Dropdown To Link Other Sheet And Lookup Data For Last Cells
Aug 6, 2014
I have 4 sheets from sheet1 to sheet3, I typed code date and quantity which the code has 5 columns. In sheet 4 I have defined dropdown in I2 Cell(yellow fill) which has all code fromsheet1 to sheet3. So my purpose is that in sheet 4 I want to select code in I2 cell then it will appear in code column date and quantity automatically for the last cell of date and quantity. Note: I'm looking only the last cells when I select the code in dropdown.
First sheet has a client name and several cells of data along the same line. All of the data on this sheet is kept long term.
The second sheet is completed copied and deleted. In completing the second sheet the client name is selected of a drop down list and pulled from sheet one.
What I want to do and not sure if there is a way is that when I select a client and populate it on sheet two I would like the related data on that clients line from sheet one to populate to same named lines on sheet two.
if this is possible and if so provide a brief description of how it would work
I want our sales people to be able to select from the list of products we manufacture and have they corresponding information automatically populate. For example, if the salesperson is trying to put a quote together for 500 lbs. of Stainless Steel nails, they can select the correct size and have the list price, cost, margin (etc...) fill in the adjacent cells automatically.
I am looking to find the best method of pulling data from a Lookup Table I would like to set up a drop down with all the relevant Steel Sections we make it work and have it access the information and display just that information a separate face page. The information I have set up on the lookup and have named ranges fro them all But how do I get the drop down to trigger the process.
How do you sum data from several cells that derive there answer from a lookup formula that is base on a selection from a drop down menu in another cell. The 6 drop down cells have the same ten items to choose from. Once those items have been chosen I am trying to summarize those six cells to ge a total for each of the item chosen.
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 workbook that I am trying to get easier to work with, I have sheet 1 that my product codes,cost,mark up % and amount sold etc. and I have sheet 2 that has suppliers order No's, Cust name/email etc. and the At the moment in my example I manually hyperlink AE2 in sheet 1 to A2 in sheet 2 - and I manually copy cells P2 & Q2 in sheet 1 and paste link into E2 & F3 sheet 2.
I want cells E2 & F3 in sheet 2 to automatically link to their corresponding cells in sheet 1 P2 & Q2
I'm trying to write some code that links to certain sheets if certain cells are clicked. My sheets are named "01", "02", "03", ... , "20", ... "XX". I'm hoping I can use some loops to reference the names of the sheets since they are in a number format, but "j", which is how I tried to link cell rows with a corresponding sheet, in the code below doesn't cooperate. fix this or can you simply not reference sheet names this way?
If ActiveCell.Column = 4 Or 5 Then For i = 5 To 7 j = i - 4 If ActiveCell.Row = i Then Sheets("0j").Activate Exit Sub Else End If Next Else End If
So I have a set of data in my sheet 2 that I want to be connected to sheet 1. The data in sheet 2 looks like this,
NO Reaction H S
1 2Fe2O3 + 3C = 4Fe + 3CO2
105690
120.21
2 Cr2O3 + C = 2Cr + 1/2CO2
218,085
59.24
while in sheet 1,Reaction No
Carbothermic Rxn
H
S
What I want to do is that when I put a reaction no (e.g 1) at the empty cell next to the label Reaction No, the data in sheet2 (i.e. Reaction, H and S) would automatically be reflected in the empty cells next to Carbothermic Rxn, H and S.
once I get the pretty boxes and such, how do I link this form to a sheet to record data? How do I get it to run? I have tried searching the forum, but it seems that most of you already know that part and don't have any problems there.
I know this is probably very very basic and I will smack my face with my hand when you point it out. I just have never created forms with Excel before. I am used to using SalesLogix and when I create forms there, I have a database table that I can link each field to, so I keep looking for how to link to the table and I can't figure it out.
I have 2 sheets that are used for an inventory that tracks hours on a tool that we use where I work. One sheet allows the user to add items to the inventory along with the current hours on the items. On another sheet, I have several dropdown boxes based on the category of items that are autopopulated with the item's serial numbers through data validation. So far, I'm only able to have the serial numbers fill the dropdown boxes, but I also need to have the hours associated with the individual serial numbers transfer over to this sheet as well in the cell adjacent to the dropdown list.
I assume the pseudocode for this would be for each cell in the dropdown sheet, if it matches a cell in the inventory sheet, grab the cell's value in the hours column and paste it into the adjacent cell on the dropdown sheet, but I'm not sure how to do the actual VBA for it. I've included my sanitized workbook so you get a better idea of what I need.
I have a column of data that constantly changes in length and want this column to autosort the data alphabetically when the data changes. the list contains the names of worksheets
I then want to display in the next couple of columns data from the worksheets listed in the column. i know i can do this manualy by saying that that the cell equals sheet? cell etc but was wondering instead on putting in a formula of ='A sheet'!E20 i can put something where A Sheet is that uses the name in the column of data ?
I am trying to associate pictures to a dropdown box. The pictures are on a separate sheet. The picture is to be displayed on E20 and the drop down box is in K20. Im not very good at VBA and I accomplished this once before using the =INDIRECT function. But for some reason it is not working now.
I have a work book that contains various sheets with different information. I have two different categories in one of the sheets,1 which contains counties and the other containing districts.
I have done a validation for the county which allows me to pick a county from a drop down list which works fine.I would like to create a drop down list for the districts aswell such that when i select i.e southyorkshire from the counties dropdown list,the districts drop down list will bring only districts in southyorkshire,excluding all the other districsts.hopefully i'll like the same to apply to all other counties.
I have one drop down list in cell A1 and another in cell C1 with the same data. When I select something in A1 I want it to change in C1 also and the other way around. Is this actually possible?
I have a drop-down menu which selects the type of product my company sells. On another sheet I have a 2-column table which lists product type (redundant with the drop-down) with its corresponding accounting code. I want to be able to select from the drop-down menu the product in question and have Excel lookup the accounting code associated with that product and display it in a column next to the drop-down. For example, on Sheet A, I select from the drop-down Frogger. Excel then looks at the table where I list out all products (Frogger, Tetris, etc) with their corresponding accounting code (1,2,3 etc) and then in the column to the right of the drop-down, it displays the corresponding accounting code.
I need to create a Macro that will link Horizontal data to vertical data in a separate sheet. Here's the Example:
I have data in a forecast spreadsheet that is horizontal, So, J2:U2 (12 columns for 12 months). This row of data needs to be linked in a single column of data on a separate sheet called "Price_Quantity". So I need C3:C14 (in price_quantity sheet) to be linked to the data in J2:U2 (in forecast sheet). Then C15:C26 needs to be linked to J3:U3, so on and so forth. 12 rows linking to 12 columns. All the way until C4959:C4970 is linked to J415:U415.
I'm trying to make a floor plan which shows what seats are available depending on the time it is. So I made sheet1 = to the map (where the seats are located), sheet2 - rows = seat #'s, columns = Time (broken down by half hours). Now i have conditional format to show "t" in red (which means taken), "f" in blue (which means free), and "n" to show in gray (which means not working).
What i need is example - Seat # 200 in sheet 1 to show red, blue, or gray depending on the value in the row that corespond to this seat and the column that corespond to the current time.
I am trying to figure out the excel formula I need for a project. Basically i am try to do a lookup for Country/State. What I have is a column called Country and once called State on the first worksheet on the second I need to do the calculations that will allow user to select Country and the when they click on the State it shows only the related States based on the Country which are loaded on the second worksheet.
(EG.
COUNTRY = United States - will return/diplay in dropdown
I want to be able to paste the large amount of data I get each day into the first sheet in my workbook ("data dump" sheet), the data will be formatted in the way i have used in the example workbook.
I then would like to be able to just have to enter 2 values into columns A and B of "1st output" sheet (Label in A, and Item in B), then have it look up the data that corresponds to those 2 values that are both in the same row in the "data dump" sheet, and have it copy and paste all of the relevant data in that row into the row in the "1st output" sheet.
The data I would want excel to find and place for me in the first sheet is highlighted in yellow
As a way of keeping track of this every day, I then need the data from the "1st output" sheet, to be fed into the "2nd output" sheet. This sheet would have all of the peoples' names already in it, but would just need to look in the "1st output" sheet for references to these names. If one of the names pops up, I'd need the date shown in the row of that instance to be placed after their name. This will allow me to keep a log of how many times their name gets flagged up, as well as the dates on which it happens. Again, the data I'd need excel to look up in the "2nd output" sheet is highlighted in yellow.
If there was a way of having the 2nd sheet add new names it finds on the 1st output sheet, that aren't already referenced on the 2nd output sheet in column A, that would be amazingly handy if it could then enter that name into column A and start a new row for them
In my workbook I have multiple sheets but I'm attaching a very simple workbook to demonstrate what I'm trying to accomplish. In my "Lookup" tab/sheet. I want to have known Latitude and Longitude data that will exist in columns A&B. Columns C & D will have address numbers and Street Name. I would like my lookup formula to find the longitude and latitude data from my "lookup" sheet, when the matching address information is typed in, in my 2009 sheet. I have to keep the street numerics and street name separate on this worksheet as well. I believe I'll need two separate lookup formulas as I need these formulas to start in cell G4 & H4 in my "GeoCoding1" sheet. Is it possible to have four columns of data to be viewed in a lookup formula? I tried this formula in cell G4 (GeoCoding1 sheet)
I am trying to get the information that I have plotted, on a scatted graph, off onto the second sheet an splitting the information. I'm not too sure if this is the right place for this thread, but I am hoping that someone can help?
The original data that is on the graph is in 3 columns. One has the company name, one is the current value and one is the predicted value.
I need this info to come off the graph or from the original data in 2 fields. Customer and predicted value, but they need to be prioritized.
1 needs to be the one with the lowest current and highest potential. 2 needs to be the 2nd lowest current and 2nd highest potential......so on. Then I need to get the highest current and highest potential.......so on.
I know that what I require is quite complex and it may have to be via calculations, but I am hoping that excel can do this?
I have a drop down that provides all of the sheet name in the workbook. When the user selects a sheet name, I would like specific cells to pull data from the sheet name selected. What I thought would work is =Sheetname(A1)!E3 where the cell would pull data from cell E3 from the drop down sheetname in A1
I have an excel that has dropdown column from form control, in F4 there is a formula of vlookup that take the range from A2 to B20 in consideration but the reference cell that is given to vlookup formula to pick corresponding value is E4 which is also the reference cell of dropdown box and therefore its not showing any name rather than a value, problem with the formula is that when we select any name from dropdown it does not respond to any value in F4 despite changing values in E4.
I have a workbook that contains data on a different sheet that I would like to populate on a different sheet by selecting a value from a drop down list. The format of the data is identical just different numbers. But are broken out into different projects... I am incredibly new at this and just barely learned how to make a drop down list.
I have one worksheet that has a list of accounts with various attributes. On a separate worksheet within the file I would like to have a drop down menu to select one attribute (i.e. category) and then once selected, have ALL the accounts with that attribute populate in a descending order based on another attribute (i.e. volume).
it has been eye opening to say the least. I have a question however, I am in the process of creating a workbook of different things for my construction company and I am stuck. Is there a way that I can pull a cost code from a drop down and have whatever data is inputted into the cell to the right automatically transfered to a budget report (another sheet)? Example - Inputting time for my crews - select a code from the drop down list say for "concrete" Then I input the crews hours per day in subsequent columns and then sum it up at the final column. Can the sum of the hours worked doing "concrete" then automatically be transposed to the budget in the "concrete" section?
I am doing a spreadsheet where I have 1 main sheet and 2 sheets with data.On the main sheet I have a drop down list to select either one of the 2 sheets and upon selecting,all the data from that selected sheet will be displayed on the main sheet.
Using macro's on Excel 2010. What I'm trying to do is create a macro that will copy a range of cells from one sheet to another depending on a option being selected from a drop down box. I've tried to use formulas but without success. sheet 1 contains a list of approx 20 people with rows containing sales figures per week.
Is it possible to have a macro that will copy the rows to sheet2 depending on the dropdown? The drop down has already been setup with people's names
E.g. if sheet 1, cell a1 (with data validation setup) dropdown contains "mr smith", copy sheet2 row A1:A9 to sheet 1 cell a2 or if sheet 1, cell a1 dropdown contains "mr cooper", copy sheet2 row B1:B9 to sheet1 cell a2 etc... for each name in the dropdown
The idea is so that i select a dropdown and it copies the sales figures that match the dropdown name, if i then select another dropdown, the corresponding figures are copied to the same place.
I am trying to build a stock watchlist in excel 2007 with a dynamic link to a DDE server (paid for).There is no add-in or plug-in, I just CTL ALT & drag each code from a watchlist in the program I am using and place it in a cell, however can only choose one data field at a time. There are 14 data fields and over 150 codes in my list which makes 2100 cells. (My guess is about 3 days work)
I would like to just enter the stock code in say column A (A3) and with each DDE data field (e.g. lastprice, open, cose, high etc) entered in subsequent columns have it lookup the stock code in cell A3 and return the correct value based on the code in column A, rather than entering each cell individually.
Is it possible to write a macro or vba code to create the cell formula so I can just fill down and save myself 3 days work?
The DDE server I am using is formatted like this:
PROGRAMNAMElDATAFIELD!STOCKCODE
example
MISDATAlLASTPRICE!BHP.ASX
I thought I might be able to do something like the following, but it doesn't seem to work.
MISDATAlLASTPRICE!$A3
Note: The DDE server can only be accessed while the other program is running and is password protected
