VBA Code For Column Data Comparison?
Mar 17, 2014
Excel macros. I'm trying to figure out a script that will look at alphanumeric numbers in column A (A2 --> for example) and compare it to the number directly below it and above it. If it matches either, do nothing, but if it is different, delete the entire row that the different number resides on.
An example of the data would be:
A
12A34A5
12A34A5
67F86F3 - when it encounters these rows I need to delete.
23G45G6
23G45G6
The sheet is a couple thousand lines in length, so I can't deal with it manually or even with sorts, due to the other data in the other columns.

I have 2 Data tables in 2 sheets of the same workbook. I want to compare my column A of table 2 with column A of table 1 and delete any rows of table 2 where (column A of table 2 has a value which is not in the column A of table 1)
In Excel I used the Vlookup function and deleted any rows which had Error in result of the formula. May I know how to execute this in VB

I have to do monthly comparisons of two excel worksheets, one being a vessel timesheet and the other being an excel download from manpower software that we use. The comparison that is being made are days of the month, whilst the unique identifier between the two sheets (To make it easier to understand I will call them sheet1 and sheet2) is an employee ID. Both sheets, alongside the name and employee ID, list all the days of the month that employees have worked. If they have worked, there is a "1" under that day, if they have not the cell is blank.
What I currently do manually is:
1: Search for the employee ID (and/or name) in sheet1 and compare the days with the employee ID in sheet2.
2: Highlight the differences
3: Move onto the next employee ID
All differences are highlighted in sheet2. Differences highlighted are in the days only, where if any days are missing/extra in either sheet, then the particular cell(s) are highlighted in yellow. If an employee is missing from sheet1 but is in sheet2, then all the days are highlighted (in sheet2). If an employee is missing from sheet2 but is in sheet1, then that particular employee is copied to the bottom of sheet2 (after last row).
As this is horribly complicated to explain, I can attach an example if this is sounding rather inexplicable? Is it possible to attach a xls to a thread?

I have a spreadsheet and I'm comparing data from a room booking system and a spot check on the room to see whether it's actually used. I have a column which I want to show whether the information agrees.
column G - I have a group size recorded that should be in a room.
column H - I have "yes" or "no" as to whether there was anyone in the room when it was checked
column I - I have the size of the actual group in the room.
Is it possible to create a formula that will fill in column J with the answer yes or no depending on whether it agrees.
It doesn't matter whether the groups sizes match, it's just a case of yes, someone was booked into the room and there was someone in when it was checked
OR
No, there was a booking supposed to be in the room but there was no one in it when checked
OR
There was no booking but there was someone in the room when checked.

With a set of data in colums by quarter and department names in by row I need to answer build a formula that answers simple questions like "what department had the fewest sick days per quarter?" and which department had the most sick days per quarter?"

I have a database with 65536 rows and A-BZ columns
What I am wanting to do is, on another worksheet be able to select identifying data from one or more columns from the database but have it display the entire row.
For example
WCP28 SX
WCP28 TX
WCT36 SX
WCT36 TX
In this example I would like to, on another worksheet, be able to create a drop down where I could select WCP28 and it would show me both the TX and SX row. Or I would like to be able to select WCP28 SX and WCT36 SX and see the rows next to each other. If it were for me I would just use the auto filter and manually compare but this is for somebody even less inclined than I am.

I would like to insert a function in spreadsheet A that looks up data in
spreadsheet B based on _two_ comparison values.
The two comparison values in spreadsheet A would always be in the same row
and the corresponding match in spreadsheet B would also have to be in the
same row.
For instance, if the comparison values in cells A2 and B2 of spreasheet A
match with the comparison values in cells A30:B30 of spreadsheet B, then
show the value that is in column C30 of spreasheet B.

I am trying to figure out a way in excel to graph some data I have in a new, sophisticated type of chart. My data is new square foot sales divided by new square feet (for a retail store). It is a dollar amount. I also have this data as a percentage change year over year. If I want to compare two stores with different data -- what would be the best way to present it on a chart. Is there a way to show this on a 3-D plane so that both companies have the data in the same chart up against each other?

I have some data stored in a database and when it is extracted into excel each entry's data is presented in both horizontal and vertical formats. e.g.
Entry1 value1 value2 value3
value4
value5
value6
Entry2 value1 value2 value3
value4
value5
value6
I have a macro that will transpose the vertical data into horizontal format but if there are not the expected number of 'value' items below the entry it will not work correctly. If in the above example Entry2 only had value4 and value5 below it the macro would fail.
What I need is a way to validate that each entry has the correct number of values below it before the macro is run and some way of highlighting or drawing attention to these problems.

I want to be able to do, however. I want to make a spreadsheet that has all the equipment items preloaded into it, along with the quantity that we're supposed to have of said equipment. Then, I would like to import the data from the text file, having it match items in the spreadsheet to their equivalent in the imported text file, and then bring in the quantity scanned. That way, I can use some conditional formatting to show when there is a miss match between "Required" and "On-Hand" quantities.
What I don't know how to do, is get Excel to only import the name of the item, and the quantity scanned, instead of all of the information that the scanner spits out. Also, I don't know how to make it match the name, with the one preloaded into the spreadsheet, so that the correct quantities are matched up. Here's an example of what the scanner spits out: FIELD WIRE,6145-01-155-4256,[Scanned Quantity Goes Here],N/A,N/A,RESPONSE TRAILER,,
The scanner creates records like this the first time you scan an item. So if you scan Field Wire first, it's the first record. However, if you scan it fourth, it's the fourth record. How do I make that match up with a predesigned spreadsheet?

I'm trying to compare three formula results and return the largest number. Ex.:
2217922
The first three numbers are formula results and the last is the following formula:
=IF(O5>P5,O5,IF(P5>Q5,P5,Q5))
Unfortunately, with the list below, you can see the last number (the comparison formula) isn't always the greater of the three:
2217922
2017920
01799
01399
01399
01299
01299
01299
01299
01199
01199
01099
0088
0077
0077
I've also tried other formulas, with no success:
=LARGE(O5:Q5,1)
=MAX(O5:Q5)
=IF(MAX(O5:Q5)=O5,O5,IF(MAX(O5:Q5)=P5,P5,IF(MAX(O5:Q5)=Q5,Q5,"Error")))
What's odd is that if I create the formulas above independent of the specific formula data (O5, P5, and Q5) and just type in numbers, those formulas do exactly what they should. Can I not compare data returned though formula calculations?

The data exists in a spreadsheet that has Data from Column B2:CQ18, but it needs to be dynamic and update anytime someone clicks the button (the button is fine and works with all the other Macros)
Here is the code I have so far.
Code:
Dim LastCol As Range
Dim NextColPaste As Range
With Worksheets("Run Hours")
Set LastCol = Range("M3:M18").End(xlToRight)
Set NextColPaste = LastCol.Offset(, 1)
LastCol.Select
End With
That Code will Select the data in row 3 only and not the whole range of 3:18
I have tried Range (LastColData & "3:18").Select and that selects everything on the whole page from row 18 down.
I have done a lot of searching and for some reason this dynamic selection and pasting of data is escaping me this morning

I have a spreadsheet where a date is entered in column A with data in B-F. I am trying to write code to look in column A for a specific date and enter additional data into columns G-L on the same row. It needs to be able to skip the rows that are blank. So I have the dates of 12/1, 12/2 and 12/3 in column A rows 1,2 and 3 and I want to enter data for 12/2 on row 2 skipping the blank cells in row 1 for 12/1. Here is the code I have below.
VB:
Private Sub CBSecure_Click()
Dim my_name As String
Dim r As Variant
Dim l As Long
sFind = DockDoorCal.Value
If Trim(sFind) = "" Then Exit Sub

I have a dropdown list in C24:C50 (=CategoryList) with data validation and a sub list in D24:D50 (=ItemList) with data validation. I am looking for a way to have code automatically run after selecting an item in the data validation dropdown list in column C.
Example; I click on C24 and make a selection. I what it to trigger code that would move me to D24 and open up the data validation list in D24. After the selection in D24 I would like it to move me back and down 1 row to C25. I have not found anything directly related to this but I have found that code can be run after a selection in a valadition list.

I'm trying to write a VBA script which will delete all rows in my Excel spreadsheet where Column I (which contains a status code) does not contain the word "Completed".
At the moment, I'm doing this the other way round: my script is able to search for entries in Column I which contain the status codes "Pending", "Awaiting Authorisation", "In Progress" etc and delete them. The idea is that when all those rows are deleted, I'll only be left with rows which have a status of "Completed". This works fine at the moment. However, the concern is that if a brand new status code is added to the data file, my script would be unable to pick it up and delete it. This is a small sample of the code I'm currently using (which deletes all the rows with statuses other than Completed):

I have two rows of data, each row also have similar data. I need to find the number of matches that the two lines For example :
7,7,K,A,8,7
K,6,7,7,A,9
To reach the conclusion I need to build six such functions:
=1*(COUNTIF($A$65:$F$65,A66)>=COUNTIF($A66:A66,A66))
=1*(COUNTIF($A$65:$F$65,B66)>=COUNTIF($A66:B66,B66))
=1*(COUNTIF($A$65:$F$65,C66)>=COUNTIF($A66:C66,C66))
=1*(COUNTIF($A$65:$F$65,D66)>=COUNTIF($A66:D66,D66))
=1*(COUNTIF($A$65:$F$65,E66)>=COUNTIF($A66:E66,E66))
=1*(COUNTIF($A$65:$F$65,F66)>=COUNTIF($A66:F66,F66))
The result is 4
Is there a single formula that will give the result ?
Another question, is there a formula that I can compare to the principle of one line against the 20 lines ?

Compare 2 columns of data and have a new 3th column tell me the result of the query based on some conditional information. So, here's an example.
Column A = Programmer Assigned (Yes/No)
Column B = Project State (concept, plan, develop, qualify, rollout, etc)
I'd like to compare the values in A to B and have the formula tell me if the programmer should be assigned in that phase or not. So, in english.
If A = No, then look to see if B = "develop" or "qualify", if it does, populate C with "Update required". If it doesn't, populate with "Correct".
I hope I explained it well enough for you all to help. I originally looked into using conditional formatting to just format the cell differently if I needed to perform an action.

to compare the values of data on one sheet (sheet1) with that of another (sheet2) to see if there has been any changes between the sheets over the previous week. If a macro could go through my data on sheet1, compare cell-by-cell the data that's in sheet 2 and highlight in red font any cells that have different values that would be awesome.
The macro would need to leave the "fill color" of the cell as it was.

I am trying to compare two cells to see if its two values are the same. Some of the cells have a space in between numbers or a symbol like "-"
Ex.
one cell's value is
1213180IN
and the other cell's value is
1213180-IN
the program I have written marks these as different because of the "-" in the second cell....is there a way, maybe with a string function to overlook that "-"?
