Sheet Indirection. Refer To Sheets With Changing Names

Feb 25, 2008

I've been referencing sheets in my code directly with things like

Sheet1. Range(NamedRange)

however in recreating a new workbook (to reduce bloat), the sheet-numbering has changed... to avoid having to mess around adjusting things again, I was wondering if it's possible to do some sort of indirection... something similar to

#define SHEET_SC_CONFIG Sheet1
#define SHEET_CUSTOMER Sheet2

'and then use these throughout the code....
SHEET_SC_CONFIG.Range(NamedRange)

(cannot reference by sheet name, as end user may change these)

VBA Select Multiple Sheets Of Varied/Changing Sheet Names

May 18, 2006

How can I select sheets in a workbook based on the premise that the sheetname does not have the letter "Q" in it? New to forum, so apologies if format is not kosher.
I have a group of 50+ workbooks which are all set up in the following format:

-Contains 30+ sheets.
-Sheet names are varied, but follow a pattern. I try to keep the sheet names consistant on all workbooks so that it is easier to reference, but other users make this impossible.
-However, I managed to keep two things consistant: There are two categories of sheets. In one group all sheetnames have a "Q" in them and in the other group all sheetnames DON'T have a "Q" in them.

Here is my problem: I need to run a macro to perform retative tasks on the GROUP OF SHEETS WITHOUT A "Q". To begin the macro I need to select these sheets and copy them to a new workbook, but since the actual sheetnames are varied, I am having trouble coming up with a flexible way of selecting sheets. The closest I have come is using a IF ... LIKE ... THEN statement, but I can only get it to work to select the sheets with a "Q" in the name and not the opposite.

Continual Updates Of Most Recent Information

Aug 12, 2009

I coordinate nearly 200 volunteers for a small non profit using excel. I use excel to keep track of all volunteer information as well as for scheduling shifts. Currently I'm looking for a way to show what the most recent shift a volunteer performed was.

All of this information is kept in different tabs in the same document.

In the "Volunteer" tab you'd find all of the information for the volunteers: name, phone number, email address, number of shifts they've completed, etc.

In the "Shifts" tab you'd find the information for each shift including: Shift Date, Name of Volunteer, Location of shift, etc.

I'd like to find a way to show in the "Volunteer" tab what someones most recent shift was. The only way I've been able to think of would involve a ridiculously complicated series of =if() statements, which would be more hassle than it's worth.

Changing Tab Names Using VBA Script

Dec 30, 2008

I'm creating a spread sheet which contains 52 tabs (1 for each week). Instead of manually naming each tab, I would like to create a VBA script that automatically renames each tab using the following naming convention, wk end 1-2, wk end 1-9, wk end 1-16, etc.

I'm not familiar with how to write VBA code and would like some assistance in writing the script correctly.

Create Array Of File Names/sheet Names

May 1, 2008

Two part question:

1) I'm relatively new to arrays, but what I need to do is generate a list of file names and the sheets within each one. I would like to use an array for this, but since I don't have much experience.... well....that's why I'm here. Can someone point me in the right direction?

2) And the second part of this.... I was planning on using the FileSystemObject to determine the files in a selected folder and loop through that list of files, opening each one and harvesting the required info (file name and all sheet names). Should I use the FSO or is there something built into Excel that might be better (and also limit the number of dependencies for this little "project" of mine).

Changing File Names Within Worksheets

Mar 25, 2009

my formula is as follows: =(VLOOKUP(A7,'[Monthly AR Analysis - Feb09.xls]AR - Current'!$A$1:$I$153,8,FALSE)). I will be using this for formula on about 15 different worksheets ... my issue is the file name changes every month and currently I have to go in and do a find and replace, I would like to have one main page where I could change the file name month and it will change all the rest.

ie: Monthly AR Analysis - Feb09.xls next month changes to Monthly AR Analysis - Mar09.xls .... So basically each month I want it to pick up the new file that has been saved with the new name. So what I would want is to be able to have a cell that I could change the Feb09 to Mar09 and then it would do the same to all the worksheets. I attempted to use CONCATENATE to change file name and it worked but will not work within the Vlookup.

Names Changing In Pivot Table Macro

Jul 19, 2013

I am running into an error when creating a macro to make a pivot table and sum certain columns. I am fairly certain this is due to the name changing to PivotTable2, 3, 4, etc. each time. Is there a way to make the name stagnent so when a table is created in the macro it doesn't error out the formulas? I have an example below.

Code:

Columns("A:D").Select
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Create(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
"Data!R1C1:R1048576C4", Version:=xlPivotTableVersion14).CreatePivotTable _
TableDestination:="Pivot!R1C1", TableName:="PivotTable5", DefaultVersion _
:=xlPivotTableVersion14

VBA Macro - VLookup From 2 Workbooks With Changing Names

Feb 17, 2014

I have a user which needs to run a vlookup daily. There is some formatting involved, especially with 2 exported workbooks...

So I wanted to make her a macro to do it. So she exports 2 workbooks where the names change based off the date range she runs the data for.

I was thinking I wanted her to close excel completely, then run them in a specific order and do the vlookups based of Index Numbers.

I can do the entire macro except for the syntax of the vlookup. I think if i write what I need, you guys could put it in proper syntax:

=Vlookup(RC[-10],Workbooks(2).Sheets(1).Range(A:A),1,false)

Copying Sheet Names And Cell Data Into New Overview Sheet

Mar 21, 2013

I have workbook that has several sheets within the workbook that are set up identical. Each of the sheets in the workbook are for a specific company.

As of right now I have been adding a sheet to the workbook that is an overview for what is in each sheet (the individual companies). Currently I am doing the formatting of the heading and column names manually and I pull the data from each sheet with a VLookup. I have been trying to enhance my VBA skills with coding something that will fill in the appropriate cells from worksheet to worksheet.

What I am trying to do is to populate an overview sheet with cells C24, C25, and B36 being static on each row per sheet. Then each row will be populated with cells C(36, 59, 70, 81), D(36, 59, 70, 81), F(36, 59, 70, 81), G, and H(36, 59, 70, 81). The overview sheet will have the diagram below in a ru

Changing Source Material From Sheet To Sheet?

May 12, 2014

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

=IF(ISBLANK(ConnectMLS_export!S2),(IF(ISERROR(LEFT(C15,FIND("X",C15,1)-1)*RIGHT(C15,LEN(C15)-FIND("X",C15))),"",LEFT(C15,FIND("X",C15,1)-1)*RIGHT(C15,LEN(C15)-FIND("X",C15,1)))/43560),(ConnectMLS_export!S2))

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.

Summary Sheet Of Sheet Tab Names

May 14, 2008

I’ve had a look through the forum and on some of the guides/FAQ but thanks to my ineptitude I have been unable to adapt any of the examples to my specific situation.

What I’m after is this: I need to create a summary sheet for a work book with a variable number of tabs. All I need the summary sheet to do is to make a table of the name of the tab and then cell A17. How would I go about doing this and is it possible to save this macro to my machine/all workbooks instead of just the one?

Look Up Sheet Names

I have about 50 different account names along Column A in sheet1, and the same account name sheets opened in the same workbook. Is there a good formula or vba code that will work for all the values in Column A of sheet1 to look for the same named sheet and return the values off of that?

Changing Value In One Sheet Based On Value In Another?

Apr 22, 2013

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.

Sheet1 A1=9 Sheet2 A1=5 A2=6 A3=9

Prevent Changing Of Sheet Name

Mar 16, 2007

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.
