RE: data from many work books

jlat...@discussions.microsoft.com (JLatham) — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 13:11:02 UT

This can be done with VBA code (a macro). You haven't given enough
information to provide a more detailed answer, but there is one command
available that does allow you to browse and identify files to be worked with
that will probably end up in the code:
Application.GetOpenFilename
will return a filename from a dialog box, and then the code can open that

=SUMPRODUCT(--(a1:a100<>"O"),- -(B1:b100="CAT"),C1:C100)
This will sum (total) every C value whose corresponding B value is CAT and
corresponding A value is not O
=SUMPRODUCT(--(a1:a100<>"O"),- -(B1:b100="CAT"))
This will count how many B values are CAT with corresponding A values that
are not O

Move to B2, use command Window | Freeze Pane
Now as you scroll vertically or horizontally, row 1 and column A are always
visible
This is from Excel 2003 but I seem to recall doing the same in Excel 97

quite a few items listed
to count the cells that are NOT Equal to o
=COUNTIF(C9:C28,"<>"&"o")
I'm not sure how you are going to sum these values .. other than
replacing them with numbers
so something like
=IF(cell = "3-4", 3, "another IF for another value") and so on
the you can use
SUMIF

can you be more specific ....
However, assuming that you want to put the Value 1 to 5 in a cell where
another cell is grouped as percentages
try (I have assumed the cell is formated as %, hence decimal values)
=IF(D9=1,5,IF(D9>=0.75,4,IF(D9 >=0.5,3,IF(D9>=0.25,2,1))))

Hi Biff,
When I ran =ISNUMBER(c2) the result came up as TRUE. Here is a sample
of the data I am looking at. In column labeled 1 on the example you
can see at 18:13 timestamp the number is below 126 which would clear
the condition so anything before it would be what I want calculated.
the second column is showing the =ISNUMBER(C2) that you asked about.

data from many work books

sandee...@discussions.microsoft.com (Sandeep S.) — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 10:24:01 UT

How do I collect data from many workbooks from select columns into a single
workbook automatically. I don't want to open each one manually and copy and
paste from it to the main workbook. The system should ask me for which file
to be opened.
Please can you help.
Thanks and regards,

Percentages

Hi
I would like to use a scoring method in percentages which would recognise 1
to 5 as 0% - 100%. e.g 1= 0-24%, 2= 25-49%, 3= 50-74%, 4= 75-99% and 5= 100%,
thanking you in advance,

Freeze at the top & split the side in Excel97?

slickrcbdn...@gmail.com (SlickRCBD) — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 01:07:14 UT

Is it not possible to freeze the titles at the top of the screen
(always show row 1 at the top of the screen) AND then split the screen
so that I can view one column on the left side independantly of the
section I'm working on on the right side?
It seems that splitting the screen cancels the freeze command, and it

Thanks Dave,
I'm just now getting around to reading your memo.
I probably just set it up wrong.
I may have clicked on the "number" on the extreme left of the sheet instead
of an active cell.
I'll give it another try tomorrow and let you know how I come out.
Thanks again,
Doug

CountIF on two criteria

slickrcbdn...@gmail.com (SlickRCBD) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 23:57:07 UT

I'm trying to tabulate a survey using Office 97. ONE of the things I
need to tabulate is dependent on two critera. If the first column is
"O" (a text field, as the other entires are ranges), then I do not
want to count the value for the second field. Otherwise, I want a
total of all the fields in a second column with a given value where

barbreinha...@discussions.microsoft.com (Barb Reinhardt) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 20:37:01 UT

Why don't you try to copy te cell down one row or over one row. You'll see
B11 changing, but $C$4 doesn't change. It's absolute referencing.
