Changing Column References On 1 Sheet For Automated Entry
Jan 7, 2007
I have formulas in wksheet #1 going down 20 columns (they are all the same formulas). On wksheet #2, I need to understand how to switch all column references in only one column to another (from wksheet #1) to show different sums. Clear as mud? The way I want to do this is by having one cell on wksheet #2 where I change a number from 1 to 20. This in essence would be the column heading in wksheet #1.
Example:
*There are more formulas but for the purpose here I'll use 3 for each Wksheet
In wksheet #1 I have
C24 is =SUM(C14*C15,C16*C17,C18*C19,C20*C21,C22*C23)*12
C55 is =IF(B66=0,"",C7/B66)
C56 is =IF(C11=0,"",C7/C11)
In wksheet #2 I have .......................................
I have a number of statements within the Sheet Event Code (Excel 2007). Three times lately I have added a column and had to go back into the code and find all of the references that needed changing to reflect the new column.
I have been working on this for a couple of days and even tried EE, but to no success.
I have read that Defined Names / Constants should be used as often as possible, but even trying that, the VBA code errors out or "hangs up". Even within Bill Jalen's book (VBA and Macros 2007), there is nothing that addresses this, especially using Intersect.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) Dim rng As Range
On Error GoTo mEnd Set rng = Sheets("Log").[F14:F10000] If Not Intersect(rng, Target) Is Nothing Then If Target = "" Then With Sheets("Log")
I have it all set up already with macros and formulas and such. My next step is to record the sales data ( selected cells ) from the invoice to a seperate sheet I call Cashup. The idea being to record all relevant sales data for the day/trading session on one sheet so the manager can cash up the till run by 2-4 different people during the day. Its targeting a small family run business so security isn't currently the main concern although for future proofing I'm trying to build that in as far as possible. Long story short: What would be a good method for recording each successive sale's data from the same page each time the Finish button is hit , to a seperate sheet in a log format? Currently I have these problems:
1:The operation should record into the next open row on the Cashup sheet and not overwrite the previous record.
2:The record must ignore all formulas and record only the values in the cells . Currently a normal copy and paste results in " N/A" recorded in the cells in the Cashup screen.....( probably since all the data that needs recording is formula generated to begin with )
I have a set of data which is the total monthly sales whereby each customer has several entries.
I have created an automated invoice through a vlookup system, yet i encounter the problem that i need to return each entry for the same customer into the automated invoice. But my vlookup will only return one entry for each customer as it is looking up the customer code and just brings back the first one it encounters, is there any way to bring back all entries for each client?
Cell A1 is calculated by entering a number in cell E1[COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important][/COLOR][/COLOR]. Due to the various formulas used, when cell E1 goes up, the value in cell A1 goes down (and vice-versa - When E1 goes down, value in A1 goes up). Cell D1 is calculated using formulas UNASSOCIATED with A1 or E1.
I can't enter a formula for cell E1 to do the calculating due to the circular reference created.
I need some type of code that will automatically figure out what number needs to be in cell E1 to make cell A1 equal Cell D1 without creating the circular reference.
It is suppose to be that if the employee is "FT" and has worked >=4 years the return is 15. But if the employee is FT and has worked 2 years but less than 4 years then it is suppose to return 10 (these are days off) Or if the employee is FT and has worked 1 year, but less than 2 then it should return 5 days off. And all the others in the column get no days off.
I have tried to do it with structured references and with cell references I get a column of zeros!
I am running a research experiment in triplicate. Upon generation of data for all three, I create an averaged value of the three. I then take this value and do more calculations with it on a separate sheet. I wanted to know if there was a way in which I could quickly generate formulas based on a changing reference cell.
Example Data:
V1A 28 V2A 26 v3A 30 AvA 28
V1B 20 V2B 22 V3B 18 AvB 20
Vxy represents the value of y sample, x triplicate. V1A being sample A, first triplicate. AvX is the average of the three values.
I want to be able to generate a formula that references AvA which can be applied to the cell immediately below to reference AvB. A simple example would be to square the average.
I am trying to do a simple copy and paste of number of cells A42:H76 to another sheet (in the same workbook) and have all the references stay when pasting to the new sheet. Instead when I paste it I get #Ref and the cell formulas no longer point to the right cell (they are all off by the same number because I did not paste the cells on the same row/column on the new sheet). Also, they don't refer to the older sheet where I want them to refer to.
Now what I want to be able to do is when I add a new row to worksheet 1, in this case row 3, then the references in worksheet 2 either to automatically (or manually do it in one simple go) increase by one and now refer to the new row. So the references now become =A3, =B3, =C3 etc.
I want to copy =d8*k10 into several cells, but the references keep changing. I've tried several things that I've found on the internet, but nothing seems to work and the I can't seem to copy to a columnof cells.
I have about 85 files that I need to rename. These files contain data concerning delivery and quality data of each of our suppliers...1 file per supplier.
Current File Name: SupplierA 2012.xlsx New File Name: Supplier A 2013.xlsx
Is there a way to do mass rename the files..
and that leads to my second question...each of these files contain vlookups to 2012 data...which is contained in the a file with 2012 in the file name. I need to replace source data file (i.e. 2012 Index) with the new file containing the 2013 data (i.e 2013 Index). Is there a way to replace that source data across 85 or so files using some time of mass find and repalce? All the cell references remain the same
I have a large workbook with LOTS of large formulas. However they dont contain $ characters before the ranges as I haven't needed to manipulate them til now. Now I am changing the sheet and I cant seem to move or copy these cells without the ranges whithin the formulas changing! Is there a way to do this? If not is there a way in VBA that I can check through selected cellls and enter a $ before all the ranges?
I'm working on an excel report that handles reporting for a large number of people. Another person at work is doing the VBZ coding, and I'm doing the formulas that aggregates the data. which has led to an interesting problem whenever I use a vlookup. I copied the sheets with the formulas from the test document I had been working on to an updated version. And all the vlookups automatically adjusted themselves to reference the document they had been created in. I had also moved over the tabs they were supposed to reference, but they keep looking at the old document. I spent an hour removing the references last night, but I don't want to do it again when I get the final product.
How to get excel to copy a formula EXACTLY as written, and not att in the name of the original document?
It should say =VLOOKUP($A438,totals!$A$1:$AH$63,32,FALSE)
and instead it says =VLOOKUP($A438,'[reporting formulas.xlsx]totals'!$A$1:$AH$63,32,FALSE)
I have one sheet with all the formulas for the entire workbook and would like to copy and paste the formulas from Sheet 1 to Sheet 2...Sheet 1 to Sheet 3 etc. without changing the cell referening in the original formula. I am not too sure how .formula works.
Sub CopyAndPaste() ' To copy formulas from Summary sheet to their respective sheets
With Worksheets("Summary") .Range("R3").Copy Worksheets("2").Range("X3").Formula = Worksheets("Summary").Range("R3")
The problem is that when the data on sheet 2 gets updated and more lines added, the computer changes my formula for the cell on sheet 1 as well. the new formula will change to
I'm working in a workbook with several sheets, the first two collums of each sheet are =to the first sheet. some times I need to insert a line, but when I did that, I need to type again all formulas or drag the previous ones, and format again the cells. is there another way to do this?
What I have is basically a form on the main sheet. Here other users can add and/or delete information in a form. I refer to the information in another sheet with formulas.
Now everything was great when using protections/ validations, to the where they fill in the information, but the problem occur when they are allowed to delete and remove rows.
This is something that I want to allow them, even though I do realise that this is something that many advice against it.
To begin with I found the post about changing relative references to absolute references (ConvertFormula). Still the formulas changes when rows are added or deleted and I would have to redo all formulas and run the macro again. I then found posts advicing on the use of the INDIRECT forumla. This formula was exactly what I needed as the formulas would not alter when rows were added/deleted. Now the problem is a combination of the use of INDIRECT and the the ConvertFormula. Now if I write a formula, for example:
=INDIRECT("'Sheet1'A1")
Then when I try to expand the formula over to the rest of the cells, then the references stay pointing at A1, when I want them to continue pointing at A2, A3, etc...
Now what I am looking for is some way to tell all my formulas, after expanding the original formula, that they should all have the INDIRECT function. If it was possible it would be great if you could implement it in the same way as with the absolute reference, for example:
For i = 1 To MyRange.Areas.Count MyRange.Areas(i) = Application.ConvertFormula(MyRange.Areas(i).Formula, xlA1, xlA1, xlIndirect) Next i
Now the above code sample does not work of course, as there should be xlAbsolute instead of xlIndirect, but I hope you understand my intention. Do anyone have the answer to my problem? Is there an easy way to implement the INDIRECT function into a big amount of formulas?
I'm working in Excel 2010. I'm trying to create a dynamic range, using the OFFSET function. I've got it working beautifully but as soon as I save it and close the Name Manager the range stops working. When I go back into Name Manager I find all the cell references have changed (from C1:C600 to C1048572:C595 - or some other strange range).
P.S. What it's doing isn't so important as when the cell references are right it works. But just for full info: It's an OFFSET function, starting at A1. It will look at a list of companies and use a Match function to find out how many rows to offset (based on where the first instance of a particular company. And it uses the COUNTIF to make the range the same number of rows as there are entries for that company.
I have a built a catalogue of records for various of my companies assets. Each asset has its own sheet in a work book and I have used a vb macro to include an automatic Index sheet at the front of the book. This takes the names of the various tabs, in the order I have them in the workbook and creates a simple listing in column A as an Index List
What I want to do is to build a summary table to the right of the Index List, pulling in a few of the key data points about the assets into a single table.
To do that I need to be able to extract the text string from the Index List and use it to form part of a cell reference pointing to a specific cell in the relevant individual Asset sheets.
I am looking to create a macro that will create a new sheet when data is added on a summary sheet. Example.
1. Summary sheet called "Variations" contains columns that will contain the information needed for new sheet (Columns A to D)
2. When data is entered on "Variations" sheet: Column B, then macro automatically creates new sheet renamed to e.g. VO1 (Number used on "Variations" tab) and is a copy of "Master" tab.
3. Data entered in Column A to D on "Variations" tab is automatically entered onto new sheet created (e.g VO1). Shown is blue on attached file. Additional data is updated on "VO1" sheet and this then links back to "Variations" tab
In the attachment you will see an example of what I am trying to accomplish. What I am trying to do is find VBA code that will move data by date from an (Entry) sheet to a (Historical) sheet. I want to enter a date in B3 on the (Entry) sheet. I then enter data into C3. What I would like to happen is when the data is entered into C3 the sheet goes and finds the same date that I entered in B3 and copies that data from C3 into Column E of the (Historical) sheet.
I have workbook having around 25 sheets and i want macro to merge all sheets except first (summary) in to last sheet ( mergedata ) inpute data will be start from cell A17 in all sheet. also sheets may be add or delete as per requirement. after merge data from sheet name should add after each entry .
Copy "SheetA", and you get "Sheet A (2)". But i want all of the formulas in second, just copied, sheet to reference first one. So what in "SheetA" was =W1 in "Sheet A (2)" should be =SheetA!W1. Is this posible?
If not, is there any easy way to add a prefix to selected range of formulas. I tried Find/Replace, but it ignores the formula and i end up with just a plane piece of text.
I'm having some trouble coding a macro that copies data from one sheet in a workbook to the next sheet in the workbook, and the problem seems to stem from my lack of knowledge about how VBA refers to sheets. What I'd like to do is copy data from a range of cells in the next-to-the-last sheet in a workbook to the same range in the last sheet in the workbook.
Each day, I add a blank sheet to the end of all the sheets in my workbook. I insert some data into it, then go to the previous sheet, copy some data, return to today's sheet (the one I just added) and paste the data. I can record a macro that will do this perfectly, but it only works for the two sheets in which I record the macro. I need a way to change the sheet references so it always copies from the next-to-last sheet to the last sheet.
I'm currently working on a summary page for the defects in the building we are working on.
I've done up a summary page which reference's cells in other sheets which contain a TEXT(COUNT formula. When I goto SUM these referenced cells in my summary page I keep getting it returning '0'.
Example of what I'm doing:-
Defects Column in Summary Page
411 --> referenced from =Basements!L1 --> L1 contains =TEXT(COUNT($C$8:$C$100),"0") formula
56 --> referenced from =Level1!L1 --> L1 contains =TEXT(COUNT($C$8:$C$100),"0") formula
33 --> referenced from =Level2!L1 --> L1 contains =TEXT(COUNT($C$8:$C$100),"0") formula
When I go to do a simple SUM of 411,56,33 via =SUM(D3:D5) it returns a zero?
Could someone show me an alternate way of using/writing this code instead of using RC references to the Sheet1. I am trying to select ranges that dynamically change according to the range of data in the next column. This is the code I have but it is static in the range it chooses.
Any way to always include the sheet name before the cell address in a formula? For example, in my "Summary" sheet, I have a formula:
Code: =A2 + B4/B5
However, without typing anything else, I'd like the formula to populate the sheet name since I will be extracting the formula as text and need the full reference:
Code: =Summary!A2 + Summary!B4/Summary!B5
A way to get around this is to enter the equal sign, then temporarily select another sheet, then go back to the "Summary" sheet where all cell references will include the sheet name, but if there is a quicker way to do it using some kind of property or event in VBA, that would be ideal.
