I tried dragging by the grip in the bottom right hand corner but it changes the first didit only. I tried to put it the numbers in the format
100
101
102
and using a custom format number to put in the extra zeros. This worked fine until I used a countif (or it may of been a lookup) statement in my code to look for 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0100 and it can't find it as the number is 100. Is there away around this that will save me typing in an awful lot of zeros.
I have been working on a spreadsheet but I use autoformat for.
For example if the date in the cell matches today's date then it turns the text read and makes it bold.
I was wondering if there was a way to format several cells in a row if a certain criteria was met.
for example
A B C 1 Item Cost Quantity 2 Car £11,520 2 3 Bike £7,500 1 4 Tyres £50 4
Now for example if I set a condition whereas the quatity is greater than 3 then it would highlight the whole row.
So in the example above I would like to to highlight row 4 and Fill colour cells A4,B4 & C4 with a yellow background and Red Text and make the texted bold.
I am newer here and I want a macro in mentioned title. I have a number in column a2 and in column b2 quantity if in column a2 number is 2101400 and in column b2 i write quantity 50 so said number automatically fill series in column a like mentioned below...
how can you custom a cell format in which you may in type in information that is displayed as ###-##-####-@# I searched everywhere and cannot find this.
For example, a medicare number.
I would need to type in 581566223b6, and it should be displayed as 581-56-2236-B6.
I've been having a problem lately with Excel automatically converting all of the cells on my spreadsheet from standard number format to dates. I've created several spreadsheets for calculations and all the cells in the number formats that I wanted. It's been saved and actually reopened and used several times. I opened it this morning and now half of numbers are now converted to dates. I've had this happen several times on several different spreadsheets. Why is this happening? Is there a setting somewhere that I need to change?
Is there anyway to automatically fill the empty added cell after inserting a row without using the fill handle? For example, for a series of numbers: [URL]
2. Drag the fill handle Selected cell with fill handle across the range that you want to fill.
Or running balance: [URL]
2. Extend the running balance formula into the new rows by selecting the last cell in the balance column and then double-clicking the fill handle.
I have a column in excel which gets populated in the format "2/1/1980" when copied from a different source. I want a macro to run on this column and convert this in the below format. Required format: '02-01-80 (note the ' symbol before 02 which will keep it as text)
I need this macro to run on two columns and replace them with the required format. I can do a find and replace either in the sheet or through hard coding the VBA, but as the date format keeps growing, I would need to do this via code and hence requesting the same.
I'm trying to format the plot area of a X-Y scatter chart in a three colour gradient (Green, Yellow & Red).
The trick is, I would like the green portion to be centred in a user defined place on the plot with the yellow radiating from it, and the red radiating from the yellow. Ideally I would like to define some stops for the green as a user defined shape, with stops for the yellow outside the green stops (like the % stops you get in a vertical or angled gradient, but instead of the stops being simple straight lines or concentric circles from the middle, they would be user defined shapes).
I can do the normal types of gradient, but have no idea how to customise them in this way.
I have a list of 600 unique project IDs in column A. I want to create a second list in Column B that references the contents in Column A, first row then duplicates that item for two subsequent rows, then a formula in the fourth row of Column B a reference to the second project ID in Column A row 2, with two duplicates in the fifth and sixth row.
Column A Row 1 000891.AB Row 2 000892.CD
Need to create: Column B Row 1 000891.AB Row 2 000891.AB Row 3 000891.AB Row 4 000892.CD Row 5 000892.CD Row 6 000892.CD
I copy/paste a good enough information and i like to separate these automated information into different colored rows using keyboard shortcuts. I can't use Conditional Formatting, because i have to investigate each piece of information before I color it a certain color.
For example: Color Purple, Green, And Red
Press Ctrl+1 = Color Purple Press Ctrl+2 = Color Green Press Ctrl+3 = Color Red
I am creating a custom autonumber in excel. The autonumber will be based on the value of another cell's value. So for eg, in cell A1 will look at B1, if B1 has the number 1, A1 will take B1 and add the autonumber to it, eg a, b, c.
If within, b5 the number is 2. So if the number in the corresponding row in b changes, the autonumber must restart.
I've decided to go with a-z for the autonumber as i realized for .1, .2, .3 is limited to 9 values in the list bec. 1.10 may be read as 1.1
I've tried a few options such as creating a named range, however the problem is getting the autonumber to restart.
Below is what i want to achieve via excel formula:
I have created a UDF which determines what the name of the day is.
Public Function Dagnaam(daydate As Date, Optional Language As String = "Dutch") weeknl = Array("Maandag", "Dinsdag", "Woensdag", "Donderdag", "Vrijdag", "Zaterdag", "Zondag") weeken = Array("Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday", "Sunday") dayno = Application.WorksheetFunction.Weekday(daydate, 2) - 1 Select Case Language Case "Dutch" Dagnaam = weeknl(dayno) Case "English" Dagnaam = weeken(dayno) End Select End Function
What i would like is when the user uses this function in the worksheet the field Language holds a dropdown list with predefined languages.
How can I perform a custom autofilter operation on the Column A data shown below that will filter out any cell that does not follow a "#.#.#" format. In other words I only want to see Level 3 paragraph numbers that contain two periods and suppress out all the other levels (variations containing 3 or more periods). I tried the following syntax in the custom aotofilter field with no success - "^#.^#.^#"
I need it to autofill just as if you selected range A1 and A2 and double clicked that little square on the bottom right hand side of the cell (so it stopps auto-filling at the last active cell in B)
I currently have this code ( which works perfect ) that was written by someone else. It performs an auto-fill in column "A".
I need to learn how to adjust this code to do it for other columns, but do not know currently.
Maybe someone could highlight of BOLD the adjustments to direct the code to the column.
Sub fill_rows_A_4() Dim arrTmp As Variant Dim lngRow As Long With Worksheets("sheet1") 'adapt arrTmp = .Range(.Cells(1, 1), .Cells(.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp)) For lngRow = 1 To UBound(arrTmp) If arrTmp(lngRow, 1) = "" Then arrTmp(lngRow, 1) = arrTmp(lngRow - 1, 1) Next .Range(.Cells(1, 1), .Cells(UBound(arrTmp), 1)) = arrTmp End With End Sub
Can this be done automatically in a worksheet using the custom cell format function??.... because then it wud get formatted as necessary whenever someone enters a vehicle no. in that particular column.
I have a sheet which uses a 'Custom Format' in column A, '00000' to give each row a unique reference. Is there any way to do a 'Find' using this format, e.g. 00012, rather than just 12. Searching using '00012' doesn't find the appropriate cell, whereas using '12' does?
I'm having trouble with the leading zeros of my ISBN#s; excel keeps chopping them off. I found a topic that discussed this issue, but it won't work for me.
I can't format them as text because I'm getting them as an isbn with dashes (ie:978-05689-256-7) and when I remove the dashes (even if its formatted as text) excel changes the number to 9780568.9E+12 (or something like that)
I think the solution would be to create a custom format (ie. 0000000000) to preserve the zeros, but I'm having 2 problems:
1. Since the ISBN#'s have 2 different formats (ISBN-10 & ISBN-13) I need to somehow check if the first 3 numbers are 978 then based on that it should be formatted either as ISBN-10 (0000000000) or ISBN-13 (0000000000000)
2. In the post that I linked to above it said that I won't be able to do a vlookup if its custom formatted. Is there any way around this?
I have a column in my sheet which I need to be displayed with dashes.
Excample: 123456 -> 12-235-6 (just an example) But once in a while in the code is a letter like: 123A56 which obviously I need to be displayed like 12-3A5-6
But whatever I do, nothing seems to work. Another cell with Left()-Mid()-Right() is no option for me....
