Formula Doesn't Provide Amount As Expected


My sheet called 'Report' finds a type using a vlookup. I then have a sheet called labor, where I want to find put the total amount for labor using this formula: '=SUMIF(Report!$K$2:$K$65000;LABOUR;Report!$G$2:$G$65000)', but it only returns a '-'. I want the formula to return total amount from column G, if column K is type 'LABOUR'. Is my formula incorrect?

Recorded Macro Doesn't Seem To Provide Expected Result
On column A, I simply do an A-Z sort that gives the expected result. So I recorded it as a macro. In column G is a code that corresponds with column A. When the marcro is executed Column A is sorted but the corresponding value in G stays where it is. Clicking the A-Z button works. But when that action is recorded as a macro I get the above quirck. Since VBA is not my beef, I don't really know what wrong.

Cell That Doesn't Reach The Desired Amount
function that add to any cell that doesn't reach the disired amount.

If the required number is 14 and a calculated cell comes up with 13 or less; I need a funtion to take that number and add a penalty number to it.

For example: For arguements sake the penalty is $150.00. Suppose cell 1A has 5 and cell 1B has 5; cell 1C adds them for a total of 10. I need cell 1D to realize that the number in 1C did not equate to atleast 14 and therfore 1D should show $150.00 and for every cell selected that falls short of 14 should add an additional $150.00 to 1D.

Some Times If I Do A =if( ) Formula It Doesn't Work
What am I doing wrong here. Some times if I do a =if( ) formula it doesn't work. For example, look at the attached picture. Cell K63 should say "End of Run". But it doesn't, What gives?

Also I have had before where i do =IF(X62>$O$2,"End of Run", 0) (and $O$2 =81) and the cell when X62 is 81, not greater than. I know I can to >=, but thats not what I am doing.

Highlight A Cell Formula Result If It Doesn't Match
I've been asked to assist with modifications of an excel spreadsheet. One of the features is a column that has a formula of what the total order should be. For example, 1 base order of 25.00, plus 1 bonus order of 18.00, plus 2 bonus orders of 15.00 would be $73.00 due. Then data entry persons enter the actual amount collected. Is there a way to highlight either the cell or the result if the amount collected does not equal the amount due? I know I can accomplish this with another column, but they want to keep the columns to a minimum.

This is for a non-profit agency and the orders are now at 1000 that must be entered within a day or two period, so they want to keep the fields to a minimum so as to make the entry easier for those doing the input. And they would like the data entry person to see an immediate flag if what he or she enters as collected does not equal what is due.

Formula Requires Parameter In Quotes, Indirect Doesn't Work
I've been given a formula to use (embedded in an add-in that is password-protected). One of the parameters REQUIRES quotes.

The formula goes like this: =MYFORMULA(1,2,3,"ABC")

If I put ABC in a cell (say C5) and use the formula =MYFORMULA(1,2,3,INDIRECT(C5)), the formula doesn't work.

If I put "ABC" in cell C5, the indirect function still work make the function work.

Even if I have ABC in cell C5 and use =MYFORMULA(1,2,3,""""&C5&"""") or =MYFORMULA(1,2,3,""""&INDIRECT(C5)&""""), these won't work.

I wish I could just change the UDF behind this, but that isn't possible.

Formula- To Calculate The Amount Due Based On Cumulative Sales Once A Breakpoint Amount Is Reached
I need a formula to calculate the amount due based on cumulative sales once a breakpoint amount is reached.

Example:

Breakpoint:

cum sales are >1,000 pay at 2%

month/ sales/ cumul sales/ amount due
jan/ 100.00/ 100.00/ 0
feb/ 600.00/ 700.00/ 6.00

Doesn't Work If The Worksheet Hasn't Been Saved Yet
I'm trying to simplify a formula that I'm using in a spreadsheet that's being used mostly in Excel 2000.

2 reasons I'm doing this:

1) It doesn't work if the worksheet hasn't been saved yet.
2) It's ugly

=DATE(YEAR(DATEVALUE(MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,3) & " 20" & MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+5,2))),MONTH(DATEVALUE(MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,3) & " 20" & MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+5,2)))+1,0)

The formula returns the last day of the month of the name of the sheet. For example, if the sheet is names "Mar 07", it returns 3/31/07. (yeah, when the 2100 issue becomes a big deal, I'm not going to be ready but I have 92 years to think about it)

Even if I can't make it prettier, does anyone have a way to get the sheet name into a formula without VBA Code in a file that hasn't been saved.

Why Doesn't The Sound Play When The Value Changes Indirectly?
This is a complete mystery to me. I have some code (reproduced below) that plays a .wav file when any of the values in a1:a9 changes from 0 to greater than 0. This code works when I manually change one of the values to a trigger number in any of the cells.

The problem is that the values in a1:a9 are really pointers to other cells. For example,
a1 is "=sum(D9:D20)"

So, when I d9:d20 chnages values such that a1 changes from 0 to 5, the sound doesn't play. To put it simply, if I type "5" in a1 the sound plays. If a1 = D1 and I type "5" in D1 the value in A1 changes to 5 but the sound doesn't play.

How do I modify this code such that any change in the value of A1:A9, no matter the source of that data change, triggers the playing of the sound? ......

NAME Doesn't Stay Attached To The Cell

This is fine as long as the client doesn't add a row above it.

Is there a way to keep the NAME attached to the cell regardless where it is?

If Statement Doesn't Recognize Non-zero Values
I have the following formula with multiple if statements:

IF(N2>0,N2,IF(O2>0,O2,IF(P2>0,P2,IF(Q2>0,Q2,IF(R2>0,R2,IF(S2>0,S2,IF(T2>0,T2)))))))

This formula refers to cells in columns N,O,P,Q,R,S and T. Every cell in columns N,O,P,Q,R,S and T also contains formulas (VLOOKUPs).
My if statement works fine but when it checks cells in column P, for some reason, it doesn’t recognize cells with non-zero values. I can’t figure out why this is happening and how to fix this problem.

VBA Doesn't Recognise Selection

eg: selection.copy gives compile error.

Is there some setting that could have gotten changed or something?

It's happening on multiple computers and we're running Excel 2003 (standard) with SP3.

Array Doesn't Seem To Write Out Results
I have 4000 rows of data with numbers in it (only one column...column C). These numbers are consecutive but these have breaks in between. So I am trying to find out where those breaks are and output those points in a list. So here is a macro that I came up with...but these array doesn't seem to write out results.... can anybody help please?

This macro tries to compare the two adjacent cells and if the difference between the values is greater than 1 then it copies that value in an array and writes that value in a cell in the same sheet.

Sub Macro1()
Dim temp(1, 1000) As Integer
i = 0
previouscell = 0
For Each cell In Range("C:C")
currentcell = cell.Value
abc = previouscell + 1
If currentcell <> abc Then
temp(1, i) = currentcell
i = i + 1
Range("D" & i).Value = temp(1, i)
End If
previouscell = cell.Value

Next cell

Why Doesn't My Variant Array Work
The answer is probably "because I'm stupid", but I really can't get my head around it! I'm playing with variant arrays for the first (and possibly last) time,

The code I have is:

Sub test()
Dim vSheetColours As Variant
Dim iCounter As Integer
vSheetColours = Range("Colours").Interior.ColorIndex
For iCounter = 1 To UBound(vSheetColours, 1)
MsgBox vSheetColours(iCounter, 1)
Next iCounter
End Sub

(Obviously this code doesn't do anything useful - but if I could get it to work, I might have a chance of making my real code work!)

Colours is a range of 8 cells. Each one has some text in, and has a different background colour. I'm trying to store the colours.

If I run this code, I get a runtime error 13 type mismatch, and it highlights
For iCounter = 1 To UBound(vSheetColours, 1)

But if I replace
vSheetColours = Range("Colours").Interior.ColorIndex
with
vSheetColours = Range("Colours").Value

it works fine.

Closing Excel and reopening Workbook1 initiates the Workbook_Open macro. It's as if Excel remembers having previously opened Workbook1 and so it doesn't rerun the Workbook_Open macro the next time you open it.

Scroll Down/Across Worksheet Doesn't Move
I have two basic questions regarding the Excel program/UI

I'm currently using Excel 2000, One annoying thing I find with this version is the way the screen doesn't follow along with my scrolling. ie: when I use the vertical scroll bar on the main window, it only updates once I release... not like a typical window which follows the movements of the scroll curser. Is this typical for later versions?

I would update this program just for this feature alone!

Also, a final question.... Does anyone know if there are any plans to update the handheld (pocket pc) version of Excel? The factory installed program is incredibly limited.

Create Worksheet If It Doesn't Exist
I need to create a worksheet and then populate it with header row containing columns names, and with values starting at row2. Before I do all this I wanted to first create a spreadsheet, I was successful in getting this done by getting a piece of code from this website. But, what if spreadsheet already exists from a previous run, then, in that case I want to clear the contents. Before I get too far ahead, I am unable to escape runtime error 9, array subscript out of range whenever I use any sort of code to check if the sheet exists.

Also, my attempts to circumvent this error by putting in errorhandling is ignored, i.e. I get the standard run-time error message box, but, not what I want the code to do is such an error occurs.

Function wsExists(wksName As String) As Boolean
On Error Resume Next
wsExists = CBool(Len(Worksheets(wksName).Name) > 0)End Function

Private Sub Cmbsummary_Click()

On Error Goto ErrHandler:

'Worksheets("MySheet").Activate

Worksheets.Add(After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)).Name = "MySheet"
