I have a spreadsheet with a number of different formulae on it. I have a macro which I want to extract which cells are referenced in the formula in the active cell and then branch based on the which cell is referenced.
Is there a way to find the referenced cells without parsing the formula string?
Here is the scenario:
A B C D
BananasApplesOrangesTotal113=A1+B1+C1
I need to reference the formula in D1 with the cells headers names.
In a perfect world, it would take
=A1+B1+C1:
and produce:
=Bananas+Apples+Oranges
My problem is that when i used the forumla = SUM(Q11:AW11) to add up the range of cells it dosnt do it. It only added up 2 of the numbers in the range of cells. And missed out everything else. This forumla is being used to add up all the volunteer hours for volunteers for each month and for all the other months the formula worked fine but now its just being a pain.

There are four sheets (labeled A,B,C)
Depending on the contents in cells in Columns A and B (which have 1000+ rows), I want to change the background color of a referenced cell elsewhere:
For each row (lets say from 2-1000)
1. If "A" cell is blank -- referenced cell (address in columns C & D) should be colorless -- (as in Row 2 --- cell Z5 in Sheet "C" should be colorless)
2. If "A" cell has text AND "B" cell is blank, reference cell should be colored BLUE -- (as in Row 3 --- Cell F3 in Sheet "C" should be BLUE)
3. If both "A" and "B" cells have text, reference cell should be colored YELLOW -- (as in Row 4 --- Cell C5 in Sheet "B" should be YELLOW)
While I could do this with a conditional format in every referenced cell, it would take too long to enter them.
Here is a google doc of my issue: [url]
An Excel sheet is also attached.
I believe you have permissions to edit.
In H1:H4 I have 4 different functions. When the user specifies which function to use in E1 (add, subtract, multiply, or divide), I would like C1:C4 to evaluate the values in Columns A & B.
My problem is that the formula only uses the values in A1 and B1. When I copy the formula down the column, it still evaluates for the values in A1 and B1, not in A2 and B2, A3 and B3, etc...
I have a vlaue referenced from a sheet 2, and I need to put this value (Same value) in a cell, say O3,and then O4, O5... six times counting from O3. i.e O3=150, O4=150, O5=150....
150 is coming fr4om "Worksheets("Interest Calculations").Range("F4")"
For x = 1 To 6
Range("O3").Value = Worksheets("Interest Calculations").Range("F4")
Next x
I have attached a sample workbook which shows what I am trying to extract from sheet "Service Reminders 2014". In worksheet "Results" cells b11:e11 I am trying to extract the amount of vehicles with within age ranges provided that have a magic number attached which is pretty easy everything >0 is a proper magic number and also the amount of vehicles in each age range that have "Booked" associated within the range of "Service Reminders" Y2:AH5000, The formula works fine until I add the final criteria and then it give me a #VALUE!

PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE THIS TABLE IMAGE ON SAME PAGE! OTHEWISE, ERROR OF JavaScript OCCUR.
The problem is when the score is i.e. 12-3 the formula is only looking at 2-3. Hence this actually then shows as a defeat. The formula causing this problen is an array and shown as
=SUM(IF(NOT(ISERROR(LEFT(resultsHome,FIND("-",resultsHome)-1))),
--(LEFT(Results!$B3:$K3,FIND("-",Results!$B3:$K3)-1)>MID(Results!$B3:$K3,FIND("-",Results!$B3:$K3)+1,9))))

I have an IF formula on one worksheet that refers to another worksheet (ex: =IF(Page1!$A13="";"";Page1!$A13). The problem is when I move data from one cell to another the formula becomes #REF. (ex: =IF(Page1!#REF="";"";Page1!#REF)).
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to do is sort cells which are referenced by names in the name box when a button is clicked. All the coding is in VBA.
If a cell is sorted by a macro, I would like the referenced name to move with it on the spreadsheet.
For example if the referenced name box for C5 is Bob and Andrew is the referenced name box in C6, when a button is clicked I would like the Andrew reference to move to C5 and Bob to move to C6. This is sorting in alphabetical order. However, I would like the referenced names to stay the same. Referenced Name refers to the cell name box.
Is there a way to do this in VBA?
I am trying to reference a date in a formula that points to a sheet name.
See Below.
A B

How can I automate the date to pull from column A and place that value in the date for column B? Column B is the name of a different sheet in the workbook.
I'm trying to create a list that references an existing data set where I have staff listed month by month and based on today's date, imports only if there is data in that column. I have figured out how to check if the cell is blank or not, but what I want to do now is change the cell that is referenced in the formula based on the date. Here is the format of the spreadsheet I'm working with:
A
B
C

In this case, the "Team 1" and "Team 2" and "Team 3" references what team they are on that month. If it is blank, they aren't with the company any longer. The formula I am using is intended to import this data elsewhere, and is formatted like this:
=IF(ISBLANK(B2), "", A2) - My understanding is that this checks to see if B2 has data, and if it does, it inputs the employee name (A3) in that cell.
My ultimate goal is to be able to change the column referenced after the "isblank" calculation based on the date. So if today is April 2013, I want it to check B2, but if it's December 2013, I want the formula to check J2. Is there a way to do this? I don't mind if it's two steps (like if I have to put the date somewhere in the spreadsheet in order to run the calculation), but ultimately it would be the type of thing I could do that would leverage the existing data set so that I don't have to maintain two different spreadsheets of information.
I am after an automatic formula or function which calculates values for long lists instead of me dragging down the formula all the way to the end of the document.
Hence, I have a long list of data in columns A, B&C and I want the formula in column D to automatically be calculated all the way down when the list stops.
I'm making a vba macro that takes a workbook and splits and saves it as individual sheets. In this process I need to find all the referenced cells (ie =E5) and change them to their text or numeric value. A few things I've found on the form and tired with no success:
Selection is a column selected from the top to the last used cell (I know there is only 4 columns that have references)
VB:
Selection.Copy
Selection.PasteSpecial Paste = xlPasteValues
Also tried:
VB:
ActiveSheet.UsedRange = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Value
I feel like one of these should be working. But even after the paste the values are still references.
Edit: An afterthought, if I were to select the whole sheet and do a copy/special paste would it replace all formula cells with their calculated value?
Very simply, if A1=B1 and B1=A1 - how do I trick excel into displaying a blank cell for the purpose of printing pages?
Further information:
I am working on an evidence log, it's just a spreadsheet with columns for collection info; all of the information put into the log on one sheet, is referenced on a second sheet where the info is arranged in a printable grid to make sample tags.
For some ungodly reason, I have been instructed to make all of the references circular, so that anyone with a particularly masochistic streak can log their information on the tag to populate the log and vice verse
This results in my log and tags each having 0 values displayed in all of the cells, which I didn't think was a problem, until it was pointed out to me that people may want to print out sheets and use them to take notes in field, making blanking the cells my ultimate goal.
Referenced cells returning zeros: can these be made blank or string data?
But why I still get the value 0 instead of blank cell when I press ctrl+shift+enter?
My formula = IF(U15="Bank", PROPER(E15),"")

Trying to get a problem solved to have a % discount & 'flat' $ discount apply to cell(s) referenced. Product A, B & C are available in 3 different materials. Objective is to allow each material's Max Discount column to apply discount(s) referenced in cell J3 & K3, but only in the order of applying the percentage discount BEFORE the 'flat' $ discount.
Formula in cell C3 works IF the cell "Range to apply discount" I3 = "B3". Works just fine if I allow only one cell to be displayed in I3, but ideally, I'd want this to allow the said discount(s) in cell J3 & K3 to apply to any cells mentioned (for instance, for Product A Material 1, Product B Material 2).
I had tried a drop-down menu using Data Validation, which in my actual project allows me to select ONE cell at a time (out of my list of options), which is okay, but it would be extra useful to have a checkbox option to select which ones to apply the same discount to, instead of creating a massive embedded IF function to have each product in each material find whether it's cell is referenced in 20 different places (if I just copy the already functioning single cell reference tool).
The scale in which I'd like to use this in would be to apply specific discounts for one product, but a different discount for another product or material, and allow the input cell I3 to include a checkbox drop-down option (like the filter/sort), but not remove the data in the table (Range A2:G5 in this example), so I can hide any unnecessary columns and print, showing certain products & materials having a 10% discount, while others having a 20% discount, with an additional $5 off, etc.

I have tried numerous versions of macros I found. Most get the same error of; Range object error or script error.
Here is the formula: VLOOKUP(C$13,VESSELS_DATA,ROW(30:30)-12)
What I would like to do:
1) double click to on the cell with the formula
2) goto the worksheet "DATA_TABLES" that contains the Named Range "VESSELS_DATA"
3) go down the rows until the c13 is matched
4) offset column the same as in the above formula "Row(30:30)-12"
I have 2 tables, 1 beneath the other - table 1 columns represent date ranges and their values. Columns and their data are alternating color coding. Table 2 references, by means of array formula, this data - IS it possible to include the font color as a result?

I have a summary worksheet consisting of columns that are referenced to other sheets within the same workbook.
If the cell in the 'referring' (original) sheet is blank then the forumula returns a zero instead of a blank in my summary worksheet, which is messing up some other calculations.
Is there a way to make these cells truly blank, or possibly into string variables instead, so that they do not interfere with my calculations?
In my worksheet there are ranges A3:C37, E3:E37, J3:K37 and P3:P37 that all contain text that I would like to automatically change to proper case once the user leaves any of the referenced cells.
I have tried various codes form this forum and searched for hours on the net for a solution to do this but no matter what I do/try nothing works (for long)
Another forum user did help me out with some code but there was an issue with column C, L & O (which are set as drop down lists) and when the code was put into the workbook these columns stopped working and froze the app.
I am working on a spreadsheet for work, and have managed to do everything I need to so far but I need to colour specific letter strings, certain colours within a range of cells (each letter string will only appear once on each sheet)
The strings I will be looking for vary depending on data entered so I will need to cell reference them
The strings that need colouring are in cells with other strings that must stay black (They cannot be separated from other strings due to the nature of the grid)
I need some strings red, some green, and some blue.
These changes should also apply to the whole workbook not just one sheet.
Is there a way to do this with the VBA code.
I'm trying to do a formula that references a cell and returns a different result dependant on the number in the cell being referenced.
For example I've said if A1 has a 3 in it then put the word TEST as the result, plus if it has a 4 put the word RESULT.
What I wrote as my formula is as follows-
=IF(A1=3,"TEST")+IF(A1=4,"RESULT")
It works fine when I only use one result but goes wrong when I add two. If I change the words I want to show to numbers it comes up fine but with words it just returns a Value error.
how to find out blank cells and also I want to delete the blank cells.

I need to create a cell reference which will allow me to specify a cell in a table by value (using indirect) and pull the value from a cell immediately one row over for use in a formula. Say I have a table Containing column A and B; I want to reference the value of a cell in column A (e.g. "Large Widget") and receive (in the formula) the value in column B (e.g. "41 cm^2").

I have a worksheet with several thousand rows. During a month new entries are added at the bottom of the previous entries. One of the columns for each entry is a stock symbol and I've written a macro to enable going quickly to any specific stock symbol's location by searching for the symbol.
Once a month I select rows for some of the new entries for a given symbol, cut the relevant rows, activate the macro to find the location of other entries of the same symbol, and then "Insert Cut Cells" so as to move the new rows to the same area as other similar older entries.
What I was finding was that activating the macro was causing a recalculation of the workbook, which delays the macro from finding the symbol in question. This was getting bothersome, so I avoided the delay by adding an Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual to the beginning of the macro, and at the end of the macro I reset the Calculation back to Automatic.
This eliminates the delay, in finding the old symbol, but it also clears out whatever memory location was storing the cut cells, so that I don't have the "Insert Cut Cells" option available once I get to the found location.
So, currently I have either: A) a quick find of the symbol, but I can't use the "Insert Cut Cells" feature, or B) I have a delay in the finding, but am able to Insert.
how I can have the quick find of the macro but still retain the ability to Insert the cut cells ?
I have no VBA knowledge but need to write a macro to look at each worksheet in a workbook , search for a cell with " Total" text, then format the cell upper and to the right as underline.
I tried to record "find" but nothing happened. Is there some existing code I could adapt?
