Determining The Relative Magnitude Of Value In An Array
Dec 31, 2009
I have a column of values 2000 rows deep, and in separate column would like to determine the relative magnitude of any given value compared to the rest of the values in the column. So for example, if the highest value is 23.3, the number that would be returned is 1 (meaning this is the max value), if the lowest value is 12.4 the number that would be returend is 2000 (meaning this is the min value); if the value is the 12th highest, then the the number that would be returned would be 12 and so on.
I'd like to search for a specific value like (1) in an array of cells like (A:A). The result needs to be the average number of a different column (B:B) in the same row as the searched value (1). And the resulting number should be rounded up to the nearest 10.
Example below: (Find value = 1 in A:A) ... 1 is found 4 times.
In the example above there are 4 (1's) found. By adding all the values in column (B) of the same row, we get 295+400+354+400 = 1449, dividing that in 4, the average is 362.25, rounding that up to the nearest 10... THE RESULT I'M LOOKING FOR IS: 370
I want to know is there any way to arrange bars in the chart with respect to their magnitude (ascending or descending) without making changes in the source data?
I've got four tables with negative and positive values and want to determine the largest magnitude of a subset of four values within those four tables. In other words if the largest magnitude is negative I want the negative value of the four subsets or vise-versa.
I've tried the following but got an error stating it was too long:
Here, In April, July and August, there is a sharp increase (>10%), while in September and November, there is a steep decline (>10%). I would like to format the sharp increases as Green, while sharp declines as red.
Can I do it using conditional formatting?
I know I can attain this by creating a separate row for Month/Month growth in above example. But this example is a simplified version of my data. Real data is a lot more complex, and I need to do the formatting without creating any additional columns/rows.
I have a document in which I am trying to determine the length of time between a start date & time and a finish date & time. The format of the time/date cells is
mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss
Basically, I am just subtracting the first cell from the second. This works fine as long as both dates are in the same day, such as
the ELAPSED cell fills with ######## with a tooltip stating that "dates and times that are negative or too large display as ######." The actual result in this example should be 1:03:07.
How do I get consistency amongst my resulting formulas?
I am trying to figure out a simple formula on determining class for students according to their achievement /grades. There are 9 classes altogether ( 7A, 7B, 7C, 7D, 7E, 7F, 7G, 7H and 7J). There are three columns for subject ( MATHS, ENGLISH, SCIENCE). So lets say the student get Grade A, A , A : The student will belong to Class 7A.
My question is about determining whether or not a particular letter is uppercase.
I've written code that reads from a text file one character at a time. And I know that the following determines if each character is equal to the letter "a".
I am trying set up my spreadsheet so that when a number is put into one column. The next column is filled with a number that will correspond to the other number specified from a range of data.
Distance Sheet no.
55
68
93
135
186
So in the sheet No. column I want it to read the number in the Distance and put in the Corresponding sheet number.
So if:
Sheet 1 is : a distance of 1 though 20 Sheet 2 is : a distance of 20 though 40 Sheet 3 is : a distance of 40 though 60 Sheet 4 is : a distance of 60 though 80 Sheet 5 is : a distance of 80 though 100 Sheet 6 is : a distance of 100 though 120 Sheet 7 is : a distance of 120 though 140 Sheet 8 is : a distance of 140 though 160 Sheet 9 is : a distance of 160 though 180 Sheet 10 is : a distance of 180 though 200
How can this be automated without writing a ton of nested if statements.
This is an example but in reality I have 29 "sheets" with different ranges to separate.
I have about 20 files with check posting dates stretched over several years. Maybe a million checks total. The company uses 13 four week periods each year, not a calendar month/year. I need to look up each posting date and attach the correct period to it.
I could do a VLOOKUP with one row for each day of the year, but that would require 2 x 365 row's for just two years. There must be a more elegant way, maybe using an array or some IF statement.
Attached is a sample file, xlsx, with the perior/year info and sample posting date info. Can someone point me in the right direction so that I end up with the correct period/year in column 'C' for the applicable posting date?
There are a lot of worksheets with a lot of similar data from which I have to determine the threshold. So if possible I would like to create a macro.
I want to know the threshold value when Y=2.
The threshold can be between different Input Values (=Stimulus Intensity (µA)). For example: the threshold of amp P2-N1 & P3-N3 lies somewhere between 200 and 252µA. The threshold of P1-N1 lies somewhere between 318 and 400µA.
Is it possible to determine the threshold value with a formula?
The table I'm trying to query contains the beginning and end date the data is effective. The end date seems to always be either 27 or 34 (4 or 5 weeks) after the start date.
This is the table I'm trying to query:
[URL]
I want to have it query the whole history going back 2 years, and be refreshable by other users on demand.
If I put in dates that do not match up exactly with the start/end dates they have set, I get something like this:
[URL]
I've got a plan of how to approach the data extract, but how can I determine whether or not the web query found a specific table (and should therefore try a different date offset)?
I am putting together a spreadsheet and I want to loop through a series of columns (G to L let's say) and in those columns I want to look at a range of rows (4 to 17 let's say). And if that range has no values in it, I want to hide that column and then move on to the next column. I am having a bit of trouble figuring out how to determine if the range is blank and then building that into a loop.
I've recorded a macro that selects a bunch of cells so I can work with them. However, it's hard-coded to the bottom cell of H1551, and I need it to work no matter how large the range is.
Code: ''' Concatenate column H with B & F Application.Goto Reference:="R2C8" ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=CONCATENATE(RC[-6],"" "",RC[-2])"
I have a situation where I have a column with 10 numbers in it... say A1 - A10 each contain an equation that will solve to a numerical value. If one of these does not solve and gives me a "#VALUE!" response, how do I tell a function to look for that? I'm specifically attempting to use Match to find it, in this case "=MATCH("0",A1:A10,0)".
I am tracking attendance of individuals in an Excel spreadsheet. I would like to determine how many consecutive days each individual has attended. The spreadsheet has two pertinent columns which contain the individual's name and the date of attendance. How can I determine the number of consecutive days of attendance?
I have a spreadsheet with a variable number of xlButtonControl type form controls. The actual number of buttons depends on the amount of data that the spreadsheet is being asked to summarise. All the button controls use the ".OnAction" property to point execution on click to a common procedure.
Unfortunately that much is what it is and is beyond my control, so I just have to work with that.
What I would like to know is if there is a property or method I can access from within the common OnAction procedure that enable me to identify which button was pressed. If this was a CommandBar environment I would use the ActionControl property. Since it's not, and since I can't change it (not even to use ActiveX controls!), does anyone know an equivalent that I can use in this case?
I have set the default in Excel to move across to the next cell after I press Enter. This is fine for most workbooks but I have a particular workbook in which it would be preferable (save keystrokes) for the cursor to move down one cell. Is it possible to have one action as the default but another for a particular workbook?
I have a list of data that is the day of the month(1-31) that an event has occurred. (sample data in attachment) I want to find some way to find when the "hottest" time of the month is when the events are occuring.
how to get the end result. I think for myself a chart of some sort would be good to see visually, or some kind of statistical breakdown.
My only requirement is that the list is always being added to, so the end result needs to be updating with the complete list.
Im not an expert in excel, so the more details on how to do this the better. Even better would be creating it in the attachment, and uploading your version so I can see exactly how you did it.
I am going to be taking this idea and apply it in the same way for day of week (1-7) and time of day.
