I have a workbook with 8 sheets within it. I want to be able to change the date on the 1st sheet and have the other 7 just automatically change so I don't have to go to each one. I know it can be done, I just can't get it working.
View 5 RepliesI have two columns. In column B is the date of "last check". I column A is the date of "next check". I would like to have cell A2 in yellow color 334 days after the date entered in cell A3 and than in red color 365 days after the date entered in cell A3. Same thing for cell B2 related to date entered in cell B3. Yellow color in cells announces that check will expire within 30 days and red color that check has been expired.

I have Excel 2000, recently when I format a cell to display mm/dd/yyyy and enter mm/dd/yy, it is displaying dd/mm/yyyy. Or it starts out correctly and during a future opening of file it displays incorrectly.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI work as a full-time lifeguard and I have been asked to modify an existing spreadsheet that we use to keep track of everyone's certifications. The criteria is to adjust the cell color based on whether the certification is current, 45 days from expiration, or expired. I am unsure how to set up the rules in the conditional formatting to differentiate between the three categories. I have the certification dates as well as the duration of the certification so I need to be able to have the cell color change accordingly based on the previously mentioned criteria. This is the formula I am currently using just to tell if the certification has expired:
=IF(ISNUMBER(A49),IF((DATE(YEAR(A49)+2,MONTH(A49),DAY(A49)))
I got a calendar macro running, the thing is that when the date is selected (and it gets entered into the cell connected to the macro), it needs to format it according to whether the date selected is today's date or not.
If the date selected in the calendar is today's - then it needs to enter dd/mm/yyyy - h:mm AM/PM, etc...
If it is it not today's date, then I only need dd/mm/yyyy to come up on the output cell.
Short Version: I need to find a way to have the date in a cell be used for both a calculation (one date subtracted from another) AND a conditional format (Cell changes color based on the month). Cell format is mm/dd/yy
Explanation: We enter information for each work order on a row in our Master Work Order List. For each new work order we start a new row at the bottom of the sheet.
We calculate each work order's throughput time by having a formula in column F that subtracts the Start Date in column D from the Complete Date in column E.
F#=E#-D#
All date values are entered as mm/dd/yy and the cell format is mm/dd/yy.
At the end of the month, we put an AVERAGE formula into a cell in column H and, for the sources, use all cells in column F that represent work orders that were completed for THAT month. The problem is not all work orders complete in the order they started and some can start in one month but not complete until 2 months later, so we can't just click-drag a bunch of cells in a column. Sorting doesn't work because after we click and drag a bunch of cells and get the average, when we re-sort back to Sort by Work Order Number, the clicked-cells don't move, but the data does.
We end up just looking up and down column E looking for dates from this month and hope we got them all.
So I thought, "Hey, I know, I'll put conditional formats into column F so that if the date in column E starts with 01 (January), the cell in column F will turn Red, and if it's 02 (February), the cell will turn Orange and so on through the end of the year! That way we could just look for a given color each month and are MUCH less likely to get it wrong!
I added conditional formatting using the LEFT(E#,2) formula, hit [Enter] and... nothing.
I thought, "I"ll set the cell formats to TEXT so the LEFT formula 'sees' the month number!"
So I set the cell formats to TEXT and then the conditional format 'sees' the '01' for January and changes color!!
But now the Throughput Time formula (=E#-D#) doesn't work.
I think it's because Excel can DISPLAY a date as mm/dd/yy (due to Date Format), but it actually calculates date information based on a number that REPRESENTS the mm/dd/yy. I read that Excel 'sees' each date as a number representing time passing, not as "mm/dd/yy" and uses that number for calculations.
SO, is there a way to have a cell's date be 'calculatable' and still have it change color based on the month?
I am trying to create a macro to run from a form button, within a report, to save a file to a variable file path and name depending on the date value in cell B5.
The format of B5 looks like - 13/08/2014 16:39
The file path has folders for each year in format "yyyy" with each year having sub folders for each month in format "mm".
The file name is just the date only and is formatted "dd.mm.yy" e.g. 13.08.14
I have tried the code below in various permutations but always end up with an error - Method 'SaveAs' of object '_Workbook' failed.

I have a spreadsheet with 'due date' for returns in column L and 'received date' for returns, in the adjacent column M.
I would like to get the due date to turn red when it is overdue, ie. the date in the cell has arrived and no return was submitted. By trawlling the forum, I managed to accomplish this with the following in conditional formatting:
Cell value is less than or equal to =TODAY()
All's great.....but - I would like the date to turn back to black if I enter a date in the adjacent received column, column M.
In other words, I want to flag a problem if the due date has passed, but once I receive the return and enter the date I receive it, i would like the due date entry to revert back to the original formatting ie. black. So only the outstanding returns are highlighted.
I have worked out the conditional formatting but i have a question. The cell has a date which is input manually - no formulas or anything
it reads 14/09/09. however can i have the cell automattically turn red once the date =NOW() is the 15th sept??
I have columns of figures with times like 5:52:54 and next to them cells with values that i wish to format based on the time.
that is if the time on the adjacent cell is before 8AM then make the value cell have a red border it does not have to be conditional formatting - Excel 2002 in win7/64
A little background on what i am doing. I have a spreadsheet that tracks when i have blown the dust out of our computers. I have set up conditional formatting so that the text turns red after 300 days and the cell turns yellow after 600 days. However, some computers are in high dust environments. I would like the spreadsheet to tell me to blow the dust out of these sooner. see the attached sheet.

I have to excel files
1. Temperature & Humidity Reading
2. Summary
I tried to copy a date from Temperature & Humidity Reading file using the formula ='[Temperature & Humidity Reading.xlsx]Sensor 7'!$C$2 to Summary file
if the date format is like this 6/10/2013 12:00:00 AM the result is fine, but when i try to copy that formula for the succeeding dates the results is same from what i copied.
I'm trying to analyse all of my bank statenments to see where all my money went!! I've got online banking so I thought it would be a relatively easy process of copying and pasting each month into excel.
Well, that in itself was easy, the problem is with the formatting of the financial numbers. Excel doesn't seem to recognise them as numbers, so at the moment I can't do any manipulation with the numbers. I have tried everything such as:
Format Cells > Number > Number and Currency
Copy and Paste Special > Values only
Copying into Notepad and back into Excel
Even if it appears to have changed the numbers to 'number' or 'currency' formatting by right justifying the numbers, if I try to add up the numbers using the SUM function, it doesn't want to know.
For some reason nothing seems to work - what am I missing?
For an example, I have attached a snippet of the spreadsheet with my starbucks transactions.
In cell c23 i am trying to return a date which is in cell h4 and then the word "to" and then another date in cell l4

i m having problems with a simple formula but i cant get it right
in cell a1
I found this really great vb code for my spreadsheet to be updated with the current date whenever the range is updated. I modified it a bit to include a bit more in the cell A1. what I can't work out is how to format the date so that it only shows me the date as 06/07/2009. It currently returns the date and time.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a column with dates formatted as yyyy-mm-dd (2006-12-21). Then I have a cell with data validation set to a list based off that column, formatted the same way. The problem I run into is that, let say I select 2006-12-21, the value is returned as 12/21/2006. The reason this is a problem is later in my macro, I am using the value to open a file based off that date. I currently have the files named in the same format (2006-12-21.xls). So when the macro goes to open the file, it errors out saying it cannot find 12/21/2006.xls. I have no problem changing the name format for my dated files, however, as you are aware, slashes cannot exist in the file name.
So my question is, when selecting my yyyy-mm-dd formatted date, how to I get the macro to not read the value as mm/dd/yyyy? If it helps, here is the code I am using to retrieve the value:
startDate = Worksheets("Macro").Range("B5").Value
B5 is obviously where the drop down is.
I tried to DL the HTML Maker to post my issue, but for some reason it wouldn't work with Excel2007. The problem is pretty simply, but I can't figure the code out. I have a column of data that looks like this:

Jan 18 @ 7:21pm
Jan 18 @ 7:15pm
Jan 18 @ 5:48pm
Jan 18 @ 5:44pm

Jan 17 @ 12:07am
000000039656 1 Jan 16 @ 5:42pm
000000087214 1 Jan 23 @ 4:07am
Basically month and day with no year. The months are Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr..and so forth. Some cells have no data, others have various numeric characters included (as above). I want a loop that will format to MM/DD/YYYY. I have another column with dates in that format which I can use Offset to pull the year if I need to.
I've been give a string of numbers (e.g. 2172003) and been asked to convert it into a date (converted to: 2/17/2003 ). Besides manually inserting the back slashes, what formula could I use to do it for me? (I've tried using the 'formatting cells' tool and it will not format properly).

What I would like to highlight those cells in green that got to their current state before their due date.
So the date in F is before the Date in H and highlight those in red that did not get to their date in F before the date in H..
I need to enter a range of dates and have any date that falls within that period (regardless of year) highlight. I currently have it referncing two different years, but I need more range than that and I can't get it to highlight dates in July if they were dates that happened 1, 2, 3, etc. years ago.

I format the cells in the 'date' category to display the date as '14-Mar-01' but only some of the dates in the cells are changed. I have entered all the dates in this format: 01/01/09. Why do some cells change to the correct format and others do not.
