View 3 RepliesI have a series of formulas in Row 1 across the columns in worksheet A. I would like to copy these formulas to a single column and down rows in worksheet B while retaining the references to worksheet A. I know that I can manually enter the references in worksheet B but that would take a long time to do.

I have a workbook that contains 50 worksheets named 1-50. I need to add more worksheets. all the formulas in the worksheets always refers to the previous worksheet.
How can i make a copy of the worksheet named 50, name it 51 and have all the formulas in worksheet 51 refer back to worksheet 50?
I have an excel file with column stating month and rows are phases ... for each Phases we add the revenue numbers by month and it does keep changes as and when scope changes. However, i am finding it difficult to capture the changes ... is there a way i can set the guidelines to ensure all historical data changes as and when any updates and it should store the historic inputs for consolidation ... i would like to be called as Baseline, Re-baseline1, Re-beseline2 like wise.

I am working with a workbook, which has links pointing to many other workbooks. Many a times, I need to open the source workbook to verify whether the source data is correct. It takes a long time to open the other files and locate the exact cell. Following is an example of the links in the workbook.
'W:CentralMMonitoringResearch[Dallas.xls]CONSUMERS'!AH13
Some cells are linked to the sheets in the same workbook. I know that I can use Excel's audit function, but I found that it doesn't work well when the formula referes to other workbooks. Therefore I want to design a macro, which will land me to source cells. The macro needs to analyse the link; open the workbook to which the link refers; and find the correct cell in that workbook. If the link refers to a worksheet in the same workbook, then it should not open that workbook again. I don't know, how to use a link like the one given above, and analyse it using VBA to decide whether it needs to open another workbook.
I want to stop the formula auditing from working in one workbook without having to change settings in excel, is this possible?

Column B2 has the first Audit Date (hard keyed), cell C2 has the second Audit Date (formula =+B2+182), cell D2 has the third Audit date (formula =+C2+182), etc. . . I would like the format of the Audit dates to flag the last audit date in the row red if it is prior to today's date (cell A1).
I have a workbook with 1000+ worksheets, all of which have 3-letter names. On a master sheet, I would like to make a query of how many non-empty cells there are on a subsidiary worksheet. This works:
Code:
=COUNTA(ABC!A:A)
What I'd like to do from time to time is input in column A a varying set of 3-letter worksheet names, say
AAB
ABC
CDE
And have a formula in column B that converts this to
=COUNTA(AAB!A:A)
=COUNTA(ABC!A:A)
=COUNTA(CDE!A:A)
I've learned that simply substituting the cell references A1, A2, A3 for AAB, ABC and CDE doesn't work. What do I need to do to achieve this?
I want to have a summary tab calculate figures of other tabs. For example in "Summary" tab, I want to Sum (a:a) for tab "January" =January!sum(a:a)

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have 2 cells which I will select on a work book; (say A1 and A2). A1 is the input cell and the formula and the result generated is in A2.
Suppose I input 3 in A1 and A2 shows 60, what I also want to do is input 60 in A2, which should show me 3 in A1, without destroying the formulas.
In short both cells will have formula and both cells will be input cells for each other.
I would like to drag down the formula from the last cell in Column A in reference to the last row in column B.
E.g My last data in Column A104 (code to select the last cell and this can vary from time to time the report is updated)
Column B has data till B142. I want to drag A104(contains formulas) down to A142.
Here is what I have but Selection Autofill doesn't work.
Range("A2").End(xlToRight).Select
Range("A2").End(xlDown).Select
Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("A3:A" & Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp).Row), Type:=xlFillDefault
In the attached example, I need to create a formula for cell I2 (Balance Remaining) that is driven off the most recent calculation (in this case, F68) but still allows for additional rows to be added to the ongoing list of orders. I believe I'm supposed to use an index formula but not sure how to write/apply it? I need to be able to add rows past 68 and still have Cell I2 (Balance Remaining) continue to calculate correctly.

In columnD I want to reference the "formula" and have it calculate based on the values in whatever row references the formula.
As it stands I can only get the formula to calculate within the same row.
I am working on a massive Pivot Table but in order to compile it I have to copy data from many worksheets into one. My problem is that each worksheet contains about 11,500 formulas with references to other workbooks and cells. However, none of these is locked for cell reference (meaning none has the $ sign for row or column) so copying and pasting obviously screws it up since the reference is changing but I need to have the links active in the pivot table.
It would obviously take me a year to add 440,000 individual $ signs. Is there any way, a trick of sorts, where I can just highlight the entire worksheet and add the $ sign to each and every cell reference automatically?
This may be an easy answer, but I haven't been able to figure it out. I have a cumulative page of formulas that reads "SHEET1!B8+SHEET!B9". I need the next row formula to reference "SHEET1!B47+SHEET1!B48", and then "SHEET1!B86+SHEET1!B87". Each row the formula moves 39 rows on sheet 1. Is there a way to get excel to automatically do this, so I don't have to go line by line?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm actually having difficulty with the sumproduct function, I'm trying to count items based on multiple criteria (and yes I have looked under that). I'm using a very helpful formula that I grabbed from this site. =SUMPRODUCT(1*(base!$B$1:$B$19465=locations!B$1),1*(base!$A$1:$A$19465=locations!$A6))
The problem that I have is that this doesn't work if I replace $B$1:$B$19465 with $B:$B. now as the number of rows on the base sheet may change, this means I need to change the formula each time I change the data on the base sheet which is somewhat ridiculous. I've been playing around with indirect trying to reference the last cell in a range, but I don't seem to be getting anywhere with that.
I want to be able to sort a table alphabetically by one column after adding a new row to the bottom. But there is another table that uses the values of the former table. How can this be done without screwing up the formulas in the second table.
View 5 Replies View RelatedHow do I change the code so that the macro looks up the next sheet (instead of by sheet number, which is how the code was recorded) and transfers data to the summary page until there are no more new sheets. See attached zip.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI need to reference the projected and actual expenses from the total on worksheet 'expenses' So i did so, however, if I change the drop down on the expenses worksheet to only display housing data, then the projected and actual expenses on my budget worksheet changes as well to the new data portrayed on the expenses worksheet.
I need to reference the cell, without it changing when I change the category display, but I need the cell to change accordingly if I enter new data in the overall tablet on the expenses worksheet.
Or do I need to create a seperate worksheet that has the data in and reference my cells on my budget worksheet to that new worksheet?
The spreadsheet works in Excel 2000 when you open it in any newer version it is corrupted. Which is fine so we are rewriting it in Excel 2010/2013.
We have data in columns A:E which comes from the refreshable query. Data in F:I are different formulas based on the data from the query. The number of rows we get will vary from query to query. The headers never change just the data. How can we make it so that when no matter the data length the formulas will always autofill up or down depending on the data length?
I'm preparing an accounting model for my office use. How to solve the copying of formula to all other cells.
The detail is here:
Sheet 1:
1) I've entered a number 1000 in L2
Sheet 2:
1) I've entered a values in columns D,E,F,G
2) Calculations :
at G2 : the formula is =D2*Sheet1!L2
The problem is when I Copy the formula in G2 through G3, G4, G5........... it changes to =D3*Sheet1!L3, =D4*ValidData!L4, =D5*ValidData!L5 and so on... but it should be =D3*Sheet1!L2, =D4*ValidData!L2, =D5*ValidData!L2, so that the L2 value shall be constant for calculations in all cells.
I have a 2 columns (A and B) next to each other that is using a Sum formula and other multiplying formulas. They reference 3 cells in a different column (C) to come up up with the answer for A and B. Therefore A1 and B1 reference C1 C2 and C3 (and possibly if want to use in future column D with D1 D2 D3).
Then in A2 and B2 I want to reference from C4, C5, C6
Then in A3 and A4 I want to reference from C7, C78, C9 etc.... and so on...
Instead of retyping formulas for each row in A and B, I want to copy down, but I getting the wrong answer when I do that.
I am therefore assuming I typing the formula wrong. How do I type it correctly so the cell reference changes automatically when I pull down columns A and B?
Formula for Column A: =SUM($G28:$G30)
Forumla for Column B: =($G28*$H28+$G29*$H29+$G30*$H30)/$B17
Therefore next row should be referenced from G31 to G33 and H31 to H33
But when I copy it only adjusts it for 1 reference down.
I have 2 sheets in a workbook where i would like cell G8 on sheet 1 to equal the value on A11 sheet 2 & G9 to equal A12 and so on down the sheet. The problem is that G8 are 3 merged cell so every time I try to use autofill the reference number jumps by 3. The formula in cell G8 is

For example, col A has 001, 001, 002, 003, 003, 003, 004, ...
I'm trying to create a report template with formulas that reference col A and return a single unique entry for each code so that the new column has only 001, 002, 003, 004.
Essentially, the codes reference customers. A customer can have multiple purchases -- but I'm trying to create a report in which I can utilize SumIf formulas to Sum the purchases for each customer and represent those purchases on a single line per customer code.
The catch is that the purchases change monthly (i.e., next month the purchases may be 001, 002, 002, 002, 004) so my report template needs to have the flexibility to adapt without me rewriting the SumIf formulas and return SumIf results for only customers 001, 002, 004. Whereas in the prior month, the report returned SumIf results for customers 001, 002, 003, 004.
starting to dabble in the VBA coding, now. I tried finding this solution...but nothing quite the same. I have a spreadsheet with a couple tabs. The main tab is a calculation worksheet that pulls in, and performs various calculations on, data from the other couple tabs. This main tab will be the only one that most of my users will see (query and other data tabs will be hidden.)
What this workbook does is calculate accruals for our consultants, at the end of every month (period.) I am trying to put in code that, when activated by a button, will copy the entire main ("Accrual Worksheet") tab as a new tab, at the end of the workbook....as a period backup to the calculations on the main tab.
I created the below
===========================================================
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Dim LastSheet As Integer
Dim aSht As Worksheet
Dim Test4 As String
Dim NameXists As Long
If MsgBox("Are You Sure You Wish to Finalize? This will copy sheet, without formulas, as backup.", vbYesNo, "Update Confirm") = vbNo Then
Exit Sub
Else
=============================================================
This seems to work great......EXCEPT (you knew one was coming), I only really want to copy the sheet as data/format only. I don't want the copy tab to have any VBA code, or formulas, on it. I just want a picture image of the "Accrual Worksheet", as reference to the activity for that period. In the following period, the same "Accrual Worksheet" will be used to work on the next month's activities.....and the data on that tab will change. So we need to store the final calculation, for further reference.
I have a macro that imports a text file. I then have summary sheets that reference to the sheets with the imported text file details. This is a task I complete every month.
The next month I delete the sheets with the imported text file details before importing current month's details. But when I do that it screws up my references.
Here's an example of a reference with previous months' imported text file details:
= SUM('X'!$I$1:$I$3000)/2+SUM('Y'!$I$1:$I$3000)/2
When I delete the sheets with the imported text file details and import current month's details, my reference suddenly looks like this:
=SUM(#REF!$I$1:$I$3000)/2+SUM(#REF!$I$1:$I$3000)/2
What can I do to prevent the summary sheet from messing up my original references?
I have a workbook with a worksheet called Summary that has formulas that refer to other worksheets (say A, B, and C) in the same workbook.
What I want to do (with VBA because I have to do this many times) is copy this Summary worksheet into several other workbooks, all of which also have their corresponding worksheets A, B, and C.
I do *not* want the copied Summary worksheet's formulas to refer to the old workbook. If I copy the worksheet by hand, this is what happens.
Instead I want the copied worksheet's formulas to reference the worksheets of the workbook they are now in.
I have a workbook with multiple sheets that contain formulas that I would like to copy to another workbook or new workbook with the same sheet names but without the formulas.
