Hi all, I have two sets of data for bonus calculations. SET ONE is in multiple rows by employee, e.g. the annual pay from 1 Jan to 31 Mar. Then 1 Apr to 31 Dec - when their pay has changed from 1 Apr onwards. And then a count of the number of days per row. I use this count to calculate the annual bonus. SET TWO is any annual supplement paid, by calendar month, that I need to split by days relevant to their pay in SET ONE and add to their salary for that period. So how can i take the data in SET TWO, and split by the same time period in SET ONE - and cut the Supp Amount and add to the Supplement Row column, thus updating the Total Paid column? I have 2k employees to calculate e.g. ThanksBrirack77Jan 26, 2026Copper Contributor45Views0likes2Commentsis it possible to capture HH:MM from the cell in text format DD-MM-YYYY HH:MM

In our company we have created our own inhouse Excel style. I've made this into a template by merging the style with a new workbook and saved this as a .xtlx file. I've saved this in all the XLSTART folders I could find, but also in the custom template folder. This should be enough to be able to start up Excel and see all the cellstyles we have created. Unfortunately this doesn't work. When I open a new worksheet, the styles are not visible. I've troubleshooted with Copilot, and tried all it suggested, but nothing worked. I've restarted Excel and my computer, but that doesn't change anything. What am I doing wrong?AmberpxlenceJan 26, 2026Copper Contributor1.2KViews0likes7CommentsCannot delete a macro
Windows 10 desktop computer, Excel I recorded a macro, seems to have an error. Want to Delete it and try again. When I go into Macros, I see it listed and highlighted (it is the only one), try to click Delete, but get message : "Cannot edit a macro on a hidden workbook. Unhide the workbook using the Unhide command" Don't know what this means. I don't know of any hidden workbooks, never did anything to hide any workbook. Help for "unhide" says go to Home-->(Cells) Format-->Visibility-->Hide&Unhide, but when I go there, the entry for Unhide Sheet is grayed out. so cannot do that anyway. I just want to delete the macro I recorded before and try to record it again to get rid of whatever error it contains. This is a macro I intended to use in any Excel workbook and is listed as PERSONAL.XLSB!(name) and below the list of Macro names there is a box Macros in: All Open Workbooks It is the only macro listed, there are no others.BillDempsterJan 25, 2026Copper Contributor5.5KViews0likes12CommentsExcel "IF" function
I'm creating a spreadsheet for my golf club. We have special rules. One of them is that if a player has fewer than 30 Stableford points after a round, their handicap increases by 1 point. Can I do this with an "IF" function? And what would that look like? I have separate columns for stableford points and handicaps.HansExcelJan 25, 2026Copper Contributor77Views0likes3Comments
