I have a workbook with the twelve months of the year as seperat worksheets. a thirteenth worksheet is a "total" page. I have three different names to choose from a drop down list in collumn E. I need a formula that will say something like, "if JanuaryE4 = John Doe, total page A1= January A1" Is this possible?

I have 8 values in a drop-down list that I've created with excel " Validation" function. Each one of these values changes my data in the sheet. I'm trying to set up a macro that will choose each one of these values and print out the sheet when each new value is chosen.

View 3 Replies View Relatedis it possible to do the following with a drop down list, without requiring VBA? I would like to have 20 products to choose from in a drop down box. When the user selects one of the products, a more detailed product description will appear in the same cell where the drop down list is. For ex: If the user chose "chair" from the drop down list, what I would like to appear in the same cell is "chair - model T654".
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a drop down list that shows phrases for different math functions, like "divide by 2," "divide by 4," divide by 8," etc. When one of these items is selected, I want it to perform that specific calculation on a range of nearby cells.
However, I also want the user to be able to see the original value of the cells if they select "show original value" from the drop down list.
I have attached a workbook as an example. I think macro would probably work best.

I need to set up a formula to choose 2 job titles from a single column. There can be 2 to n job titles (non-repeating) and I want to find the title at random. I have no problem finding the first job title using index and randbetween, but I want the second title to meet the same criteria, just not equal to the first job title.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am creating an appointment calendar for the local free clinic.
There are over 1300 patients.
I used validation to create a drop down list in each 15 minute time segment of the schedular.
Two questions.
1. It does not scroll through all of the names....leaves the last 100 or so off. When I chose the validation List I chase the entire column. Is there a maximum length for Lists?
2. With that many names, it is a slow scroll. Is there anyway to enter the first letter of the patient name and have the scroll list go to that point on the list?
I usually try to figure these out myself, but the clinic needs the appointment scheduler as soon as possible.
What I have is a spreadsheet with a names column A and purchasing information in columns B-AA pertinent to the name in A. Additional information pertinent to the same name in Cell A1 exists in B2:AA2, or 3 etc. depending on the number of purchases made by the name in column A. The spredsheet is well over 100,000 rows long. Is there a method of copying the names so that each purchase has the correct name associated with it in the corresponding (currently empty) cell in column A? .....

TO:Name of client
Address, city, zip...
Phone number
Fax Number
I need to find a way to create a drop down list where I have my contacts information so that if I pick a name, it will show up on my form but also have the address, phone....in the format as above so that I don't have to keep inputting the information manually as there are over 20 names.
I'm writing a purchase order entry form for my company. I've used the above formulas to create drop down lists with addresses for each of our stores and vendors, but I need form to automatically select the correct "ship to:" location. Some stores will always have merchandise shipped to the store regardless of the vendor. Other stores will always have the product shipped to a warehouse location, but in a few stores the product will be shipped either to the store or a warehouse depending on the vendor.
I've been able to work out the formulas for the stores that have shipments always to one location by creating a second address table and linking the selected store to it.
Here is basically what I need:
Store A + Vendor A = Store A
Store A + Vendor B = Store A
Store B + Vendor A = Warehouse
Store B + Vendor B = Store B
Store C + Vendor A = Warehouse
Store C + Vendor B = Warehouse

I am trying to create an if function that returns a drop down list (which i have already created in another cell) to the cell if a certain condition is met. When i try, the if function only returns the option that has been selected in the drop down lists cell, instead of the entire drop down list. Is there a way to get the If function to return a working drop down box?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two columns, Account Number and Account Type. I already use Data Validation on Account Number to make sure it is numeric and on Account Type to make sure the user picks from a drop-down list. I want it so that if a user inputs an account number, it forces the user to automatically pick from the drop-down menu in the account type column, otherwise post an error.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a drop down list which returns values based on what has been selected in the previous drop down list in the adjacent cell, e.g. if 'Apples' is selected in the previous cell then you should only be able to select from 'Gala, Granny Smith', or if 'Oranges' is selected you should only be able to select 'Seville, Blood Orange'. Is there a formula which would do this, or can I use a pivot table somehow? I'm totally stumped.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to have a drop down list which displays a different set of values depending upon the value selected by a previous drop down list. ie. (drop down box 1)= x, y, z.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am familiar with the use of the INDIRECT function to retrieve data from different sheets in a workbook. However, is there a simple way of obtaining a list of all sheet names in a workbook (I have about 50) rather than typing them into the sheet individually?
I can see them in the workbook properties but can't copy and paste them.
I have a database output file where one of the columns contains managers names, often more than once. I want to apply an autofilter on manager name and then copy the result to another sheet or sheets. My criteria for the autofilter is a variable pointing to a list of names that at present I maintain by hand; a for-each-next loop then cycles through the names.
What I would like to do, before running the autofilter code, is to create the list of names via code. This would then automatically pickup names that are missing.
The code I have so far is below:
Public Sub find_managers()
Dim managers1 As Range
Dim names1 As Range
Dim n1 As Variant
Dim n2 As Variant
In my mind it should check the names in the unique list against the imported list and add any missing names.
I have a drop down box in column N, however I would like the options in that drop down box to change depending on what appears in column M.
If column M Says "Lapse" then I want one drop down box to appear in column N, If coumn M says "NTU" then I would like column N to show different drop down options.
I have a number of different formulae I want to invoke according to a choice. I am able to request the formula I want by entering them ‘in line’ as value1, value2 etc into the CHOOSE formula … e.g. =CHOOSE($H$1,IF(N3>O3,1,""),IF(N3<O3,1,""),IF(N3=O 3,1,””))
but this is cumbersome and confusing since I have a growing number of choices and some of the formulae are quite long. I want to enter them in a list and extract the formula which corresponds with the Index_num in the CHOOSE formula. I also need the cells in the formulae to be relative so this rules out using NAMES to refer to the formulae.
Title should read "Data Validation Lists"...oops

I am creating a box CBM optimizing tool at work for shipping our products internationally so that the sales department and logistics can estimate shipping costs and weights with out needing me to physically pack everything in advance. I have broken every product we sell into individual CBM's as well as the boxes that we use to ship. I have also set it up to give a break down of "boxes needed" to accommodate the approximated CBM by box size.
How to create a function that will take that info and calculate which combination of boxes will utilize the available space... In other words, how do i take my break down of the 6 box sizes available, with the "# of boxes needed" data i already have, and have it tell me which combination of boxes will utilize the maximum percentage of space, or leave the least amount of unused space based off of the cumulative CBM being shipped.

I need to compare two lists of client names. One list has 59k names to be compared to second list of 1000 names.
The list of 59k are listed in column D and the other list is in Column E. I tried conditional formatting but unfortunately some of the names are slightly different I.e. fair point communications vs fair point communications inc. I was trying to put in v lookup with a trim function but it didn't seem to be working.
I've been tying to get the vlookup function to not stop when it finds the 1st occurence and actually find all the occurences in that collumn and then sum them together, can this be done? Or by using a different function? Example......
So when vlookup looks for blue it should return 5 which is sum of 1 + 4 rather than stop when it finds 1.
I have a few macros that need to work with various worksheets which are in different windows.
1. Make the user name the files a certain way for consistency
2. Make the user type the name of each window at the start of execution
I was wondering if there was a more flexible option though: one which would allow the user to choose from a list of open windows (similar to the Window>More Windows>Activate function in Excel).
Ideally the macro would run and say something like, "Which of the following open windows contains dataset1?" "Which of the following open windows contains dataset2?"
I have a long customer listing, names 5 to 36 characters and several with their location in the name as well as a few common duplicate names. I am trying to produce sheet where the customers name once selected opens in the customers spreadsheet and data can be added/amended for sales etc.The lists are not in alphabetical order as when created a customer number is automatically allocated. My aim is just to type in the first letter of the name and the dropdown appears the customer is selected and their card appears. I have tried data validation, lookup, vlookup, Dropdown and Match/find. they only return the first record found and no sign of any others. Find returned all instances of the letter appearing in every name.

View 5 Replies View Relatedwhen you choose Data Validation for a specific cell, you can choose list. Once you have chosen list for "Allow", you can select the source cells for what will be in the drop-down menu. I want to be able to use VBA (or just use Excel) to modify those source cells.
For example:
There will be 3 lists with drop-down menus using Data Validation.
List 1:
Choose first option in list -> List 2 uses source A
Choose second option in list -> List 2 uses Source B
etc...
List 2:
Choose first option in list -> List 3 uses source C
Choose second option in list -> List 3 uses source D
