I will like to ask, if there is a way to get in a cell the result of a simple equation without having to copy the contents of that cell with a = in front for example if i have in one cell
I have two cells (c1 and c2). c1 contains (2+3*4)*3 without "=" at start. c2 must contain the result of c1 it means 42. I think it has a very simple sulution but I don't know it. In the attached file I have a few variants I tried to solve it but they both don't fit.
Lets say I write an equation on my sheet such as: ='A1'!$H422*AH$138
but instead of hard coding the A1 sheet name, I want that to be a value that I can put in a different cell (lets say cell C1) on my same sheet in such a way that it will reference the value in my other cell (Cell C1) and put its value into that equation.
So if I make the value in C1 = A99 then the equation becomes ='A99'!$H422*AH$138
I am attempting to create a ROI calculator for my place of work. I want a blank cell to fill in green or red based a cell below it being equal or greater than 5.0%. What is the Macro or equation to do that?
When I drag my VLOOKUP formula down a column in Excel 2010, the return value copies the formula result from the original VLOOKUP formula result. For example, if the first VLOOKUP returns a value of 0.5, I expect to see 0.5 or 1 in the cell below that one. However, I get 0.5 which is not the expected result for the cell below.
When, I click the fx on the cells below, the expected return values appear in the formula result. After I click OK, the expected formula results updates and now appears in the cell.
I'm not sure what is causing this issue. My computer was updated recently from an old machine to a new one. I have never experienced this issue before.
I am trying to type in a basic equation in a single cell (343.56 + 46.78) and I want it to be solved in another cell. Can this be done? Can I put this function in a cell where the cell it is trying to solve is not yet put in?
How do I get to see the equation behind Excel Functions? For instance, the result of pmt() is not making sense to me, I'd like to see what this function is doing and how it is calculating its value. Trial and Error is rather time-consuming and tedious.
i am plotting graphs which i need the equation of the line from. i have been manually typing the x^3, X^2, X^1 and X^0 values into 4 cells which is then used elsewhere, but wanted to know if its possible to get some code to do that for me?
Below is a nonlinear model, together with calibration data for which I would like to find the parameters Ro, Kc, a and b.
R = Ro + Kc * (1/(1 + exp(-(a + b*lnC))
Calibration Data
C R 0.00.3347 4.80.4201 7.70.5141 11.20.6177 14.40.6887
Given the calibration data above, how can I calculate or at least estimate these parameters? I do not want to use an add-in program, like Solver, in Excel. I do, however, want to be able to use any existing functions, if necessary, in Excel. i'd appreciate it if someone can walk me through the steps.
The equation is basically: 10^[A/20]+10^[B/20]+10^[C/20]. Now imagine that there is no input value for C. I need to make it so that it won't add the bit I've highlighted in green.
How to add an equation to a drop down selection if you take a look at the picture in the link supplied, what I want to do is: I want the calculator to take the number in D12 then if the drop down box under it the selection is (as it is) too high then subtract 50 (k11) from D12 and display the answer in D14. I have listed the 3 drop down choices in column L, Lap 2 I would do exactly the same and so on [URL] .........
I am trying to calculate the equation of a curve which best fits some data. On the x-axis is date and y-axis the readings. The curve is quadratic, so on the chart I am fitting a 2nd order polyomial and displaying the equation. To prove that the equation the trendline gives me is reasonable, I am applying the equation on the x parameter to get the y parameter estimate and looking to see the error between predicted and actual - see attached.
The equation and the output from it are clearly rubbish, even though on the graph the trendline is a reasonable fit - see attached. Has anyone any ideas why? I think it has something to do with using a date on the x-axis but no idea why. Is there a way to correct for this? I also tried using the following I to calculate the coefficients which came up with a reasonable forecast (although linest should only be used for linear data): =LINEST(C3:C15,B3:B15^{1,2,3})
I'm familiar with 2d graphs, trendlines, and regression equations. Now I have some tabular data that has 2 input variables and a result. As with my 2d data, I would like Excel to create a polynomial equation of z from the x and y inputs. Can Excel do this, or do I need a plug-in or another software package?
Any way I can get an equation to only apply to cells with information in? E.g. I have two columns, one with 'disposal dates' in and the other with 'extended disposal dates'. I would like to get the difference between them (Extended disposal dates- disposal dates) however not all of them have an extended disposal date, therefore some cells display as '#VALUE!' because its calculating the disposal date-blank cell....
I want to do is a simple list, 2 items, call them "Thing_1" and "Thing_2". I have an equation in a column of cells. The equation is a simple If statement. If the user selects "Thing_1" then the first equation will run, and if "Thing_2" is selected then the second equation will be used. That's it. No more complex than that.
My original questions about how to initialize a ComboBox are cross-posted here: http://www.excelforum.com/excel-prog...ml#post1996135
What I would like to do is use a drop down list Type 1, Type 2, Type 3 etc and then be able to use whatever is selected to reference a value in another cell.
Excuse my ignorance but something like Cell 1 * (If Type 1 from the list is selected use figure in Cell 3, If Type 2 from the list is selected use figure in Cell 4..........) etc etc
