Random Contractor Selection List
Hi, I would like to set up an automated random contractor list for tender purpose - is this possible? For example, I have Contractor 1 - Contractor 10, I would like to choose 2 contractors for each tender/quotation request randomly. Currently, it is done manually which is time consuming and could not ensure impartiality in selection - if I can setup the contractor rota to generate random selection, it would be wonderful. Please can anyone advise and help with the correct way to setup my excel sheet? Many thanksphuiyeeJan 17, 2026Occasional Reader17Views0likes2Commentsis it possible to capture HH:MM from the cell in text format DD-MM-YYYY HH:MM

Okay so I'm wondering if there is a way for excel to automatically advance to the next column when entering inventory data so if I need to make another entry on the same item I don't have to advance to the next cell myself. This would be helpful in streamlining inventory and making it foolproof when adding inventory to a specific item (without having to worry about deleting previously entered data). I'm hoping there is a way to do this so I can take a tablet when completing my inventory and avoid the old clipboard and paper.HarpoonsJan 16, 2026Occasional Reader32Views0likes2CommentsBank recon matching
Happy New Year everyone! Can someone please assist me with this to a matching exercise for a bank reconciliation. Tried to do XLOOKUP with REGEXTEST but no luck. Below is the link to the excel file. https://1drv.ms/x/c/80b0e5c8d40a83ef/IQAn2IxiOBDpSJBIIZCfPj3TAexy2EEPYT5VjpDkcpTzpB4?e=S4NEuoTot86Jan 16, 2026Copper Contributor90Views0likes3CommentsChange in return of AVERAGE function - Mac Excel
I was puzzled that a spreadsheet I use daily generated an error today that had not existed in earlier versions. Attempts to confirm the validity of the spreadsheet functions by running prior versions that had previously run error free resulted in the same error. Eventually, it seems that the operation of the AVERAGE function has been changed in an Excel program update that was installed yesterday. Previously, if an AVERAGE function addressed a range of empty cells, it would return a zero value. Now it is returning the error #DIV/0! This is strange because the AVERAGE function will now return zero if the addressed range contains zeros rather than just being empty. Not sure if Microsoft intended this change or if the change might also apply to other functions. In muy case, I'm able to change my spreadsheet to provide for this but it would have been nice to have some warning.Stuart_MillerJan 16, 2026Copper Contributor24Views0likes0CommentsDuplicate Values that are not exact match
Hello, I have an excel file with names I need to clean up. I started with using conditional formatting to highlight all duplicate values and deleted the duplicates. There are still duplicates in the file that don't share the exact name. For example, there's one cell called "Blackline Safety", and another called "Blackline Safety Corp". These are duplicates, but I don't know how to do it without looking manually. Is there any way to get excel to find the duplicates like that?
