Error: Too Many Arguments In The Formula

Mar 19, 2007

I am have these values based on dates from 1st till 31st and each value is in the alternate cell on the worksheet. For example, value for the 1st is in Cell A1 and the value for 2nd is in cell C1 and so on.

I need to sum all these values for different dates. I am using the sum() and it gives me an error like "too many arguments in the formula".

Do I need to do something else or apply a different formula? Maybe a UDF or a macro?

Trying To Do VLOOKUP ISNA Formula - Error TOO MANY ARGUMENTS

Nov 6, 2012

I'm trying to use this formula but I get the error "too many arguments". How can I do the same as the formula without an error:

=IF(ISNA(VLOOKUP(B12,GYROLOK316ANDM!A12:E2000,3,FALSE)),VLOOKUP(B12,GYROLOKBR!A12:E2000,3,FALSE), VLOOKUP(B12,VALVESFILTERS!A12:E2000,3,FALSE),VLOOKUP(B12,GYROLOK316ANDM!A12:E2000,3,FALSE))

I added in the VLOOKUP(B12,VALVESFILTERS!A12:E2000,3,FALSE) - when I used it without that it worked. But I have 3 sheets I need the the VLOOKUP to look over and this formula that I copied off another thread only had 2 tabs.

If And Vlookup Formula; Too Many Arguments

Nov 25, 2009

Im trying to build a little database and the closest thing i have come to manage what i want to do is with IF and Vlookup function.

I have 1 "main page" lets call it "sheet1"
Then i have nomerous of "secondary pages" we call them "sheet2", "sheet3" etc.

The idea is that on my "main page" im using 3 colums "A","B" and "C". "A" and "B" helps deciding where my VLOOKUP function should find the correct value.

The "A" column is planned to decide in what sheet to look for seach word(which is written in "C" column)

Basicly if "A1" is saying "2" its gonna do my VLOOKUP in "sheet2" , and if "A1" sais "3" its gonna look for my "search word" in "sheet3" etc.

My formula at this point (witch is working for 2 pages)
=IF(A1=2;VLOOKUP(B1;sheet1!A1:B6;2;FALSE);IF(A1=3;VLOOKUP(B1;sheet2!A1:B6;2;FALSE)))

This is working perfectly.
If i write "2" in "A1" and "car" in "B1" VLOOKUP jumps to "sheet1" lookup "car" and return the value in the second column (in this case 2"
and if i write "3" in "A1" and keep "car" in "B1" VLOOKUP jumps to "sheet2" and return the carvalue for this sheet (in this case 22).

Then the problem
The problem is ofcourse that if i wanna continue with this formula in the same box, i wanna make it keep looking in more sheets depending on what number i have in "A1"
If i put number 5 in it goes to "sheet5" and look for "car" and return valuve.

But at this point the formula is too big for excel.

So i guess my question is. Is there any workaround for this? Can anyone come up how to approach this in another way? (im out of ideas)
Or am i doomed and have to learn programming to get my idea to work?

Nested If Formula Claims There Are Too Many Arguments

Feb 11, 2013

But I've read that the new versions of excel allow for up to 64 nested if functions. I need to nest about 5 if functions, but after I write out the 3rd excel says there are too many arguments.

=IF(INDEX(vlookup!$D$2:$D$157,MATCH($F16,vlookup!$B$2:$B$157,0))="CPM", INDEX(vlookup!$E$2:$E$157,MATCH($F16,vlookup!$B$2:$B$157,0))*(J16/1000), IF(INDEX(vlookup!$D$2:$D$157,MATCH($F16,vlookup!$B$2:$B$157,0))="CPA", INDEX(vlookup!$E$2:$E$157,MATCH($F16,vlookup!$B$2:$B$157,0))*(L16), IF(INDEX(vlookup!$D$2:$D$157,MATCH($F16,vlookup!$B$2:$B$157,0))="dCPM", 0.04*(j3/1000))), IF(INDEX(vlookup!$D$2:$D$157,MATCH($F16,vlookup!$B$2:$B$157,0))="dCPC", 0.008*k3, "calc")

Multiple Array Arguments In Match Formula

I was hoping to solve it with a crafty index and match array formula but have been unable to find something that works so far. I have attached a simplified example of what I am trying to do.

Excel 2013 :: Enter Multiple Arguments In IF Formula

Aug 21, 2013

I need entering multiple arguments in an IF formula in Excel 2013. Here is the formula with just 1 argument.

=IF(SUM($G$4:G15)>3000,G15*0.8,0)

I need to combine it with the following.........

=IF(SUM($G$4:G15)>10000,sum($G$4:G15)-G15,0)

So to say, if the sum totals more than 3000 but less than 10000, then I want the cell value (G15) multiplied by 80% (.80). if it is greater than 10000, i want the sum minus 10000. If both arguments are false (sum totals less than 3000) then the value placed should be 0.

Too Many Arguments ..

Oct 17, 2009

I am trying to make changes to the Y column where the calculation now looks at column C to see what is entered in that column. If it is "Futures" then it runs the existing formulas but if it equals "Forex" I want it to use the value in column D as the multiplier, where the Futures option uses the hlookup to get the correct multiplier from the Variables sheet. If column C is either "Options" or "Stock_ETF" then i want to just subtract column I from column Y times column P.

I attempted to add additional IF AND functions but got the error message "Too many arguments", so now i am not sure where to go from here.

AVERAGE More Than 30 Arguments

Dec 2, 2009

I'm getting the error that tells me I have more than 30 arguments when trying to get an average of cells across a row. The biggest issue is that I don't want to average all the cells in the row, just some of them.

I tried writing an IF statement for it and failed. What I want is every fourth cell to be totaled into the average. Another way to look at it is that I want every cell under the heading "south" to be totaled into the average.

Two Different Arguments In One Cell

Oct 19, 2008

I am trying to get two different arguments to work into one cell. I was using the "If" statement eg. if the value of B1 is greater than B2 then use the value in cell A1 else use A2. I also need in the same cell if the value of C1 = B then use the value in D1

What I am looking for is a statement which will decide which statement to use eg if B1 is blank then use the second statement else use the first statement.

IF Caps At 8 Arguments

Dec 22, 2008

It appears that the excel IF statement caps out at eight arguments. Is there a work around for this? I need to enter 29 arguments... Does excel have a CASE or Array function?

Example-works:
=IF((H3="Weight1"),"A",IF((H3="Weight2),"B",IF((H3="Weight3"),"C",IF((H3="Weight4"),"D",IF((H3="Weig ht5"),"E",IF((H3="Weight6),"F",IF((H3="Weight7"),"G",IF((H3="Weight8"),"H",""))))))))

Example-doesn't work:
=IF((H3="Weight1"),"A",IF((H3="Weight2),"B",IF((H3="Weight3"),"C",IF((H3="Weight4"),"D",IF((H3="Weig ht5"),"E",IF((H3="Weight6),"F",IF((H3="Weight7"),"G",IF((H3="Weight8"),"H",IF((H3="Weight9"),"I""")) )))))))

How To Call Sub With Arguments

Sep 30, 2013

I've heard of calling a sub with arguments but don't believe I'd done it in the past. I want to remove the empty rows in 3 worksheets so that my row count actually stops where the existing data does. The second sub is where that takes place. What is the best way to call the sub to execute on the three sheets?

My thinking had been that if I used the argument ws as worksheet I could simply call the sub with the worksheet name as the argument.

Code:
Option Explicit
Sub PopulateProfit()

Dim wb As ThisWorkbook
'Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim wsProfRep As Worksheet
Dim wsChaseRaw As Worksheet

[Code] ..........

More Than 30 Arguments: SUM & AVERAGE

Feb 21, 2009

I've created a spreadsheet that calculates both the SUM and the AVERAGE on 2 different rows. So far, so good.
The problem I've come across is that there are 35 different numbers (arguments?) that have to be calculated and from what I see, Excel has a limit of 30.

Is there a way for me to get around this?
If it'll help, I can send the spreadsheet to you so you can see what I'm talking about in the event I didn't properly explain it here.

Countif Arguments

In this case, is what is the syntax instructing the app to count in the first range?

Too Many Arguments For Specified File Format

Jan 23, 2014

Why excel won't accept a simple COUNT function?

This is the formula. It is supposed to count every 4th cell in a column.

=COUNT(F156,F152,F148,F144,F140,F136,F132,F128, F124,F120,F116,F112,F108,F104,F100,F96, F92,F88,F84,F80,F76,F72,F68,F64,F60,F56,F52,F48,F44,F40,F36,F32,F28,F24,F20,F16,F12,F8,F4)

Excel tells that it will accept up to 255 arguments in a COUNT function, but it'll only let me include:

=COUNT(F156,F152,F148,F144,F140,F136,F132,F128,F124,F120,F116,F112,F108,F104,F100,F96,F92,F88,F84,F80,F76,F72,F68,F64,F60,F56,F52,F48,F44,F40)

I have to use this exact same formula as a SUM function as well, but am having the same problem. Neither SUM or COUNT will take all the arguments.

I've attached the file. The tabs in red are the worksheets that won't accept the formula. The green tabs worked fine (they all had less cells to include than the sheets in red.)
