Displays Date In Actual Cell Value

Apr 3, 2009

I discovered the following Macro (on another site). What I'm attempting to do is make data entry simple by entering a date such as 012209 and have a macro convert the entry to 01/22/09 as a legitimate date field. On entering 012209, the macro displays a value of 09/01/2021 with an actual cell value of 1/9/2021. I expected a value of 01/22/09.

Entering 010109 displays a value of 01/01/2009 with an actual cell value of 1/1/2009. I expected a value of 01/01/09 (I can live with this, just didn't expect a 4 digit year).

Date Displays As ####

Jul 29, 2006

I have one more question, for now... I am imputing a date into a cell that is too narrow for the date, so the cell outputs xxxxxxx. How can I get around this without changing the cell width.

Convert Date As Text To Actual Date

Jan 22, 2009

I've been sent a spreadsheet in which one column represents dates, but they have been entered as plain text, MM/DD/YYYY (ie 12/31/2008). I ultimately need to import this as a CSV into a program that only understands dates in the format DD/MM/YYYY.

I'd ideally like excel to recognise this field as containing dates, but I can't figure out how to do that, or even how to swap the days and months around as text. I'm using 2007.

Date Serial Number To Actual Date

Nov 30, 2007

I have a macro which copies the values from one cell to another. But, while copying the macro changes the date format to a serial number and this doesnot happen all the times. Below is the code I have. I want the macro to automatically convert the date from from serial number to dd/mm/yyyy. I tried quite a different ways, but none of them seems to work. Below is the macro I run to copy the contents from one cell to another.

Sub History()
'
' Macro: Backup results from prior rounds. Please run this macro after selecting the cell where the backup is to be done.
'
cur_row = ActiveCell.Row
If ActiveCell.Offset(-(cur_row - 10), 0).Value <> "History" Then
MsgBox ("Check whether the active cell is the designated history cell. History operation failed")
Exit Sub
Else
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 & ActiveCell.Offset(0, -5).Value & " "..........................

Date 1/0/1900 Displays Instead Of Blank

Feb 8, 2009

The result of my formula should be blank, but 1/1/1900 appears instead and I can't get rid of it. Does anyone know why or how to fix. I can't just change the font color as it screws up other formulas.

=IF(ISNA((VLOOKUP(VendorTracking!$P10,LeadTimeVlookup,2,FALSE))),"",VLOOKUP(VendorTracking!$P10,LeadTimeVlookup,2,FALSE))

In this case the Vlookup is referring to an apparently blank cell with no formula in it. I googled 1/0/1900 and saw a few references that said formatting a cell with zero in it as a date would cause this result, but there is no zero in this case.

Text Date To Actual Date?

Nov 26, 2013

I inport date into excel and the dates come in APR/13, however excel does not sort or treat the imported dates as actual dates. if I select the cell it will change the data to 13-Apr-2013...however I want it to be the 1st of the month.

Via a formula how can I change the text from APR/13 to 1-Apr-13, so that excel will sort and treat the value as a date?

Increase A Cell Value By 1 If Another Displays "yes&quo

Apr 2, 2007

I'm a novice at macros and spreadsheets and a Visual Basic Virgin!!.

I'm trying to work out how to increase a cell (B17) value from 1 through 5 then jump back to 1 and count to 5 again etc etc.

The value should be incremented every time cell B33 ="Yes" however there needs to be a 2nd event which resets the B33 trigger to operate again.
This is when cell B34 shows "New Race"

Cell Displays Formula Instead Of Result

Nov 6, 2007

=K18+Sheet117!K18

K18 contains the number 54.00, and on Sheet117 cell K18 contains the number 404.00.

Cell A1 displays the formula rather than the result, which should be 458.00.

Other similar formulas I have in this workbook return a result of 0 when I know there should be a significantly higher number. Then, the same formula used to refer to different cells will return what appears to be a proper result.

Vlookup Displays, If Reference Cell Is Blank?

Jan 22, 2009

I am trying to use vlookup so that when each site name is selected the relevant comments for that site are displayed.

I have a formula that is working, but it displays "0" if there is nothing in the cell. How do i get it to display a blank cell if thre is nothing in the reference cell.

this is the formula that i am using:

=IF($C$4="", "", IF($C$4="No Match", "", (VLOOKUP($C$4,Comments!$A$2:$U$295, 5,0))))

The site name appears in C4, and is selected from another sheet in the workbook.

Formula Returns A Result But The Cell Displays A Zero

Jan 18, 2006

I have a simple formula subtracting one cell from another using =SUM(XX,-XX). When I click on fx and bring up the function arguments box, the formula result is displayed correctly in that box. However, the cell containing the formula will only display a zero. I have tried reformatting the cells to no avail. I have also tried getting a result using =XX-XX and that does not work either.

Excel Only Displays Formula In Cell But Not The Result

Apr 28, 2012

Often I write the formula in the cell of an excel spreadsheet in vain, it does not work.

Excel only displays the formula in the cell such like = if(B2>2;2;0), and not the result.

Formula is correct, so I don't know why it happens. Most often this occurs when the formula is between worksheets or different excel files on the corporate server.

Full Cell Displays Last Words Rather Than 1st Characters

Dec 22, 2006

How do I change the Excel settings to display in each cell as many characters as fit within the allotted cell space?

To elaborate, in previous versions of Excel that I have used, when a cell contained more characters than could be displayed in the size allotted, for viewing and printing purposes, the cell would simply display (starting at the beginning) as many characters as possible. After upgrading, I have found that when a cell contains more characters than can be displayed, it simply displays the last word contained in the cell.

For example if a cell contains "Frederico Gonzalez & Jose Rodriquez", but there is not room to display the entirety of the message, I would like the cell to display "Frederico Gonzalez & Jo", but the way it is currently displaying is "Rodriquez " with a whole lot of empty space afterwards.

This causes a problem, because it is usually not evident that more information is contained in that cell (unless the cell is selected).

How do I change the Excel settings to display in each cell as many characters as fit within the allotted cell space?

VLookup (or HLookup) Cell With Reference Rather Than Actual Number

Oct 13, 2011

I am doing a vlookup on a cell range where the value I'm trying to lookup (a date) exists, but it's not an actual number in the cell...it's a reference to another cell with that value (somewhere completely different).

So, I'm trying to vlookup(date(1/1/2011),A1:A12,2,false) to get the B column value.

A B
1/1/2011 #
2/1/2011 #
...
12/1/2011 #

However, the A column is not the actual date. It is a reference to another cell somewhere completely different that has the actual date 1/1/2011.

When I do a vlookup trying to find 1/1/2011, it can't see it there unless I overwrite the reference in A1 (for instance) with the actual date.

Can I do a vlookup and keep my cell references?

Text Copy To Another Sheet Based On Change Of Actual Cell

Jul 20, 2013

I have this code on my sheet1:

VB:
Private Sub Worksheet_change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim KeyCells As Range
Set KeyCells = Range("K:K")
If Not Application.Intersect(KeyCells, Range(Target.Address)) Is Nothing Then
If ActiveCell.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, -6).Value Then
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Value = ((ActiveCell.Offset(0, -4).Value) * (ActiveCell.Offset(0, -5).Value)
End If
End Sub

Now I would like to add another code: When I will change value in actual cell (sheet1) then copy value from cell A1 (sheet1) to the first free cell in column A (sheet2). I still have problem with error that I am out of range if I tried to copy it to sheet2.

Find All Ranges In Worksheet And Copy Actual Cell Range To A List?

I have 10 worksheets. I would like to create a macro to find all the "2" values on worksheet 1, and have the actual range that the cell is, compiled into a list -example: I would like the list to be similar to this= (A1,B15 ,C8)

I even tried to record it but it doesnt show me the actual range that the data is found in.

Cell Displays Value Below Another Cell

Nov 27, 2006

If the cell above the target cell has formula that equals a specified cell, then the target cell displays the value of the cell below that specified cell.

Example: Same formula for F6 and G8, if...
F5 "=A1", so that F6 displays what's in A2, and
G7 "=C3", so that G8 displays what's in C4
I would also be interested in how the formula changes if the target cell equals the cell above, to the left, or to the right of the specified cell.

Formula Displays Instead Of Value!!

Jul 8, 2006

I have tried a simple =CONCATENATE(A1+B1) in a cell and it shows the formula not the value. I have tried

1. Formatting cell to various formats other than text
2. Deleting the Row/Column and adding a new one and trying the same formula
3. Ctrl + ` to show/hide formulas

I dont know why it keeps displaying the formula. Anyone know of a way to fix this?

Calculation Result Is Displays As 0.0%

May 15, 2009

I am having a difficult time with a calculation. I took over someone else's duty who is no longer with the company. The calculation used did not account for entire columns & the data I need to pull fromhas grown larger than the calculation. When I hit "F2" to manually change the data array, everything works fine until I hit enter and then the result displays as 0.0%. When I hit the insert function button, the result shows as the correct number. I tried copying the format only from an adjacent cell, but this did not work. When I tried to undo my changes, the cell still displays as 0.0%

The original calc is:
=SUM(IF(cData!$T$2:$T$45998="Internal",IF(cData!$N$2:$N$45998=9,1,IF(cData!$N$2:$N$45998=10,1,0)),0) )/SUM(IF(cData!$T$2:$T$45998="Internal",IF(cData!$N$2:$N$45998<>"",1,0),""))

The new calc is:
=SUM(IF(cData!$T$2:$T$65536="Internal",IF(cData!$N$2:$N$65536=9,1,IF(cData!$N$2:$N$65536=10,1,0)),0) )/SUM(IF(cData!$T$2:$T$65536="Internal",IF(cData!$N$2:$N$65536<>"",1,0),""))

The calc from the cell below the cell I am working in:
=SUM(IF(cData!$T$2:$T$45998="Internal",IF(cData!$O$2:$O$45998=9,1,IF(cData!$O$2:$O$45998=10,1,0)),0) )/SUM(IF(cData!$T$2:$T$45998="Internal",IF(cData!$O$2:$O$45998<>"",1,0),""))
