Limit Cell Entry To Two Decimal Places Or Whole Number?
May 29, 2014content from form is captured via formulas to a CIMLoad format on another tab
Users keep entering four to six decimal places in weight value
I need to limit the cell to either whole numbers, or a maximum of 2 decimal places
The cell is formatted to two decimal places, but when you activate the cell it shows the full value they entered, and so does my CIMLoad
How to I limit the value in this cell to whole numbers or numbers with a maximum of two decimal places?
Using Data Validation To Limit Entry Of Number Of Characters In A Cell
Jan 24, 2014When you want to use Data Validation to limit the entry of the number of characters to a cell does this apply only to the cell that you are entering the characters or can it also apply to a cell that contains a LEN(A1) formula, for instance? Also,does the Data Validation limitation function includes spaces as well? Will the message appear while you are entering the characters (when it has reached the limit) or will it wait until you have hit Enter?

Jul 7, 2009i have an address that is all in one cell displayed like
101 hampton Court, Hampton heath, Hampton Town, Hamptonshire, HA01 1AS
but i need to have it split in to individual cells so
Cell A1 would be 101 hampton court
B2 Hampton Heath
C2 Hampton Town
D3 Hamptonshire
E5 HA01 1AS
each part of the address is split by a comma, so i have tried to use that as a identifier as to where that part of the address is, but failed on that, i can separate out the first part and the post code with a find and replace but not the middle.
also i need it to work backwards ie
it finds the post code first,
then the county
then the town
as those 3 are always the last 3 parts, but the address could only have 1 line of addres beofre the town or 3, and it would get messed up as all the post codes, county ans town needs to be in their respective columns
Using A Single Cell For Data Entry
Jun 24, 2009Basicaly what I am trying to accomplish is the use of a single cell to enter the values 1 thru 60, so starting at e2 for instance, if I enter the number 1 then cell f2 will populate with a 1, if I were to enter the number 18 then the cell w2 would populate with an 18. So the range of cells that need to populate in this example would be (f2:BM2) for row 2. Furthermore if I were to enter a -1 or a -18 in cell e2 then those numbers would be eliminated from the appropriate cells on row 2. The next 299 rows would need to perform the same way for a total of 300 user input rows.
The way that I'm imagining e2 would behave in the example would be...type a 1 then enter....18 then enter....31 then enter and so on. Columns f thru bm would locked and unselectable....so a tab should send me back to a3.
Reasoning.... this is a simple scoring system based on 60 codes and data integrity is very important and I want to eliminate as much human error as possible. I will be setting autofilters and such later on.
I am attaching a screencapture as well.

Pop Up Calendar In Userform - Need To Limit Entry
Sep 26, 2011I have a userform with two pop up calendars (calendar1 and calendar2). Calendar1 is the "start date" and must be a Monday. I have this portion working fine. If they select a date other than a Monday an alert message will pop up notifying the user a Monday must be selected. I need to limit the user to a date selection in calendar2 to be a minimum of three years out from Calendar1. I would like an alert message to pop up in Calendar2 should the user select a date inside of my three year minimum. Am I even in the ballpark with the following:
If Trim(Calendar2.Value) < (Calendar1.Value + "not sure here") Then
Calendar2.SetFocus
MsgBox "Select End Date 3 Years Out From Start date", vbExclamation

Cumulative Total With Single Data Entry
Aug 27, 2009I would like to be able to enter a number in a single column, and then Excel adds this number to a total column each time it is updated.
This is for entering via a PDA, so I need a simple entry method, ie to enter a figure, and then keep a running total every time a new figure is entered. This would only use the one column and overwrite the number each time, rather than adding up individual columns.
The attachment shows the items listed in column A, column C3 - C10 would be where I would like the number of items entered, and as I go round, I would just update the last figure. I would like the figures from C3 - C10 to be added to the Total column D3 - D10 for each item.

Excel 2007 :: VLookup Cell Limit?

Limit Cell Entries Text Length
Aug 23, 2007I think it's an easy one but for the life of me I can't get around it. ccasionally while re-typing data in fields with the intention of saving-as a new file, an error message appears saying "no more than 20 characters" This happens even when the number of characters is LESS than 20! I have tried clearing cell contents, copying & pasting, re-setting conditions/parameters for columns/rows etc., and nothing seems to work with any consistency. Instead of looking for a work-around solution I'd like to find the actual corrective action.
