Basically, i've got 90 players on a ladder. When one beats the other they replace them in their position and the beaten player moves down one.
Has anyone got any idea how I can set it up so that I have got a box come up with players names in a drop down box. I can then select the player on the left who has won, and the player on the right who has lost, enter it and the ladder to automatically update.
I have an Excel Workbook that is linked to Word.docm files and I want to put them on a CD, But I need for it to have a setup/uninstall format attached. Or maybe you might have a better method. The reasons for the setup/uninstall is for the unknowing person, with limited computer skills. This way from the autorun to setup/uninstall it will already give a destination to install file and add an icon on desktop. More user friendly.

can excel be programmed to give an accurate forecast of what will be the number/ percentage of successful sales records over the next 100, 50, 30 and 10 new record entry ranges, using the database history?, then which of the new records within each selected range are most likely to be successful sales using the database history?
If so, what components or data references are needed in a worksheet to meet these requirements to allow for creating an accurate forecasting application within excel?

Some "Clever" person decided to create a site plan using MS Excel. It has been done quite well tbh. The problem with Excel is that I am unable to set a custom page size as this plan sits nicely on a paper size I made ealier through using Word. Guess what there is a custom page size selection on Word but not Excel. Is there a walkaround for this ?
The only other way I can do this, is to print off 2 a4 landcape print out but the printer goes to the next page and leaves a nasty seperation.

When I protect the entire sheet, I can click in a cell and see what's in it, when I protect just a portion of the sheet, I can only click in the unprotected cells. Is this an Excel thing, or am I doing something wrong when protecting? I would like to see what the formula is in the cell when protected, but I can't click on the cell, what's the deal?
View 8 Replies View RelatedWe have 100+ clients. Each client has inventory in our warehouse. Every day we write down how many items went out to our client on a piece of paper and subtract that number to get a balance inventory. When we run low, we order more on a new FO number. What is the best approach for tracking this? I was thinking one way is to put our clients in a drop box at the top of the page and then the data will appear at the bottom, however I can't get that to work. I am trying filters to see, but I am unable to subtract the balance automatically from the last FO# and from the correct area.
Is there a way to choose a client and product at the top of the page and have the tracking below?
I'm trying to Pearson Ranks correlation table. This is the formula I'm
using:
=PEARSON(Ranks!$B$3:$B$230,Ranks!B$3:B$230)
This is placed in cell B3. When I copy the formula over to DT3 the formula
correctly adjusts the B in the second part of the formula all the way to DT
and still references the values in the B column.
But I want to now copy this down to C4, D5, E6 and then over to DT for each
so that it correctly makes the correlation table.
I set up a spreadsheet for use by my colleagues, on an Acer 17 inch portable. My colleagues all use HP or Dell with 15 inch monitors (and different graphics cards to mine). They all complained that when they opened my sheet, the page breaks were all in the wrong place. When they fixed the breaks on their machines and I opened those file, the breaks were now in the wrong place on mine, but were all right on theirs.
I have now "upgraded" to a Toshiba 17 inch laptop, and find that my original spreadsheet done on the Acer 17 inch shows page breaks in the wrong place on my new machine.
Is this something to do with display adaptors? If so, does anyone know what I can do to standardise this across the board? (My boss uses a 20 inch screen, and the sheet for him is even more wildly out).
This part of my macro can be improved as it runs through over 100 sheets and takes a while?

Example, I have a spreadsheet with 5 tabs with each of them different page setup options.
I have a second spreadsheet with 5 tabs where I need to make the page setup the same for each tab as the saved spreadsheet #1.
Background: This is a workaround for not being able to do copy/paste special values for pivot tables. My workaround is to save an .xlsx as a .mht then reopen and save as .xlsx. The only problem is that I lose page setups through the process.
I've managed to clean up my code removing all of the selecting to get the macro to run faster but it seems to slow down when it gets to the page setup. Is it because of the ActiveSheet? Is there a better way to code the following?
View 10 Replies View RelatedOnce a week I need to export data to excel for a report. Some weeks there may be 30 rows and other weeks there may be 100 rows. I created a macro in the attached spreadsheet called 247 formattedV2 that seems to work fine except that it seems to get caught up in the Page Set up area. Here is the things that I have already in the macro that need to be accomplished.
1.All cells should be set to wrap text
2.Bottom justify text on row 1 for wrap text
3.Top justify all rows below it for wrap text
4.Adjust width of columns to exactly what is shown. If text runs over, it should wrap (shown in parenthesis)
5.Center all titles at the top of each column - show with grey background as indicated
6.Center text in columns A, B & C
7.Lighten grey cell in beteen each call (keep them in for all notes, they were accidently removed in this version)
8.Darken grey cell for column headers
Page setup: Set margins to narrow setting at .25 top, bottom, left, right. Set to landscape. Should be 1 page width, as many as necessary for height
Set for 8.5x14 paper (legal size)
Column Widths
•A - Last Call Date (w=10),
•B - Priority (w=7),.............

I am setting up a spreadsheet to be able to calculate loads on spread footings. The thing is the footings may be as small as a 2 x 2 or as large as a 6 x 6 or any combination inbetween so I need a coordinate system (to the nearest inch with a max of 1800 inches) to be able to assign each spread footing to a certain spot in the system with which I can calculate the soil stresses.
I intend to make this as idiot proof as possible for anyone who uses this spreadsheet so I was going to set it up as in the attachment where a user can input each individual load on each footing and the distance between it and its neighbors. The numbers are just random values with in each footing and feet between each one. Naturally most people would probably begin data entry in the upper left footing first so I was going to make that the origin unless for coding purposes the lower left would be best.
In this case the upper left footing would be 0,0 and the footing to its right 20,0 and the one farther right 55,0 (20+35) and so forth.
I have an 6 sheet excel workbook that generates 27 additional sheets upon an executed macro. I am trying to page setup the additonal 27 sheets only to a zoom of 90. Here is what I have so far but this zooms all 33 sheets.
HTML Sub zoom_2()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim wk As Worksheet
For Each wk In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
wk.Activate
With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
.zoom = 90 End With
Range("A1").Select
Next wk
Sheets("data").Activate

My worksheet (excel 2003) contains lots of details and requires different page setup for printing e.g.
(a) Cells B3 to R3 downwards: Data details, which user may add more rows of records
(b) Cell S1-Z20: Data summary (formula) linked with (a)
(c) Cell AA1-AK15: Pivot Table linked with (b)
Therefore, I set buttons, linked with 3 macros to do page setup for the different ranges. However, I had some problems i.e.
1. For print area (a), how to define print area parameter in a macro to check the last row of data. i.e. check for last "blank cell" of column "C-E" (others columns contain formula before input the data)
2. In the future, if I or user insert new columns in area (a), is it possible to setup macro that have print area for (a) - (c) shifted without changing the parameter in the macro?

I have created options buttons in excel. You know the ones that are 3D and are round and you click in them? I've setup a sheet with questions and a yes, no, or N/A clickable button for each question. It is only allowing me to place a dot in one button at a time. I"m sure this has something to do with grouping. But, if I right click I don't have the choice to go to properties and change the group for the button. Please let me know how I should proceed. Wish I could copy and paste a picture of what I'm talking about. If I right click on the button I get these options:
Cut
Copy
Paste
Edit Text
Grouping (this button only lets me select the regrouping option that doesn't work)
Order
