Also, I cannot move the Pivot Table from the new Worksheet it is created in, to my existing Worksheet. I am running Excel 2011 for Mac. I have a Worksheet with a small amount of data, and when I click the Pivot Table button it automatically creates the Pivot Table in a new Worksheet. The Pivot Table data is fine, but I want it to display alongside the source data. I've tried using the Move Pivot Table option and choosing to Create Pivot Table in Existing Worksheet and choosing a source cell alongside my current data, but nothing appears. Also, I checked in Edit menu and found that the Pivot Table appears to have not even been created/moved because there is no option to undo it.
Appreciate any help, let me know if you have any further questions. I would like to copy a small table from Word into one cell in an Excel worksheet.
The first column of the table is a list of numbers. I tried converting the table into text with manual line breaks and tab stops to divide columns and rows, but that didn't solve my problem. Excel pastes the data into several rows. When I try to merge them, I get a warning that the selection contains multiple data values, and merging into one cell keeps the upper-left most data only. What I tried that didn't work:. Formatting the Excel cells as text before pasting the data.

The various options for 'Paste Special.' The closest I got was inserting the table as a Document Object, which could be a workaround, I guess. What I am saving for when all else fails:. The obvious solution of copying row by row into one Excel cell. The data in the table is information about my dad's medications. I would like to have reference charts of how to identify the strength of each tablet by its color and markings. I got the info from the manufacturers' websites and entered it into tables in Word, which I would like to copy into a more comprehensive file I am creating in Excel.
The first column of each table is the strength of the tablet, entered as 1 mg., 2 mg., etc. The subsequent columns describe the shape, color, and markings. There are 3 tables, each with about 4-5 rows. Is there a way to copy each one - whether as a table or as text - into a single Excel cell without losing data? Hey there, I have been tasked with introducing userforms into an excel sheet and tbh I'm quite amazed that excel has this capability of adding userforms to excel sheets. Anyway, I have 2 columns of data in an excel sheet and I wish to add this to a userform so that the userform displays the 2 columns beside each other with headings, like a table.
The user should then be able to select a particular row and insert it into the specified cell. I would also like the user to select a row on the table and then be able to bring up another table depending on the row selected.basically so that the user can draw deeper into the information that they require. I have an example excel sheet where I have 2 sheets. One sheet is the user entry sheet called User Entry Screen. The next sheet is the tables sheet where my tables are held. Once the user selects the cell shown in the example sheet, it should then bring up the user form. The user then, depending on which item clicked, then gets shown the next window with a table and info on it.
Then user should then be able to select an item and the cells on the user entry screen would then get populated. Personally I think this is a really tricky challenge and any help with doing this would be extremely appreciated.
I'll post up further comments as I am trying to work my way through it! I know this question has been asked a bajillion times, so I apologize for the redundancy. I am working with an Excel spreadsheet and saving it as a.csv file in order to upload to an application that parses out the.csv data as transactions. The system requires.csv files, so this is how I need to save my doc (with this extension).
I have been successful at preventing Excel from coverting that long number into scientific format. I have saved as a TXT file, pasted the longer number and it displays correctly. That is all good. But I have to save as a.csv. So if I do that, close the Excel window, and then open again (as the.csv file), the numbers are back to being displayed in scientific format. I have tried creating an Excel doc from scratch and entering text in Text format, to see if this created a cleaner file. But again, the second I save as.csv, close the window and then open that file up again, that dang scientific format is back.
Does anyone have any idea of how to work around this? Once I have successfully gotten the numbers to display as the long-chain number, how can I get them to 'stick' so that they don't revert back to scientific format when I reopen the file? Thanks so much for your help!
Hello, please help me out with this one. So I am at work workin on this report and I need a function that will make Excel automatically insert the today's date in a cell (let's say D90) when I fill the content of another cell (for example C90) and the that will be inserted will never change. I tried to use the =TODAY( ) function but it keeps updating the date in the cell to the current date if i reopen the worksheet 2 days later. I need the cell to keep in the cell the date of the day when I filled in the content of cell C90 and do not updated it every time i open the document to the actual date. Thanks in advance!! Hello, As the title goes this is as simple as it gets.
The macro worked good when I was using excel 2003 but now that I have 2007 everything works for except the resizing (Picture.Width & Picture. I have a file that became too big due to phantom bloat, unused range saved by Excel and all that kind of reasons.
Thank to previous posts on that board tackling that issue, I was able to find how to proceed to reduce the file back to its normal size. But I did so in a beta file (test file). The real file has become so big (103MB!) that Excel cannot even open it anymore! The file contains archive info that we do not have anywhere else. Is there anyway then to open the file or to reduce its size without opening it (through magics.)? I just honestly don't know how to retrieve that info before deleting that file. Thank you very much for your help.
Hi everyone, I found an excellent macro this morning that allows the user to filter a pivot table based on the value found in a specific cell. This cell essentially acts as a search bar, allowing the user to type in what they are looking for rather than select it from a drop-down list. The macro works perfectly for my purposes except in one regard: I can no longer perform a 'show all' filter. If I leave the 'search bar' cell blank, the pivot table shows nothing. I'm sure that there is an easy fix for this but I'm still learning the basics of how to write and use macros. How can I change the code so that when I leave the cell blank, the pivot table shows all? The search bar cell is D2.
Thanks for your time! I'm trying to open a pdf file from within excel vba. I have tried using the followhyperlink method but adobe acrobat opens very briefly then immediately closes Code: Sub OpenPDF 'Dim pdf As String On Error Resume Next 'pdf file to open pdf = 'K: PDF mypdf.pdf' 'open the pdf file ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink pdf End Sub So then I tried to create an instance of acrobat by setting a reference to the acrobat object but I can't get this to work either! The code I'm using is Code: Sub OpenPDF Dim pdf As AcroPDDoc Dim strPDF As String Set pdf = CreateObject('AcroExch.PDDoc') 'pdf file to open strPDF = 'K: PDF mypdf.pdf' 'open the pdf file pdf.Open strPDF End Sub Any ideas what could be wrong with either approach? I am new to Excel and I am creating fillable forms in excel which are protected so that users canonly input data in certain cells. I am using Excel 2003. The users told me that they do not want text to go beyond the edge of the page when they are inputting data.
They also want the words to wrap when they reach the end of the sentence. I am also using check boxes(yes/no) and Ifind it difficult to make the adjacent cells fillable only Thanks for your help and correct me if I am wrong as I am new to this board. Hello, I am pretty new to excel programming/messing around so I'll refer to those who are much wiser than I am. I am trying to set up a form for work, in this form I want to have a page with a bunch of cells pre-sized. What I want to do is when I insert a picture from a job site, that when this picture gets inserted, it will automatically resize to fit within the cell.
I don't have time to manually resize dozens of pictures and if I could get this to work it would be awesome! I tried to search for an answer using the search function, but I kept getting a fatal error about allowable memory? Thanks in advance for you help! Is it possible to apply a filter to multiple sheets within the same Excel workbook, using the same filter criteria? For example, suppose you have tables of data on 3 different tabs, all having the same headings.
Suppose one of the headings is 'gender'. If you apply a filter to the table on Sheet 1, to only show the rows containing the word 'female', is it possible to have the tables on Sheets 2 and 3 automatically update to only show the 'female' rows?
Or would you have to manually update the filter criteria in Sheets 2 and 3? I hope this makes sense. Thank you in advance for any help.
