Deleting Worksheet Causes #REF! In Formulas
Sep 4, 2006
I have a macro that imports a text file. I then have summary sheets that reference to the sheets with the imported text file details. This is a task I complete every month.
The next month I delete the sheets with the imported text file details before importing current month's details. But when I do that it screws up my references.
Here's an example of a reference with previous months' imported text file details:
= SUM('X'!$I$1:$I$3000)/2+SUM('Y'!$I$1:$I$3000)/2
When I delete the sheets with the imported text file details and import current month's details, my reference suddenly looks like this:
=SUM(#REF!$I$1:$I$3000)/2+SUM(#REF!$I$1:$I$3000)/2
What can I do to prevent the summary sheet from messing up my original references?

I have a Productivity Report that contains very basic formulas that provide totals for 4 columns (B6:E6) and an average for one column (F). I have included two command buttons, one to add a new row and the other to delete a row.
I need to be able to add or delete rows depending on how many employees' productivity I will be tracking on any given week; each row represents a separate employee. I need the following functionality out of my form:
1) formula in column F needs to copy and paste with each new line
2) when a new line is copied and pasted I need the contents to be cleared
3) I need the user to be blocked from deleting the first row (3 on this form) in the table
The code I'm using for my "Add" button is:
[Code].....
The code I'm using for my "Delete" button is:
[Code] .....
The buttons add and delete rows as I'd like them to but content is not clearing, with each row added the contents provide a sub total. I've tried various lines of code (some more complicated and some less) before I recorded my own macro (see above).

I work for a bank and we use an excel spreadsheet that has an in depth payment calculator used for creating monthly payment arrangements or calculating settlements on bank loans. I would like to add the following feature and I'm not quite sure exactly how to do it.
For example, imagine cell A1 will contain the full payoff of a loan. I want to be able to put a settlement offer in B1 and have C1 populate the percentage of the payoff that is. At the same time, I want to be able to delete the settlement offer in B1 and put a percentage in C1 and have it calculate that settlement offer in B1. The calculations/formulas to do these problems is simple, but what I need is to not lose the formulas in B1 and C1 if I were to go back and forth entering settlement offers vs settlement percentages.

I have a large amount of data on a sheet which is being looked at by the following formula
{=AVERAGE(IF(LEFT(RAW_DATA!$C$4:$C$10000,LEN(Dashboard!$I$10))=Dashboard!$I$10,IF(RAW_DATA!$A$4:$A$10000=$A2,RAW_DATA!$J $4:$J$10000)))}
However, i don't need to keep the oldest data so I want to write a macro that deletes some of the top rows. Doing this in the normal way causes the formula above to change. I.e deleting one row cause the range to become $J$4:$J$9999 and so on.
Is there any way of deleting a row without affecting the formulas that are looking at it?

With a macro i want to delete some lines in sheet1. In sheet2 however i have formulas that point on sheet1 .. like this
=sheet1!A1
=sheet1!A2
=sheet1!A3
Now when i delete line 2, the result would look like this
=sheet1!A1
#NV!
=sheet1!A2
Is there a way to make these formulas pointing at the same cells after line two is deleted? And i do not mean a work around, with different formulas. I just want the Formulas in sheet2 to remain unchanged, regardless of what happens in sheet1...

I have a workbook that contains 50 worksheets named 1-50. I need to add more worksheets. all the formulas in the worksheets always refers to the previous worksheet.
How can i make a copy of the worksheet named 50, name it 51 and have all the formulas in worksheet 51 refer back to worksheet 50?

Whenever you insert / delete row or cut cells out in Mon/Tue sheets it's causing issues in the table in the Weekly view tab.
Is there any way to prevent it? I don't mind redoing whole spreadsheet, it was done ages ago in a very fast manner.
I gave you an idea by deleting a row range in Mon tab which causes #REF error.

In a module, I have the following
code: Public Ctl As CommandBarControl
Sub DelSht()
Set Ctl = Application.CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=847)
Ctl.OnAction = "MyDelSht"
End Sub
Sub ResSht()
Set Ctl = Application.CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=847)
Ctl.OnAction = ""
End Sub
[code]....
Where went wrong?

I have been browsing the web trying to find a worksheet event that will automatically open a message box if the user tries to delete the sheet. Is this possible??
PS I do not want them to delete the sheet, so perhaps a message box with a a cancel button

How do you generate an error message that states "You are not authorized to delete this worksheet" any time a user attempts to delete the specified worksheet? This message also has to block the user for deleting the worksheet.

i need to create a macro that will delete entire rows based on certain criteria. here is an example of some of the worksheet:
US0017651060AMR_CORP CM 12C
US0017658669AMR_CORP PR 8C
US00211H1077ATC_ONLANE_INC CM 92M
US00211H2067ATC_ONLANE_INC PR 100N
US0038813079ACACIA_RESH CM 12C
US0038812089ACACIA_RESH CM 16C
CA00440P2017ACE_AVIATION CM 7C
CA00440P1027ACE_AVIATION CM 7C
US00440P3001ACE_AVIATION CM 100S
CA00756J1049ADVANTEX_MARK CM 43C
CA00756J3029ADVANTEX_MARK PR 100N
i want to create a macro that, when searching the third column of data (containing "CM" and "PR"), if a group of rows (between blank rows) do not contain at least one "PR", delete entire group of rows.
Therefore, the rows with "ACACIA_RESH" and "ACE_AVIATION" would be deleted from the worksheet.

I have a workbook where everything is controlled from a single worksheet that I named "Start".
In the "Start" worksheet I have instructions and one command button. When this button is clicked, it will start the VBA code. The code will basically show a couple of userforms where the user will input some information and after the user clicks on a button on the last userform, the code will generate new worksheet and present the results in that new worksheet.
The user could do this as many times as he wants, each time creating a new worksheet or overwriting in an existing worksheet (except the "Start" worksheet). The user is able to delete any worksheets he want.
I need to write a code so that if the user tries to delete the "Start" worksheet, it will not let him/her because then there is no worksheet where I have the button to click to start the VBA code.
I tried protecting the workbook, but then it does not allow to add new worksheets either.

I am trying to create two macros. The first macro will add a button, and the second macro will delete the button. I am noticing that when I add the button in the first macro, Excel is automatically naming the button (i.e. Button 26), and then when I try to delete the button with the second macro, this button name is not recognized. How can I name or set the button as a variable so that I can successfully run these two macros?

how to find a certain criteria and delete the entire row that the criteria is in. I am more interested in finding certain criteria with vba, in my case any text/non numerical values and clear contents from that cell for the entire worksheet while retaining the rest of the cells that have numerical values in them. My data has --- in cells that represents missing data which would be easier if it was completely blank.

I'm protecting a spreadsheet with Excel 2000. For that i used the Excel functionality : Data -> " Validation"
Unfortunately, I can not protect the all sheet or workbook (Requirement). So even if the cells are protected by "Validation", any user can delete the cells using the key DELETE or BACKSPACE on the keyboard !
VBA Macro (which could be activate at each change on the sheet for example...) ? or if it's possible to avoid cells deleting with the "Validation" in the Excel Data menu ?
If it's a macro, it would do :
1 ) see if a user is pushing DELETE or BACKSPACE on the keyboard
2 ) see if the cell contains formulas
3 ) if yes, make a box appears to say that is not possible to delete this cell
4 ) return on the Excel sheet without changes

starting to dabble in the VBA coding, now. I tried finding this solution...but nothing quite the same. I have a spreadsheet with a couple tabs. The main tab is a calculation worksheet that pulls in, and performs various calculations on, data from the other couple tabs. This main tab will be the only one that most of my users will see (query and other data tabs will be hidden.)
What this workbook does is calculate accruals for our consultants, at the end of every month (period.) I am trying to put in code that, when activated by a button, will copy the entire main ("Accrual Worksheet") tab as a new tab, at the end of the workbook....as a period backup to the calculations on the main tab.
I created the below
===========================================================
Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Dim LastSheet As Integer
Dim aSht As Worksheet
Dim Test4 As String
Dim NameXists As Long
If MsgBox("Are You Sure You Wish to Finalize? This will copy sheet, without formulas, as backup.", vbYesNo, "Update Confirm") = vbNo Then
Exit Sub
Else
=============================================================
This seems to work great......EXCEPT (you knew one was coming), I only really want to copy the sheet as data/format only. I don't want the copy tab to have any VBA code, or formulas, on it. I just want a picture image of the "Accrual Worksheet", as reference to the activity for that period. In the following period, the same "Accrual Worksheet" will be used to work on the next month's activities.....and the data on that tab will change. So we need to store the final calculation, for further reference.

I have a workbook with a worksheet called Summary that has formulas that refer to other worksheets (say A, B, and C) in the same workbook.
What I want to do (with VBA because I have to do this many times) is copy this Summary worksheet into several other workbooks, all of which also have their corresponding worksheets A, B, and C.
I do *not* want the copied Summary worksheet's formulas to refer to the old workbook. If I copy the worksheet by hand, this is what happens.
Instead I want the copied worksheet's formulas to reference the worksheets of the workbook they are now in.

Basically I have a template from two different worksheets and I am making one sheet the "master sheet" and the other sheet is filled in automatically from the master sheet. I understand how to get this basic function to work so here is my real problem...
I would like my sheet to look like this repeated 2000 times...
'sheet1'A16
'sheet1'A16
'sheet1'A17
'sheet1'A17
etc.
Every time I try to drag the formulas down to go 2000 rows it starts doing this...
'sheet1'A16
'sheet1'A17
'sheet1'A18
'sheet1'A19
etc.
How do I get this formula to repeat like I have shown in my desired example?

I have a formula which i need to paste into a worksheet, doing this is tedious and boring to say the least, problem is i am not sure how to get the macro to skip blank lines and only insert the formula where there are prices. Each week the worksheet changes so there is no consistent layout.

Split from Copy, Cut, Fill Relative Or Absolute Formulas

If you "cut", rather than copy, Excel will maintain the original cell references in the formula.
Both of these questions are well within the experience level of a user with above average skill level as your profile shows. Please lower it (before one of the Admins does it for you) to a more realistic level.
See this training page on how to toggle between relative/absolute cell references: [url]
Well cutting is a nifty trick, thank you for that, I don't believe you quite understood my first question.
Lets use my calculator for instance. Using something it has designated K (for no apparent reason) I can enter a formula, such as K=*2-4, and after that is entered every number I then type and press equals to it will run that formula and spit out an answer. (after entering that function, if I press "5" "equals" it will give me "6") Now what I'm wondering is if excel has a "K" function that I can assign to certain cells, namely a column, so that whenever a figure is typed in any of the cells in that column, the required operation is done, namely *.9685.

So I am trying to create a budget worksheet for past and future expenses, basically an excel checkbook with running balance
In Column A I have my debits/credits
In Column B I have my running balance so that there is a current total next to each of the debit/credits in column A, it is formulated as follows, it adds the cells directly above it to the cell directly to the left of it (i.e. Cell B10 = B9+A10, which was dragged and iterated to many cells below)
I wan to be able to drag in drop cells in the A column (Just moving them up and down different cells in the A column) with out it changing formulas in the B column.
I tried the $ trick so that for example B10 = B9+$A$10 but if I moved cell A9 to say A10, I get a reference error in cell B10 (why is it doing this when B10 is locked with $)
I then tried going to format and locking the B column and not the A column and then protected the document but I still get the same REF error.
I know I can copy and paste with out effecting it but this is tedious, the whole reason I did this was so that I can move around bills EASILY and play around with what get paid when. There has to be a way to do this, but I'm probably searching with the wrong keywords.

I want to create a spreadsheet table of values that are linked other spreadsheets, a condesnsed version... I am not a total amateur and I understand the world of excel links....
However the problem lies in the fact that the source files change format every day, what i need is a formula for each cell (i know...) that can:
1. Firstly find column and row heading titles by looking for part of the title i.e. for a title like 'Occupation' i need a non case sensitive search for 'Occu'.
2. Once colum and row are found, return the intesecting value.
The formulas are needed so all I will have to do, after this is finished, is update the source files and the relevant numbers will be found automatically.
Im sure this is something that can be done with a clever array formula, setup to recognise column and row intersections based on positve returns on search variables, however this one is just outside my capabilities....
