I currently use a Core2 Duo PC and often max out the both CPU for extended periods when recalculating large (30MB+) spreadsheets.
Wondering if anyone has experience with Quad Core desktop PC's and large files and if there is a noticeable / significant performance improvement with more cores..
Ram doesn't seem to be an issue.
What I want to do: find the four cell that have the same value "99" in belows configurations
A B C D
1 99
2 99
3 99
4 99
A B C D
1 99
2 99
3 99
4 99
Text configuration - how can I tell a cell to pick up a phrase from one cell, but if that phrase is equal to one particular phrase, then produce a blank.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a workbook with several worksheets in it. 4 of them have macros written in them, some do not. I protected each sheet with a password and made it so that users couldn't select any "locked" cells, and did this on ALL the worksheets. I noticed now that, just upon opening the workbook (not running any macros yet), on the sheets with macros I'm able to select locked cells (which is wrong), but the sheets without macros still function correctly. I think that this may have to do with Excel's default protecting arrangement where you can select either locked or unlocked cells. I specifically locked all worksheets with the correct arrangement but every time I open the workbook some of the worksheets default back to Excel's default arrangement. What can I do about this problem? I need this configuration to follow the workbook and not the specific computer it's on. Many users are going to use this, and can't be able to select locked cells. My macros do unprotect and re-protect the sheets to run, and I'd wonder if I can edit these to protect the sheets in a different configuration (which I don't think I can do with regards to being able to select locked cells) but these macros don't even run before this happens, and the worksheet open event doesn't involve any unlocking or re-locking (it just disables the cut and drag-and-drop functions.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am creating a box CBM optimizing tool at work for shipping our products internationally so that the sales department and logistics can estimate shipping costs and weights with out needing me to physically pack everything in advance. I have broken every product we sell into individual CBM's as well as the boxes that we use to ship. I have also set it up to give a break down of "boxes needed" to accommodate the approximated CBM by box size.
How to create a function that will take that info and calculate which combination of boxes will utilize the available space... In other words, how do i take my break down of the 6 box sizes available, with the "# of boxes needed" data i already have, and have it tell me which combination of boxes will utilize the maximum percentage of space, or leave the least amount of unused space based off of the cumulative CBM being shipped.
