Validation Type Drop-down Wildcard In Sumproduct
Oct 5, 2009
I have a worksheet report that counts question answers filtered by facility, date range and case manager. I use Data Validation "List" criteria to make the in-cell drop-down lists for the criteria of the variable values. For most of them the selected value works fine, but for the case manager drop-down I need a value in the list, other than the peoples names, to represent "All" or be a wildcard and include all values in the selection. Here is the formula:

I am having great difficulties in finishing this formula off.
It is a sumproduct containg many criterias, however one of them is to only add up a certain coloumn if another column begins with L&L...
The coloumd contains L&L and a number, but the number changes so i need the number to be a wildcard. I have tried ="L&L???" but this does not work.
=-SUMPRODUCT((Catagory="STK Retail")*(MONTH(Inv_Date)=3)*(YEAR(Inv_Date)=2008)*(How"Account")*(Order="L&L???")*(Stock))

I have spent the last 2 1/2 hours trying to figure this one out on my own. I have attempted multiple possiblities from the forum, however without success.
Okay, I need a count based on 2 criteria. My data source is a different workbook.
My last attempt on a formula is:
=SUMPRODUCT(('[eTE Status - TX HSP Math 2009.xls]Project'!$B$2:$B$248=D2)*('[eTE Status - TX HSP Math 2009.xls]Project'!$A$2:$A$248="978*"))
Column A - ISBN #
This will ALWAYS begin with 978 or will contain N/A. There are no blank cells in this column
Column B - Grade
In the formula above, cell D2 represents the Grade criteria. And in the second part of the criteria I was trying to create a wildcard so all numbers beginning with 978. Excel "accepts" this formula with giving me an error message, but yields 0 as a result rather than 34.

Here is what I have so far:
=SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Red",A9:A56))),B9:B56,L9:L56)/SUMPRODUCT(--(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Red",A9:A56))),B9:B56)
So in column A is the text string i.e Big Red Chiquita Apple
Column B is the dollar value
Column C is another variable.
If I want to find "Red" and "Apple" ONLY within same cell. What would be my best bet?

Sumproduct formula with selection criteria of "A", "B"... in the first column and numeric values in the next colum. The selection is controled by a List where the user can choose "A", "B", ... ,or "ALL". What wildcard-type (pseudo) is needed to select all values when "ALL" is chosen?
I'm using Sumproduct because there is other selection criteria, but it should not impact this part of the formula.
Example: Sumproduct((A1:A100=X1)*(B1:B100)) , where A=selection aray, B=numeric value, X1=corresponding list selection to A

I am having problem filtering out criteria by putting together a sumproduct formula. I would want to use wildcard to populate 2 criteria from the data sheet, they are "Ducted Evaporative Cooler Single Stage 1 Tier" and "Ducted Evaporative Cooler Single Stage X-1 Tier". In my formula, I have used a wildcard "Ducted Evaporative * 1 Tier*" for the prior and "Ducted Evaporative * X-1 Tier*" for the later. I would like to know whether by checking my formula that i am using....

I'm trying to write this but it returns a 0 when I know there are 3 records that match this criteria: =SUMPRODUCT(('Invoice-Detail'!J2:J50="NewJob_Post.NET")*('Invoice-Detail'!H2:H50="KY_*")). I think the problem is in the wildcard character. I don't know if I should be using COUNTIF or SUMPRODUCT or something else?

I have a range of data going accross columns, the entries include, U, T, and F1 to F11. I have a requirement to count how many of a particular type of entry there are, this needs to be done in groups, e.g, counting attendance bonuses which are included in entries, F5,F6, F8 and F11, (i.e. in one cell i need to total how many F5's,6's,8's & 11's are in that row?!). i just cant quite seem to get the formula right to count them.

Leith was kind enough to to put a great combo box together for me (see attached). Is it possible for the drop down list to open on type or do you always have to click the arrow?

I've created a budgeting spreadsheet and it is available to users via the web. When I initially created this I was short sighted and set everything as $'s. Users have limited ability to set formatting on this sheet.
I was wondering if I could create a drop down list for users to select their currency type which in turn would then drive the formatting used in the cells. I'm not quite sure how complicated this would be. Is this something that could only be done usa VB code? I'm pretty basic in Excel (know a good amount of formulas, etc).

I have a large list of data records, 600+, and would like to use List Validation but find EXCEL's default Validation not appropriate for such long lists. What would be perfect is similar to what you get in Access, when you type in part of the record string required, a drop-down list appears and shows you the record entries that have that string within them and not necessarily in character order, quickly wittling down to the few records that apply and then use your arrow keys to move and select the correct record, etc. Example, I own a salon, and many shampoo ranges have many similar products:
Superstar
Superstar Blow Dry Lotion
Superstar Leave In Conditioner
Superstar Shampoo
Superstar Conditioner...........

is it possible to restrict a cell in such a way that it is impossible to type data into it, but rather select data from a drop down, through validation?

How to make a drop-down list appear when a cell is double-clicked as opposed to just clicking on the box to the right of the cell that appears when you click in the cell? I want to be able to use the ability to drag-copy the cell contents from the little square in the bottom-right of the cell, but cannot do this when there is a validation drop-down list!!

I have a spreadsheet with two drop downs, one lets say has country and the other city. When I select a country in the country drop down, I want to be able to only select cities in that country.
I used a method that I found in an earlier post, where I define the name of list of cities of a country to that country and then use the indirect function in city dropdown down validation. The prolem is I can still get mismatched city and country because when I change country, I still have the city from the previous selection untill I drop down and select the city again.
I would like the city to show blank when I change the country until I select a city from that country.

Is there a way to increase the number of items shown in the list when you drop down a validated cell? (I don't want to use a combobox for this).

I named a range State, it contains a list of all the US state abbreviations. I do a data validation that refers to this range as a List. If I type in something that's not in the named range I get the error message I created for the Validation.
But - I don't get a drop down button. I tried to do the same validation on another cell and get the same thing. Other drop downs for validation appear.

I have a list for the user to enter in creditor name, balance, monthly payment and interest rate. In the credior name portion, I have used a Data Validation List (drop down menu of bank names) for the user to choose from.
Later on... The user types in the customers ACTUAL bank acount that they will be making payments from.
If the user types in a bank that is the same as one from the drop down list earlier on, I would like a dialog box to come up with further instructions.

Would anyone know if it is possible to extend the size of the list presented when using the data validation drop down? At present, it seems to default to 8 choices (even though there is a scroll bar) but I was wondering could the list Automatically display, say 20 choices?

I was wondering if there is a way to see all the choices on a drop list. Currently the drop list only shows 8 choices but I am wanting to see all 32 choices eliminating the need to scroll the list. I have attached a picture.

I have 2 validation boxes. The first is a simple list of 5 options (based on
a 'name' range). The second is a filter of a larger list depending on the
answer in the first box. I have made my 'name' range as big as the largest
list but other lists are quite short. The problem I have it that the drop
down box is showing all the blank cells in my 'name' range.
The bigger problem is that when you select the pull down it highlights the
blank field first instead of the first item on the list so you have to scroll
up. This is a problem as staff think there is nothing on the list. So how do
I either not show the blanks or get the drop down to start at the top of the
list?

From the Excel Toolbar - Data/Validation - I'm successfully using a validation list [drop down arrow] to be able to choose from a list and have whatever value I choose entered into the cell. So far so good. Everything working fine.
Here's the thing though, the list I'm referencing is a column with 50 rows. Sometimes there are many items in the column - up to 50, and sometimes only 3 items depending on other variables in the spreadsheet.
Because the list is referencing the entire 50 rows in the column (only way I know how to do it), during times when the column has only 3 items (3 rows), the drop down still shows a bunch of blank spaces (like 47 of them - tons of white space with a scroll bar window that runs down beyond where one can see), which is awkward (strange looking).
How do I program the validation list to only show as many cells within a range that have actual values within the cell, or where <> "" ? Or, in other words, to leave all blank spaces found in the list = NOT SHOWN.

Can we have colors to choose from,in the validation list drop down? Instead of values of text I want colors to choose from the drop down list. Once I click on the small arrow, I should have the color shades to choose from the drop down list.
