VBA / Using String From Input Box As Criteria For CountIF
Aug 19, 2014
I'm trying to enter text (a staff members initials) into an Input Box so that the initials are then used as the citeria in a CountIF formula entered by VBA
A simplified version of the code I am using is:
Dim staffname As String
staffname = InputBox(Prompt:="You name please.", _
Title:="ENTER INITIALS", Default:="MC")
Range("H9").FormulaR1C1 = "=COUNTIF(RC[-3]:RC[-1],"" & staffname & "")"
The issue is getting the staffname string to be entered within the formula.
What is the correct combination of "" & to enable this to work?
I'm trying to run a countif formula in a separate worksheet searching for a long text string. The text string is long enough that I can't copy the entire string into the Ctrl F Find function.
=COUNTIF('Data Month 1'!C:C,F4)
F4 = text string put together using the values of multiple adjascent cells. Total characters are over 26.
I'm currently working on a spreadsheet (see attached) which will have both numeric and text string data. This will be sorted by calender month and linked to another spreadsheet.
Could someone please list 2 functions for me.
The 1st would allow act like a filter allowing only data to be counted for a selected month from a drop down list.
The 2nd allows a counting of pre-set (drop down list) text strings to be counted.
Sorry seems a bit complicated and really I should have either a created a pivot report or used access but I'd like to continue with Excel for this exercise.
I use Excel 2003 and I have the following problem: I have 3 columns, A containing a list of employees (MICHAEL, BOB, MIKE, etc.) B containing their work starting hour (8.00, 8.30, 9.00, etc.) C containing the possible employee absence reason (ILLNESS, HOLIDAY, INJURY, etc.)
I would like to write a formula that counts the number of employees who have a work starting hour within 7.00 and are not absent. A possible table is this one:
NAME START ABSENCE MICHAEL 6.30 BOB 8.30 MIKE 9.00 HOLIDAY BRIAN 7.00 TOM 6.30 ILLNESS
The formula I'm looking for should calculate "2" (because MICHAEL and BRIAN are the only 2 employees starting work hour within 7.00 and not absent). As I have thought it could be useful, in another worksheet I have inserted: in A column the list of all the starting work hours: 0.00 (A2), 0.30 (A3), 1.00 (A4), 1.30 (A5), ... 7.00 (A16), 7.30 (A17), ... 23.30 (A49).
in B column the list of all the absence reasons: ILLNESS (B2), HOLIDAY (B3), INJURY (B4). I have defined 2 names, the first called EARLY_MORNING (that I have associated to the range from 0.00 to 7.00 of work starting hours column, that is A2:A16), the second called ABSENCE_REASON (that I have associated to the range (B2:B4) of absence reasons' column). What kind of formula can I write to obtain what I want (using the 2 names EARLY_MORNING and ABSENCE_REASONS defined in the other worksheet)?
I have a spreadsheet with a list of months numbers and average turnarounds. Each row represents a different factor, so there are multiple rows for each month.
What vba function can I use that checks criteria much like SUMIF or COUNTIF uses? In other words, say you want to write COUNTIF that only includes visible cells...
Public Function CountVIf(rng As range, criteria As String) Dim cell As range, cmd As String For Each cell In rng If cell.RowHeight <> 0 And cell.ColumnWidth <> 0 Then cmd = "COUNTIF(" & cell.Address & ",""" & criteria & """)" CountVIf = CountVIf + Evaluate(cmd) End If Next cell End Function
How can I do this without having to rely on Evaluate("COUNTIF...."?
What I need to do is count the number of “Cs” in a column based on a date in another column but in the same row. I have tried something similar to this: COUNTIF($C$1:$C$20,"=today()")+COUNTIF($E$1:$E$20,"=complete") but is does not work. If the date in the column is less than or equal to a date specified in a cell in another worksheet, I want it to count the C in the row (if there is one).
how to specify a file extension type for a browseforfolder part of what i've been doing.
It's not calling correctly as i'm not sure how to feed the inputData string back into the main.
Obviously there's probably better ways of doing this, but can my way be corrected easily?
I've been looking into ByVal and ByRef, but have only seen examples goin from main to the sub and not the other way.
Code: Sub Main() Dim strFolderName As String Dim strFolderTest As String Dim FRCntrHiLim As Variant MsgBox "before calling inputbox" Call InputBoxTest(inputData) '
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range) Set Target = Me.Range("c4:f100") Dim iSold As Long, iColumn As Integer Dim strTitle As String If Intersect(ActiveCell, Target) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub iColumn = ActiveCell.Column Select Case iColumn Case 3
An what i need to happen id the input box saying "Please enter quantity of (whatever is in cell A11) assuming i am clicking on E11
so in other words, in cell A11 it says "MONITOR", i need the input box to pop up and say "Please enter quantity of MONITOR "
what I'm trying to do is to make a logbook for a machining center. Each part has an op10 and an op20, essentially front and back. And each part number falls into the category of OS or FS. I've used AND logic to make tables in hidden columns to be used by a countif statement to determine my totals. I.e. to determine if a scroll is completed, op20 has a a value of 1 AND column C is "OS".
I use =IF(AND(A9=1;C9="OS");1;" ") Then I countif criteria is 1 in the column i created with that statement.
That works just fine. Now what I want to do is to be able to create daily totals of OS and FS by simply modifying a variable date in a formula. So I'd like to essentially say: Countif Column C =OS and Corresponding column D = 1, and corresponding Shift date = 10.02.12(date to be variable). I'm at a wall here. Is there any way to do this somewhat simply?
I'm trying to count multiple criteria from a second page in a work book, all the formulas i've looked up and tried do not seem to work... here's the formulas i've tried. DKOBULAR is the name of the 2nd page. D is the column used for the different resolves.
I have data in two columns. Column B has calculated string values of "BMAJOR" and "BMINOR" and column C has date values.
I am trying to get a count of how many occurences of "BMAJOR" or "BMINOR" occur for every week starting today. I have column AJ which returns today() and column AK which returns today()+7. I can individually count number of occurences of dates that fall within these dates with the following formula. This for row 2.
I am using a work sheet where I want to count if Column A has one criteria and column B has another example column B states is used to track contracts it can be vendor column L tracks status it can be open, received, or closed
I want to count the cell if the vendor name matches and the status is open
also if that is possible is the same possible with 3 ranges and criterias?
In Excel 2003, I need a countif to check for 2 criteria: (1) the left function looking for the value "Territory" in column A and (2) value > 0 in column G. I only want to count the rows where both the criteria are met. I have tried different combinations of countif including "and" in the formula, but I cannot get it to work. What is the proper syntax?
I am trying to extract some data from a large spreadsheet and having problems...
Column C contains text descriptions, e.g 'Description One', 'Description Two', 'Description Three'
Column O contains a date.
I need to count the number of items that have a date prior to 1st April 2007 and have certain text contained in the full text string value in column C e.g. 'One'
I have an Excel file with 42000 records that are identified by a Reference in Column E. There should be two records per reference in the file. I need to identify all records that only appear once, as well as all records that have more than 2 entries.
I need to create a formula which counts the number of times a username appears in column X based on a given value in Column Y. This data will not be static - will need to be refreshed regularly. Countif does not support multiple criteria - what is the best way to create this formula?
I'm writing a macro that will automatically change the display in a column of cells.
The input in the cell would be a decimal value, (e.g. 1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2). As of now, I think the only input options are whole numbers and 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 fractions.
After inputting the decimal value, the cell should update to display the value as the following string format :
Input: 1.25 Displays: 1-1/4"
The purpose being to enable fast data entry while displaying in the desired format.
Here is where I know to begin for the automatic update:
Code:
Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Application.EnableEvents = False ' ' 'Code ' ' Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub
I have a start date column and column for status. Status is either "in-progress" or "complete". I want to count the number of "complete" items that fall within a specific date range. I have tried countif but I can only seem to get a count of all items that fall between the date range. I do not want a pivot table for this.
I haven't been this deep into excel before. The deeper I look, the more potential I recognize, the more amazed I get. That being said, I have come to a tough count issue. Let me attempt to explain as precisely as possible.
My current worksheet is large but I am only particularly concerned with two columns of information (Regions) and (Days). The logic I am attempting is something along the lines of Count If Region = East, or West, and Days is greater than 0, less than 60.
I am open to any and all suggestions on how to tackle this situation. I have been able to achieve similar counts by using pivot tables but the dynamic nature of these two columns presents some difficulties that my “new user” mind has been unable to work through.
I have a bunch of cells that i want to count in a table based on 2 criteria. The first would be checking whether or not it matches a certain text which i can do. Now i have a column for "Completed Date" and "Deadline Date". Each deadline date is different. I know i need some sort of array function in there to compare all the completed dates vs deadline dates but i just can't think of it. This will be the second criteria.
