I have read a lot of posts, and maybe I am way out of my leage.
I am trying to setup a spreed sheet for our fire department.
We want to create a way to track training pay. When someone attends the
training we want to just put an "x" in next to their name in the column for
that training event rather then 9.75 for example. But we also want to be able
to add up all training for that individual for the year and see what we paid
them.
The idea is we have a sheet that shows us checks of who attended and who
did not. But we also want to add up the pay associated with that x.
So:
We want column A to be member names
Column B is a training event.
We want to go down and put in an "X" for each member who attended.
Now What I want is to have that "x" be associated with a dollar value. For
example lets say that they get $10 for that training.
THe idea is that I can run a total at the end of the year for each member
for each "x" and see how much money they recieved. I.E. the "x" is a hidden
value maybe that when I add up all the "x"s for a member it will give me
total dolar value for all training they attended.
I currently have a spreadsheet which I use to do an audit of the office stationery supplies.
There 3 columns at the focus of this question:
F - Number of items in stock H - Stock re-ordering level I - Order Required
I currently have an IF statement to tell me if I need to re-order any stock, by comparing the Number of items in stock against Stock Re-ordering level.
The statement is =IF(H1>=F1, "Yes","No")
This works fine under most circumstances. However, in some of the H cells, I have the text "Special" which indicates that the stock will only need re-ordering on a special occasion.
Any value I enter in F will cause the I to say "Yes".
Is there any way to make the word "Special" equivalent to 0, so I says "No"?
First challenge will be assigning point values to Words so I can them up and create averages etc
So I have 4 words I need to learn to assign point vales to, then create a formula that will count the points in a row. That will get me off and running,
So here is a very vague idea of what I mean, this would go in A5 as a example
if A1:D1= complete+2 incomplete+0 submitted+1 missing-1
I want to be able to "count" apples and oranges. Is there a way to record a particular text in a text formatted cell and count it. e.g. 10 cells, 3 say "apples", three say "oranges", 4 say "plums". I want excel to keep track of the three types of fruit when I change them and give me a running number of each.
I have a long list of categories in the column A (seen below). To this list i want to assign keys that will support with further calculations (in a column B).
An example of such a key would be in the case of the given example "ACTION SPORTS" and "FOOTBALL". The whole list of these "keys" hast 17 elements.
It is evident that i will need some kind of a partial match. The one i have found on the internet, limittin itself just on the first or last number of characters wont work.
Would it be possible to select my "key - list" (all 17 of them). Then excel would asign a key, whenver it would find a partial match, matching the key?
Appendix: The Data list (Column A): ACTION SPORTS FTW ACTION SPORTS FTW ACTION SPORTS FTW ACTION SPORTS FTW ACTION SPORTS FTW
I have an issue with some excel spread sheet I am working on.
I am using Macros, Buttons to assign values to a text box.
When I do not protect the worksheet no problems.
When I include my calculation sub into my Worksheet Change module. It sort of works but flashes a lot, and takes about 6 or more seconds.
When I dont include it in the Worksheet change module it doesn't flash and seems to work fine.
When I protect the work sheet, in my code I unprotect it and try to run my code, but it wont go through. I get an error.
Run-Time error '1004': Application-defined or object-defined error
Worksheet Module Option Explicit ' Force the declarations of all variables in this module Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) 'Unprotect
'Call Calculate_Decision If Range("MoreBorrowers") = "Yes" Then Rows("21:27").Hidden = False Else Rows("21:27").Hidden = True End If If Range("GuaranteeYN") = "Yes" Then Rows("159:167").Hidden = False Else Rows("159:167").Hidden = True End If
I have tried adding in the Me. before my Range but nothing seems to work.
I need to count the number of times a value appears in a row and assign a number that tells which occurence of the text it is. For example
Name Address Jim 123 Smith Street Jane 123 Smith Street Bob 543 Apple Street Mary 543 Apple Street
I would like a way to insert a column that puts a 1 next to Jim and a 2 next to Jane, a 1 next to Bob and a 2 next to Mary and so on. Ultimately, I want to sort the list and delete all the twos, thus deleting the duplicate address entry.
I would like to know if I can do a VBA code that takes one formule that is showed as text in one cell (eg '=wood+plastic) to the next cell to really use it... I mean, that one time we define de "wood" valeu and plastic valeu will realize the calcul.
I have a worksheet (WORK1) that contains two columns of values that I can add to or change if necessary. The first column would be a text string (STRING), the second column would be its category (CATEGORY).
Example: STRING CATEGORY Chevron Gas Exxon Gas Vons Groceries McDonalds Hamburger
In a separate workbook (WORK2), I have a column (A) which contains text. Ex:
I am working up a workbook template that will be used to process survey results. The way I ultimatley want it to work is that the user can paste data from another application into a worksheet in Excel, and then view analysed results on a second sheet (which are processed via formulae on a third, hidden sheet).
The problem I have is this: the data from the program that's capturing them are text values. For example, column B contains answers to a question where participants rate an experience, and the values are either "Excellent", "Good", "Fair", "Poor", "Awful". I want these to be converted to numerical values, on a scale where "Excellent" = 5 and "Awful" = 1, so that I can then average these.
So, the question is: Can I somehow tell Excel that "Excellent" = 5 and "Good" = 4 etc, and then use AVERAGE(B:B) on the text data and get a number back?
I did think of having an intermediate sheet that used VLOOKUP to create a copy of the first sheet (where the user pastes the text data) with the text replaced by numbers. But, because I don't know in advance how many rows will contain data (i.e. how many survey results there will be), I have to assume on the high side and copy down 50,000 rows. But, this takes ages to calculate.
I am trying to get a code which searches each row for a keyword, and then assigns a value to it depending on what group of keywords it is.
For example, if the Name or Comment mentions certain fruit keywords, I want it to assign the value: "Fruit", and if it mentions certain vegetable keywords, I want to assign it "Vegetables", and if it is unrelated to either, I want to keep it blank. If the name/comment mentions both fruit and vegetables then I want it to say "Error".
Since the keywords I am using are mostly two letters, I want the search to only search for the two letters on its own, and not as part of a sentence. e.g. if the key word is ED, I don't want it to return a value for "I rested". Instead, I want it to stay blank.
i.e. I want the code to take information from column A and B, and assign a value based on the keywords in column D and E. As an example:
A B C Name Comment Value V1 Eating vegetables are good for you Vegetable null lock out of ep. Fruit S-1 It is JUST Fruit-sp Error
D E Fruit Vegetable EP SW KG SP ST CM BV LP
The formula I used so far is this: where C3 is the first value C3=IF(OR(ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6,A3))),ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$D$2:$D$6,B3)))),"Fruit","")&IF(OR(ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH(Sheet1!$E$2:$E$6,A3))),ISNUMBER(LOOKUP(100,SEARCH($E$2:$E$6,B3)))),"Vegetable","")
In columns D and E I put a leading and trailing space between each word to only search for the keywords themselves, and not as part of a word. (e.g. ST is correct instead of haSTe).
This formula seems to work only for 60% of the information, problems occur when the keyword is at the end of comment sentence: the value is blank. e.g. in row B4 of the table I made above my formula returns a blank.
I will post a rudimentary example: Account Name/Column A Truman school, San Diego Truman school, San Diego Truman school, San francisco Truman school, Atlanta Truman school, Atlanta
In column B, I would like it to assign a unique numeric id based on the TEXT only.
So Truman school, San Diego gets a string of numbers: 1234 Truman school, san fran: 1235 Truman school, Atlanta: 1236
My spreadsheet is about 6,000 records with a great deal of the above situation going on. So school names are identical with different locations assigned. I am trying to import to a database and don't want a lot of duplicate records. That's why I'm trying to assign a numeric value.
i have column with 40.000 entries. I have added to the column entry my ID =B1&"?aid1425". How can i get rid off colum A without effecting column B with the ID?
I am doing an assignment about credit rating and I am trying to make a spread sheet based on Moody's credit rating method.
I have more or less finished my model, but I have one final problem; in the end I will come up with a numeric score, which can be translated into the final rating (Aaa,Aa1 etc.) based on some ranges. I just can not figure out how to formulate the formula, especially because I have no experience working with ranges.
I have tried with some IF formula's, but they seem to be way too long and complex, for what I imagine should be a relatively simple task.
In the attached sheet I have a final value of 6.9, which should give an A3 rating given that it is within the 6.5 - 7.5 range.
I want to assign a value to a cell so that when a word is entered into the cell, it registers with a sum formula at the end of that row. I am trying to rank a group of people based on organization membership. For example...
John Smith gets 30 points for being president of a team, 20 points for being vice pres, 10 for being secretary, etc. There are 10 teams, A-J, I want to be able to just enter the letter of the team into a cell in the column corresponding to the position that John Smith holds.
At the end of Johns Smith's row, i need a sum formula that gives me a numerical value to rank each person based on involvement.
I don't see why I cannot populate the following array The usedvar is an array of letters and I'm trying to build a new array that converts them into ascii.
Code:
Dim usedvar_asc() As Variant, f As Integer, g As Integer, temp_usedvar_asc As Integer Dim temp_usedvar As String For f = 1 To UBound(usedvar) temp_usedvar = usedvar(f) usedvar_asc = Asc(temp_usedvar) Next
how to assign the value of whole row from one sheet to another sheet? Worksheets("Result").Cells(count, 1).Value = Worksheets("Current").Cells(k, 1).Value the above code assign only the specifc cell value. but i need to assign whole row
I am defining ranges for cells in a row by the formula: Set myrange3 = Range("B13", Cells(13, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft)) Set myrange4 = Range("B14", Cells(14, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft)) Set myrange5 = Range("B15", Cells(15, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft)) Set myrange6 = Range("B16", Cells(16, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft)) Set myrange7 = Range("B17", Cells(17, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft)) . . . . . Set myrange62 = Range("B72", Cells(72, Columns.Count).End(xlToLeft))
The last one is 62 assuming data wont go over 62nd line. However, there would be always a room for error if this is done manually. Is there any way, I could assign range variables only till that row which has data
For example The data below shows I only need to define range variables namely myrange1 including cells 2 and 5 till myrange7 of cell values 9 and 6.
A B 2 5 3.4 8 5 12 6 23 77 56 8 7 9 6
The syntax: LastRow = Selection.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell).Row helps by giving the number of the last valid data row, but I am not sure how this might be used if at all in automatically assigning ranges of valid row cells to variables.
Is it possible to assign a name to a range of cells, so that when you insert a formula into another cell you can call that range of cells into the formula?
