I'm not sure if it's possible to do this, but I have three lists of data. One is a complete list (for example, the numbers 1-25). The next list is a subset of the complete list (e.g., 1,3,5,7,9). Attached to these (the subset list) is another list (let's say letters, so A goes with 1, B goes with 3, etc). I want to physically move the paired entries from Lists 2 & 3 so that List 2 matches up with List
I want to store a list of strings in an array with their position so that I can sort them alphabetically and then be able to put them back in their original order again e.g.
John 1 Charlie 2 Paul 3 Andy 4 etc,
So when they are alphabetized (is that a word?) they become
Andy 4 Charlie 2 John 1 Paul 3
My plan was to store them in an array, but I can't think how to do it. In python, I would just make a list of tuples, what is the best way to do this in VBA?
I need to complete what would seem a fairly simple incrementing task but I'm not getting the results that I'm looking for. I don't know much about macros so would prefer not having to use one but I'm willing to try if it's not too complicated.
I'm using Excel 2010 on a PC. For several projects, I need to increment cells that contain text and numbers. The column contains data in a cell (A1), followed by a blank cell (A2), then cell A3 contains new data followed by a blank in A4, etc. What I need to do is 1) copy the exact data in A1 to A2 and then 2) increment the number used in A1/A2 by 1 in A3, copy that into A4, and the pattern repeats down the column.
Here is an example of what I have in column A: Test_01 [blank cell] Test_02 [blank cell] Test_03 [blank cell] etc.
This is what I want as a result. Test_01 Test_01 Test_02 Test_02 Test_03 Test_03 etc.
Do I need to save the data in the column as text, general, or numbers? Is there some function that would make incrementing the data possible as I've outlined above?
I would like to know if its possible to extract just the even/odd pairs from a number.
Exp. I have the number 123 in cell A1, and would like to extract the even/odd pair, which in this case would be 13, the cell A2. I would like to be able to do this without the use of "Isodd" or "iseven" functions.
I am looking for a code which will check and display the Maximum Occurrences of pairs of 2 Characters.
In the attached file I tried to write some code but it seems to be wrong.
For your convinience, I entered the reuslts in a table (hopefully not mistaken). The code should display a MsgBox saying that "The pair 'ab' was found 6 times in A1.
The string, in A1, can be any string in any length.
I am trying to analyse a set of variables in my dataset.
The variables I have are numbers which are organised into a single column.
I want to count the number of times different variable pairings occur within my data.
An example dataset of mine is: 1,2,4,2,1,3,5,3,2,1
As the dataset contains 5 variables (1,2,3,4,5) the potential combinations are: 1,1; 1,2; 1,3; 2,1; etc.. with 25 in total.
I want Excel to move through this column starting with the first two cells and step down 1 cell each time and then tell me the number of times each of the combination occurs.
I have a database with 6 columns in play (there are actually other columns but they are not relevant). I'll call the columns A through F. I would like to be able to match certain counterpart rows together, do a sort placing the counterpart rows adjacent to one another, and then count how many pairs I have. (Some rows will have no counterparts.)
I basically need to devise a formula or script that pairs together two rows that fit the following criteria:
1) The rows are identical in Columns B, C, D, and E. 2) The rows are not identical in Column F (i.e., one half of the pair should have "yes" and the other half should have "no") 3) The rows are as close together as possible according to the date sequence in Column A. For example, Row 1 should pair with Row 6, and Row 5 should pair with Row 7. Row 1 should not pair with Row 7, and Row 5 should not pair with Row 6. **This criterion seems tricky because R5 and R6 would technically fit the requirement for pairing, were it not for the fact that R1 comes earlier in the sequence.**
I have a map with several waypoints and would like to find the distance between any of these two waypoints. Sounds simple, but I have having an issue with the later parts of the excel file. Let me explain further.
There are over 100 waypoints on this map we have. Each waypoint has an, seemingly arbitrary, X-coordinate and Y-Coordinate. However, if you divide the coordinates by [X], they turn into miles. It should go without saying that finding the distance between two waypoints is rather simple mathematically, but I having an issue figuring out how to pull two random waypoints and having the distance automatically calculated.
So far, I just have column A with the waypoint name and with column B and C having the X and Y coordinates respectively. Is there anyway I can create some sort of call function that when two waypoint values are entered it would automatically calculate the distances?
How do I express the following as a formula for range f2:h2:
case 1 if any number is equal to 0 or 5, then 1 if any number is equal to 1 or 6, then 2 if any number is equal to 2 or 7, then 3 if any number is equal to 3 or 8, then 4 if any number is equal to 4 or 9, then 5
I need to pair up 20 people in sequence for a workshop, so I number the people and can rotate people numbered 1-10 with 11-20 easy enough, but when it gets to pairing 1-10 together in pairs and 11-20 in pairs.
Is there a formula I could use in Excel to work out the easiest pairing for me?
I have a string of n pairs and want to check various combination of that string. Example: Pairs 58 78 15 Since I know I have 3 pairs (but it can be 2 or 4), I know the number of combination I want to test, ie 2 power 3 = 8 combinations. How can I program a code creating the various strings, ie 587815, 587851, 588715, 588751, 857815, 857851, 858715, 858751 ?
This is what I have so far (not much):
Public unique_pair 'number of pairs provided by another macro Public mystring 'provided by another macro Sub make_guess()
Dim number_of_combination, i number_of_combination = 0
number_of_combination = 2 ^ unique_pair For k = 1 To number_of_combination
I have a spreadsheet with 14, or maybe 16, or maybe 40 names in column B.
A1 = 1 B1 = JOE CITIZEN A2 = 2 B2 = JANE PERSON ... A17 = 3 B17 = JACK DOE
and so on...
I want to randomly assign these names to pairs using a macro button, and basing it on the number of players (C1)
So if C1 is 12, I'd like the function behind the macro button to come up with 6 * 2 numbers (2 and 11, or 4 and 7,
all completely random, but within the 12 specified in C1) and write these random values in Range D1:E6 (if C1 is 18, then the range to write in would expand to D1:E9).
I don't know enough about writing code to be able to pull this off .
I have created a table that has working hours of staff members over many weeks. Week number as column headings (1 to 52) and staff name as Row headings. E.g a row may be
John Smith, 37, 37, 37, 37, 64 (commas to show seperate cells)
How would I go about using conditional formatting so that the formatting changes according to the sum of the values in each pair of cells?
I need to add the total hours of every two weeks for some staff and change the fill colour of both cells accordingly to highlight which weeks staff have worked too many/few hours.
So (B1+C1) would be a pair, the total would decide which fill colour is used on both B1 and C1, and then (D1+E1) would be the next pair and so on.
I have tried using 'a formula to determine which cells to format' and placing =(B1 + C1) = 74 and making it fill the cells green but this appears to be doing (B1+C1) as the first pair and then (C1+D1) as the second and changing the format for the first cell only.
I've managed to get my macro to work ok - but what I want to do now is to get it to loop through more columns. Currently it looks for email addresses in column AH (which will always be the same) then it looks for a "yes" in columnAB and if there is no "SENT" in column T then it sends an email,after which it adds the word "SENT" to column T. What I want t do is for the macro to then run on columns AC+U, AD+V, AE+W and AF+X. So basically it will loop through one column to the right each time for a total of 5 pairs of columns
So I have a spreadsheet that has a Title in Cell A1, then entries in B1, D1, F1, H1, J1, etc... with empty cells between.
What I would like to do is copy those entries to the right, i.e. B1 into C1, D1 into E1, F1 into H1, but all the way along because in my master sheet there are a lot of columns.
Is there any way to find pairs of numbers from lotto data ,starting from the highest to the lowest for the full 24 pairs? It does not matter if excel formula or Vb code.T
I have one hundred rows of data and within that there are some records which are the same and they will always be in pairs - identifiable by a cell with the same ref common to both records. how to strip out the records that are not part of a pair? I would like remove all of the non pairs and move them to another sheet.
We use a program at work to check items out to individual people but sometimes an item is missed and it takes forever to manually look for who it is. In the attached example, (keep in mind there might be more than 100 people on this list...this is just two people), the first 2 items are a pair (radio and radio case) and the second 2 items are a pair (laptop and laptop case).
Id like a way (condition formatting) to flag a person who has one item from the pair checked out and not the other. (Ive manually highlighted one person who only has one of the paired items...id like this to happen automatically)
EDIT:: If the first person were missing the radio in this example, his name would be highlighted on the line with the matching pair...cell D1 (radio case)
Other information:
Radios will always be RFAMRC*** Radio cases will always be RFAMF****
Laptops will always be RFAMTD*** Laptop cases will always be RFAMTE***
I have 32 pairs of coordinates (X,Y). If I graph them using a scatter chart in Excel, I can see that it looks like they suggest a linear relationship between the points.
Other than printing the chart and trying to draw a "best fit" line manually, is there some sort of way I can get Excel to come up with the "best" linear formula (y=mx+b format)?
I've got 3 pairs of columns and I need to sort through them and align the cells in columns E&F with those in A&B and C&D. The cells I need to match up are the times (columns A, C and E)
I have a problem when using autoshapes. Above a display of columns of data, which are of different widths, I need to display several pairs of boxes, which consist of a descriptor box and a value box. If I use formatting in cells, I am constrained to use the width of the columns below. So I will be using autoshape rectangles. No limit on box widths and I can link each one to a cell to send text to them. So far so good.
However, I would like to contain a group of these box pairs within another autoshape. When I do this, if I fill the outer autoshape with colour, I have the choice of making the colour solid, which means you can't see the inside box pairs at all, or semitransparent, which allows the boxes to loom through a fog of the outer colour. What I would like is for the inner boxes to show properly, and fill only the space between the inner boxes and the rim of the outer autoshape
I'm trying to use DGET to pull coordinate pairs from a list and match them up to a label based on certain criteria. I can't seem to get it to work. I'm also thinking that the way I have it set up, the coordinate pairs might not stay together and that has to be the case. My criteria is multiple cell based too and I don't think DGET can handle that.
For example, In order for a coordinate pair to be labeled "B" the x coordinate must satisfy a condition and the y coordinate must satisfy a different condition. Can I use DGET with the AND function?
I'm trying to use countif or similar to show how many times a given date is between 2 dates (inclusive). Each row of the spreadsheet contains amongst other info, a Start Date and an End Date. If i've got 2 rows like this:
I'd want to lookup 02/01/2009 and have it return 2 (02/01/09 falls between the dates on row 1 and the dates on row 2). To give some context, this is an export from a database containing staff holiday dates, and I'd like to be able to see how many people will be on holiday on any given date, given the start and end date of all holiday occurances throughout the year.
