Formula Only Returns Values If The Pages Are Open?
Jul 9, 2014
i have a workbook that draws numbers from other workbooks.For some reason every time i close and reopen it the fields are blank.I have to go in and open each workbook for the cells to populate.
I have a macro that pastes formulas as values on specific pages (("CTY EME", "Int Center", " Total SW dist cost", "Int, pubs & oth", "Total". Is there a way to compress the macro ie with the sheet names?
I'm working with a multi-page workbook I use for work scheduling purposes.
This is how Sheet1 is set-up:
A B 1 Name
[Code]....
In the cells in Column D I have used the following formula =IF('Sheet1'!B2="Yes","Holiday",""). What I have realized is that this formula is quite limited. For example not all 12 colleagues work everyday and they work different shifts on different days- each day's data is sorted so that the colleagues are organized primarily by Shift start time and then alphabetically by name- consequently if I used this formula across the entire workbook the Sheet1B2 data may not be consistently referencing the same colleague.
I was wondering if there was a way to amend the formula so that if a colleague is marked as 'Yes' in Sheet1, 'Holiday' could be inserted in Column D in the rows corresponding to where the colleague's name appears?
I'm trying to execute a macro and it won't put the focus (radio button) to select x pages wide by x pages tall in the Page Setup/Page/Scaling Area. I looked at the macro and can't find a setting in the code but yet the focus won't change. What can I do about this? In other words the radio button stays selected as "adjust to "" % of normal size. Here's the code...
I've never quite mastered the idea of passing arguments between subs and functions. I have a project right now where I am writing this same bit of code over and over, for different parts of the macro:
I have a simple code that opens 2 workbooks and then copies and pastes a cell from one to the other. The cell that's being copied is a formula by the way.
My problem is that the copy and paste keeps returning a "0" value, instead of the correct number. I am thinking it's probably because the file from which it is copied is very large and because the operation barely takes a second, it doesn't allow it enough time for the formula int he cell that is being copied to calculate the value.
I'm trying to do the next level of a v-lookup. I have a group of data with a text "flag" on certain rows. On my summary worksheet, I'm trying to do a lookup or a nested index function retrun all of the values with the text flag next to it.
I've been playing around with nested formulas and this is where I'm stuck. Here's what I came up with:
People usually keep track of their own points, however an official would need to confirm that they are correct before approving a purchase. However 99% of the time, people have the incorrect point totals.
I am currently working on a book to automate the system. It means players wouldn't have to keep track of their own points and that the point totals are always up to date. The first sheet in this workbook is a summary page which has player names, points from posting, bonus points, level up costs, purchase costs etc. Then there is a database with all the costs, which I pulled from the site. Then there are numerous record sheets, which have the player name, the item bought/levelup purchased, and the cost, which is pulled from the database via vlookup. Here is where it gets irritating.
On the summary page I attempted to use SUMIF in the total fields (total cost of purchases, total cost of leel ups etc). It would basically search the record for any entries with the name matching that of the player, and add the amounts associated with that entry. However it would always return 0. After doing some playing around I came to the conclusion that whilst the VLookup returns the correct values, functions like sum see them as 0. So instead of it going 5+7+7+10=29, it says 0+0+0+0=0.
i have a list of 100 product codes in row b2:cw2, colum A contains dates in the month, yesterdays first and then each previous day before that going down, and the columns B:CW are the number of each particular product sold on that day.
I'd like to insert a formula in row 1 which will look down each column and count the number of blank cells from B3 to the first cell to contain a value, i.e. the number of days since this particular product was sold.
When I use that function on a UserForm it executes the code immediately, not waiting for the value to be entered. Thus the code executed that relies on the new values returns an incorrect value.
Example
A1 | 150 A2 | 100 <-- this is the value being changed to 300 with the Textbox A3 | 250 = Sum(A1:A2)
I have a code that opens another workbook and looks at some cells and then returns the values. The problem is F20 in the opening document has a countif and gives the value but when it comes back into the main file it has the formula and not the value.
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.
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.
I need a formula that can return the value from a cell in the same row it searches. The row is unsorted and has blank cells. Seacchs row A12:X12 returns the text in C4 (data validation List) in A19 on a different sheet.
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.
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.
I placed this formula in cell A1 in workbook number 2which is suppose to grab what ever name is in cell A4 of workbook 1 However if the cell is blank it is returning a "0"I want it to be blank if there is no name in the cell?
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).
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'm making a macro that filters a data set and then inputs a value into all of the rows for a certain column. When no results show up for the filter I receive a runtime 1004 error because there are no cells to select.
I have a two different formulas the return a numbered result(PO Number) in the same column. I then vlookup both of them with the same formula into a pivot table, one returns the result one doesn't. format appears to be the same.
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.
