I also teach this in my computer and study skills course. Students really like it. You are the only other person I've seen that knows this neat trick.
Thank you for the video. It's really usefull. It's nice to have the graph (the multiplied "I") directly side by side with the data at several situation (instead of making the diagram from excel).
You can see number 23 is in third place and four, 10,16,17, I would like to generate a list of positions for any number I choose, in this case for 23 the list will be 3,4,10,16,17, how is possible to do in excel 2003.
Pickover posed a problem at archery by the numbers. This is really a combinatorial problem -- given the 24 numbers taken 5 at a time, which unique combinations add up to 200 generate a list how to do this in excel 2003. help please.
I really apreciate if you can tell how using your example, I mean the same list of number, I need to substract each one among them and see the result in another column how can I do that
It's an awful trick... It not only makes your file considerably heavier, but it's easily replaceable by so many other ways that are quicker, simpler, and lighter... Ever heard of sort? Of course 2007 and over ruins this tricks even more. I hope viewers never adapt this, I would hate to have a nation of morons doing this in all their files...
I like it. It's not only about this trick. It is simply a nice exercise to learn and to understand some Excel commands. Thank's for that! :) It's smart. It's a smart trick, and a smart audience will appreciate it.
Yeah this stands if u have numbers like "1-99",but if u have numbers biggest than that like 4980,try than xD.U will get "I" list to the end of the world""

@Silverado31 Is there a way to sort them automatically without having to go back to Data---->Sort---->Extend All---->Sort by Value---->Total---->Descending---->OK, each time
To brainstorm a bit - this model shows all the attributes so that you can drill down immediately - if you have a graph, you have to find the '10' ten and then look at the data to find Adam - it's all in one place this way - consider adding additional attributes (columns) and sorting to see patterns - add conditional formatting - change format of bars to center to see what the data shows - add a second set of bars for other data and compare them - add filtering, etc.
@Silverado31 Using a key is quicker: Select the colom containing the data , press F11 and you're done. still it is a nice trick, especialy useable for plain text format purposes.
@excaliber2023l- lol ur right- loved the trick but i just thought about it - the charts would make more sense right and look more professional in a professional settting lol... but gotta give it to him, that was a cool trick if the charts did not exist.
Pretty neat. I have used 3 times now in excel 2003 (obviously dont need in for 2007). The only thing though is that i cant figure out a way for it to calculate right for decimals. any ideas. NEW TO YOUTUBE!! I HAVE 2 VIDEOS NOW, CHECK THEM OUT!!! JVLSTUDIOS
It depends on the application. If there is a set list of acceptable responses, you could use data validation and create a picklist so your users can choose the response that fits them best. That way you eliminate any possibility of unacceptable words.
If that wont work and you want a free text field where users can write whatever they want, the best thing I can recommend is conditional formatting. If the user uses an illegal word, you can black out text by shading the cell.
wow, this is absolutely WONDERFUL! Next lets get rid of the graphical user interface entirely and go to a more highly advanced text based interface where this high-tech method would be most useful.
Dont try the in cell graphing in MS Excel 2007, it's flawed. The Rept function works the best and like one person said, use ALT+219 for a better rendition.
Very nice use of the REPT function for those who don't have xL 2007 yet. Please post more creative tricks if you have any. Also, just an obvious modification of your tutorial for newbies...if your values are high (and the "I"s are running too long), you can divide your values: =REPT("I",A3/2) or "/3", or "/100" etc depending how high your values are.
Don't worry..you were as clear as a bell. I just misread your post late last night after a tall scotch. Sorry. But I did have fun using symbols (smiley face, musical note) in the REPT function. If you had a music store and wanted to use REPT to quickly view their comparative productivity, the musical note symbol would be good to use.
