Dynamic Range In Another Workbook
Aug 23, 2006
I am facing a problem in using a dynamic range(name) defined in a different workbook, when that workbook in not open. I have defined a dynamic range, 'complete' , in Main Assumptions.xls as shown below
= offset( sheet1!$A$16, 0,0, counta(sheet1!$A:$A)-6, 5)
I am trying to use 'complete' in another workbook, RCL.xls, as shown below.
=VLOOKUP(C11, 'C:Chein[Main Assumptions.xls]Sheet1'!complete,5)
This works well as long as Main Assumputions.xls and RCL.xls are open. However, When Main Assumptions.xls is closed and I try to open RCL.xls, I get a warning saying, Excel can't find 'complete' in Main Assumptions.xls. There are two possible reasons: 1. the name you specified may not be defined. 2. The name you specified is defined as as something other than a rectangular cell reference. Does that mean that I can't use dynamic ranges defined, in other workbooks?

I have a range which will change in size & in content, & I want this to be a Named Range at whatever size it is.
Reason I want to is because I want to make a Validation List with this dynamic range. I also want a Validation list which lists the content of 2 or more dynamic ranges which may or may not be on the same worksheet - is this possible?
i.e.
First dynamic range: called "Milestones" at A11
Second dynamic range: called "Activities" at A25
& make a Validation list that will list content of both

I am creating a formula - that will look up a value within a seperate workbook. I want the workbook reference to change based on a cell which contains the date.
So workbook name is "Report 120309.xls"
Cell: A1 contains the date "120309"
Current formula ='[Report 120309.xls]Sheet 1'!$F$50. Can I replace the data within the formula with the date in the cell.

Im sorting a dynamic range as mentioned in this Sorting a Named Range. My range is called drWarningTypes and is defined as:
=OFFSET(DataSource!$A$2,0,0, COUNTA(DataSource!$A:$A)-1,1)
When there is only one cell in the range, then running the following sort function includes A1 also in the search (and also adjoining columns).....

I am trying to get to grips with the dynamic ranges for pivot tables. I have named a range data and in the refers to section put:
=OFFSET(Sheet2!A1,0,0,COUNTA(Sheet2!A:A),COUNTA(Sheet2!1:1))
I was hoping that then when i go to data > Pivot table and it asks for the range i could put =Data but it tells me that the range is invalid. I have attached a copy at the bottom.

My searches have not produced anything that I could apply to this situation.
I'm trying to write VBA that would:
1. Search a Workbook for Dynamic Ranges.
2. When a Dynamic Range is found the code would:
A. Determine the current coordinates for the range.
B. Change the "Refers To" value From "=OFFSET...." To "=Worksheet_Name $Column$Row:$Column$Row"
3. Save Changes.
4. Close File.
My apologies but I have very little experience in writing VBA. I understand about variables, arguments, and IF/THEN but just enough to use functions within Excel.

I have sheet1 along with three columns as below
Result column will show the result after sum ** column A & B
[Code] ......
This is simple that i will add this formula =A2+B2 in Result column cell C2.
But i want to perform this addition action on Sheet2 and return the result in column C2 ** Sheet1.
What formula should be populate in Result column ** Sheet1 that could catch addition formula from Sheet2 dynamically and display the result ** column A & B in Sheet1 .
And what type ** formula should be use in Sheet2 to add two columns dynamically.
The same concept that we are using in any functions like as below:
Sub Function Plus (value1 As Double, value2 As Double)
Plus = (value1 + value)
End Sub

I am using:
Code:
Dim Aname As String
Aname = ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Range("D2").Value & "Pricing"
Workbooks.Add
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=Aname & ".xls"
to create a new workbook. I need to copy 2 columns from the original workbook/worksheet to the one being created though. I can get the the original easy enough, but then getting back to the newly created book is proving difficult.
(the 2 columns being copied are filtered to what is needed and I have used the below to copy it, yes I know that is 3 rows but I couldnt get it to copy just E and G at the same time to the lastrow without including F)
Code:
LastRow = .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
With .Range("E2:G" & LastRow)
.Select.copy
End With

I have 1 workbook which summerizes 3 other workbooks. My question is, is there a way that if I hide a column(s) in 1 workbook (by either using Hide or Outline), the corresponding column(s) will also automatically be hidden in the Summery workbook?
Or, is there a way that I can make the Summery Workbook only display / Link to cells that is been displayed in the source workbooks? I hope to do this dynamically, so if something is hidden by Outline or Hide in one of the workbook, the affected cells in the Summary workbook will also go in hiding.
I am hoping to do this by some magical Excel Function, if not then by VBA (I'm not that good a VBA programmer), if not even that, then maybe some free Excel Tool someone knows?

I have a range of data that will grow as the days of the month pass but I need to run calculations on this range. The data is 13 columns wide but the number of rows will increase daily. I remember using a formula in the Define Range that would automatically take into account new additions using the OFFSET function but cannot for the life of me think how exactly to do it.

I have been working on part of the code for my spreadsheet and it works fine in the spreadsheet “Databaseform” however when I copied the code to my master spreadsheet “Paul_PartLocDBCombo” it does not work, I get the error:
Method ‘ range’ of object ‘_worksheet’ failed
The code is then highlighted in yellow, the code is:
Set rng = wksPartsData.Range("a1", Range("a65536").End(xlUp))
Meaning this part is incorrect but I don’t know why? To work it: go to Databaseform and press start. Enter 7mm in the product field and press find all. It will then return all the matching results in the userform. Its this I want to try and achieve on the other spreadsheet when the button find label is pressed.

is to have a folder where I drop multiple workbooks from different stores. There can be 1 or more workbooks at any given time in that folder. Each workbook is a different size as far as the information inside. Next I need to transfer certain columns to the Master Workbook and also have the store location added to the Master workbook (File Name). I have highlighted the store information that needs to be merged to the master, Store 1, Store 2. For reference I have attached a copy of the Main Folder which is on my desktop C:Documents and SettingsDesktopInventory.

I have a range of workbooks that I need to access when closed. I therefore want to use INDEX rather than INDIRECT.
This non-dynamic INDEX reference works perfectly:
=INDEX('[AAA 100.xlsx]Sheet 1'!$A$1:$F$20;1;1)
In the future, however, there will be a lot of reference files and both portions of the name will change - I might have ABC 123, DEF 345, etc. These name portions will be stored in cells. Cell A19 might contain "AAA" and Cell A20 might contain "100".
I am trying in my ignorance to get something like this to work:
=INDEX("'["&A19&" "&A20&".xlsx]Sheet 1'!$A$1:$F$20";1;1)
But I just get "#VALUE!".
Stepping through the evaluation, it seems the final value to be evaluated is this:
INDEX("'[AAA 100.xlsx]Sheet 1'!$A$1:$F$20";1;1)
The outermost double quotes therefore seem to be causing the problem, but if I remove them I get "#REF!".

I have read a number of posts and other sites and can create the hyperlink in the desired cell but get an error message to the effect, "Cannot open the workbook."
The current macro follows. I believe its description is made in the comment statements below the date-author comment.
Sub DecomposeCTQ()
'Decompose CTQ Macro

'This macro copies the template to a new worksheet and takes data from the'
' active cell CTQ and makes it the parent CTQ on the new worksheet. Then'
' it renames the new worksheet with the active cell CTQ ID.'

i have this code that could extract out Data from many closed workbook. I am extracting data from 2-3 thousand files and the Data in those files are rather dynamically positioned.
For e.g. My vba codings will extract data from cell B256 of the closed workbook.
Sometimes, the data might not start from that cell which my vba would still extract that non-relevant data.
Is there anyway i can modify the codings to search for the required data and extract instead of extracting it dumbly?
Sub getINFO()
Dim lCount As Long
Dim wbResults As Workbook
Dim wbCodeBook As Workbook
Dim rCell As Range

I currently have a file that is linked to an external workbook that is referencing a certain cell from a certain tab. The below is what Column A & B look like right now. What I'm wanting to know is is there a way to have the formula in Column B automatically reference the name in Column A (which is the tab name in the external workbook) instead of having to manually change the formula when the value in Column A changes?
In other words, I want everything in the external reference formula to remain the same except have the person's name change dynamically...

I have a weekly report which lists items and their available date. This list is always changing - new items added, old items removed. These items are required for 4 different projects and the item listed says which project the item date is for. There is also the same item across different projects which also have different dates which also appear and disappear each week depending on requirements.
I want to be able to capture the date for each of the items per project per week. Ultimately, I want to be able to track the movement of the date per item per project. I have attached a sample of how I want it to do.

I have a financial dataset which I need to "clean" before manipulating/analysing.
Each row of the data represents a completed transaction and the first step is to delete rows that are done with particular (internal) clients; the client data (the client's name) is in Column D.
Currently, I delete the unwanted data by autofilter and delete (code below), however this means the clients to be deleted are only defined within the code. I would prefer to have a worksheet within the workbook where the user defines the clients by adding or subtracting their name from a list.
I have created a dynamic range for the client list by inserting a Named variable along the lines of "=OFFSET(!$B$3,1,0,COUNTA($B$3:$B$200)-1," which works fine.
However how do I work this list into my code so that it works when new clients are added or deleted?
Current code for deleting unwanted client data:
Sub filterdelete()
Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
With Range(Range("D1"), Range("D" & LastRow))
[Code] .....

I have this macro named ABC to bring the name ranges to another worksheet. The name ranges are already saved in the workbook with the below name range. I used "***" so that this formular can go to the last cell that has "***" on A column and it worked untill someone typed "(xxx)" and the range now stops right before the "(xxx)"
=OFFSET(Storage_Team2!$A$1,0,0,MATCH("***",Storage_Team2!$A:$A,-1),37)
What would be the best to create the range according to the specific words in a column?

i am coloring cells:
Sheets("MySheet").Range("a1:f200").Interior.ColorIndex = 5
i want a dynamic range, so something that would look like this as an excel function:
=OFFSET('MySheet'!$A$1,0,0, COUNTA('MySheet'!$A:$A),6)
i want the equivalent of this programmed (hard coded) into vba
i don't want to reference to a defined name with vba, because the user can delete that.

I wonder if there is a way to Sum the total of a Dynamic Range so that the summary will be presented in the upper Cell of the summed column?
(please see the attached picture).
The reason is to anable FREEZING of the first row (display the totals all the time even when scrolling down) as the list will get very long after a while.

I am looking to sum a dynamic range and can't quite figure it out. The data expands down rows every week, and I want the sum formula (the final row) at the bottom to include the newly updated rows. I can't dynamically name the numbers to be summed because the dynamic named range will include the sum number and create a circular reference. For example:
5
4
3
2
14
the bottom row (14) is the sum. Next week, my numbers are
5
4
3
2
5
19
I have a macro that will automatically put the sum formula in the correct row and column, but can't quite figure out the formula.

I am working with loans, and I'm trying to program a routine that adds every installment a client owes, so I can know the total amount owed, depending on how many unpaid installments she has. Let say for a client I have every installment in column A (rows 1 to 5), and in column B, I want to add them all. The output should be
Cell B1: "sum(A1:A5)"
Cell B2: "sum(A2:A5)"
Cell B3: "sum(A3:A5)"... and so forth
Since I have many loans, I need a dinamic routine to that sums every installment, where amount of installments vary from client to client. My proposal is (adding from the last installment to the first one):
VB:
months = 4 'an example
For j = 0 To months - 1
initial_row = ActiveCell.Row 'because I run this several times. In this example I am in row 18[code]....
For some reason this is not working, and what I see in Excel after running it is: SUM('AJ18':'AJ18'), which doesn't work.
