In cell B5 of sheet1 contains a date which changes everytime when i open excel file. The date is in the M/D/YYYY format.
I am using the following code to use that date in MM/DD/YYYY format.
[Code] .....
If cell B5 of sheet1 is 2/1/2014, but my code is resulting in wrong as 01/02/2014.
In the attached sheet, one macro is developed which is not working properly. My req is to convert date from dd-mon-yyyy to yyyy/mm/dd format. (23-jan-2010--> 2010/01/23)
If incomplete date is there, then hyphen should place the gap i.e.
For date like APR-2014------> Output should be 2014/04/--
For date like 1998 -----> Output should be 1998/--/--
The below macro works only for row number 11, 15 and 16.

Have tried text to columns - have tried editing cell and replacing space with nothing via edit/replace but no joy only way appears to be entering cell and deleting manually - there are thousands to update.
I've been working on a particular spreadsheet and I've just noticed that
double clicking the format painter will only format one cell. It won't
retain the format to be put into the next selected cell which it should when
its double clicked. The same goes for copy and paste. Normally once you've
copied something you can paste it into a number of cells individually, one
after the other, but after the first paste selection, the paste option is no
longer available. I can't see any settings under options to fix this. What has happened, and how do I fix it? (I'm using Excel 2003 SP1 - is there a SP2?)
I have formatted cells to date but when I enter in a date of 020413 (Feb 04, 2013) my reslut shows as 11/20/55. I have a coworker who is having the same problem (but hers displays even a different date) so was wondering if there is a setting in excel that I don't know about.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to have a fixed date entered into column B when data is entered into column D. Here's the formula in column B:
=IF(D3="", IF(B3=";", FixedDate(),B3))
When I enter data into cell D, I get the following result in B:
0-Jan-00
Taking this a step further, even if I do a "control + ;" I still get a value of
0-Jan-00 in the cell but the formula bar shows me "=1/9/2007'. ??
I've gone through all of the options but cannot fix this error. I have two spreadsheets using this formula. The first one worked fine last year but now I have this error in it. I also started to create a new sheet and still have the same error.
I am building a very simple time management sheet and ran into a format problem.
I have two rows with cells formatted for Time 1:30 PM
Whenever I add a time(any time) into any cell, it always changes to 12:00:00 AM
The formula bar show the format as 1/8/1900 12:00:00 AM.
I am trying to move the data from sheet1 column A to sheet2 column A while reformatting the data from its current format (dd/mm/yyyy) to format (mm/dd/yyyy). The data from sheet1 is provided to me by a client and is produced daily through their system which they have told me they cannot change the formatting on the reports. When i try to move data from sheet1 to sheet2 and reformat it only half the data formats into the correct date format. does anyone know how to get the data from sheet1 to format and move to sheet2 properly?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a column in excel which gets populated in the format "2/1/1980" when copied from a different source. I want a macro to run on this column and convert this in the below format. Required format: '02-01-80 (note the ' symbol before 02 which will keep it as text)
Existing ----> Required
2/1/1980 --> '02-01-80
2/1/1970 --> '02-01-70
2/1/1983 --> '02-01-83
I need this macro to run on two columns and replace them with the required format. I can do a find and replace either in the sheet or through hard coding the VBA, but as the date format keeps growing, I would need to do this via code and hence requesting the same.
I have an excel which creates PPT from the excel. but the graph pasted in PPT are not aligned and formatted.
By aligned, i mean re-size the graph and paste in a formatted fashion (currently they are overlapping each other)
My entire PPT created is off alignment and formatting. E.g heading are not properly aligned (they are touching the line below) and so on.
I have been struggling with my Excel 07 Date format. Nearly every time I perform a calculation, enter in a value etc in a spreadsheet my answer is returned as a date. So for example if I enter in a cell: = 5 - 4. I get the answer "1-Jan-1900" instead of 1. I have to manually set the formats to general or number if I want the correct format. The setting seems to be the default one and occurs for all workbooks I open. What can I do to change this.
View 5 Replies View RelatedJust recently My Excel 2010 has decided to not let me right click to format cells, delete or insert rows. I can do these functions from the ribbon, but not via right click. this happens in both existing spreadsheets where I am the author, or even a brand new spreadsheet like in the image below. we have restarted the computer, Uninstall and reinstalled Office and still get same symptoms. I got here thru google but cannot find an answer anywhere.
I am very computer literate and even our IT personnel have looked at this with no answer. as you can see in the image, these options are greyed out.

I have a few tasks which I have been doing manually because I do not know if there is a way to accomplish these tasks automatically via some excel formulas.
My first task requires me to take an address, for example: 1234 CAMBIE STREET, and format it such that it is properly capitalized (only capital letters in the front of words) like this: 1234 Cambie Street
My second task involves taking an address, for example: 1234 1st Avenue W, and rearranging it such that the direction is in front of the street name like so: 1234 W 1st Avenue. What makes this task potentially even more complicated is that not all the addresses I am working with require the rearrangement, so I can't simply have a formula that puts the last group of characters in front of the first group of characters because that may screw up addresses that don't require this formatting.
My third task demands that 2 columns of names are combined into one column, while also simultaneously placing a "&" between the names. For example: Jonathan Parkinson | Sarah Parkinson turns into Jonathan Parkinson & Sarah Parkinson. Now I do understand how to use a simple combining formula (=a1&" & "&b1) but it isn't that simple. The columns are not all filled with names. Some pairs may have no names, whereas others may have only one name. Because of this, the formula I used as an example will result in many instances where all I see is a "&", and other instances where I see the first name, followed by an unnecessary "&".
So far, for the majority of these problems, I've been using a combination of manual data input, and the replace function, but I really do hope there is a faster and better way to go about these tasks.

In the Server_name = "SRVREG1" in red above, i would like it to reference a cell...say A30. How is this done?? so that if im on the worksheet called Title on A30 i type in SRVREG1 and the VBA knows what to do from there.
some Excel columns (see attachment). A1 is set to =C1 and the formula is dragged down, relatively referencing column C. Column B applies a formula to the values in Column A.
If I go into the formula bar for cells in A and push enter, the spreadsheet shows the correct value and I can then push enter in the adjacent Column B cell to solve. But, how can I get these data to display properly automatically?
Dates:
------
November 1, 2008
1 novembre 2008
In the formula bar, these formated dates appear as 11/1/2008.
What I need to do is copy the formated dates and paste them into another column so that they show up as November 1, 2008 or 1 novembre 2008 and not as 11/1/2008.
Does anyone know of a non-macro formula or function that can do this? Is there a "paste as is" function?
I have attached my problem workbook in explanation, I need help of pulling values from particular data by referencing selection in drop down list via some formula.
I thought about using the SUMPRODUCT and VLOOKUP but couldnt reference the values in drop down list.
Say in column A, I have the values 1,2,3. If I set cell B1 equal to A1 and drag down, I'd expect this:
A B
1: 2 2
2: 3 3
3: 4 4
But all the columns in B just say 2. What function did I accidentally change?
I am facing a problem with number formats. I have downloaded some data from a database. In the data, there are some date columns in MM/DD/YYYY format. In a seperate workbook, I have copied that data as values.
Now when I am trying to change the formats of the dates to d-mmm-yy, they don't change. The formats are not not changing to any other format. I even tried changing the formats using VBA, but it did not work.
What I have done is create a macro in Excel and then opened up the VBA editor to make a lot of changes to the initial macro. I am reformatting a whole lot of separate spreadsheets over many workbooks.
Here is the code that is generating the error (Run-Time error '438', Object doesn't support this property or method):
Code:
Range("E2").Select
Selection.Format = "long date"
With Selection
.Font.Size = 11
' .Format = LongDate
.HorizontalAlignment = xlCenter
.VerticalAlignment = xlCenter
End With
As you can see, I first tried the ".Format = LongDate" and did put LongDate in "" which did not work, then I tried the "Selection.Format = ..." after the "Range" statement, and that did not work either. So you will actually know, I am trying to set the format for the cell "E2" to a Long Date format.
I have a problem when i try to format a cell. i download data from a website and it gives me the date and time in the first column, ex. 1/1/2009 5:00:00 pm. when i format the cell to date, the time is erased and the date remains which is what i want, ex. 1/1/2009. however, when i click on that cell or any other in that column, the display above, or "insert function" line still show the contents of the cell with the date and the time, ex. 1/1/2009 5:00:00 pm. is there any way i can change that so the time is erased and only the date remains, ex. 1/1/2009 when i click on the cell?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am pulling reports out of a non-windows based program. This program spits out the data directly into an Excel spreadsheet, with but a click of a button. I imagine that the designers of this program assumed that this would be useful, but it's actually proving to be quite irritating.
The Date format they have chosen for their program is NOT the date format that Excel uses, but it resembles it enough to cause serious problems. The original program tracks dates in a "dd/mm/yy" format, rather then Excel's "mm/dd/yy". To my VAST personal irritation Excel does NOT convert this into Text (which could be
manipulated by snipping it into the correct format) but instead converts it into it's own Date format, leaving me with a useless and incorrect serial number as the only data.
I cannot interact with the exporting process at all, and as the program exports DIRECTLY into Excel I cannot manipulate the data prior to import (which would be one relatively easy way of avoiding this problem). I am left trying to figure out a way to reconstruct an actual date out of this mess. Is there any way to convert a date serial number BACK into text?
A little background, I am trying to match CC deposit batch transactions to daily sales transactions. I have two reports, one from our credit card processor/gateway (Report "B") and one from our software where the daily sales (Report "A") are recorded. I used the INDEX/MATCH formula to pull the information I needed from Report "A" into Report "B". It worked perfectly. My question is, is there anyway that I can show what information has been pulled from Report "A"? Possibly by highlighting what was pulled over? It is a longshot, but it would make my life so much easier if it was possible...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm not sure if this is possible but I am trying to find a function that will organize data that will be in a set 2-dimensional array (ex. 6 x 8) into a single list column. The trick is to omit any blanks that may be in the array so that the final list contains no blanks.
This is for a template; the data will constantly be changing so it's not a one time project where I can just sort the data to omit the blanks.
In the example I am trying to automatically have the 'Initial Group' organized to look like the 'Final List.'

VB : =If(E2+F2=0,"",SQRT((E2-B2)^2+(F2-B3)^2))/1.6093
However, the division part only works in the first cell in the column correctly and then does not work in the rest of the column cells correctly. The difference in the code is that the first cell has no "$" in it and the rest of the cells in the column have the "$" in them.

I'm trying to copy the value of one column to another, column A has date and time in this format: 6/1/2013 6:35:00 AM and I'm trying to get ONLY the dates to another column so that when I do my pivot, I can sort it out by date. I tried =A1 and I can format the column to how I want it but the value of the cell still remains in date&time. Is there any formula I can use? or should I change anything in my pivot table?
