Selecting From A Changing Column Of Numbers?

Jun 7, 2014

I am creating a spreadsheet to manage Block ID conflicts when adding mods to a Minecraft Server. Example spreadsheet is attached.

Description: Column A contains a list of available numbers (e.g. 1-20 and 31-50). Column B contains a list of numbers a new mod tries to use up by default (i.e. 1-25). A number in Column B that is not in Column A must be changed to the nearest number that is in Column A. In this example, numbers 21-25 in B are not available in A and must be changed to 31-35, respectively. Column C should be the result of changing Column B (i.e. 1-20 and 31-35).

Issue: The main problem is that as a given cell in Column B changes, that number needs to become unavailable in Column A for the next change. For example, when 21 in B returns 31, 31 can no longer be used for the next number in B (22).

I have been able to use VLOOKUP or INDEX/MATCH functions to lookup the numbers to be changed.

Macro With Changing Column Numbers

Jun 14, 2009

Is it possible for excel to monitor Row J for a letter "Y". If a "Y" is put into a cell in row J a macro runs. If the "Y" was in column 6 I need the macro to copy A6 B6 C6 D6 E6 F6 etc to other cells on a different worksheet.If "Y" was in column 7 it will copy A7 B7 C7 etc to the same other cells on a different worksheet.

Vlookup With Changing Column Index Numbers

Sep 25, 2009

I've 2 worksheets, Summary and Sales. I need to get the total sales figure from the "Sales" worksheet onto the Summary worksheet. Sales data are pasted onto the worksheet monthly. Tried using vlookup but problem is, the column containing the total sales figure may vary and I need to update the vlookup formula. Another problem is that sometimes the Total sales (the lookup value) is not in the first column. Tried using the Index and Match combo but cannot get it to work. I've attached a simple mock up to hopefully illustrate my case better. I believe the experts in this forum should find this rather easy!

Changing A Series Of Numbers In An Excel Sheet Column

Apr 29, 2009

I have a series of numbers in one column. Is there some way I can divide all the numbers together by, say 10, without doing it manually?

eg.

12
15
15
25
20

should become

1.2
1.5
1.5
2.5
2.0

Is there a way in Excel to do that?

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.

VBA Selecting Workbook With Changing Dates In Name

Nov 5, 2013

I am working with two files everyday: today's and yesterday's. Each report has the day's date in the name of the file.

So I'll take today's (11-5) and import it into yesterday's (11-4). Then, tomorrow I'll take 11-6 and import into 11-5. The day after, I'll take 11-7 and import into 11-6. So on and so forth. I'm trying to figure out how I can get VBA to accommodate these changes in names. So that it sees the date in the name of today's report, sees that it is today's, then selects yesterday's (or says "Open yesterday's report!"), and imports the information.

I can figure out everything else, just not the naming issue.

I guess I could always stipulate to the person running it that they should only have these two workbooks open and that they should run the macro starting in yesterday's workbook. Just writing VBA code to select the only other workbook so VLOOKUP can be done from it. But I am trying to make it fool proof.

Selecting/changing Multiple Dropdown Boxes At Once

Feb 20, 2008

I'm working with Excel 2002 on Windows XP.

I want to select more than one drop down box at the same time, and copy them as well as rename the cells they refer to.

For example: in A1 there will be a box with LinkedCell set to A1 and ListFillRange set to B1:B5. I now want a similar box in A2, with A2 as LinkedCell. However, when I copy past the box in A1, it still refers to A1 and B1:B5 (the last part is ok). I can easily change A1 to A2 by just changing it in the properties, but the thing is that I also need these boxes in A3:A100. Is there any faster way of changing this?

Also, the ListFillRange might expand in the future. Therefor I would like to know if its possible to select the boxes in A1:A100 and change the ListFillRange to B1:B6 for all at once.

Selecting A Range Of Numbers

Mar 4, 2010

I'm trying to obtain a formula that allows me to select the last 20 numbers in a range of numbers that continue to increase weekly. i.e column a3-a3000 increases by one number every week. I need the formula to sum the lowest 10 numbers of the last 20. If there is 30 numbers from a13-a33 week one. I require the formula to pick up the 10 lowest from the last 20 (a13-a33). Week two the cell increases by on to a34. The formula would then have to pick up the lowest 10 from the last 20 (a14-a44) and so on.

Changing Numbers All By Itself

Jan 23, 2013

I have a simple spreadsheet for keeping track of gas mileage which I have been using for over two years with no problems. I have five columns A through E and right now I'm on row 72, that's where the problem started. When I enter the starting mileage in A and tab to B it changes the mileage number to a date and as my mileage number I type in changes the date also changes as I tab to B. See the sample below.

A B C D E
15357155968.491 28.14745024239
9/12/19420:00 10.44423.36269628244

The part that puzzles me is it does it in row 72, 73, 74, 75, and 76 then it goes back to working normal, and even though it puts the date in A and zeros in B it does the math right. I looked at column A and B for those rows and there isn't any formulas in them.

I Have a formula in column D =(B72-A72)/C72 and column E is just =B72-A72. Other then that the only other formulas I have is in column B row 177 it gives me total miles, in 178 it gives me total gallons, and in 179 it gives me average MPG.

Selecting A Part Of Text From 1 Column And Put This In A New Column

Oct 22, 2013

I need to put a part of a text from a column and place it in a new collumn. At this moment I use 2 columns and an extra sheet to solve this.

I have a collumn with a lot of data like:aaa-bc

bbb
abc-ba-bd
aa-bb
bbb-xx-yy
aa
abc-yy
klmn-zz
klmn-yy-ff

What I need is behind every cell a new cell with only the 1st part like:aaa

bbb
abc
aa
bbb
aa
abc
klmn
klmn

What I do now is use a new column with this formula:

[Code].....

And I made a translation table in which the 1st 4 characters are translated to what I want to see. In a 3d column I use

[Code]....

to get the results I need. Since I need to get results like this very often this method is very time consuming.

Is there a formula available I can use with only 1 new column?

Changing Numbers With Errors: #div/o

Nov 16, 2009

When I run a report, for some reason our system imports certain numbers which have errors, as a consequence when I try and do a pivot table I get a lot of returns showing #div/o!. If you look at the spreadsheet the errors start on line 103 sheet 2 and finish on 2631. Sometime the report can be huge and takes a while to go through these manually to convert to numbers.

Numbers Changing To Decimals

Apr 4, 2008

I have received an excel file from an external source. Every time I change a number in a cell it reverts to a 2 decimal number. eg. I type in 8710 and it converts the value to 87.10. I have looked at the number formats, cleared the numbers format but I keep getting the same result. I have also e-mailed the file to someone else and everything is ok on their computer. Is there a property in the excel program that I need to change?

Changing The Decimal Places Without Rounding The Numbers

Mar 19, 2009

I was trying to decrease the decimal places of the data figures that I'm currently working on my report, however, it keeps rounding-up the decimal numbers. I wish to keep the original numbers and just decrease the decimal places.

For example:
The original figure is = 7260.12903225806
Upon decreasing the decimal figures to just 2, the result became = 7260.13

Is it possible for me to just have this result = 7260.12 instead of 7260.13?

I've tried using the TRUNC formula butit does not work if the 2nd decimal value is 0.

For example:
The original figure is = 227161.905808985
Upon applying the formula, the result became = 227161.9 instead of 227161.90

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 Column By Its

Jul 3, 2008

I wrote a Macro that select info from Worbook "A" to Workbook "B". In that Macro tha columns B:B, E:E and F:F are selected.

The problem is that the layout is not always the same so the correct columns keep shifting positions. The only thing that never changes is the "Column Label" in the first Row.

So, no matter from which column I alway have to copy: "Order Date"; "Status" and "MetofPay".

Is there anyway to tell my macro to look for those columns instead of B:B, E:E and F:F?

Stop Excel From Changing Numbers To Dates In CSV File?

Jun 6, 2005

When opening a .CSV created from a third party software, one of the columns is converted to date format. The numbers are imported in #/# format. and Excel changes most of the numbers to 2-Jan, 3-Jan etc... This would not be that big of an issue if I could simply set it back. Clearing format or changing to text converts it to a 5 digit number.

The only way I have found to get it to work properly thus far is to open a blank sheet and import data and setting the column to text prior to import.

I would like to find a way of opening the CSV file without all the extra steps. Is there a setting that can be turned off?

Excel 2007 :: Changing Huge Numbers Of Hyperlinks (formulas)

Feb 5, 2014

I've got a main workbook (excel 2007) with a main spreadsheet where i group all the information (text and values) about brands and models linked to 10 workbooks (brands) with several spreadsheets (one spreadsheet=one model).

On the main spreadsheet I've got 16 lines for each model which they have the follow formulas, wich are linked to other workbook / spreadsheet (Mar/Gato)

1)

IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(V844;[Mar.xlsx]Gato!$A$3:$CE$78;3;FALSE));"";VLOOKUP(V844;[Mar.xlsx]Gato!$A$3:$CE$78;3;FALSE))

and will return text values


2)

IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(V844;[Mar.xlsx]Gato!$A$3:$CE$78;82;FALSE));"";VLOOKUP(V844;[Mar.xlsx]G!$A$3:$CE$78;82;FALSE))

And will return number values


3)

IF(M844<>"";HLOOKUP($V$3;[Mar.xlsx]Gato!$A$2:$CE$78;2;FALSE);"")

And will return number values. The return value (;2 goes from 2 to 16.

This process repeats to all the 10 workbooks e and 250 spreadsheets

4) Table Array of the model spreadsheet

With regard to formula 1) and 2)

The problem is that the table array (on the model spreadsheet) could have diferent dimensions (becouse the launch year of the model) like this:

A$3:$CE$78 (2009 - Launch year)
A$3:$BR$78 (2010 - Launch year)
A$3:$BE$78 (2011 - Launch year)
A$3:$AR$78 (2012 - Launch year)
A$3:$AE$78 (2013 - Launch year)

And the return column (value) for formula 1) is always ;3;

And the return column (value) for formula 2) are like this:

;82; (2009 - Launch year)
;69; (2010 - Launch year)
;56; (2011 - Launch year)
;43; (2012 - Launch year)
;30; (2013 - Launch year)
;17; (2014 - Launch year)

The difference between above values is 13, it corresponds 12 months and the total column (12+1)

For the formula 3) the table array its the same, the only difference is instead of starting A$3, starts in A$2

5) The update of the formulas 1) 2) 3) for 2014

I'm doing this manually... The formulas are updated like this,for 2013, I've got table array A$3:$AE$78 and the return value (;17, then for 2014 i will have a table array A$3:$AR$78 and the return value will be (;30, and so on

5) Change the network drive

For other reasons I've to change my files to another network drive, something like this:

Q:KPI2014Main File

6) Main Goal

I was thinking using Excel's regular Find and Replace feature to change:

- The network drive designation
- the table array area
- The return value

But I don't know if this process ( Find and Replace) is safe and clean. I'm doing this manually and I've got on the main worbook/sheet 4000 lines with 3 formulas its 12000 operations!I'm on the 350 line....!

The main goal is to update the all formulas (links) to "brand" workbooks and inside "model" spreadsheets automatically with a macro.

Finding And Selecting Last Non-Zero Cell In A Column

May 20, 2014

I putting together a spreadsheet that applies Payments (as they come in) against the oldest open invoice. As payments come in, old invoices are closed out. An aging is done and late fees are applied.

I have made a macro that inputs all of the information of the invoice in a list. However, when a payment comes in, I am trying to write a macro that:

1) in column G - Finds the first non-zero balance
2) Applies the payment amount to that open invoice. If there is additional funds left over after the satisfaction of that invoice, I would like the payment to be applied to the next open invoice until all the funds of the payment have been drained.

I am having so much trouble trying to even just locate the first nonzero balance and select it.
