View 5 RepliesI need to randomize cell ranges A2:F51 across the rows. I don't want data to be randomized in any other way then across rows. Is this possible to do. I have found many apps that make this possible, however I don't know how to incorporate this function into my macro.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have an Excel table with 7 columns. I have used a formula to randomize the data in each column, and it works fine, accept that it resorts/re-randomizes the contents of the table every time data is entered anywhere in the workbook. I would like the data to be sorted/randomized only once, and then only again upon pressing F9, since I have other spreadsheet which reference the data in the table.
This is the formula I use to sort/randomize the data, and I am using Excel 2010 on a PC.
=VLOOKUP(SMALL($C$2:$C$20,B2),($C$2:D20),2,FALSE)
Column B = numbered 1 - 20
Column C = =RAND()
Column D = last of names
Column E = sorted/randomized list of names.
This is a follow-on to a great solution provided by Shg and Rylo. Here is the link. http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...new-sheet.html
My users have run in to an interesting issue with the file. Each time the files opens it has the same 5 questions selected. What I need the code to do is randomize the questions each time the sheet is opened. Basically, the users seem to have a problem using the "make quiz" button, so they have requested that I make sure that the quiz randomizes each time it is opened.
I'm trying to get a random sequence of numbers e.g. 1-20 so that no number is the same i.e. no number appears twice.
I used Int(20 * Rnd + 1) + 1 but this gives me same numbers. Any ideas how i can do that?
How I can create randomize number sets?
Number range 1-80
in each set: 10 random numbers
How many number sets: 5 sets
I'm running a Secret Santa DJ competition this year and today now wish to make the draw.
Basically all entrants send in their mixes (in this case - upload to a webserver) and I then wish to try and use Excel to make the draw.
What I'd like to do is have a list of all the entrants in column a, use RAND() in column b to assign them each a number, and in column c use the list of entrants in column a to assign each person a mix to receive.
Through my browsing and searching on here, I came across the following (entered as an array); it's brilliant but unfortunately gives me duplications.
=INDEX($A$1:$A$10,COUNTA(A:A)-SUM((B1>$B$1:$B$10)+0))
I play in a rock band and i'm trying to create a randomly generated set list based on categories.
Rock, Blues, Slow, & Original are the categories
My sheet of songs is sorted perfectly by these categories already and I have dynamic ranges already named to their respective categories.
the module i am using to randomize these categories does not dynamically expand....
Suppose in a work book I have a list for data in 5 rows.

Is there a way to randomize the data with one created button click (like hyperlink button used for linking) so that it may show any random output like 2,1,4,3,5 etc. Next time another click on randomize button creates another set of totaly random order of the 5 data sets.
I have a table like the one below, only it has a few hundreds of rows and columns and I need a solution in order to fill in the blank spaces with 0 and 1 in order to get the total by row and by column. Is there any way to do this with a formula/macro ?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am trying to average different rows and columns within a larger block data set in a series. This data is from a 96-well absorbance microplate reader experiment. I only mention this to describe the raw data output I am dealing with.
Each set of data is in a 12 x 8 block with the next block below it with one blank row between. So I have a block of data contained between A1->L1->L8. The next block is contained between A10->L10->L17. This continues for a total of 28 blocks.
I want to take averages from rows or columns from each block and autofill them into a single column. So for example I'll need =Average(A1-C1) with =Average(A10-C10) below it and so on and so forth. My problem is that if I try to autofill from this already started column the third row will take the average of A2-C2 instead of A19-C19.
Is there a formula/script for me to skip the correct number of rows to the next data block?

i have a spreadsheet of 1200 rows of data and i need to duplicate these rows 5 times each. is there any way to easily do this and avoid manually inserting or copying/pasting all 1200 rows? all i can find is how to DELETE duplicate rows, not how to ADD them. see below for an example:
original spreadsheet:
1 A
2 B
3 C
desired spreadsheet:
1 A

I have an excel file with multiple sites and I need to delete empty rows base on two repeated words in column A. Empty Rows need to be deleted between the cells in column A called Litter and Community. There are other empty rows that need to stay in so only rows between "litter" followed by "community".

View 1 Replies View Related how can I write a routine to add rows in one Sheet if a condition which involves a different Sheet is met (excel 2007).
In Sheet 1 is a list of ("liquid") names (cells C4:C26) which will need to be expanded should the IF condition be satisfied. In row 27 I have a subtotal (whihc is using data from columns D onwards), and from row 29 down cells are not empty.
The condition I want to verify is in Sheet 4-column I, where it is reported whether a name is classified as "liquid" or "illiquid". If the number of "liquid" names in sheet4-column I is more than the number of names in Sheet1-C4:C26 I would like to add as many rows as the difference between the two lists. Also I would like to make sure that the subtotals that I have in row 27 (and that will be shifted down when new rows are added) will also inlcude the data in the new rows (the subtotal is taking data from columns D onwards).
Should the code need to inlcude the name of the tabs, Sheet 1 is called Summary and Sheet 4 CDS Data.

I have a running worksheet to account for expenses and deposits. At the
bottom of the sheet are the total values. I have to keep "inserting" rows to
move the values further down the sheet.
I frequently work with a data set that has about 35,000 rows and have to split it up into smaller sets. I manually insert a row after every 8,000 rows and then copy each smaller set into a new CSV file. Is it possible to automate this with a macro?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am working in Excel 2010 on a windows 7 machine.
I have a years worth of data by day. I want to sum the values for each week.
For example, Cell B1 is: =sum(a1:a:7)
Cell B2 is: =sum(a8:a14)
Cell b3 is: =sum(a15:a21)
Is there a formula I can write that will increment the numerical portion of the cell by 7? If I drag down cell B1, the resulting formula is: =sum(a2:a8)
I know that I can use either =sumifs or =sumproduct to compare the dates and calculate based on that.
I tried: =sum(a1+7:a7+7) but that returns an error.
Again, don't propose solutions with either =sumifs or =sumproduct since I can already write those formulas.
Swapping the contents of 2 rows, my code does the operation but it is very slow. Here is my code

I have some code that worked perfectly in Excel 2007 but crashes Excel 2010.
The part of the code that appears to be the problem is this:
Code:
For i = LR To 2 Step -1
If Cells(i, 15) = "Delete" Then Rows(i & ":" & i).EntireRow.Delete
Next i
For info., both screen updating and calculation are already both set to manual.
I have a large file with a bunch of color coding and need to delete my red rows only.

I am trying to split up an excel file that has 18000 lines, i want to break this into groups of 100 lines and retain the original header info on line one for each file. Is this possible to do with a macro. I have NO experience with macros of programming so go easy on me. It would be great if it could autosave as book 1 book 2 book 3 or whatever, file name doesn't matter that much.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have an excel file which has many rows that are almost duplicate but some columns would differ, I would like to merge them, I will try to explain what I mean by "merge" .
Code :
Sub Remove_Duplicate()
Dim LASTROW As Long Dim I As Long Dim J As Long Dim K As Long Dim MyVALUE As Variant
[Code]....
Since I am very new to this language and my tinkering doesn't work at all. Whether or not a row is "almost duplicate" is based on columns A to G.
