How Do I Get Concatenate To Display Blank Instead Of False?
Dec 9, 2008
I am using concatenate to create a list of bottles based on other data, so that each cell contains a different combination of bottles.
The problem is that the list appears but there is also FALSE for every bottle that doesn't relate to that cell.
Is there a way to create a formula such that nothing appears if it is not true?
And is there a shorter way of writing what I am after, I can't quite finish the formula becaise it is so long.
Desired results obtained via IF =IF(B2>0,A2&" , ",A2)&IF(C2>0,B2&" , ",B2)&IF(D2>0,C2&" , ",C2)&IF(D2>0,D2,"")
one , two , three , four one , two , three one , two one
Is there any smarter, shorter formula via Concatenate and Substitute or other formulas ?
My closest match, but not good enaugh is =SUBSTITUTE(CONCATENATE(A2&", "&B2&", "&C2&", "&D2), ", , ", " ") [ returna 2 commad ] one, two, three, four one, two, three, one, two one ,
I need to display FALSE in cell A5 where cell A1 displays the words "completed", "cancelled", "Rejected" or "Resolved" AND do not have a corresponding date in cell A2. If there is a date in A2 - I want to display true.
However, if A1 displays the words "Approved", "Submitted for Approval" "In Development" or "App for IA" I want A5 to display True where there is a date in A2 and a False where there is no date in A2.
I am still having bother with if statemnts (within a cell in excel - not a macro) Sicarii kindly assisted me the other day with this...
=IF(A1="&","V",IF(A1=" &"," V")) *note* there is nothing set in this for FALSE.
How do I get the statement to return nothing (i.e.: have "" in the return) instead of 'false'? To explain further, I have in a column, the following: & ^ & (i.e.:'(space)&') & 33
I have three formula in a spreadsheet, all of which should return a number (which they do) or show blank. However, two of the formula return 'FALSE'. The formula are as follows:
Where I would like it to return a Blank cell if H16 is blank. However it always puts False in the cell because there is a Vlookup that is hidden H16. Is there a way I can make it return as a blank cell instead of false.
I've written a sumproduct formula, which does what I want it to do; but it returns a zero in false condition, instead of a blank. I've tried several things, but don't seem to be progressing very far. Here's the formula that I ended up with.
How wud I find out the total number of rows in a column, that are non blank? Value "False" and N/A are considered as blank cell , but a cell with --> one or more space " " is allowed.
is there a way that i can insert cell values in a userform i have data which needs to be displayed on 33 lines line 1 cell value from d10 then space cell value from d185 then space cell value from d186 this needs to be repeated line 2 cell value from e10 then space cell value from e185 then space cell value from e186 line 3 cell value from f10 then space cell value from f185 then space cell value from f186 line 4 cell value from g10 then space cell value from g185 then space cell value from g186 this continues trough to line 33
As long as 04:Q4 are ALL non-blank cells, the formula works. However, if ANY of the cells are blank, it displays the green rectangle in N4, but it doesn't offer the Trace option.
I am attempting to concatentate several cells (10 to be exact). I only want to include cells that are not blank in the output. I searched the topics and found a similar problem. I attempted to modify that solution to fit my needs but I obviously do not quite understand exactly how it worked. I have attached a sample. The expected results are that if in row 1 columns a through j have any value they will then be concatenated or joined in some other fashiion seperated by a comma. I only want to include non blank values. I have placed the code that I attemted to use in this post.
I wish to Concatenate contents of several columns into a separate column, i tried using the following "column1 & column2 & column3 etc..." however with this the blank cells get concatenated too...What should is use so that contents get concatenated but blank cells are ignored?
I have a table arranged by columns into SETS of results. I am looking for a way to mark all the columns of a set as false if any one column of the set is false.
when I use the =sum command of a certain cell and that cell contains no data I am getting a $0.00. I understand why, but can I display just a blank cell if no data is found in the cell?
I am using this formula, but if the referenced cell is blank, it keeps putting a 0 in the cell. I want the cell to be blank if the referenced cell is blank.
but i need to somehow incorporate a formula that only shows this if a cell has a value present.
I know as an example its something like:
=IF(C2="","",C3)
but i dont know how that would go in my existing formula as i dont know how to stack IF statements?? (a very kind person on this forum did the original formula btw)
the cell that i need to have as the 'blank or not' is D4.
I've got a spreadsheet where i need the user not be able to save the workbook if there is a blank row in a range of task which run from A4-last cell with data entered.
I would like it to say that "the row will be deleted, please amend"
After the check has been completed or varified it saves
I have attached a spreadsheet that is causing me difficulty. I currently have a formula that is displaying in V3 the highest grade when it looks up the data in A3,H3 & O3. Then this is repeated for W3 when the data is looked up in B3, I3 & P3 etc etc... BUT
I need the formula to work if only block one is complete i.e. (1 Explore grade, 1 Plan Grade, 1 Make Grade etc).(please see the example to understand what is meant by a block)
The current formulae will only display a grade if all cells are complete i.e., A3,H3 & O3.
So I am looking for the formula to:
If A3 has a grade in it I wish V3 to display it because its the only grade. (even if H3 & O3 are blank)
As and when H3 has a grade filled in I want the formula to select the highest and display it in V3 (again even if O3 is blank)
As and when A3, H3 & O3 has a grade in it I wish the formula to lookup and display the highest in V3
Ans this repeated for all different areas, Explore, Plan, Make etc.
If i make the listfillrange of my combobox a named range, is there a setting in the combobox that allows it to ignore any blank cells in the named range.
Lets say my named range is cells A1:A5 but only A1 has a value, the rest are blank.
The combobox drop down menu will display the value of cell A1 and then 4 blank rows. Can i make the combobox igoner the blank rows and only display cells A1 in the drop down menu?
Been doing pretty good up till now but I can not figure out how to get a combo box in the first blank cell of column A. I am using the named range 'Units' and there are almost 900 of them so I need the combo box.
