Organizing Data In Spreadsheet?
Nov 26, 2013
I have a spreadsheet converted from pdf having more than 30 Columns .for Example( name, address, tel. website , products etc).
Problem is that data is not consistent in all columns.Some have full range(all 30+ columns having data) and in some not( only some columns having data )
I want to organize data as per headers and leave cell blanks or fill in (N/A) where data is not available for that field. How can I correctly populate it.I need data as per headers in rows.
Here i am dealing with 2k rows with 30+ columns.

I'm looking for a opinion on what might be the best way to organize some data for sorting later.
I work for a company and we have a lot of equipment. I have a spreadsheet with each piece of equipment in a row. Column A has the equipment name with all the following columns having info about the equipment. One example would be voltage, some equipment runs at 120v and some runs at 208v, some runs either or and some runs at other odd ball voltages, although this is rare. I am trying to determine what the best way to enter data like this would be. Would I be better off entering one column labeled voltage and filling in the voltage, but this becomes problematic when a piece of equipment can run multiple voltages. The other though is to do multiple columns, one labeled 120v, one 208v, one 480v or whatever and go from there. Than put a "X" or Yes or something in the columns that apply.
I have this same scenario for multiple variables like connectors, hardware accessories and things like that. I am trying to think this through before entering all my data of what could be the negative effects of this.
Would it be possible/make sense to do a radio box?
My end result is hopefully to be able to say I want a piece of equipment that meets multiple scenarios like runs 120v, this accessory and this connector. Ideally setting up some sort of easy sort method in my column headers.

I'm setting up a type of form in excel where I have some validated drop down lists and I'm trying to use a macro that will, upon a button click, take the data from the drop down lists that are entered into the boxes, and organize them into a chart on a different sheet of the document. This would be the form with some drop down lists.

I have a bar chart that monitors month over month activity. I use Layout 5, which allows for the numbers data to neatly be organized in a table below the bar chart. However, i recently started using the data on a secondary axis to accurately reflect trend lines. It works great, but now the data table below displays redundant information. see attachment.
example.jpg
I just want that data in the data table to be displayed once, completely leaving of the axis legend.

I make our employee schedule at work, and so in Excel I have eight sheets for one workbook. (Employee schedule, then each day of the week) On each day is a table separating the shifts. Morning, Split and Night.
I was wondering if there was a way for Excel to look at the schedule sheet, and then automatically place each employee and their shift on the following day sheets. (example: Joe has 2-10 on Monday, 10-6 on Thursday and Friday) So the Excel puts Joe underneath Split 2-10 for Monday, and Morning 10-6 on Thursday and Friday.

I have attached a file that I need a little guidance on. The list of information on the left needs to be organized and put in the appropriate tables on the right. Each row represents one person and I need to know how many people from the list fall into each category. For example: The first row has a gender of "1" and the age is "46" and the status is "1". Therefore, this person falls into the category associated with "K11", I filled it in already. My list will vary in length from 20 rows to 20,000. I am not sure how to go about this and have been frustrated by failed attempts.

I have a list of 35k files and the number of files keep changing every week. At the end of the month I manually have to sort the files i.e move files to the respective folders, delete them or take no action. This takes me an entire day. There are useless files which needs to be deleted.

The format is as follows. File name is the file which I intend to move, File path is the current file path, New path is the path where I want the file to be moved, Action (Move, Do nothing, Delete) is the action i intend to take on the file.

I have two spreadsheets, one gives me the beginning and end of civil twilight as a measure of day vs. night. The spreadsheet has Date/Time in the first column, and the value 45 in the 2nd column when it is night. The second spreadsheet has also 2 columns with date/time and body temperatures of a squirrel. I want to get basic statistics (mean and standard deviation) of the squirrel's nocturnal body temperature, that is for times when it is night (value 45). The tricky part is that Date/Time of both spreadsheets are different. The procedure has to recognize that the date/time of body temperature lies between the beginning and end of the value 45 blocks of the first spreadsheet.

I have a question on how to organize cells from lead sheets that I load inside excel, when it loads it shows as is:
Name, Last, Address, City, State, Zip, Phone #
I need it to be organized so when I print they read:
Name
Address
City, State
Phone#
Instead Of them All together in a landscape view.

Often I need to add data from one spreadsheet to the appropriate places on another spreadsheet. For example:
Sheet A has 10,000 records with these fields: id#, name, address, place of employment.
Sheet B has 5,000 records these fields: id#, GPA, college major, type of degree.
Some of the records in B contain information for the same id#'s as sheet A. I want to add this information together so that a Sheet C will have these fields: id#, name, address, place of employment, GPA, college major, type of degree.

I'm a novice in VB and can't work out how to solve the following problem:
I have imported NMEA-data in text format from a GPS into Excel. This data is acquired in real-time at 10Hz, which borders what the GPS in capable of calculating. As a result the data isn't quite reliable enough - there are strings missing and some lines have been skipped by the GPS. This is a typical example of what sometimes happens: ...

I am working on this spreadsheet that has a lot of information that will only get bigger as time goes on. I would like to organize the contents of one column into separate spreadsheets. So if I have "stacking" in one cell of that column, the whole row associated with that cell will go to a new spreadsheet labeled "stacking".
I have attached the sheet. I would like column D (Type_Code) to be organized by the words in that column. So I would have 5 or so worksheets labeled stacking, cartoner, wheel, inspection, etc. The data here is input by a machine.

Wondering if there is an easy way to compare 2 spreadsheets that should have identical data on them? The first spreadsheet (Before) has the output data from 'before' a code fix was applied. The second spreadsheet (After) has the output data from 'after' a code fix was applied. The spreadsheets have 7 columns of data and almost 500 rows.
I've already copied the data from the source datasets provided by my IT folks into Notepad (.txt) files and then used Excel to open them as fixed width spreadsheets. I have 1 workbook with 1 spreadsheet with 'before' data. And, I have 1 workbook with 1 spreadsheet 'after' data. And, I have another workbook that contains both worksheets. So, I'm ready to go whenever I get hints of what to do next. :-)
I need to be able to show my client that we did not impact the data with the code fix that was applied. I want to be able to show my client contacts (business folks) an end result via Excel that confirms that I actually compared the 2 sheets and there were no differences. In other words....I can't just show them a formula with '0' as it end result (even tho that's basically what I'm trying to prove).

I need to write a macro that will import data contained in another spreadsheet, but am unsure how to do this. I have several (about 15) spreadsheets that contain data. I need to import key bits of this data into one central spreadsheet that will be used for reporting purposes. I only need 2 cells worth (values) from each source spreadsheet, to be pasted into the destination spreadsheet, into designated cells.
The source spreadsheets are usually closed down and kept on a file server, which my PC has access to. Ideally I want to activate this macro with a control button - i.e. I press the button once and the macro goes off and collects/updates each field with the latest data stored in each of the source spreadsheets.

I want to manipulate team statistics and having a bit of trouble trying to figure out how to do it. I am relatively new to excel and am using Excel 2007.
I have attached the excel file for your reference (the same file).
What I need to do is first find out the team number using the table on first sheet named "Teams". User will enter team name on call B4 of sheet "Team entry" then in cell C4 there should be a formula to find the team number (is beside name on sheet "Teams) and displays it (on C4). Then on cell D4 of the same sheet "Team entry" there should be a formula that displays cell A1 (shows a statistic for that team) of the team sheet. Each team has its own stat sheet named by its team number (easier for me to keep track). So basically D4 should show cell A1 of the sheet that shows stats of the team entered. In addition cell E4 of "Team entry" should display stat2 (of the sheet "stat2")for the team entered.

I have a parent spreadsheet with raw data(with errors) and a child spreadsheet without errors. I want to merge the child into parent. (:{). I am thinking of comparing multiple columns from each sheet to ensure maximum accuracy. And when those columns match up we paste the corrected column data from child sheet to parent one.

I have one source spreadsheet, where are columns NAME, DATE. I read these data by ADO to other spreadsheet, where I can change/delete data and then run macro for update data in source spreadsheet. The problem: In source spreadsheet is column "NAME" and column "DATE", with values e.g. "Joseph"; 1.1.1980. I read this data to other spreadsheet, then I delete in it value 1.1.1980. When I run macro Update, it messages error.
Sub UpdateItem
...
.Fields.Item(1).value = activecell 'activecell value = "Joseph"
If Not isempty(activecell.offset(0,1)) Then
.Fields.Item(2).value = activecell.offset(0,1).value
Else
.Fields.Item(2).value = "" 'I tried Empty and 0 too but when I read data again then, it displays 0.1.1900, nothing works
End If
...
End Sub
It seems that in source spreadsheet has data in column "Date" format Date and when I try to update data in format String ("") in source spreadsheet by Update macro, it messages error. When I used
.Fields.Item(2).Value = Empty
' or
.Fields.Item(2).Value = 0
after rereading data it displays 0.1.1900 What I want to get is that if the cell with date (in other spreadsheet) is empty, the cell in column Date in source spreadsheet after updating will be blank (contains no values).

I'm wondering if I can use external data in an excel spreadsheet without having to import all the data. I basically need a persistent connection with the external data and I want the excel spreadsheet to get the item descriptions by using the item number as the user types in the item number. Writing out the descriptions is killing me and I have all my products in an excel spreadsheet already. I really need someway to link two separate excel files together. One with data and one with user input that searches that data as I type in the item number.

I have got a spreadsheet with many rows of data. One row is product name and the other is date written. Now I want to calculate how long these entries have been on the log. So lets say I have 10 entries called Pension all with different dates and 10 entries called ISA with different dates. So first I need it to look for all the proucts called "Pension" and then to work out how many are 0-3 weeks old and so on. So i want it to look like this but a formula to work it out for me and to update it automatically.
0-3 Weeks 4-6 Weeks 7-9 Weeks 10 Weeks +
Pension 4 3 3 1
ISA 3 4 1 2
(this does not display very well here but I hope you understand what I mean)
I am using Excel 2003 and I dont think it as a WEEKS function so I will do it in days and then devide by 7.
I know that to look for the product i use
=COUNTIF(H:H,"Pension")
The H:H is because the product is on colum H on my spreadsheet
I know to find the date it is
=TODAY()
So to work out something 3 weeks old it would be
=TODAY()-21

I have been putting together a database of town owned properties. I have about 190 rows with well over 20 columns. Sometimes I need to sort the data in order to find something. However sometimes after sorting the data and not thinking of anything of it, I will open up the file later that day or the next day and I find that most of, or sections of my data are all jumbled up. I then have to re-enter the data to get it to where it should be. I am using Excel 2003.

I created a 10 spreadsheets for 10 companies that include 25 columns of info each and multiple tabs.
I need to create a master spreadsheet, which contains info from all 10 companies but only 10 of the columns are necessary. I want to ensure that if a change is made in the master spreadsheet in one of the columns for company "A", that change is reflected in their personal spreadsheet as well, pretty much syncing info typed in one worksheet to a spot in another.
Is that possible?
