I have 2 related columns with one to many relationship, on a tab populated with some data. On another tab I'm referencing these 2 columns. When I populate one column I would like a drop down showing all the related data from the 2nd column of the first tab in the 2nd tab. I'm unable to do a named range as my first column has spaces in its name.

I have a column with a general format that looks like this: "057828001 - WACS - Irving".
I need to remove the latter part of the value " - WACS - Irving"
I am doing that by using the replace all and typing in "-*"; that gives me a result of 57828001.
I need a result of 057828001.
How do I retain the leading zero?
I have two or more fields of data, where parts of them are auto populated based on inputs from elsewhere. That part i have working fine, however the problem arises in taking that information and displaying it as a Bill of Materials list on another tab in my excel file. I want to take the information, and only display it in the BOM tab if that piece of information is being used (ie item count field not being 0). I know how to do that part in a rather simple format, however i'd prefer to make it so that when i have the list, and a certain item isn't used then its not included in the BOM, and an empty space is not left behind. I would prefer this to be all be done automatically by a formula if possible instead of just having to resort to sorting the table every time the tool is being used.
Is this even possible in excel, A quick example doc is attached, shows 2 example fields. i'd like to take the information from those 2 fields. and somehow create a single list, with a single heading along the top, with all row containing a 0 "Unit Count" to be omitted entirely from the list, and not have a blank space where the item should be. Keep in mind these fields may be greater than 2, and may not be position one after the other in a strait down line.

Populate my drop down list. I have 2 columns. I want to populate my dropdown list with data from column a that has a specific value in column b. is this possible with out using VBA?
E.g.
Column A / Column B
123 / TEST
126 / TEST
100 / BACON
231 / CHEESE
basically I would like a drop down list that contains the constants from column b. so from the example above it should contain 123 and 126 as options.
I am trying to pull data from more than one drop down but don't the same data to show if already use, example as follow:
First drop down Contains:- Pants
Shirts
Hats
Shoes
Dresses
if I chose Hats it should not show up in the second drop down
second drop down Contains:- Pants
Shirts
Shoes
Dresses
Is this done in data validation or combo Box? if so how?
I have a [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]worksheet[/COLOR][/COLOR] containing a large amount of [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]data[/COLOR][/COLOR] and then another worksheet made up of summary tables. The summary table uses SUM on various fields in the data to get monthly totals.
For example one cell is
=SUM(Data!C7524,Data!C7530,Data!C7536,Data!C7542,Data!C7548,Data!C7556)
Some of the other sums can be made up of 100+ cells.
I would like to be able to keep the sum in [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]the [COLOR=blue !important]cell[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR] but somehow get a breakdown of what that sum is made up of and the description in the adjacent column. So I could [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]click[/COLOR][/COLOR] on the cell and ideally it would create a new worksheet listing all the criteria values and description for that sum, looked up using the references in the sum cell.
So clicking on the one above would give me something like
Description Value
JP7600 100.00
JS0140 300.00
JS0340 100.00
JS0540 50.00
JS0740 75.00
JS2030 100.00
Is what I'm after possible?
I have a dropdown list selection on the form for types of machines. The list of machines, their sizes and related noise level are in a chart on worksheet 2 and I'd like to automate the form so that when the machine is selected, the related noise level auto populates.
The dropdown box has been put in the form using the data validation function.
I would like to determine if the VisibleDrowndown is TRUE in the attached table.
The current macro sets it to FALSE in field 1. However, I want to identify when it is TRUE so I can run this macro.

I am using windows 7, excel 2010 I have a work book, my price list is sheet one and my list of customers and what discounts they get per item in sheet 2.
I choose customer on sheet 1, say i choose a & L sales, well on sheet 2 it shows they get a discount of 45 percent. so I want the 45 percent to show in cell 4r on sheet one, but if the dropdown box shows customer a & V it should show 35 percent because that is what it is on sheet two in cell 3c.
sheet two has 158 customers and each get a difference discount for that product
Is it possible to set the input Range of a dropdown control to be a column from a table?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my IE site there is a field which is a dropdown field with the value 'Not Known' and 'Specified Date'. If I select 'Specified Date' another field named 'Date' becomes visible where I can give a date. I was able to ensure that the value 'Specified Date' is selected using the following statement:
IE.document.GetElementById("startDateBasis").Value = "SpecifiedDate"I also was able to populate the date field with the statement:
IE.document.GetElementById("startDate").Value = SOA
Where SOA is populated with the date string I need to be given as input in IE.
My issue though is that, eventhough the data is provided by the macro the field 'Date' is not visible. So I have no way to know if the input was succesful until I submit the screen. I think I read somewhere that this is because of the way datebasis is populated.
How to get the field 'Date' made visible if datebasis is given as 'Specified Date'?
I don't know how I done it. But I have managed to totally goober up my pivot table settings at a global level.
Start with a data worksheet and do Data | PivotTable and Pivot Chart Report... and just click the Finish button and you get a skeleton with the grey "Drop Column Fields Here", "Drop Data Items Here", "...Row...", "...Page..." and blue highlights around each. I don't know when -- but it must be recently, perhaps even this morning... I did something that turned off this behavior. Now I don't see the grey messages. Now I don't see the blue outline. Normally, if that were the case, one simple clicks on the Show Field List buttons and voilá. But neither on existing pivots in workbooks that have always been well-behaved and new pivots too, I cannot get the Show Field List buttons to work! Neither the default feller on the PT toolbar, nor the same button on the popup menu that you get when right-click the PT. Even more amusing? The button(s) are not disabled. If I click somewhere off the PT, then yes, the buttons disable.
Click back on the PT and the button on the PT toolbar "enables". They just don't do anything.
Troubleshooting failures so far...
=IF(LEN(I3),I3,J3)
at the moment if there is no result it equals 0
I thought this might work..
=IF(ISNA(LEN(I3),I3,J3)),"",LEN(I3),I3,J3))
I have a section of code that takes SO long, but I have to have it. Bascially, I need a pivot field to be set to "All", but there HAS to be a faster way. Here's my
Sub FloorCompareSetter()
Dim pt As PivotTable
Dim pi As PivotItem
Set pt = ActiveSheet.PivotTables("PinPointPivot")
' Speeds up code dramatically
pt.ManualUpdate = True
'Set the floor comparison for managers, coaches, and reps
' Make sure all PivotItems along line are visible
For Each pi In _
pt.PivotFields("Manager").PivotItems
pi.Visible = True
Next pi
pt.ManualUpdate = False
End Sub

With Application
. ScreenUpdating = False
.EnableEvents = False
.Calculation = xlManual
End With
I have a drop down (look up list) labeled Equipment that retrieves information from another sheet in my workbook.
I have a second field labeled Equipment Sub Type where I need a drop down list based on the information retrieved in the Equipment Field.
Each item in the Equipment List Drop Down has a corresponding list in my lookup sheet of my workbook.
I want to print one sheet for each of the values in a page field drop-down. I can do this by supplying the values individually (code below) but would rather determine the list of values dynamically. Can this be done?

Dim Ctrct As String
cix = 3
While (Sheets("Database"). Range("B" + Trim(Str(cix))).Value <> "")
' Get value from database sheet
Ctrct = Sheets("Database").Range("B" + Trim(Str(cix))).Value
' Set CurrentPage value
Sheets("Customer P&L Pivot1"). PivotTables(1).PivotFields("Cust 1A_Name").CurrentPage = Ctrct
' Print formatted sheet
Sheets("Customer P&L").PrintOut
cix = cix + 1
Wend
' Reset Current Page value
Sheets("Customer P&L Pivot1").PivotTables(1).PivotFields("Cust 1A_Name").CurrentPage = "(All)"
MsgBox "Prints sent to printer."
End Sub

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have three search boxes in XL , two are search from and to dates and the other is search be ref.
I can currently search by dates and ref but would like to show all records in the specified dates if the ref field is left blank.
I am using the query writer and referencing back to cells in XL. I don't use the wizard or SQL. I have tried many options and think I should be using a OR statement with a wildcard but can't seem to get the result, does the wildcard just show the blank cells in the actual data?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am looking to adapt a piece of code (originally created by Ger Plante) so that it autofilters multiple columns of a table. I have three data validated lists that need to search 3 different columns in the table and filter accordingly, but also show all if no hits are made (hence why Ger Plante's code) was perfect in most respects. I would ideally like to keep the code as a Worksheet_Change event, but can deal with it being run as a normal Macro via a button if this is necessary.

VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("B1")) Is Nothing Then
Range("A5:C5").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=IIf(Trim(Range("B1").Text) = "", "<>", "=") & Range("B1").Text

Basically I have a form where the list can expand and contract so there will always be varying row lengths.
What I would like to see is a drop down list that shows a) the actual populated field and b) a description of the field when the drop down list is present.
I believe this can be done with a combo box however that would be a lot of work.
I am trying to do a query against my database using MsQuery, but I am having a problem with it...
One of the tables in my database stores information as Binary (Bits) instead of actual text.... When I create the Query in MsQuery, the text is displayed as desired...but when I send it to Excel that column is not displayed..
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get it to send the column to Excel?
See attached for what I mean. The Bits column shows in MSQuery, but not in Excel.

I know when a user clicks a row worksheet change event is call. I can write a function in the worksheet change event to populate values in the dropdown. I went through some articles, and they say it can be done by hiding and unhiding rows.
