Manipulating Links And Formulas

Jun 12, 2006

Is it possible to modify a link so that you can change the link easily by the value of a certain cell.

='[Labour Plan Week 24.xls]Hours'!$E$135 and I want something like ='[Labour Plan Week " &H5& " .xls]Hours'!$E$135. Where H5 contains the week number

Documenting Formulas & Links

Feb 24, 2009

I have a lot of workbooks that contain many formulas which may include links to other worksheets.

Is there a way to produce a sheet in each workbook that shows the formulas on each sheet in the workbook. I would envisige that:
Column A would have the name of the worksheet
Column B the formula
Column C if possible the worksheet that the formula links to.

Copying Files With Links And Formulas?

Aug 5, 2014

I am working on a file that has multiple worksheets with many links, lookups and formulas; some between the worksheets and some external to another Excel file. The plan is to use this file as a template and copy it over and over with new names. Once I save the file as a new name in a new folder on my network, will I lose all these links, lookups and formulas? Or is there a way to maintain the links or do a global change of the formulas (i.e., the original file name is "TEMPLATE" and the new file name is "PROJECT!1")?

Manipulating Sheet

Apr 17, 2008

I am working with excel sheets for dimension population of metrics.

I want to make some process less manual. In one column I am given some values like ((1110 + 1230 + 3120 + SERVSELCT) - (1110.21 + 2110.30))
Based on these values I have to write the expanded form like:

The values that do not include the decimals are known as parents, for which I have to write PCYDYNNOTRANS_1110 and for the values that include a decimal I have to write CCYDYNNOTRANS_1110.21
I have to write this in the adjacent column for all the values I had mentioned above.

I was wondering if there is a way that I can make this less tedious, and I can have a list that would pop up in the adjacent column where I could select which one I should use i.e. either PCYDYNNOTRANS_ or CCYDYNNOTRANS_ and I would have to just copy paste the values.

Manipulating Data

Nov 24, 2008

I'm looking for a formula or code that would take a client's name that appears in one cell, with the last name first then a comma and then the first name, and paste it into another cell with the first name first and then the last name with no comma.

Example: cell A2 contains "Smith, Joseph", cell B2 should have "Joseph Smith". If I need to provide additional information,

Printing & Manipulating Columns

Jan 9, 2009

I have a spreadsheet list in the following format (Note Tax ID would be cell
A1, etc):
A B C

11-03-1880-0069-00-4107S CRYSTAL

This continues downward to cells 6577. I'm looking for a way to carry these three columns over at some point so I can put more data on a single page, thus minimizing the # of pages I will need to print, but yet remain in the proper sequence as established in column B.

Adding To/Manipulating 'if Criteria'

Mar 26, 2009

=IF(AND(B3:ZZ3="Jan",B10:ZZ10>=500000,B13:ZZ13="POST"),"1","0")

And I'm pulling from a spreadsheet that looks like this:

Jan[B3], Jan[C3], Jan[D3]
500,001[B4], 632,000[C4], 992,000[D4]
PRE[B5], POST[C5], POST[D5]

(and the function is calculating how many januarys, greater than 500,000 that are also post).. how do i get it to ADD the amount of fields that meet that crieteria instead of giving me a 1? I want it to say "2" (adding together all that meet those needs)

Manipulating Text Strings

Jan 12, 2010

I have a column filled with names per row. I wanted to standardize it by using the following format.

The comma after the last name is always an indicator to me that it is the last name.

<First Name> <Middle Initial(if any)> <Last Name>

My actual records contains the following:

BIMBO EPPING - OK
AHMAD SADICK - OK
Salana, Laura R - need to be arranged to > Laura R Salana
Cantos, Rhoda Grace J - need to be arranged to > Rhoda Grace J Cantos

Manipulating InputBox Variable

Oct 20, 2009

I have two inputboxes. I want to set the default value of the second inputbox as (effectively) one cell down from the first inputbox entry. In other words, if I type G17 into the first inputbox, I want the second inputbox to then have a default value of G18.

Copying And Manipulating Formula?

Oct 15, 2012

I am unsuccessfully trying to manipulate and copy a formula.

Column A would typically be used as a benchmark for one retailer and have the base price with the other columns simply showing differences in margin etc if the price was changed. This would typically mean the BWP and fixed terms etc would be constant.

However in this circumstance I need to ascertain for different retailers a,b,c,d, etc the shelf price and compare their NTS and % Margin. Whilst I can enter the different prices and change the terms as required, the whole sheet seems to link back to column A rather than simply drawing from the info in each respective column.

a
b
c

Price On Shelf
20.12
20.05
18.87

Shelf Price Excl. GST
17.50
17.43
16.41

Manipulating Data Within A Loop

Jan 25, 2007

I am working on a macro that opens up a workbook, formats the data by moving columns etc and then spits out the data to different workbooks according to a string in col R (M,C,S etc). I am able to split the file into the workbooks, but it copies the whole sheet and not just the visible cells (its working via a filter). I have tried adding code into the loop to basically copy the visible cells to Sheet2 and then delete (or clear) sheet1 so that I only have the relevant data but have very interesting. This is only the first of a few procedures I would like to add within the loop. Ideally I want to have a prompt for the filename and path for each file, and also another procedure to add a number into each seperate file. If I know why I cant get this simple function to run I will, hopefully, be able to add in the other bits!

Function SplitSheets()
On Error Resume Next
Dim ws As Worksheet, source As Range, dest As Range
Dim daily As Worksheet
Dim sType(4) As String
Dim i As Integer
Dim strSaveFileas As String
sType(1) = "M"
sType(2) = "S"
sType(3) = "C"
sType(4) = "N"
Set daily = Worksheets(1)
For i = 1 To 4...................

Manipulating Cell Data When Entered?

Jan 31, 2014

I'm putting together a workbook to keep track of income generated from Contractors (I work in recruitment). I have an existing system that displays margin, hours worked and income (margin * hours) but what I am looking for is a neater solution that would still have the margin column, but when hours are entered into a cell it is factored by the margin and displays income in the same cell.

So to be sure I am describing correctly, I am after a formula that will enable me to

1. Enter a value into a cell (for the hours worked - lets call this B1)
2. Multiplies this value by another cell (a fixed amount, the margin - lets call this A1)
3. Displays this result (B1 * A1) in cell B1, the same cell as the hours were entered in.

Manipulating Worksheet Embedded Into Document

Mar 27, 2008

I am trying to wrap up a project. The project consists of taking the input values from a userform and entering them into various Word documents and Excel workbooks. The procedure is run from Word. I have no issue completing this part.

However, there are a few Word documents that have an Excel worksheet embedded into them. How can I manipulate these worksheets using VBA? I have attached an example for your reference.

I have found out how to get into edit mode, but I still do not know how to actually edit the worksheet.

Manipulating Ranges/arrays With If/then Statements

A B C D

Mike Fax 5 60
John Tel 3 30
Mike Tel 2 30
Mike Fax 1 60
John Fax 1 60

--------------------
hi all, i am faced with the following problem. before i describe the problem, i do not need help with recording a macro or using functions to solve the above problem, i know how to do that.

writing a code from scratch to do the following:

I need a code that will run through the above columns, and IF A=Mike and B=Fax, THEN C*D...so I want to calculate a total for everytime Mike sells a Fax (or a Tel). Column C is quantity, Column D is price.

I am sure this is a simple loop code, but I have spent days trying to figure it out and I can not do it. Recording a macro is useless, because it is too confusing to look at the code and play with it and try to personalize it.

Manipulating Strings Or Split Function

Jan 29, 2010

I have a excel sheet where I have a list of strings seperated by a "-". I am looking to take the particular cell value and swap the characters before the dash with the characters after the dash. So for example:

FG03-FJ04 would become FJ04-FG03
AB02-CD12 would become CD12-AB02 and so forth....

I have tried findling around with the split function but cant seem to get anywhere, does anyone know a tried and tested method of doing this?

Manipulating Chart Source Data With VBA

Aug 8, 2007

I have a chart that I am trying to set up with dynamic data. I have the chart created, but the problem is that I will have a variable number of categories based on the data that is loaded, so I need to use VBA to change the range for the source data and labels on the fly (otherwise, I will end up with 20-50 categories that are all zeroes, putting a bunch of gobbledegook at the top of the chart).

What commands to I need to enter into VBA to get this to work?

I have put a formula in 2 cells to determine based on the current data what the source data values range should be, and what the category labels range should be.

The cell that holds the value range is Graphics!L6, and the cell that holds the labels range is Graphics!L7.

The current values that these cells hold are:

L6:
=Graphics!$J6:$J9
L7:
=Graphics!$K6:$K9
Oh, and the name of the chart is "Chart 1"

What do I need to put into VBA to get the chart to change the data source values and category labels to the ranges I have listed in those 2 cells? (and for that matter, have I listed the ranges correctly in those 2 cells so that they are usable?)

If possible, I would prefer to do this without having to use code to select the chart, because I want the updates to the chart to be invisible to the user.

Manipulating On A Range Of Contiguous Rows Using VBA

Apr 13, 2008

I have a contiguous range of rows starting from row 5. ...It starts from row 5 but could end anywhere below.

The name of my Sheet is Tester.

Now in Tester, columns B,C, and D have numerical values in them. Using VBA, how can put in values in corresponding row of column A.

So if there are values from B1:D39 and B40 onwards is empty, then A1 will have value B1*C1*D1, then A2 will have B2*C2*D2 and so on until A39 = B39*C39*D39

**I need to write the code so the whole process is done fastest.The code may be long but the macro needs to run as fast as possible.

(Also, I remember using Screen.Updating = False when I wrote similar stuff many yrs ago. Would this be useful here?)

Entering, Formatting & Manipulating Data Using Macros

Apr 11, 2008

I would like to give credit and thanks to StephenR for producing the current Macros in use on this spreadsheet.

This was to sort out Raw Data that I get from a database, and with lots of help sort it and format so for a history of this you can look there.

Now I need to enter in some formulas, data from another spreadsheet and cell formatting…

Unsure if all this is possible but am hoping some of it is…

First Thing
The column Run Time has the data in them already this is the time in minutes am looking for a way to put a formula in, that will make them into hours so the formula will read like this “=180/60” this will give the number 3 as the whole number.

Second Thing
Using the whole number that the formula made in the Run Time column, am looking to fill cells with colour, too see what I mean here its best to take a look at my mock up spreadsheet.

Third Thing
Two rows below all the data that gets sorted out I would like to put in two totals, one for Run Time and another for Available Hrs “=SUM (Range)”

Forth Thing
I have data in another spreadsheet that is the Resrce Name, and Available hrs am looking to take that data from this spreadsheet that will be closed opened if needed, this data will assign workers to Work Centres.
I would like this to be a separate macro to run though all the sheets if possible.

Excel 2010 :: Extracting And Manipulating Text From Cells

Sep 16, 2013

This could be a bit complicated, but hopefully also useful for others. We have the following sample of 10 cells from a large file with similar data:

N: 1; B: 162; M: 278, 278; T: 24; A: 103, 105; I: 393; Ḥ: 7240, 7390, 7465, 7546, 7617, 7756, 27399, 8380, 8741, 8894, 8985, 9559, 9671, 9741, 10119, 10211; W: 40; D: 766.
N: 2; B: 246, 889, 1136; M: 255, 255; A: 55; I: 286; Ḥ: 22731, 22802, 22857, 22906, 22948; D: 685.

[Code]...

We want to extract the same letters with its numbers and put the same letters with numbers in one column and do this for all letters, but - this is important - while keeping them in their original row. The purpose of this is addition of data and easy rearrangement of the letter plus numbers order, e.g., to: B M N A T I W D Ḥ. As you can see not all the rows have all letters, nor are the seizes the same. There are thousands of such cells. Some parts are partly in bold, we want to maintain that layout after sorting. Such a thing should be easy for computers, but how could this extraction and manipulation be done (I have Excel 2010)?

P.S. There are two spaces after every ; that were eaten up here.

Using Cell References In File Paths For Formulas To Create Dynamic Formulas

Dec 3, 2013

I am using a lot of linked reports that have to be rewritten each month. For example smaller formulas look like this:

=('S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$228*2)+'S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$262+'S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING201311 November[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]Production Parts'!B$292

What I want to do is extract the file path from the above formula and make it a composite of several cell references.

So what I need is to have a cell where they can change the month and another where we can change the year. So I set up several named cells that look like this:

_MONTH =11 November
_YEAR =2013
_JOBCARD ='S:PUBLICProductionJob CardsMOLDING
_PATH =_JOBCARD & _YEAR &"" &_MONTH

I tried several versions, I am hoping for something like this:

=('_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$228*2)+'_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$262+'_PATH &"[440A SIDE SPOILER JOB CARD.xls]"Production Parts'!B$292
