Auto Updating Range Reference In Vlookup Macro
Feb 20, 2008
I have the following macro which runs vlookups between two sheets in excel. Whenever i add columns to the range the vlookup column reference is not the correct cell. Is their any way I can adjust the macro so that the column number adjusts in the formula when a new column is added??
Sub template()
Range("C7").Select
ActiveCell.Formula = "=if(VLOOKUP(C6,'Project master'!B7:BG150,3, FALSE)="""", """",VLOOKUP(C6,'Project master'!B7:BG150,3, FALSE))"
'category
Range("c9").Select
ActiveCell.Formula = "=if(VLOOKUP(C6,'Project master'!B7:BG150,4, FALSE)= """", """",VLOOKUP(C6,'Project master'!B7:BG150,4, FALSE))"
'sub-category
Range("c10").Select...................

Have been trying to set a chart here to autoupdate which normally is fine to do. In this case however there are other columns in the data table that run down to Dec 2014. Even if i define my needed range, the graph will show the full timeframe (with lots of unneccessary space).
I've attached an example. Rate % is the column that will be updated monthly and I would like the graph to only increment along when a new figue is entered here. I've defined this range as 'Rate' within the sheet.

There is a formula
=vlookup(a1,Named_Range,2,false)
if I change a value in the range named "Named_Range" this vlookup does not update.
This formula works but does not allow for any updates. Meaning the vlookup returns the original value even after a cell has been changed. "Named_Range" is on a different sheet but in the same workbook.
Auto calculate is on. I have recalculated the cell manually. I have Office 2010

I just started learning VBA and I can't figure out how to create a macro that will update my date range. I need it to automatically add the next date in the next blank cell so it would be like this:
1/1/13 1/2/13 1/3/13 1/4/13
Here is an outline of my work book: GANTT4-1.xlsm
Id like a date to be added if the maximum date in row 6 is exceeded by a date in column k.

Is there anyone who can suggest a solution to my problem below ?
Basically, what I need is a macro which would ideally work like this:
if D32 = 1, then the background colour of D4 should be red
if D32 = 2, then the background colour of D4 should be orange
if D32 = 3, then the background colour of D4 should be yellow
if D32 = 4, then the background colour of D4 should be green
And then I plan to use it for columns E, F, G

I have a workbook where one tab contains the data that I am given:
Project-A data1 data2 date1 date2 date3
Project-B data1 data2 date1 date2 date3
Project-C data1 data2 date1 date2 date3
Project-D data1 data2 date1 date2 date3
In another tab, I have a report where a row containd the project name, and I want to find the maximum value of the dates in the ither tab, where my project name matches the project name on the tab data I am given.
So, if I have "Project-C", I need to know the max of the dates in the row for Project-C; but I dont know what row that will be on in the other tab. For info such as 'data1' I have been simply using vlookup using the project name as a key.

I need to run a vlookup to find some data. But I have a lot of data about 600,000 lines. Currently this list is spread over several columns (as the limit is something like 50000). How can I make my reference range access multiple columns?

I am trying to use VB to vlookup between to workbooks
1. Make active workbook WBK1
2. Make workbook being open WBK2
3. Copy and Paste between WBK1 and WBK2
4. Have a vlookup in WBK1 and bring in the values from WBK2
5. Close WKB2
6. Copy, Paste, and transpose values in wkb1 within wkb1
The script works fine until it reaches the vlookup step. I have used the vlookup by itself without the copy and paste code successfully but when I combine the two it provides me with the error 9. Subscript out of range.

I have 2 drop down menus based on car make and model.
The first contains Make and the second contains the models of that make using the indirect function (All through data validation (this may be my problem))
Now what I'm wanting is that when the Make changes, the Model will automatically changes to either the top (or any really) model from the list for that make or to change to blank. So can this be done without VBA?

It's some code I found and altered that automatically updates the cell to the right of a column that has drop down box data validation, creating a list of the selected values seperated by commas. The thing is, I only want it to do this in columns 8 and 10 but data validation drop-down boxes have been used in several other columns. I've tried various methods of limiting the scope, the latest being the line: If Target.Column = 8 Or 10 Then. But the auto update is still being applied to all drop down boxes in the sheet. So, how can I make sure the auto update only happens when the drop down boxes in columns 8 and 10, updating into columns 9 and 11.

Everytime that I insert a row into a worksheet which a number of formulae refer to, those formulae get updated automatically in such a way that it is not in my favour.
The formulae refer to rows 2:2000 on a number of different columns. Adding a new row shifts the references to 3:2001. I presume that I can stop this from happening
Example:
= SUMPRODUCT(('List of DD Donors'!E2:E2000)*('List of DD Donors'!F2:F2000='DD Tally'!E6)*IF(DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G2:G2000)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")>12,12,DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G2:G2000)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")))
changes to...
=SUMPRODUCT(('List of DD Donors'!E3:E2001)*('List of DD Donors'!F3:F2001='DD Tally'!E6)*IF(DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G3:G2001)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")>12,12,DATEDIF(('List of DD Donors'!G3:G2001)-1,DATE(2006,3,31),"m")))

What I am wanting to do is have excel insert a static date automatically. I know ctrl + : inserts date and ctrl shft + ; inserts time. I want excel to do this automatically. The now() and today() functions auto update the date. I dont want the date auto updated when the file is reopened after it is saved. The file is a template so I guess what I am really wanting is a automatic date/time stamp when the user saves the file so when it is emailed and reopened the date does not auto update.

So, I work in a large indoor grow facility, and as such, we need to keep an active, updated calendar of all activities that will need to happen in the grow. If something happens to a set of plants, we need to change to date of transplant into the next pot size and every transplant after that, as well as moves into the flowering room from the vegetative room.
I have tried to manually make a calendar (I'm not worried about auto-generating a calendar or auto-filling dates, only things that happen on those days.) and tie in this information, but I'm having issues automatically searching a column and finding the date, and then pulling more information from that row automatically. (i.e. If anything in Column E has the date 7/3/14, then fill the data from Column C and Column B on the same row.)
I'm attaching a copy of the spreadsheet that I am trying to pull the Data from, and a copy of the Calendar I mocked up.
FYI, the spreadsheet I am pulling from Automatically fills once you put in the Clone Date, and then if you add in an adjusted date, it will adjust all later dates from that same section.
I tried to find something other than Excel as well to do this for me, but AFAIK nothing exists to make the calendar update Live, only to reproduce a new calendar with the current spreadsheet. This is not an option, I need it to stay up to date.

I have fought with this for 2 days and I am trying to have a worksheet cell update the date and time if the cell it is referencing (B3 see below)
Here is the formula I am using however it updates every time a new row is added to the worksheet. So the Date/Time stamp on each row is always updated to NOW() everytime.
=IF(ISNA(B3),"0/0/00 00:00",NOW())
I would like to have a Date/Time stamp stay as is once that row has been added. Is there anyway to stop the field from updating once the date and time have been set?

It seemed to be working OK for the first hour I had my sheet open. I then noticed that a variation of the following Sub would not update unless I clicked somewhere else in the sheet or edited another non-included cell. It's like something is holding up Excel from running this function and updating the cells if b2 is greater than a3 then a3 will not update to = b2 immediately.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If [b2] > [a3] Then [a3] = [b2]
End Sub
My data in column B is formula derived and that formula contains data that is live updated data brought in from DDE link.
My question is, should I setup this formula as part of a macro, instead of workbook code and attach an Application.Ontime function to ensure reliable execution? Could too many IF statements cause delays (about 100 of them currently in the code Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range))?

if it is possible te refer to a cell in another worksheet.
I have 10 worksheets in sheet one I put in cel A4 a digit en sheet 2 I put the formula that refers to sheet 1 cel A4.
Now I want a formula that refers to sheet -1 so in sheet 3 the formula automatically refers to sheet 2 cel A4 and in sheet 4 the formula automatically refers to sheet 3 cel A4 without corrections to the formula.

I am trying to drag down a formula (see below). the cell reference A6 and E6 is not updating to A7 and E7 etc etc when i drag the formula down using the corner thing. it remains constant at A6 and E6.
=HYPERLINK("#INDEX('Shipping Tracker Week X'!$F$4:$F$3000,MATCH(1,('Shipping Tracker Week X'!$B$4:$B$3000=A6)*('Shipping Tracker Week X'!$D$4:$D$3000=E6),0))","Link 1")
im pretty sure the problem comes down to the hashtag and quotation marks that i added, as the formula properly increased the cell references when i drag down without the hashtag and quotations. however, i sort of need it because adding those seems to be the only way i can get the hyperlink to link me over to the other sheet and to the correct cell containing the hyperlink.
part 2 of problem: the hashtag and quotations is currently a workaround method for me. the original intention was for the hyperlink to directly link me to a website, which is referenced from a separate sheet. however, without the hashtag and quotations, i get a "Cannot open specified file" error.

I'm trying to create an autoupdating price list using a part number and a website. I've tried Excel's data import wizard.
Website: WebFLIS - Public Search
Sample data Category
Chaplain Kits
Item
Chaplain's Kit, Consumable
NIIN
9925-01-326-2855
Price
$276.94
Description
Also called the ReSuppply Kit
VBA Code that allows me to automatically open the page.
Dim IE As Object
Sub submitFeedback3()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
[Code] ......
Ideally, I'd like to click a button that says "Update Prices" and it will search WebFlis for the NIIN listed and update the price. I have 717 items on my list so updating would be by click only (I think I can write that portion).
If that is not an option, I'd like to be able to click on each item row (think hyperlink) and be able to see the results for that individual item.

I want to search a word in my Data sheet and want to know what is the column position. Example: I have a word "LastName" as a Column header in my Datasheet whose column position can be anywhere in the datasheet based on the table selected. So i want to write a generic code which give me COLUMN position for this word in the datasheet.
So if "LASTNAME" header is coming as 7th column it return me 7
if "LASTNAME" header is coming as 9th column it return me 9.

I have generated macro, all I want is when this macro runs on different work sheets it should automatically select the active range based upon column A and copy the formula in the inserted new column B, please see the macro which will make it clear. Basically whenever it is copying a value or a formula it should be for the active range.

I want to create a macro which asks some information like functions do. For example, I would like the macro to ask for some data to be filled by the user. For that purpose I thought about using the inputBox vba function. I wanna fill the field in the inputBox with a reference to a range from an excel sheet. So, I click on a cell and then I try to hold ctrl + down cursor to get all the range starting from that cell on until the last consecutive filled cell on the sheet. Nonetheless, the problem I have is that when I do ctrl+down cursor, I just do not get the reference I want, because it seems that the ctrl+down cursor combination does not work in the inputbox for filling a reference to a range of cells. Does anyone know some workaround to achieve this?

I have two sheets. One called "Roster" and one called "final". On the final sheet i have cols for each question on the final exam. I also have a total col which sums up the pts for each question.
On the "roster" sheet. This is kinda like a summary sheet. On this sheet i use a vlookup (shown below) in the cells which are supposed to reference the cells on the "final" sheet for the total pts.

I need a method of updating a set of data held on tab1 from tab2 where details of one record is shown using VLOOKUP, possibly via a macro? For example:
Sheet 1 holds info on various companies - (Column headers: Name, address1,
address2, postcode, " DATE LETTER SENT")
Sheet 2 Uses a drop down menu to select the desired company and some VLOOKUP
formulas show the info from sheet1 on that one particular company. Sheet 3 There is a printable standard template letter which draws info from the record selected on sheet 2 (using standard =Sheet1!A1 formula) formated so the letter is addressed to the specific company selected. Back to: Sheet 2 - At the bottom there is a button which says 'Print' This runs a macro which selects sheet3, prints it then returns to sheet2. I need this macro to also go back to sheet1 and update the relevant record with ideally todays date (the date the letter was printed) in the "DATE
LETTER SENT" column mentioned before but can just be an 'X' to show a letter
has been printed for this company/record at some point. So in the future, by looking at sheet1 you can easil determine which companys have had letters printed against, and which havn't.

This seems really basic, but I can't seem to find it...
Using Visual Basic, if I have a named range, lets say like "NAMEDRANGE", how can I refer to cells in that range by their position in the range? For example, if I want to refer to the cell in the 2nd row and 3rd column of the range.
Also is their an easy way to refer to the first(top-left) cell in a named range?

I wanna have a Vlookup Macro function in my spreadsheet. I perform a vlookup in the spreadsheet by using vlookup formula and I found out that it is waste of time to retrieve records from other file when I have a total of 55000 records in one spreadsheet. I plan to use macro functions to retrieve records instead of using vlookup formula. So is there any chance that I can create the macro based on my scenario? {i already attached my spreadsheet here, it is a dump data}
In the sample1.xls, I want to retrieve the records from the sample2.xls by using Material as the key field. When I run the Vlookup Macro, the system is able to help me lookup the value such as (Net Sales: January until Net Sales: March) and display the records in the sample1.xls based on the Material Key Field. So hope that my problems can be solve here.

The message shows me "Can not get the vlookup property of worksheetfunction class" and don't know the reason. The 'plancomm' and 'bonus' is the range name in different worksheets of the same workbook as the rngcell.
Case Else:
.Offset(0, 1).Value = WorksheetFunction.VLookup(rngCell.Offset(0, -3), Range("plancomm"), 2, 0)
.Offset(0, 2).Value = WorksheetFunction.VLookup(rngCell.Offset(0, -4) & rngCell.Offset(0, 1), Range("bonus"), 6, 0)

I'm trying to use an offset from a Named Range as my source cell in a vlookup but get a -1004 Object not defined error. When Debugged the Range.Formula appears to be blank when queried. Using Record a Macro the Reference to a named range worked fine but I could not test for an offset or the use of the range reference. What can I do to use to make this work
Range.Formula="=vlookup(Range(""SomeName"").Offset(1,0),DataRange,2,False)"
