Get Information In Next Two Cells Over From Left Most Cell
Mar 15, 2013
My question requires me to do a Vlookup question that needs to get the information in the next two cells over from the left most cell. In short I need to put info from two different cells from the same row and look up value into one cell.
I have a 2010 excel sheet containing 14 columns and 45082 rows in total. I am quite illiterate when it comes to writing macros but I know that what I need can be achieved with a set of codes.
To be more clear, I inserted two tables below. The first one represents the current data structure, and the second one is the way I want my data to look like.
Current data structure looks like Variable 1 Variable 2 Variable 3
I'm having a bit of a block with an index/match formula that I am trying to create for the attached spreadsheet. i.e. I need to populate cell J3 with the info the corresponding letter contained in the table to the far left. The numbers of reference to match are the 'zones' in H3 and J2.
In my column B, I have different words like Balance, Notes, Expense, etc. Is there anyway I can look into column B, and if I get the word Expense, then take the number directly to the right of it (from column C) and SUM it? Not sure if it matters, but let's say I want to put it in cell C2. I figure this will allow me to do this like insert, delete rows in the future, but my equation in cell C2 will still add up what I need.
I have a range selected (A4:C15).I would like to deselect the range and make A4 the active cell. Is this possible without a macro?
With a macro, one could use: Application.Goto Selection.Cells(1)
I generally select a large number of cells and would like to go back to the start cell in the range. I could do it by pressing the left and right arrow keys but is there a shortcut that will allow me to do the same?
This function seems to work well, however there is one thing I want to add to it somehow, and I can't seem to make it work. I want the cell to show a zero if there is no information in cells C13 and/or E13.
I imported a CSV file into Excel, and the data from the CSV file all ligned up into one column. For example: I have (date, price) both in one column. I need to separate these values into two respective columns.
I am receiving a new report from an external system. Unfortunate the system delivers many information within one cell, and it is not possible to reconfigure. These information are separate by a semi-colon or a semi-colon + space. separate the information in separate cells?
I downloaded a massive dataset in .csv format to work with. My first problem is that I'm having trouble sorting the dataset. When I open the .csv-file every bit of information comes up in the A-column instead of having INFORMATION1 in the A-column INFORMATION2 in the B-column and so on.
I am trying to create a formula that will change the cell color in a range of cells in the row. I want the color to change based on the information in a particular cell appearing on a different sheet. What sheet the information is on determines the color the cells change to.
Example: I have 4 sheets I am working with. We will call them A; B; C; and D. I would like the color of cells A5-I5 on sheet D to change to red when the information in cell A5 from Sheet D shows up in any cell in column A on sheet A. If the information from cell A5 sheet D appears in any cell in column A from Sheet B then the color will be yellow, etc.
I've recorded a Marco copying and pasting information from one cell to other cells and some of the copying functions paste to two cells. I just need this to loop through all information I'm copying from the the new cells.
I have a spreadsheet which contains 39 columns with a header row. The number of rows varies per spreadsheet. I'm running into a problem with highlighting(painting yellow) cells. Really the problem is selecting the cells to be highlighted. The macro is skipping some of my code completely and in other cases leaving some cells unhighlighted.
1. All blank cells in row AG should be painted yellow.
2. If column AF contains a cell with number 900 or greater, then the cell in AG (same row) should NOT be painted yellow.
3. All blank cells in rows AC and G should be painted yellow. Some spreadsheets may not contain blank cells.
Problem with the VB is not performing the code after the first command. It will highlight MOST of the cells in AG but for some reason it is leaving a few blank ones unhighlighted. The blank ones are usually at the bottom of the rows. I have no idea why it would miss these.
I believe the "ucase" tag is incorrect since its looking for a number but I am not sure what to put in its place and if I use something else should I dim it as ""?
I've attached an excel spreadsheet which contains a sample to this problem. I've also attached what it should look like if my code worked.
I have a column that is giving unwanted value . dont know the reason as that excel file has been created by some other guy and I just started working on it .
My Question is how to move to 2 cells left(A for example) from from that unwanted value column. and check if A is equal to cell above it , means B Cell(Row above A but same column).
As my excel file is totally based on Forms, Macros, I am not quite familiar with macros.
Is there any way to put if condition in one cell (column) and drag it all the way down which should work for all the values in these 3 column.
And also if A=B then I want to make that unwanted value cell="".
how to set up a formula that would count the number of numbers in a column, only if the cells before those cells are blank. In plain English: total the number of occurences in each column, provided the value in cellrow is the first occurence in that row starting at column A. E.G
A B C D John x x Dave x x Kyle x x Bob x x
Count would return under Column A, 1; under Column B, 1; (because row John has a value in AJohn it is ignored), under Column C, 2; under Column D, 0.
I am trying to count the # of empty cells to the left. I trying to work out how many days since an employee has missed. In this worksheet, a letter is placed in the cell corresponding to the day they missed. And I need to count backwards from a date (say: July 31st) to the last day with a letter in it.
Here's a weird one: I can't get some of my cells to align to center/left/right. Both the buttons on the toolbar and Format->Cells->Alignment won't work. The kicker is that other cells on the same sheet will center/left/right just fine. Is there some kind of formatting protection I inadvertently set?
I'm trying to do is check each Row and move the last 3 Columns of data in each Row to the left so they fall under the headings NHA2, NHA1, and OEM PN (Columns U, V, and W). Columns A and B are temporary. Column A utilizes the formula "= COUNTA(B2:AG2)" to count the number of cells in the row that contain data. Column B utilizes the formula "=COUNTA(C:C)" to count the total rows of data in the active worksheet. Columns A and B will be deleted at the end of the Macro.
The GOAL (END RESULT) is for Columns A through W (and ONLY these Columns) to contain data (keeping in mind that Columns A and B will be deleted at the end). If some rows have Column W (and beyond) blank, then I want to MOVE data from Columns U & V over to V & W and then COPY data from Column T into the [currently] blank Column U.
I've been trying to get the Macro to start in the last row and, using CASE Statements, delete the proper range of cells and SHIFT LEFT as it counts backwards towards the first row. I'm not too sure this is the best approach and could really use some advice from the experts! I can provide a "test" file if necessary ... the test file I've been working with is approximately 6.5MB, but I can delete most of the 14,287 rows and still give a good representation of how the data varies.

I am having trouble filling a formulae series to the left on one spreadsheet, the fomulae being references to another sheet.
For example, I have two sheets 'Mtce Options' and 'Base Case'. In 'Mtce Options' I have the following formulae
A B C 1='Base Case'!A15='Base Case'!D15='Base Case'!G15
I want to fill to the left, incrementing the column references by a factor of 2 each time, eg. next two should be ='Base Case'!J15 and ='Base Case'!M15.
However, if I autofill to the left by highlighting A1, B1 and C1 or just B1 and C1 all I get is an inappropriate reference such as ='Base Case'!D15 or ='Base Case'!F15, respectively, in D15.
I am trying to find a method for deleting empty cells in a range and shift cells left upon deletion automatically. I could do this manually, but with 3000 rows of data it could be a long task. I have attched a small spreadsheet to show what I am looking for.
I think I did something but I don't know What. I select a cell that has a 20 font Size I enter a number it show at the 20 Font. Now when I go some ware else in the work unselecting that cell the number went to font 10 and droped to the left bottom of the cell. When I select the cell again and select the the left middle and right to move the number it does not responed. It happens everyware in the worksheet.
I need to write some code that will write a sum formula and include all the cells to the left of the active cell, however this range is variable. I suspect it would be something like:
I am using Data Validation and I don't want the user to go past a cell without putting in an entry. When I leave the box (ignore blank) unchecked it doesn't do anything after I have protected the document.
I need assistance in shifting cells to left based on three (3) specific text values in column B. There are tons of data and extra lines and stuff but consistently these three (3) text values are consistently not aligned and I simply need to shift entire row 1 space to the left. I can do the long and tedious process of going through them all but is there a macro which I can play that does it instantly...
I have a spreadsheet which is going to be populated everyday from figures from another spreadsheet using autofilters and the very useful SubTotal worksheet function. I'll attach a copy of the work in progress, also there will be a macro in here which Everytime the user presses update, it copies a range of cells and formatting and pastes it to the next available cell on the right. I've also drawn the movement of the cells i'd like The reason being, is that its going to give day to day, up to date figures from a datasheet.
The problem i have is that when i come to populate the grid which has been copied, i need a calculations to populate each cell in the Less<1week column, then when it gets to the bottom, move Back to the top, and accross to the right 1, and then populate down again, and so on until the end of the grid in question, i dont think i can use a for/next loop becuase it will be a different column address everytime. I dont really like loops, but i feel this needs it.
I am using (in Column "B") the formula: =IF(A2=A3."",1), copied down as required, to uniquely identify entries in Column "A". In this instance "10", "10A", "10B" and "10C" located in "A5" through "A11" are viewed as the same. Is it possible to have the formula recognize the enties in "A5:A11" as a unique entry and therfore have "1" entered into cell "B11"? The suffix, if used will always be A thorugh Z.
