I would like to set up a worksheet where once an ID number is scanned, the next cell over is populated with that person's name. (i.e. Johnny scans his ID 234567 and in the next cell, "Johnny Smith" is filled in. I have a worksheet with the ID numbers in one column and names in another, I just don't know how to get a second worksheet with a formula that will allow me to do that.
View 2 RepliesThe list at the left is the data (A1:F1900) in the middle the table (is like a parking lot - place number), and in the right is the swap results, I mean if I put the table in front of the list, and want to know what place number 2 was before, I can see was in the position 7 in the table, next #6 was in 8 and so on, see the example:
Code:
2
6
25
31
37
50
1
2
3
4
5
6
[Code]...
when I go to swap the second line I mean 2-6-11-18-etc. the table has to move one cell down like this.
Code:
2
6
25
31
37
50
[Code]...
and for the next number, the same thing, the tabe go down one place and according from the new position swap the numbers.
The position talbe is on H:M from 1 to 500, I don't write H1:M500 because remember this table go down one row every time, and the results in O:T; well at least I don't find another way to explain.
I have set up a forecasting module for my company, which I update on a weekly basis.
Basically, I centered my forecast on an 8 week average. Using all of the various equations in a regression, the 8 week series of data is used close to 500,000 times for each week’s forecast. What I am trying to do is move the 8 week series (A#:G#) and change it to the next set of cells (B#:H#) without having to do it using a filter and change all of the various instances of the occurrence. Because of the nature of the forecast, I will be "rolling" it forward every week, so to be able to do this all at once each week would save me a bunch of time. I tried using the Find/Replace fn by having it use the * symbol in place of the #...and this worked when I had it Find the data, but when I tried to use it to Replace the data, it reported an error?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am a not too good programmer, but I construct chemotherapy regimens for my medical department. They are used to minimise the risk of wrong dosing to patients, etc. Every regimen is an .xlt file, and about a third of them (there are about 100) generate, in addition to pharmaceutical prescription, automatic letters to patients (for those regimens where patients administer oral dosing at home).
These patient-letters have the hospital's logo on them (the logo is a "shape").
However, the problem is that another hospital also wants to use my system. So I will have to replace all these logos with the other hospital's. I would like to do this in an automated way. I have received the other hospital's logo also as a shape.
I have already constructed a data-inserting macro in a separate file. This macro systematically opens each xlt file and replaces the text in key locations according to the file the macro is in (geographical names, etc.).
Is it possible to automatically replace the logo-shapes in a similar way, with these additional facts/wishes in mind:
1. There is always only one type of shape (a logo) in the xlt files.
2. Even though the shapes are exactly the same, it is possible the names are different.
3. The exact location for the shape is different in each xlt file, so I'd like the replacement to get the same top left coordinate as the one it replaces.
I have constructed 2 different files with the same data-inserting macro, each containing one of the logos (so I can change back to my own hospital) and geographic data. When the data-inserting macro is used, I'd like it to identify the shape in the data-inserting file (there's only one shape in this file), copy it, then identify the shape(s) in the present xlt file, and then replace these, in the exact same location.
can anybody write a macro code for the following: We want to have five values representing operative time in a row with a mean in the sixth position. The hard part is to get a macro that will allow us to put in a new value in the first column and have it shift the other values to the right and dump the existing fifth value and come up with a new mean.

Can I do something based around the fact all the USA locations are two letters, whereas all the others are longer?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a file with some statistics on how agents at work performed. This file gets sent to all of them, but before we send it we change the names for a number, so that they don't know how the other agents are doing (avoiding comparisons). People had been doing this manually, but it's getting really complex as the number of agents is increasing. I know that this can be automatized, but I have no idea on how to do it. A simple formula with an IF statement wouldn't be sufficient. Here's an example of the data. The file that is to be modified to be sent to all the agents looks like this:

I have a monthly report with over 2,000 entries per column and it is dynamic (number changes monthly). I'm trying to replace individual department names with "department" but keep certain ones the same. For instance- A,B,C,D stay the same but E-Z need to be changed to "department".

Is an advanced filter macro the best option where I filter NOT A,B,C,D and then change the results to department?
