I've created a worksheet with a number of dropdowns / data validations. Now the thing with these validations is the source range apparently has to be in the same sheet (well it can be another one but much simpler if in the same). I've just realized I created them in the wrong place, so need to erase them. Pressing the delete key isnt working though, they're still there. I could right-click delete but that then requires one to move cells up/right etc and that could mess with my formulas.
Code: Sub EraseWorksheet() ' ****THIS ERASES ALL THE ITEMS FROM THE ESTIMATING SHEET**** ' IT ADDS A 1 VALUE TO ALL THE ITEMS Except, Floor Type, Prep, and Removal With ActiveSheet .Unprotect On Error Resume Next With .Range("B4:B202").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeConstants)
On a worksheet I want 4 cells to have validation, when a selection in the first cell is made this limits the choice in the second, when the second is selected then the third is limited by 1 and 2 and the forth will be limited by 1,2, and 3.
In the attached example data , if I choose a Region, I have a choice of Countries. When I choose a Country I am limited to valid Cities and when I have chosen a City then a list of applicable Agents will be available. I have used NamedRanges for a two dimensional lookup but for four and my list will be far bigger than the sample, I do not fancy maintaining numerous NamedRanges.
I am using a modified version of Debra Dalgleish's filtercopy macro in which 3 data validations are being used (she used 1 in her downloadable example ProductList. zip) and it works just fine when the validations are used in order as they should be. However, in looking over the data I am trying to present in my report I think it would be very valuable to use the first and third validations at times (skipping the 2nd) to discern information in that way. Long story short, I can't seem to get this to work and don't know if it's even possible because I'm not a VBA expert.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) On Error Resume Next If Target.Row = 3 And Target.Column = 4 Then Worksheets("StoreData").Range("O2").Calculate Worksheets("StoreData").Range("Database") _ . AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterCopy, _ CriteriaRange:=Sheets("StoreData").Range("O1:O2"), _ CopyToRange:=Range("A6:K6"), Unique:=False End If If Target.Row = 3 And Target.Column = 6 Then...............................
I'm loosing the validations that I set up such as having a dropdown list and so on when I save and reopen the file. First I thought I didn't save it, but notice it happening consistently.
I have search the site for a possible solution for my problem. And that is: how to create multiple lists using validation – depending on each other.
The scenario is. I have a data sheet that contains a list of alien plant species. The species have different methods of treatments (some do have the same). Each treatment might have one or more herbicide products that can be used and with each herbicide a certain application mixture. I have used validation to create the pick list of the plants, the next pick list should be the treatment for the selected plant species and the 3rd list the product and then last list the mixture. All of these lists should only list the information that is relevant to the selected plant specie, in the first list.
I'm using Microsoft Office 365 Home Premium. Although this file is saved with Excel 97-2003 - because the computers at work only use 2003.
OK - Here is my dilemma. I've been creating a spread(work)sheet for work. One of the fields that needs to be entered by the manager doing the papwerwork is 'Date'. I currently have the Data-Validation set as follows because the paperwork being done is for the yesterday:
Code: =TODAY()-1 I have the Error Alert set to Warning prompting the manager to ensure the date is correct (sometimes a mid-shift audit is being done, so the actual current date has to be used). Now, what I am wanting to do is to also set it that if the manager set's the date for a future date, I would like Excel to also either do a Warning or a Critical displaying a message that future dates cannot be used.
I know this may sound trivial, but with this paperwork, dates are extremely critical and vital in the event of an investigation for cash shortages etc.
I have uploaded the excel sheet to my domain, which I can provide a link to - either here or in a private message - but I do not want to do so unless I know that it's ok to do. If so, I will reply with a link to the location of the Excel file.
On Sheet 1 I have Data Validation Lists set up. On Sheet 2 I have the information populating from what is entered on Sheet 1, only problem is...when I don't have anything entered in the cell(s) on Sheet 1 then the cell(s) on Sheet 2 reflect 0. I would like the cell(s) to remain blank if nothing is entered on Sheet 1.
I have created a Data Validation list in one of my spreadsheets which works fine. The list itself has no duplicates which is fine but when I select my entries in the other spreadsheet, I want to make sure they cannot select the same value twice.
I tried selecting "List" in data validation and using an AND with COUNTIF but it doesn't work.
I am creating a Spreadsheet to work with a game which I am designing. I want to create a combat calculator which will generate formulas based on which class a person chooses to be, and their choice of weapons, armour and other equipment (makes things a lot easier for me to visualize). I have created the first worksheet which will act as the interface where users can input their character configurations and a second worksheet where all of the data is stored, included items and their values.
Assuming that on the interface I have cell A1 which will let the user select their class (Warrior, Archer, Sorcerer). I also have cells B1 = Helmet, B2 = Body Armour, B3 = Leg Armour, B4 = Feet Armour, B5 = Hand Armour.
I would like cells B1:B5 to create a Data Validation based on the class which is selected in A1.
E.g. IF A1="Warrior"; B1 = A list of Melee Helmets, B2 = A list of Melee Body Armour... etc IF A1="Sorcerer"; B3 = A list of Magic Leg Armour...
I have managed to do this with the following formula, but only if the data is stored in the same sheet. Cell B1 =IF(A1="Warrior", =meleeArmour1, =IF(A1="Archer", =rangeArmour1, =magicArmour1)) Cell B2 =IF(A1="Warrior", =meleeArmour2, =IF(A1="Archer", =rangeArmour2, =magicArmour2))
[NOTE] =meleeArmour1 represents the range of cells where the Melee Helmets/Head Armour is stored. =magicArmour2 represents the range of cells where the Magic Body Armour is stored.
The group cell names do not seem to work if they are on a different sheet, nor does it work if I replace the group cell name (=meleeArmour1) with the full formula (=Sheet2!A$1$:A$10$)
I'm looking to create a macro that will take a input from extract master.xls workbook and search that contain in the transaction.xls workbook.
I need not want to search the entire row exactly, instead if the search string found any where in that row, that search string alone need to be removed from that row.
I'm just getting started with VBA, and I must say, it's very rewarding when something actually works (of course with a lot of help in this fase of my VBA knowledge)
I've got the following problem, I'm trying to write some code that wil clear all cells down if i.e. cell E45 is empty.
So if cell E45 is empty the code should clear all formulas / text in de cells A46 ; M46 all the way to A100 ; M100.
I have 1800 rows of bibliographic entries that are I am cleaning up. The first column imported with some numbers and spaces that I don't want. Here is an example of the variation:
Abdalla, C.W., 37 Abdalla, C.W., B.A. Roach, and D.J. Epp, 2 Abou-Ali, H and M. Belhaj,
I want all the rows to be like the first one, ie, no numbers and no spaces.
On a tab, i have one column where information is entered. what should be entered is based on a dropdown list (which i have setup on a validation). the other thing that should be allowed to be entered is a an 8 digit number. when something else is entered, i need to have a popup message appear to tell the user to fix the error.
I have no idea how to effectively enter in the restriction in VBA for this.
Below is the VBA i have started:
1. The problem is that if one of the drop-downs is chosen, then i get this error message (because the dropdown list has text that is more than 8 characters in length).
2. The one other problem is that if the cell is left blank, i still receive the popup message. how do i avoid this from showing up.
3. I am also looking to do something like this for a range of cells (from F5:F100).
Private Sub Worksheet_Change()
Dim stue As String stue = "f5"
Application.EnableEvents = True If Len(Range("f5")) 8 Then MsgBox "there is an error in cell " & stue & " " End If End Sub
I need to edit multiple validations in a worksheet. There are over 990 validation for each month. I want to change the word in the sentence. Example: April to May. Right now I have to edit each one seperatly. I have tried a macro but it changes to whole sentence. Find and replace do not allow editing in a validation.
I have an excel spread sheet, Col I is a Date, Col K is a Date, Col P is a date and Col T is a text(with list validation) I have validation that if if T = "As is" and P <> I or K (which ever one has a value) then Error. Add Type:=xlValidateCustom, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop, Operator:=xlBetween, Formula1:="=IF(T2= ""Accept as is"",(IF(P2=(IF(K2<>"""",K2,I2)),TRUE, FALSE)), TRUE)"
But if the user changes T to some other value then it is ok to change P, But they could put any value in that field. I Need to validate that P is a DATE also I was trying to do a validation Greater than > 01/01/2007 but I can not do multiple validations on the same cell. How can I validate P is a date also
I have a problem in applying Data Validation on cells containing Formula. Eg: cell A1 has a value 10 and cell B1 has a value 15. i have a formula "=A1+B1" in cell C1. If i apply a Data validation to the cell C1 so as to accept values only in the range of 0 to 10, the cell C1 is still accepting values grater than 10 when i change the values in the cells A1 and B1.
I am trying to paste formats and validations to the current row of my spreadsheet.
Code: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim targetcol, ganntfirst, ganntlast As Integer On Error Resume Next Application.EnableEvents = False targetcol = Range("BudgetHrs").Column ganntfirst = Range("Ganntfirst").Column [Code] .....
The code in orange is the problem code, and I have a range named format which is actually Row1:1
And I want the formats and data validation pasted into the current row and also the next row.
In MS Excel, I find that when the zoom is dropped to 50% the fonts in the list become unreadable. Is there anyway that the fonts in the list have the ability to have their own formats?
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".
I need to reference the projected and actual expenses from the total on worksheet 'expenses' So i did so, however, if I change the drop down on the expenses worksheet to only display housing data, then the projected and actual expenses on my budget worksheet changes as well to the new data portrayed on the expenses worksheet.
I need to reference the cell, without it changing when I change the category display, but I need the cell to change accordingly if I enter new data in the overall tablet on the expenses worksheet.
Or do I need to create a seperate worksheet that has the data in and reference my cells on my budget worksheet to that new worksheet?
Each petition can generate several tasks, one line per task.
John Doe | XXXX-YYYY | NCO John Doe | | RIL John Doe | XERT-WWWW | RMT Jane Doe | QSZE-AQWC | RIL
On the second worksheet:
Complete list of agents | number of petitions | Status
John Doe | 2 | OK Jane Doe | 1 | [BLANK]
I want to be able to fill in the second worksheet automatically. For each agent in my worksheet 2, I want to check if they appear in worksheet 1 and if so count the number of petitions related.
Here is the above link. Am looking at a button which saves whatever is the temp worksheet row in the customers worksheet. The temp worksheet basically takes the data from the Quotations worksheet and places it in a row.
I am copying data from worksheet "Microsoft" to another workbook and paste in sheet1, i want the cell G1 to auto input the worksheet name "Microsoft" where i copy the data from,
How to have G1 show the worksheet name after i copy and paste the data from worksheet name "Microsoft".
Each month I get a report that is formatted by the customers and this sheet never changes. The problem is that the master sheet my job uses is not formatted this way. The master workbook has several sheets that breaks down the data from the monthly sheet. Instead of having to enter the data manually I'm looking for a way to export the data from the monthly sheets into the master workbook. As I stated the sheets are all the same but come from different providers and all contain the same amount/style of data.
The table, which works correctly, looks in another worksheet 'Report' for 'Example 1' within the date range of August. This uses COUNTIFS.
Ideally, what I'm wanting to do is have an auto-filter on each of the cells - 'Example 1', 'Example 2', so if a user wants to see what rows on the 'Report' sheet, falls into this criteria, it auto filters the other worksheet, and takes them too it.
The action would be - Click on the cell of 'Example 1', the macro auto-filters based on the cells value in column F of the 'Report' sheet, and takes the user there. The macro would have to take into account the date filter as well, which uses cells A1,B1 for August, and C1,D1, for September.
I have two sheets in one workbook; one has a list of names in column A (136 of them) and another is a master list with all the names of people who work for the company (over 2000). Sheet 1 and Sheet 2 respectively. I need to populate columns B-E in Sheet 1 with the data in columns B-E in Sheet 2, but only for the names that match in column A. I've tried applying filters but can't get to the data I need for some reason. The names are formatted the same way in both sheets (Last, First). In Sheet 2 the names are links but in Sheet 1 they aren't; not sure if that's important.
