I am trying to display some text based on another value
This is what i am trying to achieve
Conditional formatting (Refers to range(O3-P6)
=U3="A/L" (Then Display A/L in the cell)
=U3="SICK" (Then Display SICK in the cell)
=U3="OTHER" (Then Display OTHER in the cell)
We are working on having the spreadsheet display the correct options, depending on what criteria are chosen. There are three choices in the first criteria and two choices in the second criteria. These choices are presented using data validation so they will always be formatted correctly. Worked on conditional formatting to display results but did not make much progress. Started working on "if" statements to display results, looks like this may not be efficient. Spent a lot of time reading, trying to find a solution.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to display result of risk assessment matrix in excel. I have three columns PROBABILITY , IMPACT and RISK RATING (probability *impact).
Probability = Very Low(1), Low(2), Medium (3), High (4), Very High (5)
Impact = Low(1), Medium(2), High(3)
Risk Rating = Low (value between 1 -3), Medium (value between 4 - 6), High (value between 7 - 15)
Is there any way that I just use TEXT in the cell (visible to user) and excel does its magic in the background using the numbers that I have for each TEXT? I don't want to display numbers.
I have some dynamic named ranges in sheet1, and in sheet2 I have data validation dropdown list which has the names of all the DNR's in it.
What I want it to do (in sheet3, no less) is for the user to be able to pick a named range from the dropdown list, and have a particular column in sheet3 then display that entire named range.
I have made a 'data' worksheet which is the source for the data validation in sheet2. Each item in the list identically matches the name of each of the named ranges. I was hoping to be able to use some form of =INDIRECT but alas, no such luck.
So it's almost like a copy and paste function I'm after, where:
If you pick "Schedule_From" out of the DD-list, then DNR 'Schedule_From' is what is pasted in Column B in Sheet3.
DON'T want to use a PivotTable.

I am trying to auto-populate text in cells in area A, based on data I enter into other cells in area B. I want the area A cells to be for display only, as all editing will be done in area B. The problem is: how do I do this such that the text I write does not get cut off if is longer than the column width? See the attached document for a clear example and description of what I am trying to do...

I want to know how to display part of a cells text value, inside another cell.
Suppose in cell A1 i have "20-Jun-14"
How would I get cell B2 to display just "Jun"?
I have a column of locations where all the locations start with 'SHIP TO - ' followed my the actual location which can be of varying lengths. How can I display everything after the 'SHIP TO - ' in an adjacent column. My instinct is to use a RIGHT Function, but I don't know how to get that to only display the variable length text after the 'SHIP TO - ', e.g. in another column I want this
SHIP TO - ABC COMPANY
SHIP TO - A VERY LONG LOCATION
SHIP TO - HERE
to show
ABC COMPANY
A VERY LONG LOCATION
HERE

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to hide/display text by using form fields. I swiped the idea from a spreadsheet I obtained from a vendor and thought I would extend it to suit my purpose.
When I check the box for "table one", I'd like for the data that I have associated with it to display. When I uncheck the box, I would like for that data to be hidden. The goal is to be able to choose one data source and see at a glance which fields come from that source and what their names are. The formulas that currently exist for the cells in column I do a nice job of putting text in a field when the box is checked, but I don't want to have to rewrite the formula in the cell if/when the source of the data changes. It's a lot of long schema/table/field names. Maybe that's the only way, though...
I scrubbed and mocked up column J to try to demonstrate. It's sorta color coded.
And it might be that using form fields is not the best way to hide/display text based on source type.
irst Problem:
I need a little help with the same employee time sheet that I am working on in Excel 2007. I have a dropdown box in Cell E1 that lets the employee select their name. Example, if the choices in the drop down are: Smith, John Jones, Paul Nelson, Bob and Hall, Bill. So the names are Last Name, First Name. Once the employee chooses their name, I would like Cell G1 to display "Hello (E1). Welcome to AA Company." (where E1 is the employee's name but First Name Last Name - so it is reverse order of the choices in the dropdown). If E1 is left blank, I would like Cell G1 to display "Hello. Welcome to AA Company."

1. Search an excel sheet "column" for a particular type of text and insert values based on that text (if found) in another column.
e.g I have column A1 to A10 with different types of text. I would like to search for the keyword "Risk is high" OR "Risk=High" for each cell in the column and insert a "1" if found beside it's corresponding "B" column. If not found, I would like to insert a "0".
So, if the text "Risk is high" OR "Risk=High" was only found in A6, I would like B6 to be "1". Rest of the values in the B column would be "0's", since the text was not found in any of the other cells.

I am working with Excel 2000
If cell D4 has a 90 or above, I want cell C4 to highlight in green, but I also want the cell to display the word green. I know how to do the former, but the latter perplexes me a bit.
I am making a list in excel and there are multiple cells where I want the user or customer to fill in their information. For example, In C2, the customer is supposed to enter the name in. How I can put text in this cell that will automatically disappear once they start editing the cell?
i.e. [Manual Entry]
I'm trying to avoid using merged cells or text wrapping with altered row height to display some text in multiple rows - similar to using centre across selection to have a header across multiple columns without merging. The guys that use the sheet type a comment that is relevant to five rows and the easy solution here would be to just type the first portion of the comment in the first row (about 30 characters will display in the column width available), then put the next 30 characters in the next row and so on but the guys keep getting lazy and merging the cells so they can type the comments more easily. I can lock the sheet or force validation but I think there's a better solution.
I can effectively "wrap" the text across the five rows the header is relevant to by using a formula to pick up everything except the first 30 characters of each cell. Ie if they type whatever they want in cell B16 then I can use this formula to break it in to 30 character lengths to "wrap" it in to the next four rows:
=IF(LEN(B17)>30,RIGHT(B17,(LEN(B17)-30)),""),
And I'm sure it would be easy enough to use search with the formula to break it where there is a space in the text so partial words don't flow over.
BUT because the text ends up slightly different widths I want to use formats to force only 30 characters to display (whilst keeping the remainder of the text string intact). I can't figure out the syntax to format only 30 text characters to display but you can easily do it with numbers and dates and so on.
I have a list of numbers I want to display horizontally instead of vertically. Is there a simple way to do this other than retyping each number?
My worksheet is attached.
Without using a copy/paste macro, is there a way to display the text and its formatting from another cell? Obviously, the usual formula "= A2" only brings the text from that cell. Example:
A3: un-am-big-u-ous
G4: = A3 (but I want the font formatting used here as well)
I am trying to nest a formula with IF & AND to work out a RAG status. I have 2 questions per row (in Columns I:J) which will be answered either Yes or No. For each combination I need to give a RAG status in Column K – e.g. two Yes replies give Green, 2 No replies give no and one No out of 2 will give Amber

Yes---Yes---G
Yes---No----A
No----Yes---A
No----No----R
