I have a sheet with about 20000 rows consisting of hundreds of names which
occur randomly.After each name is a date of the type 29-Jan-06.The dates are in ascending order.I wish to print in a third column how long it is in days since that name appeared previously in the list,if it never appeared before this will be zero.
Is there a function that allows you to read column A for an ID (these may or may not include letters/numbers/"?", are non-sequential and are of variable lengths) and, if it is the first time that it has seen an ID column B will read "sample_1_arm_1", if its the second time it has seen an id it will read "sample_2_arm_1", etc? An example of what I am trying to do on a much larger scale:
id
event_name
C83-858
sample_1_arm_1

I have a spreadsheet with only entries in column A - 154 cells. Nothing in other columns. When I try to print, it says it'll be 4 sheets long...

How can I get it to print in a snake-like fashion so all on one page?
I have a long list of names in Column A sorted alphabetcially. I dont know how long the list is.
I wish to find the start and end row numbers of names that begin with a specific letter, for example if the letter is B I want the first row number that starts with B and the row number that ends with B. Assuming the letter I want to use is in C1, here is what I came up with:
I wanted to hide/remove the already selected options in a dependent drop down list so that the next time i am left with only the remaining options.
View 7 Replies View Relatedwith printing a long userform? Unfortunately, the me.printform does not print out the whole form. It gets cut off because my form is too long and slightly too wide. I also tried to do a print screen, but unfortunately, because my form is too long, it will only do a snapshot of a portion of the form. In my case, on the bottom as that is where I have placed my command button.
Does anyone know how to bring the whole form out to excel or word? I don't mind doing that as long as I can print out the whole form?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a list of email aliases for my company, approx 10,000 entries, mapping the alias to an email address. Two columns, one the alias firstname.surname, second column being the full email address. I have a second list, a subset of these aliases, approx 1200 of them, that are users of a particular web app. All i have in this list though, is the firstname.surname bit.
What I need to do is compare the lists, and where the aliases match I need to pull out the corresponding full email address from the long list, so I have 1200 aliases in the shorter list, with the full email address mapped to it. Is this possible in excel? i've tried all sorts of LOOKUP functions, and MATCH functions, but none seem to work. MATCH will give me the corresponding row number in the long list, but then it seems to offset itself every row it goes down, so the values are 1 out for every row. First row is good, second row -1, third row -3, fourth row -4 etc.
I don't want to have to manually go through 1200 entries and match them against a 10,000-entry list. Hopefully there's a quick way in excel to filter the long list down to the entries specified in the short list?
I am trying to sort a fairly long list of tasks into a custom calendar order. I have created the custom list as Sept, Oct, Nov, Dec, Jan etc through to Aug, with one additional heading of "Recurring". The list won't seem to sort by the column where these headings occur. See attachment.

- In column A, I have list of items that take up 700 cells (i.e. the text is in cells A1, A2... A700).
- I have applied conditional formatting to these 700 cells, so some of them are now highlight YELLOW based on a criteria (i.e. cells A3, A14, A422, A654 are yellow)

how to add alternating cells when all are numbers, e.g. B8 to KW8 are all numbers and I want to add B8, D8, F8, etc. until KV8 and then separately add C8, E8, G8, etc until KW8. Is there a more efficient way to do this than =sum(b8,D8, etc)? I also need to do the same with =counta(b8, d8, etc).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to create a new sheet, and pull all the rows (14 columns each) from another sheet in the document that meet a certain criteria. Fortunately, that criteria is all in one column; unfortunately, out of about 30 different entries in that column, I need it to pull 7 of them, 4 of them have been input 2 or 3 different ways.
I know I can go through the list of 900+ by hand and copy the rows, but there has to be an easier way right? Here is the list of all the spellings of the ones I need to pull..

I would think this has been done, but I've searched the web and this forum without success.
I've done some looking around in the object browser and in the forum, but i wasn't able to find the answer to this question:
I've got a combobox (dropdown list) in a userform which i use to run macros. soft of them are fairly long (2-3seconds), and during that time the dropdown list remains visible.... is there a way to force hide it?
I'm doing the website for my company and things have to be entered into the site via spreadsheets. I have a list of numbers
e.g. 3652, 2845, 50925, 4809, 18392
that need to have the spaces removed in order for them to work.
e.g. 3652,2845,50925,4809,18392
There are over 500 cells with multiple numbers in each, so I don't want to do it one at a time, and rightly so, because Excel keeps changing the format and giving me something like
3.6*10^30 and loses all my commas.
Is there an easier way?
I have a list full of different IDs with different version numbers (This format: AKH123.1).
I'm trying to clean the list - removing all duplicate IDs but leaving only the largest version number.
I managed to remove the last digit using LEN/VLOOKUP and removing duplicates, but leaving only the largest version number is too tricky for me. I've thought about trying something with LARGE but can't wrap my mind around it.
My thought process went like this: I want to find all occurrences of "AKH123" and return the largest one.
The list contains about 8000 entries and this would save en enormous amount of work.
Here is a tiny portion of the list:
AKH450.1
AKH451.1
AKH451.3
AKH451.4
AKH451.5
AKH451.6
AKH451.7
AKH451.8
AKH452.1
AKH453.3
AKH454.1
AKH455.1

View 2 Replies View RelatedI find (what look like) two extra toolbars have appeared at the top (below the standard and formatting toolbars) and to the left of my worksheet.
They have lines, dots and little boxes with an x or - in them, depending if you click on them or not. The +/- box function seems to be to make columns appear and disappear.
How did I turn this function on and more importantly, how do I turn it off?
I am trying to run an SQL query to the worksheet of the workbook opened. This is worth noting, that this code is being called multiple times. Suppose if I have around 100 items in a listview, any item I will check or uncheck, this query will be fired. I tried selecting the five items, and the following code ran five times, and the excel ghost instance appeared.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a long column of numbers that I want to apply a single percentage to all the numbers in each column. How do I do that?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an excel sheet that I am importing to my network software. One of the columns lists telephone numbers, but they are as follows: aaa-bbbb
I need a way to enter an area code (the same area code) for all of the numbers in the column without manually entering them (the program I am importing this list to will not work without 9-digit telephone numbers).
I have a data range with just under 100,000 lines by about 60 columns. In one of the final columns I used the formula =IF(COUNTIF($A$2:A2,A2)=1,1,0) in order to set a flag the first time that each unique value in Column A appears. (I know about the remove duplicates function but the data was sorted in a certain order and I needed information specifically from the first row in which each unique value appears.) The formula works - it's not very quick, but it works.
The issue I'm encountering though is that now I want to remove that formula so it doesn't keep recalculating and every technique I use either takes forever or stalls Excel entirely. I've seen the same issue in two different spreadsheets where I used the same technique. Techniques I've tried: selecting and deleting the entire column, copying and pasting values over the formula, Selecting all the cells and pressing delete, copying and pasting an empty cell over them, Selecting and cutting and pasting the cells to another workbook. I've done these while disabling automatic recalculation and even turning off Data Filtering. I just can't understand why a simple delete operation should take so long, it shouldn't matter what is in the cell because all I want to do is delete it.
I am trying to write the following statement in a cell in excel lets say O3 so I can drag it down to the rest of the column, I was trying to see if there was a previous posting about this but I didn't find it. the if statement goes like this:
=IF(M3=Sheet3!$B$2,Sheet3!$C$2,IF(Sheet1!M3=Sheet3!$B$3,Sheet3!$C$3,IF(M3=Sheet3!$B$3,Sheet3!$C$3,....until it reaches to if(Sheet3!$B$20,Sheet3!$C$20,"PENDING"))
Is there a way I can do this I know probably through a VBA but I have no idea how to set it up.
An Excel file is e-mailed to my company for all the credit card transactions in a given day. Because we manage many stores and each store is a different legal entity and a different fiscal year ending, I need my macro to sort the information and separate the transaction by store and by fiscal year end. I just hit my first block.
I need to open a workbook off the server to grab information for a vlookup formula. I can get the workbook open, but I can't get back to the original workbook or find a way to reactivate it. Because the macro is going to be saved in the "personal" workbook, I can't use the "thisworkbook.activate" code. Also the workbook name and tab name that is emailed to me will always be different so I can't use other solutions that I've seen posted.
Here is what I think I want to do (however there may be a better way to get to the end result).
Macro 1:
Unhide all worksheets however, first list only the worksheets that are visible.
Macro 2:
I want to be able to hide all worksheets except those in the above list.
My intent would be to have these in the personal file so I could run either process on any file I have open so I think I would need to insert a tab for the list when unhiding & remove the tab after hiding.
I have found many strings unhiding all & hiding all except a named sheet... but can't find anything on the above?
I have a set of four sheets that each act as a wall planner type of calendar (one for each team of staff) all in one workbook. I have a sheet that acts as a key where cells on the key display different types of holidays e.g. Annual Leave, Unpaid Leave etc. Normally the user would select the cells where they wish to take the time off against their name and go to the "key" sheet, copy relevant cell and go back to their team sheet and paste. I want to put all this into a macro to be used on a customised button on the menu bar.
I am able to do this with one sheet ( I simply put in the code the name of the sheet that I previously selected) but I don't know how with four sheets. How do I say go back to the sheet I previously selected.
