Is There A Way To Use A Referenced Formula For Different Data
Aug 17, 2009
Here is a google doc of my issue: [url]
An Excel sheet is also attached.
I believe you have permissions to edit.
In H1:H4 I have 4 different functions. When the user specifies which function to use in E1 (add, subtract, multiply, or divide), I would like C1:C4 to evaluate the values in Columns A & B.
My problem is that the formula only uses the values in A1 and B1. When I copy the formula down the column, it still evaluates for the values in A1 and B1, not in A2 and B2, A3 and B3, etc...

I am after an automatic formula or function which calculates values for long lists instead of me dragging down the formula all the way to the end of the document.
Hence, I have a long list of data in columns A, B&C and I want the formula in column D to automatically be calculated all the way down when the list stops.

Here is the scenario:
A B C D
BananasApplesOrangesTotal113=A1+B1+C1
I need to reference the formula in D1 with the cells headers names.
In a perfect world, it would take
=A1+B1+C1:
and produce:
=Bananas+Apples+Oranges

My problem is that when i used the forumla = SUM(Q11:AW11) to add up the range of cells it dosnt do it. It only added up 2 of the numbers in the range of cells. And missed out everything else. This forumla is being used to add up all the volunteer hours for volunteers for each month and for all the other months the formula worked fine but now its just being a pain.

I have attached a sample workbook which shows what I am trying to extract from sheet "Service Reminders 2014". In worksheet "Results" cells b11:e11 I am trying to extract the amount of vehicles with within age ranges provided that have a magic number attached which is pretty easy everything >0 is a proper magic number and also the amount of vehicles in each age range that have "Booked" associated within the range of "Service Reminders" Y2:AH5000, The formula works fine until I add the final criteria and then it give me a #VALUE!

I have a formula that looks up a chart showing scores referenced against each other as shown below. (Scaled down version)
******** ******************** ************************************************************************>Microsoft Excel - Table Template.xls___Running: 11.0 : OS = Windows Windows 2000 (F)ile (E)dit (V)iew (I)nsert (O)ptions (T)ools (D)ata (W)indow (H)elp (A)boutA1B1C1D1E1=

[HtmlMaker 2.42] To see the formula in the cells just click on the cells hyperlink or click the Name box
PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE THIS TABLE IMAGE ON SAME PAGE! OTHEWISE, ERROR OF JavaScript OCCUR.
The problem is when the score is i.e. 12-3 the formula is only looking at 2-3. Hence this actually then shows as a defeat. The formula causing this problen is an array and shown as
=SUM(IF(NOT(ISERROR(LEFT(resultsHome,FIND("-",resultsHome)-1))),
--(LEFT(Results!$B3:$K3,FIND("-",Results!$B3:$K3)-1)>MID(Results!$B3:$K3,FIND("-",Results!$B3:$K3)+1,9))))
Question. How can the formula be changed to reflect scores like 12-3 to be shown as a home win.............

I have a spreadsheet with a number of different formulae on it. I have a macro which I want to extract which cells are referenced in the formula in the active cell and then branch based on the which cell is referenced.
Is there a way to find the referenced cells without parsing the formula string?

I have an IF formula on one worksheet that refers to another worksheet (ex: =IF(Page1!$A13="";"";Page1!$A13). The problem is when I move data from one cell to another the formula becomes #REF. (ex: =IF(Page1!#REF="";"";Page1!#REF)).

I am trying to reference a date in a formula that points to a sheet name.
See Below.
A B
November 11, 2005 ='11-11-05'!$v$35
How can I automate the date to pull from column A and place that value in the date for column B? Column B is the name of a different sheet in the workbook.

I'm trying to create a list that references an existing data set where I have staff listed month by month and based on today's date, imports only if there is data in that column. I have figured out how to check if the cell is blank or not, but what I want to do now is change the cell that is referenced in the formula based on the date. Here is the format of the spreadsheet I'm working with:
A
B
C
D
E
F
G
H
[code].....
In this case, the "Team 1" and "Team 2" and "Team 3" references what team they are on that month. If it is blank, they aren't with the company any longer. The formula I am using is intended to import this data elsewhere, and is formatted like this:
=IF(ISBLANK(B2), "", A2) - My understanding is that this checks to see if B2 has data, and if it does, it inputs the employee name (A3) in that cell.
My ultimate goal is to be able to change the column referenced after the "isblank" calculation based on the date. So if today is April 2013, I want it to check B2, but if it's December 2013, I want the formula to check J2. Is there a way to do this? I don't mind if it's two steps (like if I have to put the date somewhere in the spreadsheet in order to run the calculation), but ultimately it would be the type of thing I could do that would leverage the existing data set so that I don't have to maintain two different spreadsheets of information.

I have tried numerous versions of macros I found. Most get the same error of; Range object error or script error.
Here is the formula: VLOOKUP(C$13,VESSELS_DATA,ROW(30:30)-12)
What I would like to do:
1) double click to on the cell with the formula
2) goto the worksheet "DATA_TABLES" that contains the Named Range "VESSELS_DATA"
3) go down the rows until the c13 is matched
4) offset column the same as in the above formula "Row(30:30)-12"

In lack of database experience, I am using a hidden Excel sheet for data and several other sheets with referenced data. I am populating the data sheet from an inputform and inserting new references on save. This works pretty good, but when the data has to be updated, I've currently used the before doubleclick event and hereby used the activecell for reference, but now the data is on a different sheet!

I have a excel based timesheet that looks at an external table named "Station Master" to populate columns from a vlookup. I have recently linked the Station Master to a database to populate it. From the database we may change status so that the project does not show up in the station master anymore to make sure complete projects are not getting hours charged anymore. Now if a project that was on the master goes away previous timesheets lose the correct description because it is not on the station master anymore.
My question is there anyway to make the previous data lock so the data that is in the cells won't change when the station master changes.
A little more info... the time sheets are by quarter so 12 weeks are in the same workbook as individual worksheets. All of those worksheets vlookup to a worksheet called "projects" inside the workbook. Then that worksheet references the external Station Master workbook.

Sort Example.xlsx
I have data in Sheet "Schedule" in range A8:C160 (including column headers), but note the length (rows) of the range is dynamic.
A8 = Customer
B8 = Load Time
C8 = Delivery Time
Columns B & C are formatted as h:mm:ss AM/PM, but Column B also includes text..."PRELOAD"
I would like a macro to sort the data based on column B, but the sort must follow a specific order, which is listed in Sheet "TimeSort", range A1:A50 (including header).
The custom order basically has "PRELOAD" sorting at the top, then sorting everything else chronologically starting at 6:00am.
The desired outcome would sort the range based on column B as follows...PRELOAD, 6:00:00 AM, 8:00:00 AM, 12:00:00 PM, 5:30:00 AM
Example is attached (desired sort is reflected).

I have a summary worksheet consisting of columns that are referenced to other sheets within the same workbook.
If the cell in the 'referring' (original) sheet is blank then the forumula returns a zero instead of a blank in my summary worksheet, which is messing up some other calculations.
Is there a way to make these cells truly blank, or possibly into string variables instead, so that they do not interfere with my calculations?

I'm trying to do a formula that references a cell and returns a different result dependant on the number in the cell being referenced.
For example I've said if A1 has a 3 in it then put the word TEST as the result, plus if it has a 4 put the word RESULT.
What I wrote as my formula is as follows-
=IF(A1=3,"TEST")+IF(A1=4,"RESULT")
It works fine when I only use one result but goes wrong when I add two. If I change the words I want to show to numbers it comes up fine but with words it just returns a Value error.

I need to create a cell reference which will allow me to specify a cell in a table by value (using indirect) and pull the value from a cell immediately one row over for use in a formula. Say I have a table Containing column A and B; I want to reference the value of a cell in column A (e.g. "Large Widget") and receive (in the formula) the value in column B (e.g. "41 cm^2").

In cell A1 I have a number representing a column and in cell A2 I have a number representing a row. In A3 I wish to obtain the value from the cell referenced by these two numbers.
ie
A1 = 3
A2 = 4
A3 = value from cell C4 (column 3, row 4). How do I write a formula in A3 to look this value up?? I know about the range function in visual basic but I just want to be able to do this using a spreadsheet formula.

I had posted earlier and felt I had solved my problem, but I have not. What I am trying to do is use code to change directory when the save menu is activated.
I want to be able to open from one location and then it defaults to another. I have tried "chdir" , but I can't seem to get it to work. Even when I change the DefaultFilePath, the "save as" location defaults to the location where the file was opened from. I want to default all "saves" in a specific location without using the menu to select.

I have a matrix of numbers that is 6 columns (A,B,C,D,E,F) by 200 rows. The number 4 randomly appears 83 times in this matrix. My objective is to setup a cell outside of the matrix at cell location H1 that will be referenced linked to all of the cells where the number 4 shows up in the matrix using a formula like: "=$H$1" inside all of the 83 separate cells where 4 shows up. I am doing this manually, and it is a drag.
Is it possible to make Excel do the linking for you automatically? I'm talking about selecting any region of numbers and then instructing Excel to find all occurances of a number you are looking for and then have Excel setup a link for you by inserting "=$H$1" automatically where that number shows up? Therefore, when I go to cell "=$H$1" and type in 7, all of the 83 locations where 4 is contained automatically change to 7. Again what I'm trying to avoid is having to manually setup these links. I want to know if Excel can find the occurances of the number 4 (or any other number) in any region I select and then have it do the referenced linking for me to any cell I specify that is outside the region I select.

I'm looking to set up a table in Excel (or possibly Access that is then referenced through Excel). But end goal would be to be able to type in an Item Number and then Excel automatically fills in the Description, weight, price and other information about that item number. That way, I don't have to type in "11108.1" and "Computer Mouse" and "$15.98". I want to only type in "11108.1" and it knows to fill in the other information. Is this possible in Excel? I've searched through many functions and haven't found it so I'm thinking it may require a combination of formulas.

I am working on a spreadsheet that will be referencing approximately 20-30 separate workbooks which all have identical sheet / column structure and have a consistent file naming convention. ("###-YYYY") Since, this is referencing separate files and not sheets with this workbook, I cannot use INDIRECT. However, I should be able to use index / match referencing provide instructions for users to copy a set of cells down and the globally change the file name. The problem is that the file directory pops up with each instance and the user has to manually select or confirm the file.
There would be approximately 15 cells with a formula similar to this example and would want to change the two instances of "403" to a new 3-digit code, say "444". Then as each year cycles over, we'd want to change all instances of 2014 to 2015.
=INDEX('C:Users
lagraffDownloads[403-2014.xlsx]Forecast Budget'!$D$15:$D$48,MATCH($P$2,'C:Users
lagraffDownloads[403-2014.xlsx]Forecast Budget'!$B$15:$B$48,0))
Any settings in Excel, or known tricks, so the user won't have to continuously click on the file and the find/replaces executes at each instance?

In my excel sheet I have a list of where they go, which are basically excel cells.. i.e. A1 is the top left corner.
What I am trying to figure out how to do is, is there a way that I can get excel to see "A1" and then put it in A1 of another sheet on the bottom. Thus I get the same grid I have on the wall, making a map of my things.
Also, I could just cut and paste, but the problem is I'm working on organizing the stuff on the wall, and if I do it the way I want to, when I move things, they should automatically be moved on the chart.
So basically I need it to look at a cell for the reference, choose text from another cell (which will be concaternated(sp) text), and then place it in the referenced cell in the chart sheet.

I have a dorm roster on one sheet and the other sheet is an Alpha Roster. I want it to automatically sort alphabetically (column B) . Any time I change the roster, the Alpha Roster sheet doesn't automatically sort, I have to hilight and re-sort it again.
I updated the file, there are 4 tabs at the bottom. 1st Floor, 2nd Floor, and 3rd Floor. I want to have all the names, room numbers, and phases (ph) in alphabetical order on the Alpha roster tab. And when ever I make changes to one of the Floors, it will automatically update it the Alpha Roster.

I have a worksheet called "PurchaseOrders" and a worksheet called "Orders."
In the "Orders" Worksheet I have a command button. When this button is clicked it writes to cells in the "PurchaseOrders" Worksheet. The cell range it writes to is N21:N1000. It basically writes an invoice number which exists in cell B6 of the "Orders" Worksheet with each number listed in order.
After it has written, when I return to the "Orders" Worksheet, if the button is clicked again but the PurchaseOrders" Worksheet N21:1000 contains an invoice, the same as "Orders" Worksheet B6 (a duplicate), I would like an error message to be returned stating "Please Create a new invoice." I already have a sub where error messages are recorded for void fields and unregistered customers.
How would I write an if statement in this sub to say:
IF Cell range in "PurchaseOrders" Worksheet (N21:N1000) does not equal the code in "Orders Worksheet (B6) please process code as normal. Else if it does please display an error message and do not proceed with processing any code? For some reason I'm having trouble naming the cell range.

I'm trying to do is sort cells which are referenced by names in the name box when a button is clicked. All the coding is in VBA.
If a cell is sorted by a macro, I would like the referenced name to move with it on the spreadsheet.
For example if the referenced name box for C5 is Bob and Andrew is the referenced name box in C6, when a button is clicked I would like the Andrew reference to move to C5 and Bob to move to C6. This is sorting in alphabetical order. However, I would like the referenced names to stay the same. Referenced Name refers to the cell name box.
Is there a way to do this in VBA?

I have an Add-In installed on multiple computers. When I update it I update them all at the same time so that everyone is on the same page. The Add-In is always in the same location for all computers.
C:- Global FilesVF MacroVF Macro Add-In.xlam
I use the Add-In to format a sheet and one of the formats is to display the "last author" & "Last Save Time" This is the code used:
Code:
Function DocProps(prop As String)
Application.Volatile
On Error GoTo err_value
[Code]....
The same situation occurs with cell Z8 as well. It appears it is looking in the wrong location. If I change the E to a C in the formula bar it fixes the issue but I cannot rely on my users to do this every time. We keep the WB's in question on an external drive and pass it around as needed. So they will run into this problem on a regular basis.
I also get a "Security Warning - Automatic update of Links has been disabled" message only when run from the USB drive.
