Preventing Off Retrieve Data Multiple Times?
Mar 6, 2014
Current program i use follows these steps:
-Empty cells
-Remove comments
- Fill Headers
- Retrieve Data (From the path Results (a subdirectory))
- Sort on date and time (column D)
My Problem: The programma now used retrieves every file in the subdirectory again and again.
If it has like 100-200 files it takes a very long time.
Is it possible to make a function for this that only retrieves files when the filename is not imported already? (Title is in the D Column)
Wish: a function that retrieves only the required data and skips measuring data thats already there.

I have created a Data Validation list in one of my spreadsheets which works fine. The list itself has no duplicates which is fine but when I select my entries in the other spreadsheet, I want to make sure they cannot select the same value twice.
I tried selecting "List" in data validation and using an AND with COUNTIF but it doesn't work.
=AND(Employees, countif($A$1:$A$20,A1)=1)

I have to write some VLOOKUP formulas to pull several items from a report, the problem is there could be multiple items for each lookup value as the example below:
Company Data ABC Monday ABC Friday ABC Thursday DEF Friday GHI Monday
I need to reference every piece of data for every company but using the VLOOKUP formula, I am obviously only able to get the first instance of the lookup value (company ABC)
How to I write the formula to lookup the other data? The practical appliation I am using this for has anywhere from 300 to 400 lookup values.

I have multiple worksheets to add employee details using a form and create worksheets (copy templateSheet and paste) for each employee using their uniq user id, which works fine. I have 12 worksheets named by month (Jan, Feb, Mar.... Dec). I have only 2 worksheets Jan and Feb for test.
I want data from employee worksheet's (worksheets created by employee user id) to be in 'Jan, Feb... Dec' worksheets to use a criteria (userid, worksheet name) to get monthly holiday booked data from employee worksheet (userid and worksheets name are same) to month name worksheet. I can do it manually (Example: =rahmanm!C3
) for each row and column, but I will also have a function to delete employee name and details. Is there anyway in VBA I can update worksheets (Jan, Feb, Mar... Dec) from employee worksheets (rahmanm, hallD, aldridh.. ).

I have a complicated situation with Excel since I need a formula that can SUM data from the Pull 1 worksheet into the summary Sheet. I attached my sample for your reference because it is a bit complicated therefore I can not explain. It is better if you look at my Summary Sheet, need formula that can retrieve the same information.

I have a worksheet with a Change Event and a Selection Change Event.
When a cell is changed first the Change Event triggers and after that the Selection Change Event Triggers.
I have implemented a solution whereby I set Application.EnableEvents = False so that the 2nd Selection Change Event does not trigger.
However, the problem is that I need to turn EnableEvents back to True so that it can continue monitoring for events.
Is there a way to either only allow 1 event to trigger? Or is there a way to turn the Events back on after a pause of a 1 second or so?

THis looks close to what I have been trying to find for months but what if I want to delete duplicates after pasting instead of making an error code? For instance, I have a list of names and addresses and I want to delete any entire row with a duplicate address.

how to protect my spreadsheet from data entry errors.
I have a column of data that must be entered manually (column B). Sometimes, the entry in column B could have been calculated by running a formula run upon the data in column A. Sometimes it has to be entered manually.
Is there a way to use data validation or conditional formatting to make sure that the proper figure is entered into column B when it could have been calculated by a formula to avoid data errors?

I have a set of data (assume 2 columns, one with a long name and the second with a time). The names contain variables that must be used as criteria (a single entry may contain "Blue" and "On"/"Off") and times vary, based on when the Name turns "On" or "Off" [in minutes: 25 (On), 47 (Off), 89 (On), 100 (Off) and 137 (On)]. I need to create another table that automatically inserts values for all times, to include the missing times (0 min thru 24 and 26 thru 46, etc.). EX: If the first entry is "Blue-On" at "25 minutes", the cells from 0 minutes to 24 minutes are each "0" and become a "1" at 25 minutes - the following cells are "1" until 47 minutes (where it is turned off). (1 and 0 represent "On" and "Off", respectively)
How can I created a formula to insert the correct numbers into the correct places? I'm willing to have multiple cells with formulas and simply hide the columns that are doing the calculations.

I've got a table that has to be manipulated by multiple users. Within the table I have several column ranges with validation lists (in drop down boxes) in order to limit responses. However, I'm finding that most of the users are pasting data in from other sources that may not have been in the validation list, or may be in a different format, etc., and it essentially undermines the reason for using the validation.
I've tried protecting the sheets using various options and tried looking around online for a solution, but I'm not finding how to get around this.

I would like a formula to lookup a value across worksheets and if found return the worksheet name that coresponds to that value. I do have this formula below but it will not retrive the correct worksheet name if there are duplcates values.
=INDEX(WSLST,MATCH(TRUE, COUNTIF(INDIRECT("'"&WSLST&"'!B2:B9"),B2)>0,0))
So I tried to use the define names formula method:
Col_B =N(INDIRECT("'"&XWSLST&"'!B"&(2+MOD(S,N))))
N =8
S =ROW(INDIRECT("1:"&(N*ROWS(WSLST))))-1
WSLST =Sheet1!$A$2:$A$3
XWSLST =T(OFFSET(WSLST,INT(S/N),0,1,1))
and modified the formula into this manner: =INDEX(WSLST,MATCH(TRUE,COUNTIF(Col_B,B2=S)>0,0),COUNTIF(B$2:B2,B2))+1
I left a sample workbook below that in column E are the values that I'm expecting.

I still do not have my dummy files ready but wanted to start the discussion on Retrieving Specific Data form Txt file.
Later I will post sample files.
For now, I will appreciate any ideas on how can I refer to specific place in the txt file and get the relevant information to excel spreadsheet.
The criteria for searching the text file must be:
1.Look for specific ABC
2.right below must be a date: 01/20/2010
3.When those two criteria are met then go down and find the first occurrence of the word: “Test”
4.When you find the word, on the right of this word must find numbers
5.Get those numbers to excel

I have 4 columns of data:
Employee; Invoice #, Invoice Total ($), Month of Invoice
I am trying to create a simple report that will display Invoices, By Employee, for a given month. I have tried using the following VLOOKUP statements within an IF statement:
=IF(VLOOKUP(H2,S1DATA,4,FALSE)="OCT",VLOOKUP(H2,S1DATA,2,FALSE),0)
"S1DATA" is the table with the data I described above. I am trying to retrieve data for the month of October. When I use the above statement I get the information that I want, but when I copy the formula down (matching the employee name in H2, H3, H4... etc I continuously get the same invoice information.

I have a webpage with a form, where user can enter their login info and a location number.
- Based on these information I would like the location number to be fed into a Macro, when the user was authorized. The Macro then extract required information and give it back as txt-file ( this Macro is already written).
- The result txt-file need to be convert to an excel file and be availabe on web for downloading.
- -> All of this process must be automatically done. <--
My question is, which language (VBA, PHP, Perl,...) should I use to do the work and how can I do it?

I am updating one sheet within a closed workbook with information from one sheet in another closed workbook. I have been using a connection string similiar to this: "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
"Data Source=C:ExcelData2.xls;" & _
"Extended Properties=""Excel 8.0;HDR=YES"""....
My question is, how do I make a worksheet that is in a closed workbook active. And to be more specific I need to change the name of the file I am saving to and I was hoping to do something like "activeworksheet.saveas=". If you happen to know another way that relates to the way I am connecting and updating information( SQL statements), could you let me know.

I have 2 sheets - one called 'Lookup' that has a table of recipes in the rows and ingredients in the columns. The cross reference of each is the required quantity of that ingredient, if any (obviously..). Both rows and columns are sorted alphabetically.
In the second sheet - Recipe - I have a subset of the recipes (e.g. 'Cakes') along with the applicable subset of ingredients. I've input these by hand, so I assume they can be referenced directly in the function. What I need to do is grab the quantity out of the table for each recipes ingredient. E.g. A6 will have the recipe 'Jamrolypoly' and H1 will have the ingredient 'Jam'. H6 needs to return the value from the table in Lookup.
I'm still (very) new to this but looking around I found the following which seemed to describe the function I am after:
=VLOOKUP(H1, Ingredients, MATCH(A6, Ingredients, 0))
(Ingredients is the name of the table in the Lookup sheet)
I then need to be able to use the returned values in separate equations on sheet 2 to work out costs. This bit I've done already but I've heard that some of the methods of data retrieval return 'N/A' if there is no value, and that would not allow any subsequent calculations using the value.

Is there a way I could achieve copying cell's content minus some characters?
For example in the cell A1 would be: "two apples"
I would put into the B1 cell something like =A1(-4charactersincludingspace) - the result in B1 should be "apples"
Is it understandable what I mean?

A while back i got some assistance from a very helpful member with a formula to retrieve a value from the left most column, that was greater than Col "min" and less than col "MAX" from a range of values.
I never really worked out how this functioned and can’t really make it out of the help files on excel. I am now trying to do a similar lookup from a table of values but only need to find the row value using a greater than less than operation, using a single column.
The original formula was
{=INDEX(A:A,MIN(IF((INDIRECT("MAX")>B3)*(INDIRECT(“min")<B3),ROW(INDIRECT("min")),"")))}
Where B3 was the number to be compared against.

I need a macro to do the following:
I need Invoice # from column A to put in Column I by comparing Name in G and H with Name in D and E.
For Example
Compare Alfred Whitworth (Column G & H) in Column D & F would give Inv # 88530 ...this value will go in column I.
Compare Angela Owens and could not find in Column D and E so leave Column I Blank.
Compare Annabelle Deen would have Inv # 88740
And so on...
