I need to convert data from long to wide form but I haven't been able to do it. I want to try and avoid using vba because I have exactly 5 hours of experience with it, but if there is no other way I will just have to learn it quick.
View 4 RepliesSuppose I have numerical data in Excel within the following columns: Column A: ID, Column B: Amount1, Column C: Amount2, Column D: Amount3 (the column headers are in the first row of the file). So in my Excel file, the first couple of rows of data would look like this:
ID Amt1 Amt2 Amt3
40 7.2 4.6 9.7
80 3.4 6.7 1.3
I want to transpose the data so that there is only one amount per row of data (the data should look like the example below):
40 Amt1 7.2
40 Amt2 4.6
40 Amt3 9.7
80 Amt1 3.4
80 Amt1 6.7
80 Amt3 1.3
This is pretty simple to do using proc transpose in SAS, but was wondering if it was possible to do this "wide" to "long" data manipulation in Excel as well (or even Access if easier to do there)?
Attached is a copy of my data and i want to find the mode of each months data without typing it out into long hand form, eg. 111122222333344444 etc. so i believe the answer will be some where around 5 for most of them, but i just don't know a formular to show it automatically on the spread sheet.

The problem is the two ways the data can be exported (shown as option A & B below) is very cumbersome and I can't work out how to create a simple line chart (like the second image) from that raw data. [URL]
What I want to do is turn this data into something like this [URL]
The only way I can think of is to convert/transpose the data into something like below. The problem is I don't know where to begin in trying to do that automatically.

I work with a lot of time based worksheets for a 24/7 operation and constantly use the formula:
=IF($E17>$D17,(HOUR($E17)+(MINUTE($E17)/60))-(HOUR($D17)+(MINUTE($D17)/60)),((HOUR($E17)+24)+(MINUTE($E17)/60))-(HOUR($D17)+(MINUTE($D17)/60)))
to calculate times worked where $D17 is start time and $E17 is finish time. Shifts can start and finish the same day ($E17>$D17) or go past midnight ($D17>$E17).
To make matters even more interesting, there are a number of variables that require adding either "and" and/or "or" conditions to this formula so I can end up with several of these nested and it gets pretty complicated.
I'd like to have a UDF so I can just enter the formula:
=CalcTime(Start Time,Finish Time)
I am working on putting together a very large spreadsheet covering multiple data sets over multiple states/years. I am trying to convert the data that I have in one spreadsheet (that is arranged like the example below) and make it so that I can paste the data into another spreadsheet as one single row: i.e, 1,651 would follow in the column to the right in the same row as 6.4 and so on. Right now I am having to copy and paste row by row and it is going to take me years.

I'm doing the website for my company and things have to be entered into the site via spreadsheets. I have a list of numbers
e.g. 3652, 2845, 50925, 4809, 18392
that need to have the spaces removed in order for them to work.
e.g. 3652,2845,50925,4809,18392
There are over 500 cells with multiple numbers in each, so I don't want to do it one at a time, and rightly so, because Excel keeps changing the format and giving me something like
3.6*10^30 and loses all my commas.
Is there an easier way?

I am trying to create a form to use as a golf tracker. I basically have created a scorecard where I input the date, score, fairways in regulation, greens in regulation and putts. I want to be able to put that information just like if it was a scorecard and then have a button that says submit. Then that information is output into individual sheets (i.e. one for scores, one for fairways, one for greens and one for putts).
I'm missing something in my UserForm initialization code. If I fill the form out once and click 'OK' (run the code to put the form data into a sheet), when I go back into the form all the old info is still there. If I then click 'Cancel' (Unload Me) and reopen the form, the old data is cleared out. What am I missing to make it clear it out the first time?

I am creating a rather large system that is as OOP as I am able to with VBA (Please let the next version of VBA use .NET!).
I have created an ErrorHandler object that deals with all logic/user errors and I have decided to include runtime errors in it's scope as well.
Now I have an object function to catch all errors as such:
Public Function CatchAll(E As ErrObject)
Select Case E.Number
Case xxx
...
Case Else
MsgBox E.Number & ": " & E.Description & vbCrLf & E.Source
End Select
End Function
Now I have added the following to every single procedure and function in my application, and have realised how ridiculous it is.
On Error Goto ErrorHandling
...
ErrorHandling:
ErrorHandler.Catchall Err
Is there a way to add a single global ErrorHandling statement somewhere in my code that will be called whenever an error is raised?
Perhaps in my main module that fires all code, can I put a small procedure that will handle the errors? Or as a function in my ErrorHandler class that I call on initialisation?
I have created a registration workbook for this year's youth sports league. All of the information is entered into a User Form and separated onto it's appropriate sheet designated by the child's age. Next year, I would like to use this year's workbook to look up returning players.
Will it be possible to add a "lookup" button into my form, or create a lookup program, that once the registrar clicks on the correct player, the information is plugged into the User Form, the registrar adjusts the age and any necessary info, presses enter, and the information is copied into the appropriate category in the new workbook? I haven't worked with User Forms long enough to know if they can be filled in that way, but if this can be done, you are the people who would know.
I am looking to write 'conditional format' to only highlight cells that are 2 greater than the cell in the previous column.

I have a sheet with data 7 columns wide and up to 1500 rows long. Below are a few lines from the sheet. The data from the sheet is grouped into "months" as shown in the header down the first column, "Show June, 2013..." and "Show July, 2013...", and so on. Is there a way I can make Excel re-align the data into ONE long row of data for each month? Each new month row must be "triggered" by the text (like the word "Show") because the actual cell number of where the new month begins may change with new updates. I want to do this because I plan to refresh the data once at the end of each day from the web and apply the new data to the "next" row of data. So eventually, I can have a history of "Last" values I can chart for each "strike" for each month.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to create hundreds of named ranges going down a single sheet.
The name of the first range is in cell a1 and is 13 columns wide and 7 columns high (a1:m7)
The next name is in a8 and the range is a8:m14 and so fourth
If it's easier on a separate sheet I can have a list of names I want in column A and then the cells they refer to in column B.
E.g.
A B
Range1 Sheet1!A1:M7
Range2 Sheet1!A8:M14
Range3 Sheet1!A15:M21
Column L14 - L47 is not very wide on my spreadsheet because I wanted the whole sheet to be in view when you look at it on the screen. But there will be times when the user needs to put quite a bit of information in there. The cell will let you keep typing as long as you want, but if you don't have any information in the cell to the left of it, then the information spills over into those cells.
I don't like the look of that. Is it possible to make the cell automatically populate a drop down type box if the information is longer than the cell. Then have the cell display normal when you click out of it, whith a little arrow in the bottom right hand corner of the cell to tell the user that there is more information in that cell, they just have to click on it.
I am using a userform and i have added some data to listboxes but it comes as being too long when it is only one character. I checked in properties to change the settings and tried to change everything but it doesnt work.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have several fields in a row that contain names of files e.g. 123.xlsx. Some fields will contain file names that will be duplicates of each other and some will be blank entries (although the blank entries can be changed to a value such as 'n/a' or 'no' etc if required).
I require only the non duplicate values to appear in the final cell, each separated with ';'.
My data is in row 2 of a spreadsheet and in every other column (A,C,E,G,I,K,M...for 45 instances in total).
I have used the following formula to identify the unique values (example below for the first four cells):
=A2&IF(C2=A2,"",","&C2)&IF(OR(E2=A2,E2=C2),"",","&E2)&IF(OR(G2=A2,G2=C2,G2=E2),"",","&G2)
This works well and if there are several blank entries then I use a SUBSTITUTE function to change the multiple ',,,,' to a single ';'. So I only see the unique file names in the final cell, separated with ';'.
However, the above formula becomes longer and longer when each cell is added to it. I have over 40 cells that need to be added and I wondered if there was a better way of doing this?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a google earth KML file that I have converted to text, and through a bunch of manipulation have been able to pull a series of GPS coordinate strings into a single cell string. Unfortunately, the string data is beyond what excel 2007 can handle for a single cell. so my thought is to have excel pull each coordinate string into a separate cell with which i can then run a macro to develop a new KML dynamically. (changing multiple attributes based on a query to a database)
Each string of coords actually maps out a single region (path) on the KML, truth be told it is telecom rate center data, and each rate center will have numerous other variables applied to it depending on my company's voice network capability for a given rate center. Currently my only desire is to depict differently any rate centers that I'm able to deliver VOIP services to by showing them in a different color...but these change very often so it will support to be able to auto generate the map from time to time.
the raw data from the KML looks like this:
Code:
CLINTONVL
RATE_CNTRCLINTONVL

After doing my data import, i extracted via various manipulations, the rate center name (a common lookup value that stays constant across multiple databases), and the string of coordinates. this is where i run into trouble. i need to pull each coord into a separate cell assuming i won't run out of cells in the x coordinates to gather this data OR find a way to grab the data via another lookup to another document...not desireable.
I want my output to look like:

11 Name
12 Address

19 Name
20 Address ... and so on
Where there may be one or two blank rows between the individual records and where there may or may not be a Fax number (or row) in the record.
I am trying to convert this data to a horizontal column format - which works fine if I do a copy/paste special/transpose. However I have to do this for 1,800 records and cannot figure out how to do this reliably.
I gave the above illustration to simplify but, actually this is a two column spreadsheet with individual row labels for every record using the above terminology. In other words the above text is in the first column and the data is in the second. Just thought I'd mention in case there was a way to do some kind of if/then formula.
