Adding Dim'd Variables: Ignoring Strings & Adding Number

Jan 13, 2007

I've got a problem involving several Dim'd Variables needing to be added up, they're all Dim'd as Variants though as they can be either strings or numbers at any time.

I need a formula (VBA) to add them up (to add their actual numeric values - not just a "1" if they contain a number) and ignore them all together if they contain string values.

Adding Numbers Treated As Text?

Dec 26, 2011

Is there a way to add numbers when you have them in a cell treated as text?

For example, instead of writing the information in each cell by hand, I copy/paste the information to excel, but the format I get is this:

Cell A1: 25-35
Cell A2: 31-30
Cell A3: 2-12
etc.

In the above example, I am treating those cells as text because if I don't do it this way, some information will format it as dates. (For example, cell A3 it would read is 12-FEB (2-12), but it should be 2-12)

I want to add the values 25 + 31 + 2 = 58 and 35 + 30 + 12 = 77

Without using "Text to Columns" tab to separate the numbers in each cell?

Adding Numbers That Have Text In Same Field?

Sep 20, 2012

I am working on making a time sheet log that will have employee name, 7 rows for days of the week and a row for total hours worked. each cell will either be blank in that row because employee has not worked that day or it will have numerical hours and the place the employee worked. We have many different job sites so text is subject to change. For example Monday employee 1 worked 8 hours at MRCR, so cell would state 8 MRCR Tuesday did not work so left blank. Wednesday worked 8 hours at CCR so will be 8 CCR. Thursday worked 8 hours at CU. so 8 CU in cell. Friday Saturday and Sunday left blank. How do i add create a formula that would be standard formula for each week for employee that would add numbers and omit text as well as ignore blank cells from week to week as the employee schedule changes.

Extracting Numbers From Text And Then Adding Together

Oct 28, 2006

I am using Excel to collate the averages for my cricket team. All the players are listed in column A, followed by their scores for each individual game throughout the year and ending with a total runs column for the season.

My problem arises when I have to give an indication that a player scored runs but was "not out", which impacts on the overall averages because a player who is not out is credited with the runs scored but not charged with an innings. So a player who made 15 not out is credited with "15no" in my workbook.

As a simple example: Player's name (Barry Smith) appears in A1, then his five scores: 23, 15no, 35, 125no, 2 in cells A2:A6. SUM($A2:$A6) entered in A7 ignores the cells that also include text (the "nos") and gives me a total of 60. Is there a formula I can enter in A7 to disregard the "nos" and just read the digits in those cells to come up with the grand total of 200? The run totals can be 1, 2 or 3 digits and I can split the "no" from the number (i.e. "15 no" instead of "15no") if this makes things easier.

Text To Columns Macro..ignoring Warning Box

I have this macro that does text-to-columns based on delimiting with spaces.
It seems to work fine but the first time I use it when I open my spreadsheet it comes up with "Do you want to replace the contents of the destination cells?".The answer to this is always yes, is there a little bit of code I can poke into this macro to ignore this warning?

Ignoring Blank Cells/commonly Occuring Text

Feb 14, 2007

1. First thing I am trying to do. I have a column of cells that have multiple values, some with text and some with no values at all. I want to be able to display in A1 the most commonly occurring text in cells C1:C15, and be able to display in B1 the number of times that A1 occurs in the same range. Below are the formulas that I am using. There are two problems that I am running into: First, the formula returns a #NA error if any of the cells in the range are left blank. Second, the formula counts the spaces or zeros, so if there are more blanks than the word “amber” then A1 returns “ ” and B1 returns the corresponding number.

A1
=INDEX(C1:C15,(MODE(MATCH(C1:C15,C1:C15,0))))

B1
=COUNTIF(C1:C16,A1)

2. Second thing I am trying to do. In A2 I want to display the second most commonly occurring text in the range, with it’s corresponding count in cell B2, and the third most in A3 and B3, etc

Illustration:

C1 Amber
C2 Red
C3
C4
C5
C6 Red

Desired result:

A1 "Red" B1 "2"
A2 "Amber" B2 "1"

Results with forumla as posted

A1 " " B1 "3"

Conditional Formatting Multiple Number Values But IGNORING Text?

Sep 6, 2013

I have a spread sheet where there are multiple rows of price quotes from different suppliers.

Some suppliers have quoted, some however have not and there is a "#N/A" or "no bid".

SupplierA
SupplierB
SupplierC
SupplierD

1.3
No Bid
2.3
No Bid

How can I get a conditional format to check each row for the lowest numeric bid, highlight it but ignore the text?? What I have tried so far doesn't work.

=G31=MAX($G$31:$J$31)

This does not seem to work, I don't know how to exclude the text values from the MAX function.

Find First Blank Row Ignoring Formulas Returning Empty Text

Oct 2, 2007

I have a range that is filled with formulae and the the number of rows in the range with data changes as the formulae reevaluate the inputs. So the rows with visible data changes between one row and 200 rows. By looking at the output in the first column of the range, Col M and finding the last row where the formulae returns data, I need a way of selecting across the columns of the range (M1 through to Qi) where i is the number of rows that have data in.

Excel 2010 :: Sumproduct With Multiple Criteria And Ignoring Text Values

Jun 19, 2014

Using Excel 2010, I am trying to do a Sumproduct formula with two criteria, one of which needs to ignore text values.

Here is the set up:

Column AColumn BColumn C
(Side)(Qty)(Price)
Buy5,51215.67
Sell119,428null
Buy24,20945.77
Sell20,05412.25
...

I'm trying to find the sumproduct of Qty * Price if the side equals "Buy" (or "Sell") but ignoring the "null" value in column C. The formula I have is =SUMPRODUCT(--($A$2:$A$20="Buy")*IF(ISNUMBER($C$2:$C$20),--($B$2:$B$20*$C$2:$C$20)))

The result in the cell is 0, but if I open the Insert Function dialog box, I see the correct value being returned.

I need to add up all the numbers that don't have a $ in front into the 1 cell, and all the ones with the $ in front into another cell.

VBA For Adding Numbers

May 7, 2008

I have a sheet that auto-populates with code from a userform that also provides the cell formatting. What I need is that in Column A it keeps a running count of the errors that are populated on the sheet.

Code for the formatting

With ActiveSheet
lastrow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row

For i = 4 To lastrow

If Cells(i, "B").Value "" Then
With .Cells(i, "A")

With .Offset(0, 0)
.Value = "1"
End With

.Offset(0, 1).Resize(1, 9).Borders.LineStyle = xlContinuous
.Offset(0, 5).Resize(1, 3).Interior.ColorIndex = 35
End With
End If
Next i
End With
What I need is instead of Value of "1" with the offset(0, 0), I need it to take the previous rows value and Add 1.

So the Range("A4").Value = "1"
Range("A5").Value = "2"

As the new errors are added to the sheet I need the value in "A" to be 1 more than the previous "A" value.

All Possible Combinations When Adding 2 Numbers

Feb 16, 2014

I have stamps of 2 denominations: .32 and .33

I want to know how I would write/format a spreadsheet that would tell me what are all the possible outcomes between the two numbers and what the components of these two numbers would be.

For example.

(8 * .32) + (3 * .33) = 3.55

So somewhere I would be able to see that in order to achieve 3.55 I need (8) .32 stamps and (3).33 stamps

Adding Zeros To The End Of Numbers

Mar 27, 2009

I have a large spreadsheet of employee data saved in a shared network folder so that others can access it. Starting about a week ago, anytime I enter a number in any cell, Excel adds two zeros to the end of the number. For instance, a 1 becomes 100.

When other users open the file on their computer and enter a number, everything is normal - no zeros are added. I'm guessing I inadvertantly enabled a function somewhere along the line, but have been unable to figure out how to undo the function.

Adding Numbers Using Dates

I have a spread sheet that shows the dates items were shipped. When trying to work out the value of parts shipped in a month using SUMIF I get the value zero, I believe this to be because (obviously), there are multiple dates of ships during the month, I therefore tried ignoring the day of ship in the SUMIF but this did not work, the date format is DD/MM/YYYY.

Adding Numbers In A Cell

May 5, 2008

I am trying to figure out how to add the individual numbers in a cell to return me a value in another cell.

Ex: In cell "A1" the number 5861.01 is entered.
In Cell "B1" the value 21 is returned (which is computed as 5+8+6+1+0+1=21)

I have tried playing around with array formulas within the actual spreadsheet but I cannot seem to get this to work. I have also tried some VBA, however I am not familiar enough with arrays to figure it out, if its even possible.
