this formula is on Sheet1 and works ok but would be a LOT better if I could use some variables in it.
=SUMIF('Sheet2'!$D$56:$D$96,Sheet1!G3,'Sheet2'!$E$56:$E$96)
G3 is a date
$d$56 to $d$96 are dates
$e$56 to $e$96 are Dollar amounts
I would like to be able to replace the $d$56 to something like $D
and $d$96 with $D
same with $e...
How would I set up a formula that can search for a unique identifier if the unique identifier is not know.
I would like to set up this formula in Tab 1 where it looks to column A in Tab 2, which is a column of about 600 unique identifiers, to find any cells containing the string "VA". There will be multiple cells that include "VA" in the string
I would like this formula to collect all the cells in the column A in Tab 2 into a column of cells in Tab 1 beginning in Cell A5. I would copy the formula in Cell A5 of Tab 1 down multiple lines. I can add a segment to the formula that will return a blank if there are no more cells with the indicated string included.

I am trying to find out how many weeks our current inventory will support our sales. I am trying to research formulas that will do this, and coming back with things like OFFSET, MATCH, INDEX but am not certain the best way to put them together to get what I need. I use excel daily, but this is a bit mroe advanced than I am used to
Mini.xlsx
Starting in cell B4, I would like to count how many weeks of Demand can be covered by the specific Available On Hands in row 3 for that week, put the number of "Weeks Covered" into cell B2, and then fill over to the right in row 2. Right now, the values in row 2 are from my own manual calculations, but I would like a dynamic formula that will sum up the values in row 4 up to (but not greater than) the value in B3, give the count of cells that reached that sum (or even better with decimals to show the percentage covered), which I will copy over into B3:B13. Not sure if that makes sense, or if I can explain in a better way. The yellow cells are what I am trying to create a formula for and am currently stuck.
does anyone have any thoughts on any way to create a formula that will create a unique identifier for a single row? I thought about using concatenate to combine a few columns in a row which will probably work 99% of the time, but I cant risk it being wrong 1% of the time. Any ideas on how to incorporate checking if the concatenation (aka the unique identifier) already exists, and if so, add a number or something to it to make it unique?
The data has rows added and removed on a normal basis in random spots on the sheet so I cant simply just have a number incrementing for each row I add as the unique identifier. In other words, the unique identifier should never change even if I add or remove rows anywhere in the sheet.
when I code VBA .. I am constantly referring to cells like:
Worksheets("").Range("")
or Workbooks("").worksheets("").Range("")
is it possible to do something like
Dim var_1 as Range
var_1 = workbooks("blah").Worksheets("blahagain")
then to use:
msgbox var_1.Range("A1").value
I have a spreadsheet (Excel 2000) that contains around 10,000 rows. I now
need to be able to identify each row via a unique identifier, but am having
trouble working out what to do when new rows are added or when existing rows
are copied and paste.
New rows and copied rows should get new unique identifiers, but I can see no
way of doing this. Does anyone have any suggestions? There is nothing unique
about the data that I can hang on to and the "SheetChanged" event does not
fire for inserted rows in Excel 2000.
This spreadsheet is owned by one of our clients, so I can't add new
worksheets or columns to the existing workbook - I can just add cell
comment.
Here at work we have a set of 12 workbooks, that form an extensive activity plan. I have created an add-in that creates a worksheet menu bar item and adds different functionalities to these 12 files. Because any user might have more than one of these documents open at one time, I am forced to refer to the documents by ActiveWorkbook. A bonus added feature: the names of these files change periodically, but not at the same time.
Before running any procedure I must validate that the active book is one of these files. Currently I am testing the existence of a veryhidden sheet codenamed "shIsValid" in the workbook. Now I'm thinking, there has to be a better way to do this. Simplest way would be if ThisWorkbook object had a Tag property similar to UserForms, but this doesn't seem to be the case. I wonder, is there actually a way to give a workbook any identifier (boolean, string or number) that I can access directly, so I can get rid of these dummy worksheets.
I'm looking for a code where all those rows which contain some identifier be deleted.
Eg, If any row contains identifiers like "----" , "PROG:" , etc shall be deleted.
NOTE: The identifiers are found on the A Column of any row.
All rows which do not contain the above identifiers shall remain untouched.
I thought this would be very easy to achieve in Excel but is proving difficult. Basically I have a number of excel worksheets with the headers as below. What I would like to do is to use the staff number from each worksheet to populate and sum a master worksheet. Some staff numbers will be in each of the workbooks while some are only in one. While the employee name should also be the same in each of the workbooks there are some differences in spelling etc.

I have undertaken a project and have hit a brick wall.
I'll try and translate my request in the easiest way I can.
I have a piece of software that stores what software is installed on a machine when it connects to my domain.
I therefore have a list of software that is installed on machines that connect to my domain.
Each machine that connects to the domain has a unique identifier code.
At present I have about 500 different pieces of software on the various machines.
The unique identifier for the software installed on each machine is a combination of the application (column B), the program (column C) and the version (column D)
I wanted to give each seperate piece of software a unique ID number.
I was wanting to run a formula similar to the pseudocode below:
If $b$1="adobe" and $c$1="8.0.0.1" and $d$1="adobe reader", then "1",
elseif $b$1="adobe" and $c$1="7.0.0.1 and $d$1="adobe pro" then "2", else "no software ID"
I am thinking that if I can get every piece of software that is installed on the machines to have a software ID then I can create a software ID allowed list then I can create a formula to identify what laptops have software on the "allowed" and "banned" lists.
The problem at present is getting the sotfware to lookup what software ID they have as they need to check 3 columns with a lookup list.
I have a table with an identifier in column A and values in columns B to Z.
The structure is like this:
IdentifierA
value1
value2
value3
value4
IdentifierB
value5
value6
[Code] ......
There is 3.000 rows of data. As you can see some of the identifiers have no values.
On another sheet I need the following table to be generated in this format (two columns):
IdentifierA Value1
IdentifierA Value2
IdentifierA Value3
IdentifierA Value4
IdentifierB Value5
[Code] .....
Note that as IdentifierD has no values it shouldn't be in the new table.
I think a macro could probably do this, but I am worthless with VBA. What I need to do is consolidate lines of text if they have the same numeric identifier. See below.
ID Text
345 This is a sentence that
345 has line breaks in it, but
345 needs to be consolidated
345 into one cell, if you would
345 be so kind as to help me.
345 KTHX!
346 Oh no, here's another one
346 that has a different number
346 of rows. Eep!
Not sure how to consolidate text or concatenate it, since it's not always going to be the same number of rows each time this happens. I need something with an if statement and...some other crap.
I am trying to achieve the following. In D2: AQ2 there a values indicating the subject identifier for that column, eg in D2 it is SEN and E2 is Art. Each row represents a pupil name into which grades are inputted. I want to compile a list of column identifiers that corresponds to a D grade (it could be D, D- or D+) eg
A2 Name ----D2 SEN --- E2 Art --- F2 Business Studies
A3 Bob ------D3 D+ ----- E3 A -----F3 C
A4 Tim ------D4 C -----E4 D------F4 D
A5 Pete------D5 D------E5 D+ -----F5 D-
Expected output for Bob is SEN. Expected output for Tim is Art, Business Studies. Expected output for Pete is SEN, Art, Business Studies.
I've enclosed a small sample of the actual worksheet. Expected results for row 3 start in cell CP3.
I am trying to use a formula that will populate A3 with the value of A2, all the way down the column. (as per the area highlighted in yellow) As you can see on the example sheet, the account code changes periodically, this has been causing me many problems!
As the list i am working on has around 100 differfent codes, it is too time consuming to copy paste manually
Reason for this is so that each invoice number in column B, will have a unique identifer in column A (account code)
I have a Sheet in a workbook that has about 250 Unique supervisors in it (column A) It has about 2300 rows of employees. Is there a macro that can take the employees supervisor column (A) and break the rows associated to that supervisor into a new sheet & and name the sheet with the supervisor’s name? Can excel have 250 sheets (2003 version)?

I have been attempting to solve a problem for quite some time and would love any help anyone can provide. I'm on Win XP, Excel 2003.
I have a series of assets each with a unique number to identify it in it's own row. In a separate worksheet I have a column with just these numbers next to a column with a word assigned to each number. Some are only listed once but many are listed multiple times. I was looking for a function that will retrieve the information in the second worksheet and place it in the row that it corresponds to the number in the first sheet. I've listed an idea of what it looks like below. I'm looking for it to search for every instance of that number and provide what's next to it. The first set of information is what I have, the last is what I'd like it to look like.
1 hamster..............1 hamster
2 cat......................2 cat, feline, kitten
2 feline..................3 dog, puppy
2 kitten..................4. etc.....

I have tried a slew of different formulas but I can't seem to get the outcome I am looking for. I need to make a station comparison for an individual project build based off a master list. Sheet 1 has the individual build with column A as a part number, column b as a description and column c as a quantity required and column D is blank. Sheet 2 has a master list of every part we carry formatted as: column a as a part number, column b as a description, column c as a quantity required and column d as a unique station identifier for that part (which is always a number).
What I am trying to do is match the part number on Sheet 1 Column A to Sheet 2 Column A, and when a match is found, take the unique identifer under column D associated with that part number and have it displayed on Sheet 1 Column D.
Sheet 1 will change with each build, but it will always be the same format in columns a,b,c,d. Basically I have a format on sheet 1 for what is needed to build each custom kit (787 kits) and sheet 2 carries every part we offer along with the identifer in column d (always a number value). I want to create a formula I can easily copy to match the value in sheet 1 column a to sheet 2 column a and add the identifier from sheet 2 column D to sheet 1 column D. The average kit is roughly 120+ parts so doing that for each part 787 times will be a nightmare. Also in case this matters, sheet 1 column A will have the parts arranged in a random order based on what is desired for that kit. Sheet 2 column A has the part numbers in order from our lowest part number to the highest number (basically an entire inventory list sorted from lowest to highest).
Example
(For sheet 1, since it doesnt carry formating 11111111 is in column a, nut, flange is in column b, 1.00 is in column c and the output data i want would go into column D)
Sheet 1
A B C D
11111111Nut, Flange 1.00 *Starts blank* -looking for - Output from Sheet 2 Column D (1)
33333333Bolt, Squared 4.00 *Starts blank* -looking for - Output from Sheet 2 Column D (4)
55555555Bolt, Coated 3.00 *Starts blank* -looking for - Output from Sheet 2 Column D (2)
22222222Bolt, Hex 4.00 *Starts blank* -looking for - Output from Sheet 2 Column D (11)
44444444Bolt, Screw Type 2.00 *Starts blank* -looking for - Output from Sheet 2 Column D (3)
Sheet 2
A B C D
11111111Nut, Flange 1.00 1
22222222Bolt, Hex 4.00 11

I would like to copy values corresponding to a unique identifier from one sheet to another, using the vlookup function. The problem is that after a certain cell the values are given as N/A even though they are present in the sheet I want to copy them from.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI would like to combine values from multiple records into a single record using a unique identifier. In the example below 'ID' is the unique identifier.
For example:
I have a set of 4 multiple choice answers B,C,D,E column "F" lists a # 1-4 which lets you know which column letter (b,c,d,e) the correct answer is in. I want to set up a formula that will copy the contents of the correct answer (based on that # identifier) and copy it into column "A" which is currently blank.
View 7 Replies View RelatedHere's an example of what i want to do
A_________ B Frank Sinatra C Sammy Davis D Dean Martin E Joey Bishop F 3
I want to put "D"'s value 'Dean Martin' in column A - i know it belongs in A because the "3" in column F indicates its the 3rd answer listed i.e Dean Martin. This format would be the same where there are 4 possible answers on the column to the right dictates which answer is correct.
I have a list of headings and items and I have a set of formulas that work out depending on the heading what items are listed.
Say theres 10 items and the heading starts at C4 and that heading has 10 items, so it puts "C5" as text in G1 and "C15" as text in G2 so i now know my cell range of items
How can i use the text in those cells to put in a formula to call that as a range?
If I use the indirect formula it shows me the value of the cell, but im after using it to reference the cell
I am looking for a formula that returns the cell address of the last cell > 0 in a range.
in the example: A1CLA23 8
4546557528
the result should be A7.
In VBA formula below I would like to use instead of R[-587]C use cell (G1):
=IF(R[-587]C=""Yes"",1,0)
How do I do that?
I have a file wiht 2 sheets, on one sheet I have a macro that opens 25 other excel files and pastes information into the sheet in a specific order. Then on the "main" page I have different calculations based on the information from the other sheet.
The Information is listed in a row so for example B2:M2 or B3:M3. If a value has not been assigned the vcell will be empty (No formula or anything, completely empty)
The Value in the cells will be between 0 and 100 (its a score from 0-100) so in the "main" page I want a formula that calulates the LATEST score (It will always be the first one on the furthest left and the latest one to the furthest right). Is there any easy formula to calculate this?
For example:
----B-----C-----D-----E-----F-----G-----H-----I-----J-----K-----L-----M
2|-10----30----75----85----93----12---12
So in the example I2:M2 is empty so the latest score would be H2 so thats the value I want to show on the main page.
I have a range of names (say A1:A10) and another range (J1:J3) which contains text strings such as "og", "alle", "ins".
What I need to do is to check each of the names in A1:A10 to see if the cell contains any of the values in J1:J3 (an "exclusion list").
For example:
A1 contains the name John Smith, so I'd need to return a value of false as none of the text strings in J1:J3 is contained in that name. But A2 contains the name Elizabeth Allen, so I'd need to return a value of true as that name contains the text string "alle" which is in the range J1:J3.
I could do three different checks using the formula =SEARCH(J1,A1), =SEARCH(J2,A1),, =SEARCH(J3,A1) and then copy those three formulas down A1:AA10. If I only had three exclusions to check on my actual data that's what I'd do, but my real-life exclusion list contains over 50 different values, and it's a bit time consuming to create 50 different search formulas!
I'm using the code below to create sheets and copy pertinent data for each value found in column O on my data sheet.
Code:
Sub CreateSheets()
Dim WBO As Workbook
Dim ThisWS
[Code]....
What I'm now trying to do, is apply a formula for each cell, in columns C:N for each newly created sheet. The formula is 'The value of 100 minus the value of the cell'.
I've tried adding
Code:
cell.Value = 100 - cell.Value
to differing points of the script but I recieve a 'Type mismatch error.
how to move formula range without inserting any rows. For example, I have a sum(a1:a3) and I need to have sum(a2:a4). I have hundreds of these little formulas through the spreadsheet and they are driving me crazy. Is there any way I can select a block of data and have a macro simply shift all formula ranges within that block one down? Copying the formulas down and then moving the result in place of the original doesn't work as I have formulas relying on these results and I will get #REF errors. I bought an Excel VBA for dummies, but have been so swamped with work that I haven't had a chance to look at it, or even to think about where I would begin to look.
