Sum in selected cell

[leaper1981]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone could help. I want to create a Macro that does the following:

I want to select any cell I have a figure in (say A1 has the number 3 in) and when I run the macro it does a sum related to that number, ie: number in cell (3 in this example) +10%, divided by 2, + .5 = (and the cell now shows the result.

So basically I want it to do a sum related to the value in any given cell. I can work out how to do the sum but I dont know how you tell a Macro to do that in whichever cell you currently have selected.

Can anyone help please?

Hi & welcome to MrExcel
How about

   With ActiveCell
      .Value = .Value * 1.1 / 2 + 0.5
   End With

Put into sheet code:

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
If Not Intersect(Target, [A1:A10]) Is Nothing Then        'set range as You need
    Target.Value = ((Target.Value * 1.1) / 2) + 0.5
End If
End Sub

Or this...

    Dim Results As String
    'Gets vaule from colume A.
    Results = Range("A" & ActiveCell.Row).Value
    Results = (Results + (Results * 0.1)) / 2 + 0.5
    
    'Post results in colume B.
    Range("B" & ActiveCell.Row).Value = Results

Or this...

    Dim Results As String
    'Gets vaule from colume A.
    Results = Range("A" & ActiveCell.Row).Value
    Results = (Results + (Results * 0.1)) / 2 + 0.5
    
    'Post results in colume B.
    Range("B" & ActiveCell.Row).Value = Results

Hi Guys,

Thanks for all your suggestions & sorry for my lack of understanding. This last one did exactly what I needed except it put the value in the cell next to it rather than over writing the value in the cell its working from (if that makes sense) I want it to replace the number.

This will put the result of the calculation in the active cell

Sub leaper1981()
   With ActiveCell
      .Value = .Value * 1.1 / 2 + 0.5
   End With
End Sub

Change the letter B to A should fixed the issue.

Dim Results As String
    'Gets value from column A.
    Results = Range("A" & ActiveCell.Row).Value
    Results = (Results + (Results * 0.1)) / 2 + 0.5
    
    'Override column A with the new results.
    Range("A" & ActiveCell.Row).Value = Results

@Trixterz
That assumes the activecell is in col A, which may not always be the case.

Scrap my previous request (sorry)

Just realised its harder than I thought due to the sum I need to do, didnt bother asking this as I thought it might be too difficult. Might make it easier to understand what I'm trying though.
The above is straight from the exel sheet i use. What I have to do is the following.
The hours are estimated originally & could be say 3 (as apposed to the 1.5 you can see as this has now been altered) How I end up at 1.5 is as follows
(order qty + 10%) / number up / 7000 = (1.178571428571429) I have then rounded it up to 1.5 (wouldn't require it to do that if not possible)

The problem I see here is the 'number up' Basically 2x1 would mean the figure I need to apply is 2, 1x1 would be 1, 2x2 would be 4 etc. Pretty sure Exel isnt going to be able to do that but possibly there is a way of getting it to ask you to enter the number up figure while it does the rest.

Not sure how easy this is to understand, I'm sure you guys would know what to do in a second if you were here lol If there is any chance of doing any of this but I havent given you enough info please let me know and I'll try to explain better.

Thanks again

Do you want to do this on the entire set, or just certain cells?
