IF, AND, OR - Returns Incorrect Value

Apr 29, 2009

I am having problems with the following formular in that it does not return what I am expecting.

I have 2 columns of data that hold Y/N values and I would like either "Yes" or "No" to be displayed in Col C for the 4 possible combinations that the interaction of Y and N in columns A&B give.

The data is
Col A:A = Y or N
Col B:B =Y or N

The four possible combinations and outcomes are:
Col A = Y & Col B = Y outcome in Col C = "Yes"
Col A = N & Col B = Y outcome in Col C = "Yes"

Col A = N & Col B = N outcome in Col C = "No"
Col A = Y & Col B = N outcome in Col C = "No"

The formular I have tried is:
=IF(OR(AND(A1="Y",B1="Y"),A1="N",B1="Y"),"Yes","No")

However while three of the outcomes for the combinations are correct (N/Y, Y/N, Y/Y), the output for the N/N combination is incorrect and returns "Yes" instead of "No".

Just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to what is wrong with this?

VLOOKUP Returns A Incorrect Match

Aug 30, 2007

In the attached spreadsheet I'm using VLOOKUP to create a cross reference between worksheets JS and ITEM. If you will look at the ITEM worksheet cell reference H13 & H14. The correct value for H13 should be AMC, not 729. Is there a way to use the value in the Class column and Item ID column in combination to get the value AMC? Would MATCH & INDEX work? I'm not familiar with Match & Index. I'd appreciate some help here. I've got 15,404 records to evaluate this way.

I have created a table in excel, and it has a very simple sum totals. When i include all cells in the table the total becomes 0. When I exclude a cell in the table, the total shows.

VBA _Change() Command; New Values Returns An Incorrect Value

Mar 28, 2009

When I use that function on a UserForm it executes the code immediately, not waiting for the value to be entered. Thus the code executed that relies on the new values returns an incorrect value.

Example

A1 | 150
A2 | 100 <-- this is the value being changed to 300 with the Textbox
A3 | 250 = Sum(A1:A2)

Formula Returns Incorrect Results When Copied

Aug 4, 2006

My goal is to sum up the total sales and total forecasted sales of each cost center. I compiled a formula that is supposed to do this just as I want it to. Simple enough. However, for some odd reason the formula returns either the totals of ALL cost centers or just a zero instead of the correct result. The weird part is that when I check the formula by pressing the "insert formula" button it suggests that the formula actually should produce the desired result.

VLOOKUP Returning Incorrect Value

Nov 28, 2012

I've created a spreadsheet to 'translate' number/letter combinations (sub-levels in the UK education system) into a numerical value. I looked up how to do this on google and, through a bit of trial and error, worked out that the lookuptable has to be in alphabetical order, etc.

My problem is when I enter in any of the 'P' values (see attached), it returns 0.5.

Incorrect Scoping Of Variable?

Mar 1, 2012

I have two pieces of code in module 1 and module 2 respectively:

This code is meant to find the first row number that has a string value of "" in column A:

HTML Code:
Sub Macro1()
Dim cell As Range
Dim r As Double
Dim p As String
For Each cell In Worksheets("stock in").Range("stockcode")
p = cell.Value
r = cell.Row
If p = "" Then Exit For Else
Next cell
End Sub

BTW column A will contain formulas that evaluate to "" so I assume cell.value will = "" even if it contains a formula?

In the second module a sort is executed on the range based on the number of rows:

HTML Code:
Sub Macro2()
'
' Macro2 Macro
'
Call Macro1

ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Stock in").Sort.SortFields.Clear
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Stock in").Sort.SortFields.Add Key:=Range("A4:A" & r) _
, SortOn:=xlSortOnValues, Order:=xlAscending, DataOption:=xlSortNormal

[Code] .......

My code is falling down because I think my variables arent scoped right or my code is in the wrong place. Also macro1 will eventually be executed from a button on a different sheet (I dont know if this will matter).

The whole point of this code is to get around the fact that if you perform A - Z sorts on cells that contain formulas those that evaluate to "" will be at the top leaving lots of blank rows before actual visible data.

Incorrect Result Of IF Statement

Jun 27, 2012

I have a line of code that compares cell values with a variable.

Code:
dim rmycell as range
If rmycell.value = MyTarget then

This works fine when rmycell.value is empty or has a value. However, sometimes rmycell has a #VALUE! Error. When debugging the code I can see this error showing rymcell with a value of "Error 2015". The MyTarget variable is "abcdefg", so the If statement should resolve as

Code:
If rmycell.value = MyTarget then
becomes
Code:
If Error 2015 = "Abcdefg" then

Which should be a negative result. Except it isn't. The code that is conditional on a positive result runs whenever there is a #VALUE error, just as if the 2 values were equal.

VBA Function - Incorrect Syntax

Aug 22, 2007

I'm trying to create a new function in Excel and for some reason the syntax is incorrect and it won't let me use it in the sheet. I do not know what I'm doing wrong so any help would be appreciated. This function will allow me to interpolate the term structure of interest rates between dates (I think) My code is

Function INTSPOT(spots, year)
'Interpolates spot rates to year
Dim i As Integer, spotnum As Integer
spotnum = spots.Rows.Count
If Application.WorksheetFunction.Count(spots) = 1 Then
'Single rate given
INTSPOT = spots
Else 'Term structure given
If year = spots(spotnum, 1) Then
INTSPOT = spots(spotnum, 2)
Else
Do
i = i + 1
Loop Until spots(i, 1) > year
INTSPOT = spots(i - 1, 2) + (spots(i, 2) - spots(i - 1, 2)) * _
(year - spots(i - 1, 1)) / _
(spots(i, 1) - spots(i - 1, 1))
End If
End If

End Function

Incorrect 'Last Cell' In Worksheet

Aug 26, 2006

CTRL/END key combination should goto and select the last cell in a Worksheet. So for a Worksheet using Rows 1-4135 and Columns A-Z it should indicate Z4135 as the last cell
My current worksheet uses these Rows and Columns, but CTRL/END indicates last cell as being AB4506. (Inflated by 371 Rows and 2 Columns)

Deleting the unwanted Rows or Columns, or "Clearing contents" of them does not affect the result given by CTRL/END which still shows AB4506.

How can I adjust/correct the last cell indication?

Usual work-around is to select the wanted portion of the worksheet and copy it to a new blank worksheet, but is there an easier way?

Incorrect Optionbutton Value On Initialize

Oct 3, 2006

I have a userform on which there is a frame containing 8 option boxes. After a query, the results are displayed in the form. If I have a value of 1 in a cell, optionbox1 is checked; a value of 2 checks optionbox2, etc. It works great EXCEPT when first initialized. At that point, it checks the last optionbox, even if the number is 1. I have built a next and previous feature to scan the data, and when I return to the first entry, the correct box is checked. I tried coding blanks into the fields prior to populating them, but I still get the same results. Is there some explanation available so that I may remedy this? I'd really like the first piece of data to be correct.

Incorrect Username For Workbook In Use

May 14, 2008

Usually when you try to open a file that someone else is using, it lets you know the file is in use, and lets you know who is using it. However, the situation I have is that when a user tries to open the file that is in use, it tells them that the file is in use, but gives them the wrong user who is using it!

For example, User1 opens the file and closes it again. User2 comes along and opens the file and stays in the file. User3 comes along and tries to open the file, but instead of saying User2 is using the file. It says User1 is using!

The file we have was originally built in Excel 97, but we using it through compatibility mode in Office 2007. The file is needed by various users, but putting it on shared access is not an option.

Correct/Incorrect If Cell Contains Letter

Jun 12, 2009

I have one column: in the first cell comes text (beginning either with the letter "L" or "R") and afterwards, in the next cell, comes a number (either "7" or "8"). Basically the column is made up of alternating cells containing either text (code of a movie) or numbers (responses to the respective movies). I want to find a formula which writes either:

- "correct" if the number "7" follows a cell containing the letter "L" or an "8" follows a cell containing the letter "R";

or

- "incorrect" if the number "7" follows a cell starting with the letter "R" or the number "8" follows a cell starting with the letter "L".

Basically the 8 is always correct with an R and the 7 with an L: ...

Pie Chart Percentage Calculation Incorrect

Aug 21, 2013

This is so simple, yet Excel doesn't give the correct value. So, here you go, I only have 2 Cells and 2 Labels. One Label for one Number and the other Label for the other Number.

For the Pie Chart I chose Cells:

Cell B36 with the number $54288
Cell B39 with the number $166113

By simply viewing this one can see one of the Percentages should be around 33% and the other 66%. However, Excel gives it a Percentage of 25% and 75%.

How can I get the correct values?

Incorrect Total For Summed Hours

Feb 10, 2009

I am stumped on a formula answer I am getting on a simple timesheet. The timesheet is set up with an In and Out column for each day and person for the entire month. A formula calculates their total hours worked on a daily basis, minus their lunch (30 minutes per day). So far, so good.

The trouble comes when I try to sum the hours worked for the entire month. I am getting an incorrect total. The example I am working I am summing E3:BN3, which show the employee working 15 days in a month, 12 net hours per day. 15x12=180 hours a month. My sum total is showing up as 300:00:00. It may help to know we use a 24 hour format. I have the results cell formatted as [h]:mm.
