Working With Groups Of Cells?
Feb 7, 2012
im working with a number of related cells and am having trouble with entering formulas. at the moment im entering them in manually but im hoping theres a better way.
suppose I have a few groups of data. the first group is A1-C1, second group is D1-F1, etc. the values of these cells have to be output somewhere else. so if A1=dog, B1 = cat, C1=car then AA1 would be dog cat car. AB1 would be the concatenation of the next group.
Now my problem is how do i put a formula into AB1, AC1 etc. I cant drag and drop. If I drag AA1 to AB1, AB1 will be the concatenation of B1-D1 instead of D1-F1.
As an aside one thing I thought of is to just put the output cells further apart. So if the first output was to goto AA1 the next one could be output to AD1. The only reason I didnt do this is this sheet is wide enough anyway I didnt want to make it any wider. I also thought of outputting D1-F1 into AD1 and then copy/pasting those values into AB1 but that wouldnt work as I need these values to be changeable.

I am trying to sum groups of cells where the groups contain a variable number of cells (within a column). My sheet has the following columns, C = plot#, G = plant#(within the plot), and F = number of tillers(for each plant). I need to get the total number of tillers per plot. Plots have different number of plants, so for instance cells c11:c16 are plot 3, cells g11:g16 are number 1 thru 6 (plant#), so I need the total number of tillers which would be sum(f11:f16). But each plot has a different number of plants. I've been told I'm not the best at explaining things,

I am trying to divide the total of two groups of cells and I used the following formula:
=sum(B3:M3)/(B17:M17)
However, that is not a correct formula.

to set up a rule so say certain numbers can be put into two groups in another cell.
i.e. codes 01,02,03,04 are grouped in country 1 and 05,06,07,08 are from country 2, so in the same row in a seperate cell it would identify if the product was 1 or 2?

I cant seem to multiply two groups of cells at the same time. Its a hard one to explain so this is what I have tried to use and it doesn't work
=sum(a1:a5*5),(b1:b5*10)
so I tried...
=sum((a1:a5*5)(b1:b5*10)) and that didn't work either
what I want to do is add a1-a5 then * 5 and add it to the total of b1-b5*10.

I am working on this project for work that is pretty large (about 13500 rows) that is filled with items that I currently have sorted alphebetically. What I need to do is if there is a group of cells that have the same code, I need to insert a row at the very end of that group and autosum the quantity. It is becoming very time consuming doing it all by hand so I am trying to find out: is there a function that will automatically insert a row after each group of codes?

I have been given a spreadsheet with the sales data for each of our salesmen. Each job has its state listed and what I need to do is break down the information by region. The catch is that the regions are not given - just the states. So I need to assign the states to their corresponding regions. To do this, I tried writing an "IF" statement like this:
=IF((B2="AL"),"SOUTHEAST",IF((B2="CA"),"WEST",IF((B2="NJ"),"NORTHEAST",IF((B2="TX"),"SOUTH CENTRAL", ... and so on.
So I was doing this for all 50 states. The problem is that the statement got too long. So how do I write this? There has to be a shorter/easier way.

I am trying to add 2 groups of cells and then divide the number by 60?
I can't get it to divide? It will only total.
=SUM(T807:T832)+SUM(T837:T846)/60

I have uploaded a sample sheet to illustrate what I am looking to do.
I want to pull out all instances where the four sheets of a 'book' are the same and appear in the same order. (column b is not really important) I have thousands of 'books' in the sheet so doing the task manually is not really an option.

I am trying to write a formula that will return a result based on which list a cell is found in.
Column A comprises of aisle/position information. The values range from B01 to B65, C01 to C65 ... H01 to H65 (Like aisles/shelf positions in a supermarket). This is not a static list, as the information in column A will change from week to week. It will be sorted prior to trying to work with it. The first three characters of the values in A will be what I'm comparing to the list. There is a fourth character that determines further details about the item that are not pertinent to this issue.
I need to match the value in column A to one of the four groups of values below and have the correct color display in column F. The correct color would be the name of the list that the value is found in.
Blue (K2:K61) contains the values B01 through B25 and C01 through C25.
Red (L2:L80) contains the values F01 to F21, G01 to G23 and H01 to H35.
Yellow (M2:M95) contains the values B36 to B65, C45 to C65 and D23 to D65.
Green (N2:N124) contains the values E36 to E65, F34 to F65, G34 to G65 and H37 to H65.
It probably boils down to a nested IF statement that checks to see if LEFT(A2,3) is found in any of the four lists, but I just can't wrap my head around how to write it.

I want to count the number of groups of 3 adjacent cells in a horizontal range (C5:EV5) in which any cell in the group of 3 has a value in it (as opposed to all the cells being blank or containing "0"). For example, if any or all of the cells in C5:E5 have a value in it, it would count as 1, and if any of the cells in the group F5:H5 have a value, it would also count as 1, and so on. Is there a way to use COUNTIF for this?

Is it possible to use the Combobox ListFillRange to list values from two groups of cells? For example, in column 'A', I have the values, 1,2,3; and in Column 'B', I have the values, A, B, C. I want to list the values in column 'A' along with the value of say, B, in Column 'B'.
combobox.listfillrange = "Sheet1!A1:A3" < ---- how to include value B from column B in this list? Or, how to get value A from column B?

I have a .csv open in Excel 2007 that looks like the following
Code:
1 566
1 566
1 566
2 341
2 341
3 566
3 566
3 566
3 566
...
There is a one-to-one relationship between Column A and B, but B is not unique (but can only take a small set of valid values). I wish to query how many id's (Column A) contain a particular property (Column B). If the example above ended before the "...", I would like to get as the output:
Code:
566 2
341 1
because the property 566 is owned by two id's (1 and 3) and the property 341 is only owned by the id 2.

I am looking for a way to highlight groups of identical number cells in alternating grey and white. My goal is to make it clear when there is a repeating set of numbers. Below is an example of what a completed state of this would look like that I created manually. The real form I will be using this code on will have long number which is why I am looking for this added clarification. I am using excel 2010.

I am using the find function to establish the row number in a spreadsheet for an edit process.
Code:
wks.Range("B:B").find("something").Row
the cells in Range("B:B") are linked to another worksheet. If I copy paste values on the cells in Range("B:B") the code above works a treat.

I have 100's of cells with various formulas similar to this: =U7*9.57. U7 Being the cell with the number of hours worked and 9.57 being the hourly rate. Fairly simple so far. Now there has been a 5% pay rise so unless i get another formula to add 5% on to all these cells i will have to manualy change each hourly pay to the correct value, something i dont want to do. So my question is can i do something like =U7*9.57 then another formula to add 5% on to the 9.57, then i can copy the formula down all the other cells?????

=SUM((DATA!$F$2:$F$3000=A3)*(DATA!$N$2:$N$3000="N")*DATA!$J$2:$J$3000)
This formula doesnt work but =SUM((DATA!$F$2:$F$25=A3)* DATA!$N$2:$N$25="N")*DATA!$J$2:$J$25) works. Thats because all the other cells higher than 25 have a reference to another cell. How to solve it? Maybe with SUMPRODUCT / ISBLANK? See attached file.

In range D8:D11, these dates are normal without formulas and works with the code

If I change the code in Sheet1 to D2:D7 the codes won't work but do work with D8:D11 because the dates in D8:D11 don't have the formulas like D2:D7 has

My goal is to get all numbers that are negative in my A column to be positive.
I filter column A to show only records with negative numbers (there are now hidden cells) (simple example, A2=-1 , A3=2, A4=-3, filter so I can now only see A2 and A4). I insert a column (B) and do "=abs(A1)" and drag that down. This works to get the absolute value of column A into column B, for only the visible records. (so I still only see rows 2 and 4; B2=1, B4=3)
Now the hard part. I want to copy these numbers to column A, but only paste to visible cells. I highlight my data range in column B and hit Alt + ; to only select visible cells. Now I hit Ctrl + c to copy. If I then click on the first cell in column A that I want to paste to and hit Ctrl + V, the data is pasted in all cells, no spaces, filling in the hidden cells, which I do not want (in my example the 1 from B2 goes to A2 and the 3 from B4 goes to A3).
If I select my entire 'paste to' data range in column A (A2:A4), hit ALT + ; to select visible only, and hit CTRL + V to paste, it tells me "This command cannot be used on multiple selections".
AOther postings of seen seem to intimate that my first attempt described here should work (select visible only, copy, then paste), but doesn't! i can copy visible only easily enough, but when I paste, it ALWAYS pastes into all rows, hidden or not.

I've worked with Excel for many years and have just begun writing VBA in Excel 2007, so I am really stumped by this:
SR = 1
SC = 1
TR = 40
TC = 2
Worksheets("ChartData").Activate
' Works
ActiveSheet.Range("A1:B40").Select
' All of the following Fail w/1004 Error
ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(1, 1)).Select
ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(1, 1), Cells(40, 2)).Select
ActiveSheet.Range(Cells(SR, SC), Cells(TR, TC)).Select
At first I thought I had a bad install,
but this is happening on two manufacturer installed systems...
And I seem to be following the documentation for the use of Range with Cells.
Am I missing something?

i have the following code that works ok with single cells but wont work with merged cells
what is supposed to happen is the row is highlighted when double clicked anywhere between column 4-52 and reverts back if double clicked again
But this will not work if the cells are merged.
Also can the colours be changed to RGB colours and not standard colours
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
If Target.Count > 1 Then Exit Sub
If Cells(Target.Row, 4).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone Then
Range(Cells(Target.Row, 4), Cells(Target.Row, 52)).Interior.ColorIndex = 4
Cancel = True
Else
Range(Cells(Target.Row, 4), Cells(Target.Row, 52)).Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub

how i can display different values using the Selection.FormulaArray, ok look at my
Dim mySheet As Worksheet
' On Error GoTo errors
Dim x As Integer
x = TextBox1.Text
Dim y As Integer
y = RefEdit2.value
Set mySheet = Excel.ActiveSheet
mySheet. Range(RefEdit1).Select
Selection.FormulaArray = "=multiplie_value(""" & x & """, """ & y & """)"
MsgBox Selection.FormulaArray
Now the function i call:
Public Function multiplie_value(valor As Integer, multiplo As Integer) As Integer
multiplie_value = Val(valor) * multiplo
End Function
thats an example. so the real question is i create a form, the user enter some values to search to a database, the user select an area(a range) where they want the data to be display, but i dont how to display that info that is coming from the database in the range that the user selected. The info displayed in the range should look like a tabular report, column headers, etc.

I made a spread sheet last year that used various COUNTIF formulas that referenced other cells. =COUNTIF(I40:ER40,"A") It worked perfect.
I copied that spreadsheet to use for this year. I cannot get this formula to work. I have reentered in various locations and forms, but to no avail. If I enter the data and then enter the formula, it works.
However, if I enter the formula first and then enter the data (which I will do over the course of the year) it does not work. I even tried to reconstruct all of this in a brand new spread sheet and it still is not working, although last year's spread sheet still works.

I have two sheets and need information from Sheet titled Add-Del_chng positions to be moved to the sheet titled Cost Distribution.The issues here are :
1. The values in Cells A through J should be moved only if col Z value is 'hard coded"
2. The values should be moved to the 13th row.
3. This should happen every time the value is input into col Z of sheet titled add_del_chng.
Currently the macro does not run unless I go into the code and press play. I need this to happen automatically.

I often have problems with the cells range reference method. For some reason I get an error and can't tell why. Other times it works fine. Is this just an unstable method to use or is this completely wrong? I'm assuming I am using the wrong syntax. It is definetly the range reference causing the problem.
Dim cnt1 as integer, cnt2 as integer,cnt3 as integer
cnt1 = 2
cnt2 = 50
cnt3 = 2
dim myrange as range
set myrange = sheets("sheet1").range(cells(2,cnt1), cells(cnt2,cnt3))
I have no idea why it won't work. I'm basically searching a columner range of cells.

I have a worksheet where I first filtered, then hid some columns. Used to be that I just highlighted the area I wanted copied, clicked the select visible cells button that I put on my toolbar, ctrl c and ctrl v into a new worksheet and only the visible cells would be copied. Now the button isn't working because when I ctrl v into the new worksheet, it shows the hidden columns also.
