Linking Cells Globally To Allow Users Ability To Change Cells On Separate Sheet / Cells?
Feb 18, 2014
I have a workbook that uses the values that a user had entered into 3 cells to calculate multiple other charts/diagrams on multiple sheets within the workbook. Each sheet would show what the user had entered in the 3 cells to allow them to see what is being used to calculate each table. Is it possible to link these cells so that the user can change the 3 values without having to go back to where he originally entered the 3 values?
For example, a user has entered in 3 values in Sheet 1. A formula in Sheet 2 displays what is entered by the user and uses these calls in Sheet 2 for calculations. When the user wants to change the three values, he would have to navigate to Sheet 1 and enter in the new values to have the workbook recalculate all the tables. Is there a way to link the three cells from Sheet 1 and Sheet 2 so when the user is on Sheet 2, he has the opportunity to change the values on the current Sheet without having to navigate to Sheet 1 to do so?

Locking text in cells but not the ability to change colour of cells
******** width="234" height="60" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0"
marginheight="0" vspace="0" hspace="0" allowtransparency="true" scrolling="no" id="aswift_0" name="aswift_0" style="left: 0px; position: absolute; top: 0px;">*********>
I have a spreadsheet where I can change the colour of a cell by clicking the mouse, I also have text in many of the cells.
What I need to do is protect (lock) the text so that no one can change the text in any of the cells, but I still want to be able to change the colour of the cells by clicking the mouse in that cell.

I have a spreadsheet that is very large and formated a certain way. I want to make sure that a user cant put the cursor in the lower left corner and copy cells by dragging, copy & paste, or do anything other than input data and be able to highleght text and reinput data in case they mistyped or misspelled the data.
ex: user clicks on cell E33 and types in '1234568' and then move to next cell. The user can click back on E33 and can correct by retyping. That is all the user is allowed.
The cells in question are also in ranges if this helps. EX: 'E33:AJ67'

I'm wondering if there is a way of linking to cells by looking up part of the link in another cell. E.g.In Sheet1, cell A1, i have some data that I want link to from Sheet2. Normally I'd do that by using "=Sheet1!A1" in the cell in Sheet2.
But I'd like to lookup the "A1" part of the link from two different cells in Sheet 2. Something like: =Sheet1!(Text from B1 in Sheet2 AND Text from A2 in Sheet2)
or: =Sheet1!(Sheet2!B1&Sheet2!A2). So that if Sheet2!B1 would contain an "A", and Sheet2!A2 would contain a "1" the resulting link would be the correct "=Sheet1!A1"

I am trying to create a sheet which captures the Worked hrs for users in various cells. The SUMPRODUCT does not seem to be working for me .
Attached is the sample sheet which i would like to get the SUM using SUMPRODUCT.
Col D under Data Sheet has the names and these are repetitive. The Hrs / min in column E & F (Regular Hrs) & Additional Hrs / min under H & I.
I would like to have the Regular hrs + minutes to SUM up against each individual and displayed in consolidated under Col D (Regular hrs) & Col E (Additional Hrs).
I am using Excel 2010 and when i have used the same formulae in 2003 it worked. Not sure why it is not working in 2010.

I use Excel 2003. I need help building a macro, please, that will copy data to a specific page in another workbook based on two criteria. Here's the deal:
The data in Workbook A, Sheet 1, Cell A1 may contain the word ALPHA, BAKER, or CHARLIE. Cell A2 may contain the number 1, 2, or 3. Cell B1 contains the data I want to collect from various Workbook As and keep in a list to analyze.
Over in Workbook B, Sheets 1 through 3 are named ALPHA, BAKER, and CHARLIE. Rows A, B, and C are titled 1, 2, and 3.
How can I copy the data from Workbook A, identified as ALPHA 3, to it's place in Workbook B, Sheet ALPHA, Row C?
Furthermore, Workbook A is a one time form will be used many times. Thus, when I copy B1 to Workbook B, Sheet ALPHA, Row C, I need to paste the data in the first empty cell in the row.

the data is separated by a space between each number value. I am trying to find a way to take the values from Parsed!W6 for example and separate the data into the prices sheet in to different columns. Some cells may be blank.
Example:
PARSED SHEET.

I want to enter a number in cell, select a value from a drop-down list, and have another sheet updated with that info. For example, on sheet1 cell A1 = $900, A2 = Western Region (drop-down list). Sheet2 would have a list of values that would update based on values entered in sheet1:A1 and sheet1:A2. Is this possible using formulas or do I need to use VBA?

I am tracking my sales interactions and am trying to link cells so when I update on one sheet it updates my last "customer touch" on a master sheet. Current formula-
On "sheet1" I selected a cell and used this formula... =sheet2!$b$7
The problem is that I want to keep a history of what was in that sheet 2 B7 cell so i insert a row (making B7 move down and become B8) and enter new info into the new b7. if I go back to sheet1 the formula in the selected cell becomes =sheet2!$b$8 I want it to stay to =sheet2!$b$7 no matter what I do... insert rows, delete rows etc...
in short what i am trying to do is have a cell in sheet1 show my last interaction with the customer and keep a history of in sheet2-infiniti.... with the caveat that my last interaction on sheet 2 etc... is listed first (thus the insert row)

This is a project plan with tasks and dates. Column A is the activity number. (Example 1, 2, 3" etc). Column B is the task (Ex. "Complete Report"). Column C is number of days required to complete the task. Column D is the dependency column. (Ex. Cell D2 =1 in other words Task 2 is dependent on task 1). Column E is the date.
I would like to have a seperate start date cell and a go live date cell.
The objective is to enter a start date, and have each column E date increase based on the number of days entered in Column C. If a task is dependent on another and I change the number of days in Column C I need the dependent task to change the same amount of days.

If this has been requested already, I apologize, please direct me to the right thread and flog me with USB cable. I've been searching the forum for an answer for a couple of hours now for the answer to this:

I have a spreadsheet where a column has many cells being empty and others with values. I need to use copy-paste skip blanks to another column so it only overwrites cells that contains values. BUT The cells in the column appears to be empty, not blank, when I try use the copy-paste skip blanks it doesnt work. However, when I press delete in every empty cell the copy-paste skip blanks works for those cells.
Do you got a fast method to make all the empty cells blank?

I'm trying to use a formula in conditional formatting to highlight a cell red if the cell contains a 0 but the date shown in another cell has passed. I want to copy the formatting throughout a column but I don't want the cell to highlight if there is no date in the other cell concerned.

I have a range (J:M) that contains a conditional formatting with more than 3 conditions. It is based on a script I found on this site but the problem is that the colors don't change unless I edit the cell.
I need to edit all cells in this range at once.
How can I do that? Basically it could do a loop through all cells in the range and "F2+enter" but it seems to be a very "stupid" way to do it.
How can I update the cells in the range in a better way?

I have a sheet (sheet2) that has cells in column L, M and N referencing cells in another sheet (sheet1)(same workbook).
If I delete a row out of Sheet1 it causes the formula in Sheet2 to go to #REF.
Normally the formula would be something like
='Sheet1'!L13
How can I get these formulas to not change just because cells where deleted from Sheet1?

I want to change the fill color of all cells on my sheet, based on the value of one specific cell. In my sheet, I am using cell F1 as the trigger for the change. If the word Blue is in the cell, I want the background color of all cells to be Blue. Likewise for Red and Yellow as well. I don't believe conditional formatting can get this done, as all but the one cell (for this) will be empty.

So I have a worksheet that has a lot of macros in it. I have just barely run into a problem that happens anytime a change a cell in another workbook that I have open. The second workbook I have open isn't even a macro enabled workbook. But for some reason it gives me an error and says I am trying to run this code.
[Code] ....
It gives me the runtime error 9. This code is supposed to run when I click on a combobox in my main workbook but it is running anytime I change something in my other simple workbook. Why this happens and how to stop it? I have had a lot of similar problems in the past but I just dealt with it by only having one workbook open but in this case I will need both.

I am trying to get two cells to be used to adjust other cells on the same sheet repeated times.
In a inventory sheet I have 5 columns as such , A1 previous balance, B1 Qty received, C1 qty on hand, D1 last cost, E1 current avg cost What I want, is to be able to enter my weekly received items in the B1 Qty received and the new cost in D1 Last cost cells and have them calculate my current average E1 and update my qty on hand C1 total. This in itself is not the biggest challenge. I was asking if there is a way that after the E1 current average cost and C1 qty on hand are updated by that formula, that the next time I enter a new B1 qty received and new cost in D1 Last cost cell they will update again basically without changing the earlier calculations achieved .
Example: Today I have item X with a A1 previous balance of 10 , with a D1 last cost of $1, and E1 current avg cost $1
I want to receive B1 10 more today at $.50 D1 last cost, which ideally would end up showing
A1 previous 10 (or 20 if adding) , C1 Qty on hand 20, D1 Last cost .5, E1 current avg $.75
Next week I want to receive B1 10 more at $.25 D1 last cost , which then would update showing
A1 previous balance 10 (or 30 if adding), Qty on hand 30, Last cost $.25 and E1 current avg $.58

I'm trying to separate text from numbers into two separate cells...
Essentially, I would like the users to copy and paste data into Column A, as seen below. Then, hopefully by formula separate the text characters into Column B and the numbers into Column C.
Input: Output 1: Output 2:
Col A Col B Col C
Wells 123 Wells 123
Wells 1234 Wells 1234
Wells Fargo 123 Wells Fargo 123
Wells Fargo 1234 Wells Fargo 1234
Wells Fargo Inc 123 Wells Fargo Inc 123
Wells Fargo Inc 1234 Wells Fargo Inc 1234
Ideally, I would like to do this with a formula...

I have a sheet (sheet1) of around 900 rows with data in columns A-K. Column B contains a unique value.
Sheet2 contains data which needs to be highlighted in sheet1 and each row in identified by a unique value in Column B.
sheet1.PNG
sheet2.png
In sheet 1, I only want to highlight the cell which exists in sheet 2 for the matching reference number in column B. For example, in sheet2, the value 'PM328491CN' exists and the value 'CN' is present in cell c2. I want the cell that contains this value in sheet 1 to be highlighted (cell C6).
So, find the matching reference, the highlight the cell in the row which is present in both sheets.

I'm using Excel '03 and I need to be able to lock certain cells after input, but only for certain users on my network. Ideally, I (administrator), would still be able to edit the cells in case of a mistake or whatever reason. I want the other users limited to adding information and not editing the existing information in a range. I would need this applied to several columns (B, C, I, and K) if this is possible.
