How Do I Copy Formulas And Automatically Change Reference Cells
Oct 18, 2008
I have a 2 columns (A and B) next to each other that is using a Sum formula and other multiplying formulas. They reference 3 cells in a different column (C) to come up up with the answer for A and B. Therefore A1 and B1 reference C1 C2 and C3 (and possibly if want to use in future column D with D1 D2 D3).
Then in A2 and B2 I want to reference from C4, C5, C6
Then in A3 and A4 I want to reference from C7, C78, C9 etc.... and so on...
Instead of retyping formulas for each row in A and B, I want to copy down, but I getting the wrong answer when I do that.
I am therefore assuming I typing the formula wrong. How do I type it correctly so the cell reference changes automatically when I pull down columns A and B?
Formula for Column A: =SUM($G28:$G30)
Forumla for Column B: =($G28*$H28+$G29*$H29+$G30*$H30)/$B17
Therefore next row should be referenced from G31 to G33 and H31 to H33
But when I copy it only adjusts it for 1 reference down.
I am using excel 2007 and when I change cells my formulas do not automatically refresh. I have set it to automatic and the calculations will not refresh. How I can force a calculation. I did the control alt f9 and nothing seems to work. Any macro that can force all calculations.
I'm preparing an accounting model for my office use. How to solve the copying of formula to all other cells.
The detail is here:
Sheet 1: 1) I've entered a number 1000 in L2
Sheet 2: 1) I've entered a values in columns D,E,F,G 2) Calculations : at G2 : the formula is =D2*Sheet1!L2
The problem is when I Copy the formula in G2 through G3, G4, G5........... it changes to =D3*Sheet1!L3, =D4*ValidData!L4, =D5*ValidData!L5 and so on... but it should be =D3*Sheet1!L2, =D4*ValidData!L2, =D5*ValidData!L2, so that the L2 value shall be constant for calculations in all cells.
I have a worksheet, where i type in the id of a member and its uses vlookup to search that member, i enter all the other data required. I am designing a library system and need to record a loan. I have code off another thread that "Copy Cell On Each Change To Next Blank Cell In Column" The problem with this is that when i implement it in my system i change the id cell and that changes the member but when i changes the ranges in the code it doesn't recognise a change has been made, because of vloookup. Current code i have got for the page is
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Target.Address <> "$D$3" Then Exit Sub Application.EnableEvents = False Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Value = Target.Value Application.EnableEvents = True End Sub
I need a macro to do this small task for me. Preferably it should execute when I have selected a cell and press a command button. Here's the way it should work:
This may be an easy answer, but I haven't been able to figure it out. I have a cumulative page of formulas that reads "SHEET1!B8+SHEET!B9". I need the next row formula to reference "SHEET1!B47+SHEET1!B48", and then "SHEET1!B86+SHEET1!B87". Each row the formula moves 39 rows on sheet 1. Is there a way to get excel to automatically do this, so I don't have to go line by line?
What i want to do is to change "D" to "E". Next time i run it, it will change from "E" to "G".
I want a macro to do it, so that I don't have to change it manually one by one. For some reason, when i try to use .formulaR1C1, the reference change, and I couldn't get it to work.
I have a dynamic range that is 19 columns wide with the height defined by the last filled cell in Column B.
Columns A, O, P, Q, and R contain formulas that need to be autofilled every time a new record is added to the list (i.e. a new row is added to the range) - this seems like it should be so simple, but I can't seem to find out how to do it?
Some extra details in case they are needed -
- Column B will always contain data for every row that I need A, O, P, Q and R to have their respective formulas copied into
- I'd like the formulas to appear as soon as the data goes into Column B - regardless of what else is entered into the row
- Multiple identical records will sometimes be entered at the same time (i.e. by highlighting multiple rows and using Ctrl-Enter) - I need the formulas to autofill all of the affected rows.
I am copy/pasting a new column of data (F). I have three formulas MIN,AVE,MAX watching each row in the columns "=MIN(B2:E2)" or example. When I insert the new column F, the formulas give me the "Formula Omits Adjacent Cell" warning. I don't want to turn off the warning; I want to know if there is a way for the formulas to automatically include the new data? Do I need a Worksheet Event for this?
I want to make an excel workbook for a client. What I want to do with it is make a set of instructions telling them to add or insert as many rows in specific categories I have made for them. These options differ depending on the different duties performed. There will be an associated number (value for that duty, ex. duty might be Janitor and the number would be like 5 dollars per hour, so on and so forth), I want to make it to where there is a code that notices more rows and adds more IF statements or whatever statements are needed to keep adding those extra options. These values are connected to a data validation list that drives the if statement.
I am using below formula to make cell link i m using below formula in column C
I want to copy this formula to range("C4:C2000"), now I want after 43 row ( in cell C47 =(=INDIRECT("V5")) change the V4 to V5 and cell C90 = (=INDIRECT("V6")) cell C133 = (=INDIRECT("V7")).......and continue till C2000,,, i mean after 43 rows it change the V4 ot v5, v6, v7, v8, v9.......
I am copying the entire contents of a worksheet onto a blank worksheet multiple times. The problem occurs with the charts which need updating once copied to reference the new worksheet name. I have tried stepping through each chart and then each SeriesCollection but it seems to fall over part way through.
I am looking for the best way to change the font of cells in a Worksheet that contain a formula. I have used Go To-Special-Formulas but have one slight problem with this method. It highlights all cells that contain an "=" sign. Some cells may be linked (ie cell A2 may say =cell A1). How would I change the font only for cells with a Function such as Sum or Vlookup and not for cells that simply link to another cell?
I have an excel workbook that has many spreadsheets (each one sheet has a client name)I have another excel workbook that has these client names on one sheet (on a list) and next to every name I have a number (i.e total turnover of the year).
In the first workbook (where every client has his sheet (tab named after the client) I want to have a cell that equals to the sum of some cells on the other workbook, that refer to the specific client
(it looks like this ='[comissions NF 10-14.xls]comissions 14(auto)'!$J$81+'[comissions NF 10-14.xls]comissions 14(auto)'!$J$197+'[comissions NF 10-14.xls]comissions 14(auto)'!$J$313+'[comissions NF 10-14.xls]comissions 14(auto)'!$J$429)
I want this sum to be added to every sheet of this workbook. each sheet refers to a client, so $J$81, $J$197 etc must be changed for the correct cell that refers to the name of the client. The tab names are alphabetical and so s the list.
Is there any way to do it, without re-entering the formula to each one?
I want to automate the following steps when cell A8:A11 changes in sheet "InfoAA":
(1) clear contents and formats of cells A1:A4 in sheet "InfoBB" (2) copy cells A8:A11 of sheet "InfoAA" (which are formulas) and past it as text in cells A1:A4 of sheet "InfoBB". (3) then automatically run a recorded macro named "BoldFirstName"
I have been given a spreadsheet that turns whole rows different colours when certain data is entered into a cell. I want to locate the code and use it elsewhere, but cant find it?
I have looked at all of the change related procedures in the drop downs, for the Workbook e.g.
Workbook_SheetChange
but no matter where I cant seem to find any code at all.
Is there a way of exporting every line of code and then open this file in notepad to skim through it?
how I might find the code that is making the rows turn different colours?
I'm dealing with forecasting invoices. The main column 'BALANCE' has a formula referencing the previous cell and then adding or subtracting invoices (ENTRY). The problem I have is that I'll put values in ENTRY that I expect to come in at some point but as they arrive I need to change the order of the cells. So I'm constantly changing the order and then it changes the formula in BALANCE. I tried absolute cells (and even found a work around way to flow absolute cells by flowing then viewing formulas then using the replace function but that didn't work.
So my formula in BALANCE is: =$I$173+$E$174-$G$174
but if I move G174 to another cell I'd like to keep the BALANCE formula to stay G174 instead of following the move.
So I'm dragging my formula down one cell and as expected the reference cell changes the same amount when I really want the reference to shift Down that column 11 cell so when I take my formula
I created one worksheet called: Assumptions. In this worksheet I have 6 different columns representing 6 different cases.
I have completed the first case in a different worksheet called: WL. I would like to copy this case/worksheet WL and be able to change all the reference cells used in case#1: WL to case#2: FA. So all the cells used in my Assumptions worksheet were in the B columns for case 1: WL, for case 2: FA they will all be in the C column, same row, different column.
Any quick way to do the changes?
My case #1 worksheet as over 10 000 formulas, I really don't want to change each and every formula.
I was thinking there was a way to highlight ALL the reference cells used in my Assumption worksheet, so I would have had to drag from B to C cells, only 50 cells. But I can't find it.
I'm trying to create financial statements on a sheet with quarterly and annual data. Is it possible to create like a button to change inputs on a cell
Income Statement for Abercrombie Fitch Company Class A ANF from Morningstar.com (2).jpgIncome Statement for Abercrombie Fitch Company Class A ANF from Morningstar.com2 (2).jpg
whats the best way to insert a button like in the jpg example
I am looking to have the Cells that I have applied a Dropdown List to update with the changes that I make to the list itself.
Example:
If I were to validate a list with a range of a1:a3 using "Bob" "Sarah" "Bill" and then apply that list to B:B and randomly select from the three names running the length of B:B, I would want that when I go back to A2 and change "Sarah" to "Linda" that every "Sarah" that I have selected using the drop down will update to say "Linda"
I hope that I am explaining myself clearly and in a simple context.
With that said, I want to put the row number of a user in (I have a few thousand on this spreadsheet, and all the = data be automatically pulled based on the row number I put in cell B1. So I'm hoping to write in cell B1 the following - "143" (without the quotes), and the remaining cells in column B automatically pull that data based on that, so it would look like the following
Row # 143 Name: =C143&" , "&D143&" "&E143
[Code]....
How do I write the functions to keep the columns the same, but change the row number based on the number I input?
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.
Example: I renamed cell A1 to Apple, A2 to Banana, A3 to Chair. Down in cell a50 I was using simple formulas a1+a2*a3. then copying the formula into column b50, c50,... Now when I use the formula SUM(Apple+Banana*Chair) and try to copy it into cell b50, It doesnt change the formula to SUM(B1+B2*B3).
I am currently working on a data analysis project (data mining) and need to collect and later analyze statistics for the inputs which control a series of calculations. These statistics are shown in the Statistics 1, Statistics 2 and Statistics 3 cells in the workbook that I attached. The inputs are X,Y; all possible values for these inputs are listed in the N,O columns. Basically I need a macro which would take the values from these two columns and place them pair after pair into the controlling cells (K3, L3), then it would copy cells H2 through L3 (updated stats) to a new sheet after each copy operation - so that I will finally have a list of statistics for all of the input pairs.
I have Book1 (reference workbook) and Book2 (where i copy values from Book1)
Now I have macro to fetch the datas and paste the values in the format below.
But I can only doing this for one reference workbooks. But i need to add more reference workbooks in a file and paste to Book2. (etc: Book1, Book3, Book4, ....... to Book2)
Book2 looks like:
A1 B1 C1 D1 Name Adress Age Sex Ozan xxxxxx 27 M
Here' s the Code.
Option Explicit Sub TransferData() Dim wkb As Workbook, wks As Worksheet, LastRow As Long Dim FilePath As String, FileName As String Dim ws As Worksheet, blnOpened As Boolean 'Change these variables as desired...
I am creating a spreadsheet which creates a bulk of data from a front sheet.
The question is: Is there a way to automatically copy a fixed formula for 100 cells using one fixed cell reference such as $A$1 and then automatically after 100 cells replace $A$1 with $A$2, after another 100 with $A$3 and so on?
Explanation with Example:
For example, Sheet1 contains the words "Green Tree" in Cell A1 and Sheet2 will then place "Green Tree" into 100 different sentences such as:
Plant a Green Tree Grow a Green Tree today
This would be created with the formula ="Grow a "&'Sheet1'!$A$1& " today"
After 100 different variations using the formula I want to change that formula to reference cell A2 on Sheet1.
I know if I place "Red Tree" in Cell A2 and use the formula ="Grow a "&'Sheet1'!$A$2& " today" I can do this manually using find and replace for the 100 cells, but I want to do this for 100 different variations of Green Tree to create a 10,000 different sentences so I'd need to find and replace 100 times!
