How To Make A Calculation Using Variable Text
Jul 2, 2014
I am trying to make a calculation using variable text.
My outcome cell is D3 and my two variable cells are C3 and F3. In C3 I want to be able to insert a staff members name, of which we have 6 different members of staff. In F3 i need to insert the week number which runs 1 through 6. The outcome is the individuals place on the week roster which needs to be a number between 1-6 inclusive. SO basically if F3=1 & D3=J.SMITH then I need D3 to equal 1 keepng in mind that if F3 & D3 have 6 possible variables.

make a calculation(addition) and use the answer to multiply against another addition calculation....
The sum of (Monday!A1:A4) multiplied by the sum of (Monday!B1:B4) plus (Tuesday!A1:A4) multiplied by the sum of (Tuesday!B1:B4) and so on.

=IF(OR(J4="",K4=""),"",NETWORKDAYS(J4,K4,Holidays!Z29:Z39)-1)
I have this formula in Column L. The calculations are working fine and I close the file. After I email the workbook from one computer to another and then resave it, every row in Column L that has the formula turns to #NAME?
Do you know why this is happening?

Identtime altlatlon
a3340.3320004551
a3360.3325004450
a7880.3350004425
a5210.3310004910
a8520.42000453
a9560.51002030
a8410.5580002063
a9650.680002465
I need a formula that recognizes identical times then takes the difference between the altitude, lat, long of the two identical times.
So ideally the calculation that would be performed.
Ident (a334)-(a336) 2000-2500 45-44 51-50
Ident (a334)-(a788) 2000-5000 45-44 51-25
Ident (a334)-(a521) 2000-1000 ''''''' ''''''''''
Ident (a336)-(a788) 2500-5000 '''''' '' ''''
Ident (a336)-(a521) 2500-1000
Ident (a788)-(a521) 5000-1000
I created a pivot table to try to calculate the difference but it cannot do it an a algorithmic type fashion like this. Then eventually I need to conditionally format it to if all three meet a certain criteria that it will put it in a separate chart only if all three conditions are met.
So if Ident (a334)-(a336) 500 1 1 (ex. of all three criteria being met [actual parameters not important but these values will be flagged in my conditional formatting])
This needs to then be put in a separate chart with all other data that meets all three criteria.
So the steps I need to perform this function:
1. Does Ident "x" equal Ident "y" time?
Yes: Take difference between all three parameters. Do all three meet Criteria?
Yes: Put all calculated info in separate chart if they meet all three criteria. Does Ident "x" time equal Ident "z" time?
Yes: Take difference between all three parameters. Do all three meet Criteria?
No: Generic Algorithim.xlsxEnd
Yes: Put all calculated info in separate chart if they meet all three criteria. Does Ident "x" time equal Ident "aa" time?
No: End
No: End
No: Move on to does Ident "y" time equal Ident "z" time?

[code] ......
=SUMIF($A:$A,">="&TODAY()-1,D:D)-SUMIF($A:$A,">"&TODAY(),D:D) calculates the total in Col D looking back from today. The results gives you 12:00. What I need is a formula that will look back from the current time to 24 hours in the past, NOT 1 day, to calculate the total in Col D. Looking back 24 hours, from 10:00am, the results would be 6:00.
Since the first time on 12/12 has not arrive, it will not calculate it, but will look back from 10:00am on 12/12 to 10:00am on 12/11 and calculate a result of 6:00 hours.

Im trying to access data from 2 different cells (say A1, B1), its for calculating transformer hotspots. The cooling method of the transformer is naturaly air cooled oil.. until the winding temp reaches 75C ( I have winding temp data laid out on a column) then the fans come on and some constants in the formula change (need to read from the other cell, say B1) so it switches, but the fans stay on UNTIL the winding temp is 50C and then go off, so the characteristics change back to the previous one, so I need to switch back. How do I go about doing this... my current method starts working when it reaches 50 instead of waiting the temp to go to 75 then fall to 50 then do it... im a bit confused.. maybe i shouldnt be doing this on excel... ow well

I currently have a userform which inputs data into two cells, the third then multiplies these two cells together, which is all honky dory. It works, 2 x 2 = 4.
But when i put 0.6 for example it really doesnt work. 0.6 x 25 = 25. WRONG. My code in the macro is fairly long winded but will paste anyway.
If ComboBox2.Text = "Pounds (£)" Then
Sheets("Claims").Range("G16") = TextBox2.Text
Else
Sheets("Claims").Range("F16") = TextBox2.Text
End If
Sheets("Claims").Range("B16") = ComboBox1.Text
Sheets("Claims").Range("C16") = TextBox1.Text
Sheets("Claims").Range("B16") = TextBox3.Text
Sheets("Claims").Range("D16") = TextBox4.Text
Sheets("Claims").Range("E16") = TextBox5.Text
Dim a As Long
Dim b As Long
Dim answer As Long
a = Sheets("Claims").[E16]
b = Sheets("Claims").[F16]
answer = (a * b)
Sheets("Claims").[G16] = answer

Range([e2], [e6].End(xlDown)).Offset(0, 1).FormulaR1C1 = _
"=month(RC[-1])"
Range("g1") = "yr"
Range([f2], [f6].End(xlDown)).Offset(0, 1).FormulaR1C1 = _
"=YEAR(RC[-2])"
End Sub
i like to change to code as following , but it cannot work , hope some one can help me.
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick _
lastrow = 6
Range("F1") = "month"
Range([e2], [e[lastrow]].End(xlDown)).Offset(0, 1).FormulaR1C1 = "=month(RC[-1])" _
Range("g1") = "yr"
Range([f2], [f[lastrow]].End(xlDown)).Offset(0, 1).FormulaR1C1 = "=YEAR(RC[-2])" _
End Sub
As i have many variable with same function, tried of keep change last row number.

I am trying to make a spreadsheet that will have a weekly schedule and will recognize and make some sort of message box or something when a person's name is used twice in the same range. For example, if Smith is in B2 and in B4 then message box. I'm not sure how to do this.
My thought was to make a variable range to check if anything in B2:B7 is equal to say, B3. But the range B2:B7 would have to exclude the cell that is compared, B3. Otherwise it is always true.

I have 2 worksheets - "Results" and "Historical". I am trying to record a macro that copies data from "Results" and then pastes into Historical. The data I want to copy will always be in "Results" A1:A10. When I want to update the macro (which will be weekly), I want it to copy A1:A10 and then paste into "Historical". Simple enough. Here is the problem:
Since this will be updated weekly, the first time I update I will want "Results" data copied into "Historical" A1:A10. The next time I update, I want the data copied into "Historical" B1:B10; then C1:C10, etc. Essentially I want the keep a running total of all of my prior data.
So I need the macro to be able to say something like - paste date into the first available column. If there is data in A1:A10, then paste into B, then C, D. How do I make the Macro variable?

I would like have a input box in which a user enter a number and then I would like to be able to use that number in other worksheets within the same workbook. How do I declare the variable for use with other sheets. I know I would first use
Dim intRows As Interger
But now how do I make it global.

I have made a very basic spredsheet which using an assumption table makes a particular column of values which works out the revenue. Then I just drag the box down to the number of rows I want it to go down.
However, I want to be able to enter a number in a CELL away from the tale eg. 50 and have the number of rows in the column go down to 50

How do I make a column array variable within a function? I've done nested vlookups to get a column number, but the function I'm using doesn't use a "number", it uses a column aray. '=AVERAGEIFS(L:L,K:K,">="&B$2,K:K,"<="&B$3). The "L:L" needs to be moved according to Market, (or column choosen).

But I found nowhere an example on how to make a the column part of a cell reference variable and the row absolute.
Is

I have some text in a cell, which is longer than the width that I am going to make that cell. When I don't wrap the text, it cuts it off at the end of the cell.
Since each column represents a day in a calendar, it would be incorrect to merge the two cells, but I don't want the text hidden, since I need to print the final product.
It is non-numeric text, and i've pasted --> values to remove formula issues.

I'm using this formula to pick all rows from a huge range of cells "DATA" in another sheet, by matching the first column value (SAPDATA is the range that contains all the first column cells of DATA).
{=IF(ROW($B49)-ROW($B$48)>COUNTIF(SAPDATA,$D$4),"",INDEX(DATA,SMALL(IF(SAPDATA=$D$4,ROW(SAPDATA)),ROW($B49)-ROW($B$48)),2))}
All possible first column values have been stored as a dropdown in cell D4, and whenever I change the choice in the dropdown cell, the retrieval of those hundreds of rows takes ages in excel.

I have a range that contains text. Let's say the range is colums $F:$M. There is x rows and in each cell there is either nothing or a word, let's call it "dummy". There is just a certain amount of "dummies", such as "dummy a", "dummy b" and so on, let's assume ten different dummies. It can also happen that "dummy c" or any other dummy appears more than once in those colums.
What I want Excel to do, is looking up columns $F:$M and make a list (possibly sorted) that includes all the entries from columns $F:$M, but each one only once and no blanks. Can I do this and if, how?

I would like to have a cell in which there is descriptive text and the results of a calculation. For example, in row 2, I want to state the current total number of items in inventory at the top of the sheet in the center of the used cells.
Inventory Total is: SUM(A4:A64,000) as of: Date()
I can't merge cells or manipulate the text in such a way to neatly bring the text and calculation together. And there are actually 2 calculations in the example above. One to SUM the items and one to add the date.

I'm trying to create an if statement to check to see if a cell has a value in it and return a math function. My problem is that some of the values contain more that just the name searched for. This is a basic example

20 Williams DPX if(B2="Williams",A2*.8,if(B1="Johnson",A2*.85,1))

I have 5 cells with drop down validation lists for the different types of window that we offer. From this list I will select the options and then input some dimensions in cell dimension fields. I then have a cell that gathers the text string from the 5 drop down cells.
My aim is to be able to calculate glass sizes from the text string and the dimensions. Each of the possible text strings will require different calculations and will define the sizes that I need to order. I know the equations that I will need for each of the options but cannot think of how to make them dependable on the text string cell.
I am looking for some way of using IF function to say if the text string returns as certain text then there is a certain calculation to calculate from the dimensions for the glass sizes that I need. I dont know if I've explained it too well nor even if its possible but if it is possible I will find a way as I have done some pretty exceiting things with excel in the past.

I need an excel function for this...
Say,
Cell A2= 8
Cell A3= 1
If A2 < (9*A3), then Cell A4 will say "Plastic", otherwise it will look to the next function, which is If A2 < (10*A3), then A4 will say "Compact", otherwise, it will look to the next one which is If A2 < (15*A3), then A4 will say "Semi-Compact" otherwise If A2> (15*A2), it'll say "Slender". so at the end, Cell A4 can only be one of these: 'Plastic' or 'Compact' or 'Semi-compact' or 'Slender'. How can i combine all the functions together?

I have two columns with entries consisting of numbers. I'm trying to match between the columns but some names dont match because of the formatting.
Example
065 matches 065 (I have that green triangle on the cell that indicated "The number in this cell is formatted as text")
However 120 doesn't match with 120 (only one of them have that green triangle)
I tried to format all the cells as text at it seems the match only works when the green triangle is available. The green triangle seems to only show its self when I double click on the cell. I have thousands of entries so that doesn't work. I also tried to use the "Text to Columns" but it coverts entries like 002 into 2 which I dont want.
