Using RAND Function - Assign Number From 1-5 To Each Of Identity
Apr 29, 2014I have 379 sample identities in my Excel spreadsheet in A2:A380. I want to randomly assign a number from 1-5 to each of these.

View 1 RepliesI have a workbook that calculates a RAND function based on input in another cell. Specifically, the formula in E2 selects a random text string from another range depending on data entered in D2. I want to be able to fill this formula down for use multiple times.
The formula works fine on its own, but the problem comes when I, say, move on to D3 to input more data. E3 does its random calculation as it should, but E2 also recalculates; I want E2 to remain static once it calculates the first time.
I'm attaching the workbook in question. The calculation I'm referring to is in the 3rd worksheet.

Each of these people will need to use this macro to send a copy of their spreadsheet to me and my boss, but not necessarily to everyone on their list. I know how to send it to me, and to my boss, but how does Excel know to send it also to the person who's sending it (I know they can go to their outbox to retrieve it, but for neatness sake I'd like them to get a copy in thier inbox). I'm using Outlook 2003 and Excel 2003.

If date in B2 - date in A2 is 1 or less days, put a 1 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 7 or less days but more than 1, put a 2 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 30 or less days but more than 7, put a 3 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 90 or less days but more than 30, put a 4 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 91 days or more, put a 5 in cell C2.
OR
Another, maybe simpler, way of saying it is:
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 1 or less days, put a 1 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 2-7 days, put a 2 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 8-30 days, put a 3 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 31-90 days, put a 4 in cell C2.
If date in B2 - date in A2 is 91 days or more, put a 5 in cell C2.

How do I assign a particular function to buttons contained in a Msg Box?
I have set up a Msg Box on a sheet so when you go to close the sheet the box opens and asks you if you want to open another sheet contained in the same workbook. The buttons are Yes and No. If the User clicks on the Yes button then Sheet 2 will (If I can figure out how)open from the same workbook. If No is chosen then the workbook will close. I have the Msg Box set up and working but I need to find out how to assign the functions to the Yes & No buttons.
I can only export vendor codes from the General Ledger rather than vendor names. If possible, I would like for excel to recognize the vendor code and assign the appropriate name. For example, HCC stands for Human Capital Consulting. The GL includes the vendor code and the voucher number. If I export the vendor code HCC/V0007 from the accounting system to cell A2 in excel, I would like for excel to pick up everything before the / (in this case HCC) and enter Human Capital Consulting in cell B2. I have a vendor list in excel that matches vendor code with vendor. I just need for cell B2 to pick up the vendor code from the list.
I have a list of numbers such as:

For example:
A23 in column A row 23
A53 in column A row 53
is there any method that achieves this?
I currently have a spreadsheet which I use to do an audit of the office stationery supplies.
There 3 columns at the focus of this question:
F - Number of items in stock
H - Stock re-ordering level
I - Order Required
I currently have an IF statement to tell me if I need to re-order any stock, by comparing the Number of items in stock against Stock Re-ordering level.
The statement is =IF(H1>=F1, "Yes","No")
This works fine under most circumstances. However, in some of the H cells, I have the text "Special" which indicates that the stock will only need re-ordering on a special occasion.
Any value I enter in F will cause the I to say "Yes".
Is there any way to make the word "Special" equivalent to 0, so I says "No"?
In column 'o' I have inserted a number for course name in column 'p'. I want to assign a course name to that particular number as follows:

3: P. Q. R.
4: X. Y. Z.
And so on as per course names.
If I enter number 1 in inputbox then I want to enter the course name in column 'b4' respectively.

We have started a new venture from 5th April & I need to create a template for a year and assign week no against the dates. The week1 will start from 5th April & week 52 will end on 31st March.
Also there will be a summary of the Week No(Starting Date & End Date) against each week at the top of the template. I could put the formula for the summary part but I am unable to figure out how to assign week no against the dates as given below. It is very difficult to assign the week no manually for the whole year & also it is vulnerable to error. a formula across B7:B23 which can deliver the desired result?

I'm currrently using column I and col J
in col I are all the units of measurement: KG, PKT, BAG
in ColJ is the formula to return:
KG as 9999999
PKT as 8888888
BAg as 7777777
if(i2=kg, 999999999,"false!")
i was thinking of using if....but triple if formulas would be long isn't it?
PART2 of this would be using:
=IF((SUMPRODUCT(--(db!$A$2:$A$36000=$B$1),--(db!$F$2:$F$36000=C$5),--(db!$G$2:$G$36000=C$6),--(db!$E$2:$E$36000=$A7),--(db!$D$2:$D$36000=$B7),db!$I$2:$I$36000))=9999999,"KG","Invalid")
to check 5 values and if it is 999999999 it'll return KG
8888888 PKT
7777777 BAg
I need to count the number of times a value appears in a row and assign a number that tells which occurence of the text it is.
For example
Name Address
Jim 123 Smith Street
Jane 123 Smith Street
Bob 543 Apple Street
Mary 543 Apple Street
I would like a way to insert a column that puts a 1 next to Jim and a 2 next to Jane, a 1 next to Bob and a 2 next to Mary and so on.
Ultimately, I want to sort the list and delete all the twos, thus deleting the duplicate address entry.
I have found ways to count cells but what I am trying to do is in column F I have a list of meeting topics, and sometimes these repeat in a year. in my drop down menu I have all of them listed however my supervisor wants me to add a count after the meeting number in the 1_1X format where x is the number of times a topic has been used.
The output will be added to my macro here
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim y As String
Dim z As String
Dim b as Integer
If Target.Cells.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Range("MEETINGNUMBER")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub

I have figured out how to assign a letter grade to a number, but am having trouble assigning it the other way, a number to a letter grade. For instance: If a student gets an A, I want the column next to it to indicate that the A represents a 4; a B represents a 3; a C represents a 2; D a 1; and F a 0. This will allow an easy grade point average calculation.
A 4 History
C 2 Math

1. A1:A18 (1-18)
2. B1:B18 (19-36)
3. C1:C17 (37-53)

I also have E1:E20 (20 existing Numbers from 1-70)
I want Excel to select at random a total of 20 numbers
and place them in F1:F20.
I will specify a quantity from each of the 4 groups.
Eg.
In cell A20 I enter 4 to obtain 4 numbers from grp 1,
In cell B20 I enter 6 to obtain 6 numbers from grp 2,
In cell C20 I enter 8 to obtain 8 numbers from grp 3,
In cell D20 I enter 2 to obtain 4 numbers from grp 4,
However there must not be any duplicates between
E1:E20 and F1:F20!
Userform2 is popped up from another userform3.
How can I have userform 3 when clicked fill in a textbox on userform2 and then finally assign it to cell F3 on my worksheet.
VB:
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()End Sub
So I need commandbutton2 (which needs to retain a value of 1` when clicked ) on Userform3 to assign the value of 1 to TextBox44 (Which is using control Source F3 so the value here ends up in F3
VB:
Private Sub TextBox44_Change()
If TextBox44 > 5 Then
MsgBox "Your entry must be part between 1 and 5", vbCritical
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub

View 5 Replies View RelatedExcel 2003: I need code that, when an "x" is entered in a cell in the "Activity" worksheet to assign a temporary unit #, it will look for the next available Temporary Unit # in the "Assign" worksheet. Then mark that unit # as "assigned" (by placing an "X" in the column next to it) and copy it to a cell in the "Activity" sheet.
I will be doing the same thing with assigning different types of PO numbers. I figure if I have the code for the Unit #, I can use the same logic for the other assignments, with some modifications, of course.

I am building a spreadsheet for contractors to use to submit home rehab bids. I am using a Windows 8 and Excel 2013. How to assign a monetary value to a number/quantity.
For example, when the contractor indicates 2 toilets need to be replaced and 1 toilet needs to be repaired, I would like to assign the value of $300 to replace a toilet and $150 to repair. Ultimately, I would like the 2 and the 1 to be automatically totaled to read as $750 in the total line at the bottom of the table.
