I'm using Excel 2000 and trying to use the datedif function. I've formated 2
columns as date m/dd/yyyy and left the formula column general I'm entering
dates
A1: 1/1/2002
B1: 1/1/2005
I'm entering the formula in C1
=datedif(b1,a1,"M")
I'm looking for the nmber of months between 2 dates
I get #NUM! for a result.
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'm trying to do this:
=VLOOKUP((DATEDIF(A2,C2,"Y"),H1:I10,2))
It doesn't work, I have found. It's for a spreadsheet that tracks Paid Time Off which which accrues at a different rate depending on how long the employee has worked for the organization. I want to use the VLOOKUP table to list the 10 different accrual rates and hoped that the DATEDIF function could produce one of 10 results that would match the values in the first column of the table.
I am calculating the length of time someone has worked for the company:
Column; Row A1,
Hire Date MM/DD/YYYY
Column; Row B1,
=DATEDIF(A1,NOW(),"y") & " years, " & DATEDIF(A1,NOW(),"ym") & " months, " & DATEDIF(A1,NOW(),"md") & " days"
Which gives me a result like: "4 years, 5 months, 10 days"
I want to be able to average the results from column B, thereby producing the average "years, months, and days" worked. Just not sure how to get there.
I have 2 dates..
09-feb-09
15-dec-09
Is therea way to calculate the number of years? this is equivalent to 0.27777 years.
Is there a way to get this with the datedif or another functiom?
why my datedif function is not working.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen using the following formula datedif will calculate completed intervals (years in this case): =DATEDIF(A1,TODAY(),"y") Is it possible to tweak the formula so that it will round up to the next intyerval? i.e. 16 years in stead of 15 years 3 months and 12 days
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have several cells that I use the "DATEDIF" function to added dates and display as, "1 M 2 D". I need to add the multiple results to get an sum of all of them.
Column C1 is the start date.
Column C2 is the finish date.
Column C3 is a separate start date.
Column C4 is a separate finish date.
I used the following formula to get the month/day count for each separate start/finish dates: =DATEDIF(C1,C2,"M")&"M"&DATEDIF(C1,C2,"MD")&"D". Both give me the result I need. I have blown a gasket trying to add all the start/finish into a single Month/Day number. Sample result should look like this:......
Im going insane trying to figure out how to Average out the data i've accumulated with the DATEDIF Formula...Can anyone please clarify if this is even possible ??
Here's the situation...
I've got a range of data that has been calculated by using the DATEDIF Function (below):
I have a DATEDIF column which I have used to calculate the age of a group of people from their dates of birth. This has produced results in cells which look like this: Age is 44 years, 1 Months and 28 Days
Where I am stuck is that I need to calculate the average of this column so I get the average of the total group. Is this possible?
I am trying to subtract two dates to find out whether an invoice is 6 months past due (regardless of number of days). I use DATEDIF in my formula and it works fine until now. It seems the function takes number of days into account and won't return the desire result when there are 31 days. I want to find out whether the number of months between two date are greater than or equal to 6 months without considering the number of days. I am attaching a sample worksheet for better explanation. As you can see, October is not working right.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI 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 need to calculate the date difference between two dates and get the result in the number of years and proportion of months ie;
20/09/99 to 01/02/02 is 2.33333333 years. I can use the DATEDIF function to get 2 years 4 months as the result but for the calc I'm doing I need it in the format of 2.33333333. Thinking I just need to tweak the DATEDIF a bit but just can't work it out!
I am creating a report and I am using the following Formula with condition.
(IN Q2 in the file attached)
=IF(P2="","Enter New to IMP check Date",DATEDIF(P2,C2,"d"))
Where in P2 is the START Date and C2End date.
P2 = 01 Jan 13
C2 = 10 Mar 14
When I apply the DATEIF formula its ignoring the year differ ace and give a result of 8 days not sure whats wrong here as the "Y" & "M" function works correctly and give proper result.

I set up formulas to count text characters in a range of cells. I'm tracking attendance and payments for a small yoga studio.
All I need to do is count "Y"s for prepaid attendance and "DI"s for drop-ins. I have the formulas working but they are absolute so inserting a row will break my sheet.
=COUNTIF(E14:Z14,"*Y*")
=COUNTIF(E11:Z11,"*DI*")
I need to calculate the difference in Years, Months and Days between:
Date 1 = TODAY()
Date 2 = 4 years after a date in cell A1, which will always be earlier than today's date
(A bit of backround - I have certain risk management procedures that have a lifespan of 4 years. I want to calculate the time between now and 4 years after the date the procedure was completed, essentially to see how long before they have to be redone).
So far I have:
=DATEDIF(A1+4,TODAY(),"y")&"y "&DATEDIF(A1,TODAY(),"ym")&"m "&DATEDIF(A1,TODAY(),"md")&"d"
But that returns #NUM!.
Removing the +4 obviously just calculated the difference between the date in A1 and today, but I need the date in A1 PLUS 4 years and today.
I have also tried:
=(DATE(YEAR(A1)+4,MONTH(A1),DAY(A1))-TODAY())/365.25
which works in theory, however:
a) no consideration for leap years
b) does not return nY, nM, nD - only the decimal.
However I would be happy to use this method if I could convert it to Years Months Days.
I'm trying to calculate the number of days between dates in column A and B. I've looked at the examples in this site and thought I used the formula correctly, but the cell returns an error message when I type: =DATEDIF(A1,B1,"D")

I'm trying to do a formula that references a cell and returns a different result dependant on the number in the cell being referenced.
For example I've said if A1 has a 3 in it then put the word TEST as the result, plus if it has a 4 put the word RESULT.
What I wrote as my formula is as follows-
=IF(A1=3,"TEST")+IF(A1=4,"RESULT")
It works fine when I only use one result but goes wrong when I add two. If I change the words I want to show to numbers it comes up fine but with words it just returns a Value error.
I have 2 inventory reports: what my store has and what my supplier has. I need to copy Tab1:K# to Tab2:T# provided that Tab1:A#'s contents match Tab2:A#'s contents. The A column represents the SKU of the item, but there is a difference in the amount of SKU's in each (my store sells ~6,000 items, supplier has ~10,000 items), so it's not as simple as sort by column A and copy pasting column K to column T.
For instance:
On Tab 1, A2's value is [1], K2's value is [9.38].
On Tab 2, A70's value is [1], K70's value is blank, but I need it to be [9.38], to match Tab 1's respective SKU.
I almost thought I had it figured out with VLOOKUP, but I cant seem to get it right... It doesn't reference the correct number.

Assume I have a cell M24 with a formula like
=M10 + $H24 - $I24*0.35
As you can see B10 is a fix reference (due to omitted $) which should NOT be auto-adjusted but be kept.
Now I want to copy the formular to lots of cells below cell M24. therefore I mark cell M24 and click copy in context menu.
Then I drag/expand the blinking cell border to lets say the 20 cells below. As I result I expect e.g. in cell M25 a formula like
=M10 + $H25 - $I25*0.35
Unfortunately I got
=M11 + $H25 - $I25*0.35
So the fix reference is adjusted as well.
How can I tell Excel 2007 to NOT auto-adjust fix references in formulas?
I'm using Excel 2003 and I'm trying to make my LINEST function and the source cells for a scatter graph use the cell range specified in another cell in the document. I figured out that it was simple to do the following:
I250 contains: 10, shows: 10
I251 contains: ="I"&I250, shows I10
But I can't figure out how to do this in a larger function. I've tried a few things but none of them work. Here is an example where I want it to do a LINEST with y values in cells Ja - Jb and x values in cells Ia - Ib (where a and b are integers specified in cells I250 and J250 respectively):
Below is my code which isn't formatting the cells it's suppossed to. It looks like it isn't doing anything. I think the issue might be with the highlighted section of my code, but when I go to "Manage" my rules for conditional formatting, excel references the appropriate cell under the "Applies to" section. I am using relative cell references for for the majority of the rest of the code and this section follows a section that selects the correct cell for this conditional format.
Code:
Selection.FormatConditions.Add Type:=xlExpression, Formula1:="=""ABS()>.005"""
Selection.FormatConditions(Selection.FormatConditions.Count).SetFirstPriority[code].....
I want to do a search for the amount of people of a certain age in a column, but I want to be able to vary the amount of cells I look in. So first I might want to look for people aged 15 in A3:A35 and then in A3:A55 to see if there is a difference.
Now the optimal way to do this, in my opinion, would be to have a reference that looks like A3:A(B1) and then have the number of the last cell I want to look in in B1, in this case either 35 or 55.
I'm trying to copy a file from one directory to another directory. However, the source directory, I'd like to have it so it's created from values within specific cells on a Sheet named "PULL".
When trying the following, I get an error permission denied.
My macro uses the solver 100 times. Everything is working well, but it's a little bit slow because of all the cell references.
I was wondering if it's possible to use the solver with variables without cell references?
I'm looking to do something similar to a Paste Special -> Transpose, but rather than pasting values or formulas, I want to paste cell references to the cells that I just transposed.
E.G.
Sheet 1:
A1 = 1
A2 = 3
B1 = 2
B2 = 4
Sheet2:
A1 = Sheet1!A1
A2 = Sheet1!B1
B1 = Sheet1!A2
B2 = Sheet1!B2
This would typically be an easy exercise, but I have a set 205 rows long and 12 columns wide. A little long to do it one by one.
If I have values in cell B5:B8
B5=0
B6=3
B7=7
B8=10
I want to have a standing formula in Cells J2:M2 that will always reflect whats in those cells. I don't want to use transpose nor do I wnat something as simple as J2=+B5,K2=+B6,etc.
I would like to know if there is a formula that would add the values in a certain row to a cell
For instance:
I want J2 to reflect what is in B5 AND I want K2 To reflect what is in B5 plus a row which would be the value in B6. I have a reason for doing this as I am going to import 120
ranges beginning at a1 to I30 on each sheet while having the sheet I am importing to have these formulas starting at J2.
I tried using +cellnumber+row, but it just gave me the row number and not the actual value in that cell.
Here is what I have at present:
At the beginning of a loop, my cursor is positioned on a row. I want to test two cells on that row.
Depending upon the result of the two cells, I want to make the row a certain color.
After that, I then want to move down to the next row, test the same two cells in THAT row, color accordingly and loop again until I reach the bottom of the spreadsheet.
My problem is this:
If I can use a loop that lists various conditions, along with the corresponding statements that color the row accordingly, how can I when finished increment the cell references so that the conditions change to refer to the cells the next row down?
If a loop is not possible, any suggestions you have for solving this problem would be appreciated. I have about 200 rows so am trying to condense my code; this may be hampering my ability to figure out the solution.
I am trying to code the following in VBA. Excel Cells have formulae like: '=+BZ165-BZ163-BZ162-BZ160-BZ159-BZ157-BZ153'. Now I want to write code in VBA which will be able to give me the individual cells referenced in this formula: BZ165, BZ163 etc. These names can be stored in individual variables or arrays.
I will then use these for further processing. Note in cases where formula refers to data in another sheet like: '=Projects!P49' or data in another excel like '='C:Documents and SettingshoskopDesktop[Annual.xls]Quarterly'!BA$502': I would like to store the path , file name and sheetname in variables/arrays as well.
Any pointers as to how I should approach this problem?
