I would like to copy cells from one worksheet to another, but have the cells that I paste link to the original document. Is there an easy way to do this?
So if I'm pasting from worksheet A into worksheet B, I would like worksheet B to link to worksheet A.
I have a Piece of Code that copys a Row in my Spreadsheet and Pastes it underneath the original Row.
The Problem that I am having is that within the Row it Copys there is a Spinner in it. I want the Spinner to be copied also but the Cell that the Spinner is Linked to Says as the Original Cell, it doesnt move Down with the New Row Pasted in.
Here is the code that i have written to Copy the Row and Paste it down a Row.
I have this long macro that among other things copies data from one sheet to another.
Once I finished it I moved it onto a shared drive and now when it is run I get a popup reading: "Update Values: Book3.xls" asking me to seach for a file. I think it is trying to reference this other book that was in the folder where it was origionaly written, however there is no need for it to, its just processing data within the existing workbook... Ive used Ctrl+F and searched through the formulas to find book3 and it doesn't return anything...
the popup occurs at a line that is: "activesheet.paste"
how to undo this reference to another book? is there some way to supress it from looking outside the selected book?
I Want users to be able to copy a reference number from a an external program into excel, this works well for single cells but the cell I want them to be able to paste the information into is a merged cell and keep getting the "Data on the clipboard is not the same size and shape blah blah error". What I can do to get this information to paste? Is there some VBA that can kinda trick the cell to believe its single or when pasting it unmerges and then remerges again?

='E:My WorkTestData[CCC.xlsx]Input'!$S$31
Everything works fine. But I don't want the destination cells to display the full formula, but the actual Value only
I thought of a way to build a script that first builds the formula to one cell then Copy Paste Special value of that Cell to my desired Cell.

Goal: I have data that was copied to my clipboard from the webpage source in a Chrome browser. I would like to get that data over to my excel worksheet and insert it starting at "A1".
Issue: All of the pasted data is ending up in ONLY cell "A1" when using VBA.
When I just click in cell "A1" and CTRL-V, the data gets spread across a lot of cells, which is what I am after.
Code:
'------------------------------------------
'Start The Process

' Assigning clipboard data to string variable strClip
Dim MyData As DataObject
Dim strClip As String
Set MyData = New DataObject
MyData.GetFromClipboard

I have created some link formula,
Example
CellA1 has ='Corridor Select- Input'!C5.
I was told by a colleague that there is a function in excel that allows me
to auto go to that linkd source. ie if I double click on Cell A1, I can
automatically go to Sheet"CorridorSelect-Input" Cell C5.
I have a spreadsheet in which I have several sheets, each of which has its own table populated by an SQL query that displays the data per sheet by customer name and then sorts by a status column that is either "open" or "closed" (Open in Descending order) and then sorts by created time (also in descending order). This table is 17 columns wide. Right next to this table, I have another 2 column table that is to be populated by hand. The problem is that the 2 tables don't talk to each other. For example:
If row 3 of table 1 contains an open action, then row 3 of table 2 will contain data pertaining to that action. If the action is closed via the database refresh, then it may move the action to row 10 now (as open is always shown at top) - however the data that was entered by hand in table 2 is still stuck in row 3.
find a way to make the 2 tables communicate and work together?
I cannot make it only 1 table as far as I can tell because the database refresh wipes out my additional manual columns every time.
I've recently aquired a spreadsheet previously maintained by someone else. After my initial review the speradsheet has many links that need to be updated, which I do via Edit-Links, but there are also some links that no longer need to exist. I have reviewed all sheets and some links just no longer exist, however when I try to break the link or change the source nothing happens. I have had the original owner also check and confirm and they have the same issue. Finally I tried copying all the tabs into a new workbook, but the link shows up again.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a periodic task which involves moving some sheets from an existing workbook and presenting it in a new workbook. There are some diagram that I move as well from the worksheet. However, I also move the source data for the diagrams into the new workbook as well. Everytime I do this I need to change the source data to the new worksheet which is quite tiresome. Is there a smart hack to actually point the diagram source data to the new workbook?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have to prepare a monthly presentation for my company. I have all financial data in multiple tabs in excel that have been linked to many powerpoint slides.
The problem is, I update the same excel sheet every month and save it with a different name. How can I change the source in powerpoint to select and update all the slides with all the corresponding tabs.
At present, I use Edit link (ALT+E+K) > Select each slide on the powerpoint> Change source to new excelfile. When I select all the sheets, the "change source" greys out. Hence I have to do it individually.
Say I have Source Workbook X 1, and Destination Workbooks X 4. The Source workbook contains a number of lookup values. I want the lookup values to be maintained in the single Source workbook, and I want this workbook to remain closed when the end users are using their Destination workbooks. It is critical that certain cells in the Destination workbooks have validated data in order for formulas and summarizations to be correct.
I'm happy if the Destination workbooks contain a lookup worksheet (perhaps hidden). In short, I'd like the contents from the Source workbook, Lookups worksheet, to just be replicated "as is" into the Destination workbooks, Lookups worksheet. I then want to do my data validation from that worksheet, which of course is open (data validation appears to only work with open workbooks).
I've investigated the techniques in this link: [URL]
Questions:
1) Are the techniques in that link about the best approach? i.e. an external link plus array formulas?
2) A blank cell in the source workbook (text column but formatted as General) is resulting in a zero in the external link. How can I make the external link exactly match the text as entered in the source workbook?
I have a column who's content is determined via about 6 nested if statements from data on that row. That cell is then conditionally formatted to a certain color based on the text that is ultimately printed from the nested ifs (simply an extra visual legend for the text). All of this contributing info and about 1000 lines items make a very large and difficult to print page. What I am trying to do is a make a summary sheet that simply takes the index number of these 1000 rows and copies or links the conditional formatting of the mentioned cell onto this number on another sheet. I have already linked this status cell and put it adjacent to the index number which works well in that with two columns I can show the index and status but if I could combine the color of the status cell onto the index cell, it would be even better. I am pretty sure another conditional format for this summary sheet would not be possible or be extremely complex since the contents of the index cell I am conditionally formatting have no bearing on the conditions for the format. Was hoping there is some VBA magic that could simply mimic the conditional formatting from one cell and put it on another.

I have two worksheets, one with detail monthly information and one with YTD information. So let's say the three numbers I want to capture in the YTD sheet are in columns B, G and I on the monthly sheet. January's data might be in B5, G5 and I5. February's data is in B12, G12 and I12 and so on.
On the YTD sheet in cell C2 I link to Monthly!B5 and in C3 I link to Monthly!B12 so cells C2 to C13 on the YTD sheet show the monthly totals from column B on the detail sheet. On the YTD sheet, cells C20 to C31 show the monthly totals from column G on the monthly sheet, so cells G5, G12, etc. And finally, cells C40 to C51 on the YTD sheet show monthly totals form column I on the monthly sheet.
In the past I've always created all these links manually. After creating the links in C2 to C13 on the YTD sheet, is there a way to use a formula in C21 that uses the link in C2 to create a link for G5?
On Sheet1, I do have info from A1 - A10.
I copy it, and paste link it on sheet2.
If I add new info in Sheet1 next time (I use a program which populate info auto on sheet1), but this time the info is from A1 - A15.
How do I make sure that ALL the info on sheet1 are selected, and not only up to A10.
It can happen that the next time info is on A1 - A100.
Surely I do not want to select "empty" cells?

I have a protected template and unprotected source worksheets - - - what I would like to happen is for the macro to start and if the source worksheet cell B3 equals "Report Total" then stop - otherwise copy template worksheet then copy 6 specific cells from the source to paste values to specific cells on the newly created worksheet (B_ to C7, D_ to I7, E_ to C9, F_ to K9, A_ to C11, M_ to K11 and then K13=F13-30)
After that then start all over again unless the next row’s cell (B4, B5, B6, . . .) is "Report Total" then stop - - - the row count could be from one to a couple hundred.
Here is what I have so far but I know that with each copy the name will change and as it goes down the source file each row will change and I also need help with that.

View 10 Replies View RelatedI have a "cost.csv" file that contains the cost of the toys. The cost is show in $ with two decimal places i.e. $0.75
I created a new MS Excel 2010 workbook file named as "customers.xlsx" that has four columns i.e. Item, Cost, Order, [Total Amount] columns. I used the paste link command and the Cost column data is linked with the cost column in "cost.csv" file.
When I write order quantity in the order column and then try to use the following expression in [Total Amount] column i.e. "Cost * Order" then I received error due to following reason i.e. "Cost is a text value and Order is a numeric value and excel is unable to evaluate the expression." I have done it by first remove the $ sign from cost using RIGHT and LEN FUNCTIONS.
Now I want to change the format of "Cost" column i.e. I want to show the cost in Euro but not in $. Here I am stuck as I am trying to change the format of the Cost linked cell but unable to change it either I applied the new format, the text remains shown $0.75?
Is this the problem as data is coming from .csv file? If it is then how I can accomplish the task?

When using Paste Special Transpose, it does not allow one to Paste Link. Is there another way to do this besides using a linking formula?
I have a workbook with 3 worksheets (year 2005 data, year 2006 data, and a total data sheet). I used PASTE LINK to display the data from year 2005 and year 2006 on the total data worksheet. The problem I am having is that any blank cells in year 2005 or year 2006 are being displayed as 0 on the total data worksheet. Is there a way to have blank linked cells displayed as blanks? I am working with Excel 2003.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there a simple way to combine Paste Link and the Paste Transpose function? I receive a lot of data in rows that I need to put in columns for display purposes. Using transpose is great for doing that but I would like to link it using paste link so I don't have to keep doing each time the data changes. I have recorded macros to see what is happening when I perform the operations seperately as shown below but have been unable to combine them.

Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteAll, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks:= _
False, Transpose:=True

Average formula that will give an accurate answer. My issue is that I need an average of what has been entered rather than for the entire selection. I have paste link transposed the data as it needs to run on Excel 2003 which can only hold 30 items in the Average(number1, number 2 ... etc) and I need 52. My problem occurs when the data is paste linked all blank cells appear as a Zero therefore increasing the count of the average and providing a wrong answer.
Eg when (1, 2, 0, 3) Average = 1.5 is entered the formula works out (1, 2, 0, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, etc) Average = 0.12 because it divides by 52 instead of 4. As you can see I can't ignore zeros as they are a possible input. What would be perfect is for the paste link to paste the blank cells instead of the providing a zero then the plan =Average(B3:B55) would be fine.
(Note: the new entered data is on the same row but different columns hence the reason for the paste link transpose to get all the data in one column)
I have a workbook with two sheets. The idea behind the workbook is an Interview Guide to be used just before an Interview. For now my problem is this.
Sheet 2 "Competencies" is just data. It stores competencies with their associated definitions and questions.
Sheet 1 "Control Page" is the sheet where the questions will eventually go. The user (Interviewer) will input data on the first two pages which will include name of candidate, date of interview etc. but they will also select 5 Competencies from the already existing drop down menus on page two. From there as the selections are made I wish for a code to copy the corresponding definition on sheet 'Competencies" to cells lower down in sheet "Control page".
I don't see a place to upload a file as I have a sample of the sheet ready to go.
I have the following code in another workbook that is used to populate a cell on the same sheet based on input to cells in column 'A'.
Is it possible to modify this for the attached workbook to select a cell with data (numbers) on the Input Data sheet in column 'E', add text to the beginning, ('CG' in this case), and paste the result to the Import Template in the corresponding cell of column 'A'? I currently have a formula copied to dozens of cells in 'A' but since the number of rows for the Input Template is variable, there are usually cells in 'A' that contain CG but no corresponding data in the rest of the row.
