Finding Largest Cell In A Column
Aug 17, 2009I want to find the largest cell in a column so I can use “auto fit selection” without cutting off type.

View 9 RepliesI did a search & couldn't find anything related to my question: If I have a range of known cells (A1, A3, A5, for ex.) & want to find which cell has the largest value & then return the cell of that contains the largest value (not the value itself), how do I code it it VBA?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a table showing interest levels in training courses from a group of schools, eg:
English Maths Science
School1 3 4 2
School2 7 1 0
School3 3 2 5
I want to identify the column heading for the first, second and third most popular courses. ie for School1 the most popular course is Maths, second most popular is English and so on.
I have tried using the OFFSET function, which worked if I provided the cell location of the required value. I then looked at the ADDRESS function to provide the cell location: eg For School2 find the 2nd most popular course:
=ADDRESS(ROW(A3),COLUMN(data?)+MATCH(LARGE(B3:B5,2),B3:B5,0)-1)
But I have got stuck with what I should enter for COLUMN(data?) as I do not know in which column the second largest value is.
I am sure Excel has the required functionality.
I have a small problem with a list of event codes in the form XX###, (Xs are letters, # numbers), I need to be able to find the largest numerical component in the list, and am having problems finiding a neat way of doing it.
I could do it by using the RIGHT command to get the numerical bit in a seperate column, then convert it to number, then use LARGEST, but this seems somewhat cumbersome!
How would I return a cell reference (address) to a cell that contains the largest number in a list?
I tried using "Address(large....) where I get the correct column, but the returned row # is the actual value in the cell (the highest # in the list).
I eventually will want to delete the highest number to leave the cell blank.
when the largest number in column B the hotel in column A should be in bold.
So in excel language IF(Number in B Is Max display corresponding hotel in column A as BOLD. But I can't figure out how to do this.

I am trying to write a macro in order to find the largest value in a column in one worksheet, and copy and paste that value into a different workbook. I have found a code similar to what I am looking for and tweaked it, but it needs a few more adjustments. The code below opens the file I want it to, and pastes data into the correct workbook and worksheet, but I would like it to be able to paste in the next empty cell in Row 3, instead of just in the cell "C3". Also i would like for the program to find the largest numeric value in column C, instead of using an if last row statement, as this current program does not always give me the output I am looking for.
VB:
Dim wsMaster As Worksheet, wbDATA As Workbook
Dim NextRow As Long, LastRow As Long
Set wsMaster = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Contract Metrics")
NextRow = wsMaster.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row + 1

I need the largest value in a column to automatically highlight and the old high value to return to normal.

How would I find the four rows with the largest value in a defined column and then export them to a separate worksheet.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI putting together a spreadsheet that applies Payments (as they come in) against the oldest open invoice. As payments come in, old invoices are closed out. An aging is done and late fees are applied.
I have made a macro that inputs all of the information of the invoice in a list. However, when a payment comes in, I am trying to write a macro that:
1) in column G - Finds the first non-zero balance
2) Applies the payment amount to that open invoice. If there is additional funds left over after the satisfaction of that invoice, I would like the payment to be applied to the next open invoice until all the funds of the payment have been drained.
I am having so much trouble trying to even just locate the first nonzero balance and select it.
I have the following code. Is there any way to select a range once the last cell with data is found. I would like to be able to select whatever cell in column A is selected with the code below through E2.

ActiveSheet.Range("A65536").End(x1up).Offset(1,0).Select
when run locates the next empty cell in Column A perfectly. But.... how can I get this to work from a button located at the top of the spreadsheet?
I am only a copy and paste man where macros are concerned!
How would I do a vba for finding a blank cell in column D, and when a blank cell is found, delete and shift up cells D through N on the same line?

I have written several pieces of VBA code which produce a sequence of tables on a single worksheet (with the rather original title "Tables"). The code often adds tables to the end of the current set of tables, and to do this, I need to know where the next available space is.
I have a solution which I have been using for ages now, which checks each cell in an appropriate column until a sequence of 3 blank cells has been found as I can guarentee that the tables are at most 2 cells apart. It then sets i=i-3 to give me the location of the first empty cell.
Blankcount = 0
i = 3
While Blankcount < 3
If Cells(i, 3) = "" Then
Blankcount = Blankcount + 1
Else
Blankcount = 0
End If
i = i + 1
Wend
i = i - 3
I am looking for a formulas to first find the middle number in a column of numbers eg 1,2,3,4,5 3 is the middle (similar to median) thats where the calculations start...
it then assigns values of minus to the numbers above the middle and plus values to the numbers below the middle
1 -50
2 -50
3 0
4 +50
5 +50
now when it comes to even numbers eg 1,2,3,4,5,6 if i use median it divide 3 & 4 and comes up with 3.5 ........ i want it to recognize 3 and 4 as the middle numbers
and assign plus and minuses above and below the middle numbers
1 -50
2 -50
3 -25
4 +25
5 +50
6 + 50
I have a column array with various cells in that array populated. In every subsequent cell in that array I want a formula that finds the previously populated cell and that value added a cell that is in the same row but two columns to the left.
I am attempting to update a column of numeric values based on finding and validating record IDs in two different worksheets. So for example if in worksheet1 in column 'C' the ID is 1234ETC and in worksheet2 1234ETC is found then I want to update worksheet2 in the corresponding cell for that record ID in column 'J' with the information from worksheet 1. So far I have been using a routine like the following to go through and compare the ID's but now I need to update the other cells in column 'J' reveiw the following and see if there is a way to improve upon this.

I'm using the LOOKUP function to find the largest number and then return the name from a different column, it looks like this:
=LOOKUP(LARGE(round1!$F$2:$F$65,1),round1!$A$2:$A$65)
but all I get is hashN/A?
See attached. This is a report that I have to do every month. I cant work out a formula for it. What I need is a formula that will pick out which is the largest Figure of column A,B,C,D for each row and put the corresponding header in column G. i have manually put these in. Would anyone know a formula i could use for this.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am making a worksheet that I intend to use to track my money. When I first open the worksheet, it opens on a tab where I can click a button to report a type of transaction. For example, if I make a withdrawl from the bank for $50, I click the button, it takes me to the sheet that tracks my bank-related stuff, selects a cell and opens up a form, at which point I type in what the transaction consisted of. However, the sheet also tracks what is in my wallet, so I'd like to finish reporting the bank transaction in the form, and have a button to click that reports the wallet part automatically.
So, essentially what I need to do is select several non-contiguous cells that are in the last row of the bank sheet, copy them, switch to the wallet-tracking sheet, and paste them in a row that is one past the last row of that sheet. The paste should keep the cells next to each other, even if they were non-contiguous when they were being copied.
See data in the attached image in Col A thru Col D. In Col E, I want to populate the max value for the same part # from Col C or Col D depending upon value in Col B.
I have included a sample of the expected results in Col E for illustration purposes.
For example Row 3,5,6 are all part # 1 with Col B ="Y", suggesting they are interchangeable parts, therefore, I would like the formula to have ability to pick 10 (since its largest between 3,10,0) from Col C.

I basically I have a column with numbers. All the numbers are positive integers. What I like to do is have a VBA function that extracts the integers with the largest number of digits. So for example if we have the following column:
12
123
234
12346
2345
[code].....
So basically we search for largest number of digits, and extract the numbers that fit this category, which could be just one number or multiple numbers.
I'm trying to find the largest number in a row and then have the column heading (text) as the result. I can find the largest number by using =max(numb1, numb2 ....) but then how do I get the heading of the column as the result. An example of what I want to happen is below
Red
Green
Blue
Orange
Yellow
Result
2
4
3
6
1
[code]...
I anticipate an issue where 2 columns have the same largest number and not sure how to over come this either with multiple answers
There should be a formula to extract the largest values and its corresponding values. For example, if column
Products Costs
A1 Pen 200
A2 Pencil 125
A3 Radio 670
A4 Apple 1500
A5 Xbox 222
A6 TV 100
The desired outcome
Products Cost
Apple 1500
Radio 670
Xbox 222
Pen 200
Pencil 125
TV 100
The second goal is extracting the top 3 largest values using a formula.
Sample file is attached for your convenience. Desired outcome is in GREEN.
In the attached workbook the classify macro reformats data. Can a line of code resize the cells to the largest word in the cell?

I need a macro to identify the largest value across columns I2 - AS2. Once found, I need to replace the value with value found minus the value in BQ. The final step would be to highlight the cell that was changed across columns I2 - AS2, then move to the next row and do same until I reach the last row in the worksheet. The number of rows vary each day but the columns do not.
I have written the attached code, which identifies the largest value in the first row, but I don't know how to replace the value found with the new value and then move to the next row until it reaches the final row for the day.
In the attached file, my largest value sits in AC2. That value needs to be replaced with 486.17 (1,175.37 - the value in BQ2 of 689.20). The cell should then be highlighted so I can quickly identified what cells have been changed.
I have two columns. One column has UPCs - some of which are duplicates. The second column just has number values. I'm trying to add the sum of all of the numbers in column two which are attached to their respective UPC. For example,
COL A///// Col B
11111111111///// 10
00000000000///// 15
11111111111///// 10
11111111111///// 4
00000000000///// 2
So, I need a third and fourth column to give me the total value for a single SKU(col A) of all the values in col B. In this example the Third column would contain the SKU, and the fourth column would contain the sum of all values in column B that are associated with the single SKU in column three. The third and fourth column would look like this:
COL C///// COL D
11111111111///// 24
00000000000///// 17
Here is what I am trying to accomplish.
I have to columns.
I have copied column A from a PDF file. It contains entries like this, all in the same column:
5 0.002HP Direct- 26845 7/1959 Airesearch
This column contains an ID # (5), a description (0.002HP Direct), a part # (26845), a date (7/1959), and a manufacturer (Airesearch). All this info is in one column. This column is 11,000+ entries long.
I have column B which is 45,000+ entries long, and contains ONLY part numbers, like this:
325111
I would like to compare column B to find the matching results from within the text of column A, and put these matches into column C.
