Mar 14, 2009I've written a script to read all the values in an excel worksheet in to an array. The cell types differ from General or Text to Custom - HH:MM When I look through the array the script has returned the correct value for most but for the cells that are of a custom type an "incorrect" value has been returned. For example a cell of type Custom HH:MM which is 10:23:00 in the worksheet appears as 0.432638888888889 in the array. Is there a way to get the script to return the correct value?
Below is an extract of the code I've used
If objWorksheet.Cells(i, "D") <> "" Then
If objWorksheet.Cells(i, "F") <> "" Then
arrCULDEV = Split(objWorksheet.Cells(i, "F"), ":")
Redim Preserve arrSheetInfo(x)
arrSheetInfo(x) = arrCULDEV(0) & "," & arrCULDEV(1)
x = x + 1
i = i + 1
Else
i = i + 1
End If
End If
Text And Formatted Date & Time In Cell
Mar 19, 2008I am trying to get a single cell to display the following:
Last Updated: 3/18/2008 15:08 (GMT+2)
Entering =NOW() in a cell displays the date and time as required.
But entering ="Last Updated: "&NOW()&" (GMT+2)" displays the date and time as a serial number. Formatting the cell to Date does not change the serial number to date and time format.
The only way I have found to get the desired result is to use =NOW() in another cell (F13), format that cell to general to get the date/time serial number, then use ="Last Updated: "&TEXT(F13,"m/d/yyyy h:mm ")&" (GMT+2)" in the required destination cell.
As I said this works, but it strikes me as an inefficient method. Is there a formula I can enter or formatting I can apply to get the desired result without using an addition cell?
The result needs to be in a single cell. Splitting text and date/time into 3 adjacent cells will not work with my worksheet setup.
Lookup Numbers Formatted As Text
Sep 17, 2009The solution below to look up numbers in an array formatted as 10 characters as text.
=VLOOKUP(TEXT(A1,"0000000000"),LOOKUPTABLE,2,FALSE)
This has worked well except now I have received the data and the text I want to lookup has been reformatted (previously leading zeros) to the number with trailing spaces, still a total of 10 characters but the above formula no longer works. Is there an easier workaround other than using "Find" to locate the position of the first space.
IF Function Using Cells Formatted As Time Hh:mm
Mar 28, 2014I am trying to calculate the difference in time between two cells and if the difference is >= 8 Hours the result is 8 hours - 1 Hour if the result is less than 8 hours then the result stands. I have the following, but it returns 8 always.
The two cells are formatted as hh:mm
H6 = 06:30 & G6 = 14:30
=IF(((H6-G6)>=8),"((H6-G6)-1)","(H6-G6))")
Nested If Statement Using Time Formatted Cells
Nov 13, 2009I am trying to build an if statement to test variables that are in time format and then perform a calculation.
I was able to get an example working if I convert the start times to integers rather than time values. However, the data won't be provided to me as integers.
So, I need a nested if statement (using "and") that will test for two situations using cells in time format or I need to write a macro to convert the time data to integer format. I've been working on the former most of the day and have hit a brick wall.
Datedif But For Date In Future And To Return Formatted Time Value
Aug 4, 2009I need to calculate the difference in Years, Months and Days between:
Date 1 = TODAY()
Date 2 = 4 years after a date in cell A1, which will always be earlier than today's date
(A bit of backround - I have certain risk management procedures that have a lifespan of 4 years. I want to calculate the time between now and 4 years after the date the procedure was completed, essentially to see how long before they have to be redone).
So far I have:
=DATEDIF(A1+4,TODAY(),"y")&"y "&DATEDIF(A1,TODAY(),"ym")&"m "&DATEDIF(A1,TODAY(),"md")&"d"
But that returns #NUM!.
Removing the +4 obviously just calculated the difference between the date in A1 and today, but I need the date in A1 PLUS 4 years and today.
I have also tried:
=(DATE(YEAR(A1)+4,MONTH(A1),DAY(A1))-TODAY())/365.25
which works in theory, however:
a) no consideration for leap years
b) does not return nY, nM, nD - only the decimal.
However I would be happy to use this method if I could convert it to Years Months Days.
Lookup Sunset Time Based Onrecord Date - Incorrect Time Calculated
Mar 22, 2012Consider this code:
'light eligibility
Dim facb As String
Dim sunset As Variant
[color=green]' check if facility has lights[color]
facb = WorksheetFunction.VLookup(RID, ds, 10, False) 'find facility code
If WorksheetFunction.VLookup(facb, fac, 6, False) = "Y" Then 'facility has lights
sunset = WorksheetFunction.VLookup(tempws.Range("A9"), sun, 2, False) 'lookup the sunset time based on the record's date
[Code] ......
This code checks the need for lights at a facility.
It first checks to see if the facility even has lights by cross-referencing a value in the record with a facilities database.
If it has lights, it then checks to see if they are needed. If the rental goes past the sunset time, then it needs lights. Sunset is determined by cross-referencing the date value in sheet1! A9, with the sunset database.
If it needs lights, variable lghtson is calculated equal to "sunset"-30 minutes.
As I step through this code:
WorksheetFunction.VLookup(facb, fac, 6, False) = "Y" Facility has lights.
Check to see if lights are needed.
sunset = WorksheetFunction.VLookup(tempws.Range("A9"), sun, 2, False)
sunset=0.879166666666667 which is 9:06PM. This is a proper value from the lookup.
If rental_end.value > sunset Then
rental_end (value from textbox) = "9:30 pm" , sunset=0.879166666666667. This is true, and Excel accepts it as true ...
lghtson = sunset - 0.5
0.379166666666667 = 0.879166666666667 - 0.5 (9:06 AM)
This is not the value I was looking for. I was looking for 8:34PM (0.856944444444444)
Copying Formatted Data
Nov 3, 2009I have a cell that calculates an etch time, eg 41.88. The cell is formatted to give me whole numbers and quarters only so that the operators input is made easier, in this case 42.

Conditional Formatted Data - Saving It All
Aug 25, 2006I ran a very simple code that conditionally formatted red any cell sum greater than 12. The macro worked all the way to the end - about 15k rows. After saving and re-opening file only the first 1603 lines had the formatting and the rest did not. Several attempts end with no change in results.
I did the programming in Office 97 but edited and ran it on Excel 2002.
Copy Or Link Formatting From Conditionally Formatted Cell To Another Cell?
Aug 12, 2014I have a column who's content is determined via about 6 nested if statements from data on that row. That cell is then conditionally formatted to a certain color based on the text that is ultimately printed from the nested ifs (simply an extra visual legend for the text). All of this contributing info and about 1000 lines items make a very large and difficult to print page. What I am trying to do is a make a summary sheet that simply takes the index number of these 1000 rows and copies or links the conditional formatting of the mentioned cell onto this number on another sheet. I have already linked this status cell and put it adjacent to the index number which works well in that with two columns I can show the index and status but if I could combine the color of the status cell onto the index cell, it would be even better. I am pretty sure another conditional format for this summary sheet would not be possible or be extremely complex since the contents of the index cell I am conditionally formatting have no bearing on the conditions for the format. Was hoping there is some VBA magic that could simply mimic the conditional formatting from one cell and put it on another.

Nov 11, 2009I'm trying to link two different budgets into a third spreadsheet. The final step I'm attempting to accomplish is have an if-and statement reference just the month from a date-formatted cell. One of my departments tracks their budget on a daily basis, i.e.

I saw a question similar to this one but didn't see any responses so I'm not sure if it can be done.

Feb 11, 2014I'm working on a sheet for our accounting section which has been in use for quite some time, which means, that I'm not supposed to change a hell of a lot in it since it's accounting and everybody is afraid of changes.
Coming to the point, I have the following problem:
(1) I have a date.
(2) I need that date in this format: "mm-yyyy", written in a certain cell.
(3) BUT: the cell should NOT contain the date itself, but JUST the text (some tables in the background need this format)
(4) Changing the cell to text-format is not eligible, since it puts an " ' " in front of the numbers.
(5) The cell should be formatted as a number.
So, in conclusion:
I need a string/number with the date in this format: "mm-yyyy" in the cell formatted .NumberFormat = "0".
I'm working on an existing workbook...
I decided to add some code and a screenshot. This code will return the number, which lies behind the date, and write it into the cell. So that's not what I want, but maybe the code clarifying what I need anyway.
The screenshot shows the wanted output : screenie.png
