Cannot Create Or Use The Data Range Reference Because It Is Too Complex
Aug 15, 2008
I have a workbook containing a lot of worksheets, each sheet contains approx 60,000 rows of data (each sheet varies in the number of rows slightly but the data is always contained in column A). There are only 4 unique values and my task is to filter out the 4 seperate values and copy & append them to a master list in 4 columns side-by-side i.e. valueA in A1, valueB in B2 etc.
The problem I have run into is that when I have filtered out one of the values and try to copy it I get an error message - "Excel cannot create or use the data range reference because it is too complex".
This has left me thinking that the only way to process the data is to manually copy approx 20,000 rows at a time (I'm not sure what the maximum amount of filtered data Excel can handle is but this it can definitely handle) and paste to the master list.

Creating a formula that basically has a big IF statement. I hope this makes sense, so here goes. I am looking to find the "age" or "elapsed days" of an ID from when they created an account to when they stopped. This might be very complex and if there's not a way to calculate the Elapsed days (even though that's what I prefer), perhaps there is some formula that can return a value like a "1" or "True" or something that lets me know the statement is true.
original formula from post 3261273
{=IF(D2>0,A2-INDEX(A$2:D$16,MATCH(B2&"1",B$2:B$16&C$2:C$16,0),1),"")}
New formulas needed or revised from the above:
Formula 1: If the ID in column 2 are the same, and if there is a value in column 3 (Create) and a value in Column 4 (Suspend) AND there is no value in Column 5 (Stopped), then subtract the dates in column 1 for Create and Suspend. My manual calculation result is in the column called "Elapsed Days (Create to Suspend but NO Stopped)
Formula 2: If the ID in column 2 are the same, and if there is a value in column 3 (Create) and a value in Column 4 (Suspend) AND there is no value in Column 5 (Stopped) OR Column 6 (Unsuspend), then subtract the dates in column 1 for Create and Suspend. My manual calculation result is in the column called "Elapsed Days (Suspend Only, No stopped or Unsuspend)"
Formula 3: The ID in column 2 does not have to be the same, but if there is a value in column 3 only (Create) and there is no value in the Suspend, Stopped, or Unsuspend columns, then place a "1" in the cell. My manual calc is the "Create Only" column.
Event Date
ID
CREATE
Suspend
STOPPED
Unsuspend
Elapsed Days (Create to Suspend but NO Stopped)
Elapsed Days (Suspend Only, No stopped or Unsuspend)

I am creating an automatic, mobile logging system utilizing a GPS. The US Census Bureau provides approximate coordinates for each US zipcode. An example of "45252", which is my home zipcode is below...
-84.629861342656539.2773019382716
-84.630347000000039.3120560000000

These sets of Longitute and Latitude coords define a boundary for my zip code. What I need to do is create a complex polygon with the above coords and then, feeding a function a Longitute and Latitude, determine if that given global position falls within my polygon (zip code boundary).
For example:
Longitude: -84.6197
Latitude: 39.2947
Will fall within the above polygon and my function would return true.

I have a range that I named. Let's say that range is called "RangeX". Let's say RangeX is defined by B2:E10
I have a series of formulas that give me the row and column numbers of the starting and ending cell of a subset range I want to create within RangeX. Let's say the starting cell is defined by (1,1) and the ending cell is defined by (3,4) within RangeX. Translated, the starting cell would be B2 and the ending cell would be E4.
How do I create a subset range using the starting cell (1,1) and (3,4) in VBA? I would like to use the row/column reference as RangeX itself could move around.

it doesn't like the fact I have split column headers and I was wondering if there was a way around it or another solution to save me time manually counting or filtering. I can't attach the actual spreadsheet for some reason but attach a screenshot to illustrate what I mean.
I need to count the number of 1's, 2's, 3's etc in each 'On Exit' column for each area. I then need to work out what percentage of the cohort they each are.

I'm making a user form in excel/vbe, that will enter data into a worksheet behind the form. I would like to make a unique reference number that is automatically generated by the form as the next in the series. It can be as simple a number as 00001 so nothing too complicated I hope.
When the user opens the user-form i would like the reference to appear on the form so that they know what it is. Then when they enter the data I want the number to go in the database with all the rest of the info they have entered and also for a message box to come up reminding them to rememeber their number.

I'm new to Excel (4th day in class) and I can't find the answer to what I'm looking for on the net. Part of the problem is that I don't know what to call it, so I have a hard time looking it up.
Very simply put, let's say there are examples numbers 1,2,3,4 put in cells A1 to A4 (vertical) and more example number 50,60,70,80 are put in cells A6 to D6 (horizontal)
What one formula can be written in B1 that I can copy down to B4 that will make B1=A1+A6, and B2=A2+B6, and B3=A3+C6, and B4=A4+D6

I have a list of headings and items and I have a set of formulas that work out depending on the heading what items are listed.
Say theres 10 items and the heading starts at C4 and that heading has 10 items, so it puts "C5" as text in G1 and "C15" as text in G2 so i now know my cell range of items
How can i use the text in those cells to put in a formula to call that as a range?
If I use the indirect formula it shows me the value of the cell, but im after using it to reference the cell

I 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?

If I have two cells and a named range mexico
A1, A2.
A1 contains the string: "mexico"
A2 is the cells that has required data validation (drop down list).
I want A2's validation reference to be dynamic, in the sense that I can it reference it to A1; converting the string "mexico" to a named range mexico
I tried inputting = INDIRECT(A1) into A2
But I lack clarity in my understanding of referencing.
What is the correct procedure here.

I got a very technical sheet which needs your experience to work.
open the attached file below to see the workbook.
It has 3 different sheets. "RESULT", "INPUT" and "SWITCH"
On "RESULT" Cell (O11) is where the person would put a Reference.
This reference is then checked on the "INPUT" sheet column A.
From the first cell it appears in Column A, until the last cell it appears in Column A should be the Row Range (Blanks included).
But I want that range (Column A to G) to be copied to "Switch" sheet. Pasted in Cell A1 downwards.
In the "SWITCH" sheet I have already given all the GREEN Cell formated areas a name - INFO.
I want all the data in INFO to be inserted into "RESULT" sheet between row 18 and 19.
I have colour coded most of the areas for you.. And added a button from which the Macro / VBA should run when clicked.

I have attached a sample of the issue. The formula is found in cell B49. If I enter a gravity of 2.76 or higher in cell B47 I get #N/A in cell B49. Why will it not read any farther over than 2.75. I have been starring at this for awhile now. I might look pretty dumb after someone else looks at it.

I am using following code to apply data validation list. However this code gives error Intermittently. The error message is 'Application defined or Object defined error'. Also this code looks little cumber some. Will really apprciate if any one can put some ligh on why is this error appearing sometimes. Do I need to change something in the code or add few extra lines. I feel following points will be necessary when you check my code
1. The data of validation list is stored under the column heading 'Reported_By_List'
2. Validation is applied on the range under the column heading 'Reported Through'
3. Start and last Cell Address Of the cells of the column in which data of validation list is
stored are extracted into the variables 'StartCellAddress1' & 'LastCellAddress1 '
4. Start and last Cell Address Of the cells of the column on which data validation will be
applied are stored are extracted into the variables 'StartCellAddress2' &
'LastCellAddres2'
Sub Validation1()
Dim wsName As String
Dim RValue As String
Dim WorkBookName As String
Dim StartRow As Integer
Dim StartColumn As Integer
Dim LastRow As Integer
Dim CellAddress As String
Dim ColumnAddress As String
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
WorkBookName = ThisWorkbook.Name
wsName = ActiveSheet.Name...........

how to use cells to create refrences in a formula so I don't have to hand write each refrence in a cell. I wanted to do this by creating a row with accending numbers (1,2,3,4,etc.) and a column with decending characters (a,b,c,d,etc...). Can this be done?
So for example I have a cell formula that reads the following
'Raw Data'!A2
Can I modify this formula so that the formula will automaticly refrence a different letter that corresponds with the cells location? So I would use this cell to change the (A) automatically depending on where the cell is in the spreadsheet. Likewise can I do that with the (2) the same way?
Does this make sence, or should I just continue to hard write each cell?
The reason why I need to do this is because the raw data is in a single column and the formulas that I need to use this data for needs me to convert the data into rows instead of columns.

The spread sheet I work with will not post info on the second sheet automatically. So I'm in the process of trying to figure that out. The second page is basically giving a percentage of parts the person did compared to what another company would pay that person per hour to do at 7.42 an hour. I need the second page to take all the info on the first page and figure out the %. What it does to get it is, adds the numbers and divides by the total to get average and then compares it to 7.42 and hour.
Also, if i could get the Name boxes to be auto filled with the file name? that possible? IE, John smith is the name of the file and it would auto fill that into all the name boxes on the sheets. And could i get the date to auto fill it self from the first date box? I included two files, one is a blank sheet and the other is a sample of the data entered and what i want it to look like.

I am trying to create a cross-reference database in excel. I am not sure if I am using the correct terminology, so here is what I need to do:
I have three columns that contain text cells, each with different numbers of rows. Now imagine that cell A1 is related to cell B3 and also to cell C5. There are numerous different combinations similar to this. Is there a way to show this relationship between cells in excel. If so, how?

Is there anyway to create a circular reference between three cells, and still enter text freely into any of the cells?
I've speculated that it might be possible by utilizing three or more other cells slaved to the first three, and simply kept off to the side.
To give a better understanding of what I'm trying to do, I've created a finance spreadsheet for our shop's snack bar, and below is a screenshot of a portion of said spreadsheet.
As you can see, all of the formulas are set up to where Columns F, G, and H are directly affected by what I put in Column E, but I don't want to be limited to just Column E; I want the other users and I to have more freedom than that.
Once again, my goal is to set up a 3-cell circular reference in which data can be typed into any of them. I've considered setting up a macro, but those are only active temporarily, and I would prefer the calculations to be made in real-time.

I'm a definite newbie when it comes to macros but can figure out formulas ok.
So I wrote a formula to break out a sort string and it got pretty complicated so I’m trying to create a macro so I don't have to write out the formula all the time. However the sort tag can be in different columns when I need this formula so I tried the "run macro" function to create a relative reference.
So it changed my formula from this:
PHP
=IF(ISERR(FIND("("&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(EM2))&")",EM2)),"",IF(ISERR(FIND("("&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(EM2)+1)&")",EM2)),MID(EM2,FIND("("&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(EM2))&")",EM2)+3,100),MID(EM2,FIND("("&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(EM2))&")",EM2)+3,FIND("("&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(EM2))+1&")",EM2)-FIND("("&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(EM2))&")",EM2)-3)))
PHP
"=IF(ISERR(FIND(""(""&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(RC[-1]))&"")"",RC[-1])),"""",IF(ISERR(FIND(""(""&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(RC[-1])+1)&"")"",RC[-1])),MID(RC[-1],FIND(""(""&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(RC[-1]))&"")"",RC[-1])+3,100),MID(RC[-1],FIND(""(""&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(RC[-1]))&"")"",RC[-1])+3,FIND(""(""&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(RC[-1]))+1&"")"",RC[-1])-FIND(""(""&(COLUMN()-COLUMN(RC[-1]))&"")"",RC[-1])-3)))"
Now my problem is in the first formula I need "$EM2" not "EM2".
I tried the obvious to me fix of R$C[-1] which did not work... And when trying to re-run the macro it puts RC143 which will not work because the sort string is not always in column EM.

I'm using VLOOKUP to create a Cross Reference tool. CR is my "anchor" page that I'm attempting to tie the remaining worksheets WIT,TEC,COP back to the CR worksheet. I'm able to get VLOOKUP to work on the CR worksheet in columns H & I but unable to get the VLOOKUP to work in column J. The VLOOKUP function is entered but it does not return a value that I know exists in worksheet COP.

Every new file I create is named with a sequential reference based on some criteria:
PackageName_(Place+SequentialNumber).
So, in my worksheet I have several columns with package names: LABK, LAVO, LACR… and on the rows I have the file names.
I have this UserForm I created Search.JPG
Basically (despite I imagine it’s not that simple), when I type the package name and the place as follows, for example
Package = LABK
Place = SAO
After clicking on “Generate” button, it should look for all file names containing LABK and SAO, verify what the last sequential number is (highest/MAX) and generate a new one in the text box below the button.So, if the last file name is LABK_(SAO005), it’ll generate a new one as LABK_(SAO006).

I am trying to create a budgeting spreadsheet that contains 26 worksheets that represent 2 week expense cycles. The worksheet will tally all the expenses in its 2 week cycle, compare them to a target budget, and calculate the remaining budget. I would like to roll the remaining budget over to the next 2 week budget cycle by having a cell refer to the remaining budget in the previous worksheet.
I am trying to accomplish this using the following VBA script. I get an error (Run-time error 1004: Application-defined or object-defined error) on the 3rd to last line of the code. I think the issue is with how I am constructing the wsReference variable. I have seen other codes do something similar (VBA - How to refer to a different worksheet cell) but I am not having any luck.
Sub Budget_Rollover()
Dim i As Long
' Loop through all the worksheets, starting with the second sheet
For i = 2 To Worksheets.Count
Dim wsReference As String
Dim wsName As String
' Define the name of the previous expense cycle worksheet

The next sheet is where the magic happens. Separate this worksheet into two sections. The reference section (column A and B) and the entry section (column E-G). Column D is a formula that will concatenate column E-G together. In the entry section any number of combinations can be entered. In the reference section I need to take the style number and reference it back to the data sheet. Then take the possible combinations from that style (column E and greater) and see if any of those combinations exist on the other sheet in column D. If so then say added....otherwise say needed.
