I would like to count the number of cells that contain a word. My table looks as follows:
BDL1,500BDL3,135BDL2,1004.31,400254,6001.41144
In Column 1 (left column) I have 3 cells that contain the alphanumeric value "BDL". This would yield a non-numeric count of "3". Column 2 would yield a count of "0". I hope I'm being clear. Anyone hav an idea?
I'm trying to find a way to have excel 2003 format the data I put in a cell to auto insert dashes every five characters. I'm entering product keys for the software we have on hand, and it would be a little quicker if I could simply have excel auto format the data entered in to include dashes every five characters.
Example: - I would enter: D5ATT3D28F6F44536489413E2 (This is a fake, non-working product key, I just typed in random numbers a letters.)
-Excel would format it like: D5ATT-3D28F-6F445-36489-413E2
In column a is the distance in miles and furlongs and yards..sometimes there is only miles..sometimes only miles and furlongs,,sometimes only miles and yards..
I need a formula i can fill down in column b to convert to furlongs in decimal format e.g. 2miles 3 furlongs and 20 yards converts to 19.09 furlongs..
there are 8 furlongs in a mile and 220 yards in a furlong...
I want to have two strings. One called Alpha and One called Num I want to have the alpha-character component to be extracted from the string and set to Alpha and the numerical component to be extracted & set to Num.
How/what is the Excel Macro VB code to accomplish this from within the macro?
I am try to convert a letternumber (both single) to a number, ie 3b to 5, 7a to 17 etc. I am using a vlookup formula at the moment, =VLOOKUP(J3,'Test levels'!$R$4:$S$54,2) but if J3 is 4b it finds 3b and puts in that reference.
I want to take a lot of text fields with alphanumeric characters ie. " '49560-960-A908 " (always beginning with the character " ' ") and display in another cell position 2 thur 6 ie. "49560"
I have a file that contains 3,500 cells with alphanumeric characters...always beginning with ' but I need the 1st 5 numbers after the ' in a second separate column
I was recently issued an alphanumeric range that I would like excel to manage for me. The alphanumeric numbers contain 5 characters. The basic pattern starts zero to nine, then A-Z, then 10. For example, A0500 through A0509, A050A-A050Z, A0510-9, A051A-A051Z, A0520-A0529, etc.
Is there a vba function that can determine that "1B" is > then "1A"? Max only works with numbers apparently, but I know that MS Access' version of Max does this.
I have found a very useful UDF for removing non-alpha characters from strings. (See below, Credit for posting to Stanley D Grom - Ozgrid post ´Removing Non-alpha Characters From Text´).
Option Explicit
Private Function RemoveCharacters(InString As String) As String Dim intLoopCounter As Integer Dim intStringLength As Integer Dim intASCIIVal As Integer intStringLength = Len(InString) InString = LCase(InString) For intLoopCounter = 1 To intStringLength intASCIIVal = Asc(Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1)) If intASCIIVal >= 97 And intASCIIVal <= 122 Then RemoveCharacters = RemoveCharacters + Mid(InString, intLoopCounter, 1) End If Next intLoopCounter End Function
Two requests:
1. Could the UDF be modified such that any part of a string contained within brackets is also removed (e.g. "NLGA High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlgahighstreeten")?
2. Can an argument be added to the format of the UDF, such that numbers (0 to 9) are either included or excluded (e.g. RemoveCharacters(A1,1) where the argument ´1´ would include any numbers (0 to 9), so "NLGA2003 High Street (West-Enfield), EN6" becomes "nlga2003highstreeten6")? ´blank´or ´0´would exclude these numbers, i.e. would return "nlgahighstreeten"
Is there a function in Excel that will count cells that are different from one another? I.e. it would not count the same value twice. For example, in column A:
a a b a b b c a c
The result would be 3. However, if I replaced the first "a" with a "d" I would get 4 as a result. Basically I want to know how many different arguments there are in a list. I could not find a function that does this in the Excel list of functions.
I am now attempting to do the same type tally except I want a tally for "in conference" Wins/Losses.
I tried the same "SUMPRODUCT" formula as before except this time I held the control key down so as to use only the cells desired. I'm getting "VALUE" for my answer though.
The row I have added in for in conference tally is row 3.
All blue colored cells are for the ACC conference and the green are for the SEC.
Is there a way to get the win/loss figures for selected cells / rows only?
I am trying to create a formula to count the # of names up to a certain word. So Cells A1-F1. Are a list of names, the Last name in the list starts with VACANT. How do I create a formula to count the # of names in the list upto the work VACANT? So if VACANT moves to C1 it would decrease the # of names.
I have written some VBA code to to test if there are 8 names within a range (EF5:FH5, these are 8 merged cells, (4x4 cells)), if there is 8 names within the cells, ie not any empty cells, then the coding will add the new staff name to "trigger_box_1b", and if not then "trigger_box_1a". These trigger boxes are then used to populate further cells.
Private Sub Trigger_Box_1_Change() Windows("Admin Skills Matrix.xls").Activate 'puts focus on correct spreadsheet Sheets("Skills Matrix").Select 'puts focus on correct page Select Case WorksheetFunction. CountIf(Range("EF5:FH5"), 0).double Case 0 Trigger_Box_1b.Text = New_Staff_Name Case Else Trigger_Box_1a.Text = New_Staff_Name End Select End Sub
the problems I have be having is that VBA is not recognising the Countif function ("Compile Error: Invalid qualifier", then highlights the Countif). I have tried using a CountA function with the same responce. I have tested the rest of the coding and know that it's working fine (don't think anyone would like to see 75+ pages of VBA coding)
I know this question may have been posted before, but I can not seem to get this to work with my formula. I have a formula to count the values of a column so that I can convert it to a graph. I am giving a value of 1 to cells that contain numbers between 0 and 9.5 and giving a value of 0 to cells that contain numbers greater than 9.5. It works fine except that I have some blank cells that I do not want to get rid of and it is counting those as zeros and giving them a value of one. I want to ignore the blank cells or give them a value of zero.
In my dataset above the cases finish after 12 months (hence why there is a maximum number of cases).
What I am seeking is a method to count along a certain number of cells, then sum the contents of those. For example, I would like to count the contents of up to 12 cells, then sum those 12 cells.
Where it gets difficult is as follows:
- In month 6, I am just counting the contents of 6 cells (months 1-6) - In month 12, I am counting the contents of 12 cells (months 1 -12) - In month 18, I am counting the contents of 12 cells (month 7 - 18)
way to count cells in a spreadsheet (not values in the cells but just the cells themselves). So I have a whole bunch of cells, some are red, some are blue, some are green based on the info i have to keep track of.
so can i write some COUNTIF for red cells green cells, etc
I have attached a spreadsheet with some tele numbers. What i need to do is to find out which column only has 1 telephone number, eg. only a cellphone number, etc. I have aboout 50 000 records that i need to check if only 1 telephone number is available. Can i use the countblank function?
A cell on sheet1 needs to count the number of cells on sheet2 (D3:D31) that has a complete (top, bottom, left and right) border. This is my best shot at it.
[Code] .....
Sheet1 cell I input =CountBrds('sheet2'!D3:D31)
One issue, on sheet2 for example cell D4 is merged with E4 and F4 as is every even cell in the D column down to row 30. Not sure if that throws a wrench in things or not.
I have a large number of customers listed in an excel sheet that may recieve a visit from my organisation. The reason for the visit may vary and sometimes a customer may recieve more than one visit. Each Row (or record) maps to a customer. Each column has a visit type which I insert a date in to say when the customer has been visited.
I am looking for a function that will return if a customer has been visited or not. As dates can be summed like numbers I am currently saying in the "Visits Recieved" column =if(sum of dates (visit type colunm) >0, 1,0) Then I simply sum the column to get my answer of how many csutomers have been visited.
I have a column (within a database) containing hundreds of Project Numbers (e.g., P8763, PA3229, P1090.1, etc.), and the same Project Number can appear more than once in the column. I need to count the number of unique Project Numbers within that column, based on the criteria of another column. Is there a way to do that using a combination of the DCOUNTA function and a formula?
I am trying to write a formula for the following can anyone help please? I have column D with blank cells and some with purchase order numbers in them. I want to count the blank cells in column D but only if the blank is 3days older than the date recorded in column A. Once I have done this I want to count ther same on every work sheet and I have 24 off them and get one answer. This will tell us all the outstanding purchase order older than 3days
I have a Column (G) of dates that is the sum of Column (B) and 6 months. I have conditionally formatted Column (G) to turn RED when overdue Yellow when close and GREEN if more than a month out. At the end of Column (G) I would like for it to add all the "RED" blocks and total them.
Cells in the range of BG8:BP8 either have a "W" or an "L" in them. I want to have cell BO9 display the total number of Ws and cell BP9 to display the total number of Ls.
I'm struggling to work out a formula to do this even though it sounds simple.
I want to count cells in a particular row or column that contain any data, ideally without having to specify a range, so I just want to know that in column C contains x or row 5 contains y amount of data. So it would look at the entire rown or column and work out how many cells contain something and shows how many.
Is there a way to count shaded cells only , I am stranded in a case where I am waiting reply meanwhile I need to self sort myself with another indirect trick
I have a sheet with a bunch of data including dates. I'd like to report out the number of cells that are in a certain month (say January). If I create another column and use =MONTH(A12), I can use COUNTIF(A1:A100,1) to perform this task. This somewhat clunky solution isn't very practicle, becuase I have about 30 column's I'd like to analyze by the date in the column. Is there a more elegant solution where I can incorporate the MONTH(A12) into the COUNTIF equation?
