Going Down Range Summing Cells Until Number Is Reached?
Aug 7, 2012
Im struggling how to even start writing this code. What im trying to do is go down column S from row 2 down and sum up each cell until the sum = 700 then delete all the rows below that with some thing in them.
In my financial modelling I often have a calculated number of months of inventory. This number varies. I need to use this number to calculate the actual inventory value. For eg. it may be 3.2 months of inventory; in this case I need to sum 3 cells (current month, current month -1, current month -2) plus 0.2 of the fourth cell (current month -3)
But I may need to change the number of months of inventory to, for example, 4.2. In this case I would need the sum of four cells plus 0.2 of the fifth cell etc etc.
I have to work on a sheet where the value in the cells is from a call to the GETPIVOTDATA() function. This may return #REF depending on the data. I need to sum a range of such cells treating a #REF value as zero. In another part of this sheet this is done by {=SUM(IF(ISERROR(D6:D17),0,D6:D17))} but as soon as I go to edit the formula the {} disappear and the formula wont work if I edit it. Putting the {} back in manually doesn't work either. How can I repeat what has been done before. (The sheet was originally created by consultants who have long gone and I have inherited it!)
I often find myself in the following situation - I will highlight a range of numbers to see what the sum is in the bottom right hand corner (the cells which I select areoften not all within the same column or are not consecutively listed under each other) .Depending on the circumstances I will then type out a SUM formula with the range to put that value somewhere in the spreadsheet - the problem being that I have to deselect the cells and then re-select these within the formula. When I have selected many numbers, it is not always easy to remember every number which I included.
As a way to remember the numbers, I format those cells in a certain colour before I do the SUM formula and would then include only those coloured cells in the formula. I would like to avoid this extra bit of work.
I am new to VBA but would like some form of code that allows me sum the contents of a selected range and paste that formula beneath the last value in the range - the range would have been selected before running the maco.
We have a form that requires descriptive comments to be entered into several rows of merged cells. My goal is to have the form be able to automatically dropped down to the next row of merged cells when the current row of merged cells reaches a maximum number of characters.
And finally, the last row of merged cells would not allow any more characters than the maximum assigned but not advance to another cell automatically.
The rows I am working with specifically are: Merged Cells F23:R23; A24:R24; A25:R25; A26:R26;...A29:R29
In column f i have the following formula {=CELL("address",INDEX('Product Price'!$D$1:$D$1014,MATCH(B2&E2,'Product Price'!$A$1:$A$1014&'Product Price'!$D$1:$D$1014,0),0))} that returns the cell address from where i want to start my sum function.
My sheet named "Product Price" looks like this: 255Mar-0839508R 45.00256Apr-0839539R 45.00257May-0839569R 45.00258Jun-0839600R 45.00259Jul-0839630R 48.00260Aug-0839661R 48.00261Sep-0839692R 48.00262Oct-0839722R 48.00263Nov-0839753R 48.00264Dec-0839783R 48.00265Jan-0939814R 48.00266Feb-0939845R 48.00267Mar-0939873R 48.00268Apr-0939904R 48.00269May-0939934R 48.00
I now require a formula in column g that will count how many times starting from the cell in given in column f it added the amounts downwards to reach the amount in cell d of the "calculator" sheet - it must thus add d256+d257+d258... until it is bigger or equal to the amount in cell d.
How do I disable a range of cells when a numerical limit is reached?
Here is the scenario:
I have two worksheets, one called “Items” which contains a list of Items and their weight. The other sheet is called “Container” and displays a Type of container in cell B2, the weight capacity of that container (the numerical limit) in cell C2, and a range from B5 to B14 that needs to be filled out by an end user. The items in B2:B14 are chosen using Validation, form the Items sheet. The weight is brought in via a vLookup, and the total weight is calculated as items are added.
My problem is that I have yet to find a way to “disable” any extra cells in B5:B14 once the weight limit is reached, and clear the last cell data was selected for, all without destroying the Validation for the cells in range B5:B14.
I have tried many different things in the Worksheet Change Event, but none have yielded the desired result.
I am trying to create a special workbook for my asphalt project. After inputting all of the day's truck information, I want to add up the total tons and then for the program to highlight which truck puts the total tonnage at or slightly above 500 tons. I'm not sure if "isolating is the right term to describe what I wish to do or not, but my whole workbook will be based off of similar actions like what I'm requesting. Here is a portion of my sheet:
I have a spreadsheet with time values incremented in column A.
In column K, there are numerical values that correspond to the time in column A.
Elsewhere, a specific time is chosen from which to begin the summing of the values in column K.
I need to be able to sum the values in column K until preset values are reached. Then I need to know at which corresponding time value the summing loop stops.
For example, a time of 11:00 AM is chosen as the "start time". I want to sum the values in column K until they are >= 2.000.
At that point, I need to know what the cell value was in colum A that is in the same row as the last cell value in column K.
I can't seem to do it with simple Excel functions without falling into a self referencing loop. So what I need is for a VBA loop to lookup the appropriate values in column K, sum the values, check the total, and continue the loop until the preset total is reached. Then look up the value in column A in the last row of summed values, and return that value.
We need to reach a cell value by using increment of another cell value. But ideally the results will all be in one cell.
Now to make it a little more advance there could be an overhang of the board in A3 which would need to be deducted from the first increment.
Example :
A1 = 5193mm (Lenght of beam) A2 = 600mm (Width of board) A3 = 200 (Overhang) A4 = 400 - 1200 - 1800 - 2200 - 2800 - 3400 - 4000 - 4600 (End Result, The formula wont do the next sum as it exceeds A1)
Of course the vaules of A1 and A2 will vary but that shouldnt make any difference to the formula.
I have a simple sumif formula that says =SUMIF(W61:W112,"<30",J61:J112). In column W, there are values ranging from 0 to 5000. If the formula is written like it is above, it excludes summing values from column J when the cell in column W equals 0. Why is this? I can just add another function that says sumif "=0", but I don't think I should have to.
I'm trying to develop a new daily timesheet for my production workers, where non-production items are recorded in 15 minute intervals. The user would put in "Clock in" by the corresponding time, and the same for "Clock out" at the end of the day. Any non-production items will be type in next to their appropriate time. Since clock in and clock out times will vary, I need to set up a formula that searches the array of cells for the day, finds the "Clock in" and "Clock out" values, and counts any blank cells in between them. Basically the blank cells will equal production time, and the result of the Count function will be multiplied by 0.25 to get the hours.
I am having a very difficult time finding a way to set the "Clock in" and "Clock out" cells as the range for the Count function, because it won't always be the same cells. What would be the best way to automatically have excel find the cells containing these values and set them as the range criteria for a Count function?
The formula at the bottom was one of my initial attempts, but it didn't work. I took out the '=' for the screenshot, so that wasn't the problem.
I have a spreadsheet with two columns of data. Column A consists of identifying 6-digit numeric code and column B is the dollar value associated with the code in column A. There are numerous cases where the column A code is repeated, but with a different dollar value in column B. The column A value could be repeated two, three, or many times. What formula could I use to create a new set of columns that rolls up the instances of recurrence?
I have a set of 50 large spreadsheets each with the same size and structure.
I have a summary sheet which contains cells that each contain a single-cell 3D range across all the sheets.
But I'd like to modify this summary sheet to find a way of summing a subset of the 50 sheets according to a given criteria.
I imagine this could be a single criteria added to one cell in each of the 50 sheets.
Or perhaps it could be a letter in each sheet's name. eg, if the letters used as criteria are say G, P and S, I would name the sheets something like G1, P2, G3, S4, P5, ....S49, G50.
Perhaps this could be achieved with the indirect function or will it be necessary to resort to VBA?
I am trying to select a range of numbers based on an active cell. I then want to sum those numbers and have that total reported to a specific cell.
For example:
Say I have a column with a list of dates (Jan/04 thru July/06). I want the user to be able to click on any given field and have that field plus the 11 fields above it summed and reported. Any help?
I came up with something like
ActiveCell.Resize(12, 1).Select
This only selects the data from the active cell and goes down...I need the opposite. I need it to select the 11 cells above the active cell (plus the active cell) and sum that data.
I am working on a sheet which calculates payroll. I have a list of people in column A, and in column B, i have their different professionnal status. Their wages vary according to their professionnal status and are in another column C. How can i sum up the wages of only certain people, based on their common professionnal status in column B?
I receive spreadsheets which tell me where samples are located in 96 well plates. The plates' rows are lettered A-H, and the columns are numbered 1-12. So, for example, the first well is labeled A1, the 12th is A12, the 13th is B1, and the 96th is labeled H12.
When I receive the spreadsheets, there are cells that tell me which wells are occupied. For example a cell will contain "A2 - B7" or "D3-F12" (sometimes with the spaces before and after the "-", and sometimes not." I need a program that will tell me that "A2-B7" (or "A2 - B7") means there are 18 wells occupied.
I've tried a few things, but a lot of problems arise when I try to do anything with names like "A1" because excel already defines "A1" as cell A1. Do you guys have any ideas? Am I being clear?
I would like to know how many entries/ cells a particular named worksheet range has. (This named range is not a global name range, but a local one only for one worksheet!)
However, my code results in 0 always, althought the worksheet in question is defined (not nothing), I see that the name range is defined properly (Edit -> Define) and refers to serval non-empty cells.
I would like to know how many cells in general a particular named worksheet range refers to. What do I do wrong?
Const strRngNmeCllShRawIntBlPre = "preBlRng" 'name of the named range
If Not wksTarget Is Nothing Then intPreBl = Application.WorksheetFunction.Count(wksTarget.name & "!" & strRngNmeCllShRawIntBlPre) MsgBox intPreBl End If
I have a spreadsheet which has data in rows. I need to sum the first 5 values from the left of the range which are greater than zero. BUT if there are less than 5 non zero values present I want to sum from the right of the range.
First condition: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 The function would return: 1+2+3+4+5 = 15
Second condition: 0 0 0 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Function would return: 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 = 30
Third condition: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 8 9 10 The function would return: 10 + 9 + 8 = 27
I have had success with: =B4+SUM(SMALL(IF(I4:O4<>0,I4:O4),ROW(1:5))) (using ctrl shift enter) BUT it crashes when faced with the third condition.
I would also like to avoid ctrl-shift-enter functions if I can as I don't have much success copying them around the spreadsheet.
I have three columns. Lets assume i have One header row and 3 rows of actual data and the 4th row is for totaling column B values.
Column A is a col of "Ingredients", column B is the amount of the ingredient (from col A) used. The value is either in Oz or Lbs. Can be either. Column C is a yes or no column. If the value is Yes then i want to have the value in col-B included in my overall sum which is in the 4th row. If the value is No then i do not want the value in col-b (in that row) included in the overall sum.
Trying to do the following. Look at a range of cells in a row, say A1- H1. Sum the last three cells that have a number in them versus being blank. So, let's say the last numbers in row 1 are in cells B1, F1 and H1, but in row 2 they may be in cells E2, F2 and G2.
