    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    This may need VBA as the OP says they do not want to use helper columns.

    Higher mathematics and/or programming may be the answer, in either case I have hit the proverbial wall on this one.

    This is getting a bit out of hand with no helper columns. VBA expertise perhaps?

    The OP never responded, but gave me a rep today (after 13 days) saying "Thank You". All seems good.

    OP would like the months to update automatically in the columns field of the pivot table. Best I was able to offer was manual adjustment using grouping.

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    I provided a VBA that isn't helping out any better, but the OP is trying to fill in 300,000 rows with a Sumif formula. I suspect it could be recalculating all the way down, but not sure. Any thoughts or is there an alternative?

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    Would appreciate someone with Power Pivot/Power Query expertise having a look at this one. I probably employed inefficient methods and was not able to come up with a solution to producing subtotals by month per type of investment.

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    Am I doing some classic mistake that makes Excel crash? Or is it just that buggy? Too bad, I really liked the task...
    https://www.excelforum.com/excel-for...ml#post5278037

    It started when I put the code in the sheet module I think and I had to rename the macros to make the buttons work.

    I just cannot get my head around what is required in this thread: https://www.excelforum.com/excel-for...ied-value.html

    It's all time-related calculations, and the OP has provided a workbook with a very thorough explanation. Trouble is, I can't follow it. Anyone care to take a look?

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    This was already posted back on 2/23 by jeffreybrown. I thought I had a solution. I did for the sample, but OP has to output of 200K rows. My solution does not handle that.

    Can this be done more efficiently with VBA or other?

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    @Dave, perhaps posting the file*, in the Call Concurrency thread may help someone either build on that or convert the thought process into code.
    *I am speaking of the one you mention to in post #17 that you tested using helper columns and which sped up the original single formula process.

    I managed to help the OP partially https://www.excelforum.com/excel-new...ml#post5288440 but have no idea why the conditional formatting triggers and why the COUNT function used by the OP returned a strange outcome

    I have a suspicion this will be awfully tough to do with formulas, but for some of you, not so much. I offered a pivot table, but no luck.

    If I'm understanding this person's issue, they need to create a bar code from a value in the data tab A2 though it has taken a while for me to get the info out of them (and I could still be wrong LOL). I do not have a bar code font downloaded.

    Stuck on this one. The OP wants to create a new list of items that are in List 1 but not in List 2. OP wants to include any non-matched up items. For example, 300 appears in list 1 twice but in list 2 only once so it should go in the new list. thanks in advance

    Note: I'm pretty sure this is the post Brian is referring too https://www.excelforum.com/excel-for...-two-list.html

    Anybody feel like putting in some vba.formula code for Rachael? I just don't think it is going to get her where she needs to go.

    She clears a big range and then needs formulas back again? I'm just a little confused on her need.

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    I am not familiar with Excel's Online version and barely so for google sheets; however it seems like an online offering should be able to do what the OP is asking for here https://www.excelforum.com/showthread.php?t=1309771

    Otherwise SharePoint has a bazillion options, one of which if I remember correctly is to host ASP files which they could just target with a HTTP request.

    I haven't had to do this yet, but hoping someone else with a bit more exp in this area can guide the way.

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    This OP is attempting to produce two pivot tables from a data model having the dates grouped differently in each. The OP is using the 2013 version of Excel. I can produce the pivot tables as described in the video the OP references (link is in post #7 (@13:00 mark)), but I am using the 2019 version. Was hoping that someone who has the 2013 version would test and see if the method described in the video works for them.

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    Thought I had a pretty sweet running routine by post #43 here but it seems that there is an insurmountable date formatting problem. Good Luck!

    Update - I "doubled it up" and might have fixed it - we'll see

    Update - The "doubling" did it - so don't need help and thanks anyway!

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    OP is trying to plot "gaps as #N/A" in a line chart. The behavior of the #N/A error in charts has changed in 2016 and later, so I cannot test. I'm hoping someone with a newer version of Excel can cover the details of using N/A as empty for Excel 2016. (Link to Peltier's tutorial on this in my response to the thread).

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    This one is currently headed towards a question on database design and how to get data into a database. Since I don't do databases, I am probably not the best one to help. Perhaps one of you with more experience with databases in Excel can see what help you can offer.

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    Assuming I understand the OP's situation here (https://www.excelforum.com/excel-cha...on-x-axis.html ), we are trying to build a "pivot chart" that shows data for "hours" (categories) that may not exist in the source data. I have reached the limits of what I know about pivot tables and charts. I can work with the solutions I have proposed, if the OP accepts either solution, but I am not sure if there is a better solution (maybe using power pivot or power BI, if necessary?). If anybody has additional options to offer, I would be interested to see what else would be proposed -- even if the OP is not interested in other options.

    The OP wants to be able to change the "inclusive/exclusive" setting for all the data series in his box plot in one go. If 2016 behaves like my older version, Excel does not allow you to select multiple series and change a setting for all series at once. I am looking for someone who actually uses 2016 or newer to comment on what options the OP can use to change multiple series in a box plot.

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    OP has a fairly simple macro-free file that causes Excel to burn 25% CPU when it is opened, and Excel becomes unresponsive. He attached a stripped-down version (blank template) that he says also freezes for him but doesn't give my any problem at all.

    He has gone through all the textbook troubleshooting, including uninstall/reinstall.

    Any ideas? https://www.excelforum.com/excel-gen...-workbook.html

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    Anyone interested in looking at: https://www.excelforum.com/excel-for...olumn-l-p.html

    At first glance it appeared to be a straightforward "lookup" type problem, but I simply don't see a solution.

    With reference to the post #18 attachment, the two yellow shaded areas are the source data and are used to generated columns L:P. There's a good set of expected results in columns R:V. Columns W:AA flag where the proposed solution deviates from the expected results.

    For me, it is so complicated to allocate stock under priority order.

    The OP really needs help ASAP.

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    I've lost the direction the OP is going here... https://www.excelforum.com/excel-gen...iply-rows.html
    They wanted to replicate cells 8 times and I gave them a formula for that.
    So I thought I got it through post #8 but then it appears they decided they decided they have some they want replicated 16 times and some 8 times (I think) and I don't know how to do that - have the index change in the middle then change back.

    Then I'm not sure what the second request is they want beginning in post #9. Maybe someone else can take it on and get them a solution.

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    Resolved. Issue was OP default set up in PQ.

    OP has an issue with Power Query. I have offered up a solution that works for me (running Excel 2019). OP is running 2010 and 2013 however, I am not sure which machine has the issue.

    Is this a possible compatibility issue when building parameter queries in different versions of Excel/PQ? If you have any experience in PQ and parameter queries, please take a look see.

    Cannot determine issue with OP's copy line in VBA. Tried to resolve with Union.Range but getting 1004 error message and cannot repair.

    Need some assistance on developing some VBA to help the OP rename cells. Look at Post #7

    Could someone whom is fluent in Power Query code take a look. I got this one started but ran into an issue which I could not resolve (please see my post in the thread).

    This is a salary data charting request. The requirements are non-trivial and not crystal clear (at least not to me).

    Anyone want to take a look?

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    The OP wants a gradient shaded X axis. I was able to create one fairly easily using the options in the Format axis dialog, but now the OP wants to be able to replicate some of this in VBA. The macro recorder tells me nothing about how to format an axis line the way the dialog allows, so I have no idea what to recommend.

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    I think this person needs a UDF to replace cell references with values and pasting the formula into the new cell as text. I can't see how to do it with formulas.

    Re: Call in the Cavalry - 2020

    Really interesting question being asked here...
    https://www.excelforum.com/excel-gen...ml#post5427731

    When I hold down the Ctrl key and left click a cell it darkens (as if fill shaded) and on further clicks on that same cell darkens even further to black.
    Anyone care to take a look and comment please?

    Hoping someone with knowledge of VBA could look as the OP is trying to conditionally color the worksheet tab.
