Scientific Data: Timestamp
Oct 25, 2008
I am attempting to enter Timestamp data from a movie in this format:
minute:second.millisecond
When I enter a frame timestamp of 18 minutes, 42 seconds, and 5 milliseconds, excel auto formats this data to 12:18:43AM.
This is not what I want. I have attempted multiple types of cell formats in an attempt to enter this data without auto formatting. One requirement for the format is the ability to subtract two of the times for a change in time measurement. I have tried every setting under the "Time" format list, as well as custom formats, which fail to subtract.

I work for a company that exports data from a website into Excel.
So here's my problem:
The data is usually Part Numbers using numbers and letters. When a Part Number is, for example, 248E12 we have this reaccurring issue. Importing it into Excel automatically converts it to scientific notation (ie. 248E+12 or 2.48E+14 to be exact). "Format Cell" doesn't convert it back because it was auto-converted when "exported". I need a way of fixing this problem without going line by line and doing the math to convert it myself.
I don't have time for that. Some of my files have thousands of lines.

I have a workbook that requires refreshed source data each day. The workbook has all of the macros and formulas that analyze the data. I have the following code to import the worksheet with the raw data (onto a fresh worksheet in the calculation workbook), but I would like to create code that also adds the date and time to the imported data worksheet -- not the date/time the raw data was created; instead, when it was imported into my calculation workbook.
Below is my code for importing the raw data worksheet:

I'm trying to filter a long list to look for specific employee numbers. The employee numbers are so long that they have to be formatted as text or they are automatically formatted as scientific notation (they are 18 digits long). For some reason this is causing the filter not to work properly.
Employee ID

When I download data from server side into excel, specific number such as "83437E207" gets converted into scientific number such as "8.3437E+211".
Is there a way to format excel to always to read numeric data as numbers only.

I have a large file with account numbers in Number format. Before I can import the data into a database the account numbers need to be converted to Text. I use Text(A1,0) to do this in a large file. The data then gets copied into a new Import file. When the data gets copied the account cell reverts back to scientific notation for the long account strings. The import file account column is formated for Text. The only fix is to then double click on each account that is in scientific notation to convert it back to text.
Is there another text formula I can use?

I run a macro that imports a table from web page:
[url]
I import only the table with no formatting.
Excel tries to be helpful, and formats some of the cells in scientific notation.
I have tried to format the column to the "Text" format prior to the import with
Columns(2).NumberFormat = "@"
This does not work. If you import the table you can see that rows 1405, 1406, 1407, 1408 all have the same scientific notation value. Their true values should be 0E0, 0E4, 0E8, 0E9 respectively.
There are quite a few other instances in the column when a text value has "E" for the second character that Excel will format on its own.

Im importing figures into column G of my worksheet, and I need a code so it automatically adds a "0" to the start of each row in column G plus format it.
For example, im pasting in 970702090341 but its showing as 9.70702E+11.
Once I format the cell to 'number' and 0 decimal places it looks fine, but want to save the hassle of doing it each time. Plus I need a zero at the start.
Is there a code possible for this?

I need to have all of my number be "x10^-6", but Excel wants to make them, for instance, 7.66x10^-3, when I need it to read "7660x10^-6". How can I force excel to do this?

Is there a way to put a time stamp with the users name into an adjacent cell when a cell is updated?
In case that didn’t make sense I will tell you what I need this for. We are creating new time cards that require both employee and manager approval on them. We have many remote employees and getting their signature can be a pain. If they could click a button on the time card that stamped their name and time that would be ideal. They would then send to their manager they would click to verify the time and it would stamp it as well.

I would like to set up an Excel spreadsheet for conducting a time and motion study in a workplace setting where someone follows an employee around to document how much time is spent on a variety of activities. Since the person would have a mobile tablet PC to walk around with and track the data, I would like to capture 3 fields of information:
1) Category of function being performed
2) Start date/time of function
3) Stop date/time of function
For #1, I would like to have a drop down box that appears in each row of Column A with a predefined list (i.e. Activity A, Activity B, Activity C, etc.). For #2 and #3, I would like to create a macro that "timestamps" the current date/time when a blank cell is "clicked".

=IF(D2<>"",IF(A2="",NOW(),A2),"")
Whenever I type into field D2 it populates current date and time in field A2 and down the A column as I write into current D columns. The next step I would like to do in which he was able to figure out so far is how to lock in the date and time after something has been typed into D2. If I make any changes to the D2 field it updates the date and time, which I dont want to happen.

Is there anyway to create a timestamp based of a cell linked to a Listbox? For example if the linked cell is in cell C8, cell D12 would stamp the time.

I am using the following code to add in an entry to the sheet named "Upload Log". I am currently using the "Now" function to input date and time. problem is everytime the sheet changes the formula changes and alters the times. I am trying to create a log of each time this code runs. so I have a record of it. This code seems to work but rather than placing the formula in the cell as I have written here, I just want the code to place the values that formula would place, but not the actual formula. How can I change this code to do that?

I have A column that has values 0 or 1 (product active or not).
I want to add into B column date when change occured (from 1 to 0) but simple NOW or DATE is not working becouse program works so that it erases/resets all values and calculetes tham again wich resets mine date also.
How can i remamber value 0 and if it stays the same after reset that date in corresponding cell in B column stays the same and not resets.
Maybe some form of check is there date in B before chacking status in A?

I have a problem similar to Ozone64's posting of 4/23 that I am trying to generate automatic time/datestamps in a cell whenever a value is entered in an adjacent cell. I am currently using the function =IF(A3"",NOW()) but the problem is when data is entered in subsequent rows the previous timestamp is overridden with the new timestamp. Thus at the conclusion of data entry every row ends up with the same date/timestamp as the final entry.

I've seen a lot of timestamp solutions but none of them fit my needs. Also my VBE skills are not good enough to create this. So here's the problem:
I've got 3 columns E,F en H. H contains a validation list with 3 options OK, NOK and OPEN.
If H is NOK I would like E and F to be blank. If H is OPEN I would like E to contain a start date wich doesn't update. If H is OK I would like F to contain an end date wich doesn't update.

I'm trying to make a directory whenever the macro runs that includes a timestamp. File names cannot include "/" or special characters, so I'm trying to change the format. However, even though NumberFormat changes it, excel still recognizes the date as having mm/dd/yyyy etc. so the directory cannot be made.
Here is a part of the code:
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=NOW()"
Selection.NumberFormat = "yyyymmdd-hhmm"
DateTime = Selection.Value
strFileName = "Data Pull"
MkDir "C:..." & strFileName & DateTime

how I can modify the below code so that it populates the timestamp in the same row in Column E if Column A is populated with data...
Example:
Cell A1 is populated then populate Cell E1 with timestamp
if
Cell A4 is populated then populate Cell E4 with timestamp
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Target.Address = "$A$2" Then
With Sheet1.Range("E2")
.Value = Time
End With
End If
End Sub

How to modify this code so that I select only one column triggers the time stamp update? For e.g. if i make any changes in column A, the date stamp is updated in the corresponding cell in column B. Basically, I am trying to narrow down to only one cell in the row, but it should work for any row in the sheet.
Refer to the below post: [URL] ....
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Row > 1 Then Cells(Target.Row, "B") = Now()
End Sub

I have the below code that works fine. However I want to use a countif function to update Column I instead of manually having to type in the numbers each time they change. I know it would probably be a Worksheet_Calculate Sub but cannot seem to find one that works. The time stamp would be put into column H and the first row of data is row 3.
VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
With Target
If .Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Range("I3:I12"), .Cells) Is Nothing Then
Application.EnableEvents = False

I have a tab with about 10,000 records with IDs and timestamps (date and time). On another tab I have a list of IDs and start and end timestamps. There are duplicate IDs on both tabs. I want a formula for the 10,000 records tab that checks the ID and timestamp for each row against all the IDs and start/end time stamps of the other column and flags the rows where the ID and timestamp fall within the start/end timestamp on the other tab. It seems pretty simple, and it feels like the code should be something like this (but this code doesn't work):
=IF(AND(F2=List!C:C,B2>=List!F:F,B2<=List!G:G),"Y","N")
where F2 is the ID and B2 is the timestamp on the records tab. The "List" tab has the ID in column C and the start/end timestamps in columns F and G respectively.

I've been looking all over for the most basic of VBA codes to insert a timestamp in a single cell (B1) when cell A1 changes due to formula result change. All the answers I've found are for manual updates of A1.
A1 has the simple formula: =SUM(F1:F10000)/3. I would like cell B1 to insert a new timestamp when the results of this formula in A1 change. On a weekl basis, I will paste-value data into the whole F column, which will change the resultes in A1.
If this can't be done, or is too complicated (I don't really write VBA, only copy and paste basic code), is it possible to have a timestamp inserted into B1 based on the paste-value event into the F column?
