Is there an easier way to sort a column full of numbers by their absolute value without having to create an additional column, use formulas to get the absolute, then sort that column and then delete it.
View 5 Repliesis it possible to write a macro that will convert absolute values into negative based on criteria? Data gets downloaded from in house system which comes out as all absolute values, now i need the macro to covert absolute values to negative if the amount is either "Our Reciepts" or "Our Delivery"
Below is a small sample of data, real data is around 100 rows

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have copied over a row of $, ($) amounts from one worksheet to another. I am trying to make the amounts I copy over past in absolute values. Is there a way to do this? Below is the current code:
'copying over the Amount in Local Currency ST Reclass
Sheets("Recon_ST").Select
Range("S9").Select

I tried to make use of the indirect function but don't think this is the right type of formula to be used.
Essentially in column A..i have linked cell references
e.g = D2767
However, for the whole of the column I'd like to change the refs to =$D$2767, ALL in column A in one go.
I know that if you place the cursor in one cell immediately after the = sign and press F4 it automatically adds $ SIGNS TO THE CELL, which I find useful for V-lookups, but I obviously cannot do it (fill it) all the way down the column i'm using excel v7.
In addition or related how would I write an IF formula to read eg.
= IF (cell ref begins with C, then link and add PRECEDING AND FOLLOWING $ signs to all refs)?
I am trying to calculate the average of the absolute values of a range of visible cells. I use filters to extract the data rows I need from a large spreadsheet. Then I need to calculate statistics on the resulting data, i.e. the visible cells. The line I am using to calculate this is:
VB:
ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Tracker Channel Stats").Cells(newRow, 4).Value = WorksheetFunction.Average(Abs(R.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible)))
However, what I get back is simply the value of the first visible cell in the range, i.e. the average of the absolute value of one number is that number. how to make this work
Have a query that pulls general ledger data. Named Range SALES defined for Sales Account numbers. What is the best way to always have SALES (which pulls as negative number) converted to absolute values?
I have in my mind that it would be some sort of worksheet change event . . . but I don't really grasp the byval/byref TARGET concept by itself, let alone whether it can work on a named range.
I have a simple count formula which is suppose to be absolute.
=COUNT($L5:$V5) and works till I add a column via a macro.
Macro adds a new column at column M then inserts data.
My problem is when I check the formula after macro it changes to
=COUNT($M5:$W5) I thought using the $ sign means Don't change?
how to get either the absolute row or the absolute column of a cell.
Suppose the active cell is H27.
If we use:
ActiveCell.Address
we will get $H$27
How can we get either $H or $27 only assigned to a variable let it be MyVar.
Please keep in mind that converting the $H$27 to a string and then making string manipulations is not accepted, unless of course it's the only way to go.
Also it would be nice if I get answers on how to get the relative address column/row portions only, too. Like H or 27.
Another tip is that using .Column returns a number, not a letter.
I have this massive spreadsheet, with the maximum rows excel will fit on one sheet. In the interest of simplicity, this is what the raw data looks like:
Last First Amount
Jones Jim $1000
Jung Joe $700
White Jon $100
Jones Jim $200
Jones Jan $300
Jung Joe $800
White Jon $200
What I want to do is automatically get excel to group all the same names together. Then I want it to sum all the values for each name, then order by largest total value for each person, then order that by name alphabetically. In other words, the above would look like this after the sort:
Last First Amount
Jung Joe $800
Jung Joe $700
Jones Jim $1000
Jones Jim $200
Jones Jan $300
White Jon $200
White Jon $100
Or, if necessary, there could be sum total rows under each name...although I don't have spare rows, so IDK. I could delete some rows if I had to, but would rather not.
Below is my code which isn't formatting the cells it's suppossed to. It looks like it isn't doing anything. I think the issue might be with the highlighted section of my code, but when I go to "Manage" my rules for conditional formatting, excel references the appropriate cell under the "Applies to" section. I am using relative cell references for for the majority of the rest of the code and this section follows a section that selects the correct cell for this conditional format.
Code:
Selection.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=""ABS()>.005"""
Selection.FormatConditions(Selection.FormatConditions.Count).SetFirstPriority[code].....
I want to move the absolute value of sheet 2 $D$42 to absolute cell sheet $F$15. The !sheet2 $d$42 is not working.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have 9 columns of data in C2-C10 that I can sort numerically by the values in C2. All the numeric values in C2 are also in C1 but C1 has additional numbers not in C2.
I want to sort C2-C10 such that each row in C2-C10 aligns with its respective value in C1.
e.g. If C1 contains 1,2,5,8,34,42,56 and C2 contains only 2,5,34,56 I want the row (of C2-C10) with C2=2 to align with the cell where C1=2. And where C2=34 I want the row (C2-C10) with C2=34 to align with the cell where C1=34.
Is this possible though i'm not sure my explanation of what I want to do is good enough!
Note that my dataset is going to be very large (500,000 rows).
I'm trying to sort values in order by how close they are to a target, whether they are above or below the target.
Example:
Target = 24
17
22
25
16
30
Result:
25
22
30
17

Need code of function that can sort the values in a cell?
For example:
Cell A1 contains 67,87,1,45,109 (note the commas), is there a quick way to change this to 1 45 67 87 10?
This is only a snapshot of the data I'm working with, I have 400 cells each containing between 10 - 50 numbers.
What I'm doing so far is, for each cell:
Text to Columns
Side Ways Sort A-Z
Copy all values to notepad
Copy all values from notepad directly back into the cell
Is there a way in Excel to have a list of names with values automatically re-sort whenever any of the values change.
The default sort I have in mind is ascending by values.
eg.
CITY VALUE
Sydney 100
Boston 200
London 300
Moscow 400
Houston 500
The values change to:
Sydney 5000
Boston 250
London 8000
Moscow 300
Houston 50
I now want Houston 1st, Boston 2nd etc - automatically - without me having to do a sort again by Value.
I am keeping a spreadsheet for an auction
We have 20 people and each person gets a total bid for 48 items.
if person1 = 55,person2 = 100,person3 = 76,person4 = 67,person5 = 49 etc.
The person's names will be in column C while values in D in cell G3 will hold the total bid for the items each week updating.
What I am trying to do is sort the table (names & values) from cell G3.
So if each week G3 total gets bigger then the table sorts to match.
If the overall total bid after 48 weeks (G3) was 52 then the table sorts with 55 on top (because it's closer) 49 next.
The closer the person's bid to the total bid the further up the table the person will be.
I have uploaded an example with before and after sample.BidExample.xlsx
My columns are labeled A B C D etc... If the product I am creating the table for falls into one of those categories I place a 1 in the cell. For instance, ProductA falls into the A and B categories, so column A will get a 1 and column B will get a 1. This is so I can sort all of category A's Products etc...
I am looking for a formula to put in a column that would Say what categories ProductA falls into. ie Since ProductA falls into the A and B catergories but not the C and D catergories, This final column would say something like AB, or A,B or something.
Alternatively, I could make a single column entiltled 'categories' and put something like 'A B' in ProductA's column. In this case I would need a way to sort all A's or sort all B's and not just sort all 'A B'

I am working on a Golf League score sheet, and each week there may be a different amount of players that play. I have a weekly worksheet (attached) that contains the full list of golfers that had played that week and I only want to sort the columns for those golfers who have a score greater than 0 (this would be the ones who played that week). You can see that in week 1 I had more players than in week 2. So in my weekly worksheet I sort these sub grids by Score first. However I ONLY want to sort the rows that have a score greater than 0. Can this be done in VBA or am I stuck doing this manually every week?

I have a small challenge with the following parameter
2 columns of data, the first A contains sets of calendar dates:
A1 27-4-2013
A2 27-4-2013
A3 27-4-2013

Colum B contains wind speed data from a met tower
B1 15.0
B2 5.3
B3 7.9
B4 3.2
B5 32.4
What I need to find are the Highest, Lowest and Average wind speed for a specific date.
I have a NOW -1 function in field C1 I would like to use as the parameter to search for in column A so I get the last full calendar days full data set (10min values), so writing it up it sounds something like this: Look in column A line 1:5000 and if you find any date the same as in C1 then move the content of B to a new separate column D line 1:140 and when all 140 lines are extracted for the specific date then find the Highest, Lowest and Average wind speed between those extracted data.
