I have a workbook containing many pivot tables. When I create a pivot table everything works fine. When I close the workbook, reopen it, and refresh the pivot table, the new data will appear at the bottom of the table instead of being inserted in the proper row in the table. Since the table is no longer in sequential order my VLOOKUP functions don't work properly. What do I need to do to get the already established pivot table to refresh properly?
In the attached spreadsheet my data consists of columns A through K. Essentially I want to line up the data so Column E matches column K. When no data exists in the other section, then a blank line should be inserted. The example I gave has the data formatted the way I want it. As you can see, line 11 is blank. Column L can be ignored as my manual way to handle this was to create an if statement that returned "Error" when something didn't match.
My spreadsheet has 29,000 lines in it. So doing this with my IF statement method would take enormous amounts of time.
I have an excel sheet with about 500 words in 500 cells that I have generated automatically. Separately I have a 'blacklist' of words I have compiled manually that I don't want to appear in the excel list.
How do I ensure that any 'blacklisted' word is deleted from the excel files. Is there any other way than doing it manually?
I need some VBA help in copying ranges from one sheet to another and pasting them on a predifined order. I have one worksheet that contains a large number of ranges with data on alphabetical order. Each entry on this sheet contains several rows of data and is identified by a name (e.g. entry "David" = rows 6:11, "Mark" = rows 13:18 and "Rose" = rows 20:25). I need to select certain ranges from this sheet and copy them on a predefined order on a different sheet (e.g 1) Rose, 2) David 3) Mark. The sequence is neither set by date, alphabetical order, nor by value. I have the order already predifined. I guess I could do this by specifiying the source sheet ranges and the destination ranges as well, but as I have over 2000 entries (each consisting of six rows), I need an efficient way to do it. Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
In the first colum there are sub-columns that i need to reorder into flat format. This would be easy if all sub-columns were from the same size, but this isn't the case.
I think that I need to use a macro that finds the records on the colum, based on each title (A, B, C, D for the illustrative example attached). and then paste them into a new column.
I figure the before/after image would be best to describe what I need. I have various sections of data saved in this one spreadsheet which a program reads from for comparisons.
Right now they are in a list form like this:
Now the end result I want to look like this. Basically take the items in the column, and add the items selected next to it, one in each column not including itself of course.
These are basically the comparables, example this list would be "car manufacturers", and below that in cell A7 I might have another list started that has to do with "motorcycle manufacturers" etc
The end result would give a row of all possible combinations. The app we use pulls from the rows so it needs to have all of the items that are comparable in there and I can't seem to find a way in which to do this.
Hopefully this is understandable when you see what I manually did (unfortunately I need to do this for about 4000 entries, a few hundred groups of different characteristics).
I've a list (Taken from this website; [URL] of 4900 rows with each row have 4 numbers if I want to add or insert one number( from 1 to 50 ) to each row with no duplicate to make it 5 numbers in each row? Is there a formula or Vb code to do this?
To my calculation Numbers (1:50) have to be use 98 times;(50*98=4900) since each numbers in the list used 392 times(392/ 49 = 8)since there is no duplication when adding numbers (1:50) to rows each numbers must pair with evry other number in that list 8 times.at the moment with out adding the 5th number each number pairs with any other number exactly 24 times but adding process finish it should be 32 (24+8).
I made a macro that will name the current sheet whatever text is found in cell B2 on that sheet. This works great unless that sheet name already exists.
If the sheet name already exists, is there a way to rename it as Cell B2 plus the number 2 after the title so it doesn't cause an error?
Example:
"Smith, Bob" is a sheet name, so the macro would make the new sheet name "Smith, Bob 2"
Alternatively, how could I give a pop-up telling about the error and deleting the current sheet instead of renaming it with a "2"?
Eample:
"Sorry, 'Smith, Bob' already exists. Deleting new sheet." as a popup and have it delete the current sheet.
I have a spreadsheet that grows rapidly each day of addresses I service. Duplicates are not welcome. When the spreadsheet was smaller, I would type in an address and if it was a duplicate, Excel would auto fill the cell with the duplicate data. Now that the rows are over 2000, I wanted to see if this primitive method for weeding out duplicates was still working, however when I type the first address I have in cell A1, it does not auto fill in A2001, even though it is a duplicate.
Is there any way to have on-the-spot detection of duplicates sans macro?
I have two sheets, which has data in columns A-J (10) on both sheets and but (sheet2) will have more data records than (Sheet1). I would like to be able to run a vba macro, which can find duplicate rows between the two sheets, by matching up only 8 columns, excluding column's E and G between the two sheets and showing the output duplicates in both sheets in green highlight.
I have attached my sample data for further reference. [URL] .....
The sample file, shows data in sheet1 and sheet2, and the desired output should be sheet1 and sheet2, highlighting (2,3,4,5,6,7,9,19,11,13) rows green in both sheets.
I'm using excel 2007 and windows vista. I have 2 cells, A1 contains (01,) and B1 contains (01, 08). I want the result in cell C1 to be (01, 08) by calling function trim_sort($A1&$B1). The code gives me an error "invalid qualifier" for s.length & more.
I have a worksheet which J3:NJ3 lists the dates for the calendar year. (Example - J3 = 1/1 , K3 = 1/2 , etc. )
A3:C3 are my headers for project information (project name, manager,etc)
In D3 I will be entering employee names. in E3 I will be entering Project start dates, and in H3 will be end dates. These dates are selected via validation lists of the dates listed in J3:NJ3, and it is set to auto fill the adjacent date range with an "X" after the start and end dates have been selected.
Now I also have another worksheet which is a pivot table that will auto update upon any workbook change, and will show each employee and all of the dates in which they are scheduled to work. I am using conditional formatting on this sheet to highlight any dates that the selected employee is double booked on two or more projects.
I want to keep this second worksheet as is, but to avoid having to flip flop back and forth between tabs to find out of someone is double booked, I would like to add a column (I) which will either say "Available" or "Double Booked" . Is there a formula that I can use for this? I thought about Vlookup, but I don't believe I know of a way to write a Vlookup formula that can check a dynamic range of entered dates. I thought perhaps a nested Vlookup/Hlookup, but not quite sure if that will work either.
I have a data entry sheet for attendance that shows the individuals name, date and hours attended. Each individual attendance is addedd to a new row. I need to transpose this data and display it in a report table, with the names in column A and showing hours worked for each day of that week. The formula needs to accomodate the growing data entry sheet as records are added (I'm using a date picker to change the week in the report sheet).
I've tried match, lookup and index and have confused myself thoroughly! Below is a sample of the data entry sheet (on left) and report table (on right)

each month i have to clens a sheet that shows customer name and then the figures per month.
this is pulled from a system that allows for a new entry each time a variation on customer name is used, I.E
Joe Blogs LTD Joe Blogs Limited Joe Blogs ltd.
would all come through as new entries. then i have to manually consolidate the figures from each month. the spreadsheet has over 5000 rows, and maybe only 15% are duplicated. what i want is to be able to select the column (that will be sorted a-z) and highlight cells that have a match for the first 4 or 5 charicters.
once i have identified duplicates i then have to merge the data into one row. is there an easy way to do this? it is monthly, comparing 2008 and 2009, so by december there will be 24 columns + the company name that need to be clensed.
How do I compare 2 columns and then flag where there is duplication? I want to compare Column B against column C and then flag everywhere there is a match. In this case, Column B may have several thousands of entries (inclusive off all entries found in Column C) and I want to have Excel look through the thousands of entries in Column B and then just place an "x" where there was a match to the values found In Column C. For example:
A B C D E F (B+C-D-E) Date Opening Stock Purchase Sales Consumption Closing Stock 17/7/2012 10000 5000 1000 2000 12000 17/7/2012 12000 2000 2000 1000 11000 18/7/2012 11000 0 1000 5000 5000 18/7/2012 5000 10000 3000 0 12000
Note : I want the above result as shown below datewise but no duplication of date but summing up of column C,D and E which is in above.Pls note that this is accounting question and also plz note that Opening stock(column B) from next date onwards must be equal to previous date closing stock(Column F).
Results :
A B C D E F (B+C-D-E) Date Opening Stock Purchase Sales Consumption Closing Stock 17/7/2012 10000 7000 3000 3000 11000 18/7/2012 11000 10000 4000 5000 12000 (B=F)
if I could get the formula in excel ,since this is the sample data as I do have a numerous & huge data like shown above datewise where I need to add C ,D and E but Opening stock(column B) from next date onwards must be equal to previous date closing stock(Column F).
I'm trying to sort out a list of names from a website that publishes names in the following format:
DOE John VAN GOGH Vincent DA VINCI Leonardo NADAL PARERA Rafael JIMENEZ RODRIGUEZ Miguel Angel
What I'd like to do is get the names in the following format
John Doe Vincent Van Gogh Leonardo Da Vinci Rafael Nadal Parera Miguel Angel Jimenez Rodriguez
Basically all the last names - which are all capitalized - would be moved to the end of the text string. Of course any leading spaces should be removed and I guess using the Proper() function, all capitalized words could be capitalized in a standard way.
I found the following function, here: [URL] ...
but what it does is just take the capitalized words and separate them into a separate cell, which is not all of what I want.
I have created a table in Excel 2010 (pls see attached table named post.xlsx).
Then copied the above table into PowerPoint 2010, using "paste link" (I tried to attach the PowerPoint file but the system says "invalid file type" and I cannot attach it).
Question:
I have received income data for another month - the new month is 13 and the corresponding new income is 100. I typed 13 and 100 into the Excel table post.xlsx and thus extended the table by another column.
Then I went back to PowerPoint slide, then right clicked on the table there, then clicked "update link".
Specific Question:
The newly-typed column in Excel table is not get updated in PowerPoint table.
I have enable Refresh on Open for my excel pivot table, but user need to click "Enable Automatic Refresh" , only solution i came across is to change the registry setting. Which i dont have access to edit registry(admin disable the access).
Alternate solution i try to use Access macro to automate the process and use Outputto save it as a excel file A. Then use excel file B to update pivot table from excel file A.(as excel A data is always latest) The problem is i will get "....A file name already exist...do you want to overwrite.." prompt. Which defeat the automate process.
Any other solution to enable the automatic refresh on open the excel workbook?
Or Access can overwrite the exist file or save it as another file name with timestamp ?
In the attachment you will see an example of what I am trying to accomplish. What I am trying to do is find VBA code that is either specific to this worksheet or in a macro. When the sheet is opened I enter a date in B2. I then enter data into A7, B7, and C7. What I would like to happen is when the data is entered into A7, B7, and C7 the sheet goes and finds the same date that I entered in B2 and copies that data from A7, B7, and C7 into F7, G7, and H7.
