

When imputing the data into a cell in a h:mm format, I need it to display in that cell and formula bar the h:mm format without having to put an apostrophe in front of "h" or ":mm" value. Once complete, this form is going to go to other trainers to use on their computers and I dont think they would remember to keep putting an apostrophe before the data.

Example:

B20= 1:15 (1h15m) NOT 1:15:00 AM

B24= :30 (30min)

B28= :45 (45min)

B32= 1:45 (1h45m) NOT 1:45:00 AM

B38= 4:15 (4h15min)

I have attached a copy of the form for better clarification.

It doesnt seem to be complicated, but it's certainly a lot more than I thought.

Retain Calculated Field Number Formatting

Aug 16, 2006

I use pivot tables extensively in my job. I have several spreadsheets that feed from acess database tables to build pivot tables. Besides the fields imported from Acess, I also create calculated fields. The problem is, for both the calculated fields and the imported fields, the number formatting does not stick. I know how to go to field settings, then to number, and change the customized format. The problem is, once I take that field out of the pivot table and bring another one with a different format (say, bring a field with currency format and take away one field with a percentage format) and then bring the original field back to the privot table, the number format is gone.

This is really annoying since I work with dozens of fields, and it takes time to change the number settings every time I change fields on the pivot table, and the number of decimal places, etc. I stress that I know how to change the number formatting on fields, it's just that it excel does not remember it afterwards.

I thought that maybe the formulas in excel might allow one to include the formating, but I have not been able to find if this is possible, and if so, how to do it. So, for example, the following formula for a calculated field:

=IF(ISERROR(Contribution/'Block Hours'), "0", (Contribution/'Block Hours'))

would be nice if the formula itself could include the number formating. I tried including something like , 0.00% at the end, but it does not work.

Macro To Lock A Number Cells After Changing A Cell

Jan 5, 2009

I have an excel sheet which is protected (mainly so that the users will not change any formulas) the excel sheet is basically a list

Just to put you in the picture
Column B Is PO Number
Column C Is Remarks
Column D Date
Column E Description
Column F Supplier
Column G Amount

I would like that when Column C changes to "OK Checked" column B C D E F G are protected and locked. But obviously for that particular row.

For example the input of Cell C15 changes to "OK Checked" then B15, C15,E15,F15,G15.
the macro must NOT be fixed to a particular row (in this case 15)

Hyperlink To Cell But To A Cell With Changing Row Number

Oct 5, 2011

At the top of my worksheet, I have a summary table of four regions. These take subtotals from the rows below, which are grouped by each region

I would like to create hyperlinks in my summary table to then go directly to the row below it relates to, however, because I insert and delete rows, I'm not sure how to make my hyperlinks dynamic.

E.g. Four regions are A, B, C and D A is currently found in A10, B in A25, C in A40 and D in A60

If I insert 3 rows above row 15, A is still in A10, B is now in A28, C in A43 and D in A60 (to confirm, summary table and linked cells are all on the same worksheet)

How can I make the hyperlinks in the summary table change automatically so that when clicked it takes me straight to the new row location instead of the previous one?

Change Format Of Cell Into Number?

Dec 15, 2013

I am having slight trouble with the formatting of some cells. Every month I will be copying data into a row, the problem is Excel thinks it's a date instead of an integer of some sort.

The value copied will look something like this:
79:42:00
(meaning 79 hours and 42 minutes)

Excel is taking that and interpreting it as:
1/3/1900 7:42:00 AM

Is there an easy way to format this so Excel thinks it's a number (even if 79.7).

I tried to change the format of the cell to "Text", but it changes it to: 3.32083333333333

Format Number & Text In Same Cell

Jun 28, 2007

i have the next formula

=IF(C6="PRODUCT 1","$"&VLOOKUP(B6,N:T,3,FALSE)&" & "&"$"&VLOOKUP(B6,N:T,5,FALSE),"N/A”)

which aberrantly returns text:

$24.675 & $26.2

I was wandering is there a way to format or put a formula which will format the numbers to be with two decimal places. The cell containing the formula is already formatted as number and the source tables are numbers with two decimal places.

i want the result to look like this
$24.68 & $26.20

2. to use maximum 3 digits... Example: 10,2 or 6.12

I tried with an if function and then round, but I think that's not right way. If number < 10, then round with 2 decimal places else, round with 1 decimal place

Format Cell To Show % As The Number Type-in

May 1, 2014

(3) examples when I type a number to a cell:
If I type a number "1", I want that cell to show 1.000% but not 100.000%.
If I type a number ".2", I want that cell to show 0.200% but not 20.000%.
If I type a number "25.5", I want that cell to show 0.255% but not 2550.000%.

I play around with the below custom format cells but they do not work.
_0.01*#.000%
_0.01*#,.000%
0.01*#,.000%

I could use two cells one for number, other cell has a % mark. But I rather to format a single cell if it is possible.
