Skipping Certain Cells When Dragging Down

Sep 19, 2013

I'm looking to easily drag the sum of certain cells in a different column BUT keeping a specific range, it's hard to explain so i'll show an example...

A1
A2
A3
A4
A5
A6
A7
A8
B1=SUM(A1:A4)
B2=SUM(A4:A7)
B3=SUM(A8:A11)

And so on...

Is there any way I can do this by dragging down the cell formula from B1 and it remembering the range of 4, so I don't have to manually select each range...?

Macro To Combine Cells In A Row To 1 Cell While Skipping Blank Cells

Jul 2, 2014

I need to combined all non blank cells in a given row into 1 cell. But within each row i have 5 phases that the values fall into, which is denoted by the 1st charter 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. for example, in a given row i have 1-a, 1-c, 2-d, and 1-f and these values occurs in non consecutive columns starting from G to ALR. I need a macro that sorts these values in one of the 5 phases. So in another sheet the macro would combined [1-a 1-c 1-f] in Phase 1 and [2-d] in phase 2. and if there are other phases it would put them in the appropriate cell.

See attached workbook : Work Order Summary Sheet.xlsx‎

Macro To Combine Cells In Row To 1 Cell While Skipping Blank Cells

Jul 17, 2014

However, in addition to what the macro already does, it is possible to add another work sheet in the same work book that outputs the values in separate cells? It also has to output the data in order: for example, in the first work sheet the data is inputted at random and has spaces but the macro will have to remove all the blank cells and output them in order based on the first value in the test string, 1, 2, 3, 4, and then 5;

input:

blank 3-x Blank 1-y blank 2-z 1-k

output:

1-k 1-x 2-z 3-y

Dragging Down Formulas With Inconsistent Cells

Jun 11, 2008

How figure out how to drag down a formula that looks like this for the first three cells (C3:C5)?

=(SUMPRODUCT(Polls!D2:D5,Polls!B2:B5))/(SUM(Polls!B2:B5))
=(SUMPRODUCT(Polls!D8:D11,Polls!B8:B11))/(SUM(Polls!B8:B11))
=(SUMPRODUCT(Polls!D14:D17,Polls!B14:B17))/(SUM(Polls!B14:B17))
...etc. 

Is there a way to let Excel know that I'm adding six to each cell, rather than it automatically adding one?

Skipping Blank Cells?

May 8, 2013

creating a formula that will automatically bring the cursor to the next applicable cell. We have template wherein there are extra cells in between those that we fill out. What I wanted to happen is for the cursor to go directly to the next cell that I need to fill up.

Example would be that cell a1 is where we type the name then the next cell will be c1where we will put the addreas. How will I make the cursor jump to c1 when ive filled in a1.

Sum Rows With Skipping Cells

Jan 30, 2014

I'm trying to total up some rows that are put in a repetitive order repeat. I can do this, but the method I'm using is highly inefficient. Is there some slick equation I don't know about?

Example below:

Worker 1 - Double Time - each of these has 200 columns for different job codes
Worker 1 - Over Time
Worker 1 - Regular Time
Worker 2 - Double Time
Worker 2 - Over Time
Worker 2 - Regular Time
Worker 3 - Double Time
Worker 3 - Over Time
Worker 3 - Regular Time
...and so on to 1000 workers

Total Double Time - for each job code
Total Over Time
Total Regular Time

For Loop Skipping Cells

Aug 29, 2007

I was working on a project this morning (I actually got help here but this is more or less unrelated) and ran into a strange problem. It seems the For loop that I was using is skipping cells.

Was trying to figure out the problem using this macro and a list or random garbage.

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim number As Integer
For Each Cell In Range("A2:A500")
number = WorksheetFunction.CountIf(Range("A:A"), Cell.Value)
Cell.Offset(0, 1).Value = number
If number > 1 Then
Cell.EntireRow.Delete
End If
number = 0
Next Cell
End Sub

Maybe someone who actually know something about programming can straighten me out.

Dragging Formulas: Replicate A Formula In Cells

Feb 11, 2009

If I need to replicate a formula in some cells, I usually drag it down or sideways. Is there any easier way to do this? I have large numbers of cells into which to drag the formula. Can I specify which cell range the formula is applicable to (i.e. A1:A10,000 or something) instead of dragging? If so how?

Create New Rows. Skipping Some Cells

Nov 9, 2006

Attached is a sample spreadsheet. Please look at the spreadsheet will reading this post, as it would be rather confusing otherwise.

From this spreadsheet, I need to create two new spreadsheets (I assume one at a time is best). One (S1) will contain data from rows where Column C = "Regular Hours". The other (S2) will contain data from rows where Column C <> "Regular Hours".

The format of S1 (3 columns) is: Payroll # (Column B), code for the type of hour (this code I will need to write into the VBA code), the number of hours (D:G,Q:T,AD:AG), and the constant "N".

The format of S2 (4 columns) is: Payroll # (Column B), code for the type of expense (this code I will need to write into the VBA code), the dollar amount (I:P,V:AC, AI:AP), the project (Column C), and the constant "N".

The trick is each row on the new spreadsheets can only contain one hour/expense (otherwise this would be easy!). So, I need to loop to copy/paste the right cells, and need to skip over blanks, and need to end at column AP, then continue to the next appropriate row. As well, columns H, U, and AH are not used on the new sheets. I have another spreadsheet slightly similar to this with looping, but it is a delete type loop, not a creation one, and it doesn't have to have seperate rows like this does. I know this one is a bit big, but I know someone out there can figure out some looping code that can handle this.

How To Change Reference Cells Specific Amount When Dragging

Aug 14, 2014

So I'm dragging my formula down one cell and as expected the reference cell changes the same amount when I really want the reference to shift Down that column 11 cell so when I take my formula

=IF(ISERROR(LOOKUP(21474836472147483647,'Revenue Book'!L5:L11)),"",(LOOKUP(21474836472147483647,'Revenue Book'!L5:L11)))

when I drag it down one cell the reference should look like this

=IF(ISERROR(LOOKUP(21474836472147483647,'Revenue Book'!L16:L22)),"",(LOOKUP(21474836472147483647,'Revenue Book'!L16:L22)))

Dragging Cells Changes Range In Formula Of Locked Cell?

Feb 19, 2014

I have a workbook with multiple sheets interacting with one another. On one of them the user is prompted to make lists of expenses in multiple columns. The column labels are in row one, and row two has the sums of all the cells below. I have every sheet in the workbook protected, so that only the cells that need to be modified are unlocked. The problem is that the user can drag cells around and change the range of the functions in row two (locked cells).

For example, A2 has the function =sum(A3:A100). But if the user drags the values in A3:A5 to A6:A8, the formula in A2 changes to =sum(A6:A100). Is there anyway that I can allow the user to drag cells (this could be a useful feature), but keep the formulas in the second row fixed?

Fill Down Into Merged Cells Without Skipping Rows?

Oct 21, 2013

My merged cells are not purely aesthetical - each merged cell (covering 6 rows in total, beginning at A3:A8) has colums and rows to the right for other details/formulae relating to that specific merged cell (which contains a customer account name).

The list I'm trying to reference is on a seperate tab - 'Projects' starting in cell A4. This list will have project names added to it, so I need my merged cells to reference the list, and subsequently pulling through all new additions to the list, rather than having to add them on a 2nd time.

Skipping Blank Cells To Speed Up Loop?

May 14, 2014

I have a macro I run on thousands of rows of data which occasionally has incorrect line breaks that need to be brought up to the previous row. The macro works perfectly, however I'm trying to speed it up by skipping rows that do not need processing.

The macro inserts a check in column AQ to see if column A meets certain criteria. If it does not, "False" is entered in AQ, indicating the need for processing. As it runs now, the loop steps through each row of AQ to see if it needs further action.

I am trying to come up with a way for it to automatically just jump to "False" instances, skipping sometimes thousands of rows of blank cells that need no processing.

Average Skipping Cells AND Not Counting Zeros?

Oct 31, 2012

Here are my cells and values

B38 C38 D38 E38 F38 G38 H38 i38 J38 k38 L38 M38 N38 O38
0.00
None
1.95
16
1.73
21
0.00
None
20.10
20
1.73
20
0.00
None

What I would like to do is average only every other cell AND also not count zeros. So =average(B38,D38,F38,J38,L38) generally the idea not averaging H38 & N38 since they are both zeros.

Excel 2007 :: Dragging And Inputting Cells Into Numerical Order

Mar 25, 2014

Excel 2007. At the bottom of a column of data I'm trying to reference the cell $AG4. There are 340 total columns. Each additional column to the right needs to reference the next cell in column AG. So I'm trying to drag and copy horizontally from $AG4 to $AG340. When I try just the single column it just copies $AG4 into everything to the right. When I have to columns ($AG4 and $AG5) and grab both to try to copy horizontally the numbers increasing it just does $AG4, $AG5, $AG4, $AG5, etc.

How To Count Back 4 Weeks Skipping Blank Cells

Feb 7, 2014

I am using excel to analyze stock changes. Yahoo spits out a column with dates and another with closing prices but occasionally inserts a row showing a dividend, something like this:

Date Closing price
12/30/13 120
12/23/13 118
12/16/13 119
12/9/13 117
12/2/13 115
11/25/13 116
11/22/13 dividend 0.23
11/18/25 116
11/11/13 115

In the spreadsheet, column A is date and Column E is closing price, such that the cell in column E where the dividend is listed is blank.

The problem- as I update data each week, the dividend row moves. How can I consistently figure price changes for 4 weeks and 13 weeks without getting messed up by the dividend row? Is there to auto delete the row or make the formula count down 4 cells in the price column, while skipping any cells without data?

Excel 2007 :: Appending Sheet Number Automatically By Dragging Cells In Formula

Jul 12, 2011

appending excel sheet number in a formula. Here is the example.

In an excel book, I have sheets 1 to 50. In each sheet i have a standard format to enter the details. And in one sheet I want to keep some summary with required cells. I made a table by applying formula, for example in cell A1 i kept formula ='9'!$D$9. In this '9' refers sheet9. In the similar way i want to capture the data from all sheets.

A1 cell ='9'!$D$9
A2 cell ='10'!$D$9
A3 cell ='11'!$D$9....etc

Is there any formula to append the Sheet number automatically (like dragging the shell) intead changing sheet number manually. because it is wasting so much time.

Drag Copying Formula Down While Skipping Cells In Adjacent Reference Column?

Feb 2, 2014

I have a spreadsheet with temperature data, all in one column (D), that was recorded every 10 minutes for several months. In two adjacent columns (E & F), I would like to record the daily max and min temperatures. I can manually do this with MAX and MIN formulas in column E and F respectively, MAX(D1:D144). But when I copy this formula to the next row, I get MAX(D2:D145) when what I really want is MAX(D145:D288)....and so on...

When Dragging Formula Down The Formula Skips X Number Of Cells

Jul 22, 2014

Is it possible to write a formula that skips x number of cells and have the formula autoincrement as usual. For an examples lets say I want to skip 3 cells and I have entered in the cells listed:

A1= "1"
A2= "2"
A3= "3"

Then I type in the simple formula in the cell
B1= "=A1"

and then drag down but it skips 3 cells so then

B5= "=A2"

B9= "=A3"

If it didn't skip then
B1= "=A1"
B2= "=A2"
B3= "=A3"

this is just an example as I will be writing more complex formulas and need some thing that I can write into the formula so that it skips.

Something similar to this B1 "=A1(skip3cells)"
