Im trying to enter an employees name into a data list. I have a program that generates a list including their employee number into column B. I want to write something to put the employee name into column C. Im working with 60+ employees so i dont think if statements will work? anyway to reference a chart or table with the numbers and names on it?
View 9 RepliesIn sheet1, (B2 & C2) are the numbers entered by the user. After they entered, it will create rows of table according to the number of groups they entered on the respective sheets.
how do I let it create the groups itself?
I would like to be able to enter a number in cell a1. Let's say 44.2. I want that number to actually be locked in as 100'-0" in cell b1. Below in the next row I want to enter another number, lets say that one is 41.5 into cell a2. And then I want the cell b2 to return the difference in feet and inches. So ultimately the only cells that I will entering data into is in column a and column b would just return information.
The other thing I am trying to figure out is a formula for converting decimal feet to feet and inches (which I have found) but a formula that is less than 40 characters.
if I use the following formulae in A1 and fill it down, I get the serialization 1,2,3....etc. =(INT((ROW()-1)/1)+1)*1
But if I begin formulae at A11 and fill down, I get 11,12,13.....etc. Now I type 1 in A11, how do I modify the formula so that A12 will be 2, A13 will be 3, A14 will be 4 and so on ?
I am entering values in columns AV and BD of the attached spreadsheet. Rather than manually editing each value to adopt the decimal place value of the adjacent cell is there a formula that can achieve this before the value is entered? The decimal place values are determined using a VLOOKUP table (column3) on the NES tab.

e.g. If you have agreed not to input the number 7 more than 3 times in a

I want to pick the last number entered in column and put it in a formula. Is there an easy way to do this, or do I have to stack a lot of IFs in a string.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have been working on a spreadsheet with 3 sheets and have done everything except the last function which I just can't work out. Data is entered on the first sheet in a list with an item number, description, dates etc and then finally, if they are a certain type of item, a variation, a 'variation number' in a column.
The next sheet is then called 'variations' and here starts my problem. I want to have a formula that picks up if a variation number has been entered on sheet one in the 'variation number' column and if so, add that item into this sheet, in order.
So to summarise, I need sheet 2 to search on sheet 1 in a specific column for numbers 1-30(ish) for a series of items. I then need sheet 2 to list each of these in order, copying over each item that goes with the number from sheet 1 in the same format.
I am trying to simply count the number of times each entered name appears on my list IE if John Smith appears 3 times in one sheet, in a column after his name would simply be the number 3. I tried this doing =COUNTIF(A8,A:A) Where A8 is his name and column A is all names. I keep a return value of 0 every time!!!!! I even tried =COUNTIF(A7,A12) where they were both the same names. And yes,I did do Ctrl + Shift - enter

I clicked on Custom then =LEN(A10)=6 which works when i enter more or less than 6 characters, however it lets you paste in something which has more than 6 charters.
I want to incoroprate into my Workbook a sheet with a list of phone numbers, that sheet can be added to and more numbers entered if necessary and will be called "DATA"
The questions is this. If one of those numbers in the "DATA" sheet is entered in any other sheet in the workbook can the cell that number has been written on (not the one on the data sheet) be made to change colour?
My colleague in accounts has a sheet that lists all the invoices and values and other 'accounts department things' that I know little about.
Anyway, she has to manually input all the invoices she receives onto this excel document but sometime receives duplicate invoices (& inputs them twice be accident).
Is it possible for someone with macro skills to create a macro to run in a worksheet so that if she enters a number in a given column more than once an alert box appears to tell her. I've summarised the 'rules' below*
*Can is be written so that I can edit which column the alert is based on?
[In (for example) column F is a list of invoice numbers - all unique]
If user types a number in column F that matches a number that already exists, show alert box "THERE APPEARS TO BE A DUPLICATE ENTRY IN COLUMN F"

Any further clarification, let me know i'll try to post a blank sheet if my boss lets me.
Example;
Cell 1 equals a number
Cell 2 is the number entered into cell one times(X) 35 up until the number 6 is entered. Any number above 6 is Times 50. So. 1-6 is times(X) 35 while 6+ is Times(X) 50.
I am. Here's another example:
A salesperson gets a commission of $35 for each widget sold up to the first 6 widgets. If he sells more than six widgets, he gets paid $35 for the first 6 and $50 for anthing over 6.
The sales person will enter the number of widgets sold into a cell and the formula should do the rest.
I have been stuck on this for months.
I've done lots of looking on the forum, and the helpfiles, but just cant seem to format my text box properly! Its a form where the user inputs to the text box. I want to control thatway where they enter numbers e.g 05052008 and it gets converted to 05/05/2008 or 05-05-2008. I've tried a range of things, but am really stumped!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI created this formula =G2*2.9%+.3
what I am trying to do is take the number in the G column multiply it by 2.9% and add 0.30. For instance if 20.00 is in the G2 cell, the number I want the formula to produce is .88
the formula works for me but what happens is the rest of my sheet that does not have any numbers in the G column gets filled with .30
How do I prevent the formula from calculating if the G column is blank?
I have Two Sheets in same workbokk.
Sheet1 Sheet2
Sheet1 B2 = "any numeric value (whole digit i.e 10 or 55 like) - user input "
Sheet2 Starting point is cell B3.
What need to happen - As soon as user enter number in Sheet1 B2 = any value say, 20 then,
Sheet2.Select
Range("B3").select
suppose i assign value p as,
dim p
sheets("sheet1").select
p = range("B3).value
now here i want to indetify this number, i.e.- 20 (User input) and then as soon as user enter this value,
step 1 - sheet2 get select.
step 2 - from B3 sheet2, by row wise it select next 20 row as well next 20 columns.
for eg.- from B3, the data should select like following,
B3 to U22.
and this selected area highlight with single border only. That's it.Therefore, my main problem is how excel will understand this numeric number ?
I am trying to use VLOOKUP to auto-populate a description from an entered part number. After checking up on how to do this in several different places I applied this formula to the relevant cell but all that it returns is #N/A.
I am very confused as all seems to be correct, but I am new to this and I am sure I am missing something silly. :P
On entering a part number into cell C13 on sheet 'Stores Receipt' it should search and find that number in column A on sheet 'Product List', it should then return the adjacent description from column B on sheet 'Product List' and show this in cell C17 on sheet 'Stores Receipt'.... Sounds simple hey! :D
The formula used is:

View 9 Replies View RelatedI need a formula that will calculate the number of days from a date entered into cell A1 to today's date. Whether it's before or after todays date. Example:

I am creating a spreadsheet for inventory use. I want to have a running total in (1) cell based upon a new/different number being entered into a different cell.
Column B, Row 1 (This will be a new/different number entered every day - inventory in or out, so positive or negative number)
Column D, Row 1 (This will be a running total based on numbers inserted in previous 2 columns)
Basically what I have is a key inventory. So there is column A with key number, B should be keys IN, C should be keys OUT, or ideally B would be IN and OUT meaning, for inventory IN input a positive number and for inventory OUT input a negative number, and D Should be total.
Column E represents number of keys currently in the inventory. I was going to hide the current inventory column so all you see is IN/OUT and total.
So what I need is to be able to just come in and type in a number in the IN and/or OUT column, without having to add/subtract it with the number already in that column.
Bottom line, I'd like to be able to use IN and/or OUT columns to just type in numbers as they come and not have to worry about what's already in those columns and get correct total number.
Ok here it is. Attached worksheet shows
Column A - Key Numbers...No data value
Column B - Inventory IN
Column C - Inventory OUT
Column D - Total
Column E - Current Inventory(Starting point)
So the formula I used to get what i currently have is (=B2-C2+E2). This way whatever i input in columns C and C. totals out in D. But this way every time I want to add/subtract a number in B and C, i have to add to the number already in the column. I'd like to be able to type in a number in B and C as i go and still have a correct total. I wouldn't mind having just one column for in/out and use positive and negative numbers to differentiate inventory in or out.

If I setup a spreadsheet for others to use and I want them to enter their own numbers in certain cells... BUT... restrict those numbers to be from, say 0 to 50... what is the formula or how is it done? In this example I do not want to allow negative numbers or numbers > 50.
View 2 Replies View RelatedSo I am having trouble figuring out how to do multiple text to equal multiple numbers. For instance right now I use =IF(E9="JOHN DOE","07", but I would like to have it where IF E9 = John Doe the cell shows 07, but IF the E9 = Sam Doe I want the cell to show 08, and the same IF E9 = Pat Doe the cell shows 09 and so on.
Meaning is there a way to have multiple functions go to a cell dependent on what is entered into E9 for example. I just want to have a number come out in one cell if a certain name is entered in a different cell. I loooked at this post [URL]....which got me started,

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have to enter date into cells. It is being written from the lists of paper, where for date is entered only year (e.g. 1987), but I have to enter it into excel with day and month (the program working with data only recognizes this form; eg 01.01.1987).
I was thinking of writing a conditional formatting, to remind if I will forget to write 01.01. before year.
I prepared formula like this (to check for the dots):
=IF(AND(MID(AD2;3;1)=".";MID(AD2;6;1)=".");1;0)
But it is not working, because the function recognizes general formatting of cell instead of date formatting (28491 instead of 01.01.1987).
Fill the corresponding cell with last value entered?
