I need to filter a list without the use of the Auto Filter or arrays. I'm importing the list into Xcelsius which doesn't support these functions. I will need to do the filtering with functions.
I have a list of a couple of thousand (and more) individual items. I want to filter the list and have a box for users to type in text (there are no numbers) and the results will be seen automatically reducing in number as more text is entered. (Similar to the Windows HELP files )
eg, typing A (or a) will show all entries beginning with A (without pressing
"Enter" or similar
typing AB will show only entries beinning with AB
typing ABO will show .........I guess you will understand the idea.
I have tried various forms of Filter - Auto and advanced - but still cannot get the spreadsheet to do what I want. Unless I am not doing the Autofilter (or Advanced filter) correctly (I am still a relative beginner!) I still cannot find a way of simply adding letters to a cell or input box and the filtering takes place 'automatically' as the letters are added.
I have created a spreadsheet copying and pasting data from other workbooks. When I select filter it all looks right but there is no items except select all which is unchecked, when I check it still nothing. I have added a screen shot of the sheet.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI created a user form that provides a menu that allows users to perform advanced filtering. They can also scroll through the results freely. A problem is that a subsequent advanced filter selection does not always display the top row of filtered records, depending upon what the user has chosen to display prior to selecting the next set of filtered records.
How can I make the top row of filtered records always be displayed so that users will not overlook results of advanced filter operations?
I am trying to create a drop down list that when selected will display data in the 10 rows below and 4 columns, so a total of 40 cells. I would like the data to be based on the selection in the drop down list.
The data looks like this,
RequirementsQtyResourcesQty
Level 1 Sentinel10Level 1 Sentinel105
Level 2 Sentinel10Level 2 Sentinel167
Level 3 Sentinel10Level 3 Sentinel156
Level 1 Banga20Level 1 Banga401
Level 2 Banga20Level 2 Banga307
Level 4 Banga20Level 4 Banga0
i have 27 different combinations of the above list with up to 10 different rows. I have a label for each one, but i cannot get the rows below my drop down list to display the proper values base don the selection in the drop down list.
How do I go about using an advanced filter to filter a list of data e.g.
boat
boat
boat
car
car
truck
and have the filter extract only the boat entries to another worksheet, so on another worksheet I end up with
boat
boat
boat
I know how to create drop down list but I have a problem to Return different value then is displayed in Dropdown List. For example: On the workbook I have two wokssheets: one with empty cell and secound with list created for dropdown list.
On the secound woksheet I have created: column A namebox "Country" - cointains full name of countries (Great Britain, Australia ...) and column B namebox "CountryCode" - contains country codes only (GBR, AUS ...) When I click on dorp down list on first worksheet, I would like to my drop down list display me list with columnA "Country" but when I choose one of that it would returns me cell from columnB "Country Code".
I'm very new to the VB experience and am having trouble getting the choices in my list boxes to show up.

I have 8 items in a drop down list that all have the same variables that i've listed on a separate worksheet. I want to select one item from the drop list and then have only its variables appear. And then when I change the item from the drop down list all of the variables will update for that item - and have them displayed always in the same cell.
Attached is a sample file that has a Data entry sheet in which the user can paste in data. They can test & paste anywhere from 1 to 50 compounds at a time and run the list through 1 to 55 Assays. I want to generate a sheet (Plate & Assay Info) that would first display the list of compounds that were tested as well as the list of Assays that they were run through.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a project I'm working on that requires me to display information from various sheets on a dashboard. I have created a data validation dropdown list with part numbers. When one of these part numbers is selected from the drop down list I need the rest of the fields to populate with the appropriate information from various sheets in the workbook. How do I tell the dashboard to display this information per part number?

I have a workbook with 7 sheets, the drop down list operates correctly on all but one sheet, it used to work on all sheets. The arrow on the right of the selected cell dose not appear onthis particulr sheet. I have rebooted the PC and double checked the in-cell option. I have search the forum for similar problem and found the same problem but no remedy.

The filter works, but it is not applied. after the macro is run, I need to click "OK" on the filter for it to apply.
After posting a thread regarding sorting issues with multiple columns (under the thread heading "Bulk Sorting" I have conceded that unless I have a sort filter on every column I will not be able to keep data in respective rows when sorting.
My new plan of attack is to insert an empty row (it will be row 13) and apply auto filter across every column (not what I wanted visually but no other option).
Is there a way that I can do this at row 13 on an almost completed sheet? I may just be dumb but I can't stop the filter applying itself to row 1. If I select the whole of row 13 the auto filter or "right click - apply filter" options aren't available. If not I could start a fresh sheet. Is there a way to copy and paste a large amount of cells with different width columns into a new worksheet?
I have a spreadsheet that i am trying to filter. I have tried auto filter but
it is not working. What I have is a coumn with a part number and then 4
columns with other numbers. I am trying to pull out the part numbers that
have a 1 in any of the other 4 columns. below is a sample of my spreadsheet.
A number 1 may show up in column A for one part number and a number 1 may
show up in column C for another part number. I need to be able to put all of
the part numbers that have 1 in one of those columns together and so on. This
is for cycle counts for inventory so the 4 columns represent the week that
those part numbers need to be counted.

I ran into a problem with one of my macros the other day. It processes several data files given to us each week. This week, one of the files had Auto-Filter enabled. I had to manually disable auto-filter, and re-run my macro.
I tried recording this action, but wasn't able to. Is there a way to disable/enable Auto-Filter with VB?
if there is a way to have a running total of the auto filter feature
ie. you have 5 different values constantly being updated, can these totals be shown somewhere? maybe in another cell or on another worksheet
Sub Custom3()
Range("A785:BW1455").AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:="a"
Range("A785:BW1455").AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria2:Range ("N").value
End Sub
Is Field 2 referring to Column B? So if I want to filter on the 9th row heading (going from left to right), my Field: = 9?
In the example above, the 1st criteria revolves filtering on dates with the goal of exceeding a certain date (i.e. > 1/1/08). Is there a way to reference the cell (which is in another workbook which is already open) in the criteria?
I have a worksheet with 24k rows. Column C Contains the State, Column D contains the city.
Right now I am looking for accounts in chicago and surrounding cities..if I use Autofilter and just look for the city on the drop down..sometimes it isn't there..but if I choose the state (IL) and THEN look at the auto filtered cities..it's there.
Is there a limit to the number of unique values that an auto-filter can show?
I have a spreadsheet created in Excel 2003. All the non-entry cells are locked. When I protected the sheet I ticked the option for the auto filter to work. The problem is when I send the spreadsheet to my user - she uses Excel 2000. The auto-filter buttons do not work for her but they do work for me. Is there anyway round this? I need to have the sheet locked (apart from the entry cells) but I also need the auto filter function. I've attached the spreadsheet I'm talking about. The protection password is set to "password"
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to create a summary Calendar that would display all the names of the people who are off on a given day. I have a grid where I display each day of the month and a person in the group has their own column. If they are out of the office for any reason their name appears in that row. In the big Summary Calendar cell for each day of the month I want to look across all the people columns for that day and then display the names of the people who are not going to be in the office.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI tried using SUBTOTATL but no luck.
As always, I prefer without helper column(s) and/or VBA - but If not - I will, probably, have to compromise.
My data is as follows:
- Column Titles on row 9, columns A - CQ
- Data from Rows 10 - 46
- Totals on Row 47
I have set an Advanced Filter range of A9:CQ46. However, when I use the autofilter, it hides my totals row, row 47. That row is supposed to show the totals for the visible cells above it.
How can we program an auto filter a table linked to a cell. For example I have a table with 4 columns (A9:D20) and the 2nd row of the sheet is the filter item (A2, B2, C2 & D2).
Lets say column A has a list of months, column B has a list of names, column C is sales figure, column D is the customer. How can I filter let say for the total sales of Mr. X in the month of January.
I came across a code like this but I don't know how to apply it to my sheet. Of course this code is referring to a different table and links but I just need to learn how to apply this code to my sheet:
Activesheet.AutoFilterMode = False
Activesheet.Range("D2:D60").AutoFilter 1, Activesheet.Range("A2").value
