I have to create a formula to fine difference between 2 numbers.
There are columns A to Z.
Values will be populated in A1 to Z1. Sometimes the value will stop in between itself. For example H1.
So, I need a formula to catch the last populated cell (H1 in our case) and then find the difference between the value in its previous column.
H1-G1 should be the result I should get.
I want to catch the value of cell B25 in the Quantities sheet of the workbook Sales.xls in the variable marchSales.
The code is:
Sub marchSales()
Dim marchSales as Integer
With Workbooks("Sales").Worksheets("Quantities")
.Range("B25") = marchSales
End With
MsgBox "The sales of March is " & marchSales, vbInformation
End Sub
I am writing this code in the Ex9 sheet of the workbook Exercises.xls and both workbooks are in Drive D.
I am looking to freeze row 18 in an excel sheet, however in doing so this really limits the amount of rows below row 18 that can be viewed and scrolled through.
I would like to know if there is any way that you could freeze row 18 and when you scroll down on the worksheet, you can scroll down past rows 1-17 and when row 18 reaches the top row it would lock there? And you would then be able to continue scrolling down the worksheet beyond row 18..
I want to catch if the user has deleted a row. There is a need to know when a row is deleted and what the data was in that row. So, what I'm trying to do if a row is deleted is to undo the action and then change the font of all data in that row to have the strikethrough effect. This will enable others looking at the workbook to know that the information in the row existed but is no longer relevent.
So, the code is something like this:If row deleted Then
Application.Undo
Target.Font.Strikethrough = True
End If
I have used the following =IF(ISBLANK(Q6),"",(NOW())) & =IF(ISBLANK(Q6),"",(Today())),
but when the excel file is closed and opened the date changes to now or today. How can I make the date stay and not change?
how to hide a value on a cell when another cell is not yet populated?
like for example:
A1 is Blank A2 has a formula of workday(A1,2) a date will appear on the A2 cell and I want not to show or be hidden the date in A2 until A1 is populated
I am now looking for a command that will return if a cell is populated. I.e. I need something that will find out which cell is the last one populated in a column (populated = contains data) and then will move 2 cells down, and then will enter some data into the following cells.

For Example:
If cell H42 of Sheet 1 = [ X ] Then create a hyperlink to cell B2 of sheet 2.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to make a date auto populate when an entry is made into a specific cell.
Context:
Cell H has a drop down list of staff names who will be assigned to a project, once a name is selected from the drop down box:

is this possible with just a simple formula?
I have a VBA procedure in Excel that opens PowerPoint presentations and searches each slide for embedded objects, opens, and attempts to save the objects as separate files utilizing the following statement:
Shape.OLEFormat.DoVerb Count
Where Count is the "Open" verb. 90% of the time it works great but there are times where the object simply wont open so the application just stops. I don't get any errors so I don't see how I can trap for this incident.
What I would like to do is emulate something similar to C#'s Try/Catch function.
Is there a way to do something like this in VBA?
let's suppose I have a prefixed range like A1:A300 in which periodically I need to enter some records (normally numbers but also sometime blank cells - i.e. void no entries); so imagine you have an array of cells in which I want to catch by mean of a formula or a macro the last entered significative record (i.e. a number); the objective is obviously to catch the last significative record in that given range having numbers in it (i.e. leaving out any blank cells in between); no other clues to approach the problem are given: do you think it's possible to sort out somehow this tricky problem ?
example:
1
34
67
#
45
#
#
545
#
22
where # stands for blank cell
how to catch 22?
See attached formula:
"=INDEX(DATABASE.xls.xlsx!$AT$5:$AT$2001,MATCH(AR10,DATABASE.xls.xlsx!$O$5:$O$2001,0))"
Cell AR10 is my target cell and then there are 15 other cells that populate when the correct information is put into cell AR10, but if one of the other cells does not have any information in it, it returns a "0" (zero). I am trying to get the cell to show blank as when I print I don't want a "0" (zero) in every cell that has not got any information.
2 x cells are showing telephone numbers, 1 x landline and 1 x mobile - sometimes we don't have a landline number, so I want the cell to show blank not "0" (zero)
The cell format is set to "text", but I have tried setting it to "general", "number" and finally settled on "text", but all return "0" (zero) if we don't have a number for them.
I have attached a sample file. I would if possible like to have a hyperlink at the top of the sheet that when pressed would take you to the last populated cell in column G. I can do a normal hyperlinks but over time the hyperlink would take you to the wrong place as the sheet is filled in more and more. Is this possible?
I have tried to adapt various macros I have found on this forum but they on't seem to do want I ask of them I also seemed to have acquired an extra vba project (Ubitmenuo4) in the worksheet and can't get rid of it, so just ignore that
I have a list where the lines of data I need are not uniform in relation to the customer identifier, ideally I want to get the Lookup (or equivalent) to ignore the blank and move down the column to the next populated cell as below.

If I have a cell "C8" default value is "choose" and it is a drop list of other values. I want to validate if "C8" is populated with a value other than "choose" that the user populates the SOME of other cells in the row like D8 or F8? I would like to alert something that the cell needs to be populated.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a message box that initiates when a cell is populated with a value that is >= a certain value.
My current code looks like this:

i need to find the last populated cell in the row say I9:CN9 and return the description for that column the resides in I5:CN5 and then fill the formula down for about 500 rows, just not sure even where to begin, do i need a custom formula in VBA? as i can't seem to find a combination that works built-in...
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find some solution on frequent errors , that come up when one copy, or drag formulae.
Sometime the error doesn’t appear on surface, but after digging you realize that some formula is not pointing to correct
cells.
I want to create a macro which will do following things :
1. It will go to each cell in the selected range, and compare the cell’s formula with that of the cell on its right and left.
2. If the formulae are not similar it should change the color of that cell.
Basically, I am trying to catch logical errors. However I don’t know how to approach this problem? Is there any in-built functionality in Excel that can do this task ?
I've implanted data validation into some cells and I need to be able to catch any modifications to these cells. If the user change the value from A to B, I would like to trap this event using VBA. I've tried to record a macro, change the value of the cell using the data validation but unfortunately, it didn't generate any code at all.

I've populated a temporary worksheet with several columns of data. In this example my Amount Column has several null cells. What I need to do is write a macro to find any nulls and populate the nulls with the data in the last populated cell above it.
Example: the four empty cells below Account (524150) also need to be populated with 524150. The cell immediately below 524200 also needs to be populated with 524200 and the 3 empty cells below 512800 also need to be populated with 512800. Week to week the number of rows will change and the nulls will also change.

I have 3 columns (data, date & price). What I would like to do is find the last populated cell in 'date' column and autofill it based on column 'data'. The tricky thing is that the date form is text and while autofilling manually it changes.
I have a spreadsheet with many worksheets, everyone except the first representing a year. Every worksheet has twelve tables (the months), the first row of each table has the days of the month and the second row has the data that I put on a daily basis. The first worksheet calculates statistics using the data from the other worksheets.
I am looking for a formula that returns the date by finding the last populated cell and looking right above it, so I can use this info in the first worksheet to show when the spreadsheet was last updated.
I have a template worksheet that several people use and print from.
The range on this worksheet used is A1:C499

I am trying to have cells automatically populate when a cell in the same row is populated with data. I am trying to avoid a formula because this workbook will be a large file and I don't want to slow it down anymore than I have to.
I currently have a macro that pulls data from a website and fills in the data into Columns "E","F" and "G". Column "E" has values that are Alpha Numeric but also start with letters "P" or "R".
I have the Job ID in "I3" (Numerical Value) and the date of the job in "J3".
What I need to do is once "E6" is populated with a value, copy and paste "J3" to "C6" and "I3" to "D6". When "E7" has a value, copy and paste "J3" to "C7" and "I3" to "D7". When "E8" has a value, copy and paste "J3" to "C8" and "I3" to "D8", etc.
The cells "J3" and "I3" will never change location, just the value will change.
