How can I create a formula to add up how many cells in a column show a particular set of text? For instance; the column in my spreadsheet looks something like this:
MJR
DML
MJR
RJG
RJG
MJR
DML
I want to know how I can create a formula that will automatically tell me how many times "MJR" is listed; how many times "DML" is listed, and so on.
I would like to use the following code to see if the word "reservoir" shows up in any of the rows in a certain column. If it does I want to insert the formula = SUM(D7:D257)*0.1 into cell C2 and if it doesn't then I want to put a 0 into cell C2. I've tried many routes but can't get past the error if it can't find the word.
Range("B7:B257").Find(What:="Reservoir").Activate
I have a UDF which basically accomplishes a lookup. To do that I use this
Function name(number As String)
Select Case number
Case Is = "1"
name = "BOB"
.

I am setting up a charity accounts sheet, that will also calculate money raised from Raffles, so each raffle will have a name, I can do this by matching the amount with a description but wondered if I could calculate it by looking for specific words or reference in a cell
Sum all cells that the adjacent cell contains the reference "Raffle 0001" but not "Raffle 0002" this needs to be calculated on another cell
Sum all cells that the adjacent cell contains the reference "Rescue" this cell could contain other text as well, so could say "Rescue for Sweetie by Laura Herarty" or "Rescue for Bliss by Jane Telford" all need to be calculated.
Is there a formula to find a specific word through many columns? Between A1 and L4500 i got a lot of diffrent information. I want to show if there is any cells in the row with the specific text, a formula in column M. Etc. If C100 got "topside" a notice in column M

View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way of counting how many rows have cells containing a specific word. Some rows will have multiple cells with the word in and some will have none. I only want a count of the number of rows and not the number of times the word appears. How can i acheive this with VBA?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet with 12 coloums. In the last coloum are the ords "yes", "no", or is empty (null?). I need to find a way to have each row that contains the word "no" or is empty to be highlighted in red font and bold type. When the word "yes" is typed then the font is black and the type in normal. This allows me to see at a glance what orders have not been picked up or have problems.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make the included spreadsheet as idiot proof as possible as a lot is a stake. I have most functionality working well; however, not I would like to add a little more data validation that does not exist in the normal cell validation rule set.
I need all the input cells to validate that the cell contains the word "BOX" upon entry, otherwise throw a warning. This is because the data entry will be done by barcode and there are a couple barcode labels on each box. The one I want will include the word "BOX" somewhere in the code sequence.
Since a previous function in the Code locks the cell, they wont be able to fix the error. but it will alert them so they can make sure to scan in the proper barcode and not miss the box. Also, once I get something that works in the code, where would I put it? In the same code box as the previous script, underneath it, or somewhere else? So, bottom line, I need a script that check the cell for Text of "Box" otherwise throw a message box.
Let me start by stating that I am a novice at writing macro script. I am trying to write a script that will open and search a Word doc, find specific text in that document, and populate certain excel cells with that information.
Ex. of Word doc:
5.1.2.3 Install gasket [12], using bolt [5] and nut [8].
5.1.2.4 Uninstall gasket [12] and scrap gasket and fasteners.
I would like the script to search for and populate any number between the [ ] into a specific excel cell, also I would like it to identify and populate an excell cell with the associated step, e.g.: "5.1.2.3", which will be at the begining of that step (step could be several sentences long). Also, I would like the script to look for and identify/populate an excel cell with any number of words such as: "install", "uninstall", "break", "scrap", or "remove" also associated with that step.
if there is a way (without using a macro) to calculate just a specific column or selected area in a spreadsheet. It is a colossal spreadsheet and takes a few hours to calculate even just one sheet. I know you can go through it hitting F2 then enter a lot but that is getting tedious!
View 9 Replies View RelatedWe use a spreadsheet to log all transactions at our front desk. I've made a column that automatically calculates the time when a transaction is input into a row. The formula is as follows:
=IF(D5="","",IF(A5="",NOW(),A5))
This morning that formula stopped working on the computer at the front desk, returning a message about a circular reference. I can open that same spreadsheet on my computer as well as others in the office and it calculates fine, but of course on the one computer on which I need it to work, it won't ;P
All computers are using Excel 97. Presumably a setting has changed on the front desk computer that's affecting this calculation.

I'm working on a timetable for my boss and i'm trying figure out how to have vba detect when a specific set of cells gets an x typed into it and calculate 1 cell = 36.50 hours and input into the appropriate Sum column. The Sum Total is Column AR and i've put x's into some of the cells that will be containing them, i'm sure if i just get the basic code needed i will be able to implement it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to have a formula find a specific word in column L and return the sum from column E for the same fund from column C.
I tried using =SUMIF(L:L,"*annual*",E:E) but that gives me the sum of annual for the entire column. I need to be able to specify the fund.
word "annual" also appears in "semi annual" so I need to be able to separate the two.
I am trying to run a macro once a particular word shows up in the combo box. now in my chase i could try to use VBA code to run the macros such that once the arrow is used in the combobox to select a certain word a particular macro labled the same name as the word chosen would run.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a row (will always be row 3) where each cell contains a day of the week, the days repeats for a year or so, making the row almost 400 cells.
Like this,
Mo - Tu - We - Th - Fr - Sa - Su - Mo - Tu - We - Th - Fr - Sa - Su - and so on...
Though, A3 doesn't have to be "Mo" because the days in this case can change (A3 can start with "Tu"), hence I think I need a macro.
So if this row contains a weekend, "Sa or "Su" I want all the cells in the column beneath that which contains a specific value to be cleared.
Example, if "Sa" or "Su" has 3 values in the columns under them, all the values that contain "X" or "Y" has to be cleared.
Like this:
Rows (1,2,3...,)
1----
2----
3 Mo - Tu - We - Th - Fr - Sa - Su - .. and so on..
4 A --- B --- X --- Y --- X --- B --- Y
5 A --- B --- X --- Y --- X --- X --- X
6 A --- B --- X --- Y - --X --- Y --- C
After the macro it should be:
1----
2----
3 Mo - Tu - We - Th - Fr - Sa - Su
4 A --- B --- X --- Y --- X --- B ---
5 A --- B --- X --- Y --- X --- ---
6 A --- B --- X --- Y - --X --- --- C
Notice the two examples in the excel file.

I am trying to figure out a formula which will search the contents of 6 cells (o2, p2, q2,r2,s2,t2) for the word "sugar". If it is found in either of these cells, I would like the formula to result in "true" or "yes", if not, "false" or"no" would be the result.
Cells (o2, p2, q2,r2,s2,t2) contain text which can include the word "sugar" but will never contain only the word sugar.

E3 provides the start time of 4:00
H3 provides an end time of 15:30
If an employee works betwen the hours of 0:00 (midnight) to 5:59, this is considered DIFF hours and is therefore the number I am seaking. So for the data noted above, the total DIFF hours worked is 2 hours.

Im trying to add Cells K2,L2,M2,N2,O2
For instance Column K2 could have the number "2" in it, but in K3 it might be blank.
L2 could have the number 3 in it, but be blak in L3.
M2 could have 50 in it or could be blank.
What I want for P2 to say is 2&3, if the cells in K2 and L2 show the 2 and 3. If it has the 50 in M2 thought, I want it show it.
For example: C4=5,C5=18, and C6=7.
I want A1 to show 4,5,18,7 (the values of cells C4 to C6).
I believe I have done this before, about 10+ years ago.
i am having trouble putting together an IF Formula together with and/or. i need to do the following
if cells k8 and l8 and r8 are empty, then no data should show.
if cells k8 and l8 and r8 is zero, then show zero.
otherwise add all three cells.
i thought i should use if(and... that is all 3 cells must be empty or zero.
=IF(OR(ISBLANK(K8),ISBLANK(L8),ISBLANK(R8)), "no data", IF(OR(K8=0, L8=0, R8=0),"ZERO", K8+L8+R8))
i have tried if(and) and if(or) and no matter what i have tried it doesnt work

I'm working in excel2007:
I want to write a generic formula to calculate the difference of time between cells, the first being a real data point, such as
6/22/2007 8:53
minus a generic constant term using the same date and a given time, 8:30.
So, what I need is something like this:
6/22/2007 8:53 – (same mm/dd/yy @ 8:30)
6/22/2007 12:29 – (same mm/dd/yy @ 8:30)
6/25/2007 11:19 – (same mm/dd/yy @ 8:30)
I have a long list or work items that I track on a log on daily basis.Some work items are repeated twice or trice to input a certain comment.Therefore, when I try to calculate the total number of work items for the day using counta formula, if results in an inaccurate total since certain work items are repeated twice or trice. The work items consist of a 8 digit number.Example 8876098.
