Define A Cell As Text

Jun 28, 2009

i need to define a cell as text. How can this be done? The reason for this is because if I type 001 in a cell it will automatically turn that into 1. Also this formatting would need to be copyable. So if I copy and paste that cell template and put in say 002 it would still read 002

Using Automated Index Sheet To Summarize Catalog - Extract Text String To Define Cell

Jun 10, 2013

I have a built a catalogue of records for various of my companies assets. Each asset has its own sheet in a work book and I have used a vb macro to include an automatic Index sheet at the front of the book. This takes the names of the various tabs, in the order I have them in the workbook and creates a simple listing in column A as an Index List

What I want to do is to build a summary table to the right of the Index List, pulling in a few of the key data points about the assets into a single table.

To do that I need to be able to extract the text string from the Index List and use it to form part of a cell reference pointing to a specific cell in the relevant individual Asset sheets.

Cell Value To Define VLOOKUP Range?

Feb 26, 2014

is there a simple way to do a vlookup (or any other more appropriate formula) using the value of another cell to define the named range relevant to that lookup.

eg I will have two different ranges for fitness performance levels, each of these will be named "Male" and "Female".

I would like to do a lookup based on a formula as follows: Try this formula. Column letter & Row number are for example only. Array formulas will have curly brackets {} emcompassing the ENTIRE formula. You do not add these, you Enter the formula with Ctrl+Shift+Enter and Excel will add them (details: Array formulas). Many more Excel Formulas  Z100 =vlookup(D4,NAMED RANGE,2,false) 

the Named range would be a value in the same row ie B4 - being Male or Female

so I am hoping for something like Try this formula. Column letter & Row number are for example only. Array formulas will have curly brackets {} emcompassing the ENTIRE formula. You do not add these, you Enter the formula with Ctrl+Shift+Enter and Excel will add them (details: Array formulas). Many more Excel Formulas  Z100  =vlookup(D4,B4.Value,2,false) 

otherwise I could just use an If and do something like: Try this formula. Column letter & Row number are for example only. Array formulas will have curly brackets {} emcompassing the ENTIRE formula. You do not add these, you Enter the formula with Ctrl+Shift+Enter and Excel will add them (details: Array formulas).

Many more Excel Formulas  Z100 =if(B4="Male",vlookup(D4,Male,2,false),vlookup(D4,Female,2,false) )

Dropdown List To Define Name Of Cell Not Value?

Jul 6, 2014

I'm trying to create a drop down list that will define the name of the cell so I can reference it in formulas or codings to change the format of various cells defined by a specific name.

I'm not even sure if I can have multiple cells defined as the same name

I'll be inputting data into cells, and I want the color of the cell to change depending if the data is one of these criteria: 'In Service', 'In Transit', or 'Must Purchase'. I can't just make separate criteria columns to list all the data, because the data is already placed in a specific order. So I want whoever is viewing this to know which entry fits which criteria from the color of the cell.

The only thing I could think of is inputting the cell data value, and a drop down menu to define the cell name. I'll input a conditional formatting function to format based on the defined name criteria.

Two Variables To Define Cell Address

Dec 13, 2006

I have 3 variables right now...

Dim celadr As Range
Dim cLetter As String
Dim avgRow As Integer

and one line of code reads:

celadr = Range(ColumnLetter(LastScoreColumn) & avgRow)

When I mouseover columnletter it shows "H" and when i mouseover avgRow it shows "2"... this info is right but I think the problem may be trying to combine a string and an integer value as a range. How can I do this so that celadr is the range H2?

Define Single Cell Range

Apr 4, 2007

I'm having trouble assigning a range of a single cell using vba. I'm doing this to create charts. Here's the sub containing the problem

Private Sub AddNewSeries(Target As CTarget)
Dim i As Integer
Dim Match As Boolean
Dim rValid, rInvalid As Range
i = 2
Match = False
Do While Match = False
If Sheets("Graph Data").Cells(1, i) = ReportTargetBox.value Then
Match = True
MsgBox ("report name match")
Exit Do
Else: i = i + 1
End If
Loop.....................

This msg box :MsgBox ("Cell Value = " & Sheets("Graph Data").Cells(2, i).value) is working and returning the correct value.

Define Cell To Display Formula Result In?

Jun 5, 2014

I am trying to find a way to display text that is the product of a concatenate function in a defined cell, but not to have the function itself in that cell. Basically, I want to have the below function in cell A1. I want to add a command to it to take the result and display it in cell A2.

=CONCATENATE(C5,"_",'Attachment 3-A'!C9:E9,"_",IF(C5="","",IF(C6="MPL",IF(VLOOKUP(C5,MPL!B:F,5,FALSE)="Lease","Lease_Contributable",
IF(VLOOKUP(C5,MPL!B:F,5,FALSE)="Pre-Lease","Managed_Pre-Lease",
IF(VLOOKUP(C5,MPL!B:F,5,FALSE)="Non-Contributable","Managed_Non-Contributable","Error"))),
IF(VLOOKUP(C5,Sale!B:F,5,FALSE)="Assignable","Lease_Assignable","Managed_Non-Assignable"))))

The reason for this is that I need the cell to be selectable (it is generating a file name that needs to be selected and copied), but I don't want the code behind it to be seen. I can't find a way to make the cell selectable AND hide the formula from being seen when the cell is selected. This is because our people keep copying the formula rather than the resulting text.

I was hoping for something like a DISPLAYIN(target) function, but it doesn't seem to exist.

Find Cell Addresses To Define Match Array

Jul 17, 2009

= IF(AND(MATCH($B8, [AXS.xls]Sheet1!$E$1:$E$400,0) - 2 = $C8,
INDEX([AXS.xls]Sheet1!$B$1:$B$400, MATCH(CX$2, INDEX([AXS.xls]Sheet1!$B:$B, $C8 + 16):INDEX([AXS.xls]Sheet1!$B:$B, $C9), 0) ) ),
INDEX([AXS.xls]Sheet1!$A$1:$E$400, MATCH(CX$2, INDEX([AXS.xls]Sheet1!$B:$B, $C8 + 16):INDEX([AXS.xls]Sheet1!$B:$B, $C9), 0), 3), " ")

i have this formula, and i think it will work if i find a way to correct the blue areas. they are trying to define the match array. i tried using the address and cell functions with no luck. i just want the array to return something like B2:B15 (from the AXS sheet) so the match function works. in the current sheet, C8 and C9 have values that refer to rows in the AXS sheet

IF And OR Statement (populate A Cell Based On Which Number Meets The Criteria I Define)

Dec 26, 2008

I am trying to populate a cell based on which number meets the criteria I define. This is based on sales revenue, so if the revenue is less than $6.5M, I want to use a certain value. If the value is equal to $6.5M but less than $8M I want to use another value and finally if the revenue is greater than $8M i want to use another value. Here's my formula, but it returns $0.

=IF(B2<6500000,Bonuses!J45)*OR((B2>6500000)*AND(B2<8000000),Bonuses!F45)*OR(B2>=8000000,Bonuses!B45)

Use Cell Value To Define Cell Reference

Sep 18, 2007

I want to define a cell range using a fixed column letter and then row numbers that are held as values in the spreadsheet somewhere. So for example I want to enter a formula = SUM(A4:A35). The problem is that the ranges I want to define are irregular and the row numbers I need have been calculated elsewhere in the spreadsheet. Say the number 4 is contained in cell B35 and the number 35 is contained in cell C35. So I want to say something like =SUM(A"plus number taken from cell B35":A"plus number taken from cell C35")

Define Value Between Two Dates?

Sep 23, 2012

1. I am entering the prices of a hotel. And the hotel has different prices in different periods.

For ex: 03/07/212 - 04/06/21 128$

I don't want to define it as an array in Sheet1. I want to enter start date A1 and end date to A2 and the price A3. And to the next column next period definition and so on...

2. After I define all dates like this when I will create a date array at Sheet2 in A column, I need a formula to make excel call the values to column B automatically to the proper dates.

Define Name Question

May 13, 2009

I created three large formula that together give me the nested if limit if I try to put it all in one cell. Therefore I defined a name for each formula and then created another formula using the names =IF

(Facil_Move,less_25_Miles,Greater_25_Miles) my problem is the cell with this formula will only display answers from the last portion of the formula. I want it to display each answer as the various conditions are met. So it should be an answer for "Facil_Move" or "Less_25_Miles" etc.

Define A Time Range

Jan 21, 2010

I have two columns containg the arrival and departure hours of workers. From these columns I must define the workshift by specifiyng the time range for each shift. AZ contain the arrival hours while BA the departure.

The formula I use doesn't return the results correctly because some shifts are almost the same. i.e: if shift one starts (arrival hours) between 05:00 and ends at 12:59 and shift 1-2 starts at 08:00 and ends at 23:59 then it will go with the first shift even though the times in range belong second shift.
