I have been sent a spreadsheet with data in it that is from a Pivot table.
The headings look like the ones in the Pivot table the only difference is
there are no drop down arrows to show/hide items
I cant click and drag fields to swap them.
So it looks like a Pivot but I cant manipulate it.
From the Excel Toolbar - Data/Validation - I'm successfully using a validation list [drop down arrow] to be able to choose from a list and have whatever value I choose entered into the cell. So far so good. Everything working fine.
Here's the thing though, the list I'm referencing is a column with 50 rows. Sometimes there are many items in the column - up to 50, and sometimes only 3 items depending on other variables in the spreadsheet.
Because the list is referencing the entire 50 rows in the column (only way I know how to do it), during times when the column has only 3 items (3 rows), the drop down still shows a bunch of blank spaces (like 47 of them - tons of white space with a scroll bar window that runs down beyond where one can see), which is awkward (strange looking).
How do I program the validation list to only show as many cells within a range that have actual values within the cell, or where <> "" ? Or, in other words, to leave all blank spaces found in the list = NOT SHOWN.
Is it possible to change those AutoFilter drop-down arrows that are active? As it is now they are hard to spot which is in use.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI do a weekly report for my employer. We have our tabs conditionally formatted. We then insert the corresponding arrows to show a trend to the weekly variance. After the week is up I will delete a column and add a column to the end (making it a trended view) and move the arrows by selecting and dragging all of them into its respected week. I then go on to delete several arrows throughout the worksheet. For some reason my file continues to grow in size however I am only keeping a 12 week trend. The arrows are not deleting properly and are sitting in the background, where I cannot see them. I know this bc I did "find & Select" and chose selection pane. I was wondering how I can resolve this problem or maybe delete just certain columns of arrows (objects)? I had 61,000 arrows and shouldn't have more than a couple 1,000.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI need to analyse trends between a range of cells. The idea is to display an image of a triangle pointing up if the percentage between the current month and the previous is bigger, a triangle pointing down if the percentage has decreased or a rectangle if both months are the same. I've tried to build a userform to ask the user to input the range and then analyze the data...with no luck at all.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have created this Excel schedule that is attached. The point of the schedule is to organize Jobs and Crew members. I have VBA code in, so when I calculate how long the job should take, the arrows next to the job will automatically extend. (This should all make sense if you take a look at the attachment.) The only problem is that my arrows do not extend the correct distance. In the attached file I have scheduled "James Lorenz" to do a job starting on tuesday, towards the bottom of the page I did my calculation that figures he should be on that job for 9.5 days. I would like the Arrow next to James' job to extend 9.5 days on the calender instead of 9.5 centimeters or whatever it is doing now.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMorning all. I'm trying to use VBA to generate autoshape arrows to track changes in values.
Something allong the lines of Column B (Jans data) C (Febs Data) E (autoshape arrow, green up, for improvement, or red downwards for a worsening).
The problem I'm having is postioning my autoshapes. The only way I can do it at present is to keep all columns and rows a standard width, and position using multiples of those.
Is there anyway to set the autoshape to the cell height and width, and position it within the boundries of the cell? This way I don't have to worry about rewiting my code every time I change a cell width?
I have a table A-AP 4-499 (row 4 being the column headers and 5 being the first row of data).
I'd like to remove some of the filter drop-down arrows as they aren't needed for some column headers and they also look unsightly.
This code works to remove all of the arrows:
Sub HideArrows()
Dim c As Range
Dim i As Integer
i = Cells(1, 1).End(xlToRight).Column
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each c In Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(1, i))
c.AutoFilter Field:=c.Column, visibledropdown:=False
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
However, I want to only remove arrows in the following column headers: A, G, I, J, K, M, N, O, P. I want to keep the rest.
I found this code for hiding an autofilter arrow for column 2. I would also like to hide the arrows for columns 35 through 50. Does anybody know how to do that? Thanks.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
'hides all arrows except column 2
Dim c As Range
Dim i As Integer
i = Cells(1, 1).End(xlToRight).Column
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For Each c In Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(1, i))
If c.Column 25 Then
c.AutoFilter Field:=c.Column, _
Visibledropdown:=False
End If
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Tables and filters. I was using the following code to check for filters on a sheet of data and then show all data.

I am trying to make different colour arrows appear based on a set criteria, I am having issues with the hide/show amber part, it doesn't seem to be doing the "AND" part.
'Hide/Shows Green'
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Range("A1").Value >= 0 Then
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Arrow1").Visible = False
Else
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Arrow1").Visible = True
End If
'Hide/show Red'
If Range("A1").Value = 0 And Range("A1").Value
The sheet was working fine, then all of a sudden (i dont know what i have done) the up and down arrows (on my kayboard) wont work when the sheet is protected, when i unprotect the sheet they work fine, i can use left and right. i have checked the scroll lock isnt pressed/illuminated on my keyboard.
I'm trying to create a VBA macro that will compare two worksheets. If an item has "moved" then I want to draw an arrow on the new worksheet of where (the cell range) it was on the previous worksheet, to where it is now. Using Record Macro, I've noticed the coding looks like: ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddLine(276#, 60.75, 309.75, 60.75).Select
How do I make sense of these numerical values? Is there a way to input cell ranges? Is there anything besides drawing arrows I can represent this phyiscally? (as opposed to with values)
I am looking to show Month Wise Trend Up/Down/Nuetral Arrows for the Achievement % for each month.
I want to show the Increase or Decrease trend of the % in the next month.
I have Baseline figures (count) and i have count of Mar, Apr, May months. (Column A)
I have calculated the Achievement % by 100%-(Actual/Target) (Column D, G, J for Mar, Apr, May Months)
I want to show the Increase or Decrease Trend Up/Down/Nuetral buttons either by the Achievement % or by the Total Incidents Each month compared to the Baseline Figures (Column A).
I tried to use Icons Set in Conditional Formatting but i was not able to do that.
Sample file attached : Sample.xlsx
I'm attempting something that I feel should be relatively easy using the conditional formatting icon sets (3 arrows coloured)
I have values in columns A and B. I simply want to compare the value in column B against that in A, and format column B accordingly
B > A (green arrow)
B = A (amber arrow)
B < A (red arrow)
The icon set rules only allow for > or >= conditions, and I can't get the desired results using the rules.

I have a table with a filter applied. I don't want all of the column headers to be filtered because the data in those column is not suitable filter criteria. Is there anyway I can remove the individual arrows on the right hand side of the cells in question?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have 2 separate pivots running off 2 separate data sources. The filters used for each or fairly similar (bar one entry).
Is there a way to have one filter that filters the information in both pivots even though they are not based on the same data source?
Also, with the filter that is slightly different; in one table, I have an option that shows (this is just an example) 'retail and end user' yet, in the other table these are two separate options.
I am working on an excel sheet (2007) with about 8 pivots from the same data (huge db). The 8 pivots take a different cuts of data. One filter element is same across all pivots. (For instance let us say that filter is City names: with 10 different city values in it- NY, London, Chicago etc)
What I would like to do is have a system where I just chose NY in one place and all the 8 pivots should use NY as one of the filters and refreash the data accordingly.
What I am doing now is I got to each pivot, choose NY first and then refreash all for the data.
I am looking for a way to combine three pivot tables in to one. Basically, one sales rep will have data for the current month, the year to date, and the total year. I have to compile this data to one sheet, for 30 sales managers! The problem with running the pivot three times (once for monthly, year to date, and yearly) is that brands that aren't sold in the month are then left off the table, which leads to a mess that it takes far too long to clean up. I hope I've made this clear, but please check the attachments for a better idea of what I'm looking to do...

how not to show blanks in a pivot table but I do actually want to show them, however they are currently showing as '0' which is misleading to my audience; also I have cells will '*' which I also want to show in the pivot but again these show as '0' - the format of the cells in the raw data in 'number' however I have tried changing this to 'general' or 'text' but to no avail when refreshing the pivot table.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have 3 sheets in my workbook, DataA, DataB, and DataC
Data A contains:
ID_customer

Data C contains
ID_customer
and other 4 different variables
Request: I need to analyses the relationship between the variables using a Pivot table.
My thoughts so far: I think that I need to combine all the information onto one sheet first and then use the pivot table function, but its currently unable to combine onto one sheet, due to Id_ customer numbers appearing several times in DataB and DataC (and not always the same number of times in both), I need to retain all the information from DataB and DataC

I have a ton of data coming into excel. I'm making a Pivot table of this.
From this tables everything goes to another sheet for a specific month. Right now January only.
The data will contain several of months later on in the future.
Where I can set the pivot to see the february date and insert into the right cells?
Excel01-file contains the Pivot table setup.
Excel02-file is the place where the pivot should insert the data specific to each month taken out from the data file in Excel03_data-file.
I have a spreadsheet with a number of sheets in it for our sales team to record orders received and pending; the first sheet contains pivots which relate to the other sheets (a sheet for each financial quarter) (i.e. one pivot for sheet 2, one pivot for sheet 3 etc)
Is there a macro which will allow me to update all of the pivots when the workbook is opened? Or, even better, one where they will be updated when the first sheet is accessed?
The only one I have found when searching is:
I have a monthly sales report with x amount of customers in a number of countries with an ABCDE mark. I have made a pivot table with ABCDE marks in rows and countries in Columns.
I have then grouped the countries into regions. Looks something like this: [URL]
If you can't see it look here: [URL]
Now my issue is that I have to compare many months of this kind of data to see movement. What I wanted to do was to display these changes but how do I do this without having to create 10 different pivot tables, and is there a way I can save the country groupings so I don't have to manually group the countries for every pivot table?
I have one single data source and need to create multiple piot tables with it.
But when I group dates for example, this applies to all Pivot Tables that share the same pivot cache.
Is there a quick way (VBA preferred) to duplicate an existing pivot table with a new pivot cache?
I know about the technique to open a new workbook and copy it there and back again, but it is really annoying.
