I'm looking for a formula that can sum the first character of a list of values together, based on the cagegory.
Example below:
Column A = The category (or name of a person)
Column B = The status, I'm interested in the first character of the status (which is always a number)
Column C = The sum of the status based on the first character of the status for that specific person

[Code] .....
I want to do this without adding another column (i.e. I can get the result adding a column with formula "=value(left(B2,1))", but I don't want to add the extra column)
I'd also prefer to avoid doing this with a macro, as this part of the formula is only a smaller part in a larger formula.
I tried to look for an entry in this forum, but couldn't find one that matches what I need.
I know the COMBIN function, i want to list all combinations from a given set of cells (numbers), each item of the combination - in separate cell. Example:
1 2 3 4 5 a b 6 ....
after combin (x,3) i want to list me this: 123........but each number must be in separate cell (1-one cell, 2 -one cell, 3 -one cell)
When I run this code it does the exact opposite of what I want it do (if not contained in that character list then delete). So basically if it not in the character list then delete, but it if is in the character list it deletes....
I need to create a list of all possible permetations of all 26 alpha characters when put into a 3 character string. EG: AAA, AAB, AAC, through to ZZZ. Is this something that can be done in excel/vba?
I've created a user form that has a list box populated with a fairly standardized format - a product ID or model number followed by a dash ( - ) then followed by a description. Based on the users selection of an item in the listbox, certain rows will be copied over from another tab in the excel file.
An error occurs when a Model Number list box item is selected but not when a product ID is selected.
The difference between the two are AlphaNumeric vs only numeric.
I'm creating an excel spreadsheet that will be sent out to a few users to enter data into. In this spreadsheet, multiple columns contain drop down lists created using the Data Validation tool. The lists are referencing named ranges on a second worksheet.
In these drop down lists are terms that consists of one or two words. What I'm trying to do is when a user goes to select an option from the drop down list, I want the matching one letter code to be entered into the cell instead. For example, Column AK has drop down list with following options:
Good Moderate Poor
When a user selects one of the options, I want one the following respective letter to appear instead......
Some of the lists will have up to 200 lines in them and I'd like to find a way to simply to jump to the first letter entered in the data validation cell.
Does the list need to be alphabetized?
Could it be something that is entered into the data validation box? This spreadsheet has data validation in 35 columns.
I have got a list of numeric abbreviations, for instance 10739011/21/31/41. What it should really display are the numbers 10739011, 10739021, 10739031 and 10739041 (the first six figures stay the same). All the numbers in my list are 8 figures long. I want to change the list from the list seperated by the backward slash to the complete numbers. I have uploaded an example of the list with backward slash between the numbers. Is there a way that Excel can automatically change these numbers to the full numbers?
Because all the numbers are 8 figures long, I thought the first 6 figures of the 1st number can be copied and those 6 figures pasted before the other two figures after the backslash. Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;sorry, pressed OK too quickly. The problem is that there are sometimes 4 numbers in the cell, sometimes 6 and once three. I would like Excel to complete all the numbers in the cell and then move on to the cell underneath it and so on. Also, I would like each number to have it's own cell.
I have a cell which will contain SER01+SER02+SER03
and what i need it to contain is [SER01]+[SER02]+[SER03]
and shocker is i've got this to work for the first instance but not the other two
code as below... be grateful for your help
Sub measure1() Dim list As String, pos As Integer, refl As String, refr As String, newlist As String list = Cells(1472, 16).Value pos = InStr(list, "+") refl = Left(list, pos - 1) refr = Right(list, pos + 1) newlist = "[" & refl & "]" Cells(1472, 17) = newlist End Sub
I'm trying to use data validation to restrict the user to only selecting values in a list which I create. Right now, the list is a named range. I'd like to get rid of the range and just use a named list. I create a name using the following as my list.
Insert > Name > Create Name: Fruit
Refers to: banana,apple,orange
When I try to use the name Fruit in my data validation, I get the message "The List Source must be a delimited list, or a reference to single row or column." I thought my name "fruit" was a delimited list.
The function below should return the value in a cell IF the string in the cell two cells to the left of it is "Nemo" Omitting the part highlighted in blue, my function returns a list of unique values...but when it's included, nothing is returned at all. Perhaps, there is an error in the syntax that I'm overlooking?
Function listUnique(rng As Range) As Variant Dim row As Range Dim elements() As String
I have some data with recurring key values and differing values in the second column, I need to produce a unique list of key values with the second values concatenated together.(See below)
The data can be 10 rows to 5000 and I can have anything from 5 to 150 sheets (Separate data sets), a macro would go a long way to keeping me sane.
Sample data Required Output A | B Z 1| 10 | a 10,a,b,c 2| 10 | b 11,a 3| 10 | c 12,a,b 4| 11 | a 5| 12 | a 6| 12 | b
Sheet2 contains various data, including one column of dates.
What I would like to do is populate Sheet1 with functions that search Sheet2 for date values between two separate date values on Sheet1 (cells F1 and G1). When a match is found on Sheet2, row contents from Sheet2 should populate on Sheet1.
In addition, I would like the functions only to match listings in which the value in column E on Sheet2 is greater than zero.
I have attached a sample workbook that illustrates the structure of the worksheets and the desired results. Looking forward to finding a good solution.
1. Using a formula, I am trying to to obtain a list of unique values (string) (caveat: see #2) from the range E2:E10000 (arbitrarily chose 10000 - the row number is variable)(see #3).
I currently have a formula that seems to work for this purpose but I don't know how to add the condition in #2 (below)
2. To include all unique string values except those starting with the letters "IC"
3. Is there a way to make this formula so that it can only seek values up to the last row, and not go to the 10000th row if not necessary? The E column has no empty cells until after the last row that contains data.
Here is the formula I currently use which serves #1 (above):
[Code] .....
Any way to improve/simplfy this formula for the purpose describbed in #1? How can I add the condition in #2? Can you see a way to include #3? The most important issue here is #2.
Example of desired results:
Column A | Column B AA | AA DD | CC AA | DD CC | DD | DD | IC | IC |
List 1) Contains customer contact information, including an account number. These account numbers may be duplicated in the list.
List 2) Contains account numbers of customers who wish to be removed from the first list.
I need to remove the rows from the customers list (List 2) where the account numbers match, and also copy those to another list for review. So far, I can manually choose and run some code to remove one particular account number only (eg 123):
Set FoundCell = Range("A:A"). Find(What:="123") 'Locate information to remove Do Until FoundCell Is Nothing FoundCell.EntireRow.Copy Sheets(" Deleted List").Select
I have two worksheets, one which contains a list of workstation numbers, and another which contains all of the workstation numbers and additional information on the workstations in the company.
I want to remove all workstation numbers and their information which are not present on the first list from the second list.
In the first w.orksheet each workstation number is in a seperate row, and in column one (seperate cells).
In the second worksheet, each workstation number and its corresponding information is on the same row, and each different workstation is on a seperate row with its information.
Need a formula/code that will determine what the corrected part number should be (insert dashes if they are missing) by comparing to other values in the list.
I'm trying to create a drop down list which returns values based on what has been selected in the previous drop down list in the adjacent cell, e.g. if 'Apples' is selected in the previous cell then you should only be able to select from 'Gala, Granny Smith', or if 'Oranges' is selected you should only be able to select 'Seville, Blood Orange'. Is there a formula which would do this, or can I use a pivot table somehow? I'm totally stumped.
I have an excel spreadsheet that is several thousand entries long. There are cases in which duplicate entries will spring up on that list.
What I want to do is come up with a formula that will find the first duplicate entry in that list and then display that entry in cell on another worksheet. If it was at all possible, I would also like to have the row that the duplicate entry is contained on display as well, in a different cell of course.
I do not want to highlight them using conditional formatting since I have used that to perform other tasks on that sheet and that wouldn't display the entries in a different cell for me, and I would prefer not to use a macro to perform this function it that was at all avoidable.
I need to have a drop down list which displays a different set of values depending upon the value selected by a previous drop down list. ie. (drop down box 1)= x, y, z. (drop down box 2)= either x1, x2, x3, or y1, y2, y3, or z1, z2, z3. I can produce a single drop down box thats not a problem but linking several drop down boxes is beyond me .
I have a list of values on my spreadsheet in a similiar order to this:
17.91 16.59 15.00 14.86 13.56 12.17 11.01 0.0
I use the average function to work out an average for all the values, but since the value of 0.0 is showing i should not include this as an average. the range of values above (8) will always be the same for the month - so i need to find a way of omitting the 0 value without keep changing the formula
I need a way to find a value in a column which has one or more corresponding values in an adjacent column. Then take all of the corresponding values found and count all occurrences of the found values in another column. But I only want to count the entries if an adjacent column is not blank.
Not the easiest thing to describe. Starting to wonder if I need to think in reverse. I hope the attached example makes more sense.
I have been having fun with listboxes all day and have one last(!) problem. I need to get all of the values from a listbox and place them in variables, the trouble is I do not know how many items there will be in the list box, no more than 20 probably.
I have a drop down box in column N, however I would like the options in that drop down box to change depending on what appears in column M.
If column M Says "Lapse" then I want one drop down box to appear in column N, If coumn M says "NTU" then I would like column N to show different drop down options.
