Try this formula. Array formulas will have curly brackets {} emcompassing the ENTIRE formula. You do not add these, you Enter the formula with Ctrl+Shift+Enter and Excel will add them (details: Array formulas). Many more Excel Formulas
=IF(ISERROR(MATCH(A1494,Jan07!A:A,0)),"",INDEX(Jan07!A:B,MATCH(A1494,Jan07!A:A,0),2))
Some of the cells end up with nothing in them. Columns E and H are the differenced of C & D and G & F respectfully. The problem is that some of the cells in E and H state #VALUE! because there isn't any data in the other columns (C2 is blank, D2 is 24, E2 is #VALUE!). If I update C2 with 0 then I receive the correct answer in E2 of -24.
I want to have a macro auto fill all blank cells (even though there is the formula in them there isn't data) with a "0". I am using the below code and it is Compile error: Type mismatch at the "True" part of the code.
Sub FindEmptyCellAutoFill()
Dim rFound As Range
With ActiveSheet.Range("C:D", "F:G")
Do
Set rFound = . Find(What:=" ", LookIn:=xlValues)
If rFound Is True Then AutoFillValue "0"
If rFound Is False Then Exit Do
Loop
End With
End Sub
I am manually scrolling through Excel right now to find all blank cells in column L. Some cells have dates, others are blank. IF L is BLANK, I go to row K and copy/paste row K to row L. IF K is BLANK, I got to row I and copy/paste to row L.
Is there a statement I can put into row L to basically say "If blank copy/paste from row K. If row L and K are blank go to row I and copy/paste to L." ???
The code below is supposed to find blank cells in column E on sheet3, copy some data from adjacent cells, create a string from that data and paste on sheet4 in Column J. I get duplicate data and or most blank cells? What the heck did I write.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am using Excel 2003. I have a range that I have defined in my sheet called "March". Within this sheet, I have a range name called "ACCOUNTRANGE". Basically it comprises the column B10:B200. Within this range, I may be inserting rows so range is dynamic. Well one of my problems is finding BLANK Entries in my range. How do I loop through the range to find BLANK entries and prompt the user that a BLANK entry was found, then it stops the loop and if none is found, nothing happens and continues on.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to search Column C for an instance of the text "Std. Residual", then cycle through the non blank cells to the right and run some formatting code:
VB:
'this line will be modified so that i cycle through the non blank cells that i have found
For row_cycle = 1 To 7
'not signifcant
If Abs(ActiveCell) < 1.96 Then
Selection.Interior.Color = 255
[Code] .....
I then want to search for the next instance of "Std. Residual" in Column C, do the same again, and so on for the entire Worksheet.
I am working with arrays that extend far beyond their actual content, and so i am looking for a way, through macros, to find the first blank cell in a column and then copy all preceding cells in that column.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI'd like a macro that does 3 things..
1. Find the last row (cell) of data in the "Customer Number" column. This search should be by the name "Customer Number" rather than by column letter because the column that "Customer Number" will be in can change.
2. Find the column named "Purple" (also by name for same reason)
3. If the "Purple" column has no blank cells in those same number of rows as the "Customer Number" column, delete the whole "Purple" column.
Ok so my named range looks like this:
[Code]....
However, I want to ignore the "" cells and the truly blank cells... However, I think all of them will have "" since I have this formula in all of the ones I'm putting in the range:
[Code]....
How do I go about getting these results into a named range so I can use it on validation since validation only seems to ignore truly blank cells and not the "" ones.
I can't modify my formula to leave blank cells blank when dragging it down, Also, I've got two formulas that i need to combine. Please view the comments I've put in cells E4, F2,F3,H2 and I2 to understand clearly what am seeking. See the attached worksheet.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have sporadic cell values in a column. I will be describing the lamen logic I use to fill in these blanks manually. Find the first nonblank cell in the column, then look for the next nonblank cell in the column. I count the number of blank cells in between. If even # of blank cells, then I give the first half of the blanks the value of the first nonblank cell and the second half of the blank cells the value of the next nonblanck. If odd # of blank cells, then I do the same with the exception that the odd cell that falls in the middle will be randomly designated the value of the either first or second nonblank cell.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI can count the blank cells withiin a range using
=COUNTBLANK(C6:AD2506)
But I dont want it to count the cells if the entire row, within that cell, i.e. C6:AD6, is blank.
It should only count the blank cells within a row if there has been some data entered on that row..provided it has been entered within the specified range.
I am looking for an IF statement that would leave a balance cell blank if both the revenue and expense cells are blank, otherwise a formula would be calculated.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI presume this is fairly simple to do, since it's certainly easy enough to do manually by filling in a couple of rows and dragging them down, but I need it to be performed in a macro that I can run before other macros run.
What I need specifically is for the macro to go to G1 and insert the number .01... Then go to G2 and insert .02... Then G3 and insert .03... And repeat this until it finds the first non-blank cell ( row number this occurs at varies), at which point it ends and does nothing to that populated cell or any other cell in the column thereafter (including other blanks farther down).
This all needs to be done in Arial, 10pt, white.
Here's what I'm attempting to do: For each column, X,Y, Z, I am attempting
to count nonblanks. However, the data was imported from Access and Oracle,
and Excel treats what appear to be blank cells as nonblanks. I've tested
this theory by highlighting a couple of "blank" cells and deleting them, and
my count changes. So, can I get Excel to put a value into my "blank" cells,
so then I could filter it out, or create a formula that would only count
dates in my columns (which is what I'm after).
This is what I'm looking at:
A B C
1 2/4/2006 2/6/2006 ("blank")
2 ("blank") 12/13/2005 1/7/2006
3 2/20/2006 1/15/2006 ("blank")
In each column if I use a COUNTA I'll get a total of 3, instead of 2 for A,
3 for B and 1 for C.
I have a list that looks something like this:
Column B
Row 4 Item 1
Row 5 Item 2
Row 6
Row 7
Row 8 Item 3
Row 9
Row 10 Item 4
Row 11
Row 12
Row 13
Row 14 Item 5
The range of cells in column B containing the items has a name "ColStreams"
I need to go through the list, filling in each blank cells with the value contained in the first non-blank cell above it - so, in this case, rows 6 and 7 would contain "Item 2", row 9 would contain "Item 3", rows 11-13 would contain "Item 4" and so on.
The formula below calculates appropriately, however, if any of the cells (E12,E14, E21, E22, E28, E29) are blank, it returns a #VALUE! error. I would like the cell to remain blank. How can I do this? The formula is listed below.
=(SUM(E34-E6)-(SUM((E12)+E14)-(SUM((E21)+E22)-(SUM(E28)+E29))))
the situation is i have a sheet, contains like 500 cells, from A1, to T500, some of the cells are blank, then i figure that from cell A1 to E500 not all the words in capital, so i make it with upper on the2nd sheet, then, i copy + paste value back to the first sheet (A1 to E500)
i get wht i want, but why it's like there's no blank cells anymore on my worksheet.
like you know, if u want to jump from a filled cell to the blank cell, you would hit Ctrl + Down, it jump to the very end of the datas that i paste value before.
so when i hit Ctrl + Down from A1, it jumps to A500, meanwhile the filled cells only 10 cells.
I have a spreadsheet with data in 7 columns. Columns A-d have one line of data in them but the other 3 columns have more than one line.
How do I write a macro which will copy the first row of the first 4 columns down until I reach an empty row?
I was curious if it is possible to give a single cell multiple number formats based on what the number is in the cell. So for example if my number is bigger than 1000, I would like to use comas so that it looks like this 1,000. However, if it is less than 1000 I would like it to look more like this 999.00.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm am trying to combine columns B and C in such a way that the result will appear as B: C when C is populated and B alone when C is not populated. I've tried a variety of functions, and I'm unable to get the result I want. This is my most recent attempt:
=IF(C2=ISBLANK, B2, B2&": "&C2)
So i have a userform which is populating 2 worksheets (the first is no problem its just taking information from textboxes / list boxes and populating single cells).
The second sheet is where i have the problem it is a Log list so each row contains the following columns
PO
User
P/N
so what i need to is check to the next blank row and then enter the details from by form in that row when i click enter. The PO number is already filled out with an auto number form 0000 to 9999.
I have a column with random numbers of blank cells.
I have a method of looking up a particular number in this column, but I want to be able to display the number in the first cell that is above it, that contains a number.
Is there some way to use the first cell (that is not blank) above a given cell in a function?
How can I reference this cell?
The numbers in this column are not in order.
I am using this to find the first and last date that a particular group of shares were purchased.
I have a list of #'s starting from 1, and the next cell down adds 1 to that.. based on some other info, it will either add 1 or come out blank.. i want to be able to have cell A1 point out which is the last cell that has a number and is not blank.. does this make sense?
Here is the formula in this column..
In this sheet cell L284 has the same formula in it as cell L283, however because R283 is blank it also comes out blank...
Here is a copy of the sheet.. I want cell A1 to equal 282 in this example...
I am trying to find the last non blank cell in a row. I am using the following line of
RC = Range("IV" & AR).End(xlToLeft).Column
It does not quite work for me, because there are what appears to be blank cells in the row but there is a formula that is auto filled and returns a blank. Can this line of code be modified or is there a different line of code I can use.
I need to know the value (which is a date) of the first non-blank cell in a range in a row. I have found some array formulas, but they either return it for the whole row (which I don't want), or they return text (which I don't want), or they don't work at all.
The range is: B9:FL9. Some of the cells in this range are blank, some are "0", and some contain dates. I need to know the most recent (furthest left) cell that contains a date and what that date is.
I need to create a formula that counts the number of blank cells to the right and then actually uses the value in the non blank cell.
The result requiired is that the formula will find the difference between 1 value, the next non blank cell and then will average the cells between to get the interval figures.
eg. Value1 is 50.
Value2(the next nonblank) is 60.
There are 4 empty cells in between.
I need a formula that will find the next Nonblank (Value2), calculate the difference between Value1 and Value2, then divide that by the number of blank cells + 1 and add the value to the left.
The cell in A2, calculated manually at the moment would be:
=A1+((A6-A1)/(4+1))
This would then be altered across the page so that A3 would be:
=A2+((A6-A2)/(3+1)
etc., etc.
Therefore the result returned across the blank cells would be:
A1 A2 A3 A4 A5 A6
Value1 BLANK BLANK BLANK BLANK Value2
50 52 54 56 58 60
I have 2 sets of data running side by side. One set starts at A11:F11. The other set starts at H11:I11. They can be of varying lengths. What I need to do is look at both sets of data and find the first blank row. Everything I have seen so far only looks at a particular column. I need to look at all the columns from A to I.
