I have 2 worksheets - Data & Reference.
in Reference worksheet, have 2 columns - Cards & State
* Cards column contains a listed points which will be added from time to time. The points can either be a word or part of a sentence etc.
* State column contain various general category
in Data worksheet, have 2 main columns - Remarks & Refs.
* Remarks column contains all sorts of data. The rows can be more or can be less day by day.
* Refs column will auto refer to specific reference.

I have a start page in the beginning of my excel workbook. This is where i want to assign a macro to a search button. I want the macro to search the entire workbook but only in a certain block on each worksheet.
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 have this search function that works well: =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("which is < ",E9)),"test ok", "not ok") my E9 cell contains the phase: "I have a number which is < 9, and which is positive..." E9 has "which is < ", then i get back "test ok"
My question is.... how can I do this multiple times within the same function/cell. i.e. if I wanted to search "which is < " and/or "positive" in the same cell, then i get back "test ok", "positive number") I keep trying all combinations to no avail, like: =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("which is < ",E9)),"test ok", "not ok"), =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("positive",E9)),"positive number", "no good")
Keep in mind I am using a numeric example, although I am using this function to check if part of a cell matches specific text...
Is there any excel-addin which offers function in which you could search any excel function (not just formula) so that you could access any function in a seconds, just like google desktop search for windows.
Right now you could use quick access for most common functions you use and shortcuts for functions in different group. But if there is universal search for all the functions, it is going to be faster for any access!
I came across a userform which was perfect for my needs, as I only had to create additional fields, which I did and have attached. However, since I have more than 10 fields, I was getting an error with respect to the listbox function, where it stated that the list property could not be found. I gathered from the searches I did, that this is the max limit for this particular function. I have been unsuccessful in finding a solution, partly because I don't know very much and I'm not understanding how to incorporate some of these solutions into the vba code. I've created simple userforms before, but this one is a little more advanced than my current capabilities.
I am doing a Regular Expression search on a string variable assigned to the HTML content of a Wikipedia search. However I am currently manually going to Wikipedia, searching for the term, saving the html page, opening the saved page with Notepad and then copying the content into a cell.
Can the above process be automated with VBA, how to assign the html content of a Wikipedia search to a string variable.
I have an excel file with a large amount of employee data in it and want to create a search facility that will run on variable search functions and display the information on the screen
I want to be able to enter variable search functions as follows:
Employee Number; shows all information on employee Division: shows all employees in division (possible from a list of all divisions) Appraisal Eligibility : Applicable shows all the applicable employees Job Role: shows all the employees with the same job role (possibly from a drop-list of all roles)
I know its easier in Access, but all records in Excel as a legacy and don't have time to create an access database currently.
I have a large excel sheet that will take a lot of time grouping it manually, so I was wondering if there was some way somebody could help me out with creating a code in VB to automate this grouping for me. All I would need is something to read through the rows of one column and when it finds a blank row, keep scanning until the next blank row and then group the data between the two blank rows. I have attached a small portion of the excel sheet I am working with if you need to get a visual of what I am needing.
I have a monthly report that I get with lab tests and amounts ordered. (I will copy a section for you to see). The Director wants it to be compiled into an easy to read, 1 test with totals. The way i get the data is broken down by site (we have 5). So, i may have between 1-5 rows of the same test with a total for each. I want to set up a Macro/Script that would go through the report and automatically add the same test codes together. My long term goal is to have it pull the Test Number, Test Name and Total Count into a separate worksheet, with the Total Count being the count of all the same tests.
I have a spreadsheet that deals with expiration dates. The whole sheet is conditional formatted so that when the current date is within 3days of the date showing in A2 then that cell changes colors. Ok is it possible that a script can be written so that when the cell changes colors... (Someone is going to think I am silly asking this but) excel sends an automated Email?
I m trying to achieve is generating ref numbers automatically.
I have attached an example.
In Cell A if the user choose yes it gives a ref number. The trouble im having is that say in cell A5 a Yes is choosen at a later date, it will throw the numbers out of order and the ref numbers get mixed up, there any way of stopping this from happening or any function that prevents this from happening
I have been trying to create a macro that would create a schedule for me based on date and a product type. In columns K-N I have an IF statement that tells when a shipment would need to arrive in a row that corresponds with a date (column A is 1/1/2015 - 12/31/2015). On the next page I would like to generate a schedule that lists the dates that all of the products are needed in chronological order. I've tried to use custom functions like finding the nth_occurence but it just gets way too messy with so many shipments.
im having trouble formatting the left header, im not sure how to go about it, ive recorded macros to see how they do because i dont need talking marks im buggering it up somewhere
Sub OCHeader()
Dim Sheet As String
Sheet = ActiveSheet.Name
With ActiveSheet.PageSetup .LeftHeader = _ "&""Trebuchet MS,Bold""&11" .LeftHeader = Sheet End With
I keep a spreadsheet with the 50 or so wireless phones in our "lab". When someone checks them out, the rules are that they change the cell under Available to "NO" and add their user ID. When they return the device, they change the Available cell back to "YES". What I want is a log of who checked out the device, and when... which would be kept in "sheet 2".
I attached a small spreadsheet with the same columns and information you would see in the regular spread sheet. Sorry, I would rather have put it here, but I couldn't figure out how to do that.
The spreadsheet has code which updates the "Counter" when someone checks out a device. Many thanks to the "Rocket Scientist" who helped me with that.
I am attempting to automatically (once a week) pull down the data from this site (http://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/esc/oe/plan...bidsum_csv.php) which is posted in a csv and parse it. While this may seem to be a simple process, the people who posted the CSV did not take into account that there are dollar values in the data in the millions and billions. As a result, a normal comma parse does not work since it splits the values.
Making an excel program that will automatically Email 5 people with either the whole document, a link to the doc, or just an email using the cells to inform them on what needs to be checked. And I don't even know where to start.
There will be a spreadsheet with everyone's name going down in column A, and then in the row next to the name it'll have a date of when they were put on it. It'll then have another date of the time they need to have done certain things, like see the doctor or get a class done, so when the current date reaches the date in the column the cell that is the same date will turn red, and the document will be mailed to 5 of the higher ups to inform them they need to check on this Marine to see if he has accomplished whatever task has expired.
Ive been trying to research a lot of this on my own, but ran into problem where the current outlook version does not suppose the command DATE within an excel, so I need to make a database using multiple excel sheets using Visual Basic(or so I'm told now).
I am having trouble trying to get an MS Access Query to run from MS Excel automatically.
I am trying to create an automated trigger in MS Excel that will automatically run my Access query by the times I specify in my statement.
For example: I need to run a query in Access at 9am, 12 pm and 10pm, that's it, but I believe I need to do it via Excel, I don't want the data returned to Excel, I just want Excel to execute the query at those specific times!
find the attached file there is a form which i have created to update a data sheet, there are some fields in the Sheet which are there is the form, but what i want is in the form once i enter the data in first 2 to 4 fields 7th and 8 th, 9th ,10 th fields should updated based on some formulas given for caluclations:
See attached file: i want the following fields to get updated automatically
1) Tripcode should get updated as CONCATENATE of Cab type and trip type ( See Sheet "ATT" for formula i have mentioned)
2) Trip cost is based on trip if trip code is TTA then some value or if tripcode is TTB some value like that...
formula i have used in the sheet is...:- IF(J3="TTA","750")+IF(J3="TTB","700")+IF(J3="TTC","650")+IF(J3="TSA","750")+IF(J3="TSB","700")+IF(J3="TSC","650")+IF(J3="TQA","750")+IF(J3="TQB","700")+IF(J3="TQC","650")
3) Extra Kms Cost is field Extra Kms * 5(Some Value)
I use daily an Excel workbook that comprises 6 sheets. The first sheet has some very clever vba which at the click of a button converts the data in it to an xml file. I have looked through this vba and have on occasions, modified it slightly, sometimes successfully, sometimes not!! This is what I am wanting to do...... At the moment my data is entered into a different sheet in the workbook. This is because there is also additional information on this sheet that is not required on sheet 1. When a row in this sheet is completed the part of the row that is required is copy and pasted to the next available row on sheet 1. I then go back to where it was copied from and fill that row in a different colour to show me that it has been 'processed'
Although Sheet 1 is capable of 500 rows (set in the vba), I always produce my xml file from it when I get 20 rows of data. So, what I would like to do is be able to click a button, or a key press to:- copy part of a row of sheet 2. paste that into the next available row in sheet 1 ( upto a max of 20 rows)change the complete row of the copied data in sheet 2 to a different colour (preferably 'fill')
I have to maintain changing data in a date of the month format. However, a portion of the data is on an A/B week basis. The data I am maintaining is static data (MAWB in the example below) that is hand-entered each Friday for the following week.
I've got a list of 50,000 book titles in one column, with thousands of sets of between 2 to 5 duplicate titles. The second column has one unique summary per set of duplicate titles. I want to duplicate this summary to the remaining duplicate titles of the set (their 2nd column cells are blank). The third column describes the general condition of each book, and the fourth the asking price. I have been manually copying and pasting, but this is very time consuming. Is there a simple routine that can do this?
I have attached a work book that has 3 sheets. Basicly I have 2 columns of records on sheet 3 that may or may not match Sheet1 has one set of those records. If on sheet3 the records in each row to not match I want a Comment added to that row on sheet one with the opposite value. I have make Comments to walk you thru want I would like on the workbook and have made and example comment of row3
I am aware of the following topic in the VBA Help file:
"Using Microsoft Excel Worksheet Functions in Visual Basic You can use most Microsoft Excel worksheet functions in your Visual Basic statements. To see a list of the worksheet functions you can use, see List of Worksheet Functions Available to Visual Basic.
Note Some worksheet functions aren’t useful in Visual Basic. For example, the Concatenate function isn’t needed because in Visual Basic you can use the & operator to join multiple text values."
And I'm aware of how to call Excel funcitons from within VBA; e.g., answer = Application.WorksheetFunction.Min(myRange)
However, not only are some Excel functions not useful; the fact is they cannot be used because VBA has a native function that does exactly the same thing and you have to use that native VBA function to achieve your goal. It is these overlapping functions that I am especially interested in. I want to know what I should use directly in VBA and what I need to go to Excel for.
I import into my website a standard .csv file that contains product details from my supplier. Columns contain info such as RRP, Wholesale Price etc and rows for each product. For some reason thats only known to my supplier the text descriptions of each of the products are held on a seperate .txt file, in a separate folder with the .txt filename recorded one of the columns cells, one for each product. There are 1000's of products, each with its own .txt file such as 38675.txt, 37828.txt. As you can imagine to copy and paste into each products cell or to manually import each .txt will take the rest of my life.
how I could automate the input of the diferent .txt contents into the required cells.
I have an excel sheet where automatically live data comes in.
When the cells reach a certain value the value in cell R1 becomes 1.
I want to make a macro in vba that sends me ONE email if the value becomes 1.
I tried :
Public Function MailS(mailtrigger As Double) As Double If mailtrigger = 1 Then Call makeandsendemail Application.Run "makeandsendemail" MailS = 1 Else MailS = 1 End If End Function
