I run a catalogue of music (thousands of records) made in excel
where I have in the first cell the name of the band + album + format,
something like this:
Pearl Jam - name of the album - CD
how can I turn automatically all names of bands into CAPITALS, in
example:
PEAR JAM - name of the album - CD
Is there a way to turn in CAPITALS all text from the beginning of a cell 'till the symbol with spaces on both sides ( - ) of each cell ?
I know how to turn the entire cell into CAPITALS using the formula =upper(column nº) but not just part of the cell.
I have a workbook which is set up to take an average heart rate of a participant from a series of data points. I have set the spreadsheet up before I have collected some of the data. (so I can review the project at the 3 months period and its an ongoing project).
The problem is that if there is no data in a participants column then excel correctly gives you readout of “#DIV//0!”. On my results page this #DIV//0!” makes it hard to read the spreadsheet. Is it possible to get excel to turn #DIV//0!” to “0” or even turn it to a blank cell?
can I set a cell in excel so that if a number in a different cell is above a certain number it will turn green and another cell to turn red. I have attached the file.
I am attempting to create a ROI calculator for my place of work. I want a blank cell to fill in green or red based a cell below it being equal or greater than 5.0%. What is the Macro or equation to do that?
I know I can right click in cell and choose from the items, but can I actually make the cell a drop-down box, like on websites? Meaning, can I choose which options/numbers/letters/choices I want in the drop down, and be able to right click and highlight one?
I am writing a function that opens up an external excel document, identifies a string in a certain range and then i also want it to return a cell reference for that string including the number of rows beneath the cell that the string was found in.
I want to add a hyphen to 2 particular cells if they are blank. The form is populated from another software package with dimensions. If Columns D and E have any blank cells, want to insert a hyphen. Can't use VB because the particular software package will only output to a template with .xlt
If can't do with Conditional Format, then okay I can tell the inspectors to use add by hand
I have a formula in A56 that adds cells A1:A54. I want to use conditional formatting to highlight A56 if any of the cells in A1:A54 are blank. I am unsure how to do this.
I have worked out the conditional formatting but i have a question. The cell has a date which is input manually - no formulas or anything it reads 14/09/09. however can i have the cell automattically turn red once the date =NOW() is the 15th sept??
so this gives a part number depending on what number is placed in O6. What I need to do know is look at 2 different cells and for each combination of numbers give a different part number. so if A1 is 2 and B1 is 3 give a certain result.
Is there any way to remove the first part of a string of text in a cell and save the second part?
The first part of the text string is a team code that has a variable number of numbers, capital letters and sometimes spaces. The second part of the text string is a variable number of words in a team name that all start with a capital letter and have lower case letters. Every line has a different team code and team name.
The original spreadsheet also has a column with just team code. Is there a way of using this column to "subtract" the team code from the text string to just leave the team name?
I have a sheet where i have many differently named areas (like state1_1 and state1_2) When I doubleclick on a cell then a macro should run with following criteria: 1) Macro will run if the doubleclicked cell is part of any range in the list. Here I mean that names of ranges which belong to that list start with word state (like state1_1 and state1_2). No other ranges should not be in that list. If the cell is not in the range that is part of the list, then nothing should happen.
I have a spreadsheet with 2 worksheets. On the first "active parts" I have a list of active part numbers and on the second "All Parts" I have all of the parts available.
I want to compare every part in the All Parts worksheet to see if the part number exists on the Active Parts sheet - if it's there, I would like it to return the value "Active" in column B in All Parts. I have a formula in column B in All Parts that seems to work for the first few, but as soon as it finds one that is active, the rest of the cells below all return "Active".
I have 2 basic parts to a Macro which need to be separated by a pause of 1 second, before proceeding to the next part of the macro. Then pause for 1 second, and loop.
Application.Wait is no good to me as the spreadsheet must remain live, editable, and receiving updates from an external program linked via DDE. Below is the ...
i have a column of data part number part text e.g 7w1,8b1 in the next column i want to write a function that will look at the other and dependant on whats in it place a word e.g. for 8b1 i need it to look at the "b" and enter beauvale if theres no "b" but a "w" enter wollaton, i have tried an if function and used "*b*" but it doesnt seem to like wildcards ....
These cells contain a time reference either in '09:30 - 16:30' format or just an 'AM/PM' format.
What I need to do is to populate column B with the part of the string that comes AFTER the times in the text (either in hh:mm format or AM/PM format)
Example 336 Data 2012 Classroom Induction 2012/08/28 09:30 - 16:30 data about this ------> data about this 336 Information about this 2013/04/04 09:00 - 13:00 Information 2 ------> Information 2 336 info CHS Suffolk 2013/05/07 PM DRC, BSE ------> DRC, BSE 364 information 2013/02/12 AM DRC, BSE ------> DRC, BSE
I cannot get this to work and cannot use Text To column as there is no character I can use to split it.
In one cell I have multiple value:09/16/2013, 09/16/2013, 09/16/2013, 10/15/2013
I want to use the first read which is 08/22/2013. Not always i have multiple dates in my table.This is part of code that I am working on.What I usually do, to get the last value when I have multiple reads is:
I have select the cell C1, the multiple reads(dates) are in the cell B1, so i need the last read(10/15/2013) ;i use this code:
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RIGHT(RC[-1],10)+1"
SO now I want use the same logic but i want to take the first read/date. Also here the cell from where I want to get the value is selected.
Above the multiple reads were in the cell B1 and cell C1 was selected before performing the code, now the code is in the cell B1 and B1 is also selected.
I tried to do ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=Left(RC[-1],10)" but I rich the value in the cell on left which is A1. I want this for tomorrow since I have something to present.
If I have some data in a cell (let's say D1) such as "m-3,s-2,xl-4", what formula can I use in say cell D2 so that if I find the characters "s-" in Cell D1, then it will return the value "2".
Similarly, in say in Cell D3, I would then want to use the same formula but modify it so that if the characters "xl-" are contained within Cell D1, the formula will return "4"
Just "upgraded" my Excel to the 2007 version. In the old Excel, I could superscript part of a cell by highlighting the part I want, then going to "Format" and "Superscript."
In Excel 2007, it doesn't work. Yes, I can highlight the part of the cell I want to superscript, I can right-click and select "format" and "Superscript", and it even then shows as superscripted in the cell. That is, until I hit enter or move to a new cell. Then the superscript is no longer there. The cell is in "general" number format.
By the way, it did work in another cell: mg/l3 (3 superscripted) works. 742 (2 superscripted) doesn't work.
