I would like to be able to find out what other spreadsheets rely on the spreadsheet I'm currently in.
For example spreadsheet A cell D1 links into spreadsheet C cell F1
So if I was in spreadsheet C I'd like to be able to run or do something that told me that cell F1 was used in spreadsheet A cell D1.
I can't find the Edit Links command in Excel. where it is?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a large spreadsheet that has links to CSV files. Every month I need to create a new folder and put the CSV files into that folder, all the CSV files from month to month have the same name for each worksheet.
I'm trying to do Find and replace on the Folder name within the links to change say, February to March so I can just add the CSV files for each month and the spreadsheet will link to the new CSV file in the folder.
I have even tried adding all the February CSV's to the March folder so that when I overwrite the CSV's it will update the master spreadsheet, but it keeps asking me where to look for the folder.
Here is an example of a link:
='\FileservermsbilBRANCH REPORTSBM ReportsFebruary[TItemToDispense@40186 Export Dispensed Item Data-00.CSV]TItemToDispense@40186 Export Di'!BM2
As you can see the folder is named February within the link and I need to replace it with March.
The code below is supposed to find blank cells in column E on sheet3, copy some data from adjacent cells, create a string from that data and paste on sheet4 in Column J. I get duplicate data and or most blank cells? What the heck did I write.

I have changed the attachment to use CSV's
I am trying to create a report that I can enter the codes I am looking for and the formula will search the sheets within the report and once the results are found then find the average of those results.
What I am trying to do is search the codes from Sheet 1 under Outlet and ESA(in Blue) in sheet A,B and C. The problem is the ESA code seen in column I of A,B,C is only used when column L is empty in A,B,C.
Once the relevant codes are found I then need to look for the KPI's seen in sheet 1 B4, B6 and B8, they can be found in A,B,C in column R. then the result comes from column S in A,B or C.
Once the result is found for each code I want to find the average of them, with the answer to populate in yellow in sheet 1
I want the formula to be able to handle more or less codes as well as adjust the formula so I can add more sheets(possible D,E,F,G etc)
I have a long list of data in a table. the first column is a date&machine. in another column there is a comment field. To find the first occurance of a date/machie and report the relavent coment I have been using a vlookup; this works well. Is there any way to find a second or third comment for the same date & machine?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a formula that links different conditions together.
For example, I'm entering the formula into G9 and I want the formula to be if G7 is equal or greater to G16 then the answer should be 30, if not then the answer is 0.
Simple enough I know this is my formula to use "=IF(G7>=G16,30,0)" but I want it to look past that.
Basically I want it to say if G7 is equal or greater to G16 then the answer is 30, if not it's 0 BUT if G7 is equal to greater than G17 my answer is 60 BUT if my answer is equal to or greater than G18 my answer is 120.
G17 will always be a larger number than G16, and G18 will always be a larger number than G17.
I have a workbook (we'll call it Mainbook)that has links to files on a shared drive (call these subbooks). For some reason, unless the "subbook" files are open, my links in "Mainbook" will not update.

For example one formula on the sheet is: =If( 'WF Tracker 2008'!$D$5=AN$4,INDEX('WF Tracker 2008'!$B$6:$P$10, MATCH($E36,'WF Tracker 2008'!$B$6:$B$10,), MATCH(AN$7,'WF Tracker 2008'!$B$6:$P$6,)),IF(AN26="N/A",AN31,"N/A"))
and initially, sheet 'WF Tracker 2008' doesnt exist so the formulas all produce #ref! values which I expect. My problem is that I Run a macro that creates the sheet 'WF Tracker 2008' but the formula dont want to refresh/update unless I individually go into each cells formula in the formula bar and hit return.
I have an unwanted link and I can't remove it. I have tried through the Edit Links dialog box, searched for [ in formulas throughout the workbook and gone searching manually for the reference but to no avail.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have some sumifs() functions in cells in a workbook that contain external links in them:
Code:
=SUMIFS('C: empForAuditor[Budget Employees 2013 (0055521).xlsm]Labor Summary'!$E$54:$E$88,'C: empForAuditor[Budget Employees 2013 (0055521).xlsm]Labor Summary'!$C$54:$C$88,$G50,'C: empForAuditor[Budget Employees 2013 (0055521).xlsm]Labor Summary'!$A$54:$A$88,H$49)
The formulas work fine if the external file is open. However if the linked file is not loaded and I load the file with the external links, as soon as the file with links is calculated, some of externally linked cells turn to "#VALUE" errors. I have a need to have only certain people see the employee file that is referenced above but the others need to update the file with the external links and not have errors in cells.
The really weird thing is that some cells yield the #VALUE error and some don't, even when both have SUMIFS() functions in them. Even cells with the Exact same formula in them will sometimes yield #VALUE and other times yield a real value.
I am working with a workbook, which has links pointing to many other workbooks. Many a times, I need to open the source workbook to verify whether the source data is correct. It takes a long time to open the other files and locate the exact cell. Following is an example of the links in the workbook.
'W:CentralMMonitoringResearch[Dallas.xls]CONSUMERS'!AH13
Some cells are linked to the sheets in the same workbook. I know that I can use Excel's audit function, but I found that it doesn't work well when the formula referes to other workbooks. Therefore I want to design a macro, which will land me to source cells. The macro needs to analyse the link; open the workbook to which the link refers; and find the correct cell in that workbook. If the link refers to a worksheet in the same workbook, then it should not open that workbook again. I don't know, how to use a link like the one given above, and analyse it using VBA to decide whether it needs to open another workbook.
I have cells (range named Formulas) in a worksheet A (wsA) linking to another workbook. This workbook has several sheets, each a different forecast. From a Radio Button Group on wsA I would like to choose forecast, FC1-FC3, and then all the cells in the range Formulas would be updated with the choosen FC.
I would like a VBA script to handle this:When the workbook is activated the present Forecast in the Radio Button Group should be stored as a variable (oldFC)When I choose a new forecast, the value should be stored in a new variable (newFC)I then want to loop through the whole range (Formulas) and update each cell and it's part of string value to the newFC
Before update:
wsA cell N3='H:[5500-plan-06.xls]FC 3'!N$16
wsA cell N4='H:[5500-plan-06.xls]FC 3'!N$17
When new Forecast is choosen this should be update to:
wsA cell N3='H:[5500-plan-06.xls]FC 1'!N$16
wsA cell N4='H:[5500-plan-06.xls]FC 1'!N$17
I'm going to attempt to explain the problem I am having with a project in Excel. I have tried to search using several different terms but have not been successful in finding an answer to my problem. I came close with a MS help document entitled "HOW TO: Sort Cells Without Sorting Linked Cells in Excel 2000". But that document does not directly address the solution. I think there is a clue there but I can't figure it out.
What I'm trying to do:
I am trying to sort a data list that is one worksheet without affecting the links I have created to that data in a second worksheet. I have two worksheets; one holds the database, or list data; the other is a formatted price list where I have created links to the data in the first sheet. The idea is that I want to be able to manipulate the data in the data list and make changes to it while keeping the price list in a fixed format but with updated prices. I am using relative links and I have had some success in the past with these links automatically updating when inserting rows or cells, or moving the cell containing the formula. But this time I am trying to sort the data. When I sort the data the formulas in the linked cells simply point to the same cell reference as they did before the sort, producing the wrong results. I want the links to follow the referenced cells so that the results remain the same on the price list even when the rows in the data change position. For example:
The data on the worksheet named "Database" is in a list from A10:P65. I sort this list by two columns, first by Categories then by ManuPartNo. After I sorted the list I went to the worksheet named "Price List" and set up links to the cells in the data list that contained the correct information for my items. Some of my items are a combination of two or more rows from the data list. This works fine. If I make a change to the data in the list the price list automatically updates. If I insert a row or column to the data list the formulas on the Price List continue to work just fine. But, if I sort the data again, the formulas on the Price List no longer point to the correct cells in the data list. The formulas remain unchanged, but the rows of data move. I expected the formulas to update just like they do when I insert a row or move a block of data with cut and paste. Is there a way to force Excel to follow the rows as they move after a sort? Excel does this automatically when inserting rows. Why not with sorts? Where can I go to learn more about how to do this?
For example
Name Address Phone # zip
Danielle 4561
Danielle 9852
Danielle 22
Danielle 69
Joe 895
Joe 28
John 9821
John 1114
John 698
Say I did a search for Joe. I want to report back all the addresses in which he resided but there's no way to tell how many rows of data each person has. Joe has 2 rows, Danielle has 4 rows and John has three. How do I report back all the relevant rows?
I am linking to cells on a spreadsheet and in some cases the formula is showing in the cell and in others the contents of the linked cell. I have forced updating (F9 )and F2 enter with no effect. Is their something i am missing as I want all the links to update automatically. If I copy and paste a working formula into one of these cells it updates albeit with the wrong reference but if i go in and edit F2 etc then it shows as a formula.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe master has rows corresponding to numbered files:
4300 | CellValue1 | CellValue2 | etc
4301 | CellValue1 | CellValue2 | etc
In attempting a simple formula (a couple VBA codes I tried did not work and were probably substantially more than I needed anyway), I made the following:
='CMain FolderSub Folder[concatenate(cell w/file number,".xls")]Sheet1'!A1
This is identical to the copy/paste link formula currently in use except that I am trying to have the actual file number/name generated off the master list instead of what is in the file itself.
Purpose: in case I was not clear on this above, I am trying to automatically populate the master worksheet with the data from the workbook. The current procedure is to copy a line of the data from the workbook, then paste as a link in to the master worksheet on the row corresponding to the file number.
I have a template file which has a reference to a cell on a sheet in another workbook.
I need to copy this template to 250 workbooks. However, everytime I copy this template sheet into a workbook, it updates the reference to the template name!
Is there an absolute reference I can use for the sheetname?
Example: Workbook Template - Sheet1 - Cell A1 = Value
Workbook Template - Sheet2 - Cell A1 = Sheet1!$A$1
So for so good, but when I copy Sheet2 to a new workbook, I need to have the exact same reference; ie. Sheet1$A$1 and NOT = ['C:Workbook template']Sheet1!$a$1
I have a sheet called "Sheet1" in workbook "File1". In this sheet, I have a lot of formulas and some of them involves linking to external files located in E: Finance folder. Is there a way to automatically highlight those cells containing a formula that references to external files?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have two worksheets in my report cards:

Student Name
=Data!$A2

=Data!$B2
Reading
=Data!$C2
Science
=Data!$D2
How do I create worksheets (report cards) for additional students? I have 300 students in the school. I need the next worksheet to reference Data!$A3. I know how to cut and paste the report card template and then edit =Data!A2 to be =Data!A3 to create a report card for Sally. How do I create the 300 report cards I need?
I've been teaching for 13 years. I can create a report card for each student in my class and edit each worksheet individually for each student. Now I've been asked to do this for the whole school and I don't know how to create the other 299 sheets I need.
I'm trying to create a formula similar to this:
=Calculations!(Indirect("N"&A2)-Indirect("AB"&A2)+Indirect("AA"&A2)
The idea is that the user will enter a value in cell A2. That number will determine the appropriate rows in the formula above.
Here's my Formula:
Range("H2:S2").Select
Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range("H2:S2702"), Type:=xlFillDefault
Range("H2:S2702").Select
This is dragging the formula to the end of the report. My dilemma is that this was captured with the macro recorder. Is there a way to change "S2702" with whatever row Column S ends with? Meaning this formula will be used on different sized reports so the numbers will vary. I just need a direct statement to compensate however large the report is.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to perform a copy & paste operation by hand which to me should be easy in theory. I have a worksheet whose formulas have been corrupted. I have a backup of this sheet- I'd like to copy the backup sheet into the workbook. The problem is that the formulas, which reference other worksheets within the workbook, are copied over as links to the backup workbook instead of the new workbook they are being copied too. This seems simple, but how do I copy the worksheet and the references without having to go through all of the references by hand to only apply to the local book.

The reports can be made up of numicerial values, text and dates. Let me know if more information is needed or an example worksheet.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way that formula links in spreadsheets can use environment variables to reference formulas in other spreadsheets/addins?
For example, I have a spreadsheet that imports templates which call functions in an addin. The spreadsheet, templates and the addin could be installed into either the 'Program Files' or the 'Program Files (x86)' folders.
I am experiencing issues with the formula references when moved between 32 and 64 bit computers since Excel seems to store the full path of the addin in the Excel formula (even though it hides it when the reference resolves its path) in my templates. I would like to update the references in my templates so that they use an environment variable (set by my software installer) to always know the correct path of the addin.

Please see attached two books,
The first book is a report that is generated on my reporting systeM (Report I use everyday)
The second report is the one that I have created myself using a macro (macro report)
I have to manually manipulate this report everyday and extract some information from it to
a custom report(macro report) that we use everyday.
I have created a macro for this - please see my code below.
I need some help with some small issues I am having,(Highlighted in yellow)
1) I need to include a Total line, but the size of the report varies everyday from say
around 30 rows to over a 100 rows. Is there a way i can make the total always 2 rows below
the report, please see attached for an example.
2) I need to hardcord a formula in on Column F and G. But again the report varies in size,
the columns do not change but there could be lots more rows. how do i take this into
account
The formula i need to hard code into column F is
=(IF(($D$60>=0)*AND($D$60<=5000000),0.0009))+IF(($D$60<=10000000)*AND($D$60>5000000),0.0007
)+IF($D$60>10000000,0.0005)
D60 in the above formula is just the total of all the other months summed together.
For Column E the formula is just =F*E But again the size in the report varies.
