Changing Data On One Sheet To Reflect Changes On Another?
Jul 1, 2013
My goal is to have changes done to one sheet reflect on to another to make things much more easy to do. Below is a picture of what I am dealing with. ( I covered some personal information)
pic of excel.jpg I want to be able to plug in something or delete it and have it reflect to all other sheets. Also I would like to be able to plug in some information and have it export itself based on a specific information. For example, I would want all Newark,NJ contacts to be place in the Newark list automatically.
I am running the formula =VALUE(RIGHT(CELL("filename"),15)) to read the tab name in a workbook with 90 sheets. When a new account is opened, the operator inserts a new sheet from a template (which contains the above formula), and labels the tab to the account number. The formula then 'reads' in the account number and performs look-ups based on it.
The problem is that the sheets are only working when the sheet is active. They all seem to reflect the data in the active sheet or give me a #VALUE error. Where am I going wrong? How do I fix the problem?
I have a workbook, everyday 2 new worksheets get added to reflect the previous day's work. How can I reflect in a formula to go to next sheet instead of the conventional naming 'Sheet1' G7?
I am running a macro to create a combined master summary sheet from data in several other sheets contained in one workbook. That is working fine. I need to create some kind of refresh macro so that when data in these sheets change the master sheet will change and update automatically.
I've compiled data into a spreadsheet which indicates the number of homes sold over the course of 3 years (from 1/1/05 to now) along with their price per square foot, sale price, year built, bed/bath count, and other pertinent factors regarding each property.
I've extrapolated graphs from these in the past which indicated the trends in each category over time (i.e.: Average quarterly price per square foot over time, and so forth).
The data range I'm working with now, however, is from an area of my region so small, that the number of units sold over the past few years is sporadic. Whereas it's normally 100 to 1000 units that comprise my data, now it's only 15 units.
This has created gaps in my line graphs where the price per square foot will dramatically drop down to zero over the periods in time where no sale was recorded. So the line graph ends up looking like a zig-zaggy range of peaks reflecting the price per square foot of a sale, and valleys representing "$0.00" for periods of time where nothing has sold.
To have a Price per square foot of $0.00 is incorrect since in reality nothing was sold.
I would like to be able to eliminate the portions of the graph that have the "$0.00" so that the line graph can "jump" from one sale to the next when the quarterly data indicates 0 units sold.
I'd like to do this without having to eliminate those areas in my spreadsheets. Is there any "catch-all" tool that might do this or is that just crazy talk?
I am trying to collect data from a darts team and these values reflect the number of points won in a team game (ranging from 0 - 3). This will probably be simple for the experts here, so I'll let fly:
I have a table with six names across the top. In the rows below there will always be two cells that have number values ranging from 0 - 3 while the rest will be blank. Those two numbers however, will always be the same. I am trying to write a formula that will determine which columns have values and return a single letter value (first initial) for each name. Since all the names are different that is not an issue...
I have several ComboBoxes & ListBoxes on a Userform that populate by referring to Dynamic Named Range in the RowSource property. Also on the Userform is an area to edit/add/delete items in these named ranges. If I Add or Delete an item, the Named Range does not automatically resize--or at least the Menus don't "resize" accordingly--unless I unload the UserForm and load it back up. Is there a way to refresh these Comboboxes without reloading the UserForm?
I have a column line chart to which I add data monthly and then have to manually update the "source data" to reflect the added data on chart. This is a rolling graph, which mean that I have to remove data for one month(from last year) and then include the new month's data. Is there any way on automating this process...like a macro or something, so once I add the data excel automatically removes one month of old data and make changes to include fresh data. Eg Currently chart is based on data from A2:F2 and I add new data to cell G2. I need something which automatically update the source data to cell B2:G2.
I have a workbook that includes 4 seperate sheets that are used to record time and expenses for 4 members of staff. I want to write a macro to select the data I need from each sheet and colaberate together in a 'data' sheet so I can combine all the info to run time and expense reports per client showing combination of all time and expense incurred from all 4 staff.
I have named cell ranges in each of the 4 time-sheets. I proceed to record a macro, select the first named range, copy and paste into my data sheet, do a control home then control down arrow, then one more down arrow to get to the first blank cell and repeat the process for all four time-sheets.
This works until I add a new line and then the data will only appear for the last time-sheet (last row of data).
I have a data sheet (Sheet 1) which consists 1000 lines of data (1000 rows and column til DP all different). This is the data of all theprojects that my team undertakes on a monthly basis. Sometimes the data might change on in column AG to AL. I want to put the details of the changes to be done in Sheet 2. The unique value here is the project ID.
What i want is: I will create a table in sheet 2 and update the details that will need changes and it should directly change in sheet 1.
I have been working on a workbook that uses as a source information on Sheet 1.
Sheet 1
Each item reports a number of different details from column A to column BY.
Each row is for a different item.
25 rows of information.
Sheet 2
This is my master formula sheet, the one I've been using to create the page that reports and formulates information on a single item. The source for this sheet is taken from the cells in Sheet1!Row2.
Now that I have the sheet pretty much finished, I want to paste the same report on each succeeding page for a total of 25 sheets. I can copy Sheet2 and paste into each successive sheet, but then I need to change every single formula so that where it said AT2 it changes to AT3, where it was H2, H3, etc., from A to BY.
Problem: Can I use something that will automatically take the information for succeeding sheets and take as its source the succeeding row from the source page?
I don't know that I'm describing that sufficiently, so:
Sheet 3 would take as its source Sheet1, row 3. Sheet 4 would take as its source Sheet1, row 4. Sheet 5 would take as its source Sheet1, row 5. Sheet 6 would take as its source Sheet1, row 6.
Etc., etc.
In the past I used the find/replace function, but this sheet seems way too complicated for that. As an example, one cell alone on my master sheet is
so I would need to change S2 to S3 everywhere it appears, but there are probably more than a hundred places on the sheet that I'd have to manually change 2s to 3s, etc., for 25 sheets, which is why I'm wondering if there isn't a better way than going cell by cell, sheet by sheet.
I have a master worksheet with due dates for various forms to be completed. These forms are on separate worksheets within the workbook.
I'd like to highlight the master date entry in red if the form hasn't been completed by the due date, but also highlight in green when it has been done.
I've seen it done, and had the formula on a couple documents, but had a loss of data. What I'm looking for is the formula to enter into a cell for copying the name of the worksheet into that cell.
I am trying to sum the details from sheet2 in sheet3. I am currently using a plain formula to sum-up the values. However, create a indirect and vlookup function to sum the values.
In sheet3, I have to sum the values from sheet2 based on the contacts. Sheet1, sheet2 and Sheet3 are connected and any update(insert,delete.. etc) will be made in sheet 1 only. Sheet2 automatically updates based on sheet1. Similarly, Sheet3 should also update based on sheet1 and sum the values based on contacts from sheet2.
I have added the formula which I am currently using in the sheet.
I have a spreadsheet that references another spreadsheet, however the other spreadsheet will get updated from time to time. When it's updated the file name changes to reflect the revision:
When this file is revised the "...R001..." will increment with each revision but the rest of the file will stay the same.
Sometimes I have to reference a file in another directory: "C:Projects9-030_Brazil1 Design9-030-R00-Inst_Database.xls"
I was planning on placing information in the following cells of this spreadsheet ("C:Projects9-022_Tunisia1_Design9-022-R001-Cause_&_Effects.xls):
Cell A1 - Project Number (i.e. 09-022, or 09-030) Cell A2 - Project Name (i.e. Tunisia, or Brazil) Cell A3 - File Rev Number (i.e. 1, 2, 3, etc.)
I was thinking my "INDIRECT.EXE" would look something like this: =INDIRECT.EXE("'C:Projects"&A1&"1_Design["&A1&"_"&A2&"-R00"&A3&"-Cause_&_Effects.XLS]Index'!Q5")
The value on the spreadsheet tab "Index" that I'm referencing in cell Q5, is "FG-5901" but all I'm getting in the spreadsheet were this formula resides, is an error "#NAME?"
Part of my problem is that I don't fully understand the function of the "&" symbol in the formula. Sometimes I've seen it placed on both sides of a cell reference (i.e. &A1&), and other time only at the being (i.e. &A1).
I need to change cells to reflect new costs. Then have these costs roll into new totals. I attached a worksheet to demonstrate how it works. The numbers in gray should be adjustable. The numbers in tan are summing up incorrectly with my "SUMIF" formula.
Im trying to capture the first instance of a value(ie 1) and reflect the top row of the value (date). I cant seem to make Hlookup work. I got it to work on the first line using index and match, but when i tried to copy it on the succeeding cells, it gives me the wrong data.
I have a chart with 8 series of data, 4 of which reflect actuals and 4 of which relates to averages of the 4 actuals of a period of 5 months.
The 4 actuals series are represented by bars on the chart and the 4 averages are represented by lines on the graph.
When viewing the chart it shows 4 bars per period (for each of the actuals) and 4 lines (for each of the averages per period)
How do I get the avergaes points (reflect by lines) to start above the actuals they are averaging? At the moment the points are bang in the middle of the 4 bars in the chart?
Not sure if I have explained my problem preoperly but if not I can email a file showing what I mean if needs be.
I have a workbook with multiple sheets. Each sheet has a title (just words in a cell). Is there VBA formula that will have the sheet take the name of the title and also chnage when the title name changes?
A workbook that has a main sheet, and a few other sheets that main data is copied to. The main sheet is a complete list of work, the other sheets are split down to each machine we use here, to keep track of machine capacity.
What I want Excel to do:
Each works order has a number of hours attached to it (Which is manually entered on each sheet). Once a week a button will be clicked and the VB code needs to look at the different machine sheets, and do some kind of lookup between the works order number on the main sheet. If it says "Complete" in column H on the main sheet then it needs to put the number of hours to zero on the machine's sheet.
I have a cell that is being populated by a formula. Is it possible that every time the value of that cell changes, the new value goes into the next available cell on another sheet?
I have been searching for a way to prevent a user from changing a worksheet name. I ran into some code from the post below (see link) but I find that the code lets the user change the name and save the changed name of a sheet; only when the user selects a different sheet does it change the name back to the set name (sname) from the code.
I'm sure there must be a way to make this happen without deactivating the sheet, but I can't figure it out. Is there some other sort of event that could cause this to happen.
Is it possible to make a worksheet smaller. What I want to do is to be able to tab from, a1 to b1 to c1 to d1 etc up to g1 and then if I tab again it goes to a2. Is this possible? Is there any way of making it skip the a coloumn when tabbing even if it has data in it?
I want to capture data from another workbook each month where the sheet name that I need the data from changes each month. i.e. 0810, 0811, 0812, 0901. Are possible sheet names. I've tried to build this unsuccessfully into the my -
