Formula Returns #NAME?
Nov 5, 2006
I have always used unique ways to randomly make selections in my life, and was thrilled to learn that Excel could pick a name(not just a number) from a list. I've used the =INDEX($A:$A,RANDBETWEEN(1, COUNTA($A:$A)),1) function and entered items into Column A (or another if needed, and updated by trial and error accordingly). It worked very well for me for a long time and then stopped working. In multiple documents, with multiple lists (not connecting to each other), all of a sudden every random item started giving the #NAME error.

when i use a simple sum it only returns 0 but if I use the same cells and manually add them ie A1+A2+A3 and so on it give me the answer ? As there are over 500 cells it would be a pain to type them.

I have a workbook that is taking the avarage percentage of efficency over a possible of 7 days. If there were only 5 days of production it would average only 5 days. It pulls info from a tab that is call "Datalink" which is just that. As we have started our new fiscal year the person who uses this came to me with this problem
1) GrpIV on C15 is returning # DIV/0! and we need it to return 0. See the attachment.

The results of the formula in cell K36 in the attached spreadsheet returns a value of null. It should be $1,200. Am I blind or have I done something wrong.

How to make vlookup work right? I have tried it once and it worked but I can't get it ot work again.
I changed the format to text for the data I using and the data I looking in to see if that would fix the ref# or N/a error.
Is the formatting one possible issue?
I am slow to vlookup but I used the formula as
1. the lookup value is the serial #
2. the table_array is the entire worksheet that I am searching in - or should I just use the column that hold the values I am looking for?
3. the column_index_num is ??
4. [range_lookup] is FALSE.

I have a formula that looks like this:
=IF(ISERROR((C101/G119)*G104)," ",((C101/G119)*G104))
There are about 15 cells with formulas similar to this. They are calculating a value for a row and at the end all of them should add up should equal C101.
The problem is the value that formula returns has to be two digits and I know it almost never is. But it ALWAYS equils C101. However because it only shows two digits somtimes if you manulally add up the value that you see it does not its off by +/-.01.
I need to fix it so that it does equal C101 AND if you were to add up the digits (with 2 decimal places) it will also equil C101.

For some reason it is returning #VALUE! in some cells. I think its something to do with the last part of the formula where it is bold.
The formula as you can see looks at data and matches relevant data to return specific depending on what has been matched. Now at the end it is matching the correct data and return that value however i want to divide the value by another (another value*4.33).

I need a dynamic formula in A1 that returns min value in column B in a range of the last input and 15 cells back.
Then I need another dynamic formula in B1 that returns max value in column B in the same range.

The formula below was written a couple of years ago and I just discovered an error. It returns an "S" for the value 0789 when it should be a "C", (Consecutive).

I created a table for a check register. Column D is the transaction amount and column I is the updated balance. Column D has no formulas. It is where I enter the transaction amount. I checked all entries and even re-typed them. I extended the decimals out to the maximum and they are all. $$.CC000000000etc - no fractions of pennies. However the Subtotal 109 formula at the bottom of the table computes the answer with fractions of pennies even though there are no entries with fractions of pennies. And at row 118 in column I it also starts computing it as fractions of a penny.
Column I has a formula. Row 1 of course is titles. The second row is my begining balance with this formula: +"Table Name"[[#This Row],[Amount]] In other words what is in Column D row 2 as my first transaction, the beginning balance. The rest of the column has this formula +I(row above)+$D(that row) so in column 3 it is +I2+$D3 and so forth down the rest of the table. It had read +I2+"Table Name"[[#This Row],[Amount]] but I changed it to $D because I thought that might fix the error. It didn't
Columns D and I are the only ones with dollar amounts and really any numbers, except for the dates in column B. E is the envelope, F is the category, and G is the transaction status (cleared, pending, etc.). They have drop down boxes. Column H is notes. It is formatted as text. In the transaction amount column (D) I enter debits as negative numbers and credits as positive. e.g., a check written for $20 is -20.00 and a deposit of $20 is 20.00. Column I, my balance does not have any negative numbers. -fortunately-
The problem is minor and I could work around it. However it impacts my formula which tells me that I "balance." It will not return the value "Balanced" as it is computing a variance between my bank balance+uncleared items being equal to my CR balance by a fraction of a penny.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong with this formula in Excel 2003. I figured out how to do it in Excel 2007 using the SUMIFS statement, but alas Excel 2003 won't take a SUMIFS statement.
I have data in a column, J of Worksheet B that I need to add based on 2 conditions. The first conditions are in cells AJ6 to 8 on Worksheet A. The second condition must be matched from Column A of Worksheet B to the same condition in Column F on Worksheet A.

I'm using the formula below to count the distinct number of values in the range, many values are repeated so this formula only counts each one once, it works sometimes. For some reason I get a #Div/0 error once in a while.
The entire range might not always have a value, when I get the error if I add text to the remaining cells of the range the error is cleared.
I do not want to use a If (iserr(myformula),0,myformula)) because there are still values that need to be counted even if the range is not totally populated.
=SUMPRODUCT((B16:B1500"")/COUNTIF(B16:B1500,B16:B1500&""))

column "A1" i have a set date in the format of year / month / day (2007/01/01)
i want to extract from that information the "Month" in Text form e.g from cell A1... cell B1 = January.
i tried "=month(a1)" then custom set the cell to "mmmm" but this seems to display a random month which doesnt co-inside to cell A1.
i require this information to feed a pivot table i am working on and wondered if anybody could help.
just a side note... after this i would be looking for a formula to work out (based upon the month) which Quarter it falls under... then the week (1-5) based on the date within cell "A1" to feed the results for the pivot table. though this is some way off going by my current plight.

I have a VLOOKUP formula in a cell that refers to another cell that has a formula in it.
When I type the actual numerical result (rather than the formula) in the formula cell, the vlookup works. When the formula (that equals the same number) is in there, the vlookup cell is returning #n/a.

I'm trying to sum cells in a column that meet the following criteria: If the first character of the cell = "V" then sum the last two characters in the same cell. I.e., if A4 = "V12" and A6 = "V10", then I need the formula to return the total 22. All other cells, whether blank or starting with a different letter need to be ignored. My attempts have failed, including this last one that returns a #VALUE error.
=SUMPRODUCT(LEFT(A1:A10,1)="V")*(MID(A1:A10,2,2))

I have a sheet connected to external SQLSERVER data.
One of the columns includes a formula, but the formula is not evaluated but shown as text.
My challenge is making it evaluate (without using excel tricks like replace equal sign with equal sign or clicking each cell and approve it)
I tried going down the road of concatenating char(10) or char(13) to the formula string but no success.
