I have a list of user attributes which I would like to merge into a template. I have attached a copy of the template and a copy of the user attributes sheet. The attributes have been downloaded directly from a database so there is one attribute per line. For eg 1 user may have 5 cost centres assigned to him. I would like the 5 costs centres to show up under the template. The problem I have is the template is set up for one line per user with multiple fields for cost centres, therefore I need some way of taking the following output.
User Attribute Value
111 CC CA1023
111 CC CA1204
111 CC CA3333
And merging into the following template
User CC1 CC2 CC3
111 CA1023 CA1204 CA3333
Each user has multiple attributes (Cost centre, internal order, etc) I am only worried about the cost centre field for the time being. Also each user may have 0-10 cost centres assigned
Sorry that I'm very new in Excel VBA coder. And, for this topic, I don't even know how to start. I want to make a MS Excel database of a numerous files. This database must be consist of Filename, Location, and it's attribute (let's say updated date, size, hidden status)
I am trying to have the exact same type of text (font, color, boldness, italicizing, underlining, etc) in my target as I have in my source on a character by character basis. The procedure below works for color only. Is there a way I can modify this procedure to include all cell attributes for each character in my target? I looked at the Font properties and couldn't find what I needed. Maybe I need to do it in a totally different way?
For Each cell In source With cell target.Characters(i, Len(.Value2)).Font.Color = .Font.Color i = i + Len(.Value2) + Len(delim) End With
First, to i change the attributes, select the appropriate cell or range and then choose Format, Cells. In the Format Cells dialog box, click the Protection tab and select Locked or Hidden (or both). Unlock cells that accept user input, and lock formula and other cells that should stay unchanged (such as titles). To prevent others from seeing your formulas, lock and hide the formula cells: The results of the formulas will be visible, but the formulas will not.
Now, to protect the worksheet, choose Tools, Protection, Protect Sheet to bring up the Protect Sheet dialog box. but its hideing the formulas. once i protect the cells it wont let me to edit the worsheet (eg- cell height, cell width)
1) What function can I use to replace a specific cell in spreadsheet 2 with what I type in a specific cell in spreadsheet 1 (e.g. type red in spreadsheet 1 in A1 and it will replace a blank cell A1 in spreadsheet 2 with red)? I have around a hundred spreadsheets which I need to name by typing a name in cell A1. Rather than doing this, I already have the names of the spreadsheets in a column.
2) Is there anyway to control the attributes of cells in another spreadsheet? E.g. change to bold, red and specific size font in cell A1 in spreadsheet 2 using cell A1 in spreadsheet 1.
Lets say that you have three cells. The contents of the cells are 1, 2, 3. The contents 1 and 2 have the strikethrough and 3 does not.
How can you perform a lookup from within another cell to find the cell whose content does not have the strike through? (This could also be a search based on finding the cell that does not have the red background etc...)
I'd like to sum up values based on certain cell attributes. Firstly, I don't know if it's possible to define cell attributes and how to do it. Let me put some example:
I have one column where I've put some values and I'd like to sum up the values only for certain cells in this column. In an "OOP approach" I'd use some grouping method based on attributes, so each cell would have an attribute called ID, for example, and I could select only the cell with some desired ID.
I have a list of items in a tab of a workbook that has attributes across the top, with an X in the intersection if the item has that attribute. For example:
Items: Apple Table Paperclip
Attributes: Red Wood Small
The Apple might have an "X" in the intersection of Red and Small, and the Table might only have an "X" in the intsersection with Wood.
I have another tab with five drop downs that can either be blank, or one of the attributes. I want to create a formula that will return the number of items in the list that have an "X" for all the attributes selected in the drop down. Therefore if I selected only "Small" and left the other four blank, the formula might return 2, and if I then select the next drop down and select "Red" the formula would now return 1.
Any thoughts of how I could accomplish this? I am thinking of using a SUMPRODUCT and some sort of Index Match to find the value in the cells selected by the drop down. It seems like Index only returns a row though, and not a column.
I have a set of accounts (general ledger accounts) that the accounting group posts expenses to. every once in awhile a new account is added. This is captured through a pivot that i have built (sheet A).
on another sheet (sheetB) i want to display the accounts that are shown in the pivot so that i can forecast their future activity.
What i am trying to figure out is how can i make the list on Sheet B change when new accounts are added to the pivot on Sheet A (without simply referencing the pivot table making one cell equal the other)? I am not looking for a data validation pull down, i want a full list of the accounts.
I'm helping out a community that puts out a role playing game by making a character sheet for their gaming system. It's normally a pen-and-paper type affair, but a few people have reached out to me and asked me to make it. Now, one thing that I really thought would be nifty would be to make it persistent. I know of the Excel basics, creating basic formulas and the such, but this is where I hit a brick wall.
For the character sheet, they normally have basic attributes on a 1-20 scale. These attributes are accomanied by a bonus. The only thing is those, while these bonuses go across a linear path (For attribute 1, it's -30, for 2 its -20, for 3 its -10, for 4 its -5 for 5 its 0....), I cant seem to figure out how to create some kind of If/Then formula for it....
Heres my example:
Brad makes a character that has a score of 9 for one of his attributes. The bonus given to someone with a 9 is a +10. What I'm looking to do is create a table that sees that 'If (c9)=9, Then (d9)=+10'...
And my second related issue...
Is there any possible way to do the above mentioned formula in relation to a drop down selection bar? It's the same thing here; To break it down simply, It would be excellent if there was a way for it to say If (a10)=Warrior, then (c10)= +10.
I want to do in VBA is to be able to read and place in a variable the image Width and Height of an image in a folder. I can (with help from here) read the filenames in folder. But is there a way in Excel to read the above attibutes?
How to access the full set of attributes of a control when grouped?
I am trying to access the properties of a grouped set of checkboxes (for grouped I mean selected and right click - > Group)
It appears that grouped controls are not accessible through OLEObjects() but they can be accessed as shapes. For example, the following code will set all elements in the group Advertisement2 to .Visibility = False:
For Each T In ActiveSheet.Shapes("Advertisement2").GroupItems T.Visible = True Next However, most other properties, such as .Enabled or .Value are not accessible (probably because the controls are considered shapes). I have tried all sort of solutions, including using .groupItems("ControlName").Value or .groupItems("ControlName").Object.Value
I am trying to take items with multiple market attributes and columnized them so that they can be sorted or filtered.
For example,
Item 110 is suitable for Preteen, Teen, Young Adult, Adult and Senior Item 121 is suitable for Teen and Young Adult Item 250 is suitable for Senior Item 300 is suitable for Young Adult, Adult and Senior
I want to be able to arrange the attributes vertically so that the attributes can be filtered. I'm thinking the easiest way to do it is to duplicate each row as many time as there are attributes and copy each attributes to a single Market column.
My company would receive RFQs from potential customers inquiring the availability of different products, and we are trying to summarise these requests to find a trend.
Each product has several attributes, such as descriptions, keywords, manufacturer's code, etc. The RFQs are all different, with each request providing some attributes while missing others. The only reliably uniform attribute is the product number.
I am trying to build a database with the maximum amount of details on each requested product, therefore consolidating the different requests. I already put the source data on the same sheet and sorted the product numbers. I also know how many instances there are for each product number. In other words, my data look like this:
Product number (sorted) Repeat count Attribute 1 Attribute 2
111a 2 aaaa
[Code] .........
Note: 1. The product numbers and repeat count are reliable 2. All the attributes are valid, i.e. as long as one can fill a blank I would take it 3. If none of the instances provide a certain attribute, it is acceptable for it to be left blank
And I am trying to turn it into this:
Product number (sorted) Repeat count Attribute 1 Attribute 2
111a 2 aaaa bbbb
123456 1 abcde
100x 3 123456 wxyz
I already spent a whole day trying to do it with MATCH, OFFSET, VLOOKUP etc to no avail. It seems I would need some kind of VBS with loop and array functionalities that are beyond me.
I have one workbook which when a macro is run, creates a new workbook. I am trying to then get this new workbook to have both "ReadOnly" and "Hidden" status. but when I use Set attr it only picks up one.
I need to be able to turn of the readonly status and update the file and then re protect it.
Any way to select the last option in a filter list for a pivot using VBA? I already have code to elminate certain critera that I don't want but there is a date column which will change and I will always want to select the last date in the list. Is there a way that I can get VBA to simply look in the filter options and select the last one?
I'm trying to create a Pivot table with various columns comparing information of executives from various Private Equity Firms. Some of the additional columns are Industry Specialty, Harvard Grad Year, My companies contact, etc . . .
The goal is to allow me to then query this information so if I wanted to see all Bain Capital employees who graduated with an MBA in 1990 and their specialty.
My question comes in trying to set up my source list for the data under Industry Specialty and my companies Contact. Is there a way I can set a value for these cells and mark them as an "AND" in the source if there are multiple contacts or industries that one of the Private equity executives is linked too, that would then allow them to be displayed as so when I create the pivot table?
I'm trying to create what is essentially a report card for our staff. I have all the data in a pivot table and then I am using 'GETPIVOTDATA's in the report template to extract the information, linking the sheets via a cell that contains the staff members name. Easy enough. However for reasons of efficiency and practicality I would like to be able to select the names from a drop down list on the sheet rather than having to type it in manually or maintaining a separate sheet for everyone. The operators will change from month to month and there are approximately 90 staff at any given point in time that will need to be reported on so it really needs to be sourced from the pivot data.
I have included some example data and what I need to be able to show in the attached file.
I have tried using pivot tables but need to keep the totals static when I hide a column.
Can anybody suggest another way of achieving what I need? I need the solution to be dynamic (like a pivot table) but need to hide certain data and have totals including the hidden data.
I have a pivot table with a group # on the left, and team members on the right. There are multiple team members in each group, and each are on a separate line in the pivot table, like this:
Group #Team1chrisdawnsally2cassiechrisdawnkathysally3jimjoejohntomGrand Total
I need to find where "sally" is on the team (easy to do"), BUT I need to display the rest of the team members in the group with her, like this:
Group #Team1Sally, Chris, Dawn2Cassie, Kathy, Sally, Dawn, ChrisGrand Total
Using the concatanate function to put them all into one cell and then filtering for "contains" was all I could come up with, but there are 14,000 groups
Originally I considered posting in the Excel / Email area but I know how to automate the email part of this already once I get the data collection I'm looking for. Let me explain. I have a pivot table that consists of reps, accounts, items, and sales data in that order.
For each rep I want to create an email of affected accounts and items with thier respective sales data. Because each rep has a variable number of lines I'm having trouble defining the exact range. I've used a few pieces of code taken from various posts from this forum to start me off but nothing seems to be working, else I'd post what I already have.
The field list does not appear when I create a pivot table in Excel 2007. It works properly if I start Excel in safe mode. I have toggled the field list button in the PivotTable Tools show/hide ribbon and I tried repairing Office 2007 from the control panel.
I am trying to write code so I can control the PivotFields on a PivotTable from another sheet in the book. I cannot figure out how to get Excel to return a list of the fields in each page field. If I record code to change the Animal PivotField to show dogs, i get the following:
I have a userform, on the user form I have a combo box. when i select an item from the combobox list. I want it to show only that item in the pivot table.
Code: Dim i As Integer With ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PivotTable2").PivotFields("Description") For i = 1 To .PivotItems.Count If i = ComboBox2 Then .PivotItems(i).Visible = True Else .PivotItems(i).Visible = False End If Next End With
