Not sure if possible but im trying to pass a range to a formula in excel from another cell.
[URL] .......
There is a sum formula in range B5 that sums the range (B9:13). I would like to have a formula in cell D5 that passes the new range in cells(D9:D13) to the formula in cell B5 and give the result in cell D5. Is this possible using Excel functions or would i need to create some sort of user defined function for this?
how to pass a cell content into a formula as a named range? For instance, I have 3 named range (Budget, Actual, Forecast) and I use the named range in vlookup formulas. But instead of using the named range in the formula directly, I want to refer to a cell where I can type in which named range I want to use. Can this be done? I am attaching a sample spreadsheet to clarify what I mean.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying use a worksheet that contains named ranges as the source in a macro that will dynamically create pivot tables. The named range could be anything so it can't be hardcoded in the vba and has to come from the worksheet.
In my example, the string strI = "policy" which I know because the msgbox displays the string.
Code:
Dim strI As String
strI = Chr(34) & rngIn.Cells(1, 4).Value & Chr(34)
MsgBox strI
Application.Goto (strI)
But when I try to use strI in place of a hardcoded named range, it always gives me (Reference is not valid) error using the string variable in the following code but never when it's hardcoded in as "policy".
Code:
'This errors out
Application.Goto (strI)
'This works
Application.Goto ("policy")
I have a formula which is using named ranges-
=SUMPRODUCT(xxx-30,Ship_30)/SUM(Ship_30)
where Ship_30 name references the following-
='sheet 1'!$C$20:$C$38
The value of 20 is static, the value of 38 is dynamic. Each new time period adds another value (i.e. 39,40,41)
Having to edit each name range reference in the name manager is not acceptable since there is potentially over 30 to edit each month.
I would like to edit a cell which would have contained the value 38 (or C38) with a new value of 39 (or C39) so the range reference would be updated with the new value.
The goal would be to have a couple of rows with the following that could be edited with new values
I think this is a relatively easy issue, but I don't know how to do it. I call the Sub SortRange in another Sub SortDeliver. A range (ran5) is defined in Sub SortRange that I also need to use in Sub SortDeliver. How do I pass the range or get the second sub to recognize the range?

how to apply conditional formatting via VBA to a range of cells based on input from another range of cells. Obviously this would be easy in Excel 2010, but I'm still using 2003 at the office and it needs to stay in this format to be readable by other users:
For cells M8:EK8, my conditional formatting
condition 2: Formula Is =AND($E$8>=M2,(($E$8-$D$8)>=(N2-$M$2))), color index is 40
condition 3: Formula Is =AND($F$8<=M2,$G$8>=M2), color index is 39
I want to add:
condition 4: Formula Is =AND($H$8<=M2,$I$8>=M2), color index is 40
condition 5: Formula Is =AND($J$8<=M2,$K$8>=M2), color index is 39
and so on
The cells in the range M8:EK8 are blank, they only get colored based on input added to D8 to K8. If there is no input, then the cells should be uncolored.

I'm trying to pass a vector with in Strings (words) to a VBA variable, but something is not working.
That's how I'm writing: ...
I'm trying to set up a journal-type workbook. I have two sheets named Start and End-the first sheet has a cell that contains a formula, =SUM(Start:End!B4) B4 is where you put the number of hours worked in a day. I then run a macro that copies the sheet called Start for each day of the year. What I was expecting was that the cell with the formula would provide a running total of the hours worked through the year on each sheet, but when the sheets are copied the formula changes to =SUM(#REF!B4). My macro to create a copy sheet for the whole year is as follows:
Sub MakeYear()
Dim SH As Worksheet
Dim D As Date, Y As Long
Set SH = ActiveSheet
Y = Val(InputBox("Year:"))
If Y < 2000 Then Exit Sub
If Y > 2100 Then Exit Sub
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
For D = DateSerial(Y, 1, 1) To DateSerial(Y, 12, 31)
Application.StatusBar = D
SH.Copy after:=Sheets("Start")
ActiveSheet.Range("B2").Value = D
ActiveSheet.Name = Format(D, "mmm dd")
Next
Application.StatusBar = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
I will post my code and point out where the error occurs.
Sub GetProd()
'Averages Daily Production over the month
Dim WellRange, MonthRange As Range
Dim Month_ As Integer
TotWells = Sheets("R").Cells(1, 2)
TotMonths = Sheets("R").Cells(1, 4)
Month_ = Sheets("R").Cells(2, 4)
For Flag = 1 To TotWells
Set WellRange = DefineWellRange(Flag)
WellRange.Select <-----Used this To check If Range gets passed back properly.
For c = 1 To TotMonths
Set MonthRange = DefineMonthRange(Month_, (WellRange)) <---Error Here
Next c
Next Flag
End Sub ...
So the error occurs in the main "GetProd" Sub at the point when it calls the DefineMonthRange Function, its a 424 "Object Required" Error. Just before this is called I have a "WellRange.Select" which I was using to make sure that WellRange is in fact a range, and it does select the appropriate area.
So My question is of course, why I get an object error even though I am passing a range to a function which is expecting a range?
Passing Named Range into User Defined Function

Depending on time of day and computer I am sitting in front of I am using:
WinXP Pro SP2 with Excel 2003
Win7 Pro SP2 Excel 2007
Win7 Pro SP2 Excel 2010 on PC
Win7 Pro SP2 Excel 2010 on Mac Mini running Boot Camp
OSX Excel for Mac 2011
I have only tried this on Win7 Pro SP2 Excel 2007 but need it to work on all.
I enter the values 0, 1, 2 ... 89, 90 in cells A1 to A91
I select A1:A91 and name the range 'angle'
I create a user defined function:
Public function sindeg(value As Double) as Double
sindeg = sin(worksheetfunction.radians(value))
end
I want 'value' for the function in a cell to be replaced by the corresponding value in the same row (or column) in the named range 'angle'. For example (using commas as column separators). This works for Excel functions like sin, cos, radians, etc.
********** Worksheet Contents **********
A1 = 00, B1 = sin(radians(0)), C1 = sin(radians(A1)), D1 = sin(radians(angle)), E1 = sindeg(0), F1 = sindeg(A1), G1 = sindeg(angle)
A2 = 01, B2 = sin(radians(1)), C2 = sin(radians(A2)), D2 = sin(radians(angle)), E2 = sindeg(1), F2 = sindeg(A2), G2 = sindeg(angle)
A3 = 02, B3 = sin(radians(2)), C3 = sin(radians(A3)), D3 = sin(radians(angle)), E3 = sindeg(2), F3 = sindeg(A3), G3 = sindeg(angle)
......
A91 = 90, B91 = sin(radians(90)), C91 = sin(radians(A91)), D91 = sin(radians(angle)), E91 = sindeg(90), F91 = sindeg(A91), G91 = sindeg(angle)
Column A = input. Columns B, C, D, E and F all calculate the same value by row. Column G fails with a #VALUE. In row 1 the value of angle[1] = 0 therefore column D = C = B = sin(0) = 0. In row 2 angle[2] = 1 therefore B = C = D = 0.017452
How can I get the user defined function sindeg(value) in column G to accept the named range variable 'angle' like the Excel function radians(value) accepted it in column D?
This functionality should work horizontally as well as vertically. For example enter 'angle' A1 to CM1 then have sindeg(angle) filled from A2 to CM2. It should also work in the case where the named range 'angle' is a single cell.
I am sure that this is a simple variable type definition problem in my user defined function: should the input variable be defined as type Range? Or something more exotic?
The brute force approach is to have the function determine the input value by passing in the named range, working out dimensions, calculating offset between the cell the function is in and top (left) of named range, then counting down (right) to pick the correct value. However I cannot see adding all that code to EVERY function. Occam's Razor says there has to be an easier way since Excel built in functions seem to do it readily.

I'm using Excel 2003 and I'm trying to make my LINEST function and the source cells for a scatter graph use the cell range specified in another cell in the document. I figured out that it was simple to do the following:

I am trying to find out how many weeks our current inventory will support our sales. I am trying to research formulas that will do this, and coming back with things like OFFSET, MATCH, INDEX but am not certain the best way to put them together to get what I need. I use excel daily, but this is a bit mroe advanced than I am used to
Mini.xlsx
Starting in cell B4, I would like to count how many weeks of Demand can be covered by the specific Available On Hands in row 3 for that week, put the number of "Weeks Covered" into cell B2, and then fill over to the right in row 2. Right now, the values in row 2 are from my own manual calculations, but I would like a dynamic formula that will sum up the values in row 4 up to (but not greater than) the value in B3, give the count of cells that reached that sum (or even better with decimals to show the percentage covered), which I will copy over into B3:B13. Not sure if that makes sense, or if I can explain in a better way. The yellow cells are what I am trying to create a formula for and am currently stuck.
I have been searching for hours trying to find a solution to no avail. What I need to do is make sure that when I press a button on a form, the value in a combo-box should be populated as "text format" not as a number. The reason for this is that when my numbers start with a 0, the leading zero gets dropped and I can't run the rest of my code as the items don't match...
I have tried substituting the "Value" to "text" in : Me.cboItem.value and have tried for hours trying to name dim variables as a String and pass this into the cboItem...with no luck...

I want to know how to index a drop down list to be used for calculations.
Up until now I was using
Range("B1").Select 'the cell where the drop down list is
ActiveCell.Formula = SiteID 'site id
But for whatever reason it trims a trailing zero from SiteID when setting it in the second line. SiteID is a VBA string.
Indexing it would work, as would preserving the zero so help on either one is appreciated. Auto Merged Post Until 24 Hrs Passes;Correction, I lied. I was using this line to set it.

I'm basically looking for something almost like an inverse function to INDIRECT. This function would first look at a cell's formula as a text string, parse out the first valid cell reference in A1 format, and return that cell as a text string.
Detail: I have a spreadsheet with cells that point to other values. I would like to get only the row number from the first cell reference in the formula residing in a given cell. For example:
Suppose A1 has the formula =AL267. and A2 has the formula =SUM(AL94:AL235)
I would like a formula in B1 that returns the text string, "AL267" so that I would know this is the first reference.
Ideally it could be dragged down to B2 such that it returns the text string "AL94" (and not "AL235") because AL94 is the first cell reference in A2's
Currently I am copying the formulas after hitting ctl+` and pasting that text into a text editor, followed by text operations to manipulate the results into the desired values. Any solution that didn't involve going out to notepad.

What I need is a version of: (currently not working)
