In some cases it is useful to know the address of the first empty cell in a column. This is a way to do this without macros. Write the following formula and press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER. Excel adds braces { } and saves it as array formula.

Excel does not support conditional formatting in charts, but we can solve it with a little trick. Original data will be split into a new table and then will be displayed by Stacked Column chart. The result will look like conditional formatting.
Let us have following data table. We want to highlight a column in chart having a value less than 20.
Simple chart for this table looks like this:

In this example we have data from some water pump. We were observed 2 variables (kW and water volume). So there are two data series measured in time, but in different time intervals. First measurement started at 10:00 and continued at 5 minute intervals (left table). Second measurement started at 10:13:30 and continued at half minute intervals (right table). We want Excel to show relationship between these two data series in one chart.

There are some stuff dealers. In the following table is list of their sales. We need to know, how many sales they made from the beginning of the year. But there is a problem, we need to know sum to the date in each record for the dealer. For example: Jack Smith sold 1 piece on 2011/01/07 and then 3 pieces on 2011/01/19. So total to 2011/01/07 is 1, but total to 2011/01/19 is 4 (1+3).
Question is how to create running total for each dealer in the table. Continue reading “Running total for multiple items solved by array formula” »
I prepared two ways to solve this problem. The first uses values in a new column and the second uses array formula. Both have their advantages.
