Reformatting Date Into Number. Reformat Cell Not Working. Function Maybe?
Mar 17, 2009
I am rewriting functions for my companies inventory spreadsheets. Excel for some reason took the item codes and formatted them into date format. Right now it is in 10/01/1902 format, and it needs to be in 10-1902 format. I've tried reformatting the cells but so far I haven't found one that works.
I have a spreadsheet where I extract the last 3 digits of a five digit string by using the "=Right(...)" command.
Column A 71500 Column B =right(column a,3) Column C 500 Column D = lookup(Column C,toc_desc) Column E #N/A (if it worked, this would read Labor)
I want to take the result of that command (Column C) and use the "Lookup(...) command to translate type of cost as a name rather than the three digit number (Column D). Excel doesn't recognize the result of the "=Right(...)" command. I am getting #N/A as a result. (Column E). How can I get Excel to read that number and give me the results I need?
I have several non-consistent/non-sequential columns with supposed dates formatted as:
09.04.08 (day/month/year). I'd like a macro where a popup window will allow me to type in columns to execute on (ie. a,g,m,t) & then it will go through & change the dates to REAL date format 04/09/2008 (month/day/year).
If this easy enuf that any of you gurus could write a few lines?
I have set of data in which i want to put filter Milestones Type <> Milestone and a filter Actual date is greater than or equal to 30 days ago and is less than or equal to today.
I developed a program which uses Date function in several places. Problem is that on some machine this function is not working and I'm getting compile error.
What is the reason for that. Is this a system setting??
I have added 3 tables data .. also I had created a sample solution calc for emp1 and project1 ... I need to calculation the ratio between the months based on the working days and allocate the efforts accordingly.
I m trying to use a variable that is declared as a range in a formula. GroupCategory is the name of the sheet its getting the data from. I want to use myRange instead of actually putting in the range. I know there's something wrong where I highlighted in red.
Sub AAmacro() Dim myRange As range Lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row Set myRange = Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(Lastrow - 1, 1)) Sheets("sheet1").Select Range("L2").Formula = "= SUM(INDEX(GroupCategory '!' & myRange,,MATCH(C1,GroupCategory!$A$1:$ AI$1,0)))" End Sub
I've attached a small sample of an excel file I created from a CSV. The date has defaulted to American format and the time is, as you can see, messy. How can I reformat so that I can have British date format and 24 hour clock?
How should i reformat the date and time picker? at this moments, it shows the date in the format of mm/dd/yyyy but the format that i want is dd/mm/yyyy.
I am trying to return a TRUE or FALSE based on a date in a cell.
for example:
if cell A1 = 07/11/2009
I want A2 to show TRUE or FALSE if A1 is 14 days or more behind todays date.
I have tried stuff like:
=IF(A1=TODAY()-14,"True","False")
but it just always says false. EDIT: I have just noticed that if I change the date in A1 to exactly 14 days behind todays, it returns TRUE. So, it does work. Do I need to add a GREATER THAN in there?
I want to reformat some data, arranged as follows, and ignore blank cells
Date1 Time1 blank Time2 Date2 blank Time3
to Date1 Time2 Date1 Time2 Date2 Time3
Code being used, currently writes out lines where a Date exists, but Time cell is blank, what do I need to modify in the code below, to ensure blank times are not written out
Sub test() counter = 2 For i = 1 To Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row For j = 2 To Cells(i, 256).End(xlToLeft).Column Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(counter, 1).Value = Cells(i, 1).Value Sheets("Sheet2").Cells(counter, 2).Value = Cells(i, j).Value counter = counter + 1 Next j Next i End Sub
I have VBA code to perform some actions on data in excel file and then convert all that data into semi-colon separated CSV/text file (code below).
Now, all I want is to add VBA code in the existing macro to find a column header (say, "Application date") and then convert all the dates into YYYY-MM-DD format. The original values in this column don't have a fixed date format.
Code: Public Sub ExportToCsvFile(FName As String, _ Sep As String, SelectionOnly As Boolean, _ AppendDataOnExistingFile As Boolean) Dim WholeLine As String Dim FNum As Integer Dim RowNdx As Long Dim ColNdx As Integer
I'm trying to validate a cell in Excel 2007 that should contain only two letters.
Formula: Code: =IF(AND(LEN(A1)=2,ISTEXT(A1)),TRUE,FALSE) When the value of A1 is JK, the result is TRUE When the value of A1 is 12, the result is FALSE
When the value of A1 is 3K, the result is TRUE When the value of A1 is K3, the result is TRUE
When the value of A1 is 123, the result is FALSE When the value of A1 is JKL, the result is FALSE
When the value of A1 is 3, the result is FALSE When the value of A1 is K, the result is FALSE
The LEN function works as expected, but the ISTEXT function does not, whenever the cell contains a number and a letter. I've tested the LEN and ISTEXT functions separately, and get the same results.
I am now trying to create a excel macro to auto populate all the dates with reference to a start date and end date. The catch is that only working days are required in the range. My reference cells (start and end date) are in Sheet 1 while the destination cell range are in Sheet 2. The reason for creating a macro instead of a function is that the intervals between the start date and end date changes frequently (annual, semi-annual and quarterly) Best case scenario would be a button which I can just press after i input the dates to generate the range of dates in another sheet.
I need a formula that will calculate the number of days from a date entered into cell A1 to today's date. Whether it's before or after todays date. Example:
I have some data which is exported into excel by a package I can't amend. The information comes into excel in the format
00:00:04 (representing hh:mm:ss) but if I look at the formatting of the cell it says the formatting is general. I want to be able to cut and paste this into another spreadsheet and then apply conditional formatting to colour the text if the value is above 00:00:09, but try as I might, I can't! When I cut and paste (even using paste special) it still retains its previous format, and I still can't amend it

I have a global dataset where column A represents longitude, B represents latitude, C is a spinup value which can be ignored (even deleted) and columns D to DH are runoff values for the years 1901 to 2002. The rows extend down to 6510 (including the column headers, 6509 without). I've been trying to create a reformatted table based on this data, where longitude values are listed along row 1 and latitude values are listed in column A, with the corresponding runoff values for each year correctly repositioned into the spreadsheet according to this new 'format'; there will be 102 grids created (one for each year). The longitude values are currently not ordered and will need to be sorted (low to high) into position along row 1, without causing the runoff data to become unassigned to its associated longitude and latitude coordinates.
The second part is to then perform a linear interpolation of the reformatted data for each year's table so that the data is again reformatted' from 1.5-degrees to a 5-minute spatial resolution. This involves creating tables for each runoff year as before, but this time creating new values via application of a linear interpolation between each adjacent pair of existing values (in both the x and y direction - as the data are to be imagined as being on a geographical grid with coordinates). I've currently been trying to achieve this using Fortran, but have been getting nowhere as I'm completely new to this programming language, so I thought I'd try using Excel as I'm more familiar with this, although not sufficiently so to solve this alone!
How can I take a cell with a date in it (A students birthday) and in another cell automatically show how old that student is? (2/18/03 in cell A1 and show 8 in cell A2)
Types: close to 4,000 total cells in the column with multiple repeats Amounts: Obvious Names: Only 6 available names (i.e. Tom, Bill, Fred, Richard, Sam, Alex)
It looks like this:
Type Amount Name Type 1 | $$$$ | Tom Type 1 | $$$$ | Bill Type 2 | $$$$ | Fred Type 3 | $$$$ | Richard Type 3 | $$$$ | Tom Type 3 | $$$$ | Sam Type 3 | $$$$ | Alex Type 4 | $$$$ | Fred
What I want to do is create a table with the parameters using the information contained in the previous table:
Type Tom Bill Fred Richard Sam Alex Type 1 | $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ Type 2 | $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ Type 3 | $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ Type 4 | $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$ $$$$
Is there any way to convert the first table to the second table? I'm using Mac OS/X
I have train departure times stored in rows for each date as follows:
Mon02-Oct8.399.069.4210.0910.3611.12 Tue03-Oct8.399.069.42 Each time/date is in its own cell.
I have hundreds of entries like this and what I want to do is restructure them as follows (on a new sheet). For each date and time couple I want the date in one cell and the time in the the cell to the right. Also please note that not all days have the same amount of dept. times and this also needs to be considered. e.g...........................
I have a report presented in the format such as the one in the attached file.
Current Format.xls
Is there a macro that copies and pastes the data from the original report to a new worksheet with the format such as in the attached file below.
New Format.xls
The reason why i would rather not use Pivot Tables for this purpose is because the pivottable is limiting me from expanding the report to include other looked up data with the AutoFilter option.
