I use this formula to calculate if a move is out of tolerance =IF(ABS(B1)>=1,"Y","N") This will work on most of the stuff we load. I would like to modify it to if b1 = "Crude" then use =IF(ABS(B1)>=.5,"Y","N"), or if B1 = "Resid" then use IF(ABS(B1)>=2.0,"Y","N"). Is it possible to include the 3 tolerance bands in one formula?

I need to be able to get a true/false from a tolerance percent.
Here is an example of what I am trying to do
cell a2 is Nitrogen
cell b2 is (Known gas%) 2.4800%
cell c2 is (unknown gas%) 2.4963%
cell d2 is =b2-c2 and I get the answer no trouble there. what I need is to take the answer in cell d2 and set a plus/minus 2% tolerance in cell f2 and get a true/false comparison.
I am successfully using VBA to check a cell on one sheet against a cell on another sheet.
How easy would it be to check if this is the same OR less than 2 or more than 3? I have done part of this using nested formulas but cant find anything to help me with the syntax in VBA
The code I am using is
If W1.Cells(a, 3).Value = W2.Cells(b, 3).Value Then
I have two numerical columns of different length. One presents the signal and another one the background. Most of the background numbers are found in the signal column but they are not exactly the same and not located in the same rows. The numerical values are the same within some tolerance that I can specify. What I am trying to do it to remove all the background values from the signal column.

My goal is to identify these compounds, and to ease this process I am trying to find a formula that would “line up” near identical masses while providing a blank if no mass was found in that run. For example, if I have:
Run1
185.041
196.073
200.454
667.175
Run2
185.040
196.074
398.452
667.175
Run 3…etc
I would like to have it arranged:
Run1Run2
185.41185.040
196.73169.074
200.4540.00000
0.00000398.452
667.175667.175
It would be important to have some sort of tolerance setting, as the readings are not always exactly the same. Also, I’d normally have about six runs of data to line up.
I am trying to replicate a method , it reads: 'any data point that changes by more than or less than 10% from the previous value, and does not remain at the new level for more than 6 days, should be removed.'
Thats a bit vague. The process is going to involve if statements, etc. I've attached an excel spreadsheet with some solutions I've tried. Neither of which work. The aim is to get the same answers as the highlighted column. Columns B and C replicate the method answer, but do not state the process. The letters L represent values less than 25. Its the letters D I'm trying to eradicate.
Below is a short segment of my excel spreadsheet:
A B
1020.00242-89.84
1020 -88.11
1021 -85.3
1021.494-80.41
1021.49 -86.98
1030.04 -89.4
1030.042 -88.26
1030.94 -79.98
1030.933-81.5
1030.961-85.87
1040.0418-88.77
1040.391-87.3
1040.291-82.94
1040.016-84.12
1049.82 -84.7
What I need to do is write a macro that will find duplicates in Column A, within a changeable tolerance, say 0.1 (10%).
After finding all duplicates within a tolerance in A, I need to make another "Master" worksheet with the Duplicates from A, and their counterpart in B. So if A1 and A4 where within 10% of each other, the "Master" worksheet would contain:
A1 B1
A4 B4
using the values, giving:
1020.00242-89.84
1021.494-80.41
I tried using SUMPRODUCT and some other functions but just can't seem to put my finger on this one. I'm sure it's not hard and am overlooking something.
I am trying to apply conditional formatting to multiple columns based on a percentage varience of the value in the first cell of each column.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to identify where a set of values 'agree' within a specified tolerance.
I have a list of scores from different sources, and wish to both average them (easy to do) but also to identify how well they 'agree' by flagging those which have a difference above a specified tolerance. The numbers are all integers, and the tolerance will be an integer.
To give an example, I might have cells with values (2,3,2,2) and these agree within a tolerance of 1. If I had cells of (2,4,2,2) these wouldn't agree. I'd like to flag (by the creation of an 'X' within a separate column) where these cells do not agree.
I've done this previously by using chained If and Or statements (e.g. if A1 = D1 or A1 = D1+1 etc etc) but this is laborious and means I have to change logic every time I add a new sample.
Is there a way of specifying a range of cells (e.g. A1,D1,H1, J1) and seeing if the values of these cells agree to within a stated tolerance? I'm happy to define named cells to specify and argument/attribute.
a lookup and match of two values.
For example, in Sheet1 I have a unique transaction reference number and a £ value.
eg. 60231568 £38.05
In the next sheet (Sheet 2), I have a summary of data, and I need to return the company name...
60231568 £38.04 Company X
60231568 £15.12 Company Y
60231568 £10.11 Company Z
60245871 £105.11 Company Q
The look up needs to match trans no, amount (within 3 pence threshold) and return in this example company X.
I have an unknown number of rows that represent parts and 6 columns that represent part dimensions. I need to find and output matching pairs of parts that are within certain dimensional tolerance ranges.
For example:
Dimension 1 Dimension 2 to Dimension 6
Part 1
Part 2
to Part X
-I would need the code to check if Dimension 1 of Parts 1 & 2 were within a certain range and if Dimension 2 of Parts 1 & 2 were within a range etc. then (if all of them were true) output them as a pair. Otherwise, it would continue to search for paired parts. Once a pair is found, those parts can't be used again. How can I do this?
I have a DDE linked cell that is constantly updating (cell A1), I want then to have a cell (cell B1) that changes only when cell A1 differs from value currently in B1 by a certain percentage, then check B1 for the same tolerance level against A1, and repeat. I can do this in a number of ways in VB, however when VB code is running causes the DDE link not to update and since the update is constant I cannot use selectionChange and Change VB Worksheet function result in the same error.
View 6 Replies View RelatedIt's a worksheet for testing milk tanks. The issue is as follows:
Column F = Chart Error/This can be either a positive or negative whole number
Column G = Tolerance/This is always a whole positive number
Problem is I want Column H = Status to say "Pass" or "Fail" based on meeting the Column G number. But it's only the number itself (not whether it's Positive or Negative) that matters in determining the P/F status.
Examples:
Column F= -20
Column G= 15
Column H= Fails
or
F= 20
G= 15
H= Fails
The formulas I've been coming up with will show one or the other as Failing but not both + or - numbers if they fail to meet the G Column tolerance number.
I was wondering if there is a formla that will delete a formula when it has done its calculation, or stop the formula from constantly updating.
I've got a formula
=IF(COUNTA(A1)=1,TODAY(),"")
When something is typed in Cell A1 the cell with the formula will input todays date.
Is there a formula that will stop this formula from updating, as when you go into the file on a different day the date would have been updated.
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.
Here is the scenario:
A B C D
BananasApplesOrangesTotal113=A1+B1+C1
I need to reference the formula in D1 with the cells headers names.
In a perfect world, it would take
=A1+B1+C1:
and produce:
=Bananas+Apples+Oranges

I'm having some trouble trying to get excel to input a formula into a cell. I'm still a novice at VBA right now, so I don't think my problem will be too much of a brain buster.
I want a formula in Cell A6 (and I already know it correctly works) in this format: =E6&VLOOKUP(I6,'FA-Fund Data'!B$1:C$2000,2,FALSE)&J6
Is it possible to write a formula that skips x number of cells and have the formula autoincrement as usual. For an examples lets say I want to skip 3 cells and I have entered in the cells listed:
A1= "1"
A2= "2"
A3= "3"
Then I type in the simple formula in the cell
B1= "=A1"
and then drag down but it skips 3 cells so then
B5= "=A2"
B9= "=A3"
If it didn't skip then
B1= "=A1"
B2= "=A2"
B3= "=A3"
this is just an example as I will be writing more complex formulas and need some thing that I can write into the formula so that it skips.
Something similar to this B1 "=A1(skip3cells)"
I would like to copy a formula in a cell and then paste only the text of the formula, but I can't figure it out. Basically, I would like to avoid going into the cells and absolute referencing or hitting F2, then copying the text.
When I hit "Ctrl C" to copy the cell, then hit "Alt/E/S/F/Enter" to paste the formula, it is just like a regular copy/paste formula-wise in that the references move.

I have a spreadsheet that contains a list of dates: What I need is a formula that will count the number of cells that hava a date more than 6 months old. I also would like the field automated so I don't have to change the date manually every day.
=COUNTIF(S5:S593,"<2012/06/18") This formula will give the correct read out, but I must change the date manually.
My attempts at adding a =today() command in place of the date result in 0 being the result (not correct)
This is what I have tried: =COUNTIF(S5:S593,"<"=TODAY()-"183")
In my attached spreadsheet example below, in the Rollup Data sheet, I have a formula (Cell: C17) that will give me the actual cost totals that has been invoiced on WBS Element (DWRRI-BW096-231) for a total of $35,004.81.
What I need the formula do is run a redundant check procedure on my new WBS Element (DWRRI-BW096-231) actual cost total formula in the Rollup Data sheet (Cell: C17) against/vs. what the SAP system provides in the raw SAP Excel export contained in the PTD-Actual Cost sheet for the WBS Element (DWRRI-BW096-231) actual cost total of $35,004.81 (Cell: F9) that's highlighted in the yellow row.
In the Rollup Data sheet (Cell: C18), I need this formula to perform a similar function the as the previous formula above it (Cell: C17), but it this formulas function (Cell: C18) would have a separate operation that would only look for and return the single/sole WBS Element (DWRRI-BW096-231) actual cost total contained in the PTD-Actual Cost sheet (Cell: F9).
In the Rollup Data sheet I could then compare my two WBS Element (DWRRI-BW096-231) actual costs totals, the first from the automated addition of all the individual matching WBS Element actual costs into an actual cost total (Cell: C17), the second (new formula I'm requesting) from the matching and return function of the single/sole WBS Element actual cost total (Cell: C18).
So, if the two separate WBS Element actual cost totals (Cells: C17 vs. C18) both equal $35,004.81, the formula in C17 is a success and has correctly identified and added all the actual costs contained in the PTD-Actual Cost sheet, but if the two separate WBS Element actual cost totals (Cells: C17 vs. C18) both do not equal $35,004.81, the formula in C17 failed for some reason and has not correctly identified and added all the required actual costs contained in the PTD-Actual Cost sheet.

I am trying to create a graph of my data at the end of each month. The graph will show a count of the number of instances of each category in the data.
For example:
A1 =TODAY()B1 =MONTH(A1)
Column A from A3 down = 1,2,3,4,W,H,L
Column I between I2 and I140 = multiple instances of 1,2,3,4,W,H,L
July
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A3)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A4)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A5)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A6)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A7)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A8)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A9)),"0")
=IF($B$1=7,(COUNTIF($I$2:$I$140,$A10)),"0")
My problem is that when it comes around to August or the next month, I want the final count of July to be fixed/frozen so it won't change from the 1st of the month. I can then use the July column's data for my graph.
Can a formula convert itself into a value or freeze itself after certain criteria has been fulfilled?
i have two excel files which are data and master..both files will be use for salary calculating.. the vlookup formula will be use in master files for dragging the salary data from Data files..the formula as follow VLOOKUP(B4:B225,'D:Salary[Data.xls]AUG'!A$1:F$65536,6,FALSE))
the vlookup working fine to me.. but my problems is i want the data to be auto calculated when they have same value in two columns.. or if the name is similar/match in two columns (one for salary and another one for overtime), the salary should be auto calculated.
Data files will contain of these:
a:Employee ID
b:employee name
c:Employee salary/Overtime
Master files will contain of these:
a:Employee ID
b:Emplyee Name
c:Employee Nett Salary (that will be dragging from Data files)
is there any formula that i can used to combined with my vlookup formula?
