View 12 RepliesI have to sort data on 3 criteria
The data is:....
At this time I sort by HOURS then Seniority so the sort would look like this:........
Here is the problem, RN HILLER and JA DOE have the same hours and seniority. It is our policy that when 2 or more names and seniority match, they must be sorted by reverse order first letter of last name.
So this would be correct. H in Hiller comes before D in doe when reverse sorting.....
I am trying to write a formula to reverse data in a cell. Basically I am converting a number to hex then I want to take that hex string and reverse it. So it would be something like this my original number is 400001001 my hex number would be 17D787E9 because I am only allowing it to show 8 characters. I want to reverse the 17D787E9 to read 9E787D71.
My question is: How can I reverse that cell? I have searched google and this forum and can't seem to figure it out. I am sure I could do it in VB but I don't know any VB code.
I have Danish Office 2007.
1) Let's say I have 3 columns (horisontal) and many rows (vertical. Each row goes together, as the first column can be text that describes a transaction. The second column will be the amount of money and the third can be something else.
I know how to sort these by whichever column I want to. But the problem is every cell needs to be the same size. And I have merged 3 cells in the first column and only merged 2 cells in the last two colums.
So Excel tells me I cannot merge unless each cell is the same size.
Is there a solution here? I need the 3 cells in the first column, so I have enough room to describe the transaction. And to avoid wasting space, I need to only have the other two columns be the size of two merged cells each.
Example, though with the text in another column:
Picture of it
2) The other problem is that I would like a cell to display the number in red if below zero, green if above zero. I cannot do this. I know where to put in the format codes, but I don't know what to write.
At the same time, I need the cell to show the currency in Danish Kroner. So I need a format code that does this. Someone told me this:
[Blue]dk #.##0;[Red]dk #.##0;[Green]*dk #.##0
But that doesn't work, nor if the color is in danish. What do I do?
I have a spreadsheet with information in columns a-x. In column A there are part numbers like: RH630-34, PH630-343, 6-255, 16-01, 72500, There are may combinations of just numbers, and numbers first letters second, and letter first number second.
All usually seperated by a hyphen. The entire spreadsheet will be sorted by Column A first.
I need to sort them so the order would be numbers first and combo with number letters next. finish product: 6-255, 16-01, 72500, PH630-343, RH630-34. Is this possible? I have seen other posts and suggesting putting spaces before the numbers. That seems to work but in the case of 6-138 and 6-1038 the 6-1038 is first
For the below formula is it possible to replace the B's (column location) with a cell Say Z146 which contains the letter B (or a number if thats easier and someone can tell me the numbers for each column).
When the formula is dragged into the next cell (down) it takes its column reference from Z147 and then my life becomes so much easier.
=IF(INDEX('Overs-Unders'!B:B,MATCH($C145,'Overs-Unders'!$A:$A,0))"",INDEX('Overs-Unders'!B:B,MATCH($C145,'Overs-Unders'!$A:$A,0)),"")
Is it possible to have a formula for cells B1 to B10 in order to reverse the order of cell A1:A10 as you can see below.

I have attached an Excel spreadsheet and I will apologize now if I lose you. This spreadsheet contains two entries:
"SwapIt" works great but will only reverse the most current date entry and list it first in the cell and the remaining date entries will remain in oldest to latest dates.
"ReverseDates" works great but errors out with <subscript out of range> when a manual date is entered in the notes (see system created format).
System created format; the entries within a cell will always be - MM/DD/YYYY_tt:tt:tt_AM(PM)_username (this varies) followed by the notes entered by user. So in a nutshell, the system will generate all the following but from oldest dates to latest dates toward the bottom of the cell. I would like to achieve the reverse order, latest entries to oldest entries.
I'd like to take the value from one cel, and reverse the digit order in another cell. Example cell c11 value is 1234, I want to display that value in cell c12 as 4321. Is there a way to do this?

I've put together a small example of what I'm after. In cell F9 is the MAX of cells F2:F7. In cell H3 I then want a formula that will find the MAX of F2:F7 and return the text five rows to the left of that cell. In this example it would be Fred.
The second part of this question is how could I get it to display if more than one person had the same total....
All of the information is provided in one cell, which I can not change. If possible I would like to pull the names from the middle only (example: cell d11 only give me Adam Diaz and so on). Once I have pulled out the name, I would to reverse the name (example: Diaz Adam).

I am working with a column which always displays the cell contents with oldest notes by date first, then the newest note last. I would like to have the contents from a cell reversed with the newest user input by date on top which will simply when reading. Here is an example of a cell. The string always starts with (MM/DD/YYYY TT:TT:TT AM, then user name).

If I have the following text string in a cell "abc123.xyz" how do I reverse the contents i.e. "zyx.321cba"?

I am using Excel 2003. Looking for a way to find out whether some data I want to delete in a sheet is used by a formula somewhere else within the file. Is there a way to check that? In other words, I have the number 500 in A1, and I want to delete it, but I don't know whether it will impact a calculation on another sheet that involves that value in A1.

The next part I cannot figure out -
after the cell have been highlighted once, and properly colored with an x, how can I get it to delete the fill and clear the x on the next click.
Dim x As Long

When I type a single lower case letter into a cell, what formula or conditional formatting should I use to always convert it to a capital letter automatically?

I've done the following:

Here is what I am trying to do with no luck so far.
If I type RS23U1R109000 in a cell A1, I want B1 to read the 5th letter or
number and fill B1 with E86.
Example
A1= RS23U1R109000 B1=E86
A1= RS23V1R109000 B1=E87
A1= RS23R1R109000 B1=E84
As you can see in my example, the 5th letter could be U,V,R or whatever, but
I need cell B1 to read that letter and populate B1 with E86, E87, E84 or
whatever.
I have to loop through a range in A, and if the letter "C" or the number "9" appears in the cell anywhere (it won't be a whole cell value) then I need column B to show "C".

Is there a way to lookup the first letter of a word in the cell. I am trying to keep my sheet as small as possible for emailing. It would help to narrow down the possible lookup combinations. For example I only need to know if it starts with T, P, or V. I don't need to know the rest of the word. eg TMO, TAEFA, P1284, VTL3D etc.
