Skipping Certain Cells When Dragging Down

Sep 19, 2013

I'm looking to easily drag the sum of certain cells in a different column BUT keeping a specific range, it's hard to explain so i'll show an example...

A1
A2
A3
A4
A5
A6
A7
A8
B1=SUM(A1:A4)
B2=SUM(A4:A7)
B3=SUM(A8:A11)

And so on...

Is there any way I can do this by dragging down the cell formula from B1 and it remembering the range of 4, so I don't have to manually select each range...?

Dragging Down Formulas With Inconsistent Cells

Jun 11, 2008

How figure out how to drag down a formula that looks like this for the first three cells (C3:C5)?

=(SUMPRODUCT(Polls!D2:D5,Polls!B2:B5))/(SUM(Polls!B2:B5))
=(SUMPRODUCT(Polls!D8:D11,Polls!B8:B11))/(SUM(Polls!B8:B11))
=(SUMPRODUCT(Polls!D14:D17,Polls!B14:B17))/(SUM(Polls!B14:B17))
...etc. 

Is there a way to let Excel know that I'm adding six to each cell, rather than it automatically adding one?

Dragging Formulas: Replicate A Formula In Cells

Feb 11, 2009

If I need to replicate a formula in some cells, I usually drag it down or sideways. Is there any easier way to do this? I have large numbers of cells into which to drag the formula. Can I specify which cell range the formula is applicable to (i.e. A1:A10,000 or something) instead of dragging? If so how?

How To Change Reference Cells Specific Amount When Dragging

Aug 14, 2014

So I'm dragging my formula down one cell and as expected the reference cell changes the same amount when I really want the reference to shift Down that column 11 cell so when I take my formula

=IF(ISERROR(LOOKUP(21474836472147483647,'Revenue Book'!L5:L11)),"",(LOOKUP(21474836472147483647,'Revenue Book'!L5:L11)))

when I drag it down one cell the reference should look like this

=IF(ISERROR(LOOKUP(21474836472147483647,'Revenue Book'!L16:L22)),"",(LOOKUP(21474836472147483647,'Revenue Book'!L16:L22)))

Dragging Cells Changes Range In Formula Of Locked Cell?

Feb 19, 2014

I have a workbook with multiple sheets interacting with one another. On one of them the user is prompted to make lists of expenses in multiple columns. The column labels are in row one, and row two has the sums of all the cells below. I have every sheet in the workbook protected, so that only the cells that need to be modified are unlocked. The problem is that the user can drag cells around and change the range of the functions in row two (locked cells).

For example, A2 has the function =sum(A3:A100). But if the user drags the values in A3:A5 to A6:A8, the formula in A2 changes to =sum(A6:A100). Is there anyway that I can allow the user to drag cells (this could be a useful feature), but keep the formulas in the second row fixed?

Excel 2007 :: Dragging And Inputting Cells Into Numerical Order

Mar 25, 2014

Excel 2007. At the bottom of a column of data I'm trying to reference the cell $AG4. There are 340 total columns. Each additional column to the right needs to reference the next cell in column AG. So I'm trying to drag and copy horizontally from $AG4 to $AG340. When I try just the single column it just copies $AG4 into everything to the right. When I have to columns ($AG4 and $AG5) and grab both to try to copy horizontally the numbers increasing it just does $AG4, $AG5, $AG4, $AG5, etc.

Excel 2007 :: Appending Sheet Number Automatically By Dragging Cells In Formula

Jul 12, 2011

appending excel sheet number in a formula. Here is the example.

In an excel book, I have sheets 1 to 50. In each sheet i have a standard format to enter the details. And in one sheet I want to keep some summary with required cells. I made a table by applying formula, for example in cell A1 i kept formula ='9'!$D$9. In this '9' refers sheet9. In the similar way i want to capture the data from all sheets.

A1 cell ='9'!$D$9
A2 cell ='10'!$D$9
A3 cell ='11'!$D$9....etc

Is there any formula to append the Sheet number automatically (like dragging the shell) intead changing sheet number manually. because it is wasting so much time.

How To Make Macro To Lock Certain Cells Connected To Another Cells Value Then Copy Daily

Mar 29, 2014

am making Excel for private use, i need the following makro to be active, here is the idea because i didnt yet work with makros at all:

If A1 = False
then Range B1:D1 will be locked cells

If A1 = True
then Range B1:D1 will be unlocked cells

Those rules apply to 1 day in the year.

the range A1:D1 will be copied about 400 so the makro should be active to each day separatly.

Check the picture attached for example of one day

Lock Cells Based On Value Of Other Cells - Code Simplification Query

Apr 22, 2009

I'm using the code below to lock certain cells depending on the value of other cells. The code below deals with one line of my spreadsheet only and as the spreadsheet comprises 38 data entry rows I've repeated this code 38 times in the worksheet module with the appropriate changes to row numbers.

It works, but causes much screen flickering and "thinking". I'm new to vba so no doubt I've made this code too extensive or lengthy or whatever (or just plain wrong).

Can anyone assist with suggestions on how to simplify the code and/or help with code to handle all 38 lines without repeating the routine 38 times?

Lock Empty Cells In Range Based On Other Cells Content

Apr 18, 2008

I am trying to lock the unused cells in 32, 2 column by 7 row named ranges, based on whether or not two cells, above each range are equal or less than each other. In other words while one of the cells is less than or equal to the second cell all cells in the range below should be unlocked, as soon as that condition is no longer true the blank cells need to be locked.

I am trying to use this in the Workbook_Sheetcalculate so that the macro will run automatically.

Lock Certain Cells By Vba

Nov 7, 2006

I am aware of setting protection to certain cells by the Excel Options. which is unlocking the by defalut locked cells and then setting the sheet protect in tools->protection. I want this to be done through VBA code.

i have a template which has text in some cells and some cells are blank, i need to lock the cells which has text and keep the blank cells unlocked for user input. As this is a template it will be copied to another sheet, so i need to retain the protection properties in all new sheets (copied from the template). Attaching the template for which the protection needs to be done.As of now the sheet1 has protection property set through the toolbar properties.

Lock Cells After Done With Formula?

Feb 8, 2014

I use the attached workbook to keep tack of feed use in turkeys. when a new flock is added to a farm (Airport View or Home farm) A template is copied and pasted from the "templates" sheet depending on what type of diet they will be on. (Ralco ABF or Ralco Standard) that template refers to the Ration sheet to calculate how much corn is in each diet. After a flock is complete I will never change the numbers again, it is just for record keeping. I want to be able to change the Corn/ton numbers in a ration (on the rations tab) if need be and not affect all the older completed records.

W3:W300 is a protected range containing formulas returning numbers from one upwards, with two decimal places.

I need some vba to check this range and, if a number greater than 1 is found, to make the corresponding cells in Columns X and Y blank and lock them.

I am assigned to a very tedious task which requires me to lock selectively, cells from Jan through to Dec. Instead clicking the cells and selecting the various options from the menu bar, I would like to do it the other way.

If I want to go locking a cell upon selecting it, what are the VB codings?

When Dragging Formula Down The Formula Skips X Number Of Cells

Jul 22, 2014

Is it possible to write a formula that skips x number of cells and have the formula autoincrement as usual. For an examples lets say I want to skip 3 cells and I have entered in the cells listed:

A1= "1"
A2= "2"
A3= "3"

Then I type in the simple formula in the cell
B1= "=A1"

and then drag down but it skips 3 cells so then

B5= "=A2"

B9= "=A3"

If it didn't skip then
B1= "=A1"
B2= "=A2"
B3= "=A3"

this is just an example as I will be writing more complex formulas and need some thing that I can write into the formula so that it skips.

Something similar to this B1 "=A1(skip3cells)"

Lock Cells For A Certain Time After Entry

Oct 10, 2012

I've got a spreadsheet set up for a simple barcode scanning system. The user scans the barcode of the product when complete, and it logs it to a sheet along with a date & time timestamp. I'm then planning to use a v-lookup (barcode to product name) & pivot-table to count instances of 'product name' so that I can monitor what is being produced easier, nothing too tricky.

The problem I'm having comes from the products of the same spec having the same barcode, so data validation is hard to apply, as I can't 'not allow dupes' - the concern I have is that if the user unknowingly (or knowingly!) scans the same ticket twice, I think I've got 2 of a product when I've only got one. The idea I had was to lock all cells for a set time period (say 1 minute) after an entry so that it couldn't be accidentally scanned twice.

Dynamic Macro To Lock Cells That Contain Any Value

Feb 10, 2014

I'm currently using this macro:

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim Rng
Dim MyCell
Set Rng = Range("A1:AA7672")
For Each MyCell In Rng

[Code] ....

The problem is that it is not dynamic and it's super slow. The larger my range is the slower it operates and right now it's almost unusable.

The workbook I am using gets touched by 10 different people and I want to prevent tampering. I want for the workbook to be, when protected, have all the blank cells editable and once a value is inserted, it cannot be edited again and not work so unbelievably slow.
