Link Two Dynamic Workbooks With Multiple Tabs

Nov 23, 2008

There are two teams in my department, and each is assigned to maintain their respective work book and I'm looking to link them in order to save some time.

Team A - Responsible for receiving Invoices (Bills) and entering them in an excel spreadsheet when received and update when bill is paid. Only one tab in this workbook.

Row A - Name of company billing us
Row B - Invoice #
Row C - Invoice Amount
Row D - Once Bill is paid the check amount is entered here
Row E - Balance Due (Row C - Row D = Row E)

Team B - Is Responsible for maintaining a list of all checks issued. All of the checks issued to pay the bills received by Team A are entered here plus other checks to pay a variety of different stuff. On this workbook a new tab is created every month. One tab per month. Since we need to follow accounting rules and record the check NOT on the month it was paid, but on the month the service was provided. for example I might be paying a bill in the month of November for services that were provided in September, so I would need to enter this check in the September Tab.

Row A - Name of company check is paid to
Row B - Invoice #
Row C - Amount Requested to be paid
Row D - Reason for payment
Row E - Date of check issued
Row F - Amount paid
Row G - Check #

Here is what I want to do.

I want to link both of these workbooks so that when Team B fills out the information of the check issued this will automatically update the Workbook of Team A so that
the balance is zeroed out.

He is my challenge. Workbook of Team B has multiple tabs so I can't just do a simple Vlookup and also every month a new tab is created (very dynamic workbook).

TO add to this in Team B's worksheets have to be in alphabetical order, which means that rows are inserted everyday. for example if I paid yesterday to A and C, I enter company A in Row1 and Company C in row 2 but today I received invoice from Company B so in order for them to be alphabetically I would need to insert a row between Row1 and Row2. So if I had links to this workbook they wold not update when the new row is added.

Link And Change Source For Multiple Tabs From Excel To PowerPoint

Jan 18, 2012

I have to prepare a monthly presentation for my company. I have all financial data in multiple tabs in excel that have been linked to many powerpoint slides.

The problem is, I update the same excel sheet every month and save it with a different name. How can I change the source in powerpoint to select and update all the slides with all the corresponding tabs.

At present, I use Edit link (ALT+E+K) > Select each slide on the powerpoint> Change source to new excelfile. When I select all the sheets, the "change source" greys out. Hence I have to do it individually.

Name Two Ranges On Four Tabs In Workbook Across Multiple Workbooks

Apr 12, 2013

I have timesheets in work, where i created basic formulas to display times & worked hours etc. I also have named ranges on 4 of the sheet.

The sheets are named as the department (area 1, stock control etc.). All the sheets are identical in terms of layout, only the names of staff and hours worked are different.

When i created them, i tried to be pro-active and created flippin loads, through to October this year. Problem being i created a Summary sheet for each workbook, which in short takes all names from all areas and collates them on the last tab, puts Mon-Sun across the top, enters the hours into the relevant days, merges hours worked in different areas and also splits the hours worked over each day.

Everything is working flawlessly.

Except, the above evolution of the sheet was done after i mass created the timesheet, and as such i need to manually open each sheet, set the ranges and name them, add a summary sheet, add the macro, save and close.

Is it possible to create a macro on book1, that when i open however many other workbooks (the actual timesheets) the code would set and name the ranges for me?

The time sheets are all named according to the week -> 'W.C - 08.04.2013', 'W.C - 15.04.2013' etc.

Sumproduct With Dynamic Range Across Multiple Workbooks

Apr 11, 2012

I have a problem with a sumproduct formula. The formula works however both workbooks have to be opened at the same time or it will not update and you get a #VALUE! error. The formula is:

=SUMPRODUCT(SUMIF([Mthlydta.xlsx]FEB!$DZ$11:$DZ$65536,Cash,[Mthlydta.xlsx]FEB!$DP$11:$DP$65536))

I have also tried using

=SUMPRODUCT(INDEX([Mthlydta.xlsx]FEB!$DZ$11:$DZ$3000,MATCH(Cash,[Mthlydta.xlsx]FEB!$DP$11:$DP$3000,0),1))

But it only finds the first value in the list Cash. Which the list of accounts for cash will grow because we are expanding and have several mergers going on.

Unstable Link Between Workbooks?

I have a question about linking between Workbooks. I have 2 Workbooks and some cells have Formulas targeting each other, formulas like IF, VLOOKUP... Etc...

I have it that way because the users cannot access other user whole information, even though there is no need of real time sync there is a need to share some of the information between the users.

So.. some cells with the formula appear as #REF, I

Link Workbooks Using Cell Values

Feb 29, 2008

I need to link to a different workbook but using cell values.

For example, in the attached file in cell B4 it looks like this:

='C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorDesktop[2508 Howell Jan-Apr 2008.xls]Week 9'!$D$20

I need a way to change Week 9 in the above formula using a validation list.

I would also like to know how to specify the above workbook referenced using a cell as well, for instance, C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorDesktop[2508 Howell Jan-Apr 2008.xls] would be the contents of a cell or the ability to click on a cell and have it bring up an open dialog box to browse to the file and input it's path into that cell.

Link Employee Workbooks To Master

May 31, 2008

I am trying to put together a small rota/hours manager. I would like each employee to have their own workbook file and update it everyday. Then I would like to have a master workbook which reads each workbook and returns the data inside the workbooks when opened or on the press of a button. I have looked at paste special and other linking ways, but couldnt quite get them to work. Is it possible for the master workbook to keep the data retrieved in date order and then perform a calculation for each row/employee to calculate that days wages. (rate of pay stored in Pay_Rate sheet.) Finally, if there is an easy solution would it matter if the employee spreasheets were password protected?

External Workbook Link With Dynamic Cell Reference

Feb 24, 2014

I currently have a file that is linked to an external workbook that is referencing a certain cell from a certain tab. The below is what Column A & B look like right now. What I'm wanting to know is is there a way to have the formula in Column B automatically reference the name in Column A (which is the tab name in the external workbook) instead of having to manually change the formula when the value in Column A changes?

In other words, I want everything in the external reference formula to remain the same except have the person's name change dynamically...

Copying Data From Different Workbooks In A Dynamic Way

Dec 19, 2008

I have a spreadsheet that requires data from different workbooks.But the names of the workbooks are to be received as user input and used dynamically to copy data from that workbook to original workbook.

To make it easier,let me use this example.

I have a workbook named original.xls.It has a command button or any other control.When i click that control it will ask for a workbook name of the project which is in the second column of the "original.xls" workbook.As soon as i enter the workbook name it will copy data from that workbook to the rest of the columns in my "original.xls" workbook.Then it has to ask to ask for second workbook name and do the same procedure till it encounters a blank row.

Dynamic Open/Close Of Workbooks Crashes

Dec 15, 2009

I'm working on developing a stock option trading system in Excel using a live data feed and VBA. It tends to crash after running flawlessly for a half hour to 2 hours. It seems to crash when loading a support workbook, so I was hoping you could take a peek at my code and see if there's a problem with the way I'm dynamically opening/closing workbooks.

In order to cope with limitations in the amount of live data that I'm accessing (through DDE with Reuters Station), I've split up the data I need into about 600 workbooks, which open when they're needed or close when they're not (through VBA). At any given time, about 35-40 of these workbooks are open.

The main workbook that uses all this live data and support workbooks is set to have the application recalculate every 5 seconds (automatic recalc crashes the program almost immediately). After that refresh, it calls other subroutines, including opening/closing these support workbooks:

Combining Multiple Cells In Multiple Worksheets In Multiple Workbooks Into One Table

Jan 6, 2009

I'm currently doing a survey using an excel workbook that contains multiple questions across multiple worksheets using radio buttons linked to certain cells.

I have around 400 workbooks coming back to me, so what i want to do is take specific values from across many worksheets within each workbook and combine them into a large master table in a seperate workbook.

I've tried using VBA, but not being very proficient at it i've hit a brick wall with that, so i'm hoping that there is an easier way to do it than what i'm currently pursuing.

Running Multiple Modules Across Multiple Workbooks With Multiple Sheets

Feb 19, 2012

I've got data being scraped from a site, putting 1 new workbook in a folder each day

each workbook has 40 sheets in it.

i need to run 5 modules in sequence on a sheet then loop to the next sheet and run the same 5 modules.

ive writen all the modules, and can loop them through the sheets in sequence but i cant work out how to loop them through the each workbook in the folder..

is there an easy way to do this or can it not be done because it would need access to the folder that holds all the wordbooks which lives outside of excel on the desktop ?

Consolidate All Data In Multiple Worksheets Of Multiple Workbooks In One Master File?

Jul 12, 2014

I need a macro that would consolidate all data in multiple worksheets of multiple workbooks in one Master file.

All the workbooks will be in one particular folder. The macro should search for data in all the workbooks and consolidate it in one master excel workbook.

I am currently using both excel 2007 and excel 2010. This macro would really reduce manual work as currently consolidating data from 45 to 50 sheets takes an ample amount of time...

Sum Across Multiple Tabs, Multiple Criteria

Aug 26, 2009

Excel 2007

My workbook contains 13 tabs - 1,2,3,...12, and Summary

My data starts on line 4 of every sheet but varies in length - so far the longest goes to line 30.

Rows used on all 13 sheet are as follows:
A - contains facility names
B - contains a two or three letter code
C - contains hours
D - contains dollars
E - contains adjusted rate

On the Summary tab I have listed all the facilites and two or three letter codes. I need to sum column "C" on tabs 1-12 when they match columns A & B on the summary tab. I have tried the following but can't get them to work:

=IF($A5=""," ",SUMPRODUCT(--('1:[12]12'!A$4:$A$50=$A5),--('1:[12]12'!B$4:$B$50=$B5),'1:12'!D$4:$D$50))
I did not put the [12] excel added that automatically I had 1:12

=SUMPRODUCT(--(THREED('1:12'!$A$4:$A$50)=A10)*(THREED('1:12'!$B$4:$B$50)=B10),(THREED('1:12'!C4:C50)))
I just seen the THREED for the first time today and am not sure if this was the correct place to try but it didn't work anyway

Summing Data From Multiple Workbooks Based On Multiple Criteria

May 14, 2014

I track distribution using 1 workbook for each sales rep. Each workbook has a separate worksheet (scorecard) for each of their locations showing which of our products are used in that location, for various functions. Each of the locations has a segment (bar, nightclub, casual dining, etc.), and a class (AA, A, B, etc.). All of the scorecards are identical, and are in the same file folder on our shared drive.

Sample:

Location A Class:AA Segment: Sports Bar Rep: John Smith

Product: Product X Product Y Product Z
Well: 1 0 0
Back Bar: 0 1 0
Cocktail Menu: 0 1 1

I was unable to find an HTML maker so this is not an actual sample but what I'm looking at. The above data indicates that for location A (Sports Bar, Class AA), Product X is used as the well, Product Y is on their back bar and their cocktail menu, and Product Z is not used at this location at all.

I need to set up an analytic workbook where I can sum data based on multiple and grouped criteria, and for multiple reps ie- display a scorecard that shows totals for nightclubs and sports bars, class AA, A, and B, for a particular rep; OR display a scorecard that shows totals for nightclubs, class A for a group of reps. Ideally I would like to do this using drop down menus that allow the user to select multiple criteria in each of the drop downs, having the data auto-populate based on those selections.
