Highlight (or Select) Cells From Row 1 Through A Numeric Var X In Column A
Jul 2, 2014
How do I select or highlight cells from row 1 through row x (a numeric variable) in column A? I'm eventually hoping to shift those cells in column A (from row 1 to x) to the right by one.
I’m trying to assign building and office keys to various personnel, by appointing different classification levels to each set of keys given out. Very similar in the way an administrator would assign permission levels to individuals.
Question: •Is there a way to pick up an array of non-sequential numbers from one sheet (values 1 -36) •Find those values which are assigned to columns laid out as a table, •Then highlight those found values
I’ve attached a dummy sheet to illustrate my question.
I have not attempted coding this because I wouldn’t know where to start. Theoretically is this even possible?
In cell A1 I have a countdown timer from an external source that counts down to 00:00:00 approximately every 10 minutes and then resets.
I need a macro to be triggered whenever 00:00:00 is reached.
The macro will select column AL and copy a range of cells (within AL) that contain numeric values only and paste these numeric values in the adjacent cells in column AM. It is important that the paste is values only and not formatting or formulas.
Column is being fed dynamic data from an external source and displays either #N/A or numeric values.
Highlighed the Column and Row of the selected Cell. I have seen someone using it. Whenever he click on any cell the related column and Rows clour change. For Example if I select Cell B5. The Column B and Row 5 change its colur from B1 to B5 and Row from Column A to Column B. If this option is already available in office 2010
I am trying to find a solution for highlighting cells in a column that are repeats, ie. >3. I also need these cells to only be highlighted if the adjacent cell in the next column contains specific text. I have tried using conditional formatting with a countifs formula to no avail.
In my spreadsheet, each row of data in Column B starts with 3 numerics (e.g. 001) followed by some text. For example:
Cell B2 contains '001 - Text for this cell'
Cell B3 contains '002 - Different Text for this cell',
Cell B4 contains '003 - Different Text for this cell', etc.
I have hundreds of rows which follow this format.
I have had to insert several rows in my spreadsheet in between existing rows which has thrown off the numbering in the first three positions of my Column B cells.
Is there any way to update the data in Column B so the text data in each cell is retained but the first 3 numeric values are updated and again sequential?
How do I get the cells in column "F" to highlight all negative numbers UNLESS the following 2 conditions are met: the number in column F = "-105" AND there is an "@" corresponding in column "C". In the attached file F5 & F7 are highlighted properly according to what I want, but F6 is not (since F6's value is "-105" AND C6's value contains an "@").
I am attempting to have a cell highlighted if the adjacent cells are visible, but no highlighting when the cells are hidden. For example, Cell D1 is highlighted when cells A1:C1 are visible, but not when cells A1:C1 are hidden. (this is for the group/outline feature)
I have a spreadsheet showing names, quality percentages and times taken to answer a call in 3 columns. I would like to highlight the cells that fall within the top 20% of those shown (e.g. if there are 100 quality percentages I want to highlight the top 20 not those over 80%) also the same with call length.
I have a column of numbers and times (mins and secs) and what would like to do is set a conditional format so that the cell turns a colour when the number of any cell is within the highest 20% and the other column turns a different colour when the time is within the lowest 20%.
I would like to highlight the cells in Column A the have numbers in them. Starting with that number shift down based on the number that many rows and highlight them.
What is the best way to highlight all cells in a column from bottom to top?
For example, if I'm in column O, row 138, what keyboard shortcut would I need to select ONLY and ALL cells from the row I'm currently on, (in this example, 138) to row 1 and ONLY in that particular column?
Keep in mind that the next time I may be starting at row 1,200, it could be different everytime.
I tried everything I could think of..
CTRL+A CTRL+SHIFT+A CTRL+HOME CTRL+SHIFT+HOME CTRL+UP ARROW CTRL+SHIFT+UP ARROW CTRL+PAGE UP CTRL+SHIFT+PAGE UP
and nothing worked to select everything in that column from the row I'm currently on, to row 1.
PART 1 - A record is created - The record is modified once/several times - Only the original record and the last modified record needs to be kept
PART 2 - The differences between the original and the last record need to be highlighted in the spreadsheet. - This has to be repeated for a whole bunch of rows
Currently I am manually deleting the rows and eye-balling the changes. I'm using Excel 2002. I have ASAP Utitilities as well. Although macros are cool, I was hoping I could try with an Add-in or software.
need to understand the easiest way of highlighting the highest and lowest number in a range of cells several times in the same column.
As I said the cell range will be in the same column. So highlight the highest number green and lowest number red in cells a3 to a9 and then repeat the same process again in cells a11 to a17 and so on.the cell references are an example.
So I have several separate sets of numbers in the same column.
Col A - budget items (description) Col B - budget dollars Col C - actual dollars Row 10 - summation Cols B and C
When the budget is prepared the actual dollars in Col C are equal to the budget dollars for all items. For instance the formula =b2 is placed in cell C2. As time passes the user records actual dollars in Col C for each item by entering the actual amount directly into the cell. Actual dollars do not become known all at the same time, so that Col C will contain a mixture of formulas and entered numbers.
How can I highlight the cells in Col C that have entered numbers rather than formulas.
I have a huge excel file (who doesn't ) and would like to create a macro to select cells between 2 blanc cells in a column. (Then another macro will continue to select all in the table for that specific range and copy-paste to another sheet. But this part is not relevant)
The details
The table will be like below.
So the macro should select between F2:F6. (then another macro will copy F6:A3 and cut-copy this range to another sheet); and when I re-run this macro this time it will copy the range of Model B..
The above code works fine when I have information stored in multiple cells (C9, C10, C11, etc.). However, if I only have data stored in C9, my selection is expanded to the last row. I need a way to select all the data up to first empty cell even if the only cell containing data is C9.
In cells A71:A140 I have the following formula: =IF(A4"";A4;"").
How can I select only the cells in range A71:A140 where the formula has returned a value (number or text) and not the blank cells? When I try ctrl + shift + down arrow, all cells in the range are selected...
I've been working on a macro which delivers a daily report. the report is made up of 4 sections (received orders, scheduled orders, pending orders and unusual orders) each section is topped by a title which is a merge of all columns (A through I) the problem I am having is that the first column displays case numbers (to be displayed in text or number formats) and the 7th and 8th columns are dates When I try to have the VBA select the first column to format as a number, it will select all columns due to the merged cells is there a way to format only non-merged cells of a columns
This is the section I currently use for formatting but it doesn't actually work, (everything ends up in a date format)
How would you select cell values from differing rows based on the name in an adjacent column. ie, if it says John, add that data to the source data, if not move on.
i am working on a userform that contains several controls one of which is a textbox ,everything is fine except that i need to know which textbox property to use in order to highlight the text writen inside the textbox, i know "setfocus" but thats not excatly what i need, i need to highlight the text inside the textbox.
example:
"textbox.setfocus" sets the focus onto the textbox without highlighting its content what i need is:
"textbox.ur suggestion" sets the focus onto the textbox & highlight its content, this way i will no longer have to clear the text using the backspace key to write another text
