Making HLookup Formula Dynamic?
Jun 20, 2014
I'm currently using an HLookup formula to create an output tab for a huge set of input data, but whenever I add new rows to the input tab, I have to adjust the formulas for each individual output cell.
For example, my output formula is currently "=HLOOKUP(B$4,'Inputs'!$B$2:$BJ$384,116,FALSE)," but if I add a new row to the input data, I have to adjust the table array and the row number for the formula. So, if I added a row before the 116th row, but wanted the output to be the same for this cell, I would have to update the formula to "=HLOOKUP(B$4,'Inputs'!$B$2:$BJ$385,117,FALSE).
Is there any way to adjust this formula so that it will automatically update to produce the same output without manually updating the formula each time I edit the number of input rows? Would an index/match formula work, and if so, what would it look like?

I want to take some data which is dynamic and make it static elsewhere in a workbook without doing a manual copy of the said data. Is this even possible?
For example, let's say Sheet1!A1 is the dynamic data I am using, and on Sheet2!A1 I want to replicate this data, I know I can just reference Sheet1!A1. However, this would make Sheet2!A1 dynamic, and I want it to be static. I know I can do this be just typing it in manually but I have a lot of data I would need to do this for, is there some way of making Sheet2!A2 static whilst still referencing Sheet1!A1?

I am looking for a quick way to create a number charts using data from multiple sheets.
I have 12 sheets Apr - Mar that contain data in identical format. I also have sheets 12 sheets Apr Charts - Mar Charts, I need to create a number of charts on each sheet for the relevant month. To avoid having to create a ridiculous number of charts, I thought I would try to dynamically change the chart data series based on a value in say cell A1.
For example if cell A1 of the Apr Charts sheet = Apr, the chart will show the data for Apr.
The idea is that I can copy the Apr Charts sheet the required number of times and replace the value in A1, and my charts will update dynamically. I need to have seperate sheets for each of the monthly charts.

I have the following code as part of my macro. What I was wondering is a) Can anyone think of a way to shorten this? and b) I currently have this exact code copied 8 times, I did a find and replace to change 'if year = 2003 then' to the year 2010. What I would like is to have 1 code that will automatically change depending on the year the user inputs in a cell. (I should mention that 'Year' is a cell on my input sheet where the user types in the year they are currently working on and the macro automatically runs)
'2003
Sheets("Cash Crops").Select
If Year = 2003 Then
' This copies the cash crop BPU's.
ActiveSheet.Unprotect
Workbooks.Open Filename:="F:xdataCAISCAIS spreadsheetsBPU's.xls"
Application.Goto reference:="Cash03"
Selection.Copy
Windows(Filename).Activate
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=21
Application.Goto reference:="CashCrops"
ActiveSheet.Paste
ActiveWindow.SmallScroll Down:=-30
Range("A2").Select
Application.CutCopyMode = False

Basically i have a list of data for example from B2 to B2000 for which i want to calc a standard deviation across however the number of data points in the standard deviation need to be dynamic.
For example in Cell a1 i can enter 150 it will then calc the standard div across the first 150 data points (points 1 to 150) then in the cell below calculate the next standard div.
Standard Div Points10
Data PointData ListStandard div
10.167442459
20.539073451
30.29740845

I have this table listed below that I want to automatically populate the score cell when i enter a new Cost of Poor Quality price. I have a lookup function to decide what score should be placed =LOOKUP(A2,{0,1001,5001,10001},{4,3,2,0}). I just don't know how to make the table dynamic to account for new entries while keeping the Lookup function working. T

i'm trying to use HLookup to find an adjusted midterm grade that's given. but i have some conditions:
If student missed exam and has a zero keep zero.
If student has a grade of 1-119 points, increase their grade 40 points.
If student has a grade of 120-125 points, increase their grade 35 points.
If student has a grade of 126-131 points, increase their grade 31 points.
If student has a grade of 132-139 points, increase their grade 27 points.
with these conditions, if my midterms grade is 120, how would i calculate it using HLookup? i worked on it but i keep getting the #NA! error.
=H4+HLOOKUP(H4,B24:D25,2).

I am trying to import a BASE ESTIMATE table into EXCEL.
I have problems with most of the formulas, especially this one:
=VLOOKUP($E$2,$B$24:$P$604,HLOOKUP($E$3,$D$22:$L$604,1)+2)*HLOOKUP(HLOOKUP($E$3,$D$22:$L$604,1),$D$2 2:$L$23,2)
and this one
=ROUND((IF(AND(OR(E7>E5,E7>E6),E3<40000),E7,IF(AND(E6<E5,E3<40000),E6,E5)))*E8*1.055*1.06,2)+10
I am not sure if EXCEL allows a HLOOKUP within an HLOOKUP. If not, how can I get around this?

I pulled a set of financial statements from a database into Excel. All of the values are hard coded but I would like to make them dynamic, while maintaining the original content. For example, If cell C3 is a revenue figure for 2012 ($1,000) I would like to link it to cell C5, which will be a currency conversion rate (2.0). So I would like cell C3 to read =1000*C5, which would equal 2000, and for cell D3 to equal 2013 sales*D5, etc. I would also like this to go across a specified range so that I can also change operating expenses, taxes, etc over a number of columns (dates) that I define, all linking to the conversion rate for the given year. Having another tab where you link and anchor is an option but I would prefer something in VBA where I can qickly include this functionality with new workbooks that I download.
I am using Excel 2010.

Following is an example of an HLOOKUP formula I'm using:
=HLOOKUP(A1,$B$2:$E$5,4,FALSE)
The problem I'm having is that if a user inserts a row within the range B2:E5, then it throws my lookup formula out, because the formula should now be looking at row 5 and not row 4. How do I get the number 4 in the formula to be a variable that always selects the last row of the specified (variable) range?

Trying to do the following and getting an error:
BE18= UK_GBP
=HLOOKUP(Table4[[#This Row],[parent_product_line]],CONCATENATE(BE18,"!")$B$11:$DK$65,4,FALSE)
The CONCATENATE function casues the function to error and highlight the $B$11... array section
I have a table with each row representinginformation about a product a customer owns. I've added columns where I'm using the HLOOKUP function to go to another sheet in the workbook to find the products price. The issue is there are a dozen different pricebook worksheet's becasue of various parts of the work. I've added a column which displays the right pricebook sheet name now I'm just trying to get it that value into the HLOOKUP formula to be the shetname portion of the array value.

This will take a mixture of at least HLOOKUP and Average
I have a table of 2 columns; 1 column is dates from Jan. 1st to Dec 31st; 2nd column is inches of rain on each day. Several are 0 inches but I am needing to take the the average of each month of only the days that have greater than 0 inches of rain.
Getting the average of each month is easy but canceling out the 0 inch days is throwing me off right now.

I have 2 sheets in a work book. In the first sheet in A27 I have a value. In the secend sheet I have a formula "=SHEET1!$A$27".
Problem is when I insert a new row in sheet 1 the formula in sheet 2 changes to "=SHEET1$A$28" and I want the formula in sheet 2 to stay the same that is, always =SHEET1!$A$27.

I am trying to get 2 different formulas to run depending on the value of the 2 cells.
Example: if cell "A" is equal to cell "B" then one formula, if it is different than a second formula.
I hope I did this right, if not please let me know and I will ask the question in a different manner.

I have a chart with blank values in some cases. I have set up the chart to show those values as gaps, which relies on the blank cell being empty. However, my blank cells have a formula along the lines of: if (condition,value,"")
So the chart does not consider them blank, presumably either because the formula is in there, or because "" is not the same as blank. How can I make this cell appear blank for the purposes of the chart?

I have a spreadsheet that I use to track my stocks. I have installed a third party add-in that goes out to the internet and grabs various stock information. But, when you are pulling info on about 30 stocks and getting info like name, price, dividend, div pay date and such, it slows the spread sheet down tremendously. Is there a way to keep the value in the cell and change it only during a certain time period such as 5 minutes before the top of the hour to five minutes after the top of the hour.

At the moment if a pupil has done foundation listening then I write their numerical result in, for example C3 or if they have done higher listening I write it in F3 (and it works out the UMS and then the grade), but I wondered if there would be any way to just put a dropdown menu in a column for each name, or change it so that I can type in H or F that will change which data is used? Because the UMS and grades are different depending on whether the pupil has done higher or foundation I am unsure how to format it

As I am a fresh user of excel 2007 I do not know how hard it is to solve the problem I am facing but hopefully there is a solution that the readers here are willing to share with me.
I have a list of **-s that I have recorded as a hobby with my friends (karaoke, free concerts...) and I have them coded in a specific way, so that I can find them on a shelve easily. The list is built up in a form that is seen on the example file that I added.
So far I have used my own handwriting and a sticker to label my ** boxes. Itīs not a very good looking combo to be honest. Since I already have all the data in my excel tabel it would be good to use excel to take all the things from there and just print it out.
How to do that? The front cover is easy, I used VLOOKUP function. All I have to do is enter a number into the column C1 and the front label gets filled.
The problem for me is the back cover that should take the right track nr, title and length from several rows (VLOOKUP uses only one row at a time)? How to make it work, that excel would know that on the first album there are 3 tracks and when chaging a number in C1 there would be 2 tracks on a second one.

I am making a 'sports day' spreadsheet for a project and i have one problem, the spread sheet is meant to have the possiblitlity of mistakes reduced to a minimum.
I have 6 teams in the sports day and under each i put 1st, 2nd,3rd,4th,5th,6th.
[url]
basically i need the rows to only accept 1st 2nd 3rd..... only once. I need something like an error message to come up if a value is entered twice on a row.

I have a decent working knowledge of excel, but I'm stuck... I teach and I have created an excel spread sheet to help me keep track of grades, attendance, etc.
I'm trying to figure out how to get excel to figure out the assignments a student has missing (cells with no data input), then take the assignment name (column title with missing data) and students name (first column of data) and put that information in another worksheet. Basically I would like excel to tell me what students are missing work and what assignments they are missing so I don't have to scroll through hundreds of lines of data whenever I have midterms or a student wants a list of "missing assignments". BTW---I can get it to list the number of assignments a student has missing, but not list the specific assignment titles.
I know theoretically this is possible, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to do it. Any help would be appreciated as it will save a lot of time and help out my students! If you can give me a "fake" formula, I should be able to update it for my purposes...

I have set up a formula to sum data from specific columns in multiple sheets in the same file. The simple formula had worked perfectly until I needed the data from the last sheet. In all of the other sheets the data that I need to pull is all in consecutive rows but in the last sheet the data that I need pulled and added is in every 4th row. The sheet looks like this:
All of the columns I've filled in work fine. The ones blank are the ones I am running into issues with. When I drag down the formulas excel pulls the next consecutive rows, which is perfect for the first four sheets I am summing, but for the fifth sheet (I'll ref the Test1 column) I need it to pull 'Wayne 2014'!C6 and then 'Wayne 2014'!C10 in the next row and so forth.

I am having trouble creating a dynamic forumla in VBA. I used concatetnate to create a dynamic formula (below):
VB:
Sheets("Monthly Snapshot").Select
Range("L7").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _
[Code]....
But - this is now the formula stored in the macro. So everytime I run the macro I get this exact same formula, not the new formula I created with the previous action. How can I get this new formula to show in the macro, or just have the macro convert the text in the cell into a formula by deleting the " ' " charcter on the front?

I have a large spreadsheet file with numerous worksheets.
Each sheet represents one month of the year and is named Jan05, Feb05, Mar05
etc.
In the "Summary" sheet I want to automatically reference a range in the
other sheets.
For example:
In the Summary sheet column A, I have the sheet names:
Jan05
Feb05
Mar05
etc.
In column B, (let's use B5 as an example) I want a formula that reads
something like:
=B4 + Apr05!C7
This seems simple enough, but how can I write a formula that 'automatically'
enters the sheet name (i.e. "Apr05") in the formula?
The row containing the data for Apr05 is only created when that month comes
along, in order to keep the file size as small as possible at any time.

I have a dynamic range formula that refers to a list that I've set up in row 65 of my sheet. Each time I go to the cell the has the data validation referred to in this range, the drop down list shows the list from the last entry and with more spaces than needed. =OFFSET('GROCERIES AMEX'!$E$65,0,0,COUNTA('GROCERIES AMEX'!$E:$E)-15,1)
The " -15" is the number that varies all the time. Is there any way to remedy this so the formula behaves as if the list was located in Row 1?

I am working with a dynamic range on sheet name "DataPrep", the named range is "TGSDataSourceRange".
I need a formula that will look from row 2 down to the last row for columns "A-H".
The purpose is to identify the active range. I think the function is "Counta", but I can't get it right.

I have a spreadsheet that imports data from a database and into pivot. Several departments use that spreadsheet, but depending on the department, they may want to see e.g. 3, 4 or 5 different fields than other departments.
My spreadsheet also includes a great number of formulas included in a macro, so whenever I get a request to include field X, Y and Z, I end up spending a lot of time adjustning all my formulas to reference the new fields.
