Sequential Numbering

Oct 25, 2009

I have a workbook with two worksheets. Worksheet #1 is a form that will be populated with data and saved as a new worksheet, then cleared and used repeatedly as a master form. Worksheet #2 is a log / register of the unique forms completed and saved from the master each time. I need to assign a unique sequential # to each form when it is saved and record this number in a column on Worksheet #2 (the Log). I am using some macros for the copy work but struggling with the auto-numbering of the forms when completed and saved.

Sequential Numbering Macro?

Feb 28, 2014

I have a large sheet (currently some 5,000 rows and growing) where each row is allocated a Unique Reference, however that unique reference is based on two criteria, 'Region' and 'Type'.

There are four 'Regions' and three 'Types' across the whole sheet (see attched sample).

Because of the ever increasing number of entries and the fact that the sheet may be sorted so the unique references won't always appear in sequential order, I am looking to try and find a way for the unique refrence for 'new entires' to the sheet to be generated automatically, based on entires in other columns. The sheet structure is relatively simple, with 'Region' shown in one column and 'Type' in another (again, see attached sample).

The unique references adopt this structure - 1st letter of the region (N, S, E or W for North, South, East or West), followed by 1415, followed by the first 4 characters from the 'Type', (REGI, NATI or COUN for Regional, National or County) followed by a sequential 5 digit number 00001, 00002, 00003 etc.

resulting in for example N1415REGI00001 or W1415COUN00012 and so on.

Because there are thousands of entries, I need an automatic way for the unique reference to be generated, ideally once both the 'Region' and 'Type' fields are populated, so the macro (or whatever method works best) will automatically determine the previous highest number for the relevant series and automatically add the next number for the new entry, based on the above criteria.

I don't know if this is possible with a macro or whether there is an easier formulaic way to achieve this?

How To Add Sequential Numbering Down A Column Until The Next Number 1 And Start Over

Feb 13, 2014

I have a column that is listing steps in multiple processes. I have each step 1 marked with a number 1 and would like to have a macro run that will read the column and when it sees a 1 move down to the next row and insert a 2, 3, 4, etc. until it hits the next 1 and then repeat the process. I am unsure how to build this as I am just starting to learn some VERY basic VB scripting.

Copy / Drag From Sequential Column To Non-Sequential Ones While Retaining Sequence

Jan 29, 2014

I have a form made that needs to copy a value from another sheet. The Form is 10 rows 5 columns and and in format for easy print. On sheet2 I have a column where each row is filled with a name.

I need to put this name into sheet1, so in the the appropriate cell I put =Sheet2!B2 and it gives me the value (name) from the other sheet.

Then I want to copy the form bellow the 1st one so that I have the same form but with the next name, which means I want =Sheet2!B3 to appear when I copy, but since my form is 10 rows when I copy it the formula copies to =Sheet2!B12 instead of B3.

I need to make close to a thousand of this forms ready for printing and I would like to avoid having to manually set the formula for the next cell.

Gaps In A List

May 13, 2006

I'm having a problem with a list that I've created. The list is in cell A1, the base data for the list is in the range B1:B50. The problem is that data in this range is dynamic, i.e. it has formulas and depending on the result of these formulae the cells in the range either have a value or the cell is left blank. The problem this causes is that the list ends up having gaps in it because it uses blank cells as well. And this is despite me specifcally ticking " Ignore Blank " in the Data Validation menu where I'm creating the list.

Ranking With VBA - No Gaps Between Ranks

Feb 7, 2014

I have a problem ranking a large dataset(more than 30000 rows, 16 different columns need to be ranked). My problem is that I dont want the ranks to have gaps when there are ties.

See how it should be in table below.

Ext P$
Rank
Should be
2,128.34
1
1

[Code]...

I do have a working solution with an array formula similar to this, but it slows down my macro (30 minutes instead of 10 seconds) as I need it to calculate 16 times

Code:

=SUM(1/COUNTIF(A$2:A$35000;A$2:A$35000)*(A$2:A$35000>A2))+1

I was thinking of using a for next loop to rank sorted columns but I dont know how to set it up properly.

Drag Formulas With Gaps?

Mar 13, 2014

I'm wanting to do is drag a formula down and it drop to the next cell rather than the same row number I'm on. For example I'm trying to concatenate a list of phrases whilst changing the main word. Here's an example of the excel sheet

Base Terms
Phrase
Result
car
red
van
blue
bus
red
blue

There is meant to be a space after the second red and blue enabling me to make (in order), red car, blue car, car red, car blue

How can I make it so I've done the relevant concatenate formulas for A2 with the B column and simply drag it down and Excel will switch from A2 to A3 and so on when I've dragged out the 4 formulas?

Find Gaps In Sequence

Dec 31, 2008

I have a file that contains addresses in column C. I need to find any gaps in addresses.

Ex:
211 Corbin Dr
213 Corbin Drive
214 Corbin Drive
123 Apple Drive
124 Apple Dr
124 Apple Dr
127 Apple Drive

I want to identify that there is a gap between 211 Corbin and 213 Corbin and 124 and 127 Apple Drive.

Currently the address including house number are in column c. However, I split the house number into a separate column and the street address in yet another column. There are also duplicates which I have identified by using conditional formatting to highlight the duplicates.

Fill In Of Text Gaps

Mar 21, 2007

I have a sheet of over 40000 rows, I attach a sample. Column a is called dam and column b is called damsire. Each dam has only one 1 damsire. Both column a and column b are sorted ascending. Unfortunately there are big gaps in column b. some of these can be filled in as we have the information e.g. b38 and b39 should be Manila..as the row 37 tells you the correct damsire. Similiarly b49 could be filled in as shernazar. I want to create a new column which contains a formula to fill in these blanks. of course some of the blanks cant be filled in as the information is not there e.g. b23 to b28.

Removing Gaps From Data Extraction

Nov 13, 2009

I'm doing some simple data extraction, e.g.
A B
1 bob 3
2 mandy 4
3 charlie 6
4 dave 1
5 steve 5

So I had in c1 to c5 = =if(b1 > 3, a1,"") autofilled, which works fine, but I end up with,

gap
mandy
charlie
gap
steve

how would I get,

mandy
charlie
steve

also is it possible to have an if statement in 1 cell change the value of another cell?

e.g.
in a1
if(b1>5, c1="yes",c1="no"), can't seem to get it to work

Align Shapes No Overlap Or Gaps

Nov 20, 2006

I am trying to get two shapes to butt up to each other. Unfortunately the shapes either leave a small gap or a slight overlay. I have tried using Ctrl + arrow key to move in small increments, but that didn't work. I have also tried adjusting the width of the rows, but the rows jump backwards or forwards to a number instead of staying with the number I entered. I want to create a seamless shape out of many different shapes.

Gaps In Cells When Calculating Formulas

Jan 2, 2008

I have what is probably a simple problem for most, but can't figure out what to do.

In the sample sheet attached, I have times in column E, and an action describing what has happened in column G. What I want to do is calculate the length of time between an opening action and closing one, but don't know how to go about it, as there can be an empty cell(and sometimes more) between each open and close.

Count Gaps Between Values And Highlight Cells?

Jul 17, 2014

The solution can be either in VBA or conditional formatting, if possible.I have product names on column A and weeks as from column B where I have the quantity sold. So, every week I'll have an additional column.

A B C D E ...
Product Week1 Week2 Week3 Week4...

What I need:

If the cell is filled, highlight it in green.

If the gap (empty cells) between weeks is =1, highlight it in yellow

If the gap (empty cells) between weeks is >1 but <2, highlight it in orange

If the gap (empty cells) between weeks is >2, highlight it in red

The attached example better illustrates the needs : Example.xlsx‎

Fill In Gaps - Missing Days In Range

Mar 29, 2012

I get given a csv file on a monthly basis which contains consumption data per day for the specified period. This sounds simple but on occasion (more often than not) the data has missing days. This can cause me problem later on in my analysis.

I can happily total the monthly consumption using the date and month text. What i want to do however is to sort the csv file into daily consumption and highlight the missing days i.e. have a range of the days in the month and allocate the daily data to the correct date. I currently do this manually but know that there must be a better, automated approach... searching for matching dates for example?

In my head i'm thinking the following approach but lack the coding skills to do it.

1. Define the start and end dates. Perhaps count the number of days between the two dates and autofill the start date down the appropriate number of days in column A?

2. Paste the csv file into a different sheet and, starting from the top, cut and paste the csv data to the correct date created in step 1. Do this for each row based on the csv data.

Handling Gaps In Time Series Data

Dec 21, 2006

I have been browsing here off and on, and have found many excellent answers. I use Excel to process data on time series, as an adjunct to consultancy work on statistical analysis of industrial data . Usually the data has irregular gaps, e.g., daily data might have 2-10 day gaps. If I want to take, say, 7-day averages, SKIPPING OVER gaps longer than 2 days(say), is there an easy way to do this (I don't really know VBA,and it is not worth my time to try and write long code for this, which will eventually be done by some professional programmers)!

Find Time Gaps Greater Than "X" Minutes.

Jan 21, 2009

I get sheets, sometimes 10 records, sometimes 1,000 records. And there is a time column. It's formatted as: hh:mm:ssam (09:12:36am). Now what I need to do is find a way to highlight any record that has a large gap between itself and the record before it. This gap amount can be variable, but for the explanation lets say, I need to highlight any record that has a gap of 5 minutes greater than the time before it.

I've tried a formula I found elsewhere:

=F3-F2> 1/24/60*5

But it just returns "#VALUE!".

I'm completely stumped, and since about last week, 1 of my daily responsibilites will be analysing anywhere from 10 - 50 sheets a day.

The guy before me would open the sheet and manually find it by literally looking from record to record. This was this 1 guy's full time job. From what I'm reading around there are ways to have excel do this for me with a simple formula and conditional formatting.

The Excel spread sheet is a coordinate converter, designed to take Degree's minuets seconds and convert it to Decimal Degrees, the formula is set up and work Great, but every time I copy and paste the coordinate to the excel spread sheet, i have to manuelly erase the spaces between the numbers so the formula can work properly. How can i get the cell to automatically delete the space between the numbers to save me time.(I.e 29 35 42.34325 -to-> 293542.34325)
