Re: What does =B11*$C$4 mean?

(Gord Dibben) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 20:01:30 UT

The $ signs make a cell reference Absolute so it does not change as you copy
the formula.
=B11*$C$4 will increment as =B12*$C$4 as you drag/copy down the column.
The B11 will increment and $C$4 will remain fixed.
See help on absolute and relative cell references.

What does =B11*$C$4 mean?

del...@gte.net (David Deley) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 19:52:37 UT

=B11*$C$4
I get the cell value equals cell B11 times——then what's the $ mean,
$C$4? I think it means use the value in cell C4, but what do the $ mean?

If this data is imported from another application is the date/time stamp a
true Excel date/time?
If C2 is a date/time stamp what is the result of this formula:
=ISNUMBER(C2)
Can you post a small example of your data with the expected result? Don't
really need the Device/SubDevice data. Just the date/time and the X/Y data

Re: Mark Rows for scrolling

peter...@verizonxspam.net (Dave Peterson) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 01:39:39 UT

I'm not sure what mark means here, but freeze panes will freeze rows above the
activecell and to the left of the activecell.
So if you meant that you selected rows 1:4, then it would only matter what cell
was the activecell. If that activecell is in row 4, then rows 1:3 would be
frozen.
(You can select a multicell range and tab through that selection to experiment.)

Mark Rows for scrolling

dnmcnnos...@comcast.net (Doug Mc) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 00:30:50 UT

This seems weird!
I mark row 4 and row 1 and click on Freeze Panes.
Rows 1-3 become frozen.
There's also a black line below Row 6 that acts like another Freeze (Rows
4-6!)
Does anybody have an answer to this?
Thanks,
Doug

Re: import file so that it is a actual csv file, no excel cell version

dei...@consumerdotorg (Bernie Deitrick) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 21:09:22 UT

Burt,
Try changing the file extension from .csv to .txt before using Excel's file
open command. That should take you through a dialog.

Re: Is there an excel template for coupon organization?

(Gord Dibben) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 19:48:27 UT

I see nothing specific at the Office Template Gallery but a 'net search for
"coupon database excel" turned up a few.
Download a sample workbook from here.

katinsunla...@discussions.microsoft.com (katinsunlakes) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 19:26:01 UT

I would like to create a workbook in excel to record and store info on all
types of coupons that can be sorted by date of expiry, ingredient, store
offering etc. I figure that this has probably already been done and that a
template should be available but so far I can't find one. Does anyone know

Re: 52 Work sheets (Tabs)

(Gord Dibben) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 19:25:43 UT

Is the Template sheet within the workbook?
What type of changes need to be made to Template sheet that would ripple
through the 52 week sheets?
Probably the easiest method is...................
Manually you can select Template sheet first then Shift + click on last
sheet to group all 53 sheets.
Make changes to Template sheet and will be done to all sheets in the group.

Re: sum to = 1 for each cell

Re: sum to = 1 for each cell

dei...@consumerdotorg (Bernie Deitrick) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 19:11:03 UT

Mike,
Sorry, that just isn't clear. Perhaps a formula
=SUM(A1:A37)/A1
where A1 to A37 have your number 997?
