Referencing Sort Value In Fixed Location

Aug 4, 2014

I want to grab the value used to sort and put it in a different field.

example

Sort by City

cell location

A1-B1 "Inventory lists for "(CITY)

A3 - A15 San Jose
A16 - A30 Phoenix
A31 - A35 Portland
A36 - A37 New York

I want to take the chosen sort value and put that in the title but can't figure it out because the cell location changes when a different sort value is chosen.

Save As Macro With Location Prompt But Fixed File Name ?

Dec 29, 2008

For a sheet that many non-expert users will use on different systems I need a macro that let's them save, print and send the results of their work. So I made a macro that makes a copy of only 1 sheet of the workbook and saves it with a given name to a given location. The problem is that I want a location prompt to ask the user where they want the file saved, while giving/suggesting them a fixed filename. A lot of different users will make and use their sheets so I need a certain naming policy to manage all the files. (date, location, etc)

Creating A Reference To A Workbook With A Fixed Location But With A Changeable File Name

Jun 12, 2008

I'm trying take a reference from some workbooks (e.g. WB1.xls,WB2.xls,WB3.xls,...etc)
They are all placed in one folder but there filename is subject to change,

I need to get the result of Cells A1 from WB1.xls+A1 from WB2.xls + A1 from WB3...etc
to shown on AA1 in another workbook(e.g. Collected.XLS)

Is this possible knowing that workbooks filenames are changeable?
Moreover Can the value of A1 from any new workbook added to the same folder be added automatically?...

Can the formula typed in AA1 from Collected.xls be draged down?(So as to show the sum of Cells B1 and C1.....etc) from each workbook?

Interpolation Given A Variable Table Location & Location Of Data Within

Oct 6, 2009

I am trying to develop a spreadsheet that will calculate a cost based on a matrix. I am attaching a sample of the calculation created so far. The end result is in cell M13 and is highlighted in yellow. I kind of layed the formula out in a few different cells, so hopefully it would be easy to follow.

simplify this process with maybe another formula that I might not be aware of, or maybe show me how to get this done in VB code. I think VB code would be the correct way to go just not sure.

Sort Command - Custom Order Or Sort Ascending Or Descending

Oct 8, 2006

Is it possible to make excel sort ascending or descending but from mid way through alphabet and then loop through the alphabet again. for example. If Cell A1 had "A" in, it would sort as normal.

Cell A1 = A
Cell A2 = B
Cell A3 = C
Cell A4 = D
Cell A5 = E

If Cell A1 had "C" in, it would sort from "C" through the alphabet and then loop to the start of the alphabet as shown below.

Cell A1 = C
Cell A2 = D
Cell A3 = E
Cell A4 = A
Cell A5 = B

Formula With Non Fixed Row Number?

Dec 14, 2013

For instance I have a formula such as =sum(A1:A9). But imagine that the range is not always till row 9 but depends on the total number of rows that are in the table. How can I change that 9 so that it takes a number equal to the total rows in the table?

The final formula I want is not that simple one. It is actually

=INDEX($F$1:$F$1047,MATCH(1,INDEX(($G$1:$G$1047=G2)*($L$1:$L$1047<>"47200")*($L$1:$L$1047<>"47700"),0),0)).

I want to change 1047 by the relevant number of rows. Also, I do know how to do it in VBA, but I have a problem with the length of the formula there (not that one, but other bigger than that)

Fixed String Length

Dec 1, 2009

I am trying to create a string of text that grabs info from other cells, which is easy so for example

=A1&A2&A3

would grab all the info from the 3 cells and merge them to create a string, but what I want to do is create a prefixed length.

Lets say A1, A2 and A3 would equal 10 characters in total but B1, B2 and B3 would equal 7 characters, these would be different lengths. so for a visual description I would like them to appear like this

At the moment

01MAIN-HELLO
01DESSERT-HELLO WORLD

Would like

01MAINXXX-HELLO
01DESSERT-HELLO WORLD

This would make both strings the same length and would make it easier for me to export to a custom file that needs a certain length prefix.

Fixed & Incremental Function

Mar 27, 2009

We have a charging system that fixes anything under an hour to 1 hourly rate, then after that we charge in 15min incremental blocks charged at 0.25 of an hour now we need to automate it to make it more econmical. The rate is set at the beginning of each job sheet and the times are inserted in order to get the total minutes worked & what to charge, eg: agreed rate per hour = $A. time1 = 11:45am & time2 = 12:30pm which is 45 minutes total however its under 1 hour so its gets charged at the minimum hourly rate of $A. if total time happened to be 61mins then it would be charged at 1hr 15mins which is ($A x 1.25)

Sumproduct With Fixed Columns

Dec 6, 2013

Im new to excel and problem regarding the sumproduct function.

I have three columns in my sheet1, column A and column B contain 1000 numbers.

Hence, column A goes from A1 to A1000 and column B from B1 to B1000.

In the first row of column C, i want to use sumproduct on A1:A5 with B1:B5.

My problem arises when I want to drag the formula down, in the second row of column C I want

to use sumproduct on A6:A10 with B6:B10 but the formula uses A2:A6 with B2:B6.

Is there a way to fix the ranges when I am using sumprodct so it takes "fixed" ranges like every fifth,

A1:A5 with B1:B5 , A6:A10 with B6:B10, A11:A15 with B11:B15 and so on.

Sum Values Greater Than 0 As A Fixed Value

Jul 19, 2009

I have a column of values. If a row's value is greater than 0, I want to count it as a value of 100 and add the result. I can get this far: =SUMIF(H11:H12,">0")

...but I don't understand what would come next. What I am trying to do is to use the above formula to total the actual sum of an array and then to also create a second column which assigns a maximum value total based on each row's non-zero result being worth up to 100. Using the above formula as a reference again, the formula that I am seeking would return a total value of 200 if both H11 and H12 contained any value greater than 0. I plan to use these two results then to calc a percentage.

Fixed Decimal Places

Jun 6, 2007

Everytime I enter a number, excel automatically converts it to a decimal number.

I type 1 in a cell (or formula box)
Excel returns the value as 0.1

I think it may have to do with the FIX box highlighted to the bottom of the screen. (To the right side of the NUM lock). (I can't paste a screen dump to show the FIX box position). how to remove the FIX box, and/or change excel so that I can enter in numbers normally.

Dynamic Pie Chart With Fixed Colors

Aug 5, 2014

I'm working with a pie chart that has a dynamic range as its data source and a dynamic range as its legend. The chart shows ratios of bought items depending on customer type. So, when you switch from a "Hair" customer to a "Bath & Body" customer, the ratios shift and the legend changes as well (i.e. "Hair - 25%" to "Hair - 10%").

Is there a way to fix the colors permanently so that as the ranges change, the colors remains the same for each category?

I've seen some VBA for it, but it was for data in long columns, whereas my data is in one range in the middle of the worksheet.

I can attach the file if it makes things easier.

Example: Simulating the laptime for a runner where the mean should be 50 and the standard deviation 5,

I tried typing
=50+5*RAND()*(-1^(RANDBETWEEN(1;2)))

That gives me a mean close to 50 which is good but th standard deviation is no where near 5.

Using Autofill With Fixed Rows In A Formula

Mar 8, 2013

I'm trying to autofill "vertically" in a spreadsheet using a formula which loads value from a different sheet.

Lets say I have cell (A1 for example) ='2013'!A39

Now I want to fill A2-A30 in a way that the formula updates to ='2013'!B39, ='2013'!C39, ='2013'!D39...and so on

I've tried using ='2013'!A$39, but this only copies the formula as it is. When I try to autofill cell A2-A30, the formula still is ='2013!A$39

Is this possible to do?
