Excel 2010 :: Referencing Cells Containing Dynamic Data In Another Worksheet?
Jun 15, 2012
I have a a spreadsheet that pulls user information from our corporate address book. I would then like to copy that data to another worksheet for additional data scrubbing. The problem I am facing is that, I can get the reference to work the first time but if I pull new data down, the destination spreadsheet now shows #REF!
I've tried using the below formulas but they all wind up the same way. ' Results' is the name of the spreadsheet I am making the reference to which has the dynamic data in it.
I use Excel 2010, 64-bit-version with Windows 7. I have one workbook, where whenever I create a formula that references to one specific sheet, the Excel crashes and cannot be quitted even with Task Manager. I have to restart the whole system.
I do not have any worksheet events in either sheet. This is the same workbook that crashes if all cells are selected from the top-left corner of the worksheet.
I tried by deleting unnecessary COM add-ins but that didn't work.
how to use the offset function to create a dynamic range in Excel 2010. An in-house Excel form I work with spans columns A thru P and has three sections. In Section 2 the user fills in employees who are requesting to work overtime. Section 2 starts row 12 and ends row 61. It's sometimes necessary to add rows to this section. How do I make this section/range dynamic using the offset function?
I'm trying to reference text from one worksheet to another. The data is all in column A on the "Template" worksheet, however the row varies (ie starts at row 5, then 7 the 9 etc). The cell row is always +2 rows on the previous row, and column A.
What can I use to pull across the cells with the information that I want, onto the "Report" worksheet?
Windows 8.1, Excel 2010. I have this code that updates the links. I use it in various workbooks, but they are all going to the same document; "Data Master (QC"
When I change computers, I have to manually tell each document where to fine the linked document. I want the documents being linked to look for the file path in a designated cell, i.e Cell E3 = "C:UsersOwnerDocuments1-QCDataData Master (QC).xlsm".
Something like ThisWorkbook.UpdateLink Name:=ThisWorkbook.Range("E3").Value
I'm attempting to list my data... I have a dynamic table that has the following columns:
number of countries country 1 country 2 country 3
1 Egypt
3 USA Egypt Scotland
2 Scotland USA
As you may have guessed, I want trends on these countries. That would be easier to do if I had a single "Country" columns but I have to work that way.
I would have wanted to work with a pivottable (because they're so "user-friendly" (not always though^^)) but I didn't find a way to do it.
The reason why I want to work with a pivottable is to be able to link my countries results to the rest of the table.. If that's not possible, I'd still want to be able to reference them and say "USA, egypt and scotland pop up 2 times"
I have a workbook that filters the data on the worksheet "Reports" this then adds new worksheets and copies and pastes the relevant data that has been sorted, this is done by the name in column "B".
What I need is to rename the new worksheets with the data that is in cell "B2" of the new sheets.
I know there are many ways to create an "All Data" worksheet. Copy & Paste is the most obvious or pasting named ranges into the new worksheet. I have a workbook with 48 tabs with up to 1000 rows of data per sheet. I need to merge each tab into one main "All Data" worksheet.
How to combine these 48 sheets in an easier way than the two options I already know (Copy/Past or Paste Named Range). Any Add-In's to Excel that can possibly do this? I am using Excel 2010.
How to make this "All Data" worksheet combining data from each sheet of the 48 tabs would be most useful.
I have a form with a main list box and several other list boxes. I drag and drop records from the main list box to the others. When I drop a record onto one of the list boxes, a corresponding worksheet is updated with the same record. This works just fine.
The problem I have is:I close and re-open the form after having added some dataDrag/Drop a record to the list boxThe worksheet won't find the first empty rowExample: If the worksheet already contains 4 rows of data, I have to drag/drop 5 times before the fifth row will be updatedI would like to drop the data the first time and have the first blank row updated
Notes:
1.) I have tried variations of "xlUp", "xlDown", and SpecialCells(xlCellTypeLastCell) in the "Worksheets("Monday")... line of code; all to no avail.
2.) The cells contain formatting (borders)
Here is the relevant code:
Code:
'Copy items from the list box to the worksheet For intI = 1 To ListBox2.ListCount For intJ = 1 To ListBox2.ColumnCount If IsEmpty(Worksheets("Monday").Cells(intI + 1, intJ)) Then Worksheets("Monday").Cells(intI + 1, intJ).Value = ListBox2.List(intI - 1, intJ - 1) End If Next intJ Next intI
I have a rolling 12 month (each day in column) tab in Excel 2010 that references variances by ID number in column A, and the column headers are each day for 366 days (2011). I would like to create a tab that shows the past 10 day's variances by ID number. I haven't been able to write a formula that will look at the date headers and the row ID number to return the figure for that day. Here is a sample of the 12 month rolling and the 10 days at a glance that I want to populate.
Rolling 12 Months IDName12/25/201212/26/201212/27/201212/28/201212/29/2012and so on 1234Employee Name - - - - (11.07) 1235Employee Name - - - 0.20 - 1236Employee Name - - - - - 1237Employee Name - - - - (1.00)
I'm trying to create a macro that will look at each worksheet in a workbook and then delete the last line of data on each worksheet. The last row can vary on each worksheet. This is what I have come up with but it is not working. I am on Excel 2010 and Windows 7.
I have a workbook with data on sheet1 and a summary on sheet 2. I want to use two drop down boxes on sheet 2 (B3 and B6) to look up matching data from sheet 2. What formula is best to enable these two look_up values to be used? I saw an example where the two values were separated by a comma within {} i.e. {B2,B6}, but only got an error when I entered the formula into my Excel 2010 sheet.
I have previously used VLOOKUP, but this comes back saying I have to many arguments. I can attach the workbook if that makes it easier to explain.
I am using Excel 2007 in Windows XP. I am trying to change the worksheet referenced in a formula from the label of the worksheet to the index of the sheet. I want to use this macro in multiple workbooks, and the relevant sheets have different names but are all in the same position.
I used "record macro" to get the structure of my code. It gave me the line:
I can't get this to work, and I can't find the syntax for this anywhere. I've tried with and without quotes, exclamation points, changing to A1 notation and using "Range," "Sheets," "Worksheets," "Item(3)", and many other combinations, but haven't gotten it right.
Most of the errors I get are "Runtime Error 1004: Application-defined or object-defined error."
I am trying to insert a Pivot table with dynamic Name Ranges. It needs to start from Cell B1 as Column A has hidden formulas in them. I created an Dynamic Name range and tried to insert a pivot table. Excel then throws out a error stating "Data source reference is not valid". I tried re-saving the document but still no luck.
I have this workbook in which each sheet refers to a month in a specific year (e.g. Jan12, Nov13), plus an "overall" sheet where I would like to, among other stuff, create a button that would lead me to the sheet refering to "today's month".
Although I know how to create a "static" macro that leads me to a particular sheet, I don't know how to create one in which the sheet it refers to is changing every single month.
I'm trying to create a set of three dynamic/dependent drop down lists of date values, based on a set of imported data. Depending on whether the preferred choice is to list all dates in a range or just dates on the 15th, the available start and end drop down lists will change.
In addition, if possible I would then like to display a list of valid dates (not sure if this needs to be VBA).
The attached sheet shows/explains what I am attempting but here it is as well:
If B3 is set to show all dates in the month then:
the first dropdown option for C3 will be the first date of IMPORT (D2) the first dropdown option for C4 will be the C3 value, to the last date in IMPORT (D) column
If B3 is set to show 15th of the month then:
the dropdown for C3 will be the first date of IMPORT (D) column with a date of 15th the dropdown for C4 will be in the range of C3 to the last date of IMPORT (D) column with a date of 15th only dates of 15th will be listed in both C3 and C4 dropdownlists
General
the dates in IMPORT column D are taken from IMPORT column A, B & C, which will be imported and will always be date sequential the number of rows of date entries will change with every import but there will never be any blank rows between dates the values in IMPORT columns A, B & C will always be numerical, and can be referenced if required [ideally] the LIST OF DATES will be populated with the date range, based on the option selected in B3
I'm fairly familiar with Excel (2010) and I have also done some VBA but I'm new to dynamic, nested dropdown lists and I'm unsure what the most practical way is to achieve this.
I have some VBA that dumps various sheets data into an SQL Database.
Part of that requires me to sanitize all of the fields before they make it to the DB, (at least to prevent the code from breaking itself w/ errant ' characters.
right now my code is as follows
Code: If InStr(aa, "'") > 0 Then aa = Replace(aa, "'", "''") End If If InStr(bb, "'") > 0 Then bb = Replace(bb, "'", "''")
[Code] ......
I was hoping to condense it to something like the following, however it is not working how I hoped / want it to. .. I had found somewhere out there that this Eval() function possibly could be used to 'reference' dynamic variables, however it does not appear to work at all anymore, and even then it may only have worked to 'read' and not 'write' to the variable. (Excel 2010, on Windows 7 64-bit).
Had been using this formula for almost 3 years, recently the formula didn't work properly as the range goes down halfway only instead of to the last data in the column. I'm using Excel 2010 now.
I have created a spreadsheet with 3 month inspection schedules on using the formula below.
=DATE(YEAR(C50),MONTH(C50)+3,DAY(C50))
I then copy this in to a cell where I want the date to appear... and then in to another cell where I want a further 3 month date to appear. Obviously changing the cell reference.
I would like the formula to ignore the very first cell "C50" if there is no date inputted in this cell.
How we can select specific cells in the filtered data using VBA in Excel 2010.
I need to select 10th column, 5th row data .. or 10th column, 6th row data .. or 13th column, 8th row data...
How to select this data using VBA.. I am struck here .. If I give the below code.. the hidden cells inbetween the filtered data is getting selected.. only the first row is getting selected correctly.. i.e, ..rnVisible(1, 2).Select .. If I change the row like rnVisible(2, 12).Select its selecting the hidden cells ..
Dim rnVisible As Range Set rnVisible = ActiveSheet.Rows("2:10000").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible) rnVisible(2, 12).Select MsgBox ActiveCell.Address
In earlier versions if I used the double clicked the autofill handle it would only fill down to the next adjacent cell containing data. Now it fills down to the bottom of all the data regardless of whether there is a blank cell or not e.g
X X X Z X X X Z X X X Z X X X X X
Now this happens
X X X Z X X X Z X X X Z X X ...Z X X X Z
How can I stop this as I need to enter different data in the next section?
Every day I receive a csv file of NAMES, PLACES, ADDRESSES, IDS, SPECIAL ID (ETID), ITEMS, QUANTITY, AND OTHER INANE INFORMATION. which is a list of people from places that are ordering item(s) for each ETID)
I CONVERT TO EXCEL BECAUSE I HAVE TO CLEAN THE DATA FORMATTING, AND SPLIT A COLUMN INTO 2 (LAST NAME AND ETID ARE TOGETHER).
I need to put the items into a form, one order per ETID.
I tend to receive on NAME, PLACE, ADDRESS, sending orders for multiple ETIDS.
I don't know the easiest or best way to get the info into the order form. I have designed the form in word and excel.
I have been using a macro to search and highlight customer addresses for me, however I have changed my worksheet and now have the addresses in two columns instead of one (D for the numbers, E for street names) for sorting purposes.
What I would like to do is either; find a way to search using data from 2 cells to get a result, or have multiple results highlight and popup.
Using: Excel 2010
Code: Sub SEARCH_FUNCTION() Set FoundCell = Sheets("Route").Cells.find(What:=Sheets("Intro").Range("G15"), LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False, SearchFormat:=False) If Not FoundCell Is Nothing Then With FoundCell
I am in the process of setting up some graphs. The graphs will show the last 6 months of data so they move as each month is goes. I saw a slick way of doing this using the count function but this did not quite fulfill my needs. What I was looking for is to be able to input the start month in a cell. The cell would be part of the function within the formula. I created a simplified version of the spreadsheet below.

Then I created my names using the ctrl-F3
Names.jpg
I then created the graph I wanted and wanted to use the formula =SERIES(Sheet1!$B$3,!chtCat,!chtIssuesReported,1). This kept getting an error indicated nothing really. It basically says there is something wrong with my Series function. I have a working version of a similiar worksheet I have been basing my entries on. They look almost identical but mine is failing. I also created a new file and tried this and it still fails. I can run the formula evaluator within Excel 2010 against the !chtCat and !chtIssuesReported names and they both return the correct value (which equals areas on the spreadsheet). I have also tried to enter the spreadsheet name and a tab in front of the names to get them to work and still get an error. Basicall I am trying to create the graph below (this grpah is using the hard coded locations)
I'm trying to dynamically populate ranges to facilitate dynamic charts being generated.
I use excel 2010 at work, and 2011 for mac at home.
Dynamic chart ranges populated from named ranges as selected in nested indirectly sourced validation lists
I want any selection made in a dependent validation list which contains a list of named ranges to trigger a worksheet_change event which copies the range the selection points to and pastes it into a dynamic range in another column, beginning as a specified cell.I've tried using this, put together from some code examples from similar, but different issues.
Code: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Not Intersect(Target, Me.Range("B2")) Is Nothing Then Range(Range("B2").Value).Copy Range("P2").Paste End If End Sub
Trouble is, I don't really understand this code. It doesn't appear to do anything when I make a worksheet change in "B2", but I don't know exactly what it is. I suspect that perhaps the fact that "B2" is validated from an indirect source might be difficult?
I am using Excel 2010 and I am trying to average the amount of days in a month to a daily average per person in my worksheet.
Total sales per person A5 = 10 - This is the Grand total per person for column A A6 =4 A7=6
Daily average per person C5=2.6 - Average for all persons here C6=2.0 C7=3.0
The formula I am using is:
=(SUMPRODUCT($A$6:$A$15,C6:C15))/$A5
Which gives me an answer of 2.6 in cell C5 as shown above which is what I am wanting.
Please note that my cell range for my staff goes from 6-15 for both Column A and C where the other cells are blank in both columns.
My question is, If I was to clear all the data in both Columns A6:A15 and C:6:C15, cell C5 would return to a #VALUE. How to I change the formula so that if the cells were Blank, cell C5 would also be blank until I enter data for each person again?
