Applying A Percentage To A Long Column
Jan 9, 2009I have a long column of numbers that I want to apply a single percentage to all the numbers in each column. How do I do that?

View 3 RepliesI work in a factory where we create different types of units daily. Below is a list of planned production on a specific date, say today's date. This is a very crude example, with information missing, and it is important to know that there are conditions attached such as:
The types are added randomly. The amount of types is much greater meaning that each type is on it's own page with breaks between. Everything produced on this date will have a URN (unique reference number) with its first 6 digits equating to yy-mm-dd and the last two being the position of the unit in the production sequence (first=01, second=02 etc).
I have gotten it to the point where if you enter them in sequence (Type A first for example) it will lookup to see the last assigned URN and taking the quantity into account issue the correct URNs.
The issues I have are when the URNs are less than "10", there is a problem displaying the 0 before the digit which disrupts the sequence. I can provide more clear examples if required.

I've applied a basic multiplication formula =D12*E12 in a table Column F, also I've filled it throughout but now if new rows are inserted in between or at the end of the table, new cells in this columns doesn't include this formula.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSupposing you would like to find the median of numbers in column D, but only for rows that have the word "Jones" in column A? Is there a way to do this? Obviously I know I could do a sort and simply specify the range myself, but we're dealing with nearly 2000 rows and a LOT of different values in column A
It occurs to me that it would be even better if I could ask excel, in effect, to identify every separate text string in column a and then find the median of the corresponding numbers in column D. In other words I wouldn't have to type any strings from column A at all.
how do I apply a formula I entered into one cell to all the cells in that column, without going through the tedious process of typing the formula in again in each cell ? I've done it before but don't remember how.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if it's possible to have a formula applied to an entire column without adding unnecessary length to the spreadsheet until someone is actually scrolling down and using more rows. I want formulas to be constantly present in two columns to automatically calculate values as they are entered into other cells in the same row, but ideally without the otherwise empty spreadsheet being X amount of rows long.
I initially had the formula dragged down 15,000 rows, but it would really be much better if it could start out as a smaller size and then expand as the user requires.
I have an excel sheet that I am importing to my network software. One of the columns lists telephone numbers, but they are as follows: aaa-bbbb
I need a way to enter an area code (the same area code) for all of the numbers in the column without manually entering them (the program I am importing this list to will not work without 9-digit telephone numbers).
I have a data range with just under 100,000 lines by about 60 columns. In one of the final columns I used the formula =IF(COUNTIF($A$2:A2,A2)=1,1,0) in order to set a flag the first time that each unique value in Column A appears. (I know about the remove duplicates function but the data was sorted in a certain order and I needed information specifically from the first row in which each unique value appears.) The formula works - it's not very quick, but it works.
The issue I'm encountering though is that now I want to remove that formula so it doesn't keep recalculating and every technique I use either takes forever or stalls Excel entirely. I've seen the same issue in two different spreadsheets where I used the same technique. Techniques I've tried: selecting and deleting the entire column, copying and pasting values over the formula, Selecting all the cells and pressing delete, copying and pasting an empty cell over them, Selecting and cutting and pasting the cells to another workbook. I've done these while disabling automatic recalculation and even turning off Data Filtering. I just can't understand why a simple delete operation should take so long, it shouldn't matter what is in the cell because all I want to do is delete it.
I am trying to write the following statement in a cell in excel lets say O3 so I can drag it down to the rest of the column, I was trying to see if there was a previous posting about this but I didn't find it. the if statement goes like this:
=IF(M3=Sheet3!$B$2,Sheet3!$C$2,IF(Sheet1!M3=Sheet3!$B$3,Sheet3!$C$3,IF(M3=Sheet3!$B$3,Sheet3!$C$3,....until it reaches to if(Sheet3!$B$20,Sheet3!$C$20,"PENDING"))
Is there a way I can do this I know probably through a VBA but I have no idea how to set it up.
I have a long list of names in Column A sorted alphabetcially. I dont know how long the list is.
I wish to find the start and end row numbers of names that begin with a specific letter, for example if the letter is B I want the first row number that starts with B and the row number that ends with B. Assuming the letter I want to use is in C1, here is what I came up with:
i have a long column pair of data, each entry in its own cell:

how can i program a macro to 'split' this column according to date? please refer to the attached picture as an example. i know this is probably a simple question but please bear with me i'm still new to excel programming.
I have a sheet with about 20000 rows consisting of hundreds of names which
occur randomly.After each name is a date of the type 29-Jan-06.The dates are in ascending order.I wish to print in a third column how long it is in days since that name appeared previously in the list,if it never appeared before this will be zero.
I have a four column listbox where 4th column is percentage. In my source worksheet cells are formatted as percentage but when this is displayed in list box it shows approximately 10 decimals or maybe even more. How can I change my code only to show two decimals in 4th column?

I have a simple column chart showing the progress of each month but I'd like a 13th pair of bars showing the percentage, with the percentage scale on the secondary axis. Do I have to choose the percentage cells as a separate series?
I would like to figure out a formula that will calculate what percentage of a column is filled based on the total number of rows.
For instance if I have Column K and that will have delayed savings by sales pursuit, I want to be able to calculate the percentage of what is being delayed from a total number of pursuits (basically the count of rows in column A). Ideally this would be a dynamic range (offset).
Ex. Say I have 25 rows in column A, but I only have 2 rows in column K filled. How can I calculate that there is a 8% (2/25) delay?

I have an excel spread sheet with columns of dates I am trying to get an average formula that counts dates less than a year old as 1 and blank cells and dates greater than a year old as 0 and then gives me a percentage. For example I have a column with 10 dates all less than 1 year old I would get 100% but if I had a column with 8 dates less than a year old and 1 dates older than a year, and 1 blank cell, I would get 80%
Is this possible at all, or do I have to calculate the percentage for each column individually.
I am trying to add columns to my Excel 2010 Pivot Table to calculate % change of sales from year to year. The field name is "Year", while the item columns in the field are 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011. How do I add a column between the years that will calculate the % change os sales up or down from the previous year?

The above list represents 2 columns. The left column is 400 lines long. The right column is partially complete with 2 letter codes that represent the 6 letter codes on the right. I'm trying to convert the column in the XXYZXX format to a 2 letter column and each of those 2 letters corresponds to the 6 letter column on the left. How do I do this using any method or Vlookup? How does one convert a column of text to a corresponding column of text? I don't want to have to manually type in 2 letter codes that match up the left column. What do I do instead?
I have a single column of numerical values that may repeat many times within
the column.
I require a flexible Formula:
Use an Input Cell for the specified and changeable Percentage(s) %.
Column may be filtered – so only take into account Visible Filtered Cells.
The Formula will calculate and Return the numerical range of values that fall
between the specified percentage % (using the Input Cell) e.g.; 70%.
The Formula should Return two numeric values: a Start Value and an End Value
– NOT necessarily the minimum and maximum per se BUT the MIN and MAX of the
values that appear 70% of the time in the column; therefore, taking into
account Repeat / Duplicate values.
The calculated Results: the two numeric values will be returned to separate
cells on a new Sheet.
I have a workbook that I've built for a project. I've attached a sample workbook. What I'm trying to do, for the entire sheet or workbook if possible, is turn any Cell with a percentage of 30% to 49% yellow and any cell with a percentage of 50% or more Red. I would also like to move the ID's of the variable cells, for example Id number 9922, to the cells beside the description of the rows, Affected would be an example, if the information contained in the same row as the ID meets with a set of variables.
For example I only want the ID's moved if they correspond with IDsub 1-25. One more thing, the people who will be using this spreadsheet will be copying data from a website when it is imported it does not insert the values as numbers. I would like to format the cells, in example workbook they would be any of the cells labeled ID IDsub Variable or Number, so that anything put in that cell will automatically be converted to a number.
I should also probably add that the formatting will be done on approximately 80 rows a sheet with 47 sheets.
I'm trying to create a formula that takes from "Manual" Sheet the number from colume G2 and multiply it by the percentage in sheet "AllocationRule".
My formula currently is =Manual!$G$2*AllocationRule!$B5.
What needs to happen is that the total number in "Manual" needs to be distributed evenly in 4 rows by the percentages allocated in "AllocationRule".
Right now I can't copy my formula over to the sheet because the "AllocationRule" should stop at B5 and not go further and the G2 from "Manual" should not change for the percentage allocation but should change to the next row for the next month.
And then after I've done the calculation I want the LOB in "AllocationRule" to be displayed in the LOB in "H1913_H1914" but I'm not sure what formula to use.
I have a column of cells with values - 0.2%, 0.32%, 0.22, 0.5 etc. The cells with % symbol are in ' Percentage, 2 decimal' format while the plain numbers are in 'General' format i.e. column contains cells in either of these formats. I need a macro where I can specify the column and it will select the cells with the % format, convert it to 'General' and multiply the result by 100 eg. 0.2% converted to 'General' becomes 0.002. When multiplied by 100, result is 0.2 i.e. is displayed without the % symbol.

Then sum the products.
I have a table of the 8 percentages I am trying to apply. There are 7 different percentage applications.
So if I am looking up Mike's earnings during those 8 specified weeks and the criteria in column 2 is "B", then I want to apply the appropriate column of percentages to those 8 looked up earnings, Multply them and then Add them.
Up until now, I have been trying to use some hybrid of HLOOKUP, SUMPRODUCT, and IF.
