I have a spreadsheet that has numbers in column A (example = 31, 15, 159) I want to count the number (159) each time it occurs and keep a running count of it in say column B... example..... A1 = 159, A2 = 31, A3 = 159, so B3 would show (2) as the number 159 has appeared 2 times thus far.
View 3 RepliesI have a string of numbers and characters and I have a Macro that I copy-pasted from somewhere online that REMOVES any character that is not a number.
Is a great Macro that transforms:
"-a209 03 . 1 - 22 46" to 2090312246
I can send the code on request.
However the problem comes when running the macro into that string excel transforms it DIRECTLY into a Numeric. That is we are missing the first two, or first characters when they are zeros.
For example: "007 01 1.32.08" becomes 70113208 in stead of: 0070113208
And this is a problem.
I have tried to define the cell as text before running the macro. Fails. I have tried to re-define the cell afterwards as text but the zeros do not appear. Fails.
Including in the Macro a last minute section that forces the cell to remain as text...(seems easy! but I have do not know how to program in VBA)
Is it possible to have numbers added to the same cell and have excel continue to calculate the addition for me in that same cell......ex: I have the number 8 in cell d2 and I want to add the number 8 to that cell and have excel add the 8 to the previous 8 for a total of 16 in the same cell.....the next time I would add 5, and the total would be 21? Can this be done in a single cell?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI'm dealing with an Excel spreadsheet. I have a list of orders on one sheet and I need to keep a running total of the amounts of the items being ordered.
Example - I have three different orders:
sheet1
1. Fried Chicken
French Fries
2. Salad
French Fries
3. Fried Chicken
Salad
French Fries
sheet2
Fried Chicken 2
French Fries 3
Salad 2
So, on sheet2 I need to somehow reference sheet1, find how many times the items "Fried Chicken", "French Fries" and "Salad" are listed and then put the total amounts next to the name on sheet2. But if I add any more of any item to the sheet1 the total will go up on sheet2.
Does that make any sense? I tried to say it as simply as I could.
I'm not really dealing with fried chicken, salad and french fries here, but that's a simple example to show you what I need.

I have a spreadsheet that I want to keep track of how many rounds mulitple weapons have fired. I have a current rounds cell, a last fired cell and total rounds cell. The problem is that when I enter the number of rounds shot in the "last fired cell", the sum of the total rounds cell goes up (via the sum function) however, is there a way to keep that number there, even though I will replace the last fired cell with a new number the next time I fire the weapon?
I am trying to get my Excel Worksheet to count the times that a cell changes. The data is in Column C, and I want to enter it in column H. For example. If Currently, the count in C1 is 5, but changes to 4, H1 should read one, then the next day, if I change the value from 4 to 7, H1 should read 2, and so forth and so forth. I am counting the amount of changes to a cell.
I want it going the length of the column, but for each cell, like C2 lines up with H2 and so forth. I have looked everywhere for a particular Macro, but am having a hard time finding one.
My Worksheet uses Hyperlinks to open files. I want to have another cell in this Worksheet incremently report the number of times that the Hyperlink is used to open a file, like a Web Style "Hit" Counter.

I have a big clunky spreadsheet that I thought I'd tidy up by adding a userform to keep the info
There's a combination of textboxes, option buttons, listboxes and a multipage. Everything seems to load correctly, and selecting an item in a listbox correctly fills the textboxes, but when I change the value of the textboxes, only 2 out of 4 holds that value and sends it to the correct cell.
The code that is supposed to send all the values is;
VB:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'check that a row has been selected
If Range("K3") = "" Then
[Code].....
The culprits are TextBox3 and TextBox4.
I've tried changing the names, I've checked that there are no other textboxes pasted on top, I've even tried adding in a MsgBox line to show the value of the textbox; if the form loads and the box grabs a value of "ABC" from the spreadsheet, and I change it to "DEF", when I hit the button to execute the above code the textbox goes straight back to "ABC".
But it's not an issue with TextBox2 ...
Other parts of the code include a UserForm_Activate block and 5 x ListBox_Click's.
I actually have time entered as a number and decimal.
10.29 means 10 minutes and 29 seconds. How can I get that to only seconds 629?

what i am trying to do is set up a sheet to keep track of what has been paid and the balance remaining for each stage and what has been received
i have tried doing it a few different ways but im none to clever with spread sheets and what is causing me the problem is next to each payment made i need to put the date and the name of the person who was paid so it always seems to just look a cluttered mess

I'm using the hidden-row trick to auto-fill cells beneath the hidden rows.
For this to work, every cell that is to be auto-filled in must have a character in every cell above it.
How can I make sure that my unfilled cells always have a character in them? If a user deletes the contents of the cell, I want a single character to stay in the cell (I want a backslash). This way, there will always be either a backslash, or the user-filled data in the cell. It can never be empty.
my spreadsheet I have a column(7.65462E+11) it's a upc code.I can format the column to read as a number (value) but when I save it I does not save the number format.It's really interesting that there are some rows that read exactly the same and those rows keep the number formatting.Going nuts.Also when I try to save a date format(2013-mm-dd) It won't save,I've read that it's system default in U.S,is there a way around that ?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make it so that a lastrow I defined in one module will still be defined in another macro.
My background for this - my macro is too large for one module, therefore, I split it in two. However, the new module uses defined variables (multiple lastrow definitions) from the original module.
So, is there a way to make it so when I originally define a lastrow in one module, other modules will recognize it?
How can I get this macro to run without removing the hyperlinks from the 1st line of each group?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have dumped main frame data into excel. It is customer info that is in three rows of data each. I need to know if its possible to group or somehow keep three rows of data together for multiple sorts. The first row is the customer name, the second row is their first line of address, the third row is the city, state and zip. I need to add columns to this dumped data, but I will need to do a number of sorts for different views of the data. But as I've stated every 3 rows go together. I've tried different ways to group (for lack of a better word) the three rows, but nothing I've tried works. I've also done multiple searches, but either I'm not searching on the right word or this can't be done.

When it finds it do the following
Go to Column N and enter todays date as a value.
Go to Column Q and Enter No
Delete the data in R:S and U:V and X:Y and AA:AB and AD:AE
Go to Column J This contains the name of another worksheet i.e. Data1
Go to the worksheet Data1
Search down Column C and find all instances of that the the number entered into the inputbox (there could be several).
Go to each instance and delete the number.

Abby 16
Amy 15

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have two columns, the left of which consists of merged cells. I got the document in this format, but to work with it, I need to unmerge the cells in the left column - simple enough.
However, when I do so, only the top cell in the group contains any actual data. What I get is this:
Age
18-20
21-25
26-30
And I would like it to look this way:
Age

Is there a simple way to get this result automatically when unmerging the cells? And if not, what is the fastest solution to avoid tons of manual copying?
There is one crucial feature to the 2007 Excel that has been overlooked.
Throughout all versions of Excel there has always been the feature of
converting text to table, however there is no way to do this in reverse.
There is no way to merge two columns of data and to keep all of the data
without one column overwriting the other. If only there were an automatic
way to merge two columns of data and to be able to place a delimited
character in-between, just like the “Convert Text to Columns Wizard”, except
in reverse. Currently, the only way to merge two columns of data is to
manually go row-by-row and cut and paste them together. However, for 500,000
rows of data… this is impossible. Or to use a function to merge two columns,
however this requires that the original two columns remain. This is also
unacceptable. If Microsoft really wants to make Excel more functional, how
can this vast improvement be overlooked?
I've managed to be able to create a macro to make a copy of a worksheet within excel.
However, when that copy is create all the macros are lost. If it is not possible to copy all the macros that are within the "Original Hours" sheet, I at least need a macro that will take people back to the original hours sheet (we have disabled sheet tabs, so need the macros to navigate through the worksheet).
Code used is below
Private Sub Hours_Click()
Sheets("Original hours").Copy After:=Sheets("Original hours")
ActiveSheet.Name = "Update hours"
ActiveSheet.Unprotect "PASSWORD"
With ActiveSheet.UsedRange
.Value = .Value
Sheets("Update hours").Select
End With
