Testing For Blank Cells

Oct 1, 2009

I am trying to write an Excel formula to test if there is data in pairs of cells and if there is I want to copy the entire record to another Excel spreadsheet. Example: if there is data in row 1, column A and data in row 1, Column C or row 1 column D, then copy this record to another spreadsheet; if there is data in row 1 column B and data in column C or column, then copy this record to another spreadsheet. Since there is no data in row 4, column C or column D, this row would not be copied. Row 1, row 2, row 3, and row 7 would be copied to another spreadsheet. The data can be numeric or alpha numeric.

I tried using the ISBLANK statement and can't seem to get this to work properly.

Testing For Blank Cell In VBA

Jan 29, 2008

I working on a loop that would find blank cell. These cells have a formula in excel, but if certain conditions are met, the cell is left blank. What property in VBA checks for blank cell? I don't thin it's the "empty" property?

Testing Range For Cells That Do Not End With Certain Characters

Jul 26, 2012

Basically, looking at the range E6:L19 I need to ensure that any data that is entered into any of these cells ends in either H or W, and if it doesn't flags up a warning message (which I am hoping to link in with the Worksheet_SelectionChange event)

I'm managing it for one cell, but not a whole range.

Testing Contents Of 2 Cells - Ignoring Partial Matches

Jul 6, 2012

I have two columns, some of the cells in these columns contain more than one value separated by a space. Example:

Col A Col B
1.99 1.69
39.95 6 119.94 29.99 6 149.94
135 250 135.00 250.00
11.6 11.60

What I am trying to achieve is to test that the values in column A match those in column B and have a TRUE/FALSE response in column C. At present i'm just using =a=b, however I want the formula to give me a TRUE response for the third and fourth lines in my example, as I want it to ignore the zero after the decimal place, at present it gives me FALSE.

So the results I want to see in col C for the above example are:
FALSE
FALSE
TRUE
TRUE

Ignore Blank Cells And Truly Blank Cells In Named Range?

Jan 13, 2014

Ok so my named range looks like this:

[Code]....

However, I want to ignore the "" cells and the truly blank cells... However, I think all of them will have "" since I have this formula in all of the ones I'm putting in the range:

[Code]....

How do I go about getting these results into a named range so I can use it on validation since validation only seems to ignore truly blank cells and not the "" ones.

Fill In Blank Cells Referencing Non-Blank Cells Above

Apr 17, 2008

I have sporadic cell values in a column. I will be describing the lamen logic I use to fill in these blanks manually. Find the first nonblank cell in the column, then look for the next nonblank cell in the column. I count the number of blank cells in between. If even # of blank cells, then I give the first half of the blanks the value of the first nonblank cell and the second half of the blank cells the value of the next nonblanck. If odd # of blank cells, then I do the same with the exception that the odd cell that falls in the middle will be randomly designated the value of the either first or second nonblank cell.

Count Blank Cells Within A Range Not Including Fully Blank Rows

Jul 15, 2008

I can count the blank cells withiin a range using

=COUNTBLANK(C6:AD2506)

But I dont want it to count the cells if the entire row, within that cell, i.e. C6:AD6, is blank.

It should only count the blank cells within a row if there has been some data entered on that row..provided it has been entered within the specified range.

How To Populate Blank Cells With Sequence Until Non Blank Cell Is Encountered

Mar 22, 2014

I presume this is fairly simple to do, since it's certainly easy enough to do manually by filling in a couple of rows and dragging them down, but I need it to be performed in a macro that I can run before other macros run.

What I need specifically is for the macro to go to G1 and insert the number .01... Then go to G2 and insert .02... Then G3 and insert .03... And repeat this until it finds the first non-blank cell ( row number this occurs at varies), at which point it ends and does nothing to that populated cell or any other cell in the column thereafter (including other blanks farther down).

This all needs to be done in Arial, 10pt, white.

Imported Data Creates Blank Cells That Aren't Really Blank

Feb 21, 2006

Here's what I'm attempting to do: For each column, X,Y, Z, I am attempting
to count nonblanks. However, the data was imported from Access and Oracle,
and Excel treats what appear to be blank cells as nonblanks. I've tested
this theory by highlighting a couple of "blank" cells and deleting them, and
my count changes. So, can I get Excel to put a value into my "blank" cells,
so then I could filter it out, or create a formula that would only count
dates in my columns (which is what I'm after).

This is what I'm looking at:

A B C
1 2/4/2006 2/6/2006 ("blank")
2 ("blank") 12/13/2005 1/7/2006
3 2/20/2006 1/15/2006 ("blank")

In each column if I use a COUNTA I'll get a total of 3, instead of 2 for A,
3 for B and 1 for C.

List - Filling In Each Blank Cells With Value Contained In First Non-blank Cell Above It

Feb 27, 2013

I have a list that looks something like this:

Column B

Row 4 Item 1
Row 5 Item 2
Row 6
Row 7
Row 8 Item 3
Row 9
Row 10 Item 4
Row 11
Row 12
Row 13
Row 14 Item 5

The range of cells in column B containing the items has a name "ColStreams"

I need to go through the list, filling in each blank cells with the value contained in the first non-blank cell above it - so, in this case, rows 6 and 7 would contain "Item 2", row 9 would contain "Item 3", rows 11-13 would contain "Item 4" and so on.

Replace #VALUE! Error For Blank Cells With Blank Cell

Nov 17, 2008

The formula below calculates appropriately, however, if any of the cells (E12,E14, E21, E22, E28, E29) are blank, it returns a #VALUE! error. I would like the cell to remain blank. How can I do this? The formula is listed below.

=(SUM(E34-E6)-(SUM((E12)+E14)-(SUM((E21)+E22)-(SUM(E28)+E29))))

Testing For Duplicate Entry

Oct 18, 2013

I have a form that information is entered in. At the end the user can then save the information in a spreadsheet by pressing a command button. The updating to the spreadsheet works, it is the part where the last entry is tested against the info on the form to prevent a duplicate entry that do not work.

I have tested that the program reads the info from the spreadsheet (see the commented lines).

I can attach the whole spreadsheet, but some of the entries on the form are linked to another spreadsheet that make it a bit cumbersome to attach two files.

VB:
Private Sub cmdUpdate_Click()
Dim lRow As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("TonnageInput")

[Code] .....

Testing If Drive Exists?

Jun 30, 2013

I have a program that relies on a remote drive being open and ready. My current tactic (which works perfectly well) is to have a file in the destination drive and ask the date that file was created. If an error occurs I know the destination drive is not ready.

Code:
On Error Resume Next
temp = FileDateTime(destDrive & "xDeletedStuff" & "testFile.txt")
If Err Then
MsgBox "Destination Drive / Folder Not Ready"
Exit Sub
End If
On Error GoTo 0

Idealy I would rather not use the "testFile" I would prefer to just test to see if the folder existed, "destDrive & "xDeletedStuff"

I have simple data points based on a question that how many people liked product A between 2011 and 2012.

It looks like below

2011 2012
# of Respondents 319 329
% of respondents liking the product 78% 84.5%

The question is: is the increase from 78% to 84.5% statistically significant at either 95% or 99% confidence level. Is it possible to do this basic analysis using Excel?

Testing A String In A Select Case

Sep 21, 2009

Excel 2007 on XP, must be compatable with '03

I have a macro that sorts sets of data that is imported from a LIMS database (SQL). The macro then sorts the data based on a characteristic of the dataset that was pulled in.

I did have the macro working, however now I must add in some AI that groups together certain datasets that don't share the same parameter, as well as discard incomplete datasets, and group together unknown datasets.

In the code following the trouble section, I isolate the required tag, placing it in labelDecoded(2). Now I must test this variable against a couple of cases to see if it is one of the exceptions to the normal rule (which is to Place it in the worksheet named after what is in labelDecoded(2). A switch statement is nessasary as this is still in a prototype/proof of concept phase, and the sorting AI will be expanded in the finished product (As in more cases will be added).

Select Case labelDecoded(2)
Case Mid(labelDecoded(2), 1, 1) = "G"
getSheetName = Gas
Case "DPLS" Or Mid(labelDecoded(2), 1, 2) = "UD"
getSheetName = "Other"
Case Else
getSheetName = labelDecoded(2)
End Select

I have highlighted the sections that is giving me an error in red. The first section "Mid(labelDecoded(2), 1, 1) = "G"" Fails to evaluate to true. The Second section "Mid(labelDecoded(2), 1, 2) = "UD"" Throws a type mismatch error, that causes the macro to execute some error handling code, which by co-incidence, is the same as that case evaluating to true.

When a switch statement is called is there an object or variable that holds the information that is being processed by the switch statement? I recognize that my problem is most likely that I am calling the variable that I have allready tested to be tested again.

Why After Paste Value The Blank Cells Are Like Not Blank Anymore

Aug 13, 2013

the situation is i have a sheet, contains like 500 cells, from A1, to T500, some of the cells are blank, then i figure that from cell A1 to E500 not all the words in capital, so i make it with upper on the2nd sheet, then, i copy + paste value back to the first sheet (A1 to E500)

i get wht i want, but why it's like there's no blank cells anymore on my worksheet.

like you know, if u want to jump from a filled cell to the blank cell, you would hit Ctrl + Down, it jump to the very end of the datas that i paste value before.

so when i hit Ctrl + Down from A1, it jumps to A500, meanwhile the filled cells only 10 cells.

So for example if my number is bigger than 1000, I would like to use comas so that it looks like this 1,000. However, if it is less than 1000 I would like it to look more like this 999.00.

Testing For Values That Vary Within Specific Tolerance?

Apr 22, 2014

I'm trying to identify where a set of values 'agree' within a specified tolerance.

I have a list of scores from different sources, and wish to both average them (easy to do) but also to identify how well they 'agree' by flagging those which have a difference above a specified tolerance. The numbers are all integers, and the tolerance will be an integer.

To give an example, I might have cells with values (2,3,2,2) and these agree within a tolerance of 1. If I had cells of (2,4,2,2) these wouldn't agree. I'd like to flag (by the creation of an 'X' within a separate column) where these cells do not agree.

I've done this previously by using chained If and Or statements (e.g. if A1 = D1 or A1 = D1+1 etc etc) but this is laborious and means I have to change logic every time I add a new sample.

Is there a way of specifying a range of cells (e.g. A1,D1,H1, J1) and seeing if the values of these cells agree to within a stated tolerance? I'm happy to define named cells to specify and argument/attribute.
