Moved Document Now Formulas Don't Work?

Jul 31, 2013

I have created two documents. One document (A) is my worksheet where I input data, the second document (B) is my spreadsheet where it comprises all my data into the fields I want. I have completed both documents on computer (1) and now need to transfer it to another computer (2). However my formulas no longer function after I move the document (A) from computer (1) to computer (2). Is there a way for me to work around this? Do I need to transfer the spreadsheet (B) to computer (2) in order for them to function correctly? How can I make it so I have the worksheet (A) on computer (1) enter data correctly into the spreadsheet (B) on computer (2)?

Getting Two Formulas To Work Together In Same Cell

Oct 10, 2006

i have the following formulas that work perfectly seperatly

=MAX(0,(E28-D28-"0:45")*24-F28)

=IF(C28=$C$70,C28=$C$72),2,0)

but it is imperative that i get them to show there results in the same cell.

neither are used at the same time, only one result is required depending on what is needed.

i did try putting them together as follows but did not work

=MAX(0,(E28-D28-"0:45")*24-F28),IF(C28=$C$70,C28=$C$72),2,0)

Formatting/formulas To Work

Jan 19, 2010

I'm trying to get some formatting/formulas to work, but apparently I'm not doing it right (otherwise, I wouldn't be here ):

1. Column A has dates. I want Column A_ to be red if the date is a week old or more from today's date, and white if it is not.

2. Column A has dates, and column B has dollar values. I want three four summations:
-Total dollar value from dates a week old from today's date
-Total dollar value from dates 2 weeks old from today's dates
-Total dollar value a month old from today's date
-Total dollar value year to date

HLOOKUP To Work With Cells Containing Formulas

Dec 8, 2013

I have a niggling problem with a worksheet when using Hlookup to return a value from a range of cells it is coming up with blanks when there is data in the range.

There is only ever one row cell containing text in the specified range and i need this to be returned in another column.

The problem with the hlookup formula i am using is that it will not work if cells contain formulas and in the range i am working on all cells contain formulas.

I know this formula works if there is text without a formula in the cell range, as soon as it hits a cell with a formula though it won't work.

I have attached the sheet : Book4.xlsx

From j138 there is one cell with text i wish to be returned in column q for each row. E.g., in q1 the first cell text returned would be khawatim. q2 should contain cantor etc etc.

How To Make IF Work On Formulas And Not Values

Nov 18, 2013

I've developed a spreadsheet that shows what errors people made in their spreadsheets. I compare cell A1 in spreadsheet 1 (original) against cell A1 in spreadsheet 2 (final), in spreadsheet 3. Spreadsheet 3 shows a "-" if the cell they wrote was OK, and shows the new, correct value if they made an error, as follows:

=IF('Final'!A5='Original'!A5, "-",'Final'!A5)

The problem is, this only works if I take the original spreadsheets, which contain formulae in each cell, and paste them into a new spreadsheet using paste values.

Is it possible for the IF function to search the formula in a cell, and not the value?

Formulas No Longer Work After Converting To Table

Apr 27, 2013

I'm working on a spreadsheet which will sum values from two source worksheets based on the month and year in certain columns. I put together a summary worksheet and was able to successfully pull the data I wanted. So my next step was to convert the Summary data into a table (because I prefer the aesthetic value of the "greenbar" effect in Excel tables). But as soon as I converted the cells to a table, the formulas returned nothing.

After playing around with it, I determined that the problem seems to be the fact that I use the year criteria as a cell reference (that way, I can later change the year in one cell and update all the dependent formula). I've got "2013" in Cell A1 in General format, and all the formulas use a YEAR=$A$1 criterion. I found out that if I changed the formulas to YEAR=2013 instead of using the cell reference, I got the desired result again. But I cannot quite understand why changing the data into a table would alter the way Excel interprets the formula (plus, I still want to be able to change the year by updating one single cell).

CUSTOM SORTING Will Not Work On Table With INDEX Formulas

Jan 28, 2014

Problem we are having with sorting a table.

The table (A1:E10) was created by pulling data from another worksheet using INDEX and ARRAY formulas.

We inserted 6 columns to move the table over to G1:K10 (used column F to space the two tables).

We then duplicated the table: cell A1=G1, B1=H1, ...., E1=K1 and dragged the formulas down. We now have a duplicate table that we want to sort.

We choose CUSTOM SORT and choose 2 levels of sorting ... column A and column C.

PROBLEM: The ARRAY formulation evidently overrides the sort function because the table remains as it was when the sorting command is executed.

Is there a way to bring the data from table G1:K10 over to table A1:E10 in a manner that will allow sorting??

Jul 21, 2014

I have a requirements to capture the data and calculate the qty based on the defined work week. How to to this in vba macro or a formulas. I'll giving a sample data as reference. In my sample data i have already the formulas
but i wanted to automate the work week calculation specially if the number of days in a month has been change.

Btw, the values of every column is came from other worksheet. i copy paste this data as my sample.

For ex : Today is July and it has 31 days, the 31 days will be distributed to the defined workweek and calculate the contents of the corresponding column.

here is the distribution of columns per week as reference.

(31 days)
wk1 - Day1 to Day8 (8 colums)

Searching For Mistakes In Document While Using Another Document As Reference

Feb 2, 2014

I am processing a fair few Invoices, which are being sent to me via e-mail as excel documents, very often they contain mistakes, a decent amount of mistakes. Usually the prices are wrong.

I keep track of every single entry on the invoice on my own document - Tracker, which I consider to be the superior/more correct document to the Invoice presented to me by my contractor.

Both of the documents have a reference number, which is a specific docket number, and horizontally, in the invoice, there is going to be a price for this docket. In my document, there is going to be a separate column for the total price.

Is it possible (I guess with VBA) to check for mistakes in the Invoice, but use the Tracker as a reference for this check.

Tracker has
columns
A - Name
B - Department
C - Date
D - Docket No.
C - Total price for the docket (calculation of E to Z)
E to Z - all smaller entries

Invoice has
columns
A - Date
B - Docket No.
C to E price for that docket, but it is spread, because departments are separated out, so each VAT account can be charged accordingly. I guess it is possible to do a separate column for the price, if it is easier to do a script that way.

Basically, I need to check if in the Invoice document, the price (C to E) for Docket No. (B) is the same as the price (C) for the Docket No. (D) in the Tracker.

I would like the wrong entries to be highlighted on the Invoice Document, so I can see straight away, that this needs attention.

Not always the price is wrong, sometimes the Docket No. is spelled incorrectly (Dyslexic contractor), hence the highlighting.

Event Triggered When A Shape Is Moved

Jan 20, 2010

Is there a way to trigger a macro when a shape is moved by the user? If I set the OnAction property for a shape, then the cursor changes to a hand when it is over the shape, and I can detect a mouse click on the shape, but I cannot drag and drop the shape. If I reset the OnAction property to "" (empty quotes), then I can drag and drop again within the worksheet, but I can't trigger the macro.

Worksheet_Change or Worksheet_SelectionChange are not triggered by this event.

People have suggested using timers to continuously poll the shapes and determine their locations, but is there an easier way?

What I am trying to do is create a sheet where the user can visually move around objects (in this case representing employees) and deposit them in various zones. The spreadsheet would then apply certain attributes to the shape i.e. change colour according to where the shape is and if it is in an unsuitable zone. I can do all of this, but I want it to work the instant the shape is moved, not rely on the user to hit a button.

How To Protect Shapes From Being Inadvertently Moved By User

Feb 5, 2014

I did create a group of two shapes. One square and one circle. The main reason behind grouping them is to have them rotate around the same centre.

Now the problem of the usage of the shapes. I don't want them inadvertently shifted by the user. The rotation of the circle will be wobbly.

The circle is rotated by a module. Protecting the sheet makes the rotation of the circle stop working.

My thought was to overlay part of the sheet by an Active X label and set the BackStyle to transparent and there is no need to protect the whole sheet.

The problem now is that when I click on the label it turns white, and as soon as I move the cursor out of its perimeter the "underlying" circle will become visible again.

How to prevent this behaviour of the label. I want the label to stay invisible and protect the underlying shapes from being moved.

Array Formula Works In One Portion But Not After Being Altered And Moved

Dec 18, 2013

I figured out exactly what I wanted to do and got it to work in a test excel sheet. However, when integrating it into the actual workbook I wanted, I was unable to get it to work. So, I used the same cell references I need to work in my actual workbook and pasted it all back to the test excel sheet.

So, the test excel sheet has the working formulas up at the top, and a duplicate of what I need to work in the actual cells I need them to work in. Changing the shift start time should group any persons with the same shift togethor. I'm still fairly new, but I think the only portion that could have been changed is the portion that says 1:1.. I figure that is relative to the array so it shouldn't be changed, but not sure what else to do.

Here's an array formula that works:

[Code]....

Here's the array formula to be in the correct cells that doesn't work:

[Code] ....

How to to get it to work in the different cell area.

Excel 2010 :: Hyperlinks Not Working When Spreadsheet Moved

Oct 17, 2013

Using MS Excel 2010.

As I understand it hyperlinks set in a spreadsheet should work regardless of where you save and/or copy the spreadsheet i.e. as long as the directory location of the location / file the hyperlink is referencing doesn't change (notwithstanding, the user must have appropriate access rights to the relevant directory locations)

However, the situation I have is the spreadsheet was generated and saved to directory location A (intention being this would be the 'master' yearly template) and the hyperlinks set, all of which work when you open the spreadsheet in this directory location. But when I copy the spreadsheet to directory location B, which is intended to be the yearly 'register' location for the spreadsheet, none of the hyperlinks work? When I hold my cursor over a link in the copied spreadsheet, in directory B, I do not get a 'pop-up' path like I do in directory A and when I click a link I get an error message:

Microsoft Excel The address of this site is not valid. Check the address and try again.

As stated above the documents the hyperlinks relate to have not moved, they remain in the same template directory (i.e. the link path has not altered).

Failure Of Automatic Calculation When Worksheet Moved To Another File

Jun 1, 2008

I have workbooks in which summary tables are generated by lookup formulas. Tables are on different sheets but all use the same lookup value by referring to a cell on the 'master' sheet. The lookup value appears in cells on all sheets, by reference to the master sheet (e.g. [formula] = mastersheet!$B$2).

The master sheet contains the main summary table and is copied and detached for distribution, using a macro. For practical reasons, this is done in two stages, first copying the sheet within the workbook (to make minor alterations), then moving it to a new book to save and distribute.

This is where the problem arises. After the sheet has been detached, we find that if we now change the lookup value on the master sheet in the original file, the tables on that sheet will update normally, but the cells on other sheets remain frozen at the previous value and the tables on those sheets do not update.

The only way round the problem is by Shift + Ctrl + Alt + F9. (Maybe I should add that all my workbooks are always set to automatic calculation.)

The macro itself is not the cause of the problem; if we follow the same procedure manually, the result is the same. However, if we move the sheet in one step, eliminating the intermediate copying stage, the problem does not arise. But this is evading the problem, not solving it, and I would be reluctant to have to resort to this.

The original problem remains as stated, viz. failure of automatic calculation.

Moved Workbooks To Folders Now User Form Subsript Out Of Range

May 19, 2008

The attached workbook has a userform which was searching the same folder where this file is located for entries in columns "A" and "B" of files named in column "I" (workbook1, workbook2 etc).

I have this placed on a sharepoint and want to move the files into specific folders (folder1/workbook1, folder2/workbook2 etc.) so I can set them as view only folders to stop unuathorised editing.

I am now getting a "Subscript out of range" error after doing a search. I can see it's a problem with the file name as it's pulling it from text in a cell but can't work out!

I need it to work out if the width of a job is for eg 2400mm i need to work out how many timber studs I need so the space between each stud is between 400mm and 500mm and this will need to work for a range of different sizes of frames. I have it written at the moment and it just devides the width by 400 and gives me a amount of studs but it would work much better if it could space them between 400 & 500.
