Cell Is Showing Function String

Feb 8, 2007

The following concatenate function was working, then mysteriously stopped. When working it returned the data that I requested, now if I click on any concatenated cell and hit enter I get the function string, see below.

='Input DATA'!C2&" "&'Input DATA'!B2&" "&'Input DATA'!F2

InputData is my tab that is being referenced. All other functions/formulas are working as designed. The data in the referenced cells is still there and I changed from text to number to general, etc but I still get the same result.

Instead Of Showing Figures For MAXIMUM Function, I Want To Show The Name Of The Row

Dec 16, 2008

Normally, when we use the =MAX() function, figures / numbers will appear. Is there any formula that can show the row the highest data is in? Let's just say that the figure is 3080 and it is under 'Transportation' row. Generally, when I apply =MAX() fx, 3080 will appear. Is it possible for it to show Transportation by using formula instead?

Change Current Cell Value If Number String NOT Letter String?

Apr 7, 2014

In sheet1 I have a simple database consisting of 5 columns of data

Column A : Name ie James Jones
Column B : payroll number ie 123456
Column C : shift times ie 1245-2124
Column D : job title ie floor
Column E : comments ie A/L or 0600-1500

what I would like is some code that will go down Column E and if a 'time string' ie 1300-2130 is found then copy this string and paste into corresponding value in column C. If a text string is found ie A/L or Sick or anything like this then ignore and move onto next cell, loop this until all cells in column E have been checked.

String Value Sum Function Vba

Jan 26, 2007

I have a Sum function in a cell on a spreadsheet and a bit of code which checks it using an If statement. If the Sum equals 1 (100%) it should do one thing, if not do another. However, if I put in the If statement that the Sum cell value should equal 1, it doesn't work. If I put it should equal "1", it does work. Why?

Example that works:

If Range("LocalBirthTypes").Value <> "1" Then
MsgBox "To use your own data the split between the birth types must total 100%", vbExclamation, "Maternity service planning tool"
Goto Exiting
End If

Example that doesn't work:

If Range("LocalBirthTypes").Value <> 1 Then
MsgBox "To use your own data the split between the birth types must total 100%", vbExclamation, "Maternity service planning tool"
Goto Exiting
End If

Looking Up Cell Data And Showing Results From Adjoining Cell?

Jan 9, 2014

I would like to be able to enter the data into the grey cells and then have the yellow cells auto generate a result. The only problem is that the required value in cell B5 is from when the entered value in B4 is looked up in the table, rounded UP to the next highest value and then the answer from the next cell.

So, if I enter in B4 a value of 500, a lookup is made in the table and the next highest value would be 553 with the correct answer shown in B5 being 13.

Looking For A Function To Add Continious String

Oct 19, 2009

I am trying to make a function to take 3 Cells and using the initial Cell(say A1 with value of 100) as the inital value of a sum. Take Cell two(say A2 with value of 10) and add the value of A1 to Value of A2 in a constant increase. In otherwords A1+A2*A3= next increase. A3 is the value I want to change. But I want to add these values together as many times as the value of A3. so with current numbers will be 100+110+120+130+140 with A3 being a value of 5.

MID Function Formula String Extract

Cell A1 contains 012345678 ** Customer of 987654321 **
Cell B2 contains 087654321

My formula =MID(A1,FIND("of",A1)+2,10) works perfect if it has a "customer of...". How to revise my formula that when it gets to cell B2 and if there is no "** Customer of ..." it would leave it blank or zero rather than #Value!?

Convert String To Object Or Function

Apr 11, 2007

I do not know if this is possible in VBA, but I am hoping it is as it will make my life much easier.

Is it possible to say have a TextBox and a CommandButton, that does the following?

Public Sub Execute()

Dim ObjectName As String
Dim Object As Object

ObjectName = txtObject.Text
Set Object = ObjectName

Object.Execute

End Sub

Or to take it a step further:

Public Sub Execute()

Dim ObjectName As String
Dim FunctionName As String
Dim Object As Object

ObjectName = txtObject.Text
FunctionName = txtFunction.Text
Set Object = ObjectName

Object.FunctionName

End Sub

Are there any inbuilt functions that will create/reference an object based on a string containing the name of the object or function?

String Parsing Formula/Function

Apr 10, 2008

I have a series of codes, such as:

xxx-xxx-xx/xy-xxx
yy-yy-yy/yz
zzz-zz/za-zz/za-zzz

The /'s represent variations on the same code, so the first one is shorthand for:

xxx-xxx-xx-xxx
xxx-xxx-xy-xxx

I would like to be able to split the code into a new line (or lines) wherever a / occurs.

There are any number of dashes and slashes within the code, however, there are none at the beginning or end of the code.

The slashes will be always surronded by dashes eg xxx-xx/xy-xxx.

VBA Function - Extract Number(s) In String

Dec 3, 2009

My knowledge of functions is pretty limited, or negligible to be honest. I require a function to extract numbers from each cell in a selected range.

Eg.

cells contain the following data:

cell 1: xxxxxx 45,59
cell 2: x xxxxx xx 6,45,27
cell 3: x xxxx 28

were x represents text

I need to loop through each cell and extract each of the numbers and list them in a separate range. If applied to the above range of cells the function would show the below in the ouput range. Each number in its own cell.

6
27
28
45
45
59

Length Of String Changes When Passed To Function

Sep 28, 2006

The following afterupdate procedure for my txtStart1 text box sends the value to the FormatTimeValue function that is coded in a module.

Private Sub txtStart1_AfterUpdate()
MsgBox Len(Trim(Me.txtStart1.vaue)) '<= outputs 1
Me.txtStart1.Value = FormatTimeValue(Trim(Me.txtStart1.Value))
End Sub

As you can see from the bolded text, the length of the value is 1 when outputted from the forms code.

However, when I pass it to the following function in a module it outputs 2 as the length.

Function FormatTimeValue(vTarget As Integer) As String

Dim TimeStr As String

If IsNumeric(vTarget) Then

MsgBox Len(vTarget) '<= outputs 2

Select Case Len(vTarget)

Case 1 ' e.g., user entered 1 so time should be 01:00
TimeStr = "0" & vTarget & ":00"
