Thanks for the offer, but I shouldn't need too many hands today.
And we've moved a ton of boxes the past couple days, so tomorrow shouldn't be bad either (just the heavy stuff).

Ugh! I need another car! That way I won't have to worry about busting the 8 and it being the daily driver.
I'm probably awful at autoX and/or on a track anyway.

Stupid money.

I can't do Auto Show. Dates are Feb 28- Mar 8. I'll be in El Salvador. AutoRama (whatever that is) is March 20-22.

Can't you go to Mexico some other time?

I need help with an excel spreadsheet function. If a cell contains the letters "OH" (for ohio), then cell =another cell.

I've got "=IF(U7282=OH, =J7282,"") But it's not working. Anybody know the correct semantics.

Doc; you're lucky you do something that actually ads value to society.

No one ever requests a meeting with human resources, and managing benefits doesn't really enhance anyone's life
... Plus I had to beg just to get time off to go to Germany and China (for my MBA) Stupid tether attaching me to my desk...

Jon has asked that everyone call him in the morning to verify if the move is a go. With the weather the way things are he wants to see what it is like before we all drive down there. He has no internet at the house and his cell phone does not allow him to read txt messages. Please call him.

Tnx John. Gotta search out ohio sales for sales tax. Getting too big to do manually.

How can I write it to say if U7282 contains "oh", instead of equals "oh"?

Doesn't' like that. Error message with "Ohio"

EDIT- Never mind, was just missing the " after oh above. Figured it out. Tnx

Will that work if there's other data in the cell, like city or zip code. Or only if only state data is present?

It will only trigger if the cell contains OH or Ohio...nothing else. Best bet is to go through the data and clean it up. Best way to do that would be to go to Tools >> Filter >> Auto Filter and find the weird data and correct it.

I sell on several different venues. Amazon, Ebay, My own site, Google.

Each venue provides data in a different format. Some provide the state as a separate entry, others combine city, state, zip in a single cell. I really can't remove the extraneous data, because I need that record. Unless you can suggest a way to.

I used to do this manually, but now have over 11,000 sales entries and growing! Too much to do manually.

I think that works!!! Now. the only false answer is if the city has "oh" in it somewhere. Any way to also highlight the cell so I can go back and verify data. (I know, I'm pushing it here) I really appreciate it!


BTW - I owe you a non-alcoholic umbrella drink!

Well I'm at my dad's now.
Obviously snow was HORRIBLE and I had to get the U-Haul today because they are closed tomorrow, will charge me a $50 fine for canceling, AND my utilities are being shut off Monday.
But with the Akron streets so horrible I drove the U-Haul to my dad's and he is going to bring it down tomorrow morning.
I have no choice but to move tomorrow, so hopefully the weather & roads are better.
Then to make matters worse, my snow blower started back-firing!
I replaced the spark plug because it was bad looking, but that didn't work.
So I took it to my dad's and we took it apart.
It runs better, but I'll need to take it apart again to tweak it more (which I can do in my new garage).

Anyway... if anyone still wants to help tomorrow, give me a call.
If its still bad out, I would rather you guys be safe and stay off the roads.
I'll be back online Monday night... so I'll talk to everyone then.
