Selecting Certain Values For A Sum

Jan 11, 2009

i dont use excel that often, and normally only for really stuff, so apologies, but i couldnt find a solution.

I have a spreadsheet of expenditure, with a column for a category of what was purchased, and then the amounts in the next column, arranged chronologically. eg

01/02/08 food 20.68
06/02/08 petrol 44.65
07/02/08 food 117.65

etc, with various oither columns for week nos (for averages), comments and the like.

Now I would like to do some analysis, for example the mean weekly food spend. I think this should involve checking the category column for "food", and if found, adding the adjacent cell (containing the amount spent) to the sum (and then obviously dividing by number of weeks) - but i cant work out how to do this!

Selecting Max Values

Dec 31, 2009

I'm trying to create a formula that searches through a row and selects certain values. I have a list of individuals in rows followed by their 18 scores in columns. What I'm trying to do is only select the best 8 of those scores and add them together. I tried a few things but this is a little over my head.

Selecting Data By Values

Mar 19, 2014

I have a worksheet with about 10,000 rows of data and from this raw data I need to create 60 or so separate spreadsheets for 60 different companies- so around 160 some row actually pertain to a given client. However, it's not fixed and from one month to the next the actual number of rows changes so I can't just use a simple range. There are two possible ways to mark that the data pertains to a new client. But it will be easier to just show a quick example:

1/1/2014
CompanyA

Total
CompanyA

1/1/2014
CompanyB

So anytime it runs into "Total" in column 1 it should know to start another iteration or when the cell in column b does not equal the cell directly above it. Below is a truncated version of what I have so far:

Sub MonthlyStatements()
'
' MonthlyStatements Macro
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+w
'
Dim taxi As String
Range("F32").Select
Workbooks.Add

[Code] ......

Selecting Values In Multiple Colums For A Sum

Mar 5, 2009

I am trying to create a spreadsheet to select different values. I have 5 columns with type A values then 3 cols with type B values, a blk col then 1 cols with type B values and 5 cols with type A values then 1 cols with type B values and 2 cols with type A values a blank 1 col with a B value, 2 cols with A values and 2 cols with B values. [ A A A A A B B B Blank B A A A A A B A A Blank B A A B B ]

I need to select 5 lowest values from this set but a minimum of three A values need to be used. I have used the min, small 2, small 3 for the A set then used an IF statement for the fourth value. The formula returns the correct sum for values up to the fourth value. The problem comes on the fifth value. I am attaching the formula I started with.

=(MIN(F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3))+(SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),2))+(SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),3))+(IF((MIN(K3: M3,U3)<SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),4)),(MIN(K3:M3,U3)),(SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),4))))+(IF(SMALL((K3: M3,U3),2)<SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),5),SMALL((K3:M3,U3),2),(SMALL((F3:J3,R3:T3,V3:W3),5))))

Selecting Top 5 Values From Multiple Ranges

Jan 30, 2008

I have four ranges of data in a worksheet that are sorted in order by the value in the final columns. Based on this value I would like to flag the highest five values from all ranges by adding a value in the adjacent cell. Is there a formula/function that I can use to identify the highest values from a number of data ranges?

Show Values In Excel By Selecting From Dropdown?

I have set of data in excel which is basically a table of workload and I need to be able to select someones name from a dropdown list and all the other names are removed.

I've attached a screen shot of an example, I want to be able to select any name from a dropdown e.g. Select Trevor and then only cells which contain Trevor are shown (i.e. the other names disappear). BUT all the jobs 1-10 and Stage 1-3 have to stay even if Trevor doesn't work on them.

Selecting Rows With Specific Values In A Column

Jan 11, 2005

I'm attempting to write a macro that will select all the rows which contain a value in a specific column. Say for example, all the instances of "test" in column C, I need to select the entire row with that value in the column.

I should also mention that by using an autofilter, only specific row numbers are selected. The source spreadsheet is dynamic and will not always display the same value in the same row, and thus I need something a little more adaptable.

Find Method Without Selecting Found Values

Oct 17, 2007

My worksheet contains several codes that I then have to lookup in a different worksheet in a different workbook to obtain the relevant data associated with that code. At present I do this by activating the appropriate worksheet, Using Find to locate the appropriate field in that worksheet and then using activecell.offset to get the needed data. This is the only time that these worksheets ever need to be activated so I was wondering if there is a way to do this without having to actually activate the sheet. As an exapmle this is what I currently do:

' variables defined earlier in the program, Tempsheet = workbooks(FileNm & ".xls").worksheet("Temp")

Spark = Cells(TRow, 8).Value
' Activate the reference Sheet
Workbooks("Waveguide Properties.xls").Worksheets("Spark Bends").Activate
Cells.Find(What:=Spark).Activate
COM = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2).Value
Edge = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 3).Value
SparkArray(i, 1) = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Value
SparkArray(i, 5) = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 4).Value
SparkArray(i, 6) = Spark
' Reactiave the workbook and worksheet I am working in
TempSheet.Activate

Ignoring Specific Values While Selecting Multiple Cells

Dec 20, 2012

I have to correct a spreadsheet that takes a bunch of values and creates an average.

=average(N15;N29;N43;N57;N71;N85;N99;N113;N127;N141;N155;N169;N183;
N197;N211;N225;N241;N255;N269;N283;N301;N315;N329;N343;N357)*100%

I didn't create this. Anyway, the problem is that most of these cells will be empty unless a whole bunch of other stuff is filled. These N cells take several values, put them together and create a new one. As time goes by they are filled. While they aren't filled, they'll return the DIV/0 error.

So when that formula I pasted there uses all of these values, it also returns a DIV/0 error because it is getting info from cells that have this error.

I managed to correct that with this
=averageif(N15:N357;"<>#DIV/0!")*100%

It works like a charm save for one problem. When I use averageif I'm forced to use an interval. Along this interval other values show up (it is always a value ranging from 0 to 2). So when the formula works its magic the results are slightly skewed because of this other value that I don't want.

So I figure there must be two ways around this. The first one would be using something like averageif that lets me use several handpicked cells instead of an interval. If I try

=averageif(N15;N29;N43;N57;N71;N85;N99;N113;N127;N141;N155;N169;N183;
N197;N211;N225;N241;N255;N269;N283;N301;N315;N329;N343;N357;"<>#DIV/0!")*100%

It doesn't work, it says I have too many values. So if I could the exact same thing as I did with averageif but keeping all of these values it'd be super nice.

The other solution, less nice but equally effective I guess, is using this same interval but having more than one criteria. The first criteria would still be the one telling it to ignore DIV/0 error, the second criteria would be the one to ignore any values equal or lower than 2.

Excel 2010 :: Selecting Corresponding Values From Multiple Columns

Feb 18, 2014

I have a spreadsheet with two date/time columns 'Date1' & 'Date2'. Each date/time column has its own column with corresponding values ('Var1' & 'Var2'). These dates cover the same time period, however values for 'Var2' were collected less frequently than 'Var1'. I want ONLY the values in 'Var1' that correspond to the dates in 'Date2'

I am trying to select values from one column 'Var1' which have correlating date/time in column 'Date1' that match the dates specified in 'Date2'. Basically I need the values from 'Var1' that match the same date/time as 'Var2'

See the attached image to make it clearer..

Selecting All Data In Specific Columns Without Selecting Adjacent Column

Mar 10, 2014

Using VBA, I need to Select A1:C14.

The problem is that A1:C14 contains blank cells, and there is also an adjacent column D that I do not want to copy.

So, UsedRegion and CurrentRegion aren't doing it for me. (It selects Column D too.)

Obviously, this is an example...the real data set is an export and varies in size.

Named List: Data Validation To Restrict The User To Only Selecting Values In A List

Jun 15, 2007

I'm trying to use data validation to restrict the user to only selecting values in a list which I create. Right now, the list is a named range. I'd like to get rid of the range and just use a named list. I create a name using the following as my list.

Insert > Name > Create
Name: Fruit

Refers to:
banana,apple,orange

When I try to use the name Fruit in my data validation, I get the message "The List Source must be a delimited list, or a reference to single row or column." I thought my name "fruit" was a delimited list.

Selecting The Right Row

Mar 6, 2007

i did write code to search for the data..and if the data has more than one record then a button will be appear to find all data that related to entered data... and user will have option to press on the select button to select the wanted recored and delete it or update it....the problem is that the select button show the selected data in the form but its not selecting the right data in the sheet. So when i click on delete button it delete the first row which has the same data that entered by the user.

for example, user wants to see all data the belong to the user "Tim", the forms will show all data related to the use Tim... but i want to delete the selected row not the first row with the name of Tim!

i learnt the code from this link [url]

here is the codes for find. find all, and select

Private Sub cmbFind_Click()

Dim strFind, FirstAddress As String 'what to find
Dim rSearch As Range 'range to search
Set rSearch = Sheet1.Range("a2", Range("a65536").End(xlUp))
strFind = Me.txt_num.Value 'what to look for
Dim f As Integer

Selecting A Column

Jan 28, 2010

I need to select the whole column ABOVE the active cell. Ctrl-Shift-UpArrow is no good because it stops at the first blank cell. And selecting the whole column is no good either because when I subsequently paste into the column, it pastes in all the empty cells of the column, meaning my worksheets expands from a few hundred rows to 1 million!

Shift-Home does what I want on rows. Is there an equivalent for columns?

Selecting Optionbutton Using VBA

Oct 4, 2008

I have two option buttons on each of five spreadsheets in my Excel workbook. Selecting the first option button enables an x to be written to a cell when that cell is clicked with the mouse. Selecting the second option button disables the writing of the x when the cell is clicked with the mouse. I have these working quite well.

My problem is that I want the second option button selected (disable writing of x) when I enter the sheet. I'm pretty certain that I need the code in Sub Worksheet_Activate() but I haven't been able to find the VBA statement to set the second option button on.

Also, unlike having the option buttons on a form, when I select the option button on the spreadsheet in Design mode I can see no property sheet indicating the name, value, etc of the option button.
