Look Up Function Does Not Work: Look If The Record Is In Another Range And Apply Some Maths
Dec 22, 2009
i used excel as a calculator but when i needed to make some effort to reach a solution for my problem it let me down, so i will write my problem
i have a record in my data base and i want excel to look if the record is in another range and apply some maths. so i wrote this formula
Essentially i get a Runtime 5 error on the bold bit of code....
I am trying to define a range .... by using thexlUp function find the last row ( which works ) i then pass this variable into the sort code and get the error its probably very simple to fix, all it does i sort columnA but finds the last cell .... instead of the whole column,,,,
I have three columns where my workers record the amounts of work they do during the day. The columns are labelled as follows:
Column A – “Correspondences’’ Column B – “Linking’’ Column C – “Allocating”
When a task has been completed an “X’’ is put in the relevant column (which is then summed at the bottom). I use these sums to calculate each workers productivity in the following way – number of “x’’ divided by number of days worked. This is a simple formula, however, each “x” now equates to time – which is causing me problems. An “x’’ is Column A equals 1 hour, Column B 1 hour and Column C 2 hours.
I am looking for someone to help me create a formula which will calculate all possibilities in the above situation above. Please bear in mind that a worker can do one of these tasks during the course of a week, two or all three .
How I can apply an IF function for four or more columns. for example: if the value is the same in four or more cells, IF function can type OK, if not something else.
what I am doing is this : =IF(H2=I2=J2=K2=L2,"OK","Not Equal") but I always receive the value"not equal" even when the all cells have the same value. The cells values are found using formula so I did copy and paste value but I received the same result.
how to make the << and >> buttons as well as the find button work on this form. Here is the code for the >> (next Record) button. I think if I can understand how one of them is supposed to work I can do the rest. I have been trying for days to figure it out, and even with RoyUK's help I still can not get it to work....
I have attached a sheet with what I am trying to accomplish...
I have several records that I am doing a lookup through. Most records have the same "work order number". As you can see on the attached sheet, my lookup function returns all the work order numbers that match my criteria.
What I need is to only return the first instance of the work order number then return the next unique work order number that meets my criteria.
I would like to have a set of cells that add up all the sales within a given week. I know how to do this simply for one week, but how do I get Excel to automatically take this function and create the rest for future weeks?
After entering the SUM function in one cell, I click and drag on the box to try to get Excel to correctly input the functions in the next cells (like how Excel will correctly input the next date, week, or month). But Excel doesn't do it correctly.
im trying to do is create a database of autocad drawings based on style of house number of bedrooms sq ft and if theres a garage. what i am wondering is how can i add a search function. for example i want to find a Cape with 2 bedrooms...i have all the information on the spreadsheet. what do i need to do to be able to search among the spread sheet without using the find function this is just the beginning of the data
In column A is the drawing number and in Column B is the revision number.
I am trying to write a macro that will alert the user when they are trying to enter a drawing that contains BOTH the same drawing number AND the same revision number as one already in the database.
Since drawing numbers will be reused and only revision numbers changed when a revision is entered, I need the function to check both column A and Column B then display a msgbox if there is a match.
I'm comfortable with the IF statements in excel and not familir with many of the other functions available to me. I am trying to create a character calulator for Elder Scrolls III (Marrowind). So that a person may enter their race, ***, and other choices and their by calculating all starting stats. There are 10 races you can choose from and I can cover 9 of them with the if function (leaving one as if all other options are false). I would like to know if there is a better way such as a drop down list or some way to search an array or anything that would be better suited to search the race cell and return data if it's true. I'm running into the same probably with choosing the constalation (13 choices in this catagory).
I thought to split it two different data fields, by letting you choose from 4 in one cell and the other 9 in a different cell, but realized I don't know how to make it check two different cells for a choice to return it to the display cell without hitting the limitation of the 7 nested funcations in a forumla again.
How do I change this formula to represent a range? I want cells C2:C18, but I ran out of arguments - can't add any more. If DRC or Production shows in the column, I want the word "Outstanding" if not, I want the word "Completed" .....
I have a range of cells in a work sheet "sheet 1 " my objective is to filter this range according to certain criteria (i ve succeeded to do this ) yet what i want to do now is copy this data to another existing worksheet in a certain range .
note :the existing worksheet to which i 'll copy the filtered data has some cells out of the range that i dont want to over write ..
Simply :how to copy a selected range of cells in a work sheet to already existing work sheet in a specific range aswell .
I seek advice on using the value of NOW() as a record ID in an address book program. Question #1: Do Excel developers often use a record ID? Question #2: What record ID schemes are fequently employed besides date/time? I have decided to create an Excel address book as an exercise to increase my knowledge of VBA, and also as a useful application for work.
I realize that a record ID is not essential in Excel in the way that it is essential in Access, but I feel the need to have some unique ID associated with each address, so that I may have different worksheets, with data related to a given Contact, sort and manipulate it, if necessary, but have the record ID as a way to restore the relationship of rows to a given Contact, and also, as a handy way to examine the data in the date/time sequence in which it was entered. I have experimented with the following code, to assure myself that I can access the number returned by the NOW() function, manipulate it as a string, and format in various ways if necessary.
Dim n As Double n = Now() sn = Str(n) p = InStr(sn, ".") first = Left(sn, (p - 1)) l = Len(sn) d = l - p S = Mid(sn, (p + 1), d)....................
I am looking to get a formula based on my spreadsheet attached
I want F column to add 5 days onto whatever date you put in there then correspond it to the matched date period in I2-I6 then apply the pay period from H2-H6 and put it in the G Column next to the date that has been input?
I recorded a macro in which I applied a conditional format to a range (the selection).But, when i replay this macro, the conditional format is only applied to the first cell in the range. This can be seen in the "Manage Rules" dialog of Conditional formatting, where the "applies to" column shows only one cell, even though a range of cells was selected by the code.
I set a breakpoint at the first line of code here, and confirmed that the selection is correct, and indeed it is, as in the immediate window, ?Selection.Address correctly gives "$O$6:$O$21".
why the conditional format ends up only applied to cell O6 after the code runs?
"How can i apply a conditional format to a range of multiple cells, based on an expression, using VBA?"
Note that my range is within a PivotTable (but still, this works fine in the UI when i record the macro and the conditional format is correctly applied to the entire selected range).
I'm using the code below to create sheets and copy pertinent data for each value found in column O on my data sheet.
Code: Sub CreateSheets() Dim WBO As Workbook Dim ThisWS
[Code]....
What I'm now trying to do, is apply a formula for each cell, in columns C:N for each newly created sheet. The formula is 'The value of 100 minus the value of the cell'.
I've tried adding
Code: cell.Value = 100 - cell.Value to differing points of the script but I recieve a 'Type mismatch error.
Not sure what I'm doing wrong here but I think my syntax is wrong, here is the
Sub CalculatSG() Dim FinalRow As Integer FinalRow = Range("C" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row Range("BU5") = "=(BT5/100)*AE52" Range("BU5").Copy Range("BU5:BU[" & FinalRow & "]").Activate Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks _ :=False, Transpose:=False End Sub
My objective is to apply the same calculation to the range of cells; the range may change which is why I have defined FinalRow and passed this as a refernence.
I have a number of houses & a number of water plants (as in water processing plants, not the green kind!) Each water plant can provide a certain % water coverage to all properties. 'All Properties' is classed as the number of houses + the number of water plants. The 'coverage' as a percentage is given by the formula:
I'm looking for the least amount of code to apply a border around every cell in a selected range. The standard With Selection approach is to go through six times for the sides, top, bottom, and insides, which results in a lot of code.
I attempted a single code line approach (Selection.Borders.LineStyle = xlContinuous), but I cannot seem to influence the color or thickness of the line. I'm not looking for fancy here...standard xlThin in black color is all I need.
I have used VBA to apply conditional formating to a range of cells. i.e if cell B14 <>"" then row 14 is pale blue untill cell V14 is populated with the time then it removes the formating. One criteria is that if Q14(21/08/06 20:00)>NOW(AA2) and < NOW+1(AA3) then Row turns green(i.e. is due in the next 24 hrs).
Problem is that this formula is applied after a field is updated. When 21/08/06 20:00 comes and goes the row remains green unless I update one of the fields along that row. What would I have to do to make the formating change back automatically when the critera is no longer being met. Here is my codethere are 2 other if statements similar to this with in this code but this is the only part that shouldn't require any user input for the formatting to occour)

I find it to be a little irritating that I have to remove the autofilter, then reapply it whenever I start entering data into a new column. I want a macro that I can assign to a button so all I need to do is hightlight the range of cells I want to apply the autofilter to, and click the button.
