Function That Returns The First Value In An Array
Jan 24, 2007
I am working on a Monthly Vehicle Spread Sheet. One of the outputs I am trying to achieve is an automatic calculation of Mile Per Gallon. To do this, I need to know if there is a function that will return the value of the first entry of a group of cells.
In calculating the miles per gallon, I need to subtract the first gallon amount entry of the total gallons in the month, then divide that number into the difference of the mileage in the month recorded when the vehicles fueled up.

I'm trying unsuccessfully to write a function that looks for a column in a pivot table and returns the entire column as a text string. The function should take a pivot table and a text string as an argument. The text string is the name of one of the columns. The function needs to return the entire column (excluding the header and footer rows) as an array.
In the example I pasted below, the function should take the pivot table (PivotTable1) and a color, say "Red", as arguments, and then return the values in the Red column as a 48x1 single vector array, in the order shown, starting with 43 and ending with 1. I can only post a text version of the spreadsheet; I was not able to post the actual spreadsheet.
Average of Cost
Color
Date
Hour

I don't know if this is vba, because my sheet has no macros in it. I have a reference cell and an array. The array mentions the same value as the reference cell does several times in one column. In the other column, however, are individual values. I would like to find a way so that when you change the reference cell, the values in the "Return Cells" correspond accordingly. See attachment

I suspect the array variables declaration in the following example is the problem.
The array Function MyRoots() incorrectly returns 0.0 results to cells I11:J13.
cell B8::3
cell B9: myTrue
cells B11:C14 numerical values
cells I11:J13:: array function {=MyRoots(B11:C14, B8, B9)}
Function MyRoots (a, m As Integer, polish As String)
ReDim a(m + 1, 2) As Double
ReDim roots(m, 2) As Double
Dim j As Integer, its As Integer
Dim x(2) As Double
ReDim ad(m + 1, 2) As Double
......................................my code............
For j = 1 To m + 1
ad(j, 1) = a(j, 1)
ad(j, 2) = a(j, 2)
Next j
......................................my code............
Call Laguer (ad, j, x, its)
......................................my code............
roots(j, 1) = x(1)
roots(j, 2) = x(2)
......................................my code............
MyRoots = roots
End Function
Sub Laguer (a, m, x, its)
Dim x1(2) As Double
......................................my code.......................................
x(1) = x1(1)
x(2) = x1(2)
......................................my code............
Exit Sub
End Sub

find a formula that would act as a vlookup but would look up and return a value even if it is not on the first position within the array. I have an SAP export that has on Column A the batch number and on column B the item description. The thing is that within the multiple batch number arrays it allocates on column B the item description only for one row and randomly (sometimes first, last or in the middle).

I want a UDF; = OK (f1,f2) each argument being an alternative function. If f1 returns an error message then use f2. Should be easy but I cannot get it to work.

I am looking up a risk matrix to return the risk rating... it is very simple, it works on one sheet, but on a different sheet (looking up different data, but same basic format) it returns exactly the opposite rating.
My formula is: =INDEX($G$6:$K$10,MATCH(I19,$G$5:$K$5,0),MATCH(J19,$F$6:$F$10,0))
Here is F4 to K10
I have data validation on I19 and J19 based on the cells below
Consequence
Priority
Very Low
Low
Medium
High
Very High
[Code] ..........
BUT... when I put Very Low and Very Low in the two cells (I19 and K19) I get Very High as the return.

In column D I have the time of the end of my shift. When I try to input =MIN(1;$D:$D) in column E, i get the same answer (0,625) for any row, while =$D:$D gives correct values. So I guess it has something to do with the MIN function

Have a spreadsheet prepared by someone else on older Excel version exported from database. The sum and count functions work fine both vertically and horizontally, but trying to add selected cells returns #VALUE! Attached is small range of 50-col x 2500 row spreadsheet. Original content is highlighted in yellow. See cell E2. I assume the forumula is seeing number content as text. How do I convert the entire spreadsheet to numbers.

I'm a newbie who has a simple "Area()" function that multiplies two numbers. I copied it off the Net as a programming test. I added to a Module of my Workbook using Tools>Macro>Visual Basic Editor. I put it in "Modules>Module1". Problem is, it doesn't seem to be recognized in my Workbook. When I enter "=Area(A1,A2)" into a cell (without the quotes) I get "#NAME?". What am I doing wrong? Here's the function:

I'm using the following phrase out of a much longer expression to
demonstrate that the return value of the MID function seems to be nothing I
can understand.
This expression:
=MID("6/10x",1,FIND("x","6/10x)-1))
returns 6/10 as text which makes sense. However I was under the impression
that when text in Excel contains numeric characters, it can be interpreted
as a number. So then how does the following expression,
=MID("6/10x",1,FIND("x","6/10x)-1)*1
return the result 38878? Does it still think it's text?

Im trying to do a lookup but when I drag the formula down it returns the wrong values and also returns #N/A or #REF (which I think means it's refering to a wrong range and cant find the data???). How can I do a look up function by dragging the formula down a long column of data eg. 65,000 rows in excel, that returns the correct text. I have attached a simple example- see attached.

i have a very basic function using instr as follows:
ins = 0
Dim x As Integer
Dim y As Integer
findst = "["
finden = "]"
x = InStr(ins, oldstrgFd, findst, vbTextCompare)
y = InStr(ins, oldstrgFd, finden, vbTextCompare)
Debug.Print x,y
oldstrgFd in the example is populated with
[ClientName] Planning Workshop
[FeedbackLocation], [FeedbackDate]
[FeedbackPresenters]
I am expecting this the first positions of the square brackets, but x and y both return 0.

when ltoj is less than zero the following code enters a period in the cell instead of zero.
If ltoj < 0 Then ltoj = 0
Cells(r, 10) = Format(ltoj * 24, "##.##") 'writes data in correct format

Is there a way in which you can create an if function or similar to give a reason for why the cell of data has an error.
Basically i have some data in a table, and when a #num! error pops up id like to in the cell next to it give a sentence stating why this has happened.
E.G.
Cell A1 Cell B1
#Num! Number error due to 'x' being too small
Not sure how i can get this to work, i have tried a basic if function but that hasnt worked.

I am trying to get the week from a given data (from a cell that has been correctly formatted with date). =YEAR works, =MONTH works, =WEEKNUM does not work. I am using Excel 2003 and I have tried in both my workplace and at home...
I.e., I have a date in C2 (18-05-08), and =YEAR(C2) returns 2008, =MONTH(C2) returns 5, while =WEEKNUM(C2) returns #NAME, and =WEEKNUM(C2,2) does not work at all...

Let's say I have data that looks like this grid below. Each color represents a column heading and each number is a data point within that column.
Blue Red Green Yellow
18 27 15 36
56 41 3 22
Can I write a formula that would do the following 2 things with the data in this format:
1. Find the max of the data...simple =Max(...) formula
2. Use the max to return the column heading. In this case the max is 56 so the value I want to return is "Blue"

I have calculated the t values then i have three tables for 3 confidence levels, 0.01, 0.05,0.1 in which I compare the t value with the value from the
t-test table. If the t value is larger it returns a 1, if not a 0. This works fine.
To summarise the information I have a final table which I wish to return the highest significance of the given t value.
I am using this
=IF((G53=1),0.01,(IF(G44=1,0.05,(IF(G35=10,0.05,"none")))))
the problem I have is it always returns 0.01 even if g53=0. If i remove the formula from g53 and replace it with a 0, it returns 0.05 instead (even if g44 is retruning a 0).
I have considered copy paste values and doing this but that rather removes the automation aspect of the spreadsheet if I need to make adjustments.

I've been asked to adjust some thing with a worksheet someone else created. On the sheet labeled "Criteria" there is a list of dates and some formulas that use these dates. I can't figure out why the result of the formula is a number, i.e "0"; I thought it is supposed to return "TRUE" or "FALSE". If I insert a new sheet, within the same workbook, and insert the same formula, I get "TRUE" or "FALSE". For some reason, the "Criteria" worksheet doesn't return "TRUE" or "FALSE", it returns numbers. I just need to know why this is happening so I can replicate it in the new workbook I'm creating.

In the attached file I used =MATCH(TRUE,INDEX($B$2:$B$10="",0)) to retrieve the location of the first empty cell.
When using the "Evaluate Formula" tool, it is clear that the position in the array created by the INDEX function is the 6th. Nevertheless, the final outcome is 9, being the last cell in range.

I have this COUNTIFS expression buried in a larger formula:
COUNTIFS(Table[C7],Table[C7]&"",Table[C21],">=1")
and it always returns a value of zero or some positive integer.
I'm now looking for a little "function" that I can wrap around this expression that will:
A) indicate any non-zero result as 1 or TRUE
and
B) indicate any zero result as 0 or FALSE
Something like...
AREYOUNONZERO( (COUNTIFS(Table[C7],Table[C7]&"",Table[C21],">=1") )
I'm sure there's a fairly efficient way to do this... but I'm totally stumped at the moment!

Is it possible to see why this code returns a date that is almost correct? Searching for 01.01.2005 I get 01.11.2005 as result. I would like the code to only show the correct date, and if it doesn't exist it should end up showing "nothing".
Code:
Set fstdate = wsOBX.Range("B1:B" & lr1).Find(what:=startdate, _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, lookat:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByRows, _
SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:=False)

I am trying to write a UDF that will calculate a value and return it to the cell, and also create a comment in the cell showing the formula used. Here is an example of the "=calculate(A2,B2)" placed in cell A1
Function calculate(ByRef X As Range,ByRef Y As Range)
calculate=x*y
calculate.addcomment "calculate = " & X & " * " & Y
End Function
the problem commes from the add comment field. I can add a comment to any cell but the cell the formula is called from.
