More Than 30 Arguments: SUM & AVERAGE
Feb 21, 2009
I've created a spreadsheet that calculates both the SUM and the AVERAGE on 2 different rows. So far, so good.
The problem I've come across is that there are 35 different numbers (arguments?) that have to be calculated and from what I see, Excel has a limit of 30.
Is there a way for me to get around this?
If it'll help, I can send the spreadsheet to you so you can see what I'm talking about in the event I didn't properly explain it here.

I'm getting the error that tells me I have more than 30 arguments when trying to get an average of cells across a row. The biggest issue is that I don't want to average all the cells in the row, just some of them.
I tried writing an IF statement for it and failed. What I want is every fourth cell to be totaled into the average. Another way to look at it is that I want every cell under the heading "south" to be totaled into the average.

I need some assistance in using an array formula which averages based on multiple arguments. The relevent range names in my input data are:
Col A - Manager Col B - Report Type Col C - Days taken to Complete
and I have used Validation Lists to include several different Managers and 5 Report Types which I'll call A - E, with Days taken to Complete an input. Each Manager may have 0 to numerous instances of each report during each period.
I'm trying to build a table which includes each manager and the average number of days taken to complete each report. The complication is that, while Report A & B are separate reports, for this purpose I need to get an average for A & B together.
For C, D & E, I have used the following:
{=AVERAGE(IF((Type="C")*(Manager="Smith"),Days_taken_to_Complete))}
For A&B, I have tried:
{=AVERAGE(IF((Type="A")*(Type="B")*(Manager="Smith"),Days_taken_to_Complete))}
but this doesn't work. Could someone please advise me the correct formula if either of two states in a named range are to be used to average a second named range?

Need to find average (see attached file) of certain rows of column C that correspond to letters on column B that match any letter on column A. Basically if column B has the same text as in one of the cells in column A then number across in column C should be used to calculate the average. In column D I have entered(manually) all values that satisfy the above condition and obviously the average should be 1 if formula is correct.
I have tried to use AverageIF function but not able to do it as there are many conditions. Another thing to consider is that conditions change (column A content) so I need to use cells that have information rather then actual text in it.

I am trying to make changes to the Y column where the calculation now looks at column C to see what is entered in that column. If it is "Futures" then it runs the existing formulas but if it equals "Forex" I want it to use the value in column D as the multiplier, where the Futures option uses the hlookup to get the correct multiplier from the Variables sheet. If column C is either "Options" or "Stock_ETF" then i want to just subtract column I from column Y times column P.
I attempted to add additional IF AND functions but got the error message "Too many arguments", so now i am not sure where to go from here.

I am trying to get two different arguments to work into one cell. I was using the "If" statement eg. if the value of B1 is greater than B2 then use the value in cell A1 else use A2. I also need in the same cell if the value of C1 = B then use the value in D1
What I am looking for is a statement which will decide which statement to use eg if B1 is blank then use the second statement else use the first statement.

It appears that the excel IF statement caps out at eight arguments. Is there a work around for this? I need to enter 29 arguments... Does excel have a CASE or Array function?
Example-works:
=IF((H3="Weight1"),"A",IF((H3="Weight2),"B",IF((H3="Weight3"),"C",IF((H3="Weight4"),"D",IF((H3="Weig ht5"),"E",IF((H3="Weight6),"F",IF((H3="Weight7"),"G",IF((H3="Weight8"),"H",""))))))))
Example-doesn't work:
=IF((H3="Weight1"),"A",IF((H3="Weight2),"B",IF((H3="Weight3"),"C",IF((H3="Weight4"),"D",IF((H3="Weig ht5"),"E",IF((H3="Weight6),"F",IF((H3="Weight7"),"G",IF((H3="Weight8"),"H",IF((H3="Weight9"),"I""")) )))))))

I've heard of calling a sub with arguments but don't believe I'd done it in the past. I want to remove the empty rows in 3 worksheets so that my row count actually stops where the existing data does. The second sub is where that takes place. What is the best way to call the sub to execute on the three sheets?
My thinking had been that if I used the argument ws as worksheet I could simply call the sub with the worksheet name as the argument.
Code:
Option Explicit
Sub PopulateProfit()
Dim wb As ThisWorkbook
'Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim wsProfRep As Worksheet
Dim wsChaseRaw As Worksheet
[Code] ..........

The 2 basic arguments of the Countif Function (range and criteria) are simple and make sense. However, I've observed instances where the criteria component is in fact a range.
In this case, is what is the syntax instructing the app to count in the first range?

i drop the letters from column "b" because i stopped getting error messages when i took them out.

Why excel won't accept a simple COUNT function?
This is the formula. It is supposed to count every 4th cell in a column.
=COUNT(F156,F152,F148,F144,F140,F136,F132,F128, F124,F120,F116,F112,F108,F104,F100,F96, F92,F88,F84,F80,F76,F72,F68,F64,F60,F56,F52,F48,F44,F40,F36,F32,F28,F24,F20,F16,F12,F8,F4)
Excel tells that it will accept up to 255 arguments in a COUNT function, but it'll only let me include:
=COUNT(F156,F152,F148,F144,F140,F136,F132,F128,F124,F120,F116,F112,F108,F104,F100,F96,F92,F88,F84,F80,F76,F72,F68,F64,F60,F56,F52,F48,F44,F40)
I have to use this exact same formula as a SUM function as well, but am having the same problem. Neither SUM or COUNT will take all the arguments.
I've attached the file. The tabs in red are the worksheets that won't accept the formula. The green tabs worked fine (they all had less cells to include than the sheets in red.)

Im trying to build a little database and the closest thing i have come to manage what i want to do is with IF and Vlookup function.
I have 1 "main page" lets call it "sheet1"
Then i have nomerous of "secondary pages" we call them "sheet2", "sheet3" etc.
The idea is that on my "main page" im using 3 colums "A","B" and "C". "A" and "B" helps deciding where my VLOOKUP function should find the correct value.
The "A" column is planned to decide in what sheet to look for seach word(which is written in "C" column)
Basicly if "A1" is saying "2" its gonna do my VLOOKUP in "sheet2" , and if "A1" sais "3" its gonna look for my "search word" in "sheet3" etc.
My formula at this point (witch is working for 2 pages)
=IF(A1=2;VLOOKUP(B1;sheet1!A1:B6;2;FALSE);IF(A1=3;VLOOKUP(B1;sheet2!A1:B6;2;FALSE)))
This is working perfectly.
If i write "2" in "A1" and "car" in "B1" VLOOKUP jumps to "sheet1" lookup "car" and return the value in the second column (in this case 2"
and if i write "3" in "A1" and keep "car" in "B1" VLOOKUP jumps to "sheet2" and return the carvalue for this sheet (in this case 22).
Then the problem
The problem is ofcourse that if i wanna continue with this formula in the same box, i wanna make it keep looking in more sheets depending on what number i have in "A1"
If i put number 5 in it goes to "sheet5" and look for "car" and return valuve.
But at this point the formula is too big for excel.
So i guess my question is. Is there any workaround for this? Can anyone come up how to approach this in another way? (im out of ideas)
Or am i doomed and have to learn programming to get my idea to work?

My question is about passing arguments to UserForm procedures. I've created a Main procedure. Main calls a sub procedure and returns an array. Obviously Main can now use the array. But then Main calls a sub procedure to open my userform.
All of my userform sub procedures need to use the array I created in Main. Do I have to pass the array into all of my userform procedures? Into the UserForm_Show procedure? And then again into UserForm_Initialize? And then again into ComboBox_Change? I don't understand how to give my UserForm procedures the array from my Main procedure.

I have a misc worksheet where I can store True and False, but how can I link it to the code.

I'm trying to use multiple arguments for a date, but they are not going through for some reason
the two I'm using are:
=IF(month(a1)=month(today())+3,"yes","")
=IF(year(a1)=year(today()),"yes","")
each one is fine on its own, but if I try to put them together using "and" it does not work.
I am trying to have the word yes show up when we are three months away (not 90 days), but also I want it to show only this years results and not next years.

I am have these values based on dates from 1st till 31st and each value is in the alternate cell on the worksheet. For example, value for the 1st is in Cell A1 and the value for 2nd is in cell C1 and so on.
I need to sum all these values for different dates. I am using the sum() and it gives me an error like "too many arguments in the formula".
Do I need to do something else or apply a different formula? Maybe a UDF or a macro?

I have this formula in cell Q34;
..........
"You've entered too many arguments for this function" Logically I can follow this message but I was under the impression that you could get a maximum of 64 arguments in an "IF" condition.
The actual value of Cell P34 is DKK1938.22 so I expect it to return £203.68 in cell Q34.
