Exit Function- The Result Returned To Me And Exit (all) Open Functions
Apr 24, 2009I would like to call upon a function until a certain criterion is fullfilled. Then, I would like to have the result returned to me and exit (all) open functions. For value1 = 1 and value2 = 10 I expect value1*value2 = 100. Instead, the routine returnz zero. What is the logical flaw in the code below.
Function testfunction(value1, value2)
If value1 = value2 Then
'Calculating the difference
testfunction = value1 * value2
Exit Function
ElseIf value1 < value2 Then
value1 = value1 + 1
Call testfunction(matrix1, matrix2)
End If
End Function
Alternative To OR
Dec 18, 2009I use an Array Constant in an IF statement, rather than using OR?
I have tried the following without success:
=IF(A1={0,1},"Something","Something Else")
Which would look like this using OR:
=IF(OR(A1=0,A1=1),"Something","Something Else")
Is it possible? If so, what's the right syntax?
Alternative For INDIRECT
Jan 26, 2009I have used the function INDIRECT in 1 of my files.
The disadvantage is that both files (source and target) have to be open.
Is there a substitute for INDIRECT that works with a closed source file?
SUMIFS Alternative
Jun 17, 2009I've been looking for an alternative to SUMIFS as I have a sheet I need backwardly compatible with Excel 2003. I've looked at SUMPRODUCT which I understand is a good alternative to COUNTIFS but does not allow for summing. I've now moved on to looking at an array formula I picked up from an internet search, but it's not working properly for me. The crux of my Excel 2007 formula is:

Jan 21, 2010I'm using sumif to get the total number of OT minutes/hours rendered by an employee. In a company with 1K employees, doing so proves to be tedious as I need to rename the criteria for each formula. Is there an easier way to do this? See attachment for more details. I'm using Excel 2003.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIF Limitation - On Alternative
Jul 23, 2009I have a lot of data that I need to have organized out but as far as I can tell an IF statement is the only thing that could work. I work at a casino and there are about 6,000 games that I need to be able to sort through. The games are classified by sections A - Q. Each section contains anywhere from 30 - 50 banks, and each bank contains anywhere from 4 - 20 games. This is what I am trying to accomplish.
Have a drop down that lists zones A - Q. If the user chooses A, for the next column to populate with a drop down of all of the banks in A. Then for the user to choose the bank they want and then have the next colum populate a drop down with the games in A>bank1. So basically...
Zone>Bank>Machine
then once you choose the machine, for the columns to the right to auto populate the information on that game such as themes ect.
Zone>Bank>Machine>Information on that machine
I have another sheet that contains the inventory of all of the games that I am using as my "database". I am able to get this working great with IF statements, but I obviously need to be able to use more than 8. Here is my current code...
=IF(A164="A",ABankList,IF(A164="B",BBankList,IF(A164="C",CBankList,IF(A164="D",DBankList,IF(A164="E" ,EBankList,IF(A164="F",FBankList,IF(A164="G",GBankList,IF(A164="H",HBankList))))))))
Alternative To A If Statement
Oct 7, 2008I am trying to make an IF statement and need to enter 12 if's. Excel will only let me go to 7. Example, if Jan is in AE11 the copy the number from B96, if Feb is in AE11 then copy number from c96. Everything works up to July.

Jun 4, 2009I use a spreadsheet to keep track of stock at work.
The invoices are put into rows with the stock code and qty next to each other.
IE:
Invoice No | Stock Code | Qty | Stock Code | Qty | Stock Code | Qty | Stock Code | Qty ect..
I am currently using an If function to check all the cells for an instance of each stock item in a total of four columns.
An Alternative To Nested IF's
Sep 19, 2007I was creating a formula in excel yesterday that used nested IF's but I soon found out that the maximum number you can use is 7. So I did a bit of digging and found out that I would be better of using a Select Case in VB.
What I want to do is this:
=IF((SEARCH("case1",A1)),"text1",IF((SEARCH("case2",A1)),"text2",IF((SEARCH("case3",A1)),"text",...etc until I have listed every possible case and I want to do this for a range of cells A1:A1000 or however many entries I have.
I am assuming I would have to use code similar to the solution in this thread:
[url]
The only thing is I cannot translate this to what I am doing. Do I need to write a loop to go through the entire range of cells I want to check? How do I determine if a specific string is contained within a cell? Once the macro is written do I refer to it from a cell or run it from within the macro menu? Please bear with me as I am new to this and have not coded in VB since school.
Alternative To Comments
Jul 30, 2008For each cell, instead using a comment, I need another way to show a large amount of principaly letter texts, without using hypervincules, and ofcourse comments.
By the way, the same text I enter or modify put in this "way", I need to modify in the MSWord document and viceversa.
I appreciate the linking do not open another app, because the large amount of them I need to work with.
Loop Alternative
Sep 5, 2008Dim myRow As Long
Dim myCol As String
Dim Search As String
Sheets("Master Holdings").Range("H2")
Application.Screenupdating=false
mycol="E"
For myRow=6000 To 1 Step -1
If Activesheet.Cells(myrow, mycol).Value Search Then
Rows(myRow).Delete
End If
Next myRow
Application.ScreenUpdating=True
End Sub
Is there a better way to perform this code?

Any Alternative To Loop Until
Mar 22, 2007I have this excel project that captures identification numbers using a scanner. once the scanner gets the info, it will mark the date/time the person was scanned. my problem is once the info scanned is not on the list, it will continue searching till i do an escape or ctrl-break.
heres the

INDEX As An Alternative For INDIRECT
Feb 18, 2009In 1 of my spreadsheet I make use of the function INDIRECT to access cells in another spreadsheet. This works fine but has the disadvantage that both file have to be open.
It seems that INDEX can do the same, but: the sourcefile doesn't have to be open. I have tried it and this works.
However: the directory of the file I'm working on will change in the near future (maybe more than once)
Therefore I want 1 central place with the directory and file names and use these in the INDEX function
This is where I get into trouble
I'm not sure if it is possible, but if it is, some advice is needed on how to do this.
Alternative To Pivot Table
Jun 22, 2009I have a worksheet that has 5 columns of data, all of which are text. I am looking for a way to present/display the data in a manner similar to that of a pivot table. I'm pretty sure an actual pivot table is no good to me since I'm dealing with text, but I'm looking for something that is functionally the same.
In other words, I would love to be able to "pivot" my data and display the different relationships between the different columns. If a pivot table would display text in the "data items" field, that would be perfect..
IF Command - Too Many Levels, Alternative?
Sep 15, 2009I am trying to use the command below to report what type of bonus is to be awarded. .05% - 1% bonus, commission based.

It is telling me there are too many levels. I am not an Excel expert, so I am trying to figure out an alternative to this command, I am sure one is available.

Alternative For Paste Special
Jul 9, 2009During the execution of some code I come to a point where the properties of a range of cells needs to be converted to numeric (is at that point text).

Alternative To Merged Cells
Jul 22, 2009I have a workbook in Excel 2007 where I am creating a summation worksheet through the use of arrays which sumif and countif the other worksheets. Things went fine until about halfway through when I started getting merged cell errors. In between the calculations, I had some merged cell rows for section titles. I was not entering the array into them, but researched the error and unprotected the cells. Problem solved. Now, with 10 row to go, I started getting the error again. I unmerged the sectional title rows. I verified that the cells are not protected. However, when I ctrl+shift+enter to input the array, my formula is moving from the cell that I am inputting to, to the cell in the row directly beneath it.

Nov 2, 2004I have 12 teams(rows) and would like a cell(A21) to show the team name after determining the max value of the column(O). Is there another way to do it besides "ifs", I've maxed out the function at 7, but there are 12 teams
If I could get this figured out it would be great, and a seperate question/addition problem I would also like to do is have the cell come up the same color as it is above.
Alternative To Multiple If/Then/Else Statements
Aug 23, 2006I have are two listboxes set up, one with all the states, the other with 7 possible variable selections. So in my case I have 371 (DC, Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico are included as states in this) possible combinations here. With each combo the user needs to be able to enter up to 2 years of quarterly data (8 quarters, so 2968 pieces of data possible) and then press a button to save that data to a specified location which I will need to access at run of the overall macro.
Is there an easier way to do this then to simply assign each combination a cell? Maybe an If State = AK and Variable = TUR then find column = AK & row = TUR (per quarter) type solution?
Alternative To Multiple UserForms
May 23, 2007I have just now dutifully searched here, and elsewhere, on the topic of subforms in Excel VBA, and find nothing. Am I correct in assuming that one simply creates several userforms (and perhaps makes some modal), and launches one form from another? Are there any tutorials on guidelines for using several userforms at once?
