I am working on a financial tracking sheet for somebody in my organization. The totals have to be entered as number of bills, but he wants to read it afterword as $ amount. So is there a way to type in the number of bills in a cell (ie, 15) but have the $ amount (ie, $300.00) show up in the same cell when he hits enter or tab? This is my least favorite solution (assuming it is even possible), but it is what he is asking for. I feel like I just need to know that it won't work before he agrees to try something else.
The field is a concatenation of three other fields and only the first of three parts should be boldfaced -- the second and third part should be normal faced.
Is there an easy way to do this in excel 2007? Right now, the formula is:
I need to calculate the absolute week and have found a formula to do so. Is there a way to embed/execute this in VBA?
TRUNC(((StartDate-DATE(YEAR(StartDate),1,0))+6)/7) where StartDate is the date which you are trying to find the corresponding week number (for example Now().
why there is no option for adding a picture manually to the comment of a cell? when editing a comment the Insert picture from file from the Insert menu is disabled ! (Office XP)
and can you please edit the code so the Width and Height of the comment box is set exactly to the dimensions of the picture? (that is how to get the exact width and height of the picture being inserted from code in excel ?)
I have a need to embed a wav file into a workbook. This is fairly simple to do through the insert>>object>>create from file, but I see no way to do this through VBA. I want the entire process to be simple so the user just has to click a button, pick their file from explorer, then play the sound file through the little speaker icon that is generally created.
In the end the one sheet (filename.xls) is the only thing sent through email and it must contain the wav embedded inside without using the insert>>object>>create from file route.
I am creating a large excel file with multiple tabs and I need one of the tabs to contain a PDF. I have tried going to insert - object - browse - found the PDF file but it imports very blurry and it's quite hard to read. I tried inserting the object/PDF as a "link to file" and/or "display as icon" and all that essentially does is insert a shortcut to the PDF so that only works if you're on the same computer you used to create the link. I need to be able to send this file to another computer and be able to access the PDF somehow. Am I going to have to buy Adobe's ability to convert PDFs to .xls?
I wish to embed/nest (I'm not sure what the difference/ correct syntax is)
These Funtions:
1. "=INDEX($H$4:$H$9,MATCH(G14,$G$4:$G$9,0))"
2, =HLOOKUP(Arg!D10,Arg!$D$10:$DA$50,5,FALSE)
The HLOOKUP returns a text value that the Index and Match convert into a number. I wish this to be done in one cell - is this possible?
I'm using INDEX with MATCH because HLOOKUP can return a 'not applicable' that equals '6' this need to be discounted in my results but that is a digression FYI.
I have an Excel spreadsheet with Harvey's Balls font and need to get the file distributed amongst coworkers. Is there a way to embed the font into the spreadsheet so they don't have to install the font?
i have a sheet that autogenerates a .csv file and uploads it into a webform. In order to do this I have to open an Internet Explorer window go to webpage and use the sendkye function, my code looks like this:
Dim ie As Object
Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application") ie.Visible = True ie.Navigate "http://uploadsite/upload.form" 'Check connection til web loop! Do If ie.ReadyState = 4 Then ie.Visible = False Exit Do Else DoEvents End If Loop
if I instead could EMBED the webbrowser into my sheet and then go to the upload site and upload the file directly from the sheet. I have some basic vba skills, but I have never worked with the embedded objects.
I am trying to embed part of a webpage into my worksheet. Specifically, I want to include a form from a web-site that allows me to enter a flight number. I then want the results to pop-up in a new web-window.
So, I want the search box (or a section of the webpage) to appear in my excel worksheet so that I don't have to always open IE when searching for data.
I have a file with two sheets - Main and Reference. The file has a macro that when used from Main sheet displays some data (images to be specific) from the Reference sheet. The main sheet is of a specific format and has some buttons to call the macro.
I want to have the capability to create any number of main sheets of the same format. I know this can be done by saving the Main sheet as a template and right clicking on a sheet and clicking 'Insert..'. But that would require the template to be stored in the excel start file on the local computer.
I want to know if there is any way the worksheet template can be stored within an excel file, so that if the file is sent to people on a different computer, the user can easily add more worksheets using the template?
I've just written up an SOP for a reconciliation process. Part of it requires the reader to use some Excel UDFs that I've created. Rather than having someone look for the UDF file on the network, I tried to embed it as an Excel Worksheet Icon within my procedure document. However, when I double-click the icon to launch the add-in, I get the following error message:
"Microsoft Word can't start the application required to open this object. An error occurred and this feature is no longer functioning properly. Would you like to repair this feature now?" This does not happen when I embed a regular Excel workbook, or even a template.

I am attempting to merge a scroll bar and an activeX text box. I currently have a horizontal scroll bar that links to a cell with values from 1-20, A dynamic label in the adjacent cell changes when the scroll bar moves. I need the label to be inside the scroll bar track/tray. I was told an activeX text box would do the trick. However, i am new to VBA and activeX text boxes any code or solution to this problem. Conditions:
The slider and the track should overlay the text box label The track should be transparent but on top of the label The label should be a perfect fit to the slider's tray
Here is a reference to the scroll bar labels. I have posted an example file of what i am attempting to achieve.
I am making one project in excel where I want to add time zone converter Or time zone search in engine in excel for that purpose I have create one portable software for time conversion but I am unable to add or insert or embed it in excel as it is an exe file.
I have attached one winzip file that is carrying Age Calculator in it so that you can have a brief understanding about how does the portable software looks like, age calculator is a portable software as it does not need installation & it works as we run it. I am also attaching excel demo file with it by the name ""time zone", its rough simulacrum of my original project file.
I've done this before in Excel 2003 but I can't seem to do it in Excel 2007 because the control isn't there in the additional controls list.
In Excel 2003 it was called Microsoft Office Spreadsheet 11.0 and when ticked gave an extra item on the control toolbox which allow you to draw an excel spreadsheet control into a userform.
It's not there in the VBE of Excel 2007 - How to do it in this version?
Screenshots of the additional controls screen in both versions: [URL]... [URL]....
I am trying to embed a picture into a worksheet, hide the picture, then call it up later when a macro runs. I know how to insert a picure using a macro, but I want to embed the picture so that I can take the file with me that includes the picture and be able to call the picuture in my macro. Right now, the picture is on my hard drive and the picture will not load if I take the file to a different computer and run the macro.
embed a audio file (.wav or .mp3) into a Excel Sheet and be able to have it play from a macro? I need the Clip to stay in the file not refer to a location on the pc and have it play from the sheet not open media player. Can this be done?
I'm basically looking for something almost like an inverse function to INDIRECT. This function would first look at a cell's formula as a text string, parse out the first valid cell reference in A1 format, and return that cell as a text string.
Detail: I have a spreadsheet with cells that point to other values. I would like to get only the row number from the first cell reference in the formula residing in a given cell. For example:
Suppose A1 has the formula =AL267. and A2 has the formula =SUM(AL94:AL235)
I would like a formula in B1 that returns the text string, "AL267" so that I would know this is the first reference.
Ideally it could be dragged down to B2 such that it returns the text string "AL94" (and not "AL235") because AL94 is the first cell reference in A2's
Currently I am copying the formulas after hitting ctl+` and pasting that text into a text editor, followed by text operations to manipulate the results into the desired values. Any solution that didn't involve going out to notepad.
Note: I know the syntax below is not how you would enter forumlas into Excel but I am using it to quickly illustrate what I'm trying to do and need help with. A cell not in column D, E, or F contains a formula of the form: F=IF(D>0, D/E, "blank") . Note: If a cell in column D>0 (eg. D5>0) then the cell to the right of the selected D cell (eg. E5) will also be >0 ; otherwise, both cells will be empty.
This is what I want to do: If cell D?>0 , then F?=D?/E? ; otherwise, F?=empty .
Example 1: If D5>0, then F5=D5/E5 ; otherwise F5=empty . Example 2: If D7>0, then F7=D7/E7 ; otherwise F7=empty . Etc. I want this to apply to all rows.
I cannot enter the formula directly into the F? cell because sometimes I will need to enter data into cell F? manually. When I need to enter data manually into F? this results in the formula being overwritten by the new data and this means that if I ever needed to have data calulated based on the formula F=IF(D>0, D/E, "blank") I would have to re-enter the formula from scratch over again; obviously this is a nusance.
I have a situation where I have to curve fit data, this can lead to different formulas being used with varying constants.
Is it possible to pickup a TEXT based formula and related constants from other cells, and then place this into another cell as a functioning formula. For Example
Cell A1 contains the formula as a text string whether it be y=a+bx+cx^2, or y=a+b/x, etc Cells A2:A6 contain the individual constants, a, b, c, etc
I would then want the VBA to read the text based formula and put it into an output cell as a functioning excel formulae.g
In cell B10: =a+b*A10+c*A10^2
I understand picking the constants up and putting the formula should not be too much of an issue, however trying to insert the variable form of the curve fit is the part that I am struggling with, and am unsure if possible.
