INDIRECT : How Do I Make It Work

Jul 2, 2008

The following formula gives me the error message #REF!

=INDEX(INDIRECT("R7"),MATCH(V6,D8:D11,1),11)

The problem I believe is in the INDIRECT("R7") as the following formula works

=INDEX(Well_AA_09,MATCH(V6,D8:D11),1),11)

The content of cell R7 is the text Well_AA_09 which is the name of a dynamic range I have created and pasted from within VBA into cell R7.

Formula Requires Parameter In Quotes, Indirect Doesn't Work

Aug 13, 2008

I've been given a formula to use (embedded in an add-in that is password-protected). One of the parameters REQUIRES quotes.

The formula goes like this: =MYFORMULA(1,2,3,"ABC")

If I put ABC in a cell (say C5) and use the formula =MYFORMULA(1,2,3,INDIRECT(C5)), the formula doesn't work.

If I put "ABC" in cell C5, the indirect function still work make the function work.

Even if I have ABC in cell C5 and use =MYFORMULA(1,2,3,""""&C5&"""") or =MYFORMULA(1,2,3,""""&INDIRECT(C5)&""""), these won't work.

I wish I could just change the UDF behind this, but that isn't possible.

INDIRECT FUNCTION - Make Data Stay Permenantly

Dec 9, 2009

I have approx 500 workbooks which contain custoemr details and I need to extract certain info (postcode, name, contact, phone number etc) and place it all on 1 spreadsheet. I was originally going to source data from unopen workbooks, but have realized I only need to do this task once, and I can maintain it from then on...


I have created a spreadsheet (attached) which uses INDIRECT formulas to retrieve the data. When I type in the file name in column A, Columns B to K fill themselves in. What I want to know is:

Once I open say, 10 Workbooks, TYPE the name in manually and all the other cells have filled themselves, I want to somehow KEEP the data there, rather than it return a #REF error when I close the workbooks to open the next batch.

Also, if you look at my workbook, to the far right is a range of data which I use in my INDIRECT formulas. Once I have filled all the cells with the relevant data, I want to be able to Filter my spreadsheet by Date Ascending. BUT I cant seem to do it because it includes my INDIRECT range in the filter and mess's up the formulas then I have tried Locking & protecting workbook, with Autofilter & select cells etc TICKED for users to use, but it still tells me to unlock workbook when I try to filter.

Reference Sheet Names With Indirect Function To Make Formula?

May 21, 2014

Attached I have a document where I am wanting all of the individual sheet names on the Total page. Rather than having to change each formula to match the sheet name I believe there is a way to reference the sheet name column (AO) in the formula so you can drag it down to fill in the columns. I am basic with Excel and do not know how to add this indirect function into my current formulas.

How To Make IF Work On Formulas And Not Values

Nov 18, 2013

I've developed a spreadsheet that shows what errors people made in their spreadsheets. I compare cell A1 in spreadsheet 1 (original) against cell A1 in spreadsheet 2 (final), in spreadsheet 3. Spreadsheet 3 shows a "-" if the cell they wrote was OK, and shows the new, correct value if they made an error, as follows:

=IF('Final'!A5='Original'!A5, "-",'Final'!A5)

The problem is, this only works if I take the original spreadsheets, which contain formulae in each cell, and paste them into a new spreadsheet using paste values.

Is it possible for the IF function to search the formula in a cell, and not the value?

Make Macro Work In Many Rows

Jan 31, 2007

I'm having some difficulty with this one. I have found several posts on how to make a macro work through several rows, but cannot seem to figure out how to apply it to my macro.

Right now I'm having to write the macro for every line and it's a bear! Here's what I'm working with right now and it's ridiculous (I've actually got through line 51, but I'll only post a few here, for your sanity!)- there has to be a better way:

If Range("C9") = "" Then
Range("T9").Formula = "=IF(K9>I9,IF((I9-H9)>=180,180,(I9-H9)),IF((I9-H9)+(K9-J9)>=180,IF((K9-J9)>=180,0,180-(K9-J9)),(I9-H9)))"
Range("U9").Formula = "=IF(K9<I9,IF((K9-J9)>=180,180,(K9-J9)),IF((I9-H9)+(K9-J9)>=180,IF((I9-H9)>=180,0,180-(I9-H9)),(K9-J9)))"
Else
Range("T9").Formula = "=IF((T8+U8)>=180,0,(IF(K9>I9,IF((I9-H9)>=180,180,(I9-H9)),IF((I9-H9)+(K9-J9)>=180,IF((K9-J9)>=180,0,180-(K9-J9)),(I9-H9)))))"
Range("U9").Formula = "=IF((T8+U8)>=180,0,(IF(K9<I9,IF((K9-J9)>=180,180,(K9-J9)),IF((I9-H9)+(K9-J9)>=180,IF((I9-H9)>=180,0,180-(I9-H9)),(K9-J9)))))"
End If............................

Convert Some Data From MLS To Make It Easier To Work?

Feb 7, 2014

I'm trying to convert some data from MLS to make it easier to work with statistically. The raw data regarding Bath count downloads from MLS in 2 columns; 1 column for Full Baths & 1 column for Half Baths (see Raw Data.jpg). I want to concatenate the baths to one column and, if there is a 1/2 bath, tack ".5" to the end of the full bath count.

The problem with my formula is that if it concatenates the ".5" to the full bath count number, it converts the format to text (see Current Formula.jpg). I know I can go through later and convert it back to number format but is there a formula I could use that would keep it in number format?

How Can I Make A Macro Work To Hidden Sheets?

Aug 21, 2009

OR can I? I get a "Run Time Error '1004' Select Method of Worksheet Class Failed"

Is there anyway around this?

Basically all the sheets are hidden from the user except for the Entry sheet. They input there data on there and then they press a send command button which then needs to copy that information to a hidden sheet. This is where the problem occurs.. Thought maybe their was a way around that or do I need to unhide the sheets during the macro and then rehide them again?

Macro To Make Pivot Table Won't Work Twice

Aug 14, 2008

Our system can create an SLK file showing customer open orders. It is ALWAYS in the exact same format. I created a macro to open this file, manipulate the data (convert text to numbers, convert text date to actual date, and a few other things) and then make a pivot table.

When I try to run it it gets hung up on the pivot table and the debug highlights the BOLD below:

Columns("F:L").Select
ActiveWorkbook.PivotCaches.Add(SourceType:=xlDatabase, SourceData:= _
"SOLIST!C6:C12").CreatePivotTable TableDestination:="", TableName:= _
"PivotTable1", DefaultVersion:=xlPivotTableVersion10
ActiveSheet.PivotTableWizard TableDestination:=ActiveSheet.Cells(3, 1)
ActiveSheet.Cells(3, 1).Select

The RowField, ColumnField, and Page Fields are correct.

The QTY is the data that goes in the field.

Develop An Indirect Indirect Validation Drop Down List

Aug 18, 2009

I am trying to develop an Indirect Indirect Validation drop down list. Example, Building - Floor - Room, i.e. Select Building from a Validation drop down list. Then based upon the Building selected, select only the Floors applicable to the Building Selected. I am able to achieve this via an Indirect Validation drop down. However, when I attempt to then select the Rooms applicable to the Floor of the Building I selected, I can not produce an Indirect Validation off a previous Indirect Validation.

In the attachment, I have used Plant - Location - Room. I have name ranged the selections, and have used Validations Lists for Plant, and Indirect Validations for Location. The error occurs where I attempt to do an Indirect Validation for Room.

How To Make Function That Works On One Line Work On Multiple Line

May 19, 2014

I have this function that works on line 3 and if the conditions are met, the result is 1

=SUMPRODUCT(--(IfColor(B3,$A$76)*(SUMPRODUCT(--(D3D4)))))

Here how it works, if B3 is the same color as the reference cell $A$76 and D3 is different than D4 then the result is 1

I would like this function to work from line 3 to line 60 and return the total of lines where the conditions are met. I'm thinking of a =COUNTIF function but can't get something to work. If there is a simpler way, it's even better. The IfColor is a function I wrote in VBA,

Switch Statement Is Too Long For VBA. To Make The Switch Statement Work Over Two Lines

Jan 6, 2009

I have created a very long switch statement, which is too long to be placed in one row in VBA. I have attempted to put a space and underscore at the end of one line and continue the statement on the row below by placing a comma at the start of the second line. VBA will accept my efforts, but when I run the statement in the immediate window, the following error appears.

"Invalid procedure call or argument"

I understand that there are certain rules where I can split a switch statement onto two lines, yet I do not know what they may be.

Work Out A Formula For My Spreadsheet Which I Use To Work Out Cutting Lists For Timber Frames

Jan 11, 2009

i need to work out a formula for my spreadsheet which I use to work out cutting lists for timber frames. I need it to work out if the width of a job is for eg 2400mm i need to work out how many timber studs I need so the space between each stud is between 400mm and 500mm and this will need to work for a range of different sizes of frames. I have it written at the moment and it just devides the width by 400 and gives me a amount of studs but it would work much better if it could space them between 400 & 500.

Make Userform Show Data From Spreadsheet And Add Delete Or Make New Entry

Jan 24, 2014

I have a spreadsheet on sheet 1 with a list of customers and their information. So on column A I have the customer number (i.e. k968, e37, p528,...), on column B i have the customer's name, on column C the street's name, on Column D the house number, on column E the zip code and finally the city on column F.

Right now there are around 600 customers in this list.

I have made a userform with a combobox in which I want to select an existing customer (pulled from the spreadsheet). On the same userform I have textboxes (customer number, name, street, number, zip, city). When I select a customer in the combobox, I want this customer's info to show up in the textboxes. I want to be able to change the info and hit Next to store the changes in the spreadsheet. When I do not select a customer from the combobox, I want to add new info in the textboxes and hit Next to store this info as a new customer. The userform also has a delete button. Then I select a customer in the combobox, this customer (and it's info) should be deleted from the spreadsheet when i hit Delete. So the spreadsheet is variable in length.

INDIRECT And IF In One

Jul 19, 2008

I am using the below formula to return values from a seperate worksheet.

=INDIRECT("'[Test File.xls]Test Data'!A"&A4)

These values are text, numerical and dates. Sometimes there are no dates in the source worksheet to return, and I end up with 00/01/1900.

Is it possible to leave the cell blank if there is no value to return???

I had a stab at trying to nut it out, but it was a Friday afternoon, head was mush, and the pub was calling.
