Column A has (say) 5 cells.
A1 = R, A2 = R, A3 = O, A4 = R, A5 = O
I need to count the Rs and Os separately
So column B ends up with B1 = 1R, B2 = 2R, B3 = 1O, B4 = 3R, B5 = 2O or at least B1 = 1, B2 = 2, B3 = 1, B4 = 3, B5 = 2 so i can later say =B1&A1 to merge them into what i need.
My boss is making me teach an Intermediate Execl class that will last about 55 min to a wide skilled class. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to show the group. I was think of 4 topics but not sure.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI come from a (procedural) programming background, where we perform operations step by step. I tend to use intermediate calculation columns, with only 1 or 2 calculations per formula, or, failing that, use a UDF. I find this easier to debug and maintain.
The solutions I see tend to give the result in one formula. This reminds me of the functional progamming languages I used years ago. I'd like your opinions on what is best-practice, or common practice, in relation to constructing formulas, so that I can improve my development.
I'm working with a fairly large spreadsheet, and need to find out how many times a specific word or numerical value comes up in a column (for instance, I might need to know how many times 'Anderson' comes up in column B). Every time I try to use the sum, dsum, sumif, count, dcount, or countif functions, however, I keep coming up with either 0 or the #VALUE message. This is very frustrating, as you can well imagine. I could try to sort the data by the various terms and values I need and then physically count everything but this strikes me as time-consuming, prone to error (we're talking a few thousand entries, here), and something Excel should theoretically be able to do anyway if only I knew how to ask it.

I have the country, a special key and the product.
I have different products like rismo 12, rismo 100, rismo 200.
But i want to count them all.
So i have the following function.
=+SUMPRODUCT(((ISNUMBER(FIND("rismo";E1:E1000))*1)*(C1:C1000=D2)))*((H1:H1000=60)+(H1:H1000=65)).

My result is always 0.
I am working on a spreadsheet that will provide count of types of complaints for particular areas over a running time span. I have tried a multitude of formulas but not sure how to write any of them correctly. What I am trying to do is generate a count of area type by whether it is formal or informal. (i.e. I want to know if there are x formal finish issues vs. y informal finish issues and so on.) This information will get charted and be kept "real-time" user input.

[Code] ....
I am using VBA to create a word document (.docx). This word document contains plain text content controls as well as picture content controls. I then use VBA to automatically select a picture based on the code below
Code:
Set oCC = Word.ActiveDocument.SelectContentControlsByTitle("TabPic").Item(1)
On Error GoTo TabErrorHandler
oCC.Range.InlineShapes.AddPicture Filename:="X:XFERANDREW-TDCD " & LblVL &
[Code].....
After the document has been closed down I try to open it again and I am told "The file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents."
When I click details it says "Unspecified error" and "Location: Part: /word/document.xml, Line: 2, Column: 0"
If I click ok it says "Word found unreadable content in "". Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you turst the source of this document, click Yes.
Clicking Yes opens the document with all the contents and it is now renamed to Document 1. If I click no it does not open.
I use this to read cell content, add some text/characters (ie. [ and ]) and change the properties of the complete cell
Sub COMMENT()
Worksheets("DVD Lijssie").Activate
If ActiveCell.Value 0 Then ' Change all in to ... ... ...
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ActiveCell.Value & " " & "]" & " " & "["
With ActiveCell.Font
.Name = "Arial Narrow"
.Size = 8
.ColorIndex = 16
End With
End If
End Sub
HOW can I change this vba-code so it leave's the content of the cell like it is and add some content with the use of let's say TexBox1 and ONLY use different font properties for the newely added content?
I have created formulas in cells BB2 through BM2 (1-12). I would like to copy the formula to B3 based on the content of A1 (A1 can only be a number from 1-12, representing months).
Example, if A1=3, return the formula in BE2
Formula in BE2 =
=INDEX('1'!$B$2:$AR$2999,MATCH(INDIRECT("$A"&ROW()),'1'!$A$2:$A$2999,0),MATCH(INDIRECT(CHAR(COLUMN()+64)&"1"),'1'!$B$1:$AZ$1,0))
I have to refer the content of a text box in a formula.
The Text box and the cell containing the formula will be in
the same worksheet.
Is this possible first of all? I searched the excel help in and out
and I could not find a way for this.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to reference a named cell in a VLOOKUP formula as the table_array parameter.
The Named Cell "Input1" contains a table array definition of '[Test.xls]Sheet1'!$H$10:$J$100
When I try VLOOKUP($D3,Input1,3,0) - This returns #N/A as a result.
When I try VLOOKUP($D3,INDIRECT(Input1),3,0) - This returns a #REF error.
When I copy and past the contents of the Input1 named cell directly into the VLOOKUP formula, it works so I know the array reference is valid.
I am not proficient in VBA so I would like to accomplish this using basic Excel formulas if possible. how I can reference the named cell and have the cell value returned in the VLOOKUP function?
I recorded a macro:
Code:

This code is working home on my MacBook, but I wonder if you have any suggestions for improvement? I will assign this macro to a button.
Formula/macro/etc that would enable me to have content of a cell changed based on the content of another cell in the same row.
Example: cell in column D says "PSA" - so I would need the cell in column H for that same row to read "Radio"
I would need an entire sheet scanned to review for these occurrences and make the appropriate changes. I also would need the formula to be inclusive enough to scan for variations in column D cell content (PSA 1, PSA 2, etc).
Attached file 140515 Matchsheet.xlsx has formula that finds costs matching two criteria.
But the formula depends on me typing in the specific Worksheet Name: So to find the cost for 'Type 1' products, I enter:
=IFERROR(INDEX('Type 1'!$E$5:$F$11,MATCH($C$4,'Type 1'!$C$5:$C$11,0),MATCH($D$4,'Type 1'!$E$4:$F$4,0)),"")
I want the formula to "see" the sheet name as whatever is in a specific cell.
E.g. Cell B4 says "Type 2". The formula will be:
=IFERROR(INDEX('[WHATEVER NAME IS IN B4]'!$E$5:$F$11,MATCH($C$4,'[WHATEVER NAME IS IN B4]'!$C$5:$C$11,0),MATCH($D$4,'[WHATEVER NAME IS IN B4]'!$E$4:$F$4,0)),"")
how to pass a cell content into a formula as a named range? For instance, I have 3 named range (Budget, Actual, Forecast) and I use the named range in vlookup formulas. But instead of using the named range in the formula directly, I want to refer to a cell where I can type in which named range I want to use. Can this be done? I am attaching a sample spreadsheet to clarify what I mean.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI want is a field (e.g Large Parts Used) where I can enter in a number, then basically this number is subtracted from current stock field for Large Parts so I get an updated field of current stock on hand.
But what I want to do is once I've entered the number in the Large Parts used field, I can then clear that field but have the corresponding Current stock field to maintain what was last enetered.
E.g
Large Parts Current Stock = 50
(enter in) Large Parts Used = 2
Large Parts Current Stock = 48
(Clear field where 2 was entered into Large Parts used)
(Field still stays at Large Parts Current Stock = 48 although field where 2 was entered was cleared, so need it to save the information so can continually clear and re-enter amounts and have the stock continue to reduce)
going down are stores a, b, c, d.... what i'm filing in across is the square feet of each store and what quartr or year each store came into place. so there will either be a 0 or a number Now, I want to be able to count the number of nhew stores each quarter. how do i create a formula that just recognizes it the first time there is a number and not a zero... because i will put the square feet in subsequent quarters after it opens so i can see yearly how many square feet the store had. then also, how can create a button on the page that will say quarterly numbers and a button that is annual. so that i can hide the quarterly columns and just see an annual spreadsheet... and for the quarterly button so i can hide the annuals and just see the quarters....

The attached example explains things a lot better.
I am going to have 2 formulas. 1 for the "Big" group and one for the "Small" The formula needs to look first at the column that has the group in it. Then it needs to count everything is column A excluding "Snake" And return the value.
I want to count cells in column AA that are graeter than 160, and in column N = "RM" and in column A = "CBP". Can't seem to get this right.

Is there anyway to do this without subtotalling for each document and then a count?
I have been using the wrong formula to count total entries in columns and only just found this error. The MAX formula in cell B4 is: =MAX($B$12:$B$36). If the all the rows are full within range F12:F36, then the MAX formula is fine to count the total within range B12:B36 (25) so I thought. But sometimes there are omissions between F12:F36. If there are 2 blank cells anywhere within F12:F36 for example, then B4 needs to show 23 respectively. In the sample WkBk B4 needs to show 8

How to determine the correct formula for this requirement?
Assuming I have 2 individual excel files and an index excel file (in reality, there are more than hundreds of file). For index excel, once the user enter part number (eg. 1 or 2), the excel will look for the part number excel file and determine vlookup function.
The only problem I have here is I can not make the index file automatically add the part number shown on most left column into the required formula (replace the part number file section).
I tried use the indirect function but this require each file to be opened, which is not possible for actual use. I am looking for a function that can work in closed worksheet.

I am currently trying to create a spreadsheet whereby if I enter certain text in a cell in Column A on worksheet 1 that correlates with text in a cell in Column A on Worksheet 2, then the description in Column B in Worksheet 2 is entered into Column B on worksheet 1.
For example, if worksheet 2 has the following:
Column A Column B
XXXX PRODUCT 1
YYYY PRODUCT 2
and I enter XXXX in column A on worksheet 1, I want Column B on worksheet 1 to automatically enter PRODUCT 1.
I have a spreadsheet that keeps track of document collection.
Column A is document name
Column B is department name
Column C-N represent quarters of the year. Ie 1st qtr 2012, 2nd qtr 2012 up to 4th qtr 2014
Conditional formatting changes the row to red if the last day of the qtr is less than today showing those documents as past due.
I mark the Cell "Good" if the documents received meet quality checks.
What I would like to do is:
Create a formula showing the present completion percentage by department.
The trouble I'm having is discounting the future cells that aren't applicable until they become past due.
I thought just counting the red cells and green cells but I can't get any of the conditional formatting counting codes to work for me. Tried pearson's CF vba and similar.
In one cell I can get the CFColorIndex to work and pull back the color index but in another cell trying same syntax trying to get the color index of a different cell I get #Value. CountCFColorIndex I just get #Value no matter what I try.
Can I count blank cells in a range if the Qtr ending date is less than today?
Would I have to have a multiple if formula to capture each qtr?
