Comparing Spreadsheets And Highlight Any Errors

Jun 11, 2009

I have 3 spreadsheets that should be exactly the same - with the same data and same positions - is there a way of comparing all 3 to see if this is true and highlight any errors - either by using a master sheet or some kind of conditional formatting

Inherited Wonky Spreadsheets W/ NULL Idispatch Errors

Jul 25, 2008

I started a new job and have inherited lots of spreadsheets that everytime you save give the following error: NULL IDispatch passed to AutoWrap(), and you have to click the "ok" box as many as 30 times to get thru all the errors and save the document. The one document I'm looking at right now doesn't have Macros so far as I can tell.

Identify The Errors, Duplicates, Typos And Such Between Two Spreadsheets Of Over 4000 Rows Of Data Each

Jun 29, 2007

I need to identify the errors, duplicates, typos and such between two spreadsheets of over 4000 rows of data each. The Macro: I got a macro working, but it's not perfect. So far, it can only tell data that's missing on spreadsheets A, or B. However, it can't tell which are the duplicates, typos, etc. Please look at the sample for more details. The code is included in the sample. And for your convenience, it's right here:

Sub difference_general()
Dim frontcount As Long
Dim backcount As Long
Dim diffcount As Long
Dim nosrcflg As Boolean
Dim front_ref As String
Dim back_ref As String
Dim anydiffflg As Boolean
Dim ftnotexistflg As Boolean
Dim invnotexistflg As Boolean
Application. ScreenUpdating = False
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual
Sheets("Diff").Select
Cells(1, 1).Select
Rows("2:65536").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlUp
Cells(1, 2).Select............................

Comparing Information In Two Spreadsheets

Jul 31, 2009

I have two spreadsheets. Spreadsheet A has a column of numbers representing employee IDs (thousands of them). But I need to also have the First and Last Name for these employees to cross-reference. Spreadsheet B has the employee ID, Last Name, First Name. Spreadsheet A is large and grouped in a way that I cannot just sort by the employee ID to match up with Spreadsheet B. So basically what I am trying to do:

Look in Spreadsheet B for the employee ID found in Spreadsheet A. If found insert the information in the Last Name and First Name cell for that row copied into Spreadsheet A

Example:Spreadsheet A
Employee ID
123456
412378
<blank cell>
512345
685217
654553

Spreadsheet B
123456 Alberts Rick
654553 Johnson Mark
412378 Smith John

So I want for Spreadsheet A to compare with Spreadsheet B. If 123456 is found in Spreadsheet B, then put Alberts and Rick in the corresponding cells next to 123456 in Spreadsheet A.

Comparing Two Spreadsheets With Same Data

Nov 20, 2013

I want to compare two spreadsheets with the same data. One spreadsheet is for a certain type of beneficiary and the other spreadsheet is another type. We will call them Spreadsheet A and Spreadsheet B. They both contain Zip Codes and a count of zip codes. (Some of the zip codes is not a 5 digit code, but some letters or letters and numbers.) I want to compare the two spreadsheets and see if the same zip code appears in both spreadsheets and if they do, show them in a separate tab and total the two counts from the two spreadsheets.

Column A - Zip Code
Column B - Count

FIND Method For Comparing Two Columns In 2 Spreadsheets

Dec 20, 2012

I am using "FIND" method for comparing two columns in 2 spreadsheets. So if cell value in sheet1 matches with cell value in sheet2 then copy multiple columns from sheet2 to sheet1 (similar to what VLOOKUP does but I need to return multiple values if the comparison is true).

Values that I comparing are in Column A in both the sheets. Is match I need to return values from about 20 columns (from sheet2 to sheet1). One value that I am returning is in Column B, I was able to get that working. but other values are in columns starting from M. I do not know how to get those values from Sheet2 to Sheet1.

Following is the portion of code that deals with this FIND method

Code:
Set wsTools = Worksheets("AllTools")
Set wsToolParts = Worksheets("Tools and Parts")

Set ToolPartsRange = wsToolParts.Range("A2:A" & lR)
Set AllToolRange = wsTools.Range("A2:A" & lR3)

For Each ToolPartsCells In ToolPartsRange

[Code] .....

As you may notice that the following line brings next column (B) back but I do not know how to get other column values. They are in columns from M to Z

Code:
ToolPartsCells.Offset(, 1) = ToolCells.Offset(, 1)

Comparing Character Strings In Separate Cells In Excel Spreadsheets?

Apr 1, 2014

I have a large excel spreadsheet with alpha-numeric data. I want to be able to compare two cells in different row side by side and return the difference in another cell.

e.g. I have in cell B2, "tom, rick, mike, I" and in cell C2, "mike, rick". I need to compare the cell C2 to cell B2 and return the difference in cell D2 which in this case would be the characters " tom, I". They are separated with "," and they can be in different order as you can see in the example.

Highlight Row And Column Of Active Cell In Large Spreadsheets

Apr 4, 2013

Is there a way to highlight the row and column of the active cell? The highlighting will move as the active cell is moved around the spread sheet. I have a newbie manager that is bugging the pea-turkey out of me! He wants to be able to easily see where he is within some of our sheets while he is in a vehicle or outside on a job site...seems like an "accessibility" type issue, but can't find anything in Excel "Options."

Sum Array #Value! Errors

Sep 21, 2009

I have a workbook with data tabs (one shown here) and a summary tab. Essentially, one inputs hours for people in the Data tab (Tech) that are then calculated/summed to total $ based on rates I have hidden elsewhere in the workbook (not included). I'm trying to bring the subtotal lines (highlighted green) into the Summary tab based on which subtotal and what month/year it is. My formula works fine, except for the fact that it is returning a #Value! due to the "Hrs" heading for each Phase. I don't know why it's doing this because I've not run into sum array issues when mixing numbers and letters before. The error formula is highlighted in yellow in my attached sample, but below is a copy of the formula.

Getting #Value Errors In 2003

Dec 31, 2009

I can not get the following formula to work - I keep getting #Value errors and I've checked the fields and the values are correct

=SUM(IF(Input!$A$6:$A$4006=1,IF(Input!$I$6:$I$4006="DM",IF(Input!$K$6:$K$4006="Bid",Input!$L$6:$L$40 06,0),0),0))

My intension is that if A=1 and I=DM and K=bid then add the corresponding values in L and display. I can't figure out why this formula in another cell and works fine

=SUM(IF(Input!$A$6:$A$4006>0,IF(Input!$A$6:$A$4006<1,IF(Input!$I$6:$I$4006="DM",IF(Input!$K$6:$K$400 6="Bid",Input!$L$6:$L$4006,0),0),0),0))

it is just checking an additional condition of the value in column A

Compile Errors

Apr 4, 2008

I've been using some code I wrote at the start of March to open some files that I've created earlier in the day in order to add to them.

The code worked fine until the month changed. Here is the code I have to open the file I need.

strdate = Format(Now, "dd-mmmm-yyyy")

ChDir "C:DesktopTodays ReportsReports " & strdate & ""
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"C:\DesktopTodays ReportsReports " & strdate & "Date Report " & strdate & ".xls"

Since April 1st I have been getting a compile error saying I have the "wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment".

I am at a loss as to why the code doesn't wok as nothing chaged between March 31st and April 1st.

Count Of #N/A Errors

Apr 3, 2008

What i'm looking to do is input a VBA command to comb the activesheet (which contains approximately 1400 rows, and 32 columns of mixed data and formulas), and determine if the text value "#N/A" appears anywhere on the sheet. If it occurs one or more times, i want it to set a boolean flag to true.

I know of ways to do so by setting a = countif(A:AG,"#N/A") formula in a cell, but unfortunately this is not my solution here, as it needs to be done before the formula is converted to text. A countif does not show a visible value of #N/A if its true value is a formula.

Changing Numbers With Errors: #div/o

Nov 16, 2009

When I run a report, for some reason our system imports certain numbers which have errors, as a consequence when I try and do a pivot table I get a lot of returns showing #div/o!. If you look at the spreadsheet the errors start on line 103 sheet 2 and finish on 2631. Sometime the report can be huge and takes a while to go through these manually to convert to numbers.

How To Exit Out Of Alert Errors

Jan 13, 2014

I entered an activex object command thing.. and now I'm not sure how to exit out of it.. it just keeps alerting errors messages like reference is not valid and other ones depending on what I type in the formula box.

I just want to remove the object, but I can't get past the error alerts.. they just keep coming every single time I click somewhere on the workbook trying to exit out of it.. so I'm not sure how to even get out of it.. I don't want to open up Task Manager to exit out of the entire program because I didn't save my workbook.

Worksheet Activation And If Then Errors

Apr 29, 2014

I am brand new (Day 1) to VBA programming and I am running into an issue when trying to activate a sheet based on the value chosen in my userForm that I cannot seem to solve. The error seems to be a compile error and says I am missing and End statement to one of my If Then statements, specifically:

Compile error: End If without block If

I thought if the If Then statement was all on one line that I would not need an End If statement. In fact, if I try to add an End If statement, I get an error (all proceeding text turns red).

This is the part of the code with the End If error.

VBA Causes Errors When Run In German Settings

Jul 10, 2014

I have developed a process design application in Excel using User Forms to input data. The data are placed on a sheet of a workbook with the majority of the calculations being done by cell-to-cell calculations so that users can view the formulas if they so desire. This application works well in English. We want to use the same application in our German office where it has not worked well.

In order to trouble shoot the problems, I can go to the Region and Language setting under Control Panel and set it to German (Germany). This converts the number format to a period for the thousands separator and a comma for the decimal. This seems to create a lot of problems for VBA that I have not been able to sort out.

To simplify the problem I have written a very simple program. It has one User Form with two text boxes for number input, an Enter command button and a Close command button. Sheet 1 has a command button that opens the User Form. In the User Form, I enter a number in both text boxes and click Enter. VBA code then enters the number from Text Box 1 in Cell A1 and the number from Text Box 2 in Cell A2. Cell A3 has an equation that calculates the sum of A1 and A2. All cells are formatted as General.

The workbook works as expected in English. When I set my PC to German (Germany) the application works as expected when I enter an integer in the text boxes. However, if I enter a decimal such as, in the German format, 10,5 and 5,5, the numbers entered into the spreadsheet are text (left justified) and the sum is zero. I have to enter 10.5 and 5.5 to get the numbers to enter as actual numbers and give the correct sum.

How to make VBA work with the German settings?

Turn Off All #value! Errors In A Workbook

Feb 3, 2010

I have a workbook that contains several formulas that return #value! errors. My formulas are correct and I can remove the error by using an "if" function, but there are a lot of these cells. I just want to make the error show blank to make my workbook look nicer without having to write formulas to avoid the error messages. Is there something I can add in the VBA worksheet function to turn off these errors?
