Randomly Select Value Meeting Criteria From Table
Jan 17, 2007I have a table detailing products and product options showing the options possible for each product. Each row has an option class and value(in separate columns):Color Red,Color Orange,Color Blue,Style A Style B and so on. Each product is in column.
Valid options for a product are indicated with a 1, invalid options with a 0. See attached sample file.
For instance, if the product in question is Alpha, then available colors are red and blue.
For a given product I need to return a randomly generated valid option. As I want to be able to drop in additional products and options, I want to return a value without resorting to manually generating a column containing only the valid options. The real data set amounts to dozens of options types and hundreds of parts for which I want to generate test data.

Select Fields At Randomly
Apr 11, 2008I have a workbook with sheet 1 called Support which is basically an input form. The second sheet is called Database.
I want to enter data into the form and via a macro copy the data to the database. I have followed a text book to the letter on how this is to be completed to the letter.
My problem is that when the data is written to the database some of the fields are blank. Using F8 I can step through the VB script which appears to select fields at random.
Select Names Randomly
Apr 17, 2009I'm trying to pull 20 random names from a list of them every time I open the spreadsheet, and have them copied onto the clipboard to be pasted wherever. I have some code I found to accomplish this, but I'm not exactly what you would call VBA savvy. Could anyone look at this and see what I'm doing wrong? Or if it is right what I'm doing wrong to get it to work?

View 4 Replies View RelatedRandomly Select Cells Based A Couple Rules
Nov 6, 2007I have a sheet that has 13 players listed in rows down column A. I have 6 columns each representing a quarter in a game. I was wondering what the best way would be to randomly select 5 players in each column and to distribute each cell selection as equally as possible over the 6 quarters.
So what I am doing is having excel designate equal amounts of playing time for each player each game.
Is this possible.
Can I base this off of previous games?
Randomly Select Varied Amounts Of Data From A List
Sep 10, 2008I have a list of people in column A and a list of Cities that they have visited in column B.
I need to check some of the cities they have visited monthly but don't want to check them all.
I have attached a sheet as an example (this has been scaled down).
The number of cities i want to check for each person varies each month depending on how many cities they have visited.
For example, John has visited 16 cities and i want to check 5 of them. I therefore want 5 random cities that he has visited to appear next to his name at the top. The real list of data is massive so this would be really useful if it is possible.
I have looked at rand but i can't get it to randomly give me more than one city, and i don't understand how to get it to give me say 5 cities one month and say 8 cities the next month purely based on a formula from another cell.
Randomly Select From Alphabet Based On Letter Frequency Distribution
Jan 8, 2008I want to randomly select letters from this distribution (to make random words) but I want the more frequent letters in the distribution to be selected more often so that the word I form have the same distribution. I have the feeling there is a simple solution to this but I couldn't see anything other than the frequency function that I thought I might be able to use. I could populate an array with letters present in numbers according to their frequency and then randomly select from it but is there a more elegant solution? .......

Feb 9, 2010I want to select the first blank cell in the first blank column. I would just look at the column and instruct it to select a given range, but each month the blank column will change (by moving one to the right).
So for example
This Month:
Columns A-Q all have data in it. So, I would need to select cell "R1"
Next Month:
Columns A-R will all have data in it. So, I would then need to select cell "S1" Need code to auto-detect the blank column and then select that column's first cell?

Nov 19, 2013 I have made a table which contains 2 date columns, Both formatted as date (dd-mmm-yy), the second column is calculated as the first column, + 30, The dates work out fine when adding to a date in the first columns, but from a blank cell it displays 30-Jan-00.

30-Jan-00
09-Nov-13

Rather than delete the rows with the blanks in the Started column, is there a formula that I can use so that the cells in the "Finishes" column is left blank when the "Started" cells are blank?
The current formula for cells in the "Finished" column is:
=[@Started]+30

Jul 21, 2014I have two sheets with a table on each. Sheet 1 table 1 has a row of data on jobs we are bidding. If we win the job there is a column where we input a job number. What I would like to happen is that when someone enters a job number in this column, it takes that number and the information that is in two other cells in the same row to table 2 on a sheet 2. This will give us a current jobs sheet. I am using Office365 but some users are using 07 maybe even 03.
View 3 Replies View RelatedCell Values Change Randomly
Aug 14, 2014I created a multipage spreadsheet to track stocks. Two pages import quotes from Microsoft automatically about every 10 minutes. The main page organizes these stock quotes next to the symbols. Stock price, $ change, then % price change.
For example, for symbol INTC,
PRICE cell is =Quotes!D120.
$ change is =Quotes!J120
% change is =Quotes!I120
Now all of a sudden, during a random refresh, EXCEL IS CHANGING THE VALUES from D120 to AB120. J120 to AG120. I120 to AH120. That was after fixing it earlier today. Earlier today it randomly changed those values to something else. Like A, T, and V substitutes for the proper fields. This is happening to about 10 stocks in a row, but I think I saw it on a couple others earlier. It is as if someone is changing these fields (but they aren't!) The fields on the pages being pulled from are staying the same.
