How To Obtain 6 Numbers In A Cell With No Duplicates
Jan 29, 2014
At any rate, for a statistics experiment, I need a way to obtain precisely 6 random, numeric values in a cell, separated by commas, with no duplicates.
For example, if cell A1 contains the following: 7, 12, 14, 7, 14, 3, then I need to remove the duplicate(s) -- in this case, the extra 7 and the extra 14. After the two duplicates are removed, I then would have to replace with two more values (non-duplicates, of course).
Here are the restrictions, in addition to having no duplicate values appear:
* The first 5 values need to be randomly drawn from values between 1 and 75, inclusive.
* The 6th value needs to be randomly drawn from values between 1 and 15 (inclusive).
* It would be nice - but not necessary - to have the first 5 values sorted in ascending order. For example: 7, 12, 14, 29, 70, 3.

how to obtain what the formatting of a cell is, be it a date, number, custom, currency, etc? I want to acquire the format of the cell in vBA code, in order to display the value exactly as it was formatted in the cell when sending that value to a label on a UserForm or Field on a Microsoft Word form.
Example:
Cell A1 has the value 12/25/2006 formatted with the Date format: "mmmm-dd-yyyy" appearing as December 25, 2006
Cell A2 has the value 9.247 formatted with the Number format: "#.##" appearing as 9.25 to show only two-decimals
Cell A3 has the value 899, formatted with the Custom format: "00000" appearing as 00899 to represent a five-digit US zip code
Cell A4 has the value 1234.56 formatted with the Currency format: I think -"$#,##0.00_);($#,##0.00_)" appearing as $1,234.56
For rownumber = 1 To 4
Entry = Cells(rownumber,1).Value 'gets whatever in cell
Formatting = Cells(rownumber,1).Format 'makes no sense in vBa.
msgbox Entry & " formatted as " & Formatting

I have this certain value "Y" in all the sheets. In the summary sheet, I would like to get the cell address for this value in a given sheet. I know that you can get cell address using CELL worksheet function. However, for that you need to know the reference to the cell, which is what I am interested in.
I tried Hlookup to get column #. But couldn't figure out how to convert the number to letter so that I can use MATCH to get row # and then finally, index or address function to what I am looking for.
If someone knows how to convert column # to column letter OR knows a better/easier way to obtain cell reference/address based on cell value,

I want to set up a column of numbers that will be random without any repeating numbers.
Example: If I set up for 1,000 rows, I would like the random numbers to be 1 to 1,000, but the catch would be to have no duplicates in the column.
It has been several years since I worked with Excel and I am sure this can be done with a macro, but I am not sure how to go about it right now.

I am trying to solve is as follows, I have groups of 20 numbers in columns, one per column and would like to compare the groups to determine if any group is duplicated on another line.
I had been looking at using VBA to copy the numbers to an array, sort from lowest to highest, concatenate and use that to compare each group. If possible however if there is a suitable formula it would be preferable.
I have attached a small sample to illustrate.

I have one debit and one credit column. I want to higlight duplicates, with positive and negative values.
Like this.
Column A
5000
1000
10000
3000
Column B
- 10000
-5000
-3000
-2000
I know how to do the conditional formating to find duplicates when there is only positive or negative numbers, but i don't know how to match both positive and negative numbers.

- I have a list of 8 digit numbers in Column A sorted small to large
- Some of the 8 digit numbers are duplicated.
- In Column B I would like to have more of a combination of countif and listing the duplicates in order (1 for the first dup in the column, 2 for the 2nd, etc.)
Example of what I'd like to see
Column A Column B
123456781
123456782
132546841
685036541
985413561
985413562
985413563
As you can see if the number in column A is on the list one time column B would show a 1If the number is shown two times (the first time it shows up will show a 1 the second will show a 2) If the number is shown 3 times (the first time it shows up will show a 1 the second will show a 2, the third tiem would show a 3)

I have an issue with long numbers (16 digits). To display them correctly in excel I formatted the cells as text. This part works fine, but now for some reason conditional formatting marks different numbers as duplicates.
In my case 3081281170122602 and 3081281170122601 are considered as duplicates by excel.

We were looking at a list of about 100 FedEx tracking numbers, each 30 characters in length, in an otherwise blank Excel spreadsheet. All tracking numbers in column A.
I used the Conditional Formatting - Highlight Duplicates feature to find any duplicate tracking numbers. It highlighted numerous. We sorted the column smallest to largest to look at two duplicates back to back, but found that there were actually no duplicates. Excel was highlighting values that had the *first 25* characters the same, but it didn't matter what the remaining characters were. For example:
1234567890123456789012345XXXXX and
1234567890123456789012345YYYYY
were highlighted as duplicates of each other.
Excel only looks at the first 25 characters when analyzing duplicates (at least in this specific function). That in and of itself blows my mind. Tracking numbers seem like an abundantly common type of data, and to think that Excel would fail to analyze them in such a simple manner seems impossible to me.
It gets slightly more confusing though. If you back a character off the end of the values, it NO LONGER sees them as duplicates. So...
1234567890123456789012345XXXX and
1234567890123456789012345YYYYY
are NOT highlighted as duplicates while
1234567890123456789012345XXXXX and
1234567890123456789012345YYYYY
ARE highlighted as duplicates. So there's some funny business going on about values of the same character length. Maybe Excel first looks at character length before analyzing specific characters. If length doesn't match, it doesn't even bother to analyze specific character values. That seems like a very strange programming choice though.

I have to take a range of phone numbers that I have to port from another carrier and manually type them out or copy into another speadsheet, removing duplicate numbers. For example, I have the following numbers:
55532821055553282108
78132821235553282123
55532821625553282163
The results on the next spreadsheet need to be:
5553282105
5553282106
5553282107
5553282108
7813282123
5553282162
5553282163
I am looking for a way to automate this process.

I just have a quick question with regards to two-way interpolation of data.
I have a data table which has x-values, y-values and z-values.
I need to obtain an interpolate value for z, given a value for x and a value for y.
The x value specified is 1.569 and the y value specified is 1.66.
I know how to use the FORECAST formula for a simple x, y table, but I have no idea what to do here when I need to find a z value, given the x and y values.

I need to concatenate varying numbers of cells based on duplicates found in a separate column, but I'm not sure how to approach it. I have 41,000+ rows of data, so I have to find a formula.
Example:

JosephFB539F935Bowser, AmyFB539F936LaRock, ChuckFB667D3B
Based on duplicates in column B, I want to combine the data in column A into one cell. The duplicates in column B could be only 2, or could be 20+.

How can I obtain the array values from a function?
For example: Those steps were made by cytop to split a text (btw it works perfecet!!), I just added Function splitText(strSplit As Variant) As Variant ... End Function
VB:
Function splitText(strSplit As Variant) As Variant
Dim datosColumnaIncio() As Variant
Dim iTemp As Integer
Redim datosColumnaIncio(Len(strSplit) - 1)
For iTemp = 1 To Len(strSplit)
datosColumnaIncio(iTemp - 1) = Mid$(strSplit, iTemp, 1)
Next
End Function
So I want to know if its correct like that:
VB:
Function splitText(strSplit As Variant) As Variant
Dim datosColumnaIncio() As Variant
Dim iTemp As Integer
[Code] .....
So when I call the function:
VB : MsgBox splitText("F4")
It throws an error message :s what is wrong or how can I get the array values of a function ???

What I want to do is in column 5 row 1, I want it to show a value only if all 4 columns, row 1 are filled in. For example in the picture I want to show a blank in the first 8 rows but to start showing a value on the rest of the rows, in this example IPE 240 to be the first value. When it shows this value from this row I want it to obtain the value with the highest percentege inside. For example in this picture the correct value first value to be shown in column 5 will be IPE (84%)
Ive done this code so far: =IF(AND(B256<>"",D256<>"",F256<>"",H256<>""),Here I want it to show the value on the row that has the highest percentege,"")

I've assigned a single macro to numerous Form Checkboxes (not ActiveX). I'd like the macro to be able to identify the Checkbox calling it, so that if for example, if it were fired by clicking "Check Box 41", the macro should know that.
Is this possible, or must I use an ActiveX control?

I have been using the Formula 1 (see below) to obtain subtotals on a report, which works fine. Cell A4 has 1st July 2008 and cell A5 has 1st Aug 2008 entered as dates.
I wanted to confine the formula to a single row by using the MONTH() function using formula 2. I have spent a considerable amount of time trying to get this working with no success.
Is someone able to have a quick look at this and tell me what I am doing wrong.
Formula 1
=SUMPRODUCT((INDEX(Consolidated,0,16)="SI")*(INDEX(Consolidated,0,14)>=$A4)*(INDEX(Consolidated,0,14)

I've been trying to get this to function correctly. The following code does pull out a list of all filepaths, but what I want to to is access the properties of the file.
Basically I select a customer from a combo box, and from this the code does a vlookup to determine what folder the reports are stored in. The list is then entered onto the worksheet 'FilesInReportFolder'. There is some commented out code as I've ben trying to come up with a simple way to remove the 'xls' from the end of the string, but din't worry about that.
I've found a website that suggests adding .name to the lineto get the name instead of the path, but what I really want is be able to pull out other details about the file.
Here's my
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
Combobox1value = ComboBox1.Value
Dim rng As Range
Dim RowNo As Integer
Dim NoOfFiles As Integer
Dim foundfilepath As Integer
Dim FilePath As String

Im setting up a fixed hedging simulation using excel and want to use solver to obtain a maximum profit. I have taken historical stock prices and then predicted future prices using the random walk process. To create the hedge I am using european calls and puts in both long and short positions. The simulation has been set up so that the options are being brought/sold when the historical data ends and then sold/payed when the predicted data finishes.
I am letting solver change the values of the strike of each of the options and also the amount purchased/sold for each of the options too! My constraints are that all the strike prices have to be >= 0, all the amounts of each particular option has to be >= 0 and that profit has to be >= 0. It is worth noting that as well as the values already mentioned, d1 and d2 values are also being calculated on the sheet which are then used to calculate the value of the options being used (using Black-Scholes model), this value is then given a realistic spread value and then 3% is added on as the brokers fee. All of the values mentioned are being taken into consideration when caluclating profit.
