Autofill Dynamic Row Ranges
Feb 21, 2007
I've got a spreadsheet that I download a list of information into. The information relates to activities that are taking place e.g. start time, end time, type of activity (e.g. meeting) and duration (which identifies the length of the activity in 30 min slots e.g. 9.30am - 11.30am = 4).
The rest of the columns are labelled to represent the time in 30 min slots starting from 9am. What I would like excel to be able to do is to identify the first cell in the range which would be the cell that represents the start time in the row. Then from this cell fill cells in the row up to the end time with something - it doesn't matter what as long as the cell can be differentiated from the other blank cells in the row.
I don't think that I've explained myself that well so I've attached the spreadsheet for you to look at.

I have a range which will change in size & in content, & I want this to be a Named Range at whatever size it is.
Reason I want to is because I want to make a Validation List with this dynamic range. I also want a Validation list which lists the content of 2 or more dynamic ranges which may or may not be on the same worksheet - is this possible?
i.e.
First dynamic range: called "Milestones" at A11
Second dynamic range: called "Activities" at A25
& make a Validation list that will list content of both

I would like to replace the blue bit of this Dynamic Named Range (DNR) with an INDIRECT formula in order to modify the starting point for the DNR: =OFFSET(DATA!$C$60,0,0,20,1). Unfortunately, I can’t seem to get my INDIRECT formula to work in order to use it to replace the blue bit above: INDIRECT("'"DATA"'!&ADDRESS(MATCH('SHEET1'!AC8,DATA_Date,0)+22,3)"). The orange bit of the formula above returns a value of 60, therefore the ADDRESS formula should return $C$60, that can then feed into the INDIRECT and act as the equivalent of DATA!$C$60. But it doesn’t.

I'm trying to calculate the average of every five rows. I have a formula =Average(A1:A5) in cell B1. When I do an autofill in B2, the formula would read =Average(A2:A6). What I actually want it to be is =Average(A6:A10), increments of 5. I don't know what i'm doing wrong. I have also tried selecting all the B rows and doing autofill and that still doesn't work.

It has been a while since I worked with VB and I am struggling with some simple code.
I have an Excel sheet that I am using to track client information on, the client name starts on A3 and the list of clients we are tracking will vary from week to week.
I have values in B3:D3 that I need to auto fill based on the values that I have in column A. For example, if column A goes to row 33 then I want to auto fill B3:D3 down to row 33.
The code that I have now works as band aid, but I need something more dynamic.
I have found some solutions on line but none of them worked on varying lengths, the following is the code that has worked so far.
Sub Autofill()
'
' Autofill Macro
'
Range("B3:D3").Select
Selection.Autofill Destination:=Range("B3:D36")
Range("B3:D36").Select
Range("B3").Select
End Sub

I have searched for this on the site as I thought it would have already been asked but I couldn't find anything. I have a formula in cell C7 which I wish to copy both down to the last row (xlup from column A) and across to the last column (xltoleft on row 6) but I cant seem to work out how to do it. I have used the .autofill before but for dynamic rows only. Is it possible to do for columns too?

I am currently trying to make a digital time card for my place of employment. I has an odd set up and odd date ranges. The pay period starts on the 21st of each month and ends on the 20th of the next month.
The time cards have 5 columns for each week starting on Mondays going to Sunday (also weird its not Saturday to Sunday) What I was hoping to accomplish was being able to select the starting month of your choice for pay period and have multiple cells update the week date range.
Date
Date
Date
Date
Date
**Here would be the drop down month select.
Sept 21 - Sept 22
Sept 23 - Sept 29
Sept 30 - Oct 6
Oct 7 - Oct 13
Oct 14 -Oct 20

how best to do this (bare with me I'm not quite a pro at excel yet!). I'll attach my doc (JMP Excel Forum) so you know what I'm taking about. I've set up the data to work in a similar way to this, as you can see I've a table set up (Appliance Sheet) which feeds information to the Main Sheet which contains the drop down lists.
What I need it to do is autofill the wattage column (Main!F8 onwards) with the wattage for the device as described in Appliance!N3 or N4 for example. For the wattage column to equal 28 (equivalent to Appliance!N3) then the following would show in the dropdown selections Type>Computers SubCategory>Monitors Device>BENQ G2222HDL Status>On
Is there a way to do this with the set up I have?
I did have a previous version of the whole worksheet that each Device had its own table and I looked up the wattage using and If formula to lookup a info on the device and knowing where to look it up based on the subcategory
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(D7,IF('Main UI'!C7="Heating_Cooling",Appliances!$A$7:$B$14, IF('Main UI'!C7="Kitchen_Bathroom",Appliances!$A$16:$B$27,IF('Main UI'!C7="Monitors",Appliances!$A$52:$B$62,IF(C7="Computers",Appliances!$A$64:$B$68,........
And I got it to work but it was getting to cumbersome to add in new devices and update the formulas. If attached that doc (OLD) so you know what I'm talking about. The last two sheets are the same sheets that make up the new document (JMP Excel Forum)OLD.xlsm
I really prefer the new way I've got it set up. Its easier to add new information or options to the dropdown list

I want to create dependent lists using data validation. The lists need to be created from ranges that will be growing as users add more data. I think the best way to create the list is a VLOOKUP. However, I am not sure how to use the VLOOKUP when the range is changing.
I have attached an example. I have a list on sheet "Vlookup" called "FRUIT" with "apple", "orange", "banana". Then to make the depedent lists I have created three other lists called: "APPLE", "ORANGE", "BANANA". I want to pull the COST from sheet "VALUES" into the lists "APPLE", "ORANGE", "BANANA". Users will be adding costs next to the FRUIT they purchase.

I have a particular issue - i am trying to create a rolling correlation.
lets say you have two variables for 3 different months:
Month1 a x
Month2 b y
Month3 c z
correlation will correlate a-c with t-v
however, come next month - i have to manually drag the ranges for a rolling three month correlation:
Month1 a t
Month2 b u
Month3 c v
Month4 d w
correlation will now correlate b-d with u-w for a the last three months.
I want to automate this as I know what the month is, I can't seem to return the last three months and correlate the data.
I have tried to do this with the database functions, but I think that they break the array relationship of b-d and u-w in the correlation function.

In the example I have attached, I need 4 named, dynamic ranges to build a chart with:
1) Dates for the chart
always starting from A2 ... to whenever the LAST sum of B, C, D =0
(right now that would be A2:A30)
2) The Amounts
I need the amounts as 3 individual dynamic ranges, with no 0 values
(example - B2:B21, or c10:c14, etc)
3)The date column
same as #2, but just a single cell reference to show as a marker on the chart.
(example e21:e21)
I know someone here will think 'so what's the big deal' and pop it out in 30 seconds.

I'm trying to make ranges in a SumProduct formula dynamic, but getting errors #N/A. I think this is because the top two rows are headers, throwing off the range count.
Q. How do I adjust the range definition to compensate., e.g.
Range =Offset(Sheet1!$D$3,0,0,COUNT(Sheet1!$D:$D),1) where column D is numeric, and
Range = Offset(Sheet1!$T$3,0,0,Match("*",Sheet1!$T:$T,-1),1) where column T is text?
I had assumed that the offset value 3 would do this, but I suspect the functions count and match are not doing so.

I am trying to create a vlookup to get a count of trouble tickets techs completed daily within a table I created, I am using a table since its dynamic. For example I need to see how many tickets Joe completed in a day. See below...
Tech Ticket# Comments Status
Joe 1234 Replaced HD Closed
John 3212 Replace Motherboard Closed
Joe 5678 Installed OS Closed
Above is just an example (my table has 40 columns). I need to vlookup joe and get the count of the closed tickets.

So I was looking for reassurance or validation more than anything. From what I can tell you can in order to build a chart that is dynamic throughout a range, you use the offset and count or counta function - 1. That part isn't a problem. My question is once you created that for your charts do you just normally plot your chart range or do you have to reference the named range directly into the chart range?

I have a stock chart that I want to update dynamically if the data record length changes. From the source data menu, I tried to use the following data ranges:
=OFFSET(Candles!$AB$8,1,0,COUNTA($AB:$AB)) ---> Date, x values
=OFFSET(Candles!$AD$8,1,0,COUNTA($AD:$AD)) ---> High
=OFFSET(Candles!$AE$8,1,0,COUNTA($AE:$AE)) ---> Low
=OFFSET(Candles!$AF$8,1,0,COUNTA($AF:$AF)) ---> Close
When I place any of these in the data range box under 'x axis labels or values', I receive the message "This function is not valid".
The MS webpage at http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ex...098011033.aspx describes using these formulas but they don't appear to work.

I am creating a consolidation worksheet. It contains a macro that automatically copy data from other sources and paste it into my DB sheet. It already works, but I want to improve it. The source worksheet databases has been defined with the name “SOURCE”. Is there any way that I can make my macro look for this dynamic ranges directly, copy and paste it into my DB sheet. I am attaching an example of what my current macro is doing.

I'm having a fit with this formula; maybe the gurus will show me what I'm doing wrong. I have a list of area numbers along with dollar amounts that go with these area numbers. I have created a named range named "Areas" and another one named "MO_PD".
At the bottom of the worksheet I am doing a recap that takes the area number and sums all the entries in the MO PD column. This approach has been done before with Thomach's help. I'm trying to mimic it, but it's not working for me.
NOTE - I know that I can get around this using a pivot table, but I would like to use this approach for now. I would at least like to know what I'm doing wrong. Also, I'm not totally sure if I did the dynamic named ranges correctly so that may need to be fixed.

I've been working a macro that seems pretty simple, but has been giving me loads of trouble. I have about 20 worksheets in a Workbook, which all have a similar template (i.e. the data I'm interested in starts on row 14), but have different amounts (rows) of data in them. I want a macro that sorts all the data in ascending/descending order according to column Q. The problem that I am running into is not that the macro only works for the sheet that is active when I run the macro as opposed to every single sheet in the workbook ....

Does COUNTIFS not work with named ranges/dynamic ranges? Everytime I try, I get a #VALUE! error. These are my 2 dynamic ranges:
ResultsM=OFFSET([results_list.xls]Results!$M$4,0,0,COUNTA([results_list.xls]Results!$M:$M),1)
ResultsQ=OFFSET([results_list.xls]Results!$Q$4,0,0,COUNTA([results_list.xls]Results!$Q:$Q),1)
The formula is simply:
=COUNTIFS(ResultsQ,"GENDER",ResultsM,"MALE"
However, this does NOT work. it returns the #VALUE! error. However, odly enough, when I use column references, it works:
=COUNTIFS([results_list.xls]Results!Q:Q, "GENDER", [results_list.xls]Results!M:M, "MALE")
This makes me think that COUNTIFS just don't work with named references..

Worksheet A - I've set up a dynamic range to display the last 12 row entries of 2 columns
Worksheet B - pivot table of the range
The dynamic range is working perfectly, it displays the correct rows I can set up the data source once... the results on the pivot table display corectly
Problem When i press refresh, the data source "dissapears" and i have to rebuild the pivot table.

I have a question regarding dynamic validation. I have attached a sample spreadsheet to clarify if my explanation doesn't. I have a list of codes that map to a list of other codes that are not one to one mapping. I would like for the other users of this code to populate what the correct code on our side is but without having to go thru the entire list in a validation field. (if that makes since)
Using validation before in a similar instance i used indirect to grab a named range to help shorten the list for them. However in this case that would be a ton of ranges i would have to set up! I've tried Match, countif and index in an offset formula in the validation list but can never get it to work!

I want to create a cascading combo box from some values that I have, ill explain how I approached it.
Cascading combo box is a combobox which values are obtained depending on the answer of a previous combo box.
So I set up a little table like so:
Categories Car Train Bike
Car Mercades First Honda
Train Ford Western Ducati
Bike Skoda Red Suzuki
and the combo boxes would be set aside from that.I collected the data in Named Ranges (A Range for Categories, A Range for Car, A Range for Train...)
The first data validation box contains = Categories the second data validation box contains =INDIRECT($C$2) (Where C2 was the range of the first validation box)
Once this was working, I decided to change the formula for the named ranges to allow me to add more values.
The formula was: =$F3$F8
I changed it to: =OFFSET($F$3,0,0,COUNTA($F3:$F96),1)
I expected this to work however, it just doesnt.... when clicking on the drop down arrow for the validation box, nothing happens. No box or values or dropdown.

In the attached workbook I have hard-pasted data in columns A:M that's designated as an Excel Table to make it dynamic.
In the adjacent columns O:AA I have formulae to extract data from A:M based on the "Frequency" stipulated in cell AD1,
I would like to be able easily to sort the data in the variable sized range in columns O to AA in descending order of the calculated values in column Z.
Best way to do this so that the formula don't get jumbled up or the blank cells in column Z end up at the top of the sorted data?
