Change Formula To Reference New Tab In Separate File
Apr 30, 2012
I have a file that summarizes data by country and by month but then another file with a yearly summary. I need to pull in the same cell references for each month but using each tab's name: 'Jan' tab, 'Feb' tab etc. The problem is every time I tell it to find/replace the tab name, I have to select the file from its location in a browsing box every time. I have also tried the indirect formula without much luck and because I also had to add all the month summary tabs to the original file to get the indirect formula to work. I would rather keep both files separate.
How do I copy over formulas in the Jan column and change the tab reference to the Feb tab for the Feb column without having to change things 200 times for each countries data?

I have a set of formula in column C to H. I have set a formula as sheet1+sheet2+ like this for about 24 sheets with different reference of cells. I want to change in the entire range of cells C to H as =sum(sheet1:sheet24!b04). The reference what I have mentioned changes in different cells.

Is there a way to change a cell reference within a formula. ie: If the formula is =A1 (in reference to cell A1) and I wanted a new cell to have the reference =A10. Can I make a formula which was A1+9, and therefore lookup A10.

Is there an easy way to drag all the references to a cell in a formula quickly e.g If i have a formula like this is;
=IF(A1>0, A1+1,A1-1)
and want to drag all the references to the cell A1 to another cell in one go as opposed to one at a time?

How do I change a formula cell reference based on another cell's reference? I'm building a schedule that looks to a task's trigger and adds days based on that relationship. All entries in column "A" will be text and all cells in "B" will be the simple formula "=A2" or "=A3". Due date is calculated by adding the value in "C" to the preceding date in column "D". In the spreadsheet below, the trigger for "Budget set" is "Specs written" with 3 days added to the previous due date.
________A________________B_____________C_________D
1 Task___________Trigger_____________Days_____Due Date
2 Design begins__Proj OK______________10____10-Jan
3 Specs written__Design begins (A2)____5____15-Jan (D2+C3)
4 Budget set_____Specs written (A3)____3____18-Jan (D3+C4)
If the trigger for A4, "Budget set", changed from A3 to A2, is there a way that the formula that determines the due date in D4 could read the trigger cell reference in B4 so that the value in the corresponding row in column "C" is added in the date column?

I was wondering whether there is an easy way to change a formula containing a named range back into it's original cell reference in VB. For example I have a cell saying =cogs2008/revenue2008 and I want to change it back into =A2/A3. Any ideas?

I have a range named as follows in a formula:
BaseCase!$O:$O
I have a data validation from which the user can choose another tab.
So, how do I change the reference above to:
TabName!$O:$O
so that TabName refers to the text string in cell B2 (data val. box)
I tried to use TEXT to no avail. I imagine there is a simple solution, but I am at a loss.
INDIRECT perhaps?

In Sheet1,
C14 = Sheet2!D2
C15 = Sheet2!D3
C16 = Sheet2!D5
What i want to do is to change "D" to "E". Next time i run it, it will change from "E" to "G".
I want a macro to do it, so that I don't have to change it manually one by one. For some reason, when i try to use .formulaR1C1, the reference change, and I couldn't get it to work.

I have the following (working) formula that pulls the largest value from an array in a closed workbook on a network share:
=LARGE('\pdfpcoclu2k302pd10fap2k01dist10AdminFISCAL SHAREDM806 ReportsFY 2008-2009Clarion countyJanuary 09[385-4009.xls]M-805'!$F$11:$G$41,1)
I want to be able to use a cell value within the open workbook to change the name of the referenced workbook (i.e. the 385-4009 portion of the formula) in the fromula
I have atempted to use the following:
=LARGE('\pdfpcoclu2k302pd10fap2k01dist10AdminFISCAL SHAREDM806 ReportsFY 2008-2009Clarion countyJanuary 09["'"p8"'.xls]M-805'!$F$11:$G$41,1)
but excel returns an error and highlights the following portion of the formula:
'\pdfpcoclu2k302pd10fap2k01dist10AdminFISCAL

if this is possible, but is there anyway to reference a file location in a formula using another cell?
EG:
Cell A2 (Text) = C:Folder1Folder2Folder3Sheet v1.2.xls
Cell B2 = =A2'tab1'!$A$1
So, in cell B2 it will use the file location in cell A2.
I need this because the values will be updated in Sheet v1.2 and version controlled (so if it changes to 1.3 all you have to do is change cell A2).

Trying to reference cells in a closed workbook for the first time, and am having problems. The formula in my cell is: ='H:Trial BalanceTESTING[12-07-2007.csv]12-07-2007'!$P2
At first it wouldn't work, and I always had a #REF! in that cell, but when I opened the csv file the correct value showed in the cell that has the formula. Is it not possible to have it work without me having to open the csv file as well?

I'm dealing with forecasting invoices. The main column 'BALANCE' has a formula referencing the previous cell and then adding or subtracting invoices (ENTRY). The problem I have is that I'll put values in ENTRY that I expect to come in at some point but as they arrive I need to change the order of the cells. So I'm constantly changing the order and then it changes the formula in BALANCE. I tried absolute cells (and even found a work around way to flow absolute cells by flowing then viewing formulas then using the replace function but that didn't work.
So my formula in BALANCE is:
=$I$173+$E$174-$G$174
but if I move G174 to another cell I'd like to keep the BALANCE formula to stay G174 instead of following the move.

i have the table of holiday days with 7 columns(7 countries).Each column consists of 10(or more rows (holiday days).
I have a formula for calculating start day for a deposit which has to be renewed.
formula is =workdays(end date of deposit,-2,A1:A10).
-2 in formula is because all the trades in the market are traded Today+2days.
A1:A10 is column of holiday days.
This formula calculates the start of deposit excluding weekends,holiday days.
BUT I have more then 7 countries and I would like to have a macro so when in cell F10 I type SWEDEN,my formula automatically use the column with holiday days B1:B10 for sweden.
When I type Finland, the formula uses column C1:C10 with holiday days from Finland respectively.

I need to reference a cell to another cell in a different workbook (not opened), however the name of this workbook contains a variable in its name. Something like:
='C:[Week" & variable &".xls]R23'!$D$3
where variable is the number of the week. I have tried using a cell name instead of a variable: ='C:[Week=($B$3).xls]R23'!$D$3
and I get a dialog box to update values by selecting a file.

I have an excel workbook that has many spreadsheets (each one sheet has a client name)I have another excel workbook that has these client names on one sheet (on a list) and next to every name I have a number (i.e total turnover of the year).
In the first workbook (where every client has his sheet (tab named after the client) I want to have a cell that equals to the sum of some cells on the other workbook, that refer to the specific client
(it looks like this ='[comissions NF 10-14.xls]comissions 14(auto)'!$J$81+'[comissions NF 10-14.xls]comissions 14(auto)'!$J$197+'[comissions NF 10-14.xls]comissions 14(auto)'!$J$313+'[comissions NF 10-14.xls]comissions 14(auto)'!$J$429)
I want this sum to be added to every sheet of this workbook. each sheet refers to a client, so $J$81, $J$197 etc must be changed for the correct cell that refers to the name of the client. The tab names are alphabetical and so s the list.
Is there any way to do it, without re-entering the formula to each one?

Just wondering if there is a way to indirectly reference a workbook in a formula?
For example, suppose A1 has the path/filename of the workbook I want to reference.
So in another cell I want to do, say, a VLOOKUP(A2,A1,5), where A2 is the lookup value. This way, if I have multiple workbooks I want to look at, I can specify them all in various cells, and simply have the formula look at the right cell to perform the lookup.
I've played with INDIRECT and get something close if I do
=INDIRECT("'"&A1&"'!A1:AJ1500")
but that just returns the contents of A1 in the target sheet.

I have on inventory sheet that has all the data in each cell 2612 to be exact! That changes month to month with deletions.
The format is: Sheet 2
A/B/
334702/UEMR88QX
334703/UEMR85QX
334704/UEMR81QX
334707/UEMR8JQX
The master worksheet has about 5000 items and the (A and B) data are both on it with other data ranging from (A-Y). My question is how do I have a cell look up data and return that it exists or doesn’t exist on the inventory sheet?
Master
A/B/C/D/E/
35/ 465/881676311350/311350/UEMR8ZTU
36/469/881676310722/310722/UEMR8V5V
37/483/881676310924/310924/UEMR8XYU
38/805/881676331096/331096/UEMR8J13
My other problem I need to take that months inventory list and have it look at the master list and return the system number from the master list (B) next to the matching inventory number (C). Allowing me to cross match inventory to master each month and save inventory worksheet each month.
I know I can copy the column and past is as a value so I won’t lose the numbers as the master changes but getting the data onto that months inventory has been a pain.

I am trying to separate a filename from a filepath in Excel VBA 2003.
I am using the Application. GetOpenFilename command to get the user to select the correct file.
However, this also seems to record the filepath.
I am trying to separate the filename out of this so that each file( name) activates a different sub procedure.
I am storing the result of the getopenfilename as a Variant.
At the moment I am having to specify the full path in order to get each sub to run. This is fine for 1 user - but not for others as the files are stored in different locations for each user.

Microsoft Office Excel cannot calculate a formula. Cell references in the formula refer to the formula's result, creating a circular reference. Try one of the following

I am trying to automatically reference the contents of another file into my main file. Basically I have one schedule that I've automatically generated in AutoCAD, and another formatted template. The AutoCAD schedule is completely unformated.
I want to include a link to the AutoCAD scheule (a *.CSV file) on my main spreadsheet and have the autoCAD schedule populate my template. I've done some reading, primarily on here, and I think I need to use either the INDIRECT() or the INDEX() function.
I can get INDIRECT() to work, but it's fairly repetitive (not overly important, but still.....). More importantly, though, the schedule file has to be open, which I would like to avoid if possible. INDEX(), I just can't figure out how to work!

A 'Days Attended' cell (N8) and a 'Days Absent' cell (O8). N8 needs to count the number of "Present" values there are on another worksheet. The other worksheet has dates across the top and names down the side.
When i use
=COUNTIF("Attendance!C9:Z9", "Present"),
and the next date comes along the formula changes to
=COUNTIF("Attendance!D9:AA9", "Present")
ie. the reference moves a column across - the new date's absent or present is not counted. Using =COUNTIF(INDIRECT("Attendance!C9:Z9"), "Present"). is no good because when i add a new name i need the row reference to move down as a row is inserted. ie. both person's formulas count the same row. So, my question: I need the columns to stay the same - C:Z (leyway for future dates) and the rows to change as i insert or delete people from the system.

I have an Excel add-in file (stored .xla format) that is used by a lot of other spreadsheets on a network location because it is modified often, and all workbooks made from a template reference it. everything with that works fine, and any changes made to the add-in file are always reflected upon startup in the workbooks. So there isn't a problem with that. Recently I've had to add a Workbook_Open() sub into this add-in (which I wrote in 'ThisWorkbook'). However, this macro is never entered by any of the workbooks. Is it possible to have a workbook_open sub in another file? If so, what can be causing it to fail (there aren't any errors or anything like that in the sub)?

How can I code to create a copy of a worksheet in an excel file I am using a macro on, after the macro is done processing? In other words, when the macro completes processing, create a copy of the worksheet labelled "Output", and save it in a directory that the user chooses? Also, would it be possible to create a .pdf file?
