Excel 2010 :: VLookup With Named Range Not Updating?
Oct 5, 2011
There is a formula
=vlookup(a1,Named_Range,2,false)
if I change a value in the range named "Named_Range" this vlookup does not update.
This formula works but does not allow for any updates. Meaning the vlookup returns the original value even after a cell has been changed. "Named_Range" is on a different sheet but in the same workbook.
Auto calculate is on. I have recalculated the cell manually. I have Office 2010
I recently switched to Excel 2010 and have a rather peculiar problem.Every week I update a bunch of charts in different workbooks. By update, I pretty much mean just shifting the range over one column or down one row to incorporate newly added data.
So I right click the chart, select "Select Data", update all the Data series ranges and then I click on the Horizontal (Category) Axis Labels button "Edit" to update the Axis label range.
I do all that then press OK. The data series have updated, but the axis labels haven't. So then I do the procedure again for the Axis Labels, hit OK again and voila: It worked.
But I ALWAYS have to do this procedure twice. It will NEVER update the axis labels the first time around. Even though the little preview window below the edit button show the labels correctly.
I am new to VBA. Using Excel 2010. I have a date picker on a userform named LtPayCalFm1. I have created a named range on a sheet within the workbook called LQD which is a date. I want the date picker to show the date LQD when the form opens. The code I have is
Code:
Private Sub LtPayCalFm1_Initialize() Dim LQD As Range DTPicker1.Value = LQD End Sub
I get Run time error '380': Invalid property value How do I correct this?
I have a set of four pivot tables on a sheet that I need to programmatically change a Report Filter (Page Field) so I can create sets of reports in an automated fashion. This will be the first step in that process. The change will involve choosing > 1 Role each time the code loops through based on Named Ranges I've defined that are associated with that Role.
My code thus far:
Code: Sub TestCode() Dim pt As PivotTable Dim pf As PivotField Dim pi As PivotItem
[Code]....
emm_dc_gsr is one of many Named Ranges that will contain a variable number of elements. Just using the one right now to see if I can get the code to work, I'll eventually make another Named Range/Array of all them so I can loop through each Report ("ReportPick").
I want the Report Filter to consult that Named Range for its values and apply those values to PivotField "Role" that is used as a Report Filter.
When running this code above, I get a "Role" Field that says "All" but no values (the table is completely blank), with no evidence as to why it'd be blank (all filters in every Report, Column and Row are working normally and are filled in). When I choose a value manually after the code is run, the pivot table values populate. Do I need to somehow index the Named Range in that loop? I'm just confused about this step right here:
For Each pi In pf.PivotItems If pi.Value = RolePick Then pi.Visible = True Else: pi.Value = False
When I've run other versions of the code, I've gotten an array version of it to "work" using LBound and UBound, but it never chooses the right two values even though those are verified as stored in the array via a pass-through. It chooses the first few values in the Report Filter.
Here's the corresponding code for that:
For i = LBound(myArray) To UBound(myArray) pf.PivotItems(i).Name = myArray(i, 1).Value pf.PivotItems(i).Visible = True Next
I do not care if I use an array or a Named Range. I just want something that is simple and works. Passing the values directly from the named range seems easiest to my brain, but I'm open to anything and I'm clearly missing something (probably silly).
I also have no idea why " .AutoSort xlManual, .SourceName, .EnableMultiplePageItems" is necessary though every piece of sample code I've seen seems to have some variation of it.
I am working with a worksheet that has hundreds of named ranges already in-place. When the creator defined these ranges, they defined them all statically. I would like to update each named range to be a variable named range.
I was thinking about doing a massive find / replace in the VB Editor, but I can't seem to find the named ranges. I assume they were defined from within Excel by the Insert > Name > Define method, and not through VBA and that is why I can't find them. Is there any way to simplify this process instead of manually trying to update each and every range?
The code below is for a macro that allows the user to create a list of contacts. The column containing the names of these contacts are then referenced by a userform (code not present) by way of a Named Range. I want to update the named range whenever the user adds another contact so this new contact shows up in the user form.
I am currently referencing the range containing the names using R1C1 style, but I cannot get the variable aspect to work correctly.
I am using the Format as Table feature in 2010 and I am summing a range of cells (C2, D2 and E2) with the result in F2. I have linked F2 three rows below the table in cell C5.
When I add new data in the 3rd row in the table feature I can get an updated result in F3 but my linked cell does not update as it is now pushed to cell C6.
How can I have the linked cell update with the new total from cell F3 as it moves relative to the table?
I have below format in excel and i will be updating scores for each parameter (column B).
I will be inserting a command/click button and when i click on the button macro should take the name, contact No., scores from column B and paste it in sheet 2 in the same workbook in one row, in the same way when I click the button the scores should be taken from sheet 1 column b and paste one below other row in sheet 2 each time i click on button.
Below is how raw data looks like.
Column A Column B
Name: ABC
Contact Number: XYZ
Parameter Score
[Code] ..........
Output expected in sheet 2 is as below.
Name: Contact Number: Parameter A Parameter B Parameter C Parameter D Total Score
I have an intensive VB program I've written that the user kicks off by clicking a button. I update a particular cell near the button with progress numbers so they can see what's going on. (This calculation can take up to 10 minutes.)
Sometimes, though, the UI stops updating. I know the calculation is still running because it completes eventually.
I am guessing Excel is getting too many updates to its screen (i.e. that cell) to keep up with the calculation going on in another thread, so it just gives up on the updating.
Is there a way to force Excel to keep updating the screen? I'm willing to give up the 0.01% slowdown in exchange for continuing to see progress. I see no need for the VB calculation thread to hog out the screen updater.
I have the following macro which runs vlookups between two sheets in excel. Whenever i add columns to the range the vlookup column reference is not the correct cell. Is their any way I can adjust the macro so that the column number adjusts in the formula when a new column is added??
I have a vlookup formula that works when looking up one specific value (ie F2 in example below)
=VLOOKUP($F$2,'All active PRs (RP6)'!B2:L2,12,FALSE)
But now, I want to lookup a range of possible text values (say F2 to F8 which would all have different text values). I've created F2 to F8 as a named range called ISS_Services and created a new formula
=VLOOKUP(ISS_Services,'All active PRs (RP6)'!$A2:$L2,5,FALSE)
But it doesn't want to work consistently. Can vlookup work in this scenario?
I have a workbook which needs a new sheet for each day of the month.I normally just create and re-name each sheet with the date...is there a simpler way where i can create the new sheet with a date for each month instead of doing indiviually?
I have 18 columns in a worksheet. (Let's say AA:RR). I've filled A1:R1 with the following series: WEEK 1,WEEK 2,.....WEEK 18.
I also have a named range (Start_Date) on another worksheet. Column 1 in that named range is WEEK 1, WEEK 2,......WEEK 18. Column 2 contains Start Dates for each week. If I input the following formula into cell A10:
I'm trying to write a vlookup where both the lookup value and the table_array are variables. What I'm trying to do is get a set of dependent drop down boxes to serve as the input for vlookup. The first drop down box contains a list of named ranges and the second contains a list of possible search values. If I manually input the name the function works, but if I refer to it with a cell reference or the indirect funtion it fails. For example:
Where I have X number of Lists, each composed of two columns. The 1st column has the name of each item in each list, and the 2nd column has the value for that item.
What I'd like to do is create a function that would let me choose two lists, and tell me the amount of items in List X and what their values are in List Y, and then total them. Also, I would like it to work the opposite way, and tell me the amount of items in List Y and what their values are in List X, and then total them.
So for example, If I wanted to look at lists 1 and 2, the function would calculate that for List 1, Items D & E are found in List 2 and have a total value of 25%. For List 2, Items D&E are found in List 1 and have a total value of 17%. For all items not in both lists, it would return values of 0.
The code I came up with so far looks like this:
Function AK_Overlap_Go(x, y) Dim Temp(1 To 2, 2 To 1) Dim x As Integer
[Code]...
One of the problems I'm having is that the lists contain a different # of items, and so I think I need to loop the vlookup for each row. However, I'm not sure how to do that and get the cumulative values for each list.
Is is possible to construct a vlookup to identify that there are duplicate values in the Lookup_value and the Table_array and return the second and third values in the Formula result?
In the acutal project the Lookup_values and Table_arrays are in separate worksheets, but I think the example below represents the issue I'm working with.
I have a table in columns A-D. I am trying to perform a vlookup to return the first non-blank in columns B-D based on the lookup value in column A. Columns F-I are what I am looking for the formula to do. I think I am close with the following array formula but not quite there.
Excel 2010LMN12#N/A3Sheet1Array FormulasCellFormulaM2{=INDEX($B$2:$D$9,MATCH($F$2,$A$2:$A$9,FALSE), MATCH(TRUE,INDEX(INDEX($B$2:$D$9,MATCH($F$2,$A$2:$A$9,FALSE),0)<>"",),FALSE))}Entered with Ctrl+Shift+Enter. If entered correctly, Excel will surround with curly braces {}.
Note: Do not try and enter the {} manually yourself
We have a business system which has some very disjointed reporting. To fix this I have multiple extracts that are then combined into a single report. I then add Year & Period from a lookup of a date in a particular field. Unfortunately most values are returned as #N/A but if I manually go into the sheet and select an offending cell and click then magically the formula then corrects itself.
So I thought I would be clever and use Sendkeys {F2} as part of my code. Unfortunately this is a bit hit & miss as it works on some but not on others. Also the Sendkeys piece repeats itself leaving my frontsheet a 1000 rows from the start. This is easily fixed by selecting cell A1as the last step.
My question is there methods in VBA by not using sendkeys that will achieve the same result and is consistent. I am using Excel 2010.
Code: Sub Add_Calendar() Dim cell As Object, c As Range
'setup for calendar data population ' Range("H1") = "Created Date" Range("N1") = "Year" Range("O1") = "Period" 'copy the format
I am using the following formula to copy the name of the tab - =MID(CELL("filename",C26),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,6)
I have a marco that creates a tab from a Master file, and I need to copy the name of the tab into cell A2, using the formula above. Then I use a vlookup on this cell, to get the data needed for about 10 other fields. I have these vlookups in the Master file. The vlookup doesn't work all the time. I get a #NA answer. Sometimes it does work. When I manually type in the project number on the tab, the vlookups work.
Sample of the vlookup: =VLOOKUP(A2,'AC-Program'!$A$1:$H$58600,2,0)
I was trying to find a way to use a value in cell A2 instead of the formula above, but I don't want to have to manually update it, I need it to be generated when the Marco generates the tabs.
Here is my macro:
Sub CreateSheetsFromAList() Dim ws1 As Worksheet Set ws1 = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Master")[code]......
Is there a way to add this function into this macro, and it will leave this field as a value instead of a formula?
