Does A Property Exist To Return The Letter Reference For A Column
Jan 24, 2008
I need to build a formular in a cell that uses various columns in it's row such as: =A2+A4+A17+A24. In the past I've used simple number references to the columns (a is 1, b is 2,.....) I can't do tht though if I'm using a macro to automate the creation of a formula, right?
Is there a property I'm missing that will return the letter reference to the column instead of just the number as Activecell.column does?
My alternative is to write my own code to do this, but you know the bit about not reinventing the wheel....

A common task for me is having to manually update the series formulas on charts to conform to some predefined conditions as the data changes. To reduce the strain of this, I've developed a VBA module that will read the various series A1-style formulas of the chart and update them according the the specific conditions. This works wonders on most charts, but I've suddenly run into a situation where Series.Formula property returns ONLY the R1C1 style. That is, where my series formula looks like this in the chart sheet formula bar: ...

For the below formula is it possible to replace the B's (column location) with a cell Say Z146 which contains the letter B (or a number if thats easier and someone can tell me the numbers for each column).
When the formula is dragged into the next cell (down) it takes its column reference from Z147 and then my life becomes so much easier.
=IF(INDEX('Overs-Unders'!B:B,MATCH($C145,'Overs-Unders'!$A:$A,0))"",INDEX('Overs-Unders'!B:B,MATCH($C145,'Overs-Unders'!$A:$A,0)),"")

I have a challenge which I am trying to solve without VBA and I am uncertain how to approach
If I have the following spreadsheet consisting of three columns:
FieldA, FieldB, FieldC
A........3................
B........5........6......
C.................7......
D.........................
E.........................
F........6........4......
The result I would like to achieve is
FieldA, FieldB, FieldC
A........3................
B........5........6......
C.................7......
F........6........4......
So, it means I would like to return the rows where Columns B and C have a value. Is this possible with strictly formulas?

When I used "activecell.column" it returns the numerical value of a column (For Example: Column B would be 2).
I use the following in my
Dim StrRef As String
StrRef = "AN"
I want to be able to refer to column "AN" without having to hardcode "AN" into my code becuase it may change.
Below is part of the Code where I refer to "AN" in context of a loop---
For Each icell In ActiveSheet.Range(StrRef & "7" & ":" & StrRef & LastRow)
I tried Activecell.Address but that return the entire cell reference.

Let's say I've ended up with the number 8 in Cell D4 for example. Is there a formula that can return the letter "G" (The 8th Column) so I can use it in future cell references ? If so, let's say we store that in Cell B5. How do I now refer to a cell in a chosen Row of that same Column by reference to Cell B5 ? For example if I want to refer to Cell G33 can you refer to this Cell in some form like Cell(Contents of Cell B5;33) ??? Don't want to use R1C1 type references if possible.

I want to get value from reference one column and return value by corresponding row from another column. This can be done by vlookup column. But it find value from 1st column and return value from given relative column. That mean find from Left column and return value from right side given column number.

i just want to use vlookup and hlookup to give me the row and column headings for 30 to 40 sesor at a time.... but i keep getting #n/a whenever the functions meet a table of more than one column! (reduced workbook attached)
it should surely be simple to get this data - but i've struggled to no avail. I thought that having the four separate worksheets was the problem - but i haven't had any look even when i dump the data into a single worksheet!
i basically just want excel to return the cell reference of a sensor number which exists in a table. sometimes a sensor can appear more than once, but its not very common and i could happily work around that by doing the manual search (ctrl f, find all).
any advice would be very much appreciated, i'm struggling and the number of sensors i need to test will increase in the coming months.. please help!
should i even be using vlookup and hlookup? ive tried all the other excel functions, but they don't seem to be useful?

I would like to check/search if (FileName As String) is still exists in its directory.
--Why as string: because I have a hidden kollom where the links to the files are in txt format.--
I can't write VBA But maybe I can sketch it?

I have two price lists in workbook. One containing "normal" price list, other containing "action" prices.
I want to search for a product name code from column A in "normal" price list in column A of "action" list, and if it is found to show it somehow in any column in "normal" price list sheet.
This way I know that there is action price attached to that product and that I have to search for the price in "action" sheet.

I am using the Column() Function for referencing purposes... what I want this function to do is return the "letter form" of the column position rather than the "number Form"... is there anyway to change this without switching to R1C1 form?
i.e. Column(B4) yields "2"
I want it to give me "B"

I have recorded some script in excel to import a *.dat file, delete the first 19 rows of data, then export the data as a *.csv file.
My problem is I have circa 30 *.dat files to import, all of which have large file names and I am fed up with copying and pasting them in.
So my question is, in the below code, can I somehow use a reference at the start such as:
abc1.dat = "1"
abc2.dat = "2"
Then where the files were used, reference the "1".dat and its exported version "1".csv for the abc1.dat case.

how I can return the largest letter from an array of letters? e.g. if the array is "A,B,C,D,H,K,L,O,P", the value returned would be P. Kind of like a MAX function, but for letters instead of numbers.

I'm trying to write a macro where I match specific letters from one cell, with a column in another sheet so I can copy/paste adjacent cells. As an example I have a list of part numbers in column A of my Document1:
ex.
C12932-1
C13226-2
I want to be able to find the corresponding part number in column A in Document2:
ex.
C-12932
C-13226
However the proplem is clearly that the part numbers are written differently. So I need to just search for "12932" or "13226"

I'm trying to write a code that calculates 2nd column based on 3rd column's number or vice versa based on the condition set on the 1st column. Below, there are two procedures. "SimpleCalc" and "SimpleCalc2". I first wrote SimpleCalc2, but it isn't working, so I worked around the error by writing SimpleCalc, which selects a cell and moves around by offset. I personally find it hard to read and error prone as I develop more logic around it.
I'm trying to develop more function based on this code, so I need to make it neat and flexible. what I'm doing wrong in SimpleCalc2? Or do you have any suggestion to improve the code "SimpleCalc"? I'm using Excel 2003.
Sub SimpleCalc()
Dim SimpleMethodRng, SimpleMethod As String, i As Integer
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Dashboard").Range("P5").Select
SimpleMethodRng = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Dashboard").Range("N5:P12")
For i = 1 To 8
SimpleMethod = SimpleMethodRng(i, 1).........

I have a workbook with two sheets. The first sheet is the data sheet.
Data Worksheet

104 20 23 CR39601P 104 10420 1042023 1042023SPR
The next sheet is where the magic happens. Separate this worksheet into two sections. The reference section (column A and B) and the entry section (column E-G). Column D is a formula that will concatenate column E-G together. In the entry section any number of combinations can be entered. In the reference section I need to take the style number and reference it back to the data sheet. Then take the possible combinations from that style (column E and greater) and see if any of those combinations exist on the other sheet in column D. If so then say added....otherwise say needed.
"....In Pricing Sheet" is where I am looking to put needed or added or something like it.
A B C D E F G
STYLE …IN PRICING SHEET Concat DEPT MCL SCL STYLE
CR10600S Added 1042021 104 20 21
CR10600SX Added 1042022 104 20 22
CR10603S Added
CR10603SX Added
CR49605S Added
CR49605SX Added
CR39601P Needed
Any ideas on how to do this in formulas and without code? I have tried and looked into index, match, dget and lookup. I just don't think I am finding the right combination of formulas.

I do have a problem with my excel sheet. i have a workbook with 2 sheet which i need to compare a colume of data from sheet1 with sheet 2 colume M2. If it is matched, then sheet 2 colume BJ2 will return a "F" else "N"
So i was thinking of using an If formulae: =IF(M2=sheet1!A2:A16),"F","N") but somehow the above text return a msg of "A16" is invalid. and i tried to used VLOOKUP by defining the mapping sheet as "KEY"
=VLOOKUP(M2,KEY,A2)
and i copy and paste the above formulae to the remaining column M for comparison. Somehow, this did not work as well.

I have got a wordlist in worksheet "original" which looks like:
Before: [Code] .....
I need a macro which merges the columns B,C,D,E and F depending on if there are duplicates in Column A or not. If there are one two or more duplicates in column A,then those should be deleted and only one of them should remain in column A. The members of deleted duplicates in column B,C,D,E and F should be merged together. No duplicates should be made by the process of merging. Each member in column B,C,D,E and F has to be unique. The results are supposed to be put in worksheet "new".Columns B,C,E and F should be merged through signe "/". And Column D should be merged through signe ",".
After: [Code] ......
The macro must be able to deal with very large lists. biger than 200 000 words in column A

I noticed there any plenty of examples of delete row if variable EXIST. But im after deleting rows if an array of string items DONT exist. EG. vList = Array("AWilson54", "ADavey99", "MPaterson44").
its for a varying size document and the column to search through is (AN). Does anyone already have something for this? as i mentioned before there are plenty of search hits on if a value exists but not the opposite.

Utilizing Excel 2009, I am trying to look for a solution that will allow me to compare a column which contains a list of filenames i.e. "832423.wav" to a directory which contains those files to see "832423.wav" is present in that directory such as "C:UsersBDocumentsAudio Files". If there is a match then the row is highlighted. Is that possible?
