The Sort Reference Is Not Valid - Run Time Error

Oct 13, 2008

I used the vba recorder to get the code and didn't change one thing, and now I am getting an error when i click on the command button to execute the code.

error

Run time error 1004
The sort reference is not valid. Make sure that it's within the data you want to sort, and the first Sort By Box isn't the same or blank.


Row 1 = column headings

row 2 is the first set of data, *****, however, most of the data in the column is blank. There are only 2 options, (Yes) or blank, and I am trying to sort the sheet so all the (Yes) appear at the top

when i did the macro recorder, it seemed to work.

Pre-Checking Valid Sheet Names In Hyperlink

Jan 18, 2012

I have the following macro, which is assigned to ctrl+shift+h to allow users to make a list and to insert hyperlinks to other sheets that have more details than the list can show:

Code:
Sub linker()
Dim strDocument As String
Dim strSheet As String
Dim strAddress As String
Dim strLink As String

[Code] .......

I was surprised to see that even if the contents of the active cell is not a valid sheet name in the target document, the link is still inserted without error. If the link is subsequently clicked, the target document will open and an "invalid reference" error box will appear.

Is there any way to check whether the contents of the cell constitutes a valid sheet name in the target workbook at the point at which the hyperlink is created, without opening up the target document?

Relative Cell Reference In Hyperlink Formula

Sep 30, 2013

I have a list of University courses listed in Sheet1. Column A contains a unique course code. If there is a problem with a course, a second worksheet (called Anomalies) contains the same unique course code with description of the problem(s).

What I'm trying to do is: in Sheet 1, create a hyperlink to the relative cell in Sheet 2 that shows the course code and description. I've gotten close, but am not sure how I can do this without having to update two formulas. In short, I can't find a way to combine the two formulas.

What I've done is the following: in Sheet 1, column B, created a HYPERLINK formula, thus: =HYPERLINK("#"&CELL("address",INDIRECT(C54)),A54)

Column C contains a formula to lookup the relative position in the Anomalies worksheet, which can be referenced back to the HYPERLINK formula, thus:
=("Anomalies!A"&MATCH(A54,Anomalies!A:A,0))

Sheet1 is fairly static, but Sheet2 (Anomalies) is being updated all the time. I could just hide column C and then column B will update based on that, but I'd prefer a cleaner solution.

I've tried joining the two formulas, by replacing the INDIRECT part with the second formula, as per the following: HYPERLINK("#"&CELL("address","Anomalies!A"&MATCH(A54,Anomalies!A:A,0)),A54)
but I get an error.

Excel 2007 :: Reference Is Not Valid?

Jun 29, 2013

I am using EXCEL 2007. When I refresh the individual pivot tables, I don't get any error. But when I click on Refresh all Pivot, I get a Reference if not valid error. The source for my pivot is referencing to another workbook. Why is there this error and how can I resolve it?

Not A Valid Add-in Error

Aug 7, 2007

I created an add-in for Excel 2003 by following your site's instructions, substituting my own subroutine's name for "MyGreatMacro" (for the purposes on testing all it does is spit out a MsgBox). I then put the resulting xla file on a network drive and went through the standard process for installing an Addin :

Tools -> Addins -> Browse for the file and hit ok, check it off, etc

This works perfectly fine when i try to install on my own machine, but when I try on other user's machines I get an error message stating that the xla file is not a valid Addin. Excel's error message in this case is about as unhelpful as they come.

PivotTable Error: Field Name Is Not Valid.

Jan 27, 2009

I successfully created two PivotTables two days ago, but when I added more rows of data to the source worksheet I could not refresh either PivotTable view. So after much frustration, I deleted both worksheets and again tried to create a new PivotTable using the wizard. I keep getting this error, and have no idea what it is telling me so that I can go about fixing it:

"The PivotTable field name is not valid. To create a PivotTable report, you must use data that is organized as a list with labeled columns. If you are changing the name of a PivotTable field, you must type a new name for the field."

Syntax Error In VBA Relative Reference Formula

Jan 7, 2014

I was able to get VBA to post this relative reference, which sticks the formula

=DATE(YEAR($D2),MONTH($D2)+6, DAY($D2)+1) into a cell in Col J.

All fine and dandy, works as it should with this formula.

Code:
.Cells(Row, "J").FormulaR1C1 = "=DATE(YEAR(RC4),MONTH(RC4)+6, DAY(RC4)+1)"

However, when I try this with a different formula =IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(C2,H2)),"REPEAT","SAFE"), I'm getting a compile error: Expected end of statement with this code:

Code:
.Cells(Row, "I").FormulaR1C1 = "=IF(ISNUMBER(SEARCH(RC3,RC8)),"REPEAT","SAFE")"

The error message highlights the word REPEAT. I suppose it's something with all the quotes throwing off where compiler thinks the end of the formula should be.

Hyperlink Address From Hyperlink Formula/Function

Oct 17, 2006

I am having a slight problem copying hyperlinks. I have written some code that sorts data by date and then creates a simple diary. It originally placed the name of the event in the new diary sheet. What I would like to do is instead of copying the name into this new sheet copy a hyperlink that I have created to the company's website for that event.

I can create the hyperlink using hyperlink(B1,A1) where A1 is the company name and B1 is the web address but since the new sheet will not have the underlying data I need to actually copy the values and format of the hyperlink rather than the formula.

Use Cell Value As Reference In Hyperlink

Jun 17, 2014

I have a small issue with hyperlink :

https://.../Search/QuickLink.aspx?n=A123-BCD-E-FGH-I456_JK789_0-12345&t=3&d=Main%5ceBProd&sc=Global&r=A12&cno=E_SOURCE&m=l

A123-BCD-E-FGH-I456_JK789_0-12345 - needs to be B2 cell value
A12 - needs to be C2 cell value

when I drag the function down, it has to pick B and C valued according to row. I am missing a mistake somewhere.

I last tried this function and it didn't work.

=IF($B2<>"",HYPERLINK("https://.../Search/QuickLink.aspx?n="$B2"&t=3&d=Main%5ceBProd&sc=Global&r="$C2"&cno=E_SOURCE&m=l","Open"),"")

IF / AND Formula Syntax - Display Valid Or Invalid

Sep 25, 2012

I have two columns with values, and want to display "Valid" or "Invalid" in a third column, dependant on the two preceeding values.

If both column 1 and column 2 contain #N/A, then I want the third column to display "Invalid".

If the above is not true, then I want the third column to display "Valid".

I've been trying different syntax with IF/AND but cannot achieve the result.

Reference A Directory When Creating A Hyperlink?

Oct 19, 2009

Is there a way to generically reference a directory when creating a hyperlink? By this I mean, I have an XLS that documents the flow of a process. As an outcome of this process, text files are generated.

This process may be run multiple times. I would like to be able to create multiple directories: Run1, Run2, Run3, ...

I would like to put a copy of the XLS in each directory. I would like to put the output files from each run into their respective directory.

I would like to put hyperlinks in the XLS that point to the flat files. However, when I add a hyperlink it contains the full directory path. Something like C:MyDocumentsRun1output1.txt.

So, if I copy the XLS into directory Run2, the hyperlink is still going to point to a data file in directory Run1.

How can I generically default to look in the 'current' directory for a file? Or is there a different/better way around this? ............

How Do I Automatically Hyperlink To The Reference In A Cell

Jan 16, 2009

I want to be able to create a hyperlink in a cell that is the result of a simple reference formula. i.e. if cell A1 on worksheet A is a formula "='SheetB"!A1", can I create a hyperlink automatically from SheetA Cell A1 to 'SheetB'!A1?

I would like for the hyperlink to be is cell A1, so I beleive that would be a macro / VBA solution.

Also, is there a formula solution that could go in B1 "=hyperlink(A1)", where the formula will then recognize the referenced cell (rather that the formula result) and hyperlink to SheetB:A1?

Excel 2010 :: Pivot Table Reference Is Not Valid When Moving Data And Pivot Table Together?

Mar 19, 2013

On a worksheet, I created:

- a list of data
- a pivottable based on these data

When moving this worksheet this worksheet to another workbook, the pivot table can't refresh anymore. This throws an error message "Reference is not valid". To work around this problem I need to adapt the datasource. The same occurs if the list and the pivot table are on separate sheet, with the added strange behaviour that, when data an PT are split, it is not possible to move both sheet together.

This would not be a big issue if my problem had to be solved manually. The real problem is that I need to move the sheets from a C# program.
