VBA / Excel - Identify Columns With More Than One Value?
Apr 9, 2014
I have a macro-routine that generates a table of all sheet-headers (+/- 100-120 sheets) in a workbook. It's crusial that all headers - row("1:1") - have the same values in respektiv columns -so I have this routine to check that this really is the case, before new prosess. The table is rather huge - so I should som way or another identify the columns with more than one value (f.ex back-ground-color in column-top-cell). In this case I must edit and correct the header, and run my routine once again - until all headers are the same
Table is plased in Sheetc("HeaderCheck")
My routine works, but I dont know how to fix this mark-up stuff.
It's a time sheet that I need to have whatever data is listed in column E to be listed starting in cell C27 but only once even if it's listed several times. In cell D27 I need the sums to match the data to it's left with the values from above in column D. I've used fill colors to help show my intent. I would also like it to keep track of remaining vacation time by recognizing the word 'VAC' from column E and subtract the value from it's left. This value is shown in cell J26 as '46hrs REMAINING'.
I have two columns of B2 and C2 data in the same worksheet and want to identify duplicates in the columns and return a value of true or false in column D. The formula I have been utilizing is:
The following code takes the selected item from a listbox and populates another listbox with the item. The problem is that only the item from column 1 is populated to the other listbox. How can I populate the other listbox with the items from both column 1 and column 2?
Private Sub cmdSelToExc_Click() Dim i As Long With Me.lstProducts ' Copy all selected items, then delete. For i = 0 To .ListCount - 1 If .Selected(i) Then Me.lstExclude.AddItem .List(i) End If Next j Next i For i = .ListCount - 1 To 0 Step -1 If .Selected(i) Then .RemoveItem i End If Next i End With End Sub
I have two spreadsheet in which I am looking for duplicate customer names.
1st - "Customers" 2nd - "Orders"
In column A of my Customers spreadsheet I have the following formula =IF(ISERROR(MATCH(E2,Orders$D2:D1000,0))=FALSE, "Y","N"). This allows me to see if a name in my Customer spreadsheet (column E is a field of names) is also in my Orders spreadsheet (column D is a field of names). My end results is either a Y indicating a duplicate or a N for no duplicates.
What I am looking to do next is to place in column B of my Customers spreadsheet the date that coincides with the duplicating customer name. Sorry to be confusing. If a customers name is found in the Orders spreadsheet I need to know what date has been given to this customer (column L in the Orders spreadsheet contains the date information).
However, on numerous occasions a customers name is found in the Orders spreadsheet more than once meaning there may be more than one date which needs to be placed in column B of my Customers spreadsheet.
What is the syntax that I have to use to identify whether or not an entire column or a row is blank? Specifcally I want some code where I can say if row 1 is null, or blank then delete the entire row or. if column A is blank then delete entire column
I am working on a project, I have three different lists that I want to compare and I want to identify in 3 separate columns which titles are found on which list.
For example:
Title List 1List 2List 3 ACAROLOGIA x ACCIDENT ANALYSIS AND PREVENTION x ACROCEPHALUS x ACS CHEMICAL BIOLOGY x x x ACS CHEMICAL NEUROSCIENCE x x x ACS COMBINATORIAL SCIENCE x x ACS MEDICINAL CHEMISTRY LETTERS x x ACS SYNTHETIC BIOLOGY x x x
So here I have two columns Column 1 with repetitive values of some 10000 records Column 2 with unique values of 100 records I want to compare Column 1 and Column 2, identify the values in Column 1 that match with Column 2 and highlight them. Conditional formatting for duplicate values doesnt work because Column 1 has repetitive values.
I have a spreadsheet with columns and columns of data. What I'd like to do is identify which rows have blank/no data in all specified columns (H, K, O, S, U, W, and Y).
To clarify, I need to identify each row where all of these columns are blank (as opposed to each row where at least 1 column is blank).
I have these kind of matrices (below) and I'd like to identify unique values specific to different groups of columns:
[Code] .........
For instance, in the example above, if we decide that A, B, C are "Group 1" and D, E, F are "Group 2", and that the values in rows 1, 2, 3 are independent (i.e., "x" in "1" is not comparable to "x" in "2", etc): - In condition (row) 1: "x" is a specific value only found in Group 1 - In condition 1: "y" is a specific value only found in Group 2 - In condition 2: "x" is a value found in majority in Group 1 - In condition 3: no specific value can be associated to Group 1 or 2.
What I would like to get is a measure of whether: (1) there are values over-represented in one of the groups, or 100% specific to one group. (2) what are these values (3) if multiple values are a bit tricky, then: what is the value which is the most over-represented in one group compared to the other (the maximum being 100% in one group and 0% in the other)
I have a (phylogenetic) matrix with a species in each row, and morphological character in each column, scored as 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4 for each different species, so something like the following but much bigger:
Character 1 Character 2 Character 3 Species A 1 0 1 Species B 3 2 2 Species C 1 2 0
I want to identify the minimum combination of different columns (i.e. their values, but also which columns) that make a particular row unique.
I need a macro to identify the largest value across columns I2 - AS2. Once found, I need to replace the value with value found minus the value in BQ. The final step would be to highlight the cell that was changed across columns I2 - AS2, then move to the next row and do same until I reach the last row in the worksheet. The number of rows vary each day but the columns do not.
I have written the attached code, which identifies the largest value in the first row, but I don't know how to replace the value found with the new value and then move to the next row until it reaches the final row for the day.
In the attached file, my largest value sits in AC2. That value needs to be replaced with 486.17 (1,175.37 - the value in BQ2 of 689.20). The cell should then be highlighted so I can quickly identified what cells have been changed.
I have a DB2 table imported to Excel which has some junk characters in some of its columns. This is a huge file and I need to identify which are the junk characters exist in this file. Is there a way to find this in excel or by using any other tool?
I use excel 2007 and need a formula to identify cells that have duplicate values within the same cell. For example, some of my city fields have the city twice, like baltimorebaltimore.
I have been given an excel model to review;the workbook has 53 sheets. I would like to know if there is a way to create a flowchart/matrix with the relation of all the sheets. I would like at least to get a list of all the sheets related to each sheet. All what I was able to do is to get all the sheet names in one sheet. (I am using Excel 2003).
I've gotten the desired result in Column B, but this will not work going forward as we add to the table in columns E:G .
I'm looking to search between columns E:F, Identify the date-range where my dates in column A belong, and pull the corresponding rate from column G into column B.
So I have a bunch of not so simple excel sheets in a Excel file. I'm trying to automate the testing of these (right now, I'm doing the testing manually).
To simplify, let's say there are two sheets - both of them have a cell called "Total" at the end, which is nothing much a total of some column. My test is to check if these two totals are the same. We don't know the number of rows before hand (it is coming from a database). The way I'm doing right now, is searching for the cell containing the text "Total" getting it's row and column, and adding 1 to the column, to get the cell that actually has the total value. Do this for both the sheets, and I have both values, and it's easy to compare now.
If someone changes the text from "Total" to "Totals" then this will fail.
Questions:
1. Is there a better way to do this? Say, setting a unique parameter or something on the cell that actually has the total value, and using that unique parameter to search the cell?
2. Or is there a totally different (better) approach to this type of testing?
I am running a text comparison between customer names in 2 systems and although I can identify where they dont match I would like a bit more information as to what the differences may be:
See below sample data - 1 system may have Mr/Ms and middle initials whereas the other simply has the name is it possible to write a formula that will look at the cell and when it does not match identify the extra characters. Or if it totally doesnt match then just state incorrect.
I would like to take the data from worksheet1 and put into worksheet2 but limit the length of a list (the real spread sheet has over 100 rows and i would like them in 4 sets of 25 versus the example I provided). Is there an array or macro that would make this work (keeping the formatting)..
how to set one entire columns text to two different colors based on another columns values. So for example I have column A and B. Column A has two values called Internal and External. Column B is a title table so the entire column is just titles. We'll say it goes for 20 rows if you need a row count. What I am looking to do change the text in Column B to Red for External and Blue for Internal. I tried the conditional formatting and I just can't seem to find the right option.
i am trying to complete a spreadsheet which most of it is done but one column i have i have to average everyother square in each column which i did but when i total those columns at the end i get the dreaded #div/01 which means any value that i dont have in a particular column it will not add is there anyway to fix this. i am attaching a sample of the spreadsheet so you can see exactly what i am trying to do .
I have currently browsed the forums and have came up with a code to compare two columns from two separate excel books and then highlight anything matching with the CompareRange. Here is a few more details about the problem:
- I have two excel sheets. And data like this in each sheet:
(First Sheet) (Second Sheet) -A B N O -7 .7 3 .56 -6 .6 8 .45 -5 .5 9 .55 -4 .4 11 .2 -3 .3 8 .22 -2 .2 9 .55 -1 .1 8 .54
As you can see, given this example nothing should be highlighted once the macro is run since nothing from Column A or B from the first sheet matches directly with Column N & O from the second sheet. The problem is that with the macro (module) I have come up with will highlight "3" from Column A and ".2" from Column B, just because they appear in Column N & Column O respectivally. What I want: I only want a number to be highlighted if both the numbers "7" & ".7" are matched in the same row of Column N & Column O on the other spreadsheet. To be a little more precise, I'll give an example. Say I edited the data to be like this.
(First Sheet) (Second Sheet) A B N O 7 .7 3 .56 8 .45 8 .45 5 .5 9 .55 11 .4 11 .2 3 .3 8 .22 2 .2 9 .55 1 .1 8 .54
With this data, I would want the second row of A & B ("8" & ".45") highlighted, while my error "3" of Column A and ".2" of Column B is not highlighted. Also, I would like it if row 4 of Column A & B ("11" & ".4") is not highlighted at all either, just because in O it is .2 and in B it would be .4 even though the 11's match. Attached is the macro/module I have entered in which is working kind of correctly but producing the mistake. And also, (kind of a lesser problem), both the files with data will have the same header, example would be if Column A & Column N both had "Dogs" as it's title in Row 1 and Column B & O both had "Cats" as it's title in Row 1. Is there anyway the macro can be adjusted so it compares those two columns between the two workbooks without me even having to select or assigning a range?
HTML Code: Sub Find_Matches() Dim Column1 As Range Dim Column2 As Range
I have a sheet which has a pivot with Apr to March of Y1 and Apr to Mar of Y2 and so on till Y 5 . Apr Y1 to Mar Y5 are pivoted as columns , that is I have 60 columns now .
I want to have a pivot which will break Apr Y1 to Mar Y1 as one row , followed by Apr Y2 to Mar Y3 , Apr Y3 to Mar Y4 and so on .
E.g.
Item Sum of Apr Y1 Sum of May Y1.....................................Sum of Feb Y5 Sum of Mar Y5
Soap 2 2 .................................... 2 2
I want it like
Item Sum of Apr Sum of May ........................... Sum of Mar
I have a list of countries in excel and a list of partner countries, the countries all have individual country codes.
Example: country partner country exporter country code importer country code year value Australia..........Belgium........................AUS.........................BEL..1999..1000 Canada............Belgium........................CAN.........................BEL..1999..2000
This for a long list of countries, I have filled in the country codes for the first year manually but the list goes on to 2008 and is a lot of work to do manually, (thousands of cells). is there a way to complete the list of exporter and importer codes linked to the country and partner country column and then complete the whole list?
