Answering Math Formulas In Different Cell
May 5, 2012
Let's say in cell A1 I have something like "10-25" or "4+4". I want to keep A1 just like that, but I would like to solve the arithmetic in A1, in cell B1. So B1 would need a formula that gives the answer "-15" or "8". How can I do this with large data sets?

I have written a macro which opens a worksheet, performs various operations on it, and closes it again. The problem is that upon close, two separate dialogue boxes appear - one asking me if I want to save, the other asking me if I want to keep what I have copied in the clipboard.
Is there a way of answering these dialogue boxes (or suppressing them) from withint he macro, so I do not need to manually click on Yes or No each time the macro is run?

Assume A1=25 and A2 = 35.
I typed, in cell A3: =A1+A2 which returns: 60.
Is there a way to present, in a single cell, instead of the formula references - something like: =25+35 as TEXT ?
(Any change in A1 and/or A2 will be reflected in the presentation of those two values
I checked some add-ins functions, like "MoreFunc" etc, and INDIRECT - but no results.

I am using a lot of linked reports that have to be rewritten each month. For example smaller formulas look like this:
=('S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$228*2)+'S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$262+'S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$292
What I want to do is extract the file path from the above formula and make it a composite of several cell references.
So what I need is to have a cell where they can change the month and another where we can change the year. So I set up several named cells that look like this:
_MONTH =11 November
_YEAR =2013
_JOBCARD ='S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING
_PATH =_JOBCARD & _YEAR &"" &_MONTH
I tried several versions, I am hoping for something like this:
=('_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$228*2)+'_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$262+'_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$292

i am trying to make an excel sheet that does calculations to help drydock a submarine....
docking math is used and it works as follows:
6-11-7
6-11-7+
6-11-7++
6 is feet
11 is inches
7 is 1/8ths
+'s are 1/16ths
so i want to be able to have a list of set measurements like above and then have one set measurement be subtracted from the list. like
12-4-6+
13-5-4
14-2-4
and have 6-2-5+ be subtracted from all of the above and be displayed on a second page. I have slammed my head against the wall for about 3 days now and i am a excel newbie. so if i messed up somewhere or anyone could help i would greatly be appreciate it.

I am trying to create a macro that will do some basic math using J, I as referencing.
Sub Table()
Dim Temp
J = 2
I = 1
For Temp = 1 To Question
Cells(J + 35, I).Formula = (Cells(J, I + 2) + Cells(J, I + 2) * Cells(J, I + 3) - Cells(J, I + 4))
J = J + 1
Next
End Sub
how do I get the math to work without the R1C1 referencing?

Trying to compute annual change I've always used the formula "(b1-a1)/a1" - where b1 is the current year, a1 is the prior year. I've been asked to compute average annual change over a number of years and thought simply by using the above for each year and then taking the average of all these, I'd be ok. I recently found a formula as follows: "(y2/y1)^(1/n)-1", where y2 is current year, y1 is 1st year I have data, n = the number of changes.

How do I correct to make conditonal formula with number values ?
My main worksheet has at leat 24 columns and as many as 30 rows, all have
numbered values. Rows are defined names.
I want to get average values when at least 2 conditions have certain values.
I tried =SUM(IF(AND(MapKpa:MapKpa=40),(RPM:RPM=1000),grmcyc:grmcyc))
and answer given is really total of all 30,000 row values for grmcyc and not
when mapkpa values = 40 and RPM = 1000.
Also best would be if the conditions allow lets say when Mapkpa is between
40 and 45 and RPMs between 1000 and 1500 to have a window of grmcyc average
I used Sum but really want an average of grmcyc when Mapkpa and RPM meet the
conditions so I can build a results table of what the grmcyc average value
was from 20 to 105 KPA in 5 KPA windows along with smaller RPM ranges.

I have a spreadsheet acting as a check register. In looking through the over 2300 entries, I am getting "odd" rounding issues. I have attached a small piece of the worksheet to demonstrate this quirkiness. As you can see, I am adding numbers out to two decimal places (which should result in two decimal place answers). The result for 11/11/2002 has become a more complex number. And, the result for 11/14/2002 goes back to two decimal places.
I have upgraded my office suite since 2002. Could that be an issue? I prefer not to have to "force" the rounding =round(result,2) to solve the problem.

I have a user that wants me to calculate a value for x. The user will input the variables a and b into this equation: b/a = .0231x * EXP(.0439*x). The user insists that the solution to this problem must be arrived iteratively, honing in on the correct answer. Is that right? It looks to me that surely there is a way to solve this mathematically.

I am looking for the easiest way for my worksheet to perform the following:
My 1st sheet (Sheet1) has columns A-C
In Column "A" there is a Cust # call it "P200"
In column "B" I have an invoice amount of $500.00
In column "C" -In this case, I need this field to calculate 15% of the amount in column "B"....and return the result of $75.00 (however, this 15% figure will vary based on data looked up in (Sheet2)
ie... in (Sheet2)
Column "A" will list all cust #'s that my company has - A1=P100, A2=P105, A3=P125, A4=P127, A5=P200 etc....
Column "B" has each respective discount amount for that customer by %... B1=10%, B2=10%, B3=12%, B4=20%, B5=15%
So the macro I need for (Sheet1- column C) will need to search "Sheet2" column "A" to find the "P200" out of the long list and then take the corresponding % amount in column "B" (in this case it's 15%) and use this figure in (Sheet 1) to perform the calc.

Given a list of numbers and a list of 'allowable' operators, come up with a specific total. ("The numbers game" on countdown on BBC2.... ooooh Carol Voderman)
For example, given the numbers 1, 3, 4 and 5 with valid operators +, -, /, * come up with a solution equal to 15. All numbers must be used once only. Use operators as often as required. The specific example above was given to me and I personally think its not solvable (might be a practical joke). But I am wondering is it possible to prove this through assertions or develop an algorithm to solve such puzzles. I can get 14 and 16, but not 15....

attempting to utilize the powers of Excel to generate a math worksheet for my children. I have no experience with macros and I have only used the basic functions and formulae.
Basically I need assistance in designing a worksheet where I can input the number of problems I want displayed, the type of problems (add or minus), and the number ranges for the values. With a subtraction problem, I want the formula to make certain the top number is not lower than the bottom number. Also, I would prefer that the worksheet maker does not generate duplicate problems. Once generated, I have the option to print the results for the kids to take with them or sit on the computer and enter the values - whereby Excel will instantly turn color the answer cell green for a correct answer, and red for an incorrect answer.

I am trying to put together a basic sheet with what I think is basic math, however, the multiplication does not seem to be working properly.
Field 1 is land value, field 2 is total acres. The math I have in field 3 is to give me a value per acre. Here is that formula: =Sum(B3/C3)
I have set the field to a number field with two decimal places.
Field 4 is Total Dry Acres field 4 is calculated to give total value for dry acres (here is where I am having problems) Here is the formula: =Sum(D3*E3)
Here are the numbers: Field 1 = 218702 Field 2: 1536.51 Field 3 (calculated): 142.34 Field 4: 1171.75 Field 5: 166791.54
It all looks good on the spreadsheet, however the field 5 number is not correct.
Break it out on a calculator: 218702 / 1536.51 = 142.34 (rounded)
Now 142.34 * 1171.81 = 166795.44
so working on the calculator, there is a difference of 3.69 between the two.

I have 6 textboxes. 3 of them for data entry and 3 of them for calculating from the other three.
I am not looking to work of any worksheet, it must be done in the user form.

I am having an issue with Excel not adding three numbers correctly.
C10 = .82
C11 = .18
C12 = .70
C14 = Sum(C10:C12)
I also tried C10 + C11 + C12
Excel keeps telling me the answer is 1.69!

I have Three different combinations which are in cell A & B, These combinations are with similar signs as in A1=2- & B1 = 2- (& A1 = 2+, B1=2+). Then I have numbers with no signs which A1 =2 B1= 2. My approach is to limit to these and these combinations only and use a formula which is uniformally applied on these combination. I want A1 and B1 to take only like signs like -- or ++ or without any sign. The rest shd be ignored. IS there a way of sorting two columns which have different combinations liek -- or ++ or -+ into a area where u can apply a particular formula? Hence first i take a number and move signs on the left and then apply this
IF A7 = 2- . B7 = 3- THEN
IF(OR(RIGHT(TRIM(B7),1)="-",RIGHT(TRIM(B7),1)=" ",RIGHT(TRIM(B7),1)="+"),LEFT(TRIM(B7),LEN(TRIM(B7))-1)*3,B7*3)

We make many graphs using XYscatter charts with lots of data points using Excel 2003 with the horizontal scale properly scaled as frequency. I have been asked to label that axis in some way as period (=1/frequency) without changing the scaling for the data plot. Is there a suitable way to do this? It would be OK to just change the axis numbers to 1/frequency computed from them automatically. Is Excel 2010 any easier for this?

I've found a few macros that will automate changing cell references from absolute to relative and they work great. However, when I run the macros on formulas that have references to another worksheet or workbook, the macro will not work correctly.

I'm trying to automate creating certain keyword combinations I need, based off of the values I input into reference cells in columns A - E; the goal is to compile a list of keywords which I will then use to track my rankings in search engines.
I'm looking to only output 500 keywords, so some of the cells in columns A, B, C & E will not contain data (column D will always have a primary Geo-target listed). This results in some of the concatenate formulas I've created outputting partial data (i.e. if there is no data in cell A10, and cell D2 contains the word "Knoxville", then cell I10 will output the data, "Knoxville "). How can I setup conditioning formatting or a formula so that these auto-generated cells appear blank if one of the reference cells has no data within it?The reason why I need the above to work is because I want to setup a formula that automatically counts the # of keyword combinations created by the data entered into any of the reference cells. With the partial combinations being listed, it skews my data. Which leads me to my next question: what is the best formula for counting the # of cells containing a full keyword combination from any of the cells listed in columns G - O (minus the data in the header cells; i.e. G1, H1, etc...)?Lastly, is there a formula I could use that would then aggregate all of the full keyword combinations within the "Complete Keyword List" column (column P)?

I am running Excel 2007 on Windows Vista Business 32 bit. Recently I have noticed that if I enter a formula into an empty, unsused cell, it is recognized as a formula. If I modify that formula, it is then recognized as text and does not work as a formula. The only way I can get the cell to recognize a formula is to delete the cell and start over. This same scenario does not occur on previously stored workbooks. I have checked all of the flags that I know about, including the Options function.

So i was asked to do a spreadsheet for "counting" electrical items from a project. For instance, quantity of cables, cable trays, electrical equipment, etc.
One of the sheets is called "Cables" and is structured in a database form, i mean, the first row contains the name of the columns (fields) and from the second row will be the records (much like a table in Excel).
One of this columns has to be calculated, for example, Qty (B3) * Measured (C3) = Subtotal (D3). If i put the formula in the whole column filling D:D the size of the excel file grows up to 10 mbs. So to keep the size small, I want Excel to introduce this formula only if it can find a value in Qty (B3).
Is liking adding records in Access, the table should grow with each row completed. We cannot use access, it has to be something the team can handle (they know a bit of Word and Excel, nothing else).
