I need to get the last described cell with in a row with code. So if I'm positioned in A14 and my last described cell A4 contains Hello I want that A14 also contains Hello. I wont care about B4 and so on. If I'm positioned in B13 I just care about the B-Row and so on. Unfortunately I have no idea of VBA so I prefer a non-VBA solution.
You can use something like that perhaps:
=LOOKUP("zzz",A1:A13)
Or using MATCH():
=INDEX(A1:A13,MATCH("zzz",A1:A13))
Or using VLOOKUP():
=VLOOKUP("zzz",A1:A13,1)

When I open excel, the rows move down and a big blank space gets inserted. I have no idea why this is happening nor how to fix it. Any suggestions? See image below:
It's a known monitor issue, you have to check for compatibility
If you drag it about between monitors it can fix it other than that compatibility settings.

I have list of 10000 words and I want to remove the "s" from end of each word.
Clocks
Bracket Clocks
Wall Clocks
Wardrobes
Does anyone know a formula to do this? Thank you.
This will remove the last character of the string if it's an "s" and leave it as-is otherwise:
=IF(RIGHT(C1,1)="s",LEFT(C1,LEN(C1)-1),C1)
Where your words are in column C.
Excel function, assuming data is in column C:
=LEFT(C1,LEN(C1)-1)

I am beginner in Excel. I have a workbook in which the formula column is defined as
=+TEXT($A36,"mmm"), but even if I give =Text($A36,"mmm")
it is returning the Month.
What is the difference in using =+ and + in Excel?
Will it changes the functionality in any ways?
This is simply a legacy way of doing it. From Lotus 123 I believe. It makes absolutely no difference to the functionality.
There is no difference. It's the exact same thing.
It comes from an old syntax used in Lotus

I have a spreadsheet that looks like that:
I want to get the distinct sections, in fact the distinct first string from the section colume. I tried advanced filters however, this only gives me the whole string. Is there a excel formula to check the columes just for the first string?(Like here: bla, blub, bla1, bla2, blue)
I appreciate your answer!
In Excel, add a new column with:
=LEFT(B2,FIND(" ",B2))
that will give you the list of first words; after that you can use filters.

Im trying to create a reference using the indirect formula in excel 2010 however the reference doesn't seem to return any results.
=D53+INDIRECT("'01 07'!"&I53)
If i use the reference in a different way it works.
=D53 + '01 07'!I53
Can't seem to figure out what the problem is. In the future i need the indirect formula to reference to the current sheetname.
Thanks in advance !
Try =D53+INDIRECT("'01 07'!I53")
