VBA Test To Determine If Cell Has A Formula Or Value

Dec 28, 2008

I need to take a specific action when a cell has an actual formula in it versus when it just has a "value". Is there a procedure or command which will allow me to identify if a certain cell has a "formula" (like =sum(a1: a5) ) or just a value.

Test Two Cells And Set A Third Cell With Different Values Depending On Test Results

Aug 21, 2013

I am trying to determine Long Term Gain (LTG,) Long Term Loss (LTL,) Short Term Gain (STG,) Short term Loss (STL,) or No Loss nor Gain (NGL)testing two cells (A1 and B1)and setting a third cell (C1) to the text LTG, LTL, STG, STL, or NGL depending on the results of testing cells A1 and B1.

A1 represent a number of years and B1 represent gains or losses (negative)in dolars.

The way I see the logic is as follows:

If cell A1 or cell B1 are either one of them equal to 0, then it is neither a Gain nor a Loss (NGL.)

If cell A1 is greater than or equal to 1, then it is Long Term; else, if A1 is greater than 0 and less than 1, then it is Short Term.

On the other hand, if cell B1 is greater than 0, then it is a Gain; if B1 is less than 0 (a negative number,) then, it is a Loss.

I need to find (if it is posible in Excel) one formula to test the two cells for posible outcomes:

If A1 = 0 then C1 = NGL
If B1 = 0 then C1 = NGL
If A1 >= 1 and B1 > 0 the C1 = LTG.
If A1 >= 1 and B1 < 0 the C1 = LTL.
If A1 < 1 and B1 > 0 then C1 = STG
If A1 < 1 and B1 < 0 then C1 = STL

Formula To Test For Cell Color

Sep 10, 2008

Is there formula to use if I want an IF statement to add a date "TODAY()" to a cell if a corresponding cell is highlighted? I would search for this in the archives if I had a clue what to search for. "Conditional formatting", maybe?

In Col J "Appt. Date", I want to add today's date if the cell in Col C of that row is green.

How would that work? My worksheet is posted below: ......

Formula That Will Test Text Conditions In A Single Cell

Apr 1, 2006

I need a function that will use a column of text values and test these values
to see if one or more of the values exist in a single cell. If it does I need
the function to return true or false.

Ie. cell A1 contains the text "Jim Smith" the B column contains the test
names (column of test values ) ie. B1 is "bill" B2 is "fred" B3 is "jim".
Because Jim is in the cell A1 I would need the function in C1 to return the
value "true". If A1 contained the text "bob smith" then function in C1 would
return the value "false".

Determine Whether Cell Is Formula Or Direct Input (constant)

Jan 28, 2013

I have a template with formulas calculating a default value, but still allowing the user to override the cells with direct input.

I want to use conditional formatting to highlight any cells that have been overwritten, but can't find a way for Excel to differentiate between a cell with a formula or an inputted constant.

I realize there is a VBA "isFormula" function, but I don't want to have to use VBA for this.

If Formula To Test For 3 Values

Jan 25, 2007

I am creating a spreadsheet to monitor horse race betting but my formulas aren't coming out right.

The problem is to do with adding winnings to a running balance or minusing each bet's stake money from the running balance if the bet loses.

I have two formulas that are giving me a problem, both are in the P column in the attached spreadsheet. The first one, located in row 2, being slightly different as it is the first data row and so contains the starting balance in the formula.


=IF(OR(J2="W",J2="P",300+S2),IF(J2="L",300-O2,"")).
This produces a blank or error result.

=IF(OR(J3="W",J3="P",P2+S3),IF(J3="L",P2-O3,""))
This produces an error whatever is in the J column

Formula To Extract Test Scores

Apr 11, 2008

I teach history to four different groups of students that, in my spreasheet, I have labeled "1", "2", "3", and "4." The number of the group to which each student belongs is listed in CK2:CK100

Each quarter, I give all students a test and list the corresponding score next to each student's name. The scores are listed in CM2:CM100.

The name of each student appears in CL2:CL100.

I am looking for the formulas to extract the highest five scores in each group starting at CS2. So CS2 would contain the value of the highest score obtained by a student in group 1, CS3 the second highest score in that group and so on through group 4.

Formula Structure For IF / THEN With Logical Test Value Ranges

Feb 19, 2014

I'm trying to create a formula that will determine the bonus (%) for sales made. Here's the table:

<10000 sales = 0% bonus
>=10000 sales but <=29999 sales = 5% bonus
>=30000 sales but <=to 44999 = 7% bonus
>50000 sales = 10% bonus

Since the sales and bonus figures are subject to change each year I'd like the formula to point to the numbers but that part seems easy if I can get the formula right.

Test And Sum The Same Range Of Cells In Each Sheet By Simply Coping And Pasting The Formula

Feb 2, 2010

On Sheet1, Row 2 I have my columns named January-December, which correspond to the names of the other 12 sheets in my workbook. I want to test and sum the same range of cells in each sheet by simply coping and pasting the formula. I am using INDIRECT and SUMPRODUCT, but is there a better way? It seems to have caused the sheet to run slowly. Perhaps it's just the amount of data. Here is an example of the formulas I am using:

=SUMPRODUCT((INDIRECT("'"&B2&"'!$B$3:$B$200")=$A$2)*(INDIRECT("'"&B2&"'!$C$3:$C$200")="Yes")*(INDIRE CT("'"&B2&"'!$E$3:$E$200")))

This gives me the intended result. B2 in this case is January. C2 is February and so forth.

Test If A Cell Is Reference In An Array

May 4, 2006

I find myself needing this often and hope there is an elegant formula that can make this easier.

Is there a formula that will test if a particular cell is referenced somewhere in another array or vector? Specifically, I find that I have to aggregate long lists into categories to fit budget formats of various lenders and investors. For example, my detail budget has separate rows for Water, Sewer, Garbage, Electrical, and Gas. These expenses have to be aggregated on one funder’s budgets as “Utilities.” Sometimes after going through this I find that my totals don’t add up, i.e. I left an item out of the aggregated budget. I would like to be able to add a column on the detail budget to test if each budget item has been referenced in the aggregated budget.

Entering A Formula To Determine A Grade

Apr 6, 2007

I would like to prepare mid-term grades for my history class, and have three categories, which I would like to insert into a spreadsheet to calculate the grades, as follows:

Mid-term 1: 30%
Mid-term 2: 40%
essays: 30%

each of the three grades is a number from 1-100; the final answer will be a number which I can then convert to a letter grade.

I'm just not sure what function to use, in that last column, to get Excel to calculate the final answer/grade.

Let's just assume that Mid-term 1 is in column A; Mid-term 2 is in column B; and the essay grade is in column C. How can I create a function that will allow me to give the above percentages to the respective assignments, when calculating a grade?
