View 4 RepliesI have a worksheet in which one particular cell contains a certain formula. For security reasons, I wish to hide the FORMULA contained in the cell. However, the VALUE of the cell given by the above formula should always remain displayed for the user.
I want this to be done only for that particular cell. I tried hiding the formula bar,but it hides it for all cells.
I am trying to get the list of all files contained within a directory and have them displayed in a confirmation box, listed one beneath the other (as a column, each file name in a new row).

Cell B2 contains a date in the format of Dec 08, so if this date contains Dec, then return "Ensure Journal is Non Reversing", if it doesn't then leave the cell blank.
At the moment it is putting in the first test for every month I select and not changing to blank.
What is the simplest way to do it in VBA?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a folder with 8 files which have different names like John-s, Joe-K, Mary-j,....
There are 14 sheets in each file. One of the sheets in the files named Daily contain information in Range A5:G16 that I need to import from all 8 files into a separate file called Import.
I have the following data (as below).
Basically I want to check if a value is in AC but not AD, I would like to mark it as such in column AE i.e. mark all datevalues in column AD that aren't in column AC.
Could anyone please help with the required formula?.....
I want to create a formula (preferably w/o macros) to insert the sheet name in a cell. In other words, if the worksheet name is "Location1", then cell A1 result in that worksheet would be "Location1" based on a formula that pulls it from the sheet name.
I found a post that ONLY does this for the current sheet:
=RIGHT(CELL("filename"),LEN(CELL("filename"))-FIND("]",CELL("filename")))
However, the sheet name is not frozen with it's sheet name when you switch sheets. I will have many sheets in the workbook.
I am having trouble writing a simple macro that can display the name of the worksheet (Sheet2) in a cell (Cell B2 of Sheet1).
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("B2").Value = Worksheets("Sheet2").Name
End Sub
I have some problem with conditional formatting, basically what I'd like to do is color the cells, based on the value contained in one specific cell. I'm not able to make a formula that suits my job.
Basically I want to color code a cell if the value in a specified cell is between x and y.
I've attached a sample spreasheet: MrExcel.xlsx
Need to trimming certain information contained in 1 cell and putting them each in a column. I could do left, mid & right but this time there is inconsistency in the content of the cell.
I've attached a file which will further give you an idea exactly what I want (formula to be in Column M to P).
I've built (but not completed) a spreadsheet used to organize multiple Bill of Material lists. This list is a row-by row list of products with information relating to a specific part number including: Mfg, Part#, Qty Used, Cost Ea, Vendor, among many more.
Here's what I'm trying to accomplish first. As this list grows, my intension is the be able to recall a row of data (or control what columns of the row are recalled) from this list and be able to easily add them to the list. I would like to be able to do this by typing in data in one cell in the row (like the Part#), and then have a macro or VB code that will automatically fill in a defined number of columns with the descriptive data like: Mfg, Cost Ea, Vendor, etc.
Currently, the data for the rows (if it already exists) would reside higher up in the list on the same worksheet but could also potentially be on another tab in the workbook.
I've been trying without success to hyperlink a shape in one workbook that refers to a website contained in a second workbook cell.
The hyperlinked shape is in the current workbook and the website address is in a workbook called "data source.xlsx", sheet 1, cell A1.
My last attempt was this - ('C:UsersLouiseDocumentsMA[data source.xlsx]Sheet1'!A1)
When I type a formula into a cell, it disapates into the answer. Eg: I type =100/2 into the cell. When I press enter and go back to the cell, the answer is displayed in the cell and in the formula bar. That is, it looks as if I typed in (hard coded) the cell as 50.

The numbers of reference to match are the 'zones' in H3 and J2.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a problem where I am linking data from two worksheets say: worksheet 1: A1 = 10, A2 = 20 worksheet 2: A1 = =Sheet1!A1, A2 = =Sheet1!A2
I have filled this formula through a certain number of cells on sheet 2 so that if i add more data to sheet1 it will appear in the appropriate place on sheet2. Is it possible to show the formula results in the formula bar, i.e. sheet2: A1=10, A2=20, such that i can used 'Find' or 'Autofilter' on the cell values rather than the formula?
I want to display the formula in the adjacent box to where it is actually used. Would anyone happen to know how to get that done? Example:
If cell A1 contains the following formula: A1+ A2
I want cell A2 to show : '= A1+A2'
I built a formula but I need it to display the cell reference (column letter
& row number), not TRUE or FALSE, of the cell(s) that matches the criterias.
I have provided the formula to demonstrate what I'm trying to do.
=IF(--($F17="B")--($F17="D")--($F17="RS")*AND($M17="no",$O17="no"),"cell
reference")
The cell reference should indicate the cell in column "$F" along with the
row number.
Just yesterday when I opened my excel file, all the cells that contains formulas does not display the results (leaving the cell blank).
For example the formula for cell A1 is =B5. But after putting a value in cell B5, cell A1 is still blank.
Say, the cell's reference is A1, I want the value of the cell to be A1. If I'm in BB12, I want the value of the cell to be BB12

I have a quick question regarding this simple code thats been drviing me nuts. There x distinct pieces of Data in the range speciifed, but when i run this code, the reply posted in cell H1 is 1, instead of x.
Eventually the code will be built to check if the result is odd or even and then add an entry into the first blank cell if the result is odd.
How do I capture a formula from a cell? I want to create a macro that takes each reference (let's say 'B4') and changes it to if(B4=0,0,B4).
View 8 Replies View RelatedI wrote an IF AND formular to display "Yes" for a cell with zero. but when the cell is also empty, it still returns a "Yes" instead of empty.
this is the formular:
=IF(J2=3,"Yes",IF(AND(E2="",I2=0),"Yes","No"))
when I2 = 0 it returns Yes
Also with I2 = "", it still returns "Yes" instead of "No"
is it possible to have a formula that will look for keywords and display the cell content?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.
I have a workbook with 4 worksheet that store different type of data. It also has a userform that load at start of the application which is to search the data in the workbook. The userform has a combobox where the names of the sheets are stored. when the user selects say Sheet2 in the combobox, it enables the relevant textboxes on the userform and activates the worksheet at the change event. The userform has a search button that searches all the worksheets based on the text entered in a textbox.
The problem: how to search based on 1 textbox. What I want is: say for e.g the end-user selects sheet2 from the combobox, this intern enables 4 textboxes (Name, DOB, Nationality, ID #) on the userform. The end-user should have the liberty to enter data in 1 and/or any of the textboxes. The search should be performed, that if data is only in 1 of any of textboxes then give all rows that fit that criteria and display in a temp worksheet. if say the name and dob is filled by the user than what matches both should be displayed in a temp worksheet. if say dob, name and ID# given so the search button should narrow down to fit all 3 criteria and then display result in temp worksheet. As if mentioned data can be entered in either just 1 or any or all textboxes.
E.g. the worksheet is (Columns are Name, Nationality, DOB, ID#)
row 1 = name: Steven Martin, DOB: 27-may-1993, Nationality: Trinidad & Tobago, ID #: 1234567
row 2 = name: Gary Richards, DOB: 2-FEB-1993, Nationality: British, ID #: 456789
row 3 = name: David Cohen, DOB: 27-May 1993, Nationality: American, ID #: 98765
row 4 = name: Roberto McDonalds, DOB 21-Jul-1962, Nationality: British, ID # 654321
row 5= name: Gary Richards, DOB: 01-Dec-1978, Nationality: Australian, ID # 1234567
Now if the user enters only name as "Gary Richards" and search then row 2 and 5 should be displayed in a temp worksheet. if user enters name Roberto McDonald and ID# 1234567 then it should not display anything. if user enters DOB 27-may-1993 and nationality British and ID # 1234567 then as well shouldn't display anything and should a msgbox "no data found".
In range B4:M4 some cells contain values and some are blank. I am trying to write a formula that will omit the blank values and just give me the nonblank values. The code below returns the FIRST nonblank value, but I can't seem to figure out how to drag it across a row to get the others. I want to ensure that the numbers stay in the same order (so no largest/smallest formulas), but the blank cell values need to be removed.
This would then need to be repeated for (B5:M5, B6:M6, ETC).

If the addition of two cells (a1 and b1) do not add up to more than 10 then I would like cell c1 to display the word FAIL
I've tried the following
If (a1 + b1 ) < 11 then c1 = "FAIL"
But it doesn't like it
I need to build a formula to have one cell display multiple options depending on a value in another box.
If Value is >x and <x display Y
Details:
Cell D5 Holds a dollar amount. E5 is where the calculation will happen. Logically i need it to do the following exactly:
If D5 is between 5000 and 9999, display 75. If D5 is between 10000 and 14999 display 150. If D5 is between 15000 and 19999 display 200. If D5 is >20000 display 250.
The following are on a sheet:
A1 = 5700
B1 = 235
C1 = 17:14
D1 = 5922
$E$1 = 09:01
$F$1= 3
$E$1 and $F$1 are (the only) absolutes/constants.
A2 contains the following:
=IF(A1>D1,B1,IF(A1+B1<D1,"d",IF(AND(C1<$E$1,B1<$F$1),"",B1))))
This translates as:
=IF(5700>5922,235,IF(5700+235<5922,"d",IF(AND(7:14<09:01,235<3),"",235))))
The result is a variable/number (235), "d" or a blank cell ("").
This formula is in a column and works fine where there are numbers in corresponding cells. The problem arises with corresponding cells which appear blank (show no values) but contain references to other cells: they result in a "d" when nothing should be displayed.
So while a corresponding blank cell is correct if it shows no values, it gives me this problem - I don't want "d" or anything.
