Formulas Won't Calculate. Just Displaying As Formulas
Dec 11, 2008
I have formulas in a column and they are working unless I edit them to include another function, more cells, whatever, then they display as formulas instead of the result. I've gone to Tools --> Options --> View and the Formulas box is not checked. As well automatic calculation is on not manual.

I am using a lot of linked reports that have to be rewritten each month. For example smaller formulas look like this:
=('S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$228*2)+'S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$262+'S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$292
What I want to do is extract the file path from the above formula and make it a composite of several cell references.
So what I need is to have a cell where they can change the month and another where we can change the year. So I set up several named cells that look like this:
_MONTH =11 November
_YEAR =2013
_JOBCARD ='S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING
_PATH =_JOBCARD & _YEAR &"" &_MONTH
I tried several versions, I am hoping for something like this:
=('_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$228*2)+'_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$262+'_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$292

I've found a few macros that will automate changing cell references from absolute to relative and they work great. However, when I run the macros on formulas that have references to another worksheet or workbook, the macro will not work correctly.

I'm trying to automate creating certain keyword combinations I need, based off of the values I input into reference cells in columns A - E; the goal is to compile a list of keywords which I will then use to track my rankings in search engines.
I'm looking to only output 500 keywords, so some of the cells in columns A, B, C & E will not contain data (column D will always have a primary Geo-target listed). This results in some of the concatenate formulas I've created outputting partial data (i.e. if there is no data in cell A10, and cell D2 contains the word "Knoxville", then cell I10 will output the data, "Knoxville "). How can I setup conditioning formatting or a formula so that these auto-generated cells appear blank if one of the reference cells has no data within it?The reason why I need the above to work is because I want to setup a formula that automatically counts the # of keyword combinations created by the data entered into any of the reference cells. With the partial combinations being listed, it skews my data. Which leads me to my next question: what is the best formula for counting the # of cells containing a full keyword combination from any of the cells listed in columns G - O (minus the data in the header cells; i.e. G1, H1, etc...)?Lastly, is there a formula I could use that would then aggregate all of the full keyword combinations within the "Complete Keyword List" column (column P)?

I've got a report that I churn out every month that calculates total spend, average daily spend, median, number of people etc and as well as that I have to calculate formulas based on the top 20% and bottom 80% of the data. The attached sheet shows the number of people under different business areas, and costs in descending order.
At the moment I do it manually so I filter for each business area and work out the top 20% of people in range and then work out the number of employees, mean, median and SUM of the top 20% and bottom 80%. Below I have 20 people and I take the top 20% which is 4 and then I work out the Total number of people, SUM and median of the top 20 and I do the same for the bottom 80.
EXAMPLE:
TOP 20%
£1,330.00
£1,070.36
£997.50
£840.00
Employees - 4
SUM - £4,237.86
Median - £1,033.93............................

To start, have 1 sheet with approx 25 columns of data and i need one column to check 3 others + another sheet to complete its fields.
In column M i need to enter some prices from another worksheet (tag name 'prices') but these prices depend on whats completed in the fields in columns L, T & V.
Column L has fields completed with eg. Houses, Offices, Warehouses
Column T has some fields completed with eg. B1, D, E (these are just zonal refs)
Column V has some fields completed with numbers 1,2,3
Prices worksheet has 4 columns
A = Property (same heading and fields completed as Column L on first worksheet)
B = Standard Price (this has prices in fields that correspond to the properties in A above)
C = Cresta Price (same description as above)
D = Wind Price (same description as above)
I need column M (blank fields) to look at L (heading 'property') then add in Standard Price from B (worksheet prices) then check to see if any fields are completed in Columns T & V and if they are then it needs to addon the prices from either columns C or D from Prices worksheet.

I am a little lost on this, and have tried to remedy my issue by searches to no avail. I have a cell formula that references another cell:
Cell A1 (=A3) where Cell A3 = 1
Cell A1 displays the text "=A3" and not the value of 1. Autocalc is on, and the worsheet and workbook is unprotected.

I am running Excel 2007 on Windows Vista Business 32 bit. Recently I have noticed that if I enter a formula into an empty, unsused cell, it is recognized as a formula. If I modify that formula, it is then recognized as text and does not work as a formula. The only way I can get the cell to recognize a formula is to delete the cell and start over. This same scenario does not occur on previously stored workbooks. I have checked all of the flags that I know about, including the Options function.

I have a macro running this code to strip out unwanted formulas and formatting.
Sub Quote_Wrapup()
'To stop screen flicker
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Range("CDandC").ClearContents

Range("Item_Nos").SpecialCells(xlCellTypeBlanks).EntireRow.Delete
Columns("A:E") = Columns("A:E").Value .........................
A spreadsheet based on my template has been sent to me because the macro won't run properly. When I try to run the macro I get a Runtime Error '1004' Method 'Range' of object '_Global' failed on the following line. Columns("A:E") = Columns("A:E").Value.

I am thinking that I must have something set up wrong some place, but have not done anything that should have changed my formulas
Its not that they are gone but just are not auto calculating.
I tried just a basic sample invoice and the figures do not calculate without manual calclation

I need to calculate the amount of time my daughter will be in daycare which varies each week. I have to give the same sheet that I have hidden calculations on to the center. I have to have the time she arrives at 7:15 AM (Cell A1) however they don't start to bill until 7:45 AM (Cell A2) and continues until 11:30 AM (Cell B1) and need C1 to be total hours between A2 and B1
I need a formula that will calculate the hours between 7:45 AM to 11:30 ONLY if cell A1 has a time entered in it. If A1 is blank then it should calculate 0 hours.
Example (WITH something entered in A1)
Arrive Time End Billable Time Total Billable Time
A1 - 7:15 am to B1 - 11:30 am C1 - 3.75 Hours
Start Billable Time
A2 7:45 am
Example (WITHOUT something entered in A1)
Arrive Time End Billable Time Total Billable Time
A1 - to B1 - 11:30 am C1 - 0.00 Hours
Start Billable Time
A2 7:45 am
If it has to be in 24 hour time is there a formula that I can enter in another cell to convert 12 hour time to 24 hour time again ONLY if A1 has something entered in it?

I am using =COUNTIF formulas to calculate different conditions. such as, calculating how much of one product do we have and how much is is received under 30 days. i want to combine those formulas in one cell to calculate two conditions in different columns.
1-So first i found out the date difference. I used =DATEDIF(Sheet1!C10,Sheet1!E10,"d")
2-Then I found out how many of one type do we carry, using the =COUNTIF.
=COUNTIF(Sheet1!J2:J3810,"DAZ")
3-That was easy, But now i have to sepereate them into 30 or less, 60 days or less, 90 days or less.
Then i used =COUNTIF(D2:D3810,"

I would like to ask the formulas for this... for example:
$35 .. discount 10% + 25%
instead of having so many cells to calculate $40 x (100%-10%) = $36
$36 x (100% - 25%) = $27

I got a workbook that is linked to many external workbooks and it is very slow to calculate, so I work it with manual calculation and only calculate the sheet (SHIFT+F9) when necessary. To work with this workbook I need to be able to make faster manual calculations. I have tried many solutions and the only one that seems to work, is to work without the links to the other files (by breaking the links and turning the formulas to values). The problem with this solution is that I can't lose the formulas. I think that must be a way to calculate the sheet without calculating the cells that got a reference to the external files. Only the formulas in the current sheet.

I am looking for ideas on how to speed-up one workbook. I have a spreadsheet with hundreds of lookup formulas and array formulas which are very slow to recalculate (takes around 5 min). Good thing about it is that these formulas are located in a specific range and that I need to run them only once a day (in the morning). Since I need to refresh the rest of the spreadsheet frequently, I am looking for an idea on how to isolate this resource heavy areas.
One solution I've been thinking about is moving these complex and slow formulas to VBA and run them only when needed. Can anybody assist me with the best and easiest way of doing this. Ideally I would want to leave option to the user to later edit this formula. Does anybody have any experience with weather it is best to migrate complete formulas to VBA or maybe leave formulas in the spreadsheet and run them based on predefined flag (that I can switch on or off from the code)?

I have the same question as described in Graphs Not Updating When Source Data Updated; however, the poster did not reply to the request-for-clarification questions.
My chart does not always update when my source data changes. My Calculations setting is Automatic (not Manual). There is no macro code working to produce the source data or the chart. My chart is on the same worksheet as my source data. The source data is simple links to other cells in the same workbook that update as the underlying data is updated. Saving doesn't work. Manually calculating (F9) doesn't work. The only way I have found to get the correct data to display in the charts is to open the Source Data and re-enter the Series range. Obviously, that gets old.

I I have a excel document which has a sheet containing a large number of array formulas.
I turned the automatic calculation off.
However, even when I press F9 to calculate the cells it just crunches, gets stuck at “Calculating 0%” and then crashes.
The majority of the array formulas are IF queries with multiple criteria.
Would it speed up the calculation if I didn’t use array formulas?

I have a requirements to capture the data and calculate the qty based on the defined work week. How to to this in vba macro or a formulas. I'll giving a sample data as reference. In my sample data i have already the formulas
but i wanted to automate the work week calculation specially if the number of days in a month has been change.
Btw, the values of every column is came from other worksheet. i copy paste this data as my sample.
For ex : Today is July and it has 31 days, the 31 days will be distributed to the defined workweek and calculate the contents of the corresponding column.
here is the distribution of columns per week as reference.
(31 days)
wk1 - Day1 to Day8 (8 colums)
wk2 - Day9 to Day16 (8 colums)
wk3 - Day17 to Day24 (8)
wk4 - Day25 to day 31 (7) columns

I am working on word documents that has financial numbers on them. I am copying word pages to excel to calculate the numbers by using formulas and etc. I will cut to the chase; is there a way or a macro to insert into an excel template workbook(.xltx) when we open the template there will be a command button to select the word document (which we want to copy its pages) to excel sheets. When a new page begins a new sheet will be created and the page will be pasted on the new sheet.
It is not important if it has to have a command button to select the word document it is ok to run the macro and select the word document and it does not has to populate sheets according to length of word document (I can create lost of free sheets on the template)
The main idea is to gain the time I spend on copying the word document to excel sheets. Some documents can be very long (100 pages). I am using MS Office 2007.
I triend to export data but excel does not allow me to select word documents.

I have a spreadhseet with various functions on it and what I am trying to do is this.
Cell E4 returns a >35 or <35 true or false value
Cell G4 is either blank or has "Yes" text type into it.
What I am trying to do is get cell F4 to return certain arguments.
E4 = >35 and G4 is blank I want it to state "Email Hiring Manager"
E4 = ,35 and G4 is blank I want it to state "Wait"
I have a basic IF formula that returns this
=IF(E4>35,"Email Hiring Manager","Wait")
Then if cell G4 is populated with a Yes the formula needs to overwirte the origonal if with the return arguments of
=IF(G4="Yes","Email Agency","Email Hiring Manager")
If yes then what would be Email Hiring Manager (yes will only be input if E4 is greater than 35) will be overwritten with "Email Agency"
Can this be done with two If formulas or does there need to be 3 or more to count if other IF formulas are actually returning a value?

I have a Template which is used to import log data, calculate and displaying the results in several charts. Then all sheets are copied to a new workbook, a Save As dialog apears for the new workbook and the template will close. This is all done with VBA and it works fine.
Problem:
The Worksheets with the Charts on it refer to the data-source at the template file.
Strange because the copied worksheets have the same names as the originals.
(when Opens: This Workbook contains Links to other Workbooks...)
Question:
How can I establish that the Charts will point to their own data sources in the same Workbook rather then linking to the Template file on a Server.

I have a sheet of data which is refreshed eash day, the data has frequencies and values in it. I need the code to say:
if column E:E = Monthly, and column M:M = Annually then divide the value in column N:N by 12
If column E:E = Monthly, and column M:M = Quarterly then divide value in column N:N by 4
We have these four freqencies:
Monthly
Quarterly
Half Yearly
Annually
and the above code will need apply to all scenarios i.e. if E:E = Quarterly and M:M = Monthly then x N:N by 3.
E:E being the origonal frequency and M:M being the new one, we need to know the value of the new gift at the old frequency.
