Excel Tools for Network & Windows
Excel Tools for Network & Windows Some time ago I already shared an earlier version of this project. Since then, I have added several new features. These tools are based on functionalities that already exist in Windows and its associated software. I have consolidated them into a single Excel-based interface, allowing all tools to be executed directly from Excel. The files are free for private use. For business or enterprise environments, a more comprehensive toolbox can be developed, enabling direct support, repair, management, monitoring, and control of users and systems. Everything can be customized according to specific requirements — the scope depends solely on the desired functionality, time investment, and budget. I appreciate any positive feedback, suggestions, or constructive tips. If this project is not of interest to you, please feel free to ignore it. Thank you, and I wish everyone happy holidays.
Name Manager using for create name which is contain atleast two name.
Hello. I creating somthing in excel with tables. These tables has thier own name, and can be dynamic or not. Any way. I using list in cell to select each data from a tables column. For that I created names with the content of a column. Unfortunatly i had to make a kind of name which is contain atleast 2 columns. These can grow dynamicly. So I think a plus helper tabel is not the right sollution for that. I think about 3 kind of solution. 1. =UNIQUE( VSTACK( INDEX(Tabla1[#Data];0;MATCH("Type_name";Tabla1[#Headers];0)); INDEX(Tabla2[#Data];0;MATCH("Column_name";Tabla2[#Headers];0)) ) output #name? 2. =UNIQUE(VSTACK(Lista_A; Lista_B)) lista_A as a name output #name? 3. created a helper table with the existing names. Created another name and use the table in it. output was the elements contained by the helper tabel, and the lista_A and lista_B tables each dedicated column. So How can i create list for a cell or cells from two column which are dynamicly growing, without a user needs to touch the core modell? Best Balázs
Finding time duration between a start date & time with end date & time
Hi all! I'm looking for any formula or power query to calculate a total time duration within a day, given the start date, start time, end date, end time. Most of the dates will equal the same but there are some with the end date being the next day. I'd like to be able to exclude any overlaps as well. Currently, I have a large embedded IF formula: =IF(AND($G4=$O4,$H4<$H5,$P4>=$H5,$P4<$P5,$H4<$H3),$P4-$H4,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$G4>$G3,$H4<$H3,$P4<$P3,$H4<$P3,$P4<$P5),$P4-$H4,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$H4>$H3,$H4>=$P3,$P4>$P3),$P4-$H4,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$H4=$P4),0,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$H4<$P3,$P4<=$P3),0,IF(AND($G4<$O4,$H4<$P3,$P4>$H4),($P4+1)-$P3,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$O4<$G5,$O4<$O5,$H4<$P3,$P4>$P3),$P4-$P3,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$G4>$G3,$H4>$H3,$P4>$P3,$H4>$P3),$P4-$H4,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$G4<$O5,$P4>$P3,$P4>$H5,$H4>$H3,$H4<$H5),0,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$O4=$G5,$H4<$P3,$P4>$H5,$P4>$P3,$P4>$P5,$P2>$P3),$P4-$P2,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$H4<$P3,$P4>$P3,$P4>$P5),$P4-$P3,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$H4<$P3,$P4>$P3,$H4<$H5,$P4<$P5),$P4-$P3,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$H4<$H5,$H4<$P3,$P4>$P3,$P4>$P5),$P4-$P3,IF(AND($G4=$O4,$O4=$G5,$H4<$P3,$P4>$H5,$P4>$P3),$P4-$P2,IF(AND(ISBLANK($O4),ISBLANK($P4)),0,IF(AND($G4<$O4,$H4<$P3,$P4<$H4),($P4+1)-$P3)))))))))))))))) This seems to work for the most part but there are a few that I just can't get. I also pulled up my query and started to enter in the time durations manually and it couldnt come up with anything automatic for me. There must be an easier way for me to do this other than trying to create an IF formula for each answer that turns up incorrect. I have a screen shot below.Data Pulling
I'm trying to figure out the best way to pull data together from multiple tabs within an excel file. The file is made so that it can track issues within reports that are discovered. I'll try to break it down the best I can to explain what I have and what I'm trying to do. Within the file there are 5 tabs that are considered locations and they are named: LX, LV, CR, HR, FL Each tab is set up the same way with the only real important information in these columns of a table Column A - PCR Date Column C - PCR Owner Column G, I, K, M - Modification Category (1-4) these fields are actually drop down options from the Category Master List Within the file there is a 6th tab that has at able in it that is called Category Master List. Column A - Options for the dropdown in the above tab Modification Category columns Column B - Breakdown into one of three main categories (Billing, Compliance, Quality) Now this is what I'm trying to do: Fiscal Year Data (September 2025-August 2026) - I need to see how many times each of the dropdown options within the Master List show up in column G, I, K, M for each of the 5 location tabs. Monthly Data - I need to see how many times each of the dropdown options within the Master List show up in column G, I, K, M for each of the 5 location tabs along with how many times there is an entry with a date within that month. I would like to try and figure out how to put everything into one data table/chart type thing so it's easier to see and compare. Currently, everything needed is across a few different pivot tables and I would really like the data to pull itself automatically instead of me having to go in and copy all the data from one spot into another just to get the pivot results. Below is what I'm having to look at currently.
Power Query - SKU Generator
Hi, I am using MacBook Excel Version 16.102.2 I am trying to build a Power Query - that build out a SKU (e.g Column H). Based on the products I've entered in Column E and the Size Range chosen in Column F. I've managed to build a power query - but when I refresh nothing happens / updates. Some screenshots attached of my workings.
Hide Sheet after missusing shortcut Alt+H+W
I was working on an inventory and frequently using the shortcut mentioned above. Unfortunately, during one of those times, I must have misused it, and my sheet became hidden. Since then, I’ve tried multiple methods to unhide it, but none have worked. I would really appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue.
Administrator permissions
I am trying to save an edited spreadsheet, but Excel will not let me do this as it has opened the file as Read Only, and it tells me I need administrator permission. I can save the file on the desktop, but not in the folder I want (And if I then copy the file into the correct place it reverts to Read Only). Firstly I did not open the file as Read only. Secondly, when I checked in settings I am described as administrator! I have just installed Excel on a brand new PC, running Windows 11.Trouble inserting rows
I am receiving an error message while right clicking and attempting to insert rows above and below. The error message reads, "This operation is not allowed. The operation is attempting to shift cels in a table on your worksheet." No other users are currently signed onto the worksheet. How can I resolve this?
