I have a list of names for my wedding and am making place cards out of scrabble pieces and need to know how many times each individual letter appears in the 150names to know how many of each letter to buy
I'm trying to repeat a macro a set number of times depending on the number a person inputs into cell B3.
Here it is currently: Columns("C:D").Select Range("C4").Activate Selection.Copy Columns("E:E").Select Range("E4").Activate Selection.Insert Shift:=xlToRight Range("C3:D3").Select
I have never built or used a macro before and need very clear step by step instructions. I am just assuming that a macro is the answer to what I am looking for but if there is a simplier solution that would be fantastic.
I need to be able to repeat a row of data a specified amount of times.
Example:
3 Yellow James 2 Green Mark 5 Purple Sue 1 Orange David
Needs to look like:
3 Yellow James 3 Yellow James 3 Yellow James 2 Green Mark 2 Green Mark 5 Purple Sue 5 Purple Sue 5 Purple Sue 5 Purple Sue 5 Purple Sue 1 Orange David
I'll try to explain this the best I can. What I have here is a time study. Teachers (which are the control numbers) fill out bubble sheets, then I run them through a scanner. After dissecting the data from the scanner and formatting it to my liking i get this below.
Each teacher/staff member fills out three sheets per quarter. Each letter (bubble) counts as a 0:15 min period of time. Only K thru Q counts as billable time, which I've created a formula to count those letters (column 3). But to be countable each control number has to have three cycles 201,202,203.
So I need something that can take each control number that has three cycles and add their # of 0:15 together.
The italic row below only has one cycle for that control number, so that needs to be deleted or ignored.
Ultimately I would like the results on a separate sheet.
This is only a part of the file, there are over 1000 different control numbers.
I have created a macro that copies the outcome of a specific calculation (that is driven by random numbers) and pastes it (as values) into a seperate table. It then recalculates the sheet, copies the new outcome and pastes it into the same table at a row beneath the previous one.
However, I would like to be able to determine how many times this loop is repeated (i.e. how many rows of outcomes will be generated) without having to change the macro each time. Is this possible? Maybe by just linking it to a cell where the number of outcomes/repeats is specified.
I've got a set of data that I update once a month and the number of team members per team changes all the time. I'm trying to write a formula that basically says, if the date matches AND the manager name matches, count the number of team members.
In the attached sample if A2 and B4 are found in the data set, count the number of SalesReps they have. So I'm looking at Sarah for February 2013, she has two sales reps that sold something, but Katherine appears twice, so I'm not looking for a result of 3, the correct answer is 2. How do I write the formula?
A2 will look to the data range of A14:A23 and SarahK will look to I14:I23, but I want to count H14:23.
I have a sheet which details specific card numbers in Column A, and the date and place of transaction in the Column B. This very long list contains multiple entries for each card number. What I would like to do is use Sheet2 to list each card number and the number of times it appears in the list.
In cell A2 I have the date 28/12/11, I need that date to repeat 6 times, then in A8 it should say 01/03/11 6 times and so on , I know this can be done but my brain is on a go slow this afternoon and I can't for the life of me work it out
I'm trying to transpose multiple values in Excel, but I'd also like to repeat row values for columns A through E. The attached file "Raw Data" worksheet shows what I start with, and the "End Result" worksheet shows what I'd like the end result to be.
the number of days when there were 0 cases the number of days there was 1 case the number of days when there were 2 cases. As yet there are no days in which there were more than 2 cases but there might be in the future.
I have a list of dates when operations took place in that room. On some days the it was not in use, so those dates don't appear in the list. Some days there was 1 case, so that date appears once in the list. On some days there were two cases, so that date appears twice in the list.
What I've done so far is create a pivot table that contains all the dates, then grouped it by day and counted the number of times there was 1 or 2 cases in a day by hand, then subtracted the total to get the days when there weren't any cases.
how I can have a formula repeat down a column five times before it changes to another formula? For example. Say on tab 1 I have a list of products. On tab two I have five codes that repeat down the page over and over again. On tab two next to the repeating codes I need to repeat product one 5 times and then skip to product 2 on the 6th row and repeat five times and then skip to product 3 on the 11th row and repeat 5 times and so on?
im trying to create a simple random sample from my data set of size n=100 and then i need to repeat that step a 1000 times to make a new data set that i can transfer over to stata. Everything I have seen on the internet involves generating random numbers which isnt what i want. I need to be able to generate a random sample.
Currently my excel spreadsheet consists of 4 columns with 200 entries in each column.
I have a filtered list and want to count the number of times each value appears in the filtered list. I also have other hidden rows that I do not want to include in the count and the filtered rows should not be included in the count either. I have tried countif, pivot tables and subtotal .
I have a list of names in say column A, but the names are prefixed with numbers. So, for example you have 2 Peter Jones, 5 Johnny Piper, 10 Andrea, 3 St. Mary's, 13 White etc.
I want to return these list of names in another column say B, but without the prefixed numbers. So, column B will have Peter Jones, Johnny Piper, Andrea, St. Mary's, White etc.
I have a database output file where one of the columns contains managers names, often more than once. I want to apply an autofilter on manager name and then copy the result to another sheet or sheets. My criteria for the autofilter is a variable pointing to a list of names that at present I maintain by hand; a for-each-next loop then cycles through the names.
What I would like to do, before running the autofilter code, is to create the list of names via code. This would then automatically pickup names that are missing.
The code I have so far is below:
Public Sub find_managers() Dim managers1 As Range Dim names1 As Range Dim n1 As Variant Dim n2 As Variant
In my mind it should check the names in the unique list against the imported list and add any missing names.
I need to compare two lists of client names. One list has 59k names to be compared to second list of 1000 names. The list of 59k are listed in column D and the other list is in Column E. I tried conditional formatting but unfortunately some of the names are slightly different I.e. fair point communications vs fair point communications inc. I was trying to put in v lookup with a trim function but it didn't seem to be working.
I have a long customer listing, names 5 to 36 characters and several with their location in the name as well as a few common duplicate names. I am trying to produce sheet where the customers name once selected opens in the customers spreadsheet and data can be added/amended for sales etc.The lists are not in alphabetical order as when created a customer number is automatically allocated. My aim is just to type in the first letter of the name and the dropdown appears the customer is selected and their card appears. I have tried data validation, lookup, vlookup, Dropdown and Match/find. they only return the first record found and no sign of any others. Find returned all instances of the letter appearing in every name.
Every day I pull a report showing a list of agents that committed an infraction. I want to be able to count how many times each agent committed an infraction. How do I do that? I tried Frequency and it did not work, or am I missing something?
I thought i had worked it out, but for some reason the names aren't updating when i add a new time, and the same names appear when i add the same code for a different track. I was using this code {=INDEX(A2:A32,SMALL(IF(C2:C32<>0,ROW(C2:C32)),1),1)} as you can seen in cell A34, then added a 2 onto it for the second fastest time eg.....{=INDEX(A2:A32,SMALL(IF(C2:C32<>0,ROW(C2:C32)),2),1)}, but doesn't seem to update when adding a new fastest time in. Am i using the wrong code to match the names with the fastest times?
I have been given a list of my firm’s target clients (in excel) and an opportunities report (exported into excel) from our CRM system, which lists all the opportunities (i.e. opportunities to sell/provide products/services) that have been created for each client. Some of the column headings in the opportunities report are as follows:
Client; Opportunity ID; Opportunity Name; Opportunity Description; Created by; Date Created etc.
What I need to do is lookup each client, from the target clients listing, in the opportunities report to see whether an opportunity has been created; and if so, return the row of values (i.e. the Opportunity ID; Opportunity Name; Opportunity Description; Created by; Date Created) for that client. The result will be placed next to the name of the client in the target client worksheet.
I have a couple of problems. Initially I tried to use the VLOOKUP function to lookup the client name in the opportunities report and return the Opportunity ID (I then planned to use the same formula to return values from the other columns); however, as the client names in the target client listing were not always written the same way as they were in the opportunities report, the formula often returned #N/A. The formula I used was
So for example, the first client that I was looking up was written as “ABC Ltd” but in the opportunities report it was written as “ABC Limited”.
My second problem was that for some clients, there were multiple opportunities listed in the opportunities report. Where this was the case, there was a separate row (repeating the client name in the first column) for each opportunity created. I think that was messing up my VLOOKUP formula as well.
Is there a way to look up the client name, from the target client listing, in the opportunities report even if it’s slightly different and return the row of values for each opportunity created for that client on a separate row?
I'm trying to sort out a list of names from a website that publishes names in the following format:
DOE John VAN GOGH Vincent DA VINCI Leonardo NADAL PARERA Rafael JIMENEZ RODRIGUEZ Miguel Angel
What I'd like to do is get the names in the following format
John Doe Vincent Van Gogh Leonardo Da Vinci Rafael Nadal Parera Miguel Angel Jimenez Rodriguez
Basically all the last names - which are all capitalized - would be moved to the end of the text string. Of course any leading spaces should be removed and I guess using the Proper() function, all capitalized words could be capitalized in a standard way.
I found the following function, here: [URL] ...
but what it does is just take the capitalized words and separate them into a separate cell, which is not all of what I want.
create a script that will replace the names in column A on sheet1 from a Master sheet in the same workbook?
The problem is that different users are entering data on sheet1 col A in different ways example someone may enter Johnc or John C Or John What I want is for something to run down col A on sheet1 and look for the like name on the master sheet if the name matches then do nothing but if the name is like another name on the master sheet then replace the name if they are almost alike.
I need to create a function that selects 4 names randomly from a list of 15 names and displays the 4 randomly selected names in the one cell. Also, you cannot repeat the same name in that cell, (i.e. bob cannot be selected twice in his group of four)
