If the addition of two cells (a1 and b1) do not add up to more than 10 then I would like cell c1 to display the word FAIL

I've tried the following

If (a1 + b1 ) < 11 then c1 = "FAIL"

But it doesn't like it

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.

Discrepancy Between Word And Worksheet Syntax?

Oct 15, 2009

I should disclaim that I'm quite novice at that, so my approach to writing macros is to record individual steps to determine the appropriate method, then copy and paste.

In any event, I have a macro that creates a word doc from content in an excel file. I copied over the code for inserting a text field from the Word Macro Recorder:

I have this code for setting up a sheet to begin a calculation involving the solver add in. I am getting a "Run Time Error 13: Type Mismatch" on the line that inserts a formula into the cell.

Several Formulas In One Cell + Logic Fail

May 3, 2009

According to what I've read so far in this forum, this will be cakewalk for you guys to find out of (or at least so I hope.. :-) I don't know much about Excel, and what I do know is just logic sense, and a bit of common math.

My problem is in a sheet I use for my personal economy. (I'm a neatfreak, and a nerd...) The logic of my sheet is that I seperate the different type of monthly expenses, and sum them individually. The way I do this is that the A Column identyfies an expense (where 1 = rent, 2 = food, 3 = gas etc) while the C column is the expense itself, Example:

A B C
On account 500
1 rent -200
2 food -20
3 gas -10
2 food -10
Sum expenses -240
On account 260

I then use this formula to discern them:
{=ABS(SUM(IF(A$4:A$30=X;C$4:C$30;0)))}............

If Else Syntax: Change Some Outputs Of The Macro Without Changing The Syntax

I´m writting a macro. It works find until a certain point. When I want to change some outputs of the macro without changing the syntax, it display an error mesage while runing the macro.

Set wb = Workbooks("Projekt.xls")
wb.Activate

Formula To Search For One Word In Adjacent Cell?

Jul 8, 2014

I've got a long list of company names, i'm trying to create a formula to see if they match but the problem is the names won't match exactly (e.g it would be Joe Bloggs Limited & Joe blogg's ltd). I've thought about it and think the best way to see if they match would be to take the first word from the first cell (in this case Joe) and then search for it in the next cell and return TRUE if it exists anywhere in the cell and FALSE if not.

Syntax For Using Variables Within VBA Formula Functions?

Dec 3, 2003

correctly using variables within functions used in formulas specified by VBA. Here's an example:

I want to place a formula within a workbook file called "Books 2003.xls" that goes to the version of the file for the previous year (or whatever year is specified) and does a Sum of a particular range (where that range is also specified as a variable) so it sums up the Total for the previous year for the same number of months that have data in them to date for the current year. Once VBA places the formula where it belongs, it should be able to always provide a running comparisson with the current year to date total and the totals for the same period for the previous year. Here's an example of the intent of this simple formula:

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=SUM('[Books 2002.xls]Income Summary'!R4C2:R8C2)"

The workbook files will all be named the same way: Books 2002.xls, Books 2003.xls etc.... The range to be summed will always start at R4C2, but could then end anywhere from R4C2 (same as B4) up to R15C2 (same as B15).

I already have a routine that captures the value for the variable CurrentYear in the form "2003" and thus have another variable for PrevYear (= CurrentYear -1), and so then have a way to correctly specify the variable "BookName" to get the correct filename needed. I also have a variable for the CurrentMonth in the form of "1 through 12", and can use that to specifiy the correct RowNum needed to determine the end of the range (RowNum = CurrentMonth + 3).

I've tried to substitute the variables "BookName" and "RowNum" into the above formula with various combinations such as what follows, but I'm not getting the correct syntax with the right number of quotes etc...:

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ""=SUM('[" & BookName & "]Income Summary'!R4C2:R" & RowNum & "C2)""

This doesn't work, and I'd love to learn the correct rules for syntax when inserting variables into situations like this.

Finding Right Syntax For Concatenating A Space In If / Then Formula

Apr 16, 2012

Below is the "real formula"

=IF(SUM($F$4-$E$4)= 0," ",SUM($F$4-$E$4)) 'If the value is 0 then enter a space in the cell.

And below is the VBA formula

"=if(sum(" & LastRowCell & "-" & FirstRowCell & ")= 0," & " " & ",sum(" & LastRowCell & "-" & FirstRowCell & "))"

The real formula works, but I am having having difficulties with the syntax of the VBA formula. The above VBA formula works to, but enters a 0 in the cell instead of a space.

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.

Correct Syntax To Add Workbook Name That Is Stored In Variable Into Formula?

Feb 24, 2014

I have the following code, which executes just fine:

[Code].....

The problem is that I need to run this again in a different column, and the data is held in another sheet that I have given the variable StepTwo to.

I'm not sure of the syntax to do this. Basically - this is what I need the code to do:

[Code] ....

Understandably this is totally incorrect, but it's the best I can do to explain what I'm actually trying to do....

The two parts of SUMIF are both held in a workbook that I've given the variable "StepTwo" to. Both sets of data are also held on Sheet(1) of that workbook.

Excel 2007 :: Syntax For Referencing Worksheet In A Formula

Apr 19, 2012

I am using Excel 2007 in Windows XP. I am trying to change the worksheet referenced in a formula from the label of the worksheet to the index of the sheet. I want to use this macro in multiple workbooks, and the relevant sheets have different names but are all in the same position.

I used "record macro" to get the structure of my code. It gave me the line:

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=SUM('8Nov11'!R[13]C[-4]:R[108]C[-4])"

I want to change that '8Nov11' to the 3rd worksheet from the left, so something like:

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=SUM(ThisWorkbook.Sheets(3)!R[13]C[-4]:R[108]C[-4])"

I can't get this to work, and I can't find the syntax for this anywhere. I've tried with and without quotes, exclamation points, changing to A1 notation and using "Range," "Sheets," "Worksheets," "Item(3)", and many other combinations, but haven't gotten it right.

Most of the errors I get are "Runtime Error 1004: Application-defined or object-defined error."

Conditional Formula Syntax Shows Hash Signs

Jul 1, 2007

I trying to write a conditional formula to test data in a cell to see where it falls between certain values, and depending on the data in the cell, will display a message in another cell showing what level has been attained. It's a long formula and I may not have the syntax correct. Can someone look at this and tell me where I have went wrong? All I get in the target cell is "################".

Here is the formula:

Try this formula. Array formulas will have curly brackets {} emcompassing the ENTIRE formula. You do not add these, you Enter the formula with Ctrl+Shift+Enter and Excel will add them (details: Array formulas). Many more Excel Formulas
  =IF(c13<1600,"Not at prize level yet",IF(AND(c13>=1600,c13<=1999.99),"You have reached level 1",IF(AND(c13>1999.99,c13<=2499.99),"You have reached level 2",IF(AND(c13>2499.99,c13<=2999.99),You have reached level 3,IF(AND(c13>3000,c13<=3499.99),"You have reached level level 4",IF(c13>3500,"You have reached the top level!!"))))))
