is this even possible?

Hi Bowmanator
How is it going,
I "think" I got it this time, If you can't get it with the macro,
post back and I will post the link to the file.
Regards
John

Hi Bowmanator
This one looks good but check it good.
BTW, I would use Otto's macro if you've got it, because you won't have to worry
about all those formulas in the cells.
It's a cleaner approach.
I know VBA just enough to be dangerous!!! still learning.

I responded to your post where you asked about changing the code, and asked
you a question. Did you see that? Otto

Sorry, i totally missed your reply.

This is a long post showing the way i do it now.

right now my manual log looks nothing like what i'm trying to pull off with
this.
the way it looks if i want to keep using the example in my first post i'll
have to add yet another column incase
i run into a 3 split load.

right now all i do is take the production and break it down in to loads.

an example would be like this, going off the production log

Production log
Date Lot# Amount
2/8/10 123 450
2/9/10 124 200
2/10/10 125 1250
2/14/10 126 1580
2/15/10 127 500
2/16/10 128 3175

now going off the production log above my shipping log as of now looks like
this.

Shipping Log

Load # Date Lot # Amount
shipped
1 2/16/10 123 450
124 200
125 350
2 2/18/10 125 900
126 100
3 2/19/10 126 1000
4 2/21/10 126 480
5 127 500
128 20
6 2/22/10 128 1000
7 2/22/10 128 1000
8 2/22/10 128 1000
9 128 155

sorry for all the grief i'm causing, i think i'm making it more complicated
then necessary.
I'm just trying to come up with something that i can just type in one number
and it'll do the rest.

I'm not cometed to anything yet, so if you guys can come up with something
that's simple and sweet i'm all for it.

Thanks

PS. if this is to much trouble i understand, no hard feelings.

Whatever any of us come up with, if it's a macro, will simply be a set of
instructions telling Excel what to do in any given situation. That last
part "in any given situation" puts the onus on you. In short, this means
that you MUST clearly define what the different situations are and clearly
define what you want Excel to do in each situation. Things like "you enter
a number less than, equal to, greater than, some value, in some column"
(what column?) Remember that Excel is dumb and has no idea what you want
to happen in each different situation. So you need to decide what all the
possibilities are and what you want to happen for each. HTH Otto

sorry it took so long to respond, it's hard to type what i'm thinking.

i think i've covered all the bases but wrote it on the actual sheet i'm
using and would like to post it.

what program can i use to upload it here.

 

[Otto Moehrbach]

You shouldn't post it here. No one will read it. Instead send it to me via
email. My email is (e-mail address removed). Remove the "extra" from
this email. Identify yourself as Bowmanator so that I can look back at your
posts. Otto
