    change picture brightness from copy/pasted image

    Hi all, The premise here is that the user clicks a button in the ribbon, and the image is copied from the hidden location and pasted where desired in a table. But I want to make sure the image cannot be seen from where it is being copied. What I came up with was - hiding the images by changing...

    add csv or xml data source

    Hi all, I'm very new to Cognos, and in training only covered ODBC connections. I have a flat file I need to use as a data source that comes to me as a pipe-delimited text file, which I usually convert (text to cols) to XLS to work with in Excel. The data itself is just a table with the first...

    lookup to replace partial strings

    Found the answer: In the Column B on Sheet2 I'd add =VLOOKUP("*"&A2&"*",Sheet2$A:$A,1,0) Same old vlookup, but with the wildcard.

    lookup to replace partial strings

    Hi all, On one worksheet (Sheet1), I've got a column of strings (location names at my company) that are relatively unique. Unfortunately most of the strings max out at a length of 22 characters. So I've got a sad list of unfinished names. I have another worksheet (Sheet2) with a column of a...

    deleting specific XLS columns by macro

    Thanks Skip and PHV. For further clarification, I'm using this macro on a file I receive every day that's formatted the same way - same columns in the same order every time. So in my particular case, hard coding the column numbers into an array is fine with me. So in the end - PHV's array with...

    deleting specific XLS columns by macro

    Hi all, Novice coder here! I'm trying to create a macro that deletes specific columns - just by which one, not even by criteria like a cell value. I'd like to be able to do this with an array where I specify the columns, but I don't know how to loop through each slot in the array to delete the...

    Excel - get a cell value in a row with the max

    Could anyone please help with a formula that would present the value of a cell in column A, whose corresponding column B has the highest value? An example table, where the value the formula presents is Ryan (the max in column B being 128). A B Bruce 45 Jim 23 Ryan...

    getting an aggregate sum based on another column

    Lilliabeth - you're right. I'm really looking for a sum here. I've been doing a lot with SUMPRODUCT recently, it didn't occur to me to use SUMIF. Thanks! Combo - I considered a pivottable, but would prefer to use a formula in this particular case. Thanks!

    getting an aggregate sum based on another column

    Hello, I'm working on a summary report with calculations of a specific count based on data on another sheet (called "Q108") in the same file. My summary report (called "Summary") must count the number of courses from the other sheet, listed as either ILT or e-learning. An example of the data...

    sumproduct

    Hi all, I'm a fan of SUMPRODUCT, but seem to run into issues at every turn. I'm trying to get a count of rows based on two criteria - the name of a course (column A), and the department (column M) that are on another sheet (qdata) in the same file. I am trying to use the formula on a summary...

    dynamic row numbers within a formula

    I'll give the indirect a try. I'm referring to the name of a course in the B column (this is a long list), where 14 different department names are listed above across the top (starting with cell F2). The count is how many course completions from a specific department. What I'd like to be able...

    dynamic row numbers within a formula

    I'm using the SUMPRODUCT formula to calculate the number of times two different conditions are met: that in a column the value equals whatever is in a specific cell. What I would like to be able to do is refer to one of cells by a row number, so it dynamically adds the number without me having...

    checking previous cells in a column for same value

    Hi all, I'm trying to figure out if this idea is even possible... If the value of this cell is "dupSSN1" and "dupSSN1" exists in a previous cell in this column, then concatenate an "ins" to "dupSSN" in this cell. Example: dupSSN1 dupSSN1ins dupSSN2 dupSSN2ins ...where the formula has checked...

    formula to compare multiple columns

    PHV - Thanks for the suggestion. The problem with that is that I'm not comparing row to row due to the data I have. It would work well if that were the case, but I'm comparing a row of exact cells (so, yes A1&B1&C1) against 3 columns, searching for the same 3 values anywhere within the column.
