I'm having a problem with a dynamic range. I've re-checked my formula at least 10X and its syntax is correct. The problem is the dynamic range stops short 3 rows up from the last entry.
View 9 RepliesI imported my data and I have a macro that updates the data. Nothing new until new items were added, creating new rows at the bottom and now the Table Format does not include these rows. There are so many formats available that I don't want to guess which one I used when I created it I just want to extend the data range.
I do not care if this is done through the macro or right on the sheet as this does not happen that often.
VB recorder in Excel. The macro is designed to process a spreadsheet that will have the same number of columns and same type of data in each column, process this data with a formula (hat tip: AlKey+XOR LX) and then clean up the columns ready for use in another program.
I have got it working but when I alter the row length the macro only works to the final row in the recording spreadsheet. I realize this is because when recorded the macro I told VB to set the range to a given row.
I remember there is a way of setting the Range function that tells VB to always go to the bottom of the rows filled with data but I can't find it for the life of me.

I have a Line Graph with 2 lines on it. Is it possible to write a macro to extend the range (Source range) of one of the lines ? I would also like to add a Data Label to the newly added point.
For e.g. If I have Line 1 graph only till 65, I want the macro to extend the range by one row to include 95 and also display a datalabel ......
I am attempting to improve an old paper-form process that we use for entering equipment in our Product database. In general, the current process is as follows:
1. When new equipment is purchased, basic information is entered into the database.
2. A separate paper form for each item is printed with the existing information and sent to the field engineer.
3. Each type of equipment has a different form because it requires different data.
4. After construction is completed, the updated information is written on the form and sent back to the main office for review/approval then entered into the database.
This is very archaic...Not only are we killing tons of trees, most specialists are getting buried by the paperwork!
What I would like to do is create a form or template that can be used with different spreadsheets. Instead of printing a separate form for each item, the specialists would dump the existing data for a site into a spreadsheet, attach the template/form, and send the file(s) to the field engineer (FE). When the FE opens the file, he would select the equipment type (using a dropdown box) and the appropriate form would pop up. He would then be able to edit the data for that piece of equipment or view the next item of the same equipment type. If he selects a different equipment type, a new form would be displayed. All changes would go into the spreadsheet and get sent back to the specialist. I’m hoping the review/approval can be done using the Track Changes feature in Excel. They then have a way to import the spreadsheet data back into our Custom database.
The basic implementation seems straight forward albeit a lot to learn. I have found many good examples in the forum; however, I’m having a problem figuring out how to handle the following:
1. Many different people create the spreadsheets and send them to different FE’s. When they create a new spreadsheet, how would my template/form get “attached”? Would they need to open a template file and add their data as a different sheet?
2. The equipment table in the database has approximately 95 fields; however, only about 20-30 of them are used for a particular type of equipment. I was thinking of using a unique list to create the form for each equipment type.
3. Since different specialists create the spreadsheets. The columns won’t always be in the same order. Is there an easy way to order columns or do you think I should use the ' find' feature to dynamically find each field? (Like I said, that may be 20-30 fields for each type of equipment, and there are currently 40 different equipment types.) Is there a limit on the number of user forms that can be in a project?
4. Finally, can you use the Track Changes feature when items are changed using VBA or a form?
The form seems like a good idea, but because the dynamic nature of the spreadsheets, the code gets rather complex.
I've got a software test plan that has test cases w/ individual pull-downs to select result states (All individually color-coded thanks to a macro). If any state is selected other than "Pass" or "Untested", a text entry feild appears two rows beneath the test case for additional notes and information regarding what behavior occurred when the test was done.
I need a way to a.) Automatically select this text field once any state other than "Pass" or "Untested" is selected in the pull-down, and b.) Require text entry in the field before the user can proceed to the next test case. (ideally w/ accompanying custom error message describing what information is required.)
I've pasted my macro code below: ...
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 have a formula IF(A2=A1+1;B1+1;1) that I need to develop further, so it can recognise same date for same patient, so it doesn't start back at 1.
e.g. ( see attachment) In column B are real dates( 01.09.10-01.09.12, trough my formula => day 1,2, 3). What I need help with is to make the formula linked to column C so that if there are more of same date in column B( because of several different analyzes taken same day of the patient-column E) fore example several 09.10.11 should be recognized as day 2 all of them for the same patient, and if a new date follows for a new patient it should start back at day 1.
This is so I can make a diagram of my analyzes taken at the ICU, the problem is that my research is during 3 years and because of that I have different dates of analyze, and I need them to be comparable so that the day that they arrive changes to day 1 and so on.
PS! I have made an example were I have changed the patients IDs and taken away unnecessary data.
How can I extend a table backwards my table starts from column B and i want to make it from column A to make it start from column A that is, if its possible.

Using the oldest version of Excel (200) I have to insure all members of our squad can utilize this function. Trying to format a whole row based on one cell in that row that reports number of days till the next physical. My formatting works correctly for the initial cell, but does not extend correctly to the rest of the row. I am using the "Cell value is" option. I used:
Cell value is between 1 and 365 - color green
Cell value is between 0 and -30 - Color Yellow
Cell value is between -31 and -365 Color Red.
All cells with no value in it are yellow, even if the original formatted cell is another color and the cells that have other data in them such as the physical date, have no color in them regardless. read and tried several approaches from other threads with no good results. considering the results from those threads, I am curious if it has to do with it being an older version.
i have a calendar with the dates in a row
I want to count instances of an entry under the dates using 'countif' from 01JAN until today.
My problem is that today changes value [up by one] each day so the 'countif' function will need to extend its range to the right by one cell each day.
If I have a sum function that adds up:
= SUM(U41:U45)
but I add a row at 41 I now get sum function
=SUM(S42:S46) when I really want it to incorporate the just add row to look like this:
=SUM(U41:U46)
use of SUMPRODUCT and what I believe is called a double unary operator (--). Here's the original post with Paul's solution:

I've since discovered that a previously unknown column of data (I'm transcribing data from paper documents) needs to be included in the calculations. Specifically, the new column of data (shown in yellow in the attached example) has to be taken into consideration when counting product quantities. An explanatory pseudo code statement, also appearing in yellow in the example sheet, describes.
I want to extend a formula like so- =Sheet2!M3
=Sheet2!M60
=Sheet2!M117
Basically I want it to go up in increments of 57 when I copy the formula down. Is there an easier way to do this rather than typing it over and over again? I looked on an older post and saw some information about OFFSET and INDEX but couldn't figure out exactly how that worked.
I work in Local Government and I am recording the contact that we receive for each transaction that are avoidable or unavoidable. This is broken down into service areas.
The data is imported into excel from a database and therefore is constantly growing.
What I want to do it a very basic summary page so that I can group those that are and those that aren't avoidable for each service.
Because the data is ever expanding I would like this on a separate sheet from the actual data.
I attach a sample of the worksheet and would be grateful if someone could advise what formula to use on sheet 2 in cells c4, c5, d4 and d5 to make it do it automatically.
I have a list (external), which will be updated every month from an external source with new numbers and possibly a new size. This will be a count of services people use. On a 2nd sheet I need to allocate a cost to these services (pivotdata). This works fine if the list stays the same size, but it most probably won't so I need it to update automatically, not manually extending the list on the 2nd sheet. In brackets are the named ranges of the data in the spreadsheet.

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:$A)-1,1)
When there is only one cell in the range, then running the following sort function includes A1 also in the search (and also adjoining columns).....
I have a column of data that keeps getting new information in it. what i need is a named range that i can use for a chart, first point in the named range will be the first value in the column, second point will be avg. of point 1 and 2, then 3rd point will be avg. of 1,2,3 etc.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to get to grips with the dynamic ranges for pivot tables. I have named a range data and in the refers to section put:
=OFFSET(Sheet2!A1,0,0,COUNTA(Sheet2!A:A),COUNTA(Sheet2!1:1))
I was hoping that then when i go to data > Pivot table and it asks for the range i could put =Data but it tells me that the range is invalid. I have attached a copy at the bottom.
This is what I am using:
=VLOOKUP($A5,TEAM!$B:$MZ,23,FALSE)
When I select the cell formula extension button thing and drag it to the right, the formula copies exactly into the next cell. If I select multiple cells starting from 19-23 and then drag, excel just repeats the formula over, (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 19, 20...) This is seriously frustrating as I have to click into the formula bar on each cell and change the value of the column lookup.
I can't keep going manually as I need to go to about 300 cells...
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.
Example. I have a range of information on sheet 2 in cells A1:A25 that contains values that are text. Another range in B1:B25 that has numerical values. I would like to link the last value entered from those ranges to cell A1 & B1 on Sheet 1. Is there a formula option to do this?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have created a very simple form. I want the user of my spreadsheet to fill in 1 cell in each section of the form, but they will have a choice of a couple of cells to fill in. For example, they can fill in one cell with the temperature in Fahrenheit or another cell with the temperature in Celsius. I want Excel to stop the user from putting data in more than one cell. (This way they can't put in a value for both boxes, which could confound their outcome.)

If I make an entry in D13 then I want the R3 to be duplicated into C27 otherwise C27 should be 0.
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.
Using VBA how could I put a border around any cell that isn't empty within the range B1:C500. (Worksheet name - Floc BOM)
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a formula that calculates the number of rows in a spreadsheet. I would like the results of that formula to complete a range description. For instance, if the range would be expressed as A1:A20 (for a file with 20 rows), and the result of the formula (the cell enty) for a different file is 35, I would want the range to be expressed as A1:Ax, where x is equivalent to the result of the formula (effectively A1:A35, but expressed with a reference to the cell with "35" in it, not the 35 itself).
