Missing A Left Or Right Parentheses
Dec 10, 2009I am using excel 2007:
I have created the following formula (with some help from this forum), but I am getting an error message saying I am missing a left or right parentheses.

Add Parentheses (indicate By (32))
Nov 9, 2008I work in school and and I have to enter test marks of students in excel 2003.
Here is my question:
If student's mark is below 40(e.g. 32), I want to indicate it by (32).
What Does (3) And (1) Mean In Parentheses
Feb 5, 2014What does the (3) and (1) mean in the parentheses?
The (3) is sloppy coding instead of using the enumeration (xlUp), which you could actually read. The (1) means the first element of the range, which is wholly redundant; it already refers to a single-cell range.
Compare Two Columns, If Missing Insert Missing Data
Jul 8, 2008I have two columns which i want to compare, they contain text data such as A123.
what I'd like is if its in column A and not in Column B then add to bottom of column A.
Once its in column A i can do the vlookup's to draw the other data, costs etc, over but don't know how to identify, and add, the missing codes to the list.
Extract Data Between Parentheses?
Apr 2, 2013I have a long list beginning either with 4 numbers or 4 numbers followed by parentheses and a single number between them. I have this formula to extract the data between parentheses:
Code:
=MID(A7,FIND("(",A7)+1,SUM(FIND({"(",")"},A7)*{-1,1})-1)
What can I do to eliminate a "#VALUE!" result for cells that do not contain parentheses?
Extracting Data Within Parentheses
Sep 15, 2006I need to come up with a formula that will pull the data located within parentheses. Here is an example below:
CHRISTINE DALEY (497998)
LINDA DALEY (503094)
STEPHAN DANIEL (100360949)
Copy Text Within Parentheses From One Cell To Another
Oct 20, 2012I want to do something similar but it is looking for values between parentheses "()" and won't work with the VB suggested. I've seen some other formulas that do find the content within the parentheses but returns #VALUE! if there is not a parentheses in the field. I'd like it to copy the original value of A2 into B2 for those instances. PROBLEM: Database with First Names in A2 where some have "nicknames" entered within () and I need a clean column of values to use. "IF A2 contains () then copy (contents) into B2, else copy A2" is how I'd write in english... not sure how to do correctly in code/vb.
VB:
Sub PartialText()
Dim MyValue$
Dim ChangedValue$

Removing Parentheses From Text Cell
Jan 3, 2013An externally generated CSV file gives us one column which shows a location, year and then individual names in brackets, like so:
London 2013 (Firstname Lastname)
Delhi 2012 (Firstname Lastname)
I'm wondering if it is possible to separate out the text before the parentheses, so that I can show "London 2012" (for example) in another cell. The number of characters changes from row to row, so using the LEFT and RIGHT functions doesn't quite do the job.
Parentheses For Negative Percent Results -
Jul 15, 2002I have been able to format single cells to display negative percents (Budget to Actual hours), but I cannot copy the formatting to cells with positive percents without eliminating the format style I want. [I need to display, with the parenthesis, (13.6%)for negative results, but say, 18.6% for positive results.] When I copy the correctly formatted cell (13.6%) to another cell with a positive result, it sets the display to general formating.
As I have over 25 rows of data to compare against 62 projects and 12 programs, with each value potentially changing from one analysis to the other, I am looking for a method to automatically change the "look" of the results. I have looked at conditional formatting, but have had no indication this will do what I am looking for.
Goal Seek VBA Syntax - With / Without Parentheses
Nov 25, 2008I've been playing around with GoalSeek in VBA because of this thread and found something about the syntax that I don't understand.
If I want to find out whether GoalSeek worked, I can use
Ok = Range("B1").GoalSeek(Goal:=10, ChangingCell:=Range("A1"))
Debug.Print Ok
This requires parentheses around the GoalSeek arguments.
If I just want to do the GoalSeek, then I need
Range("B1").GoalSeek Goal:=10, ChangingCell:=Range("A1")
with no parentheses. Why? The Help says that GoalSeek returns True if it works, and the proforma syntax includes parentheses, but then the only example uses the syntax without parentheses.
Remove Numbers & Brackets In Parentheses
Oct 11, 2007I tried to use the find and replace function to delete different numbers from different cells (all in one column) but the problem is that I want to delete different kind of numbers.
Let me give you an example:
Starting point:
Cell A1: Bookrunner: Barclays Capital(368.726m)
Cell A2: Bookrunner: DBS(368m)
Cell A3: Mandated Arranger: Commonwealth Bank of Australia (Singapore)(367.163m)
Cell A4: Mandated Arranger: DnB NOR ASA (Singapore)(367.163m)
I want to reach here:
Cell A1: Bookrunner: Barclays
Cell A2: Bookrunner: DBS
Cell A3: Mandated Arranger: Commonwealth Bank of Australia (Singapore)
Cell A4: Mandated Arranger: DnB NOR ASA (Singapore)
(I don’t want the information in “()” like “(Singapore)” to be deleted! Only the “()” which contains numbers)
I used the “find and replace” function to delete ever single number, but I think it’s a little unprofessional to do so!
Nesting IF Statements: Use Of Isblank Or Lack/placement Of Parentheses
Jun 2, 2009I'm trying to nest if statements that also include "and" and "isblank" factors. The following formula isn't working, and I'm not sure if it's because of my use of isblank or lack/placement of parentheses.

May 22, 2014Any formula for removing text within multiple sets of parentheses?
I would like to take something like this: Compared with placebo, dimethyl fumarate was shown to be effective in the treatment of patients with MS in the phase 3 DEFINE (Gold R et al. N Engl J Med. 2012; 367:1098-1107) and CONFIRM (Fox R et al. N Engl J Med. 2012;367:1087-1097) trials. Common adverse effects associated with dimethyl fumarate that were observed in these trials included flushing and GI events, as well as decreased lymphocyte counts and elevated liver aminotransferase levels.
and have it read: Compared with placebo, dimethyl fumarate was shown to be effective in the treatment of patients with MS in the phase 3 DEFINE and CONFIRM trials. Common adverse effects associated with dimethyl fumarate that were observed in these trials included flushing and GI events, as well as decreased lymphocyte counts and elevated liver aminotransferase levels.
I wish to automate this task so formulas (if possible) are preferred. Totally cool with a multi-formula, many-columned solution - as long as this task is automated.
NB: Each cell will contain different text, so the sets of parentheses will appear in different places. The number of parenthetical sets may also vary from 1-5.

Editing Formula Shows Text All Red, Parentheses Color-coded
Oct 20, 2007But the formula seems to be working properly.
I've got ALOT of parentheses, 5 nested IFs, 5 ANDs, 4 ORs. The ANDs and ORs are within the IFs.
While editing the formula, I can, at times, achieve the condition where the cell references become color-coded. Or at least some of them do. But, when I get to this point, I'm usually at a spot where I can see the formula isn't right.
I'm confused. What does it mean when my text is all red when I go to edit a formula? Did I hit some limit? Again, I don't get error messages and the formula seems to work properly.
Autofill Formula To The Left (fill To The Left)
Feb 5, 2009I am having trouble filling a formulae series to the left on one spreadsheet, the fomulae being references to another sheet.
For example, I have two sheets 'Mtce Options' and 'Base Case'. In 'Mtce Options' I have the following formulae
A B C
1='Base Case'!A15='Base Case'!D15='Base Case'!G15
I want to fill to the left, incrementing the column references by a factor of 2 each time, eg. next two should be ='Base Case'!J15 and ='Base Case'!M15.
However, if I autofill to the left by highlighting A1, B1 and C1 or just B1 and C1 all I get is an inappropriate reference such as ='Base Case'!D15 or ='Base Case'!F15, respectively, in D15.

How To Validate If Left Cell Value And Left Cell Above Value Are Not Same
Sep 16, 2013I have a column that is giving unwanted value . dont know the reason as that excel file has been created by some other guy and I just started working on it .
My Question is how to move to 2 cells left(A for example) from from that unwanted value column. and check if
A is equal to cell above it , means B Cell(Row above A but same column).
As my excel file is totally based on Forms, Macros, I am not quite familiar with macros.
Is there any way to put if condition in one cell (column) and drag it all the way down which should work for all the values in these 3 column.
And also if A=B then I want to make that unwanted value cell="".

Missing Tab In Spreadsheet?
Mar 3, 2014I have received a spreadsheet by email and when I opened it the formulas all had errors. I did a little investagating and found that when I use the viewer to open it there is an additional tab that is missing when I open it in Excel. I did check for hidden tabs but then realized that the formula would have still worked even if the tab was hidden, in this case it is just missing.

Missing From One Or Another Sheet
Apr 16, 2007I have 2 spreadsheets. One has one type of info and another has another type of info for the same items.
For example:
1st spreadsheet has: server name, serial number, model.
2nd spreadsheet has: amount of memory for each server, number of CPUs, etc.
Note that some servers are missing from one or another sheet. So all info needs to be combined.
What is the easiest way to combine all info in a single spreadsheet?
Missing Values As Non-zero
Jun 9, 2007I am facing a problem importing Excel data into a finicky graphics program. This program can't accept strings and numbers in the same column. Hence, strings such as #NA, or Excel's standard "" can't be used where there are missing values, as the entire column is then ignored.
But, I would like to provision for future data below the rows that currently exist.
Let's say I am trying to read data from Sheet1 of a workbook. The rows in Sheet1 contain formulas referencing other sheets (e.g. Sheet2!C1-Sheet2!C2). So, if Sheet2 doesn't have data in a certain row, Excel would show 0 in the formula on Sheet1. That would mess up my graph. If I use any other string or "" using a If statement for missing data, then the graphics program doesn't work.
Is there any way say, using dynamic ranges or similar, to populate blank cells in Sheet1 as data arrive in Sheet2, without a pre-existing formula being present in these Sheet1 cells? I can imagine that VBA macros will easily do this (e.g. the thread on Autofill below). But, is this possible without having to trigger a macro as and when additional data arrive?

Oct 2, 2008I have created a 4 page chart in landscape with text in each of the 4 columns in the chart.
When I looked at it in print preview the chart did not fill the page and so to widen the last 2 columns I dragged them over to the right hand margin. I am still definitely within the right hand dotted line showing the margin limit.
The problem is that I cannot now put a border line down the extreme right hand column. Every time I click on any of the border instructions in the Font tab nothin appears on the right hand side of the box.
