Work Out A Formula For My Spreadsheet Which I Use To Work Out Cutting Lists For Timber Frames

Jan 11, 2009

i need to work out a formula for my spreadsheet which I use to work out cutting lists for timber frames. I need it to work out if the width of a job is for eg 2400mm i need to work out how many timber studs I need so the space between each stud is between 400mm and 500mm and this will need to work for a range of different sizes of frames. I have it written at the moment and it just devides the width by 400 and gives me a amount of studs but it would work much better if it could space them between 400 & 500.

Count Formula- Spreadsheet That Is Being Used For Tracking Work Completed Each Day In A Week

Apr 9, 2009

I have a spreadsheet that is being used for tracking work completed each day in a week. Each day has 5 columns and 10 rows of data to potentially be entered, some of the data is text and some is numerical. Can anyone help me come up with a formula that will count the text and the numerical entries for each day? I tried to use a nested if statement but it exceeded the number of nestings available. The range of cells for the first group is B6:F16.

As a side question, will count work for a range of data or only one column or row at a time?

Can Data Validation Lists Reference Another Work Book?

Aug 17, 2009

I have a cell that I want to use data validation on so I have a drop down list. Problem is the location of this list will be in another workbook.. Is this possible to go from one workbook to another using data validation?

Also, depending on the information that is selected from the drop down list I want a cell to the left to pick the corresponding data from the list in the other workbook. These forms will always be in the same folder.. Not sure if that information is necessary but just in case you need to know.

Using Lists Function Calculate The Outstanding Work Estimation Based On Available Information

Feb 10, 2009

I am trying to create a worksheet which can calculate the Outstanding Work Estimation based on available information.

The information available with me is presented in Rows 3, 4, 5, and 6. For these types of work orders, I have information regarding their Previous Outstanding Status, New Orders, Completed Orders, and at presented Unworked Orders (or Outstanding orders at the end of Jan 2008).

Second set of information is available in rows 9 to 23. This information provides for which type of orders were completed by Staff 1 and Staff 2.

Based on these two sets of information, I am trying to get to the point where I can calculate the following:

a) Applying the weight of orders (namely 1A, 1B, 1C and Blend) by using the drop down list function in column B, I should be able to get the results in Column C (C25 onwards till C40), Column D (D25 onwards till D40), and Column E (E25 onwards till E40). Simlarly for all other months...for February, March, and so on...till December 08.

Work In Spreadsheet While Userform Is Open

Mar 20, 2008

Problem: I have textbox entries that are part of a Userform that opens using a macro on a speadsheet button. Once this form is open, I can no longer actively work in the spreadsheets.

Need: I need a way to minimize or "put on hold" the Userform so that I can freely move around in the spreadsheet. This could be in the form of a button on the Userform. Then, I need a way to bring back this userform to the point I was at before being put on hold so that I can continue to input entries into the textboxes (again, a buttton that could bring it back). There should be a way to toggle between both worlds.

Macro Does Not Work From Any Selected Cell On Spreadsheet?

May 21, 2014

I created a very simple macro, which actually works.

There is a button on my spreadsheet, so the user can launch the macro using this button.

[ Code] .......

At the moment the user clicks on the button, the part of the macro which is hiding the rows will not take place if the cell activated at the moment of launching the macro is in the range below :

The table on my Excel sheet covers range A5:E49

If the active cell is anywhere in A6:49 or C5:D24 or C25, the hiding part of the macro will not work. Launched from any other cells on the spreadsheet it works fine.

The rest works fine and I am not getting an error.

To solve this I just need to add the line Range("G9").Select and it will work.

But I would like to understand why it does not work from the cells given above. My sheet is not protected and I unlocked the cells just ion case.

Excel Spreadsheet - Tally Number Of Votes For Particular Artist Work

Mar 14, 2014

We want to create an excel spreadsheet that will tally the number of votes for a particular artist's work. There will be about 150 artist's works that will all be assigned an individual number from 1 to 150 on an excel sheet.

We will have about an hour to complete the counts to determine winners, so a short time frame.

Is there a way of creating a formula/macro in one cell -to just enter the number of the artist's work that was voted for- and have it placed as a tally against the individual piece?

Work Schedule: Insert The Numbers 1-6 Into The Spreadsheet Throughout The 14 Days For Each Employee

Oct 7, 2009

I developed a 14-day work schedule and I assigned each different job position a number. The different job positions are numbered 1-6 and are as follows: #1=5:30am-1:30pm, #2=6:00am-2:00pm, #3=9:30am-1:30pm, #4=12:00pm-8:00pm, #5=1:00pm-8:00pm & #6=6:00pm-8:00pm. Numbers 1,2,4,5 clock-out for a 30 minute lunch break, while the other numbers do not.

My goal is to insert the numbers 1-6 into the spreadsheet throughout the 14 days for each employee, and have Excel calculate the total number of hours for each employee in the far right column. I would also like "V" & "H" to equal 7.5 hours. This would save a lot of time instead of going through and adding up the hours with a calculator

IF Formula Only Work If Particular Cell Is Less Than 50

Aug 7, 2014

See the attached workbook.

Please edit the formula in column B so that it only gives a BINGO if the adjacent cell in column G is less than 51.

So cell M16 should not be a BINGO because cell G16 is not less than 51.

Work Schedule Formula Using IF?

Jan 8, 2014

Combing these two formulas. I have a work schedule spreadsheet. If the employee is Off I want the value to = 0 (zero hours). But if the cell has a start time I need it to calculate those hours. I know both of the formulas work individually. But I need them to work together.

Formula for when cell says OFF:

And the second

Formula to calculate hours (based on start time/finish time is the same for all employees)

Formula Which Will Work Out 48 Permutations

Jan 17, 2007

I need to work out a formula which will work out 48 permutations.

There are three headings: Impact, Probability, Risk Category:

ImpactProbabilityRisk Category
VHM = 1
VHH = 1
VHVH = 1
HH = 1
HVH = 1
VHL = 2
HM = 2
MH = 2
MVH = 2
HL = 3
LVH = 3
MM = 4
LH = 4
ML = 5
LL = 5
LM = 5

The formula I need is: if Impact is "L" and probability is "M", then return answer = "5".

The thing is - there are 48 possible answers - and im not sure what formula you could type into 1 cell - which would answer this.

Some Times If I Do A =if( ) Formula It Doesn't Work

Mar 12, 2008

What am I doing wrong here. Some times if I do a =if( ) formula it doesn't work. For example, look at the attached picture. Cell K63 should say "End of Run". But it doesn't, What gives?

Also I have had before where i do =IF(X62>$O$2,"End of Run", 0) (and $O$2 =81) and the cell when X62 is 81, not greater than. I know I can to >=, but thats not what I am doing.

Why Wont Max Work On Cells That Have A Formula

Nov 19, 2007

On the attached form, for row 3 information is manually inputed into C3 and E3 to J3; K3 then looks at the max value inputed in E3 to J3 and alters L3 accordingly.

Row 4 is my attempt to automate the process. I am trying to alter the sheet so that the information added into C4 updates E4 to J4 automatically and then K4 looks at the max value and alters L4 accordingly.

Since I added the formula to H4 to look for info in C4, the max formula in K4 no longer works, as such L4 will not update.

Can't Get Formula To Work When Put Inside A Loop

Apr 14, 2014

LastRow = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rows.Count, "K").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 2 To LastRow
Worksheets("Sheet1").Formula = "=IFERROR(+IF(+K2=0,0,+R2/(+IF(+K2>L2,K2,L2)*$AE$1/365)/P2),0)"
If (Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("AE" & i).Value < 1.5) And _
((Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("K" & i).Value > 0) Or (Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("L" & i).Value > 0)) Then
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("AE" & i).Font.Color = 255
End If
Next i

My loop here works just fine, and my Formula works in testing. However when I move my formula inside the loop I get an error.

Is the syntax wrong in this line = Worksheets("Sheet1").Formula = "=IFERROR(+IF(+K2=0,0,+R2/(+IF(+K2>L2,K2,L2)*$AE$1/365)/P2),0)"
