Is it possible to make a back-reference in a cell formula similar to regular expressions?
Example:
=IF(I15=FALSE, [H17 * INDEX(Percentages,I17+1)], IF(A17="", $1, 0))
...where [ ] indicates the actual reference and $1 indicates the reference number
Here is the scenario:
A B C D
BananasApplesOrangesTotal113=A1+B1+C1
I need to reference the formula in D1 with the cells headers names.
In a perfect world, it would take
=A1+B1+C1:
and produce:
=Bananas+Apples+Oranges
I am using vlookup to get a cell value from another sheet, but if the cell has "&" or "/" I need to substitue "&" and "/" with "and" so that the cell can be added later to a url.
i am using =VLOOKUP(a1,Sheet2!A1:W17968,6) to get the value of a1 in sheet 2 and return the value of column 6
this will return "Audio Cables & Leads" but i need it to say Audio Cables and Leads
I need the formula to also check and replace "/" with "and" as well so cables/wire will be Cables and wire
I have a layout something like the following:
A1
A2
A3
[Code]....
Where each (i.e., A1) represents a location. I have tried to use a coordinate system but this will not work for the back-to-back locations. (Assuming each location is 2 feet wide, For example A1 to C1 is 4 feet apart, not 2 feet (as Euclidean or rectilinear would calculate it as).
Would there be a way to incorporate an if statement for those locations that are back-to-back? As a rectilinear distance calculation would work as long as the locations are not part of the same "block".
Ultimately I am looking to have a matrix which contains all the distances between each location:
A1
A2
A3
B1
[Code].....
Here is my formula:
=IFERROR(INDEX(Stored!$D$22:$AN$795, MATCH(D11,Stored!$E$22:$E$795,0), MATCH(E10,Stored!$C$22:$AN$22,0)),0)
For some reason it keeps pulling back the value that is one cell to the right, so one column off.
What could it be.
In this example it should pull back N363 and it is pulling back O363.
know if there is a formula for counting back a year from a date?
Basically what I have is we operate a rolling absence/ sick year and so what happens is on a staff members return from absence/ sick we look back exactly one calendar year from the last day of absence and count the number of days off absent in that period for comparison against their paid allowance.
I have posted a mock up sheet and what I am looking for is a formula for column C. The highlighted cells are the period it would be if today was the last day of absence.

I want the code to say, If Qtr = 1 And Year = 2007, then bring back Org Name, If Qtr = 2 And Year = 2006, then bring back Org Name and so forth.
The code should loop through a range of constant data (Region Name), until the Region Name is blank.

Set OrgCell = Sheets("DATA Removed").Range("A2")
Set OrgTargetCell = Sheets("Overdue").Range("A3")

i = i + 1

cell AT7 is a formula which brings back a numerical value i.e. 15.
in cell AS7 i need a formula that displays the value of cell AT7, as long as that value is less than 15, if the value is 15 or higher then 0 should be displayed.
I dont know why i cant get this, seems like a simple IF statement to me, but who knows.
Once this formula is done i need to drag it down about 2500 cells and autosum to get a column total...
I’m trying to send an array of values INTO a user defined function, do a little math on it, and then send the resulting array back to the caller. The caller in this case is an array formula in an excel cell.
I can get it to build an array after the math, but I can’t get it to pass the resulting array back to the formula. The following snippet is a simple version of the code. Here I am building the incoming array in the macro, but same difference at the end. The outgoing Oil_spgr variable never seems to contain the full, final array.
I was wondering whether there is an easy way to change a formula containing a named range back into it's original cell reference in VB. For example I have a cell saying =cogs2008/revenue2008 and I want to change it back into =A2/A3. Any ideas?
I have a spreadsheet that each month, we populate a new row of data. The rows are already set up in the spreadsheet, but we just populate the new row.
We are calculating a rolling 12 month total. Each month, we have to modify the formula below to pick up the last 12 months.
For example, next month we will populate data into cell M91, then we need to manually modify our formula to read M80:M91. Wondering if there is a way to have the formula below to look at a range, such as M100:M1, and count the last 12 months? This would eliminate us having to change this each month on several spreadsheets.
In Summary: I would like to replace the M79:M90 to count the last 12 months instead of changing the formula each month.
Here is the formula:
=(FVSCHEDULE(1,M79:M90/100)-1)*100
I have a number of statements within the Sheet Event Code (Excel 2007). Three times lately I have added a column and had to go back into the code and find all of the references that needed changing to reflect the new column.
I have been working on this for a couple of days and even tried EE, but to no success.
I have read that Defined Names / Constants should be used as often as possible, but even trying that, the VBA code errors out or "hangs up". Even within Bill Jalen's book (VBA and Macros 2007), there is nothing that addresses this, especially using Intersect.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim rng As Range
On Error GoTo mEnd
Set rng = Sheets("Log").[F14:F10000]
If Not Intersect(rng, Target) Is Nothing Then
If Target = "" Then
With Sheets("Log")
I've got a forecast from a customer and need to summarize it with part number, quantity and date.
The spreadsheet is part no in column a due dates in row 1 values at the intersection of part no and due date and i don't want 0 quantity to report back.
my output needs to be partno, date due, quantity.
Column O is names and column P autogenerates email addresses with
=CONCATENATE(SUBSTITUTE(O2," ","."),"@company.com; ")
So, John Smith becomes
"john.smith@company.com; "
That's perfect. I want to move it to another worksheet. When I paste it to Worksheet 2, A1 I get
=CONCATENATE(SUBSTITUTE(Sheet1!O2," ","."),"@company.com; ")
So why does that only generate "@company.com; "?
I have a worksheet that will be referencing data from a 2nd open workbook.
Although the 2nd workbook will contain common worksheet names (eg stats), the file name will be volatile.
Consider the formula in wb ws1 cell A1 used to copy a value from wb2 (39961(28-May-09).xls) ws1 (stats) cell B1 if workbook 2's name was static.
='[39961(28-May-09).xls]Stats'!$B$1
In my case, the reference file will always be different and must be substituted in the forumla above (red portion). How can I adapt my formulae recognize the available workbook. I have the file name available now in cell C4 of WB1.
I have a spreadsheet that imports data from a database and into pivot. Several departments use that spreadsheet, but depending on the department, they may want to see e.g. 3, 4 or 5 different fields than other departments.
My spreadsheet also includes a great number of formulas included in a macro, so whenever I get a request to include field X, Y and Z, I end up spending a lot of time adjustning all my formulas to reference the new fields.
I am trying to code the following in VBA. Excel Cells have formulae like: '=+BZ165-BZ163-BZ162-BZ160-BZ159-BZ157-BZ153'. Now I want to write code in VBA which will be able to give me the individual cells referenced in this formula: BZ165, BZ163 etc. These names can be stored in individual variables or arrays.
I will then use these for further processing. Note in cases where formula refers to data in another sheet like: '=Projects!P49' or data in another excel like '='C:Documents and SettingshoskopDesktop[Annual.xls]Quarterly'!BA$502': I would like to store the path , file name and sheetname in variables/arrays as well.
Any pointers as to how I should approach this problem?
I want to sum A2 to B10. The catch is: I have the letter "A" in cell A1, the number "2" in cell B1, the letter "B" in cell C1, and the number "10" in cell D1. In effect, I want to make a function =SUM("A1B1":"C1D1") such that it gives me =SUM(A2:B10). Hopefully, the answer will work for any function (e.g. SUMIF, COUNT, VLOOKUP, etc).
View 4 Replies View RelatedI set up formulas to count text characters in a range of cells. I'm tracking attendance and payments for a small yoga studio.
All I need to do is count "Y"s for prepaid attendance and "DI"s for drop-ins. I have the formulas working but they are absolute so inserting a row will break my sheet.
=COUNTIF(E14:Z14,"*Y*")
=COUNTIF(E11:Z11,"*DI*")
It is suppose to be that if the employee is "FT" and has worked >=4 years the return is 15. But if the employee is FT and has worked 2 years but less than 4 years then it is suppose to return 10 (these are days off) Or if the employee is FT and has worked 1 year, but less than 2 then it should return 5 days off. And all the others in the column get no days off.
I have tried to do it with structured references and with cell references I get a column of zeros!
I have a sheet which needs to look up one reference and then fill a table with the rest of them.
EG:
Cell A1 contains '0091 911'!$E$2 (cell E2 contains value 100)
Cell A2 contains =indirect(A1) and displays value 100
I need a formula which will auto fill the remaining cells in the table.
eg:
Cell A3 fills to contain '0091 911'!$E$3 (row +1)
Cell B2 fills to contain '0091 911'!$F$2 (column +1)
so it needs to fill the Indirect reference and not =indirect(A1),=indirect(A2)....
I am running a research experiment in triplicate. Upon generation of data for all three, I create an averaged value of the three. I then take this value and do more calculations with it on a separate sheet. I wanted to know if there was a way in which I could quickly generate formulas based on a changing reference cell.
Example Data:
V1A 28
V2A 26
v3A 30
AvA 28
V1B 20
V2B 22
V3B 18
AvB 20
Vxy represents the value of y sample, x triplicate. V1A being sample A, first triplicate. AvX is the average of the three values.
I want to be able to generate a formula that references AvA which can be applied to the cell immediately below to reference AvB. A simple example would be to square the average.
For example things like "=1+A1" or "=A1*B1"
Right now it changes the cells even with Paste Special!
Is there a way of getting the cell references in a formula change following a change in the content of a cell in the worksheet?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a userform that populates a list of names. As a name is added in column "D" column "C" updates a reference number using the formula =IF(D2="","",C1+1). I can get the formula to copy to the spread sheet but as a new name is added the formula stays the same. If I enter a name in cell D2 everything is fine but when I make the next entry in row 3 the same formula is entered as if it were text and not as a formula. so I wind up with a column of formulas that all say =IF(D2="","",C1+1) reguardless of what row the formula is in.

can Excel do a double if formula by looking at cells and not fixed type info.
EG: I have a % achieved and $ bonus to pay: however the % achieved & the $ bonus to pay information in the cell will change each month
So... I want the formula to say
=IF (look for cell A1 (which has %achieved) and if found use A2 ($bonus) to give me an answer... otherwise false

I am working with some fairly long formulas and I am looking for a way to highlight those cells AND work in the document. I know you can click in the cell and it will highlight them, but if you click off the cell the highlights go away. Is there a way to keep them highlighted?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a "CURRENT MONTH" tab in a workbook; in that Workbook, I have a standard report that pulls Total Revenues from cell C6 of the tab I want to reference.
For example: In my "CURRENT MONTH" tab B6 has the label "CURRENT MONTH REVENUES" C6 has the formula "='May 08'!C6"
Every month I have to change that formula to "='Jun 08'!C6" as an example for June. (it's not just one formula, there are dozens referencing May that I need to change to Jun).
I could do an Edit/Replace, but I'd rather just type in the current month tab name in another cell and have the formulas pulling the data referencing that cell.
I have noticed that if I create a row and put a reference formula in one of the cells (i.e. in Cell B3 I have "=B4", to show contents of B4), then after I do Sort and Row 3 moves else where, formula in what used to be B3 no longer points to B4, but rather to B<new row + 1>.
Absolute reference doesn't seem to be an option (i.e. "=$B$4") since after sorting rows in question the cell references in my B cells do get screwed up. I guess I want to bind a certain cell to a certain other cell, and keep that bind no matter where I move the row.
