Inserting Vlookup Function In All Workbooks
May 21, 2009
I have around 700 workbooks in a folder on my PC.
My master file(master database.xlsx) is kept open from which i have to Vlookup the values into these 700 workbooks.
The "agent Id" column is common in both the master database.xlsx as well as those other workbooks also.
The thing i want to do is i need the data from the "reporting supervisor" which is in the master database.xlsx file to be available in the G column of the other 700 books ( i have attached only 4 sample books). The G column can be then named as "Reporting Supervisor". Since "Agent ID" is available in both files we can vlookup taking this as a base. I have attached the 4 sample files out of 700 as well as the master database file in a zip file.

I'm trying to create a macro that will open automatically generated report outputs and manipulate the data.
The macro will run from it's own workbook (Report Macro.xls), sheets / cells within this workbook are available as 'helpers'.
So far what I have working ok is;
Via a browse dialogs in a userform in Report Macro.xls I select 5 different report outputs. I'm storing the full filename & path in Sheet Data, Cells B1:B6 (B1 being the filename & path to the macro file). In column C I have just the filename
The first file is opened and manipulated as required. The next thing I need to do with it is to open the second file (filename / path in B3) and put a Vlookup in cell 02 of the first file which will look for data in the second (the second file will only ever have a single sheet).
As a formula I'd be using
Code:
=VLOOKUP(A2,'Email 22FEB12.XLS'!$B$7:$C$13120,2,FALSE)
In VBA if I use;
Code:
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=VLOOKUP(RC[-14],'Email 22FEB12.XLS'!R7C2:R13120C3,2,FALSE)"
It works great. However, the second filename will change and I need to take it from the macro file, sheet 'Data', cell 'C3'.
How can I use the contents of sheet Data, cell C3 in the VBA code above instead of the filename being hard-coded?

i have this super huge worksheet im working with and im trying to insert a vlookup forumla at the first blank cell at the end of each column. for some reason when i tried:
Range("B" & lastrowB + 1).FormulaR1C1 = "test"
it worked but.. when i tried
Range("B" & lastrowB + 1).FormulaR1C1 = "=VLOOKUP(A2435,[tmp.xls]vRptMOMarkToHedgeFacilities!$A:$BF,7,0)"
it didn't work. giving me an error on that line stating: Run-time error '1004': Application-defined or object-defined error.

The problem is that I want the second cell of the NETWORKDAYS function (in this case: R2C11) to be a variable cell. I want it to be cells(2, c - 3).

The code below pulls information based on what i specify in a userform from another sheet.
I am trying to total the last 3 columns but for some reason the code sticks the sum formula right in middle of all my information. However, when i run the code (the exact same way) again then the code puts the sum underneath the last row as indicated in the code. How can i get the code to run right the first time around?

I am trying to do a Vlookup between 2 workbooks. I've tried a couple different ways and none seem to be working.
From the inventory workbook I need the Stator and Rotor SN's, O.D. and I.D. only for the ones that have the Status "SHOP" to come up on the Comparison Workbook.
Attached is the two workbooks.

I want to link two workbooks together with the aim that when a option is selected in a drop down menu in workbook "band form", it auto populates the rest of the form with data from the second workbook "showsales2013". date, ticket price, support acts etc etc.......
as a example,the drop down in workbook "band form" is a list of bands (list data also taken from showsales2013) ive got this bit working ok (i think ), each band is playing on a different day so i have used this formula to get the "date" from "showsales2013"
=VLOOKUP(F4,[ShowSales2013.xls]Sheet1!$1:$65536,4,0)
this seems to work until i insert a new row and/or column (in the showsales wookbook - which needs doing from time to time as new bands get booked to play), then i get #REF in the date cell on the "band form blank".
i used pretty much the same formula to pull the other needed data (price/support acts etc ) from showsale2013, and the result is the same, #REF.

I have looked through the forum and haven't been able to find an answer. I have two workbooks. One has a worksheet with two columns - the first column holds ID's, the second column has the names associated with them. My second workbook has a large table with many different fields and ID's only. I would like to use Vlookup to add the names to the second workbook.

I have a piece of code that hides unneeded rows, it does work but it is very slow.
This is in the worksheet part of the project. My problem is as it runs it "jumps" in to a function I have in a module that counts continuous rows. I would like to know why it is doing this and what I need to do to stop it? I have another piece of code that is structered exactly the same that hides unneeded columns and I do not have any problems with that. I know both pieces of code are dealing with rows and I think this is part of the problem but I can not see any reason why the first bit would call the second bit?
Dim C
With Worksheets("CEN OAS"). Range("D5:D378")
.EntireRow.Hidden = False
End With
For Each C In Worksheets("CEN OAS").Range("D5:D378")
If C.Value = "" Then
C.EntireRow.Hidden = True
End If
Next C
Function to count used rows....................

let me start by saying that I know an example workbook would be useful here, but the part I'm struggling with is the [managementroster.xlsm] file, and there is A. no way I can release it to the internets and B. its so huge/complicated I couldn't even begin to reproduce a portion of it, scrubbed of data, and hope to maintain its functionality in a meaningful manner.
[Code]....
This formula checks a staff number on this spreadsheet, and then goes and looks at the staff number on the roster. Once found, it returns that staff members roster, but changes any manager codes in the MRC list to Mgr, and changes all other roster codes to Free.
I now need this formula, before altering roster codes to Mgr or Free, to only return codes that are a match for another table (or after really. I don't particularly care, so long as only codes are shown that match data from another table). I think an index/match function would do the trick, but this forumula is already at the edge of my excel ability, nesting another function within it is completey beyond me. The relevant cells for the index/match function would be:
This first Match function targets the column. $E3 is the date required, $BA$1:$DN$1 is the range the dates are entered in
Match: Lookup value = $E3
Lookup array = '[ManagementRoster.xlsm]Vacancies!'$BA$1:$DN$1
match type = 0
This second Match function targets the row. $A$4 is the department name, $B$434:$B$452 is the range where all departments are entered
Match: Lookup value = $A$4
Lookup Array = '[ManagementRoster.xlsm]Vacancies!'$B$434:$B$452
match type = 0
Index: array = $BA$434:$DN$452
So I think my final function is
[Code] .....
But I have absolutely NO idea where it would fit within my first formula, or how to code it so that my original formula only reproduces results that are found in both sheets, or anything.

I have a user which needs to run a vlookup daily. There is some formatting involved, especially with 2 exported workbooks...
So I wanted to make her a macro to do it. So she exports 2 workbooks where the names change based off the date range she runs the data for.
I was thinking I wanted her to close excel completely, then run them in a specific order and do the vlookups based of Index Numbers.
I can do the entire macro except for the syntax of the vlookup. I think if i write what I need, you guys could put it in proper syntax:
=Vlookup(RC[-10],Workbooks(2).Sheets(1).Range(A:A),1,false)

I have 5 worksheets in file Z on drive J which are full of VLOOKUP formulas pulling data from several files on drive K. Each worksheet pulls data from it's own file on drive K...ie, worksheet AB pulls all of it's data from file AB_2008, etc. On worksheet CD there are two rows which populate with #N/A when I open file Z, but if I open file CD_2008, the #N/A's automatically populate with the correct values. Any ideas??? I am not a programer but I have pretty fair excel skills...but this one has stumped me.
Here's my formula:
=VLOOKUP($A19,'K:sopworkbookssop_2008[sop_2008_rt.xls]11-RT-PPR'!$A:$BQ,C$34,FALSE)

I am trying to use Workbooks.Open() function in a function. The function is not working as desired (it does not return workbook object), but when i use same piece of code in sub(macro), it works fine. I am not sure if I cant use this API inside function. I am using function because I would like to call this inside cell and that should return some value.

Is it possible to VLookUp Data between multiple workbooks (12 different workbooks to be exact) in one master sheet?
I would like the master sheet to find the empty data for the item number. Basically, how can I automatically populate the empty data for each item number in the master sheet. Every item will be different. The 12 workbooks are invoices throughout the year (Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, etc) and these workbooks have the data needed to fill the master sheet. How is this possible? Or is it not?
Master sheet.xlsx
-Contains item number
-Purchase Date
-Sell Date
-Purchase Price
-Sell Price
-Profit Price
The 12 workbooks are the 12 months out of the year, which are invoices.
- Contain the data needed in the master sheet such as sell date, sold price, and profit.
The reason I would like to keep the 12 invoices as workbooks instead of worksheets in 1 big file, is due to the high capacity of item numbers each monthly invoice would have. For example (approximately 500 items in each workbook)
I have for hours and weeks, actually months, But I haven't found any sources on the internet, although I have seen the VLook Up how to's on youtube between 2 workbooks, but not the 12 I would like.

I'm trying to create a hyperlink that takes a user to a specific cell (or range of cells) in an external workbook, and I've run into bit of a roadblock. I've discovered that using the method:
=HYPERLINK("[\serverfolder....file.xls]worksheet!range","message")
works just fine as long as there are no spaces in the worksheet name. Unfortunately I am trying to link to an external worksheet with spaces in the name (which I am not allowed to edit).

I've got 3 columns of formulas that end up doing what I need, but I'm thinking it could probably be done easier with VBA.
I have 1 book with a sheet I'll call Log & another book with a sheet I'll call Source. On the Log, column E has the first 9 characters of vendor names & /vendor number (ex: EDMUND FI/00250), along with other data out through column P. On Source, the vendor names are in C & a short code for their name is in A.
I need to compare the first 9 characters in Log col E with the first 9 characters in Source col C. When a match is found, I need to return the short code from Source col A. BUT - if there's a duplicate in either Source col C or A, instead I need to return the word VERIFY, preferably with the cell highlighted in red.
Right now, I have, on Source col L:
Code:
=MID(C2,1,9)
and in source M:
Code:
=IF(OR(A2=A1,A2=A3,L2=L1,L2=L3),"VERIFY",A2)
This gives me the first 9 characters of the vendor name in L & the short code OR VERIFY in M
Then, in Log col R, I have an array formula:
Code:
=VLOOKUP(MID(E4,1,9),'[PRETICKET P ADDRESSES working.xls]Paddress'!$L:$M,2,FALSE)
This gives me either the short code or VERIFY from Source M. Also, sometimes it doesn't find a match & it returns #N/A. Then I have to do Conditional Formatting to make the VERIFY cells red & I thought I'd make the error cells be yellow (although I haven't figured out the CF for that yet)
Is there a better way to do this with VBA? I'm working with Excel 2010; just got it & still figuring it out.

I am trying to use the vlookup function together with an offset function but i am not getting it to work properly.
The situation is as follows:
I have a column E in which i use the vlookup function to find its corresponding value in B which in turn refers to a named range. However, the figure i want the function to return is 2 columns to the right and 2 rows above the value which the vlookup funtion finds in the first column.
I have though of using the offset function, but i cannot figure out how to make this work.

I created an addin that puts a formula in a cell to make use of a UDF in the addin. It works fine.
But when I make changes to my addin, save it as new name, load the new addin (same as the old but with new code for other things) and then open the workbook that had the UDF working, it now changes from
=customUDFfunction(1,2,3)
to
='C:Documents and SettingshomeuserApplication DataMicrosoftAddInsAddinV123.xla'!customUDFfunction(1,2,3)
The code I'm using to create the formula in the cell is
Cells(x, y).Formula = "=customUDFfunction(1,2,3)"
I'm assuming that when I create the formula in the cell it gets tagged somehow with the addin name and location. How to just put the formula with keeping it specific to the addin that created it?

We're using XP Pro using Excel 07
The background is there are about 40 people who use a Excel based program that contains a pivot and a bunch of other tools that they use on a regular basis, this set of tools has a version number. In this excel workbook, it has a function that looks on the network drive that we have and checks the local version vs the version on our network drive, if its wrong, then the user gets a popup stating your tools are out of date, would you like to update, then they click yes and I have these lines of code
Public Function GetNewTools()
Dim MyFullName As String
'Turn off alerts
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
'Open the new version of tools
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"Network DriveUpdate.xlsm"
End Function
The update file has this code that executes on fileopen in the thisworkbook section by calling the following sub
The main issue we're running into is near the very end, the code never makes it to "TEST 2". After the first workbooks close, the code just stops running. No crashes, errors, freezes, anything. It just stops running and never makes it to the second msg box.

I'm trying to automate a search and match function between two separate workbooks using VBA and am having some problems. I'm using the following line:
search_results = Application.Match(temp, Range("E1:E900"), 0)
which works fine. now the problem is that when i'm searching for lets say "ABCD" in one of the workbooks, if there is an entry "ABCD " (with a space at the end) it says that the entry doesn't exist. is there any way of correcting it such that it would always neglect the space at the end if it exists? i tried using -1 instead of 0 and it messes up, so i'm not sure what to do.

have a formula or something along those lines that will look for the data you type in to the selected cell and will show you on how many workbooks it has been entered in. For example, I have workbook a, b, c, d, e, f. all have 12 sheets. On these 12 sheets there is a place to enter the serial number of an item. What I would like to be able to do is on a different workbook be able to type in a serial number and have it show which workbooks it has ever been typed in and its location on said workbooks. and if possible the results of the item which would be whether it was accepted or rejected( this bit is not totally must have. but the workbook and sheet location is a must.)
