I have cells on my spreadsheet which contain: =now() and they work as they should - displaying the date and time at the moment of entry. Unfortunately the cells update when other info is added at other locations on the sheet - is there a way to ensure they enter the current 'now' only at the point of initial entry - such that the data doesn't then alter?
View 3 RepliesI am attempting to pick up a date with time entry on a worksheet and place it into a TextBox on a UserForm. Format on the sheet is mm/dd/yyyy h:mm AM/PM. The UserForm is placing the value as mm/dd/yyyy 12:00 AM. here is the
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
If Not Range("dDate").Value = "" Then
TextBox2.Value = Range("dDate").Value
TextBox2.Text = Format(DateValue(TextBox2.Text), "mm/dd/yy h:mm AM/PM")
Else
TextBox2.Value = ""
TextBox2.SetFocus
End If
End Sub
"dDate" is the named range where the date is sitting. The format is also set on the TextBox2 exit event. Can anyone see why only the date portion is being transfered with the default 12:00 AM for no time component of the value?
i type into any cell in row 1 i need the time at that moment to be captured and shown in cell "B". When i type into row 2, the time which i entered the data must be captured into row 2 cell "B".

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am looking for a formula or VBA that will be in each in cells D5:D300 and will look at the value entered into the cell in column C and change the 4 digits into the date and time in the same format as NOW() returns.
Example
2045 becomes 17/02/2012 20:45
But I would also want it to see if the 4 digits that represent the time are after 14:00 and before 00:00 then the date would be the date in cell A1-1
example
Cell A1 18/02/12
2045 becomes 17/02/2012 20:45
Is it possible to have a cell, say B1 - which will return the Time and Date Value of when something is entered into Cell A1?
Example, I type "Hello" in Cell A1.
Now B1 will show me the Time and Date which i typed in Hello into A1.
I need a function that records the time and date in a cell, say a2, when data in entered in to another cell, say a1 in the same spreadsheet.
This way I can tell when data in a cell in my spread sheet is updated.
I am trying to get excel to auto populate the current date and time each time I make an entry, however, each time i make an additional entry the current date and time populates but it changes all the prior entry's with that current date and time.I am trying to keep a log of all the times I make a new entry. Correct formula that will work?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI would like to look at an array and find the largest number. Once that is found, return the text value that is in column B from that row. For example:
Column....A.......B.........C.....D
....................Apple......5.....1
...................Banana.....2.....3
...................Orange.....2.....7
In this example, I would be looking at the array C1:D3. Because the highest value is 7, I want the text "Orange" to be displayed in a new cell such as A5.
To find the largest number, I am using =Large(C1:D3,1). How do I display its' corresponding text value from column B in a new cell?
What I need to do is that I have electrical tools that get tested on a certain date in Column A. I need Column B to look at column A and determine and display in date format the next quarter when test is due.
Practical example: Extension cord got tested on 04/04/12. The next test needs to be conducted on 01/06/12. If the test is overdue and gets conducted on 02/06/12. The column A will change to 02/06/12 and column B should change to 01/09/12 as a result.
The formula I have got to work is
=DATE(YEAR(F2)+IF(MONTH(F2)>9,1,0),CHOOSE(MONTH(F2),4,4,4,7,7,7,10,10,10,1,1,1,),1)
but this makes the quarter dates as APRIL, JULY AND OCTOBER - they need to be MARCH, JUNE, SEPTEMBER
when I change the formula to
=DATE(YEAR(F2)+IF(MONTH(F2)>9,1,0),CHOOSE(MONTH(F2),3,3,3,6,6,6,9,9,9,1,1,1,),1)
The dates work BUT if the following test is undertaken on 01/03/12 the date in Column B does not change to 01/06/12. Why? How do I get it to work?
i have a formula that reads off a single cell at the moment.
=IF(N38="MB","KL","MB") this works fine. I need the this to read off a range of cells from N38 to N43.
I have a very large spreadsheet, a few columns and rows I attach..
in col a we have the time of the event..in column b i have a numerical rank for the
importance of factor 1,in column c i have similiar for factor 2.
What I want is the correlation for each event between col b and col c using the rsq function..i have no problem using this function..but i need the result for each event produced in col d in this same sheet and printed on each row and since I have thousand of rows i need a formula I can fill down
see attached sheet
Is there anyway I would be able to display the current age of majority (19 here at home) in a cell or userform? This would have to be current each day the form or sheet was opened.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have been trying to get this formula to work, and it appears it only works when it wants to and I cannot figure out why. What I'm trying to do: I have a spreadsheet with several columns of data, but I want the formula to read only two entire columns for a specific criteria for each column, then display the most recent date based off the criteria. I do not need to total up the criteria, just display the last date. This is what I have so far: =IF((AND(Sheet2!A:A=B2,Sheet2!B:B="Game: Counter Strike - Source")),MAX(Sheet2!C:C)).
I have this in a table, header as "last date" which is (C2), the B2 in my table would be where criteria would be typed in. So basically, my table should pull the last date from based off the criteria from raw data in sheet2, that is entered in to B2 on sheet1 and is "Game: Counter Strike - Source".
I currently have to display a large amount of data on a separate report. I have a master sheet which has columns and cells linked to another sheet, then a further sheet which has cells linked to the master sheet. The problem I am getting is when I link some of the date columns using a formula in the 3rd sheet, as this is looking at a cell that has another formula in on the other sheet it is displaying a date of 00/01/1900 if the value is zero, is there any easier way of getting the data to just display a blank as this is messing up the database it is being exported
View 9 Replies View RelatedEach time my spreadsheet is modified and saved, I would like the date of this action to appear in a cell. I think this may involve VBA but I'm not sure.
Let's just say, the cell is L54. I am using Excel 2007.
I have loaded a .csv file in which the first column contains date/times, e.g. 01/12/2012 00:00. How do I now tell Excel (2010) that this is in fact a date/time format? If I select one or more of the cells, click on the Number dialog box launcher and try to pick a suitable format tghe cells resolutely refuse to budge from being text (i.e. left-justified, still allows me to edit the 'seconds' component to a number > 60). Also which data type should I be using? The only one that appears to have a full date/time format listed is Custom (not Date or Time).

I am working on a spreadsheet to create a school 'tracking' system based on excel. What I need is that as soon as a box in column B is ticked, a date (TODAY() is entered in column A. That is not so difficult, and I have used the formula in cells in column A:
=IF(ISBLANK(Bx);"";TODAY()), where x is the specific row.
So, keep cell A clear untill something is written in cell B. This works fine.
But, for the purpose I need to keep the TODAY() date fixed after entry. And it need to be erased again if the tickbox in cell B is emptied again. It need then to re-enter a new date after cell B is re-used.
I'm having a problem with data validation. I set an entire column so that it could only be a date between the first date in the list and the current date. I tested a few cells to make sure that it was working the way I wanted and I noticed that it allows a random number like 3 or 5 to be input after row 50. This would create a date in the 1900s. Why is this happening and how can I stop it.
I have tried to make a VBA that would allow me to type in:
10657 and have the VBA to automatically convert that into a timeformat -> 1:06:57.
It works ok as long as the typed number is 4 digits or shorter.
If i type 12345 I would expct to get 1:23:45 but I get 00:00:45

I'm creating a spreadsheet where a test note taker needs to repeatedly enter the date/time code in a column as events occur.
I tried recording a macro that will enter the =now() formula and then copy that over itself with the value but didn't work.
So now I'm thinking I need to just write code that will determine "now", and write that serial value to the next open cell (with care not to overwrite the previous data point). I'd like to execute this with a simple keystroke.
The thought is to start at the top of the column, go down until the next blank cell is reached, insert the time code (can't be a formula that will change but an actual value).
I maintain a class register in Excel to monitor student attendance. The first row shows the date of the class in the form dd-mm.
I need to identify all dates which fall on a Monday and thought that if I custom formatted a new row as "dddd" and enter the formula =DAY(cell ref) into the cells of this new row it would achieve this- I could easily spot the Mondays for the period under review.
What I'm finding, however, is that the formula seems to incorrectly state that 16th September 2008 is a Monday whereas it's actually a Tuesday- utterly bizarre!
I can get a fix simply by modifying the =DAY() formula by adding 1 to my formula [ie =DAY(A1)+1] but am wondering is this a "so called known issue" with Excel or has anyone else come across it? I have never previously come across this and consider myself to be an above average competency level user of the application.

I have a column of values resulting from subtracting a static date and time from the current date and time.
This means it is constantly updating, which makes it impossible to sort.
All my work depends on sorting those values, though.
I import data from a program that exports dates and times as text. I have been successful using "text to columns" to separate the time from the date and then using =text(A1,"00:00")+0 to get the time to show as serial time but I'd love to be able to do the whole date/time string in one step. In cell A1 there is data that is general format and is in this format:
01/01/13 00001
No matter how you try to format it, it is not a date or time. For this project I need the serial number for the date/time. Any formula that will format it as date/time and then allow it to show as a serial date/time?
I have 04/02/08 12:00:01 AM (mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss AM/PM) in text format in a cell. I need to convert this to date/time custom format as given above so that I can make comparisons with NOW() output.
