Formula Referencing Previous Sheet

Jun 29, 2009

After a formula to copy the contents of a cell in the previous sheet in a workbook, so that if I was to copy the last sheet in a workbook the formula would automatically reference the cell from the copied worksheet and so on if I copied tht one.

Hope this makes sense I have a lot of formulas referencing the previous sheet and everytime I copy this sheet to create a new sheet I have to change the sheet number in the formulas.

eg, in sheet 8 this formula get info from sheet 7 cel J30 ='7'!J30 when i copy the sheet to create a new one (Sheet 9) I would like the new formula to automatically be ='8'!J30.

Update Sheet From Previous Sheet

Feb 9, 2009

what im hoping to do is when i press macro button"click to sort" on sheet totals

it will automatically input the totals from "TOTALS" underneath the right name and put the date in column a the trouble is the cells are dependant on the sort so if i was to press "click to sort" now it would transfer this data to sheet "PTS AND DATES"

09/02/09 in cell a2
1146 in b2
861 in c2
860 in d2
849 in e2
806 in f2

the very next time i press it , it will put data into row 3.

Refer To Previous Sheet

Nov 24, 2009

I've got a workbook that increments in sheets for each new week. I have a cell showing the current week number for that sheet ( lets say cell C1) and any formulas that need to reference data from the previous sheet do in 'indirect' function which basically looks at the current week number ( lets say week 20)in cell C1 and minus's 1 to navigate to the previous week (week 19).

I was wondering if there was a way to reference the previous sheet purely by the order they're in.

So say i have 5 sheets named "1,4,5,8,9" and these represent week numbers so the sheet named '8' in cell C1 would have '8' standanding for the week number but cells that wanted to reference the previous sheet couldn't do the 'indirect' C1-1 as there is no 'week 7'.

The weeks used could vary alot so a formula to reference the directly previous sheet is needed.

ok, thought best if i show you the actual formula

=IF(ISBLANK(C12),"",IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(C12,INDIRECT("'"&($AG$2-1)&"'!$C:$AG"),28,FALSE)),G12,SUM(G12,VLOOKUP(C12,INDIRECT("'"&($AG$2-1)&"'!$C:$AG"),28,FALSE))))

the '$A$G2-1' part is the bit that redirects to the previous sheet based on it's name, what i think i really need is to replace this part with a 'PrevSheet' function but i'm unsure how.

Reference Previous Sheet

Oct 5, 2005

I've found on this newsgroup a function to get the previous sheet
name

Function PrevSheet()
On Error GoTo EndFunction
Application.Volatile True
PrevSheet = Application.Caller.Worksheet.Previous.Name
Exit Function
EndFunction:
With Application.Caller.Parent.Parent.Worksheets
PrevSheet = .Item(.Count).Name
End With
End Function

when i put =PrevSheet() i get the previous sheets name

What i want to be able to do is use this in place of directly
referencing the sheet name in my code as follows...
=IF(G4-J4<0,G4-J4,G4-J4)+'Week 1'!H4
So i want to be able to replace Week 1 with PrevSheet but i've tried
and falied on this. eg...

=IF(G4-J4<0,G4-J4,G4-J4)+PrevSheet()!H4
Could someone show me the correct syntax for this.

Goto Previous Sheet

Apr 3, 2007

I am writing a macro that goes from one sheet to another sheet to copy data but then must return to the 1st sheet to paste it.

Is there a command for returning to a previous sheet.

Note that the sheets may not necessarily be in consecutive order ie. the 2nd sht may not be immediately after the 1st sheet in the sheet tab order.

The spreadsheet will be made up of a number of sheets that can use the same macro to reference a master sheet to copy and return data.

Select Previous Sheet Macro

May 1, 2013

Below is a macro I'm trying to create. The basically it's supposed to be a quick simple macro to save lots of time. I want to select current tab, move/copy (create copy) to the end....then select the tab I've just copied and copy paste special the values (then rename the tab to todays date) FYI the tab I'm copying is called rebuy shipping.

However, I want to then do the same at a later date with the most recent tab, but with the below code it always selects and copies the original tab:

Sub macrorebuy1()
'
' macrorebuy1 Macro
'
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+k
'
Sheets("Rebuy Shipping").Select

[Code] .....

I assume this is a simple error. I've tried inserting Activesheet.previous.

Cell Reference To Previous Sheet?

Jan 13, 2011

We have a sizeable Excel workbook that contains many worksheets for various things, everything works smoothly except for one minor niggle.

I am looking for a formula that references to a cell on a previous worksheet, the worksheet could be named anything (eg A1, B, 2, 3.4, etc). Then to add 1, ideally the first worksheet inserted must equal, say, 0 BUT can reference the sheet previous as this is a constant; so something along the lines of...

Cell A1 =magic formula
Cell A2 =A1+1

This is to get a vlookup to work consistently.

OR another option is, for the worksheet to reference an already populated worksheet and read down a table by adding one to reference the cells. Eg first sheet reads ='schedule'!A13, the next sheet added would read A14 then A15 etc...

OR a worksheet (like page numbers) count into a cell onto each worksheet inserted, eg on worksheet 6 in cell A1 the number 6 would be inserted then worksheet 7 would have 7 inserted into A1 etc..

Macro For Next & Previous Sheet Selection

Sep 6, 2007

I have created a toolbar that has "Previous Worksheet" and "Next Worksheet" buttons on it with the following macros assigned:

Sub NextSheet()
On Error Resume Next
If ActiveSheet. Name = "Problem Listing" Then
MsgBox "This is the last worksheet."
Else
ActiveSheet.Next.Select
End If
End Sub

Sub PreviousSheet()
On Error Resume Next
If ActiveSheet.Index = 1 Then
MsgBox "This is the first worksheet."
Else
ActiveSheet.Previous.Select
End If
End Sub

This seems really simple but the code crashes after 4 or 5 repeated clicks of the button.

Vba Sheet Referencing

Apr 12, 2007

I have 8 sheets, named cpt1 to cpt8 in vba.

Now i need to loop through these 8 sheets, storing the same range of each sheet into a matrix. I have the following

dim test () as variant

For i = 1 to 8
(1) test = sheets(i).Range("b2:u21")
(2) test = cpt1.Range("b2:u21")
next i

Now (1) doesn't work, but (2) does. However i do not know how to reference the cpt1 sheet name using the for loop (ie "cpt" & i) Can anyone help me with getting this to work?

Save Previous Cell Value In The Corresponding Row Of Different Column In Same Sheet

Apr 4, 2014

I found some VBA code that saves the previous value entered into a cell and displays it as a comment. I've attached that workbook as an example, but I want to change 3 things.

1) I only want to capture the previous values from Sheet1.Column1 (you'll see the example captures changes on the whole sheet1).
2) I want to 'paste' the previous value of Sheet1.Column1 in the corresponding row of Sheet1.ColumnD (i.e. the previous value of A5 will be displayed in D5). The code currently pastes the value in the corresponding address in sheet2.
3) I do not need the comments part. Simply displaying the previous value in the corresponding row of Sheet1.ColumnD is good enough.

VBA For Insert Previous Month In Sheet Name On Open

Feb 28, 2007

I'd like to make a template so that when it is opened the previous month name is inserted in the sheet name. The reason I want to use previous month is that normally this report is created in the month following the month being reported. So it is opened, months are updated, then the user saves as xls. Ideally I guess sheet would not have the month on the template.

The name of the sheets are shortened months like "Dec Results Bob" and there are 8 of these.

I can tell it might start:

Private Sub Workbook_Open() (or would .xlt be the same?)

but that's about it. I made a macro of renaming sheet but that didn't really tell me if I could insert the Month there.

Referencing Table On Another Sheet

Jun 26, 2014

I have a spreadsheet with two sheets in it.

Sheet 1 = sheet with formulas/functions for data analysis
Sheet 2 = sheet with table

I am trying to reference a column in the table on sheet 2 from sheet 1. Specifically, I am trying to set up Data Validation that will create a list of unique values from a column in the table. I tried:

[Code] ......

There is a space in the header name of the column. but I was unable to get the validation to work even with columns that have just a single word name.

I also tried:

[Code] .....

and that did not work either.

Referencing Cells In Another Sheet

Oct 4, 2009

I need assistance referencing cells in other sheets. I have a summary tab which I would have each refenced sheet listed (named for the activity being billed). In a separate cell in the summary tab, I want to bring back the value of the total amount billed for that activity. The total value is in the same cell of each sheet, as all invoice tabs needing to be referenced are identical in layout.

There is one hitch to this, the sheets referenced have not yet been created (that would be too too easy), and the activity list in the summary sheet has place holder names that will change when the activity being billed is defined (hence prompting the biller to create the sheet to be referenced).

Referencing List In Different Sheet

Jan 31, 2014

I am trying to reference a list of numbers in a sheet from another sheet. the problem is that whenever i try to copy and paste the formula it doesn't go to the next number in the ist it goes to the corresponding row. i.e. ='number'!H2 is in row 1 when copied down to row 32 i need it to become ='number'!H3 but instead it becomes ='number'!H33. I also need it to go across; however that was solved by making it ='number'!$H2 but i still cant figure out how to progress the row 1 at a time.

Is there a way to use the "value" of a name in a drop-down list to reference a sheet tab name in a formula?

Referencing Another Sheet In Same Workbook

Apr 17, 2009

I have two sheets in the same work book and I want to pull values through from one to the other. So its a simple =Sheet2!B45 or whatever yeah?

But no! What Excel 2007 does when I hit enter is to swap the Sheet!2 bit for "C:documents and Settingsmy documentsspreadsheetsmyworkbook!Sheet2!B45" or some such.

Why the hell does it do that and how can I stop it.
