i want to create a quote worksheet with a type of material validated list, a type of stock validated list, a volume of material sum, a cost per lb of material varible and a typ of stock % markup to quote stock material. i have a pdf of what i want it to look like i just need help formulating it. thanks. Auto Merged Post;here is a link to the pdf. i am not sure what to call what i want to do...

In Column G I have a Drop down list of dates. In Column H I want to show the month for the dates, as per when they are selected. I tried simple doing in cell H2 "=G2" they changing the format of the cell for just the month. which worked but for the cells in H that haven't had a dates selected yet it brings back January-00 all the way down. I need a way of getting rid of the January-00 but having the cells ready so that wen the date in G is selected the month auto appears in H.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am making a spreadsheet that allows users to select items from a validated data list. Each item in the list has a numeric value in an adjacent column. When the user is entering data they will select from a drop down of the data list in column "A" and I would like to have the numeric value that corresponds with their selection to then autofill in column "B". I have tried VLOOKUP and IF formulas but cannot seem to get anything to work.

Row 1 Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4 Col5 Col6 Total
Row 2 10 "A" 19 "A" 13 "A" 42
Row 3 1 "A" 9 "B" 10 "A" 11
I was trying to have a formula which would add all values in the total column of that row whose adjacent cell has "A" in it . I am not sure if I am clear enough in my explanation but my example above is more clear want I meant .
I tried posting the same post earlier but I guess I was able to explain the same . I was trying to put the formula which will give the total column with a value in which it all gives addition of those values who's adjacent cell as "A" in it in the row .

I have a macro that I am running "onentry" of a worksheet. The problem is that I have some cells that are validated to allow a list. If I manually type a word from the list in the validated cell the macro runs. However, if I make a selection from the list the macro does not run. I guess vba does not see my selection as an entry.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a worksheet containing a cell (say A1) that has a validated list of times (data/validation/list) where the cells in the list contain times in 8 minute increments. The user can select cell A1 and manually select any of the validated times from the list. A vlookup formula on this worksheet uses the content of cell A1 to look for this time in another section of the worksheet. When the time is selected manually, the vlookup formula works properly.
As part of a macro, the macro will change the time in cell A1. I do this in the macro by selecting and copying the desired time from the validation list and pasting it into A1. Cell A1 does change to the new value, however the vlookup formula that uses A1 shows a result of #N/A. If I manually change the time, it again works. I am looking for a way to have the macro change this cell to another time and for the vlookup formula to work as it should.
Do not use validated drop down lists in merged cells.
It will only be a matter of time before it breaks Excel.

This area of my worksheet, Sheets("ACTIVITY").Range("AM2:AM172"), is currently populated by text values from a dynamic, validated list, 'DEL_2'.
Is there a simple way to effectively 'toggle' (on/off) data validation - maybe with right-click - in this area, so that the user can type what they want if their chosen option can't be found in DEL_2?
What I require is the macro code to achieve the following:-
Cells A2, B2 and C2 will be completed manually, however, when a new quotation is required the user must enter a new Control Reference Number in cell E2 and then press the Generate button.
Once pressed the Macro behind the button will generate the following :-
(a) Quote number underneath the last one in column 'A'
(b) Change Ref underneath the last one in column 'B' (this was the ref number input above in E2)
(c) today’s date underneath the last one in column 'C'
(d) a blank Quote Tab i.e. labelled the next number in the sequence i.e. Quote 2, Quote 3 etc which should be created copying the Template Tab
N.B. the total number of Quotes in any one work book should be a maximum of 30 so some form of checking would be required.
I need to calculate a quote over 4 years but the first and last years are not full 12 months.
On Row 20 are monthly costs for each year. The start and end date is in Row 3.
I need to find a formula that can calculate ANNUAL TOTAL for the all these year in Row 22 populated automatically, not just manually times the months in each cell.
Here is a sample file.
I have been using Excel for many years but haven't dived much into using VBA. I believe it holds the answer to my question. I have developed a spreadsheet with 10 tabs that is used for billing customers. I'd like to take it a step further and, on a separate tab, have a quote automatically populated and then be able to be printed. I need for the VBA to scan certain areas in each tab to see if data is present or greater that 1. If there is data present, it would need to list the content of 3 cells (description, quantity, and total cost). I know that I can directly link but it needs to be dynamic and only display/show data that is present (as not all cells will be needed for every client).

Ex '2257894 or '2234. How can one remove those single quotes out of a cell? NOTE: Cell values are not the same length.
I work in sales and when under target I need to know how much more i need to sell to hit target. e.g
quotes 10 sold 1 currently at 10%
my target is 50%
at the minute i would have to work this out manually
like i need to quote and sell the next 8 to hit the 50% target.
What can i use on excel putting my current quotes and sales and my target in so it gives me the quotes and sales i need to do?
I need a formula that allows me to autofill a cell with "X" kind of data after I choose a validated data of Cell A1;

Way to create order and quote numbers. I'm currently starting an order number with a "O" in front of the order number and a "Q" in front of the quote number but this presents a problem when trying to create the next consecutive number because the number has a letter at the start of it so I can't use the method plus 1. I'd just simply remove the "O" and "Q" from these numbers but I need the numbers to be unique from each other and putting the "O" or "Q" in front was the only thing I could come up with to avoid the numbers ever being identical. I often need to look up these numbers and return the values in that row so the numbers need to be unique from one another.
The information for quotes and orders is saved on separate workbooks but I'd still like the numbers to be unique from one another.
Having a letter at the start of each number or a work around for using the plus 1 method when you do have a letter at the start of the number?
I was wondering if there was some way to auto update or resync values in data validated lists which are dependant on information in other cells.
I attach my spreadsheet. My list in Cell F32 changes depending on what has been selected in cell F31. However, my problem is that, until you select cell F32, it still keeps the previous value on display, if you know what I mean. So! What I would like to happen, is when I select a different option in cell F31, then I would like cell F32 to update and show the first available option from the new list?
I am trying to create a basic stock quote reader.
I recorded what happens when I use the "from web" tool from the data tab. I then tried to modify it by allowing me to manually (with the inbox) put in the ticker that I want. When I run it, it does nothing. When I manually put in the ticker symbol for the company, it works.
For instance, I I were to replace
"URL;http://ca.finance.yahoo.com/q?s=" & TICKER & "&ql=1", Destination:=Range("$A$1"))
with
"URL;http://ca.finance.yahoo.com/q?s=ATVI&ql=1", Destination:=Range("$A$1"))
It would then work, but I would have to manually change it every time.
Here is the code

I'm importing data and I have several columns to deal with and will never know how many columns/rows are in a sheet.
I have to create a formated file to test our system every other week, I want to create a File Generator using Excel and the replacement values forumla "& A1 &". However the file is in a CSV format containing a lot of quotes and when I attempt to use a line of the file in a formula with "& < Cell> &" excel reports errors, if you accept excels help it strips out the quotes and commas. Anyway around this? having to have a user save the file is CSV format would be to complicated. Sample file attached.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write macro for hiding columns based on a drop down answer. The drop down would be in cell B7 on Sheet 1. The colums affected would be in each worksheet in the workbook. The data validation would have a drop down selection choice of 1 through 16. The columns affected range would be H through W. For example, in the drop down if 1 was selected, only column H would show. If two, H and I would show...etc. This macro should affect all worksheets in the workbook EXCEPT sheet 1.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to alert a user that he or she has typed in a text string that begins or ends with an apostrophe ' or begins or ends with a quotation mark " so that they can take corrective action in removing these characters. The reasons for this are superflous to this post but what I thought was a logical answer returns a formula error. Here's the scenario:-
A user enters a string of text in cell A1.
Cell B1 checks if the text, if any, in A1 begins or ends with a ' or a " and if it does, returns an "Error" message
The formula I've tried in B1 is =IF(OR(LEFT(A1,1)="'",LEFT(A1,1)=""",RIGHT(A1,1)="'",RIGHT(A1,1)=""")),"Error","Ok") but Excel will have none of it.
I am using Microsoft 2013 and am looking for 4 formulas in order to split 1 cell in to 4 (across same row). Number of characters varies between each instance of """.
I would like the formulas to start in column B-D (data in A)
I am looking at formulas based on specific instances of a quote mark in cell from data in column A
Formula 1 - Return with characters up to and including the 5th instance of """
Formula 2 - Return with characters after 5th """ and up to and including 6th """
Formula 3 - Return with characters after 6th """ and up to and including 7th """
Formula 4 - Return with characters after the 7th instance of """
Example below...
Cell A1
xxyy","aabb","ee,ff,""gghh"hh,"llmm,mmnbijp"oossww"
Desired results
Cell B1 - Formula 1
xxyy","aabb","ee,ff,"
Cell C1 - Formula 2
"gghh"
Cell D1 - Formula 3
hh,"
Cell E1 - Formula 4
mmnbijp"oossww"
I am a SAS programmer and often use SAS Proc Export to dump data to Excel. Sometimes the data is an Excel formula, e.g.
=hyperlink("#Sheet1!r1c1","click here")
Because the data is text, what get's put in the cell is '=HYPERLINK("#Sheet1!r1c1","click here") (note leading single quote).
I cannot use the replace function to edit them out, so must hand edit each one out -tedious at best.

I have a Change Event macro that works properly. I also have several cells that contain a drop down list. If a user tries to enter an incorrect entry...the debug is triggered on my even change macro.

.ScreenUpdating = False
.EnableEvents = False

In a large range of cells, how I can remove the single quote at the beginning of the contents of each cell? (without single quote they would be formulas). It didn't work using CTRL + L and trying to replace the single quote by blank applying this to the whole range. I am currently using Excel 2003.
Example:
cell a1 contents: '= IF (I17 = "----------", "----------", E17-C17)
cell a2 contents: '= IF (I18 = "----------", "----------", E18-C18)
cell a3 contents: '= IF (I19 = "----------", "----------", E19-C19)
....
etc., etc., etc.

I need help with a macro for copying and pasting of cells. I believe this should not be a problem for the Excel VBA experts, but for someone who can only record macro, I'm really at a loss.
Attached is a sample file, where sheet 'Source' is an example of the sheet from which data are to be copied. The other sheet, sheet 'Final' is an example of the final format that I need. The reason I'm doing this is I'm planning to upload my data into Access and so I need to convert them into a list format.
List of target columns in sheet 'Final' and source cells in sheet 'Source':
Column A: Biz ID - not sure if I really need this, by right it should be listed automatically once I paste the data
Column B: B2 of 'Source'
Column C: B2 of 'Source'
Column D: B1 of 'Source'
Column E: row 6, relevant column
column F: column K
column G: row 5, relevant column
column H: the specific amount
So basically I'm creating an entry for every amount in the table.
I am trying to create a sub-list from a master list based on a column criteria.
Basically, we have a large group of people that are now being split into 3 different sub groups, but still part of the whole. I would like to only upkeep the master list by assigning one of 3 managers to each employee and then having Excel place the employee's info (5 columns) into a seperate worksheet based on the manager assigned (3 seperate worksheets, one for each manager). I have searched through books and Excel help, but still cannot find any formula that can return multiple lines based on one criteria. Am I out of luck and forced to maintain this database with an Auto Filter and manually moving/copying the info?
