Linking Font Size Changes
Jan 13, 2009This probably sounds really weird, but does anyone know whether the size of the text in Cell A1 on Sheet 1 can be linked to the size of the text in Cell B2 on Sheet 2? Like, when I change the size of Cell A1's text, is there a way to have the size of Cell B2's text change as well?

Aug 31, 2012I have a range of cells that change colors with conditional formats based on the cell value from high to low. I would like to link the cell color to an object such as a circle or rectangle. When the cell value changes along with the conditional format, the color of the object will also change.

May 28, 2009I am having difficulty with a Windows Media Player (WMP) object in my spreadsheet. I go to design mode and set the desired size of the object in the spreadsheet; I then save and exit. Next time I open the file the object is much smaller. In fact every time I open the spreadsheet; save the spreadsheet and exit it gets smaller and smaller!
How I can LOCK the bugger in place - ideally by using the corner points of the cells - For example Top Left Corner of A1 to Bottom Right Corner of T36.
Linking Cell To Row When Clicked?
Jul 16, 2014When I am in my workbook and I click on a cell in a worksheet I would like to be able to have the row highlight when I click a cell, instead of trying to manually find it which at times I get lost with all the data on these sheets. Now my workbook is completed and all my formulas are done. Just trying to fine tune my databases with being able to do the "click this cell and the row highlights where I need to be" If this is possible I would like to do this for all 3 databases.

Oct 18, 2008this have bothered me for a long time. I'm not a very good excel user, so it's probably a piece of cake for some here ^^; This table;
Student Test1 Test2 Test3
a 13
b 16
c 19
d 9
e 15
etc...
Later in the document I want to show WHO scored highest on each test in another table;
Best Student Points
Test1 19
Test2
Test3
The points are easy to figure out, even for me, just use the "MAX" function. But how do I make excel tell me "c" under "best student"? Ofcourse I want it to be a function so that it'll change when I set 20 on student a.

Cell Linking Displayed In Text
Sep 21, 2009I am trying to have a cell in a diffrent work sheet display information from another sheet.
I entered ='Weapons Table'!A48 and it is displaying in text not what is actually in that cell.
on the cell above it I have entered ='Weapons Table'!A47 and it displays fine.
I've tried typing = then just clicking the cell, and it is still just displaying it as text. I've spent 3 days on this sheet and have only 1 error, that is driving me crazy.
Linking Label Of Worksheet To Cell?
Apr 29, 2013I have a workbook with 6 tabs/worksheets. Each of the first four is a different product or quarter. Tab 5 is a consolidated data report that links data from individual tabs 1-4 in rows and columns for comparison purposes. Consider Tabs/Worksheets 1-4 to be quarters (ie. 1Q, 2Q, 3Q, 4Q). What I want is for the Column Headers in Tab 5 (the consolidated data report) to be pulled from the NAME of the Tab/Worksheet it is pulling the data from. Not an individual cell, but the name of the worksheet itself so that others can change their worksheet labels and those changes are reflected in the consolidated report.

Linking Partial Cell Data
Jan 5, 2009I have two cells on Sheet 1 - Cell A1 and Cell A2.
Cell A1 is the first cell that will receive either a number, or nothing. When it receives a number, the number will always contain five digits. (For example: '23456'.)
The contents of Cell A2 depend on the contents of Cell A1 - If Cell A1 contains a five digit number, then Cell A2 will display that same five-digit number with '-1' following it. (In our case: '23456-1'.) If Cell A1 contains no number, then Cell A2 will just be another ordinary cell allowing the user to enter whatever he/she desires.
The extension in Cell A2 should remain editable at all times - if the user wishes to change the '-1' to a '-2', for example, he/she should be able to do so without any error messages appearing. However, the user must not be able to change any of the first five digits in Cell A2 as long as Cell A1 contains data. A message should appear stating that changes to the first five digits should be performed in Cell A1 - which would then change Cell A2 accordingly.
Also, if the contents of Cell A1 are erased for any reason, Cell A2 should keep the five digit number, but lose whatever '-x' extension it contained.
Can this be done using Data Validation?
Linking Picture In Excel Cell?
Oct 14, 2012I am making a spreadsheet which would have the record of the audit that i am doing on my patients. Along with other details i want to give link of the routine followups of their disease picture in their specific spreadsheet cell. I have searched the internet about it where i have come to know about hyperlinking. However, my concern about hyperlinking is that i want the spreadsheet with pictures to be portable to other PCs which wouldn't be possible with hyperlinking. Also including the pictures in the spreadsheet would be very troublesome as the size would enormously increase once the data continues to grow.I want to include photos in column L, R, V, Z & AD.

Linking To Workbooks Whose Filename Is In A Cell
May 9, 2006One folder on the drive contains excel files, which are created daily from a template. I use these files, the 20 most recent days' worth, to create an analysis file. This new file is organized in rows, starting with the date. The files I am using are all saved in the form "Stats yyyy mm-dd.xls" The first line of each row of the analysis spreadsheet starts with the date, in the format "yyyy mm-dd". Is it possible to create a macro, or in another way, for the analysis spreadsheet to automate the reading-in of data from these different files?

Basically i created to buttons; one is a fixed button "MemFeeFix1" that will copy a value into 11 other cells because these values represent months in a year. Ie: Chamber Expense $12 so then i click the option button under the Fixed Column then it copies it into then next 12 months. I couldnt fit my worksheet as it is too big. Anyways i have another button "MemFeeVar1" in the Varable Column and if click variable then it places a "0" into the following 11 months.....
Object Library Invalid Or Contains References To Object Definitions
Jan 17, 2005I'm getting the following error:
"Object library invalid or contains references to object definitions that could not be found"
I wasn't getting that error last night and I'm not sure what I may have done to cause this error.
It seems to be cause by code running on one sheet of my workbook, but I'm not really sure about that. I'm still a bit of a novice at VBA.
I'm using Excel 2002 SP3 and I'm running MS XP Home as my OS.
Do you have any ideas what can cause this error and/or how to trace down the offending objects/code?

Linking Dynamically To Other Workbook In Directory Specified In Cell?
Mar 6, 2014Using Dropbox, a lot of people will fill in formulas in personal workbooks from using data from another, central workbook. Since I cannot control where they install Dropbox or where they keep their personal workbooks, I must account for that in functions.
Now, my idea is to make them define the directory of the source in their personal workbook in a specific cell and then using that as a basis for the rest of the functions.
Example
Cell A1: C:Usersuser1Dropboxfolder (copy paste from path in Windows Explorer)
Cell B1: A1&[CentralWorkbook.xlsx]SheetName'!$H$1
Basically I want the unknowing user to copy-paste the path of the central workbook into a specific cell in their own workbook and then build my functions bsed on that. How can this be done?

Sep 25, 2012I have values on master sheet and want to link those values to source documents in the same workbook. But the values on master sheets are made up of more than one value on another sheet.
For example on master sheet I have $137,000 that is made up of values in P7 + Q7 + P57 + Q57 on source sheet. If user wants to see where this number is coming from; the user will click the number to go to source document.
On a single valve I linked to the source sheet to a single cell. One thing I was thinking, using conditional format, so if one of the cells is selected in source document the other cells that combine the total of the master sheet cells should be highlighted, just my 2 cents.

Linking Named Cell Ranges Within A Formula
Mar 2, 2007This is what i have tried in a forumla:
=IF(ISERROR(IF(Search1="","No Place Found",INDEX(LocationsANDLocations2,MATCH("*"&Search1&"*",LocationsANDLocations2,0)))),"No Place Found",IF(Search1="","No Place Found",INDEX(LocationsANDLocations2,MATCH("*"&Search1&"*",LocationsANDLocations2,0))))
But its not finding anything on the second table, being LocationsTable2.
LocationTable is about 65500 rows, and next to it another row of 65500.
What is the best method of linking the them, so it can search for matched text in each cell, so it looks in LocationsTable then LocationsTable2 and so on.
Restricting Size Of A Cell
Mar 19, 2007I have a cell in a spreadsheet which has a lot of text entered. The spreadsheet needs to be used by another application (Business Objects).
My problem is that I need to limit the number of characters entered in the cell to 255 characters. I know I can use Data, Validation to limit the text length, but this only works once all the data has been entered, then a message is displayed.
My ideal soulution would be:
When a user is entering text and has reached my 255 character limit, no more text can be entered;
or
When a user is entering text and has reached my 255 character limit, the text automatically continues in the next cell.
A not so elegant solution (but a usable) would be:
A character counter to let the users know when 255 characters have been reached.
Controlling Cell Size
Feb 27, 2007Imagine a rectangular box, with a horizontal line across it, drawn using excel cells.
This is a representation of a screen that comes in 2 sections - sometimes the upper section is largest, sometimes the lower. (Sky above, land below for example)
Is there a way to draw and control the position of the line in this box, , so that by adding a numeric value in two adjecent cells, for example 75 25 would give more "sky" (the line towards the bottom) and 25 75 would give more "land" (The line towards the top)?
Linking And Formatting Cells With Numbers And Text In One Cell?
May 16, 2013I have one cell with $20,000 hard coded (cell A1). In another cell I want the cell to say "20,000 Capital Raise" (cell B1). And i want B1 to link to A1 so that if i change the number in A1 it will also change in B1.
Here's what i have in B1 so far: ="$"&J6&" Capital Raise"
This produces "$20000 Capital Raise" in cell B1.
So the only thing i'm trying to figure out is how to get the comma in the $20,000 so it will read "$20,000" instead of "$20000".
