Sort Formulae Returning Nothing ("" Empty Text) To Bottom
Mar 26, 2008
I have a sheet with a reference field that I want to sort. Each cell in the reference field has a formula in it, which specifies that the cell remain blank unless there is a value in the cell. The values are either text values or number values. e.g. =IF(ISERROR(S4),"",VLOOKUP(C4,'Rider Data'!A:G,6,FALSE))
When I sort the field in ascending order by the column that contains the formula above (using a macro written for this sort procedure), where the expected value is a text value, all the blank cells are sorted ABOVE the cells with text values in them, rather than below, even though they are blank cells. However,if I sort on a different column which contains time values or numerical values, the sort function works just fine. I have tested the VBA code that produces the erroneous sorting and confirmed that it happens only when sorting on columns that contain text values. I would like to sort text values in ascending order with blank cells BELOW the sorted cells.

When choosing ascending or decending, is it possible to always keep rows with the designated blank cells at the bottom? Trying to prevent the blank cells from popping on the top when i filter by a certain field.

I have a range that is filled with formulae and the the number of rows in the range with data changes as the formulae reevaluate the inputs. So the rows with visible data changes between one row and 200 rows. By looking at the output in the first column of the range, Col M and finding the last row where the formulae returns data, I need a way of selecting across the columns of the range (M1 through to Qi) where i is the number of rows that have data in.

I have a list of football fixtures that I want to pace in date order. The fixtures are however linked to a grid which has the following formula =IF(FIXTURES!C1="","",FIXTURES!C1 )
so that a zero doesn't appear until a result is actually added. Unfortunately when you sort the fixtures into date order the grid still looks at the original square, NOT the moved one appertaining to the fixture.

I have a long range of cells (U3:AX3), all of which are empty save one. Is there a way to search through the range of cells, and return the contents of the one cell that contains text?
I would do this with a series of nested IF statements if there weren't more than 30 of them!

I would like to rows based on multiple column conditions criteria. ie., if the columns N, O, P values are "", then hide the particular row. The logic given in the website here, i tried But, it is not 100% working. It works for a few rows at the start of the database & it works for the rows at the end of the database. In between, for a few rows, even if the column values are "" it does not hide those rows.

I would like a macro which works on the selected cells:
A number of the selected cells contain formulae with an apostrophe in the beginning.
I need the macro to remove the apostrophe and calculate the formula in those cells..

On some of my worksheets, the slider bar on the right has become a small square rather than a long rectangle. This causes this slightest shift downward to jump through large amounts of rows. Excel seems to think there must be data down there I need. How do I get rid of empty cells at the bottom of a worksheet so that this no longer happens?

I'm looking for a simple piece of code I can use to manipulate the data on the attached workbook. Firstly, I need to be able to sort the data by column O ("Balance"). I then need the code to extract all the information for the top 10 and bottom 10 rows and paste the info into a new worksheet. The code will need to account for the fact the number of rows might increase/decrease with this report.

I'm creating an excel sheet that is linked to several others. Basically my salesmen will enter their new prospects into their own sales sheets and that will transfer via a link to my main one. The problem I'm having is mainly with my sort.
When the information is transferred, I need the sheet to auto sort the Company names alphabetically and move any blank cells to the bottom.

I'm using links to pull our sales prospects from our salesmen's individual sheets into one master sheet for reference. Once the prospect information arrives in the sheet, I need it to sort alphabetically by customer name so that we can see which customers have been visited and don't visit the same customer twice.
So far in VB, I've been working on this
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Range("A5:L" & Cells(Rows.Count, "L").End(x1Down).Row).Sort Key1:=Range("B6"), Order1:=xlAscending, Header:= _
xlGuess, OrderCustom:=1, MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _
DataOption1:=xlSortNormal
End Sub
But it's not sorting the way that I need to. All I really need is for the sheet to sort automatically by Company Name and for all of the 0's to go to the bottom. They are 'blank' data that will eventually be imported from the salesmen's individual sheets as they encounter new customers.

I had this problem a few days ago and NVBC suggested Text to Columns, which worked initally but didn't seem to 'save' or stick... also, I'm not sure what is causing the problem to begin with. It was my understanding that Excel couldn't return a truely 'blank' value. If a cell was blank or empty, Excel still 'sees' it as Zero. WHY then, for the Love of Gummi Bears, will Excel not calculate my formula. It's a simple formula!
=A13+B13
I've tried
=SUM(A13+B13)
I've tried
=IF(ISERROR(A13+B13),"",A13+B13)
But if don't TYPE in a 0 or a number, then it just does nothing. 50 + 0 = should be 50 not blank or #VALUE!. 50 + Nothing = should be 50 not blank or #VALUE!
Attached is a small copy of what I'm trying to do. I've double checked that all number cells are formatted to numbers, not text. I tried the Data:Text to Columns trick. I've tried Tools:Options:Show Zeros. I've tried Manual and Automatic Calculation. They shouldn't have to type in 60 cells of Zero to get the simple calculation.

I have been trying to register a macro and modify it. That was supposed to autofilter a table by date between values contained in 2 cells (start date & end date).
I declared variables for that, but for some reason, value returned are Emty (date 00:00:00).
Do you see something wrong in this small code?
Sub Filter()
Dim fDate As Date
Dim lDate As Date
fDate = Range("B1")
lDate = Range("B2")
Range("B3:I3").Select
Selection.AutoFilter
ActiveSheet.Range("$B$3:$I$99").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:= _
">=" & Val(fDate), Operator:=xlAnd, Criteria2:="

Ok, so I have a column of data in 24hr time format over a 24hr period from noon thru midnight and back to noon again. It has been necessary to make some of the cells in the column blank, and I am having difficulty extracting the first and last non-blank entries of the column (basically I want the earliest and latest time in that specific 24hr period). The time data is in order, so for example, some of the first values in the column are 14:30, 21:10, and 22:40, while some of the last values in the column are 02:20, 05:50, and 11:00, therefore the values I require are 14:30 and 11:00.
Any help that anyone can give on this matter would be greatly appreciated, but until then I guess I will keep plodding through the help sites and playing with formula until I spontaneously combust.

Is it possible to make a cell "really" blank/empty based on an If statement? For instance:
=if(a1>10,a1,"")
Has a value_if_false of "". But Excel interprets this a bit differently than a cell that never had anything typed into it.
So if you have a column full of this formula copied down, and hit <control+down arrow>, you will go straight to the bottom and skip over all rows. Whereas if you have a column with values and empty cells alternating and hit <control+down arrow>, you will only skip the empty cells and go to the next value. Excel treats the conditionally empty cells as if they have a value, when it comes to this type of navigation. This holds even if you copy and paste "Values" for the cells over the formulas.
Is there any way to tell Excel to make the cells truly empty?

I use the code below to copy formulas to the bottom of the data in a spreadsheet so I know how to do this with a formula.
I have a need to do the same but with a text string that I define.
No conditions, just normally need to copy the text from the cell 2 of a column down to the last row where data is in any column (Usually being col A).
Code:
Dim Last_Row As Long
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Last_Row = Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Range("S2:S" & Last_Row).Formula = "=b9/a9"
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

Note that the "Fruit" and "Fruit Totals" column letter position will always be different every time I run the macro, so I would like the macro to find these columns by name rather than by column letter.
I'd like a macro that adds the total number of fruits in the "Fruit" column by looking doing 2 things...
1. Add the total number of "Fruits" in the "Fruit" column, find the bottom-most row of data in the "Fruit" column, go down 2 rows, and create the text named "Fruits Total"
2. In the cell directly to the right of "Fruits Total" put the value of the total number of fruits in this cell (which will be in the "Fruit Totals" column)
3. Add the total number of "Apples" in the "Fruit" column, find the bottom-most row of data in the "Fruit" column, go down 2 rows, and create the text named "Apples Total"
4. In the cell directly to the right of "Apples Total" put the value of the total number of apples in this cell (which will also be in the "Fruit Totals" column)
5. Repeat steps 3 & 4 for the other fruits
Best to show you an example ...

I have two (2) different values in the same column one value is text (INV) the other is a time date stamp 05/18/2012 10:48:32. The text i want to return in a seperate column for these two is if it is INV then the result is "PENDING" if it is a date 05/18/2012 etc. then the result would be "PAID" example:
Payment Status
05/08/2012 10:30:12
INV
05/17/2012 08:27:37
INV
and so on...................

I am slowly working my way thru Excel succesfully but have come up with another one I can't find an answer for..... YET
I simply want to subract the value of two cells, however the values of those cells are produced by formulae. Hence I get the #Value! error.
Once again I know there's gotta be a simple solution, I just can't locate it

I need to add a piece of code to a spreadsheet that will turn all formulae within into values. The number of tabs in the spreadsheet is likely to change over time but I want the code to apply to all the tabs - without needing to change it if a tab is added/ deleted.

I'm trying to streamline my spreadsheet a bit. Sometime last year I managed to use the formula found (on the attached file) in cell K4 to assign a numerical value to a lettered grade. However, it's been a year or so since I thought about it and so I've completely forgotten how to edit it to make it more appropriate for this spreadsheet!
Essentially what I'm trying to do is a workaround for what I've already done in columns E and F: I'm trying to show the difference between two grades (letters) as a numerical value. Is there a way to do this, or is the VLOOKUP work around I've used in columns E and F going to be the simplest way?

| item1, item2, item4 |
Elsewhere I have a set of points for these like this:
| item1 | 4 |
| item2 | 2 |
| item3 | 3 |
| item4 | 1 |
(the |'s represent cell borders, if it isn't obvious)
What I want is a formula that can grab the text, then produce a total score. So, for my example, the result would be 7, totalling the scores for item1, item2, and item4.
I know that the score lookup is trivial (just a VLOOKUP), but I can't figure out how to do the scan for the data from a single cell. I want the items to remain in a single cell if possible.

Is there any way to 'evaluate' a dotted number (similar to an IPv4
address but not just those) using standard worksheet formulae (ie no
UDFs, VBA, or ATP functions)?
To make it a little more complicated, I need to be able to evaluate
not just IP addresses (although that would be a use) but also a
'number' such as 9.0.2 compared to 8.7.5 so that they can be sorted
and / or compared.
