I am trying to sort a spreadsheet in descending order of a certain column. I have been able to do so quite easily in the past. However, for some reason, when I am trying to sort it now, it is sorting based only on the first digit of the number in the cell. For example, the order after sorting may end up as 90, 9, 9, 82, 8, 8, 8, 74, etc. I don't know what happened to cause the change, or how to fix it.
View 6 RepliesI have a column of Cells.
Each cell has five, two digit number pairs with spaces between the pairs.
IE: 25 03 48 19 33
How can I get those number sets to sort numerically on the first digit, and still maintain the two digit grouping?
I know you can take a number from one cell and combine it with number from another cell and make it one number. What I need to do is the reverse. Take a two digit number in a cell and separate it into single digits in two cells. If you have the number 50 in a cell, then is there a formula that will take the 5 and put it in cell and take the 0 and put it in the cell beside it?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHow to calculate a check digit in excel. The details to calculate this are as follows:
All variables in the calculation are positive integers.
We take each integer of the pro number and multiply it by a value and sum them to get a total.
An Example: 8 Digit Pro Number: 66988757
Pro Number: 6 6 9 8 8 7 5 7
Position in the Pro Number: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Multiply each digit in the pro number by (10-position) in the number, to achieve a sum.
Using our example pro again:
6*(10-1) + 6*(10-2) + 9*(10-3) + 8*(10-4) + 8*(10-5) + 7*(10-6) + 5*(10-7) + 7*(10-8)
6*9 + 6*8 + 9*7 + 8*6 + 8*5 + 7*4 + 5*3 + 7*2
54+ 48+ 63+48+40+28+15+14 = 310
Take the Sum of the previous calculation and divide it by 11
310/11 = 28
(Actually, it's 28.181818, but since we're working with integers, we truncate everything behind the decimal).
Figure a remainder by multiplying the quotient by 11 and subtracting from the sum.
Remainder = 310 - (28*11) ---> Remainder = 310 - 308 ----> Remainder = 2
Check Digit = 11- Remainder
Check Digit = 11 - 2 ---> Check Digit = 9
Note: if the check digit is 10 or 11, need to subtract 10 from the Check Digit.
I have a column of 6 digit numbers in excel, and I need to remove the last digit from each number, turning it into a 5 digit number. No rounding, just simply remove the last digit. Each number is different. Does anyone know how to quickly and efficiently remove the last digit from each number? I can convert to alphanumeric string if need be...
View 4 Replies View RelatedI need a macro where I can highlight a column and change all of the 2 digit years to a 4 digit year (actually, some of the 2 digit years are only 1 digit, e.g. "9" instead of "09").
I have an if then statement that I can use in the column after it, but I'd rather change the actual numbers in the original column, rather than adding another column (and having to keep the original, too).
The statement I had was:
=if(A1>=50,1900+A1,2000+A1)
I just copy dragged down to get the cell numbers for the rest of the column... but using A1 was just for an example, here, it's not necessarily going to be in that column. It needs to be just whichever cells I select.
It seems like it should be pretty simple, but I don't know how to word it in a macro.
Starting Column Example:
12
13
14
99
11

I have an address (city, state, zip format) in a cell. Some of the zip codes only have a 4-digit zip code which is the way the file was received. I know these zip codes have leading zero. How can I convert these to a five-digit code. Examples are as follows:
Waltham MA 2453
convert to 'Waltham MA 02453'
Boston MA 2210
convert to 'Boston MA 02210'
CEDAR GROVE, NJ 7009-1174
convert to 'CEDAR GROVE, NJ 07009-1174'
TEANECK CITY, NJ 7666
convert to 'TEANECK CITY, NJ 07666'
I have 2 digit years (98, 99, 00, 01) that I need to convert to 4 digit years (1998, 1999, 2000, 2001). There is one year per cell. If it was simply a matter of adding 19 or 20 to the beginning of each, I could do that. But since there's a combination of both 19 and 20 that needs to be added and there all intermingled, I'm not sure how to do it.
Can a rule be written to add 19 to the beginning except if the current cell starts with a 0, then add 20? The highest year is 2008 (no 2010 to deal with).
Example:
98 --> 1998
99 --> 1999
00 --> 2000
01 --> 2001
How do you remove the last 2 digit
A B
12345688 88
12548963 63
14552365 65
So in column B is would show
88
63
65
Say I have a sets of numbers in column A as below:
5496523
65325555789
I know the formula to select the last number:
=RIGHT(A1,1) gives the answer 3
=RIGHT(A2,1) gives the answer 9
To select the last 2 numbers is:
=RIGHT(A1,2) gives the answer 23
=RIGHT(A2,2) gives the answer 89
My query is to select ONLY the 2nd last digit (being 2 in A1 or 8 in A2).
Is there a way to build a 12 digit calculator in excel?
View 9 Replies View RelatedMy question is, a formula was provided to me that add's a comma and a space after a 15 digit sequence of numbers, that formula is:
=IF(MID(C378,LEN(C378)-1,1)="W",C378&" ,",C378)
And what that does is it would change data in a cell that looks like this
01-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-06-W2
To this:
01-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-06-W2 ,
The formula works great, thanks to the help of the posters!
However I just ran into an issue, what if I have a set of data in a cell that looks like this:
01-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2
02-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2
03-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2
And I need a space and a comma at the end of each sequence, so the above would change to this after the formula is applied:
01-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2 ,
02-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2 ,
03-02-034-05-W2 TO 02-03-045-07-W2 ,
Now the data in the cell is wrapped so it lists one set of numbers, then the next set, then the next set as seen above.
I have column a with 1000 ten digit numbers. I need to remove the
digit in the fourth place from the left side in the entire column. I don't know how .
how you can determine if a cel value is a number or a digit
It is actually for a column to determine if it has a heading or not and acordingly y have to count the rows off that "current region" and put some values with a formula next to this column.
Y was testing an expression with this
msg = IIf(target.End(xlUp).Value = "X", "is this a LETTER", "is this a DIGIT")
Well I want to add few numbers in a few number for example I have ten columns containing few cell numbers and i want to add 92 my country code with it. I have tried this by using replace formula but in result it comes in text format from which i cannot use another formula unless text format is removed and for that i have to do it one by on in every single cell. I have attached a sample sheet.
View 4 Replies View RelatedImagine a cell has a value of "008281" at A1
I want to return the first digit of the 6 digits in A1 which will be "0" in A2.
I tried using the formulae in A2 with "=left(A1,1), it returns "8" instead.
I have data in cells A1:Z1. The data is all 1 digit numbers, but sometimes they have asterisks behind the number. For instance in cell A1, I have 4, but in B1 I have 3**. I want to take the first digit of each cell and add it together and the result to be in AA1. The only thing I can think of doing is =SUM(LEFT(A1), LEFT(B1)...) but that's going to take too long (especially as I add columns).

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to figure out how to setup a worksheet to find the most common 2 digit numbers going vertically from the bottom(cold) to the top(hot) it would consist of 90 digits 0 thru 9
it would look like this
4 0 3 9 0 4 3 3 2
9 2 5 6 5 6 9 6 6
8 9 9 3 1 0 2 9 8
1 6 7 5 9 9 8 2 5

7 8 8 1 8 5 7 8 7
5 4 1 8 6 1 1 5 1
6 3 0 0 7 2 4 7 0
each vertical line would be considered weeks 9 thru 1. week 9 would be the first vertical line of digits on the left. it could also contain the most common 2 digits horizontally. Both 2 digit values would be color coded ex. blue equals most common 2 digit horizontally and green equals vertically. I would also like to color code the most common 2 digit value diagonally as long as it is the most common of either the vertical or horizontal 2 digit. Each number is seperate on the worksheet they would not be pairs. im using excell 2003.
The last digit of a number (can be any demonination but always an integer). I know that you can check the last digit of a number with =RIGHT(A1,1) but I would like to check whether the last digit in number is 1,2,3,4,5 and if so change the whole number to a number ending in 5. If the original number ends in 0,9,8,7,6 then I want it to be changed to end in 9. Is this possible and if so is there an excel function that I could use??

e.g. 1037 -> 1039
who can provide me a full formula enabling me to calculate the check digit(MOD 10) of the a given number?
How do I create a formula that will calculate a check digit for a 9-digit number using MOD 10? The weighting is 212121212. The problem I am having is that if the sum of the product is in double digits, they must be treated as individual digits.
Example:
Number To Be Calculated: 0 0 4 4 5 5 5 2 5
Weighting: 2 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 2
Sum: 0+0+8+4+1+0+5+1+0+2+1+0
22/10 = 2 r2
10-2 = 8 (Check Digit)
Is it possible to create such a formula? I need to calculate several hundred and do not want to do this manually!
