I have 2 formulas which I want to combine into a single formula.
Both are correct and work in isolation, but when I attempt to combine them, the syntax is incorrect.
Here is the first:
=IF($C$31="YES","YES","NO")
The formula is dependent on a single user selection from a drop down list. If the user selects YES, the cell in which the formula resides displays YES, otherwise NO.Here is the second:
I am creating an electronic timesheet. I have created drop downs for times of the day, which then automatically calculates the number of hours worked based on the times selected. The trouble I am having is, I also need to incorporate "Vacation", "Sick Day", etc into the drop down box where the time of day is located.
The sheet works great until someone selects a non-time related answer, such as "Vacation". When this option is selected, the cell that is supposed to contain the number of hours worked says #VALUE! when I, in fact, need it to list a value of 0 for the number of hours worked. Any idea on how to combine my formula =(D6-D5)*24+(D8-D7)*24+(D10-D9)*24 with an IF statement that will automatically assign a value of 0 if a text answer is selected from the drop down?
i am trying to achieve old products on a database that we no longer have any stock of and we haven't sold since a specific date. I am having probems with an "=if(and" formula. At least i thin it is an equals if and formula that i need.
Basically i need to say the following:
=if(Stock quantity column = 0 and the date field is <= 31/12/2005 then "Delete" or "Keep")
I need help with a formula so that I can create a single chart or (more likely) multiple charts for each of the choices in column C.
Attached is a sample of my spreadsheet. I want to be able to break out each of the "Br#"(A) associated with the "BUM"(C) and graph each of the choices in column D (Run Time).
I am sure I can create the chart I need once I get the formula created to pull the data I am trying to combine. I hope that I have explained this well enough.
I'm currently using the following formula to return either a "PAST DUE" or "DUE" value in a particular cell based on the date entered in the cell in the previous column.
However, if the reference cell is blank the formula automatically triggers to put in "PAST DUE" as the value. I would like to modify this formula so if the reference cell is blank that this cell will also remain blank. I've tried a few different options, but I'm getting an "too many arguments" error on what I've tried.
I received assistance from NBVC for combining data from two cells. Post http://www.excelforum.com/showthread.php?p=2135144. I need to convert the formula into macro code. I thought I would be able to convert it on my own, but running into some troubles with run time errors. Here is the Excel formula, which is working fine.
I have a HUGE spreadsheet (1,000,000 rows) that contains a series of reports. The first row of the report contains all of the report identification numbers. The next 20-50 rows contains the report details, all in column A. Then the report ends with a cell in column A containing "[report_end]" and then on the next row the next report begins.
I would like to compress the report details all into a single cell in column A so that there is only one row for each report, sort of like this:
AA | BB | CC | DD xyz 123 [end_report] AA | BB | CC | DD xyz 123 [end_report]
becomes:
AA xyz 123 [end_report] | BB | CC | DD AA xyz 123 [end_report] | BB | CC | DD
I have about 20 choices I'd like a user to select from and have the text output to a single cell.
Just create a Data Validation List? Yeah, but that only allows you to select ONE of the items in the list -- I want to select as few as zero and as many as all 20, combining the resulting text into a single string - space or comma delimited.
My first thought was checkboxes, but all I can seem to figure out is how to get ONE of the results into the cell, meaning I'm better off with the Data Validation List because it's easier.
Especially since I need to repeat this for as many as 200 or 300 lines,
I am trying to combine sheets from various workbooks into a single file named "Combine". The goal is to have the sheets in Combine indicating their origin.
For example, with: "File_1" having 2 sheets, "Sheet1" and "Sheet2" "File_2" having 1 sheet, "Sheet1" the goal is to have a file "Combine-forum" with the sheets named: "Sheet1(File_1)", "Sheet2(File_1)", "Sheet1(File_2)"
I have grabbed pieces of code from various sources and read on the forums, but the result is different from what I want; I don't succeed to add the file name to the sheet name. Instead of the file name, the second part of the sheet name appears to be the order in which the workbook have been opened.
To be clearer, what I get is: "Sheet1(1)", "Sheet2(1)", "Sheet1(2)"
Attachments: To_be_combined.zip 3 compressed files to be combined. I suggest to copy them in C:TEMP and to copy this path in the InputBox (see below). Combine-forum.xlsm Best working file that I have been able to create
I have a set of related variables that are split over multiple worksheets, and I need to be able to take specific information, duplicate certain values and produce an output sheet for use in a separate piece of software.
The variables are: Position Number (Sheet 1) Position Title (Sheets 1 and 2) Position Requirement (Sheet 2) Requirement Importance (Sheet 2)
The output sheet requires a list of all the requirements for each position number, which means the position number itself needs duplicating (in new rows) X number of times, where X is the number of requirements assigned. The appropriate requirements are then to be pasted in next to each position number (and the requirements can be found by comparing position number to title, and from title to requirements).
Normally, Id be able to do this using lookups and so forth, but my problem arises when I have multiple position numbers with the same related title (in the attached example, there are three plumbers with unique position numbers). I cant figure out how to say to Excel a plumber has five requirements, and there are three plumbers, so duplicate each position number for each plumber five times, then insert the appropriate qualifications (and their associated importance values) next to the position numbers.
I come from a (procedural) programming background, where we perform operations step by step. I tend to use intermediate calculation columns, with only 1 or 2 calculations per formula, or, failing that, use a UDF. I find this easier to debug and maintain.
The solutions I see tend to give the result in one formula. This reminds me of the functional progamming languages I used years ago. I'd like your opinions on what is best-practice, or common practice, in relation to constructing formulas, so that I can improve my development.
- insert LR if AB5 is less than 20; - insert C if AB5 is less than 30 but more than 25; - if neither of the above is true, insert CLEAR if T5 contains something and if not insert B-T1-F10 if AB5 is between 240 and 40 and AA5 = 1.
The problem I have is that the B-T1-F10 is not being inserted where the other criteria are not met so I think I have not integrated the statements correctly?
I am looking for an excel formula that will allow me to perform the following logic: if a cell value in (M3:BA3)="D" then multiply C29 by the corresponding value in (M29:BA29), then sum all of the products.
I am creating a spreadsheet for inventory use. I want to have a running total in (1) cell based upon a new/different number being entered into a different cell.
Column B, Row 1 (This will be a new/different number entered every day - inventory in or out, so positive or negative number) Column D, Row 1 (This will be a running total based on numbers inserted in previous 2 columns)
Basically what I have is a key inventory. So there is column A with key number, B should be keys IN, C should be keys OUT, or ideally B would be IN and OUT meaning, for inventory IN input a positive number and for inventory OUT input a negative number, and D Should be total.
Column E represents number of keys currently in the inventory. I was going to hide the current inventory column so all you see is IN/OUT and total. So what I need is to be able to just come in and type in a number in the IN and/or OUT column, without having to add/subtract it with the number already in that column.
Bottom line, I'd like to be able to use IN and/or OUT columns to just type in numbers as they come and not have to worry about what's already in those columns and get correct total number.
To calculate the result for a month is easy, but I can't figure how to get a single cell formula to calculate for the year. The sample attached explains it better.
formula to separate information in a single cell into multiple columns. I have hundreds of rows of data, so a formula to quickly separate the information into individual columns would be good. Below are a few lines of data.

I am trying to get a formula to work where it will search a single cell (on a sheet called "Calls") to see if a particular code is in there, if so return a value using HLOOKUP from a table on a sheet called "Values". The problem I am having is how to use the wild card etc because everything I have tried returns an error...
The code I am trying (Without wild cards, because they all failed) is...
I'm trying to condense a table of calculations down to a single array formula, but am getting stuck on one piece of it.
The table data is very simple, and can be in just two columns:
1, value 2, value 3, value 4, value 5, value
Where 1 thru 5 are time periods, and values are various numbers.
I want to perform the GammaDist function on each value. It requires a time period input, and in this case it is the 1 thru 5 in the table. So at the end of period 5, the formula for the first value would be
=Gammadist(5,x,y,TRUE) (x,y values not important here)
and the formula for the second value would be:
=Gammadist(4,x,y,TRUE)
The only thing that changes is the period number.
So, my goal is to write an array formula that will sum the GammaDist for each of the 5 rows, for all timeperiods (which is 5 in this case)
I can get this far:
={SUM(B1:B5*GAMMADIST(ROWS(1:5)-1,C1,C2,TRUE))}
But this passes 1 thru 5 to all rows, I only want 1 thru 5 passed to row 1, 1 to 4 passed to row 2, etc.
I'd like to apply multiple formula to a set of cells on a summary page. My summary page also contains 3 variable dropdowns, and I'd like to display data based on the text selected in those dropdowns (pulling data from 2nd tab "Variables")
The following formula works in the first instance:
=IF(AND(H4="Product Type A1", H6="External", H8="Existing"), Variables!C4, 0)
What I'm struggling to do is add additional formula to the same cell in order to deal with the remaining eventualities of the drop down variables:
Variable 1: Product Type A1 Product Type A2 Product Type B1 Product Type B2
I've got a "Date" Column which has every day of every month, and next to that several columns with different types of data to correspond to a particular date.
To simplify this (because there are TONS of dates), I've made another "Date" column that displays only every 5th day. Now what I'd like to do of course is average the corresponding data over five days.
I don't know how to write a single formula that I can copy down that will do this.
I've attached a sample spreadsheet with only one month's data, the stuff I need a formula / code for is in red
I'm looking for a way for Excel to combine formulas together into a more compact form for me.
Attached is a very simple version of what I want, my actual formulas are very complex but I'd still like a way to have them automatically combined into a single cell.
Alternatively, what is a good way to break down a very complicated one-cell formula and still keep things organized?
Here is the one-cell version of a formula I work with.
[Code] .......
That formula is difficult to work with in one cell, so on another sheet I have it broken down into parts so that if one part isn't doing what I want I can change it. This takes up a LOT of space because of the other steps I do (the above formula is just one step) and I'd like to combine it together.

I need to count the unique items in a range that don't contain the string "option". I would like not to use VBA for that but I can't make it work with a simple formula.
For now, I have :
[Code] ......
That doesn't count the cell with the content "option" and count correctly the other unique items. However I need to ignore any cell that contains the string "option" (with wildcards).
