Delete Rows That Contain Data From User Defined Dynamic List Within Workbook
Oct 7, 2012I have a financial dataset which I need to "clean" before manipulating/analysing.
Each row of the data represents a completed transaction and the first step is to delete rows that are done with particular (internal) clients; the client data (the client's name) is in Column D.
Currently, I delete the unwanted data by autofilter and delete (code below), however this means the clients to be deleted are only defined within the code. I would prefer to have a worksheet within the workbook where the user defines the clients by adding or subtracting their name from a list.
I have created a dynamic range for the client list by inserting a Named variable along the lines of "=OFFSET(!$B$3,1,0,COUNTA($B$3:$B$200)-1," which works fine.
However how do I work this list into my code so that it works when new clients are added or deleted?
Current code for deleting unwanted client data:
Sub filterdelete()
Dim LastRow As Long
LastRow = ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count
With Range(Range("D1"), Range("D" & LastRow))
[Code] .....

Using Defined Names In VBA?
Aug 6, 2012Trying to use a Defined Name as the cell reference in VBA. The idea is to change the value of a couple of other cells base on the value of the cell "FreightRow". I am starting with a Message box just to make sure the code was reading the cell reference.
Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim FR As Range
Set FR = ThisWorkbook.Names("FreightRow").RefersTo
If FR = 3 Then
MsgBox ("Help")
End If
End Sub

UDFs And Defined Names
Feb 9, 2009I have a column J that is named Premium. If I use the function =INT(Premium) in K4 then it returns the integer for the value in J4. If I do the same thing with a UDF then the function argument receives all the values in column J. The author of the function says this is how UDFs work by design. Is there a way to use defined names with UDFs and have it work the way it does with built in functions?

Using VBA To Create Defined Names?
Jan 13, 2013Ive created the following code which I want to use to create a name in excel but it doesnt work.
when i put =INDIRECT i get an error and with out the = it places a text string in with speech marks on it e.g. defined name reference in excel reads ="INDIRECT('Health and Safety'!$AP$3)"
How do I get rid of those speech marks? the cell reference will change each time the macro runs and so will the sheet reference.
myC = ActiveCell.Address
Dim strNAME As String
strNAME = "YAXIS" & "_" & "HS" & Chartnumber
strSHEET = ActiveSheet.Name
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets(ActiveSheet.Name).Names.Add Name:=strNAME, _
RefersToR1C1:="INDIRECT('" & strSHEET & "'!" & myC & ")"
Defined Names In Workbooks
Feb 24, 2009I am currently overhauling a massive workbook, that previously relied on an absurd amount of named ranges in order to run vlookups. I no longer need these named ranges and would like to delete them to unclog the workbook. Currently I only see a way to delete them one by one. Is there a way to mass delete all of them?
Defined Names Vs Reference Cells?
Mar 23, 2012I have several SumIf formulas that references a Cell in a Main Reference Tab. This is useful to me as I have over 100 tabs of data points and having a reference cell with that text is easier to change one time vs 100 times.
My question is this: Will Defined Names be "faster" than using a reference cell? With over 100 tabs, there's a lot of formulas and I'm looking for a faster way to get the same output without Excel Memory overload.

Sep 22, 2006This thread is related to this thread. Offset, Match, Max Formula In the Insert - Name - Define window:
If one wants to copy a formula from the "Refers to" box and the formula extends past the right side of the box, how does one use "select all" or mark the whole formula from beginning to end so it can be copied without messing up the formula. At the moment, when I try this, it changes the formula to include the active cell of the worksheet that's open when I use the Ctrl + c etc. I have tried Ctrl + Ins and Ctrl + a and Ctrl + c. None of these are working for me.
Defined Names Not Recognised In Formula
Jun 1, 2007I have a situation where I copy a worksheet to further on in the same workbook (essentially, using it as a template to create new sheets). I have certain cells that contain references to named ranges, e.g. on NewSheet1, cell $A$1 contains =StudyNo. Unfortunately, it shows as #NAME?. But, if I go to the formula bar and press enter, it resolves the name properly. I thougt maybe that automatic calculation was on manual but it is not. Why is this happening and what can I do to resolve it.

Rotate Range, Keep Defined Names Consistent.
Dec 1, 2009as the title says, i need to rotate a range but to keep all defined names (single cell or range) consistent.
i.e.
lets say i have the following cells filled:
1 2 3 4
1 2 3 4
1 2 3 4
1 2 3 4
1 2 3 4
1 2 3 4
1 2 3 4
now i have a few defined ranges. lets say:
range name, refers to
mycell1row1, A1
mycell90roanything, B1
mysomething, C1
mysomthingrange, A1:F1
etc.
what i need in the end is this:
1 1 1 1 1 1 1
2 2 2 2 2 2 2
3 3 3 3 3 3 3
4 4 4 4 4 4 4
and for defined names:
mycell1row1, A1
mycell90roanything, A2
mysomething, A3
mysomthingrange, A1:A7
Chart Data Series Refer To Defined Names
Jan 15, 2014I'm trying to use some defined names to create charts. Though it works at the very begin, some extremely weird things happen when I try to develop further .....
Attached please find the test file, which simplifies my real case but shows the same problem.
Test.xlsx
In the test file, three names are defined as below:
Line1: "=Xvalue*1"
Line2: "=Xvalue*2"
Xvalue: "=ROW(SampleChart!$A$1:$A$25)"
the chart is very sample: "=SERIES(,Test.xlsx!Xvalue,Test.xlsx!Line1,1)"
So far, it works very well. However, I just simply can't add the second line into the chart, for example, "=SERIES(,Test.xlsx!Xvalue,Test.xlsx!Line2,2)"
I canNOT even change "Line1" to "Line2" in the "SERIES" formula!
Create A Formula Which Sums The Values Associated With Several Defined Names
Aug 6, 2007I am looking to create a formula which sums the values associated with several defined names. For example, I have a workbook with the following defined names SalesPerson1Total, SalesPerson2Total, etc. and these amounts are all sourced from multiple tabs. The amount of defined names (i.e. 'SalesPersons') is variable, therefore, I want the formula to read Sum the values of all defined names which are named with the following convention 'SalesPerson(X)Total'.
View 9 Replies View RelatedDefined Names Referring To Nonexistent Range Won't Pick Up Once Existing
Feb 17, 2010I have created 500+ defined names that refer to worksheets that do not exist (yet). When I add the previously nonexistent worksheets, the defined names that refer to them are not "live" and do not work in functions where that name is used. If you go into the defined names and click on the ones that refer to the now existent worksheet, they start to work, but I was hoping there was a way around this step (e.g. a simple macro that says "update all defined names").
I created all the names so that the person who will eventually be using this will only have to add an appropriately named worksheet and put the data in...then everything will automatically work. I do not think adding names is difficult, but the person who will be using this does, so I want to avoid that person mucking around in my names.

Excel 2013 :: Replacing Values In Existing Functions With Newly Defined Names
Jan 6, 2014I'm trying to simplify a spreadsheet i've been given by defining names for certain values. I'm using Excel 2013. Is there any way to have all of the newly defined names I've created for cells automatically be inserted into all of the formulas that exist in the spreadsheet?
Example.
Old formula in one sheet of a workbook looks up a cell in another sheet with the value of ='sheet1!A1
I've given the value of cell A1 in Sheet1 a name of dgwd.
How do I get every formula in the workbook that references 'sheet1!A1 to change the value within that formula to dgwd?

cells to be deleted in columns B C D IF value in A corresponds to the list in Sheet1
Run Macro From Custom Defined Workbook
Jun 12, 2014How can I have a custom defined workbook run a particular macro?
I'm using the Run Application Method:
Application.Run("'Workbook.xls'!Macro")
However the workbook.xls field is static as my program loops through a folder containing various workbooks, opening these workbooks, and running a specific macro housed in their specific module.
Dim MyFile as Object
MyFile = Dir("C:Test")
While MyFile ""
Workbooks.open Filename:="C:Test" & MyFile
Application.Run("'Workbook.xls'!Macro")
MyFile = Dir
How can I define the current active workbook in the run method? Using the custom 'MyFile' in place of the workbook does not work.
Is there a call module method available?
Formula To Accept / Delete Cell If Numbers In Other Cells Meet Defined Criteria
Apr 21, 2014I am looking for a formula that either accepts the number in a cell if the numbers on two other cells are "approved". In other words, I have on cell A1 my value to be tested. On cells A2 and A3 I have two numbers. On cell A4 I'm looking for a formula that copies the number on A1 if A2 is bigger then 0.25 and A3 is smaller then 0.35. In not, there's no copy or a N/A appears.
View 3 Replies View RelatedLocate A Max From Range Defined In Other Sheet In Workbook
Jun 10, 2008in my workbook i have 3 sheets named "time" "final" "push". in the sheet thats named "final" ihave in cells B2 and C2 2 values that correspond to a type interval (lets say 75-378) in the sheet "time" each row represents 1 sec, starting at one.
what i would like to do is locate the interval defined by the 2 values on "final" sheet
and find the min max and value in column S of the "time" sheet.
i.e if B2 and c2 said 78 and 378 it would go on "time" sheet select the range of S78-S378 and find the mean, the max and the average and report them in sheet "final" in cells E2 F2 G2 respectively What would be optimal is that there was a way to perhaps loop so that it can do the same thing with the range defined by the values in B3 and C3.

I then used the name manager to delete hidden names.
Unfortunately some of the names are corrupted...
Name Manager prompts me to change the reference style to R1C1 to rename those corrupted names... but I tried every combination to rename them, but it won't work.......
Here are examples of what I tried (as new names for corrupted names): ...
