I have a monster spreadsheet that has codevalues in column C and display values in column E. Each display value is only shown once per code value and i need it in every row.
is it possible using VBA to copy the cell contents of E2 to E3 if C2 = C3 as in to update the blank to the correct value?
so if C2=C3 then copy B2 to B3???
heres a subset of the 32000 rows i need to cross check against another domain
C (code value) E(display)
2 83732063 Red Cell Ferritin-SCH
3 83732063
4 83732067 Plasma Volume-SCH
5 83732071 Acylcarnitine Level-SCH
6 83732071
7 83732075 Carnitine Total Level-SCH
8 83732075
9 83732079 Creatine Level-SCH
10 83732083 Gamma Aminobutyrate Lvl (CSF/Urine)-SCH
Try,
on error resume next
with worksheets("sheet1").columns("E")
with .specialcells(xlcelltypeblanks)
.formular1c1 = "=if(rc[-2]=r[-1]c[-2], r[-1]c, text(,))"
end with
.value = .value
end with
on error goto 0

I can't seem to find anything similar that's already been asked (they all relate to incrementing row numbers rather than columns)
I'm looking to drag a formula across horizontally and have the columns increment by 2
E.g. B1-A1, D1-C1, F1-E1...
Thanks!
You'll need to have a value in cell A1 and B1 for the following to work.
For my testing I put the number 1 in A1 and B1.
Try this in Cell C1:
=IF(MOD(COUNT($A$1:B1),2)=0,COLUMN(B1),IF(B1<>A1,B1,A1))
Here's what you should see when you drag that formula across:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N
1 1 2 2 4 4 6 6 8 8 10 10 12 12
And this is what the formula does:
The MOD(COUNT() part of the formula counts the cells to the left of it, and if they are a multiple of 2, the value changes.
I've left the value to change to (the 'new' value) as the COLUMN() number for the cell before, just for example's sake. but you can change this part.
The last IF statement at the end checks if the cell before is equal to the cell before that, (eg. Is CELL C1 equal to CELL B1) and if they are not equal, it will give the cell before as a value (the 'copy' value).
I select 3 isolated cells such as a1, f6 and g13, then run this code:
Selection.Cells(1) = 3
Selection.Cells(2) = 4
Selection.Cells(3) = 6
I expect the 3 selected cells to be filled, instead a1, a2 and a3 are filled.
Why? How can I fill the 3 cells of my selection?
If you really need to do this, then I'd still suggest moving away from Selection but the code you provide needs just a small tweak to work:
Selection.Cells.Areas(1) = 3
Selection.Cells.Areas(2) = 4
Selection.Cells.Areas(3) = 6
I am looking to format some data. To make it more easy I use an example with simple numbers.
Sheet 1 ('S1'):
A1 10
A2 14
A3 23
A4 12
A5 64
A6 32
.... etc
It is a long list(vertical) of 600 values
Now I want in Sheet 2('S2'):
To show it as:
S1!A1 S1!A2 S1!A3 S1!A4 S1!A5 S1!A6
S1!A7 S1!A8 S1!A9 S1!A10 S1!A11 S1!A12
S1!A13 S1!A14 S1!A15 S1!A16 S1!A17 S1!A18
References to the cells in the other sheet.
I have tried to transpose them but I cannot find a modifier to set an amount of columns used. i.e. I would get 1 row with all my data. I want only the first 6 in row, next 6 in next row, next 6... etc.
Thanks for any help/feedback given.
Put this in the upper left cell desired:
=INDEX(Sheet1!$A:$A,(ROW(1:1)-1)*6+COLUMN(A:A))
Then copy/drag over 6 columns and down till you finish the list
Sheet1
I realize my title doesn't really explain what I'm asking as I don't know the correct terminology but bear with me and I'll explain my question.
I know how to link two cells so that if one changes, the other does as well (i.e. cell C3 is linked to cell E5 by selecting cell C3 and entering "=E5"). But how do I link the information in the cell to another cell?
If my worksheet looks like this:
cell B1 - Grapes, cell C1 - 50
cell B2 - Apples, cell C2 - 60
and I link cell F1 to cell C2 with "=C2". If I change the order of cell B1 and cell B2 to become alphabetical then cell F1 is no longer linked to the value in cell C2 (50) but changes to the value that now becomes cell C2 (60). How do I link cell F1 to the actual value (50) in cell C2 even if the order changes.
Help... Thank you!
Not sure if this is an efficient method; if i correctly understood your question then you can use = to link two cells For example:
Sheet one can look like this
A B C D E
1 1 2 3 4 5
2 5 4 3 2 1
3 1 2 3 4 5
Total 7 8 9 10 11
Sheet two requires cell links so you do:
TotalForA =Sheet1!A4 //output will be 7
TotalForB =Sheet1!B4 //output will be 8
.
.
.
In a simple word you can use = sign and click on whatever cell you're like to get.
I have a spreadsheet with 2 columns of data, column A and B, and column C where I'm looking for the formula.
row A B C
1 50
2
3
4
5 56 6
6
7
8 46 10
9
10
11 64 18
As you can see, a row either contains a value or not. In column C, I'm looking to calculate the difference between
a) the value in column B and the value in column A's first non-empty cell directly above (so for example, at row 5, I calculate the difference between B5 and A1 56 - 50 = 6) if the value of B is a number and
b) the value in column A and the value in column B's first non-empty cell directly above (row 8, 56 - 46 = 10)
and put nothing if neither column A and B are empty.
I've been struggling with "first non-empty cell" to write an R1C1 formula. Note that I know I can do this in VBA but I'm looking for the R1C1 formula.
Thanks for your help.
Here is an array formula (that you need to validate with Ctrl + Shift + Enter) you can put in C1 and drag and drop till the end of your data:
=IF(OR(A1<>"",B1<>""),INDEX($B$1:B1,MAX(IF($B$1:B1="",0,ROW($B$1:B1))))-INDEX($A$1:A1,MAX(IF($A$1:A1="",0,ROW($A$1:A1)))),"")
Or, in a french version of Excel:
=SI(OU(A1<>"";B1<>"");INDEX($B$1:B1;MAX(SI($B$1:B1="";0;LIGNE($B$1:B1))))-INDEX($A$1:A1;MAX(SI($A$1:A1="";0;LIGNE($A$1:A1))));"")
Note that if you feel interested, you can commit into Stackoverflow in french
Perhaps try this formula in C2 copied down
=IF(B2="",IF(A2="","",LOOKUP(9.99E+307,B$1:B1)-A2),B2-LOOKUP(9.99E+307,A$1:A1))
