Circular Reference In Status Bar
Aug 9, 2008How do I add the "Circular Reference" permanently to my excel tool bar? Every time i need to use this tool I have to do the following:
-tools
-customize
-check the "circular reference"
-close
..it appears and I can use it. Then after i type something in another cell it disappears again! I would like it to ALWAYS be in the tool bar as a standard item even when opening a new book/ sheet or whatever. I want it to be a standard tool.
How To Select Range In VBA For Excel Status Email Where Status Not Equal To
May 12, 2014I have some vba code that currently copies a status table out of a worksheet, into a temp file for an email. The status table in excel has a column D which can have different status. I want to select everything in the table except rows that are 'Descoped'. Currently my code looks like:
Set rng2 = Sheets("Execution Status").Range("B2:F420")
This picks up everything without looking at the status. I want to change it so it doesn't pick up the rows where Column D contains 'Descoped'.
In pseudo code I would describe it as:
Set rng2 = Sheets("Execution Status").Range("B2:F420") where value in D5:D420 is not equal to 'Descoped'.
I have tried:
Set rng2 = Sheets("Execution Status").Range("B2:F420").Value "Descoped" and nothing gets selected.
Circular Reference: Cell References In The Formula Refer To The Formula's Result, Creating A Circular Reference
Aug 14, 2006I have the following formula in cell L51 of all sheets calculating the volume depending on the monthly index that is chosen from the drop down menu in a particular sheet. =If(MIndex=0, SUM(D33:L50),If(MIndex=1,SUM(D34:L50),If(MIndex=2,SUM(D35:L50), 0))). I am getting the following message and I do not understand what it is about.
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
Circular Reference ..
May 9, 2008I'm trying to update a cell with today's date based on the choice from a drop-down list in the neighboring cell, but only if the cell is empty.
Source list for cell B2:Rcvd
Passed
Returned
Flagged
If Rcvd is chosen from the drop-down list, put today's date in A1, but only if A1 is not already populated. Don't do anything if any of the other 3 options are chosen.
I can't seem to use the A1 cell in a conditional statement to check it's status without creating a circular reference.
Trying to do it without resorting to VB.
Circular References
Aug 25, 200815.2
13.9
6.1
9.19
and i wanted to divide these all by 4.
I can do this by clicking on a cell OTHER than one of those four above, and do:
=A1/4 (if 15.2 was A1) and copy that formula down.
But then I have the originals AND the new ones in separate columns.
I want to just be able to divide those original numbers by 4 without resorting to using other cells, but if I do =A1/4 on A1 itself it says that i have made a "circular reference"
VBA Circular Error
Feb 8, 2007 Function VLOOKAllSheets(Look_Value As Variant, Tble_Array As Range, _
Col_num As Integer, Optional Range_look As Boolean)
Dim wSheet As Worksheet
Dim vFound
On Error Resume Next
For Each wSheet In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
With wSheet
Set Tble_Array = .Range(Tble_Array.Address)
vFound = WorksheetFunction.VLookup _
(Look_Value, Tble_Array, _
Col_num, Range_look)
End With
If Not IsEmpty(vFound) Then Exit For
Next wSheet
Set Tble_Array = Nothing
VLOOKAllSheets = vFound
End Function
It is a vlookup across all worksheets, it is used on the index sheet. But it is causing a circular error when the search term is not found AND if the formula is in the same cell as the column index cell. I need an expert to adjust the code so that it doesn't do vlookup in the index/current sheet and the recursive error will be eliminated.
Avoiding Circular Reference
Jun 25, 2009Let's say I have a sheet called Category. Column A contains code; column B contains description. Now I have another sheet in which either column F contains a category code or column G contains a category description. I want to look up the code in column F if the description is given or the description in column G if the code is given. I thought I might be able to do something like:
in F2: IF($G2<>"",INDEX(Category!A:A,MATCH($G2,Category!$B:$B,0)),"")
in G2: IF($F2<>"",INDEX(Category!B:B,MATCH($F2,Category!$A:$A,0)),"")
(and then copy the formulae down the rest of the columns of course). In other words, if the cells were both empty then there would be no common dependency; it would just set them both to empty. However, if I provided either value then it would overwrite the formula in that cell so there would be only one formula left and nothing to be circular dependent about.
However, it must be looking at the condition itself and seeing the two columns in common because it is coming up with a circular dependency. I thought I might be able to trick it by having IF(INDEX($G:$G,ROW())<>"",... but it still doesn't work.
This sort of situation must crop up from time to time. How do we get around it?
Formulas (Circular Reference)
Apr 20, 2007I have 2 cells which I will select on a work book; (say A1 and A2). A1 is the input cell and the formula and the result generated is in A2.
Suppose I input 3 in A1 and A2 shows 60, what I also want to do is input 60 in A2, which should show me 3 in A1, without destroying the formulas.
In short both cells will have formula and both cells will be input cells for each other.
Circular Reference :: .02 Of A Total

If Function & Circular Reference
May 17, 2007i got three cells namely; M7, AC7 and BA7. Initially, an input value is entered in cell M7 which will be processed to give AC7. An IF function is entered in cell BA7. This IF function is really simple. It states that IF the difference between the values of M7 and AC7 is greater than 1 then, decrease 0.01 from M7, otherwise, retain the value of M7. The syntax is:
=IF((M7-AC7)>1, M7-0.01, M7)
As I told you, it is really simple and looks fine. I have no problem with it so far. The problem came about when I tried to make the circular reference. I am trying to make M7 to equal BA7. Well, before I made the circular reference, I made a manual entering of the values of cell M7. What I have done was that I put a value like 29.94 in M7 then I let the calculation to proceed. The the value that I get in BA7 (i.e. 29.93), I re-entered it in M7 then I repeated the process until I got a value (i.e. 29.90) that was not changing due to the use of the IF function. The manual calculations are shown in Table2 of the attached file.
I said to myself instead of entering the values manually, I can use a circular reference so that the cell M7 = cell BA7. Unfortunatelly, the circulation of the values instead of giving me 29.90 which is the right answer, it gave me 29.89 which ment that Excel has done one more step further of the IF function. In other words, Excel should have stopped decreasing 0.01 from M7 when M7-AC7 was less than one. This is achieved at M7=29.90 (as clearly seen in Table2). However, Excel went one step further and done: BA7=29.90-0.01=29.89 then it stopped subtraction at 29.89 which is not correct.
Report Of Circular References
Sep 14, 2007I'm looking for something that could report the details of (all) circular references in a workbook.

Sep 25, 2007I've often lurked in the background here and have found great solutions to my problems from the ozgrid FAQ's and email outs.
I have a custom VBA formula that has a heap of ranges as inputs. I loop through one range then perform calculation on the other ranges in the formula.
The formula is to work on 2 sets of data, 1 with more columns than the other. I've set Optional variables for the unnecessary columns.
For some reason I keep getting circular references on the 2nd set of Data.
I've attached the spreadsheet (stripped down) to show both examples.
I'm absolutely confused why the "teaching" one calculates correctly and "support" gives a Circular reference error.
I've set the Iteration in options and this corrects it, however I'd like to know why one works perfect and the other fails?
Today Date Causes Circular Reference

I get the message "Circular References" for the cell the the above "today()" formula.
I do not get circular references in the cell that refer to the today cell, just the today cell.

How To Get Circular Reference To Work In 2007
Nov 3, 2009I have these cells:
http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/427/excelj.jpg
The two center cells are the average of the top, bottom, left, and right cells. Of course the two center cells will therefore reference each other.
I enabled iteration in Excel options but it will not calculate the answer. I am getting a #value error. I checked the cells, the equation is right and they are all numbers.
What am i doing wrong?
See the work book. I had to rewrite everything manually to get it to work (But I have a HUUUGE matrix and rewriting everything will take forever) Please look at the work book and tell me why one group of cells is returning answers and hte other is returning a #value error.
Create Circular Reference Between Three Cells?
Aug 24, 2011Is 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.
Circular Reference When Code Runs
Sep 4, 2009I'm at my wits end trying to work out why I'm getting a circular reference when this code runs:
Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
Cells(Rows.Count, "K").End(xlUp).Offset(1).Value = Range(TextBox1.LinkedCell).Value
With Range("K5").Resize(40, 1)
.FormulaR1C1 = "=OFFSET(" & Cells(Rows.Count, "K").End(xlUp).Address(True, True, xlR1C1) & ",-(ROW(RC)-ROW(R5C)+1),0,1,1)"
.Value = .Value
End With
End Sub
The circular reference cell is K29. I have an "X" in K46 after which all the values in TextBox1 are copied.

Jun 12, 2007Workbook attached. Workbook contains 53 sheets. 52 sheets are identical and represent one sheet for each week of the year. At the bottom of each column is a SUMIF function that member JimFuller1 showed me how to use. The 53rd sheet is where I would like to calculate all of the totals (per item and per first-aid kit) I tried using the same SUMIF principal, applying it to all sheets but I keep getting a circular reference. I asked a coworker of mine and he said that it was due to the fact that the cells I am trying to put in the SUMIF function allready are part of a different SUMIF formula.

A secondary question is, "Am I sacrificing significant accuracy by limiting Iterations from 100 to 10? I'm dealing with $'s, so the nearest penny is good enough.

Feb 3, 2014Very simply, if A1=B1 and B1=A1 - how do I trick excel into displaying a blank cell for the purpose of printing pages?
Further information:
I am working on an evidence log, it's just a spreadsheet with columns for collection info; all of the information put into the log on one sheet, is referenced on a second sheet where the info is arranged in a printable grid to make sample tags.
For some ungodly reason, I have been instructed to make all of the references circular, so that anyone with a particularly masochistic streak can log their information on the tag to populate the log and vice verse
This results in my log and tags each having 0 values displayed in all of the cells, which I didn't think was a problem, until it was pointed out to me that people may want to print out sheets and use them to take notes in field, making blanking the cells my ultimate goal.
How To Avoid Errors With Intentional Circular References
Feb 23, 2014I'm trying to create a basic Excel document intended for use as an navigation log. I'm having a problem with circular references.Here is what I'm trying to do:
True track: A1=B1-C1
Mag. track: B1=A1+C1
Mag. variation: C1
The idea being when you open the document you enter the true track or magnetic track depending on the information derived from the chart. The document then calculates either mag. or true track for you depending on where you entered the information. I then have 25 or so rows of this.
The problem I'm having is that once excel "sees" any circular references in the sheet it brakes down and some other functions stop working. Since you usually don't use all the rows available the document will always contain these circular references.
I know I can disable the circular reference warning and that fixes the issue but as I'm intending to share the log I'd rather find another solution.I tried IFERROR and I couldn't get it to work.
Is there no function similar to IFERROR so that if a function contains a circular reference it will return some fixed value?
Tracing A Circular Reference In Custom Formula
Sep 25, 2007I'm working on creating a custom formula that loops through each row of data and performs a range of calculations when a common number appears in a field (payroll number).
The formula is being applied to 2 sets of data, both are similar however 1 has a few more fields.
When I use the custom formula in the 2nd dataset I keep getting a Circular Reference.
I have attached a stripped down version of the whole spreadsheet, which just relates to the part causing the problems.
On the sheet 'Teaching (Yr1)', the calculation works fine.
On the sheet 'Support (Yr1)', the calculation doesn't and Excel prompts with a Circular Reference.
I've tried using the Circular Reference toolbar to trace the predecessors, however it doesn't highlight what they are. All the inputs are blue, and none of them perform any calculations on the cell/column with the formula in it (unless I'm being exceedingly blind!)
Excel gives the following message ...

I've spent many hours (probably 10+!) debugging the formula trying to ascertain why it's happening and I'm stumped! I've run through all the named ranges, I've changed the formula and still no success.
What I have noticed though, that for some reason the same formula is 'called' multiple times, in fact 3 to be precise.
When I enable Tools -> Options -> Calculation -> Iteration, the formula calculates, however whenever the spreadsheet does an full calculation, it reverts back to #VALUE!

Jun 21, 2013I am trying to make a formula use an IF statement to identify different cells on a different sheet to pull raw data from.
However I've never tried formulas involving multiple sheets before.
This is the formula i get a circular reference for =IF('Store Input'!I6:J6=Lewis,(('Store Input'!C6:D6/1.2)/100*0.75))
I am not entirely sure what im doing thats causing confusion but ill explain the desired effect.
If a Cell has a value of "Name" then take data from cell "X" and do calculation /1.2 /100 *0.75 on a separate sheet.
Further more i want it to apply to multiple cell possibilities. so like the one above except repeated on different cells.
So as well as the above, i want it to perform the same operation for a set of cells further to its right and so and so forth.
Macro: Convert Cell Value Without Being A Circular Reference
Jan 11, 2007if this is possible without becoming a circular reference.
Aim: to have a Macro that takes user selected cell and converts it the result and place it back in the same cell.
Example: could have a typed value in A10 say 500, and when the cell i selected and the Macro is run is converts the value by B10 (.5) and places the value back into A10. ie A10= A10*B10 (250)
I know this is a circular reference but could the macro say take the Value A10 and hold it in a temporary string of some sort before calculating and then returning the new value in there?
Building Musical Scales - (circular List)
Jan 25, 2010I want that Excel writes in a row the a sequence of musical notes corresponding to a certain tonality;
I have in one cell the musical notes, which are validated data that comes from a list and I could pick one from this list:
C C# D D# E F F# G G# A A# B
chosen one of the notes, excel would write down in a row the corresponding chromatic scale for that note. example - choosen A:
A A# B C D D# E F F# G G#
As you see, the scale begins with A, and then when it gets to the end of the list (tone B) it goes back to the beginning (C). In other words, what I want to implement itīs sort of a circular validated data.
Excel 2010 :: Columns That Are Dependent On Each Other Without Circular Reference?
Aug 7, 2014I have two columns of data; one is in inches, one is in metres. If someone is inputting data from an original source that has the data in metres I want excel to automatically calculate and input the data into the inches column. Additionally, if they input the data from the source in inches, I want excel to convert it to metres and input into the other column automatically. The conversion factor from inches to metres is * by 0.0254. I am no expert but after looking for this on the internet I am sure this requires some sort of VBA event code (although I don't really know the first thing about VBA). The excel columns will be in the same worksheet. I don't have a circular reference like I would do using normal Excel formula? I am using Excel 2010.
