Prevent Linked Cells Showing Error When Deleting Rows On Other Sheet
Feb 14, 2013
I want to establish a link from my worksheets. Using the conventional link method I was able to link the values from my first worksheet to the second worksheet. My problem is when I delete a particular row. The reference of the second worksheet will have an error #REF! since I deleted those cells. Is there any way that I can link my two worksheets without any error that even if I deleted a particular cell/row the reference is still intact?

I have a form on a SheetA wherein all cells are referencing the data in cells on SheetB. When I delete or add a row on SheetB, the cells in that row on SheetA read REF#. I need the row in SheetA to be added when I add it in SheetB and vice versa for when I delete a row.

Deleting rows that have dependent cells.
I have one sheet that uses a very simple formula for copying certain values from one cell to another sheet “=VALUE(Sheet1!B5)”.
My problem is that rows have to be deleted in sheet1 as the information eventually becomes expired and the following is displayed in my cell in
sheet 2 “=VALUE (Sheet1!#REF!)” Is there a work round this, to prevent the formula showing a #REF! Value.
Row 5 is replaced and the same formula has to be re-entered. Excel 97 used in our office unfortunately.

I have a Main sheet that has many formula on it that link to several Data sheets. Now sometime I want to delete the data sheets and recreate them by copying a Data template sheet and remaming it to the same name as whatever my data sheet was called.
I see that this basically causes a Ref#! error in all the formula on my main sheet so when the data sheet is recreated it wont recognise it.
How can i stop it changing the formula path to Ref#!?

The code below works nicely to insert a time stamp in column B when the user selects "Yes" in the corresponding cell in column A. The problem is if I try to delete any rows or clear the contents of the cells I receive a "Run-time Error 13 - Type mismatch." If I delete the contents of the cells one at a time I do not receive the error. What I am trying to do is the user has a list of items to select from in column A. Only if "Yes" is selected I want the time stamp in column B to appear.
Code is below.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Excel.Range)
With Target
If .Value "Yes" Then Exit Sub
If Not Intersect(Range("A1:A50"), .Cells) Is Nothing Then
Application.EnableEvents = False
With .Offset(0, 1)
[Code] ......

What I have is basically a form on the main sheet. Here other users can add and/or delete information in a form. I refer to the information in another sheet with formulas.
Now everything was great when using protections/ validations, to the where they fill in the information, but the problem occur when they are allowed to delete and remove rows.
This is something that I want to allow them, even though I do realise that this is something that many advice against it.
To begin with I found the post about changing relative references to absolute references (ConvertFormula). Still the formulas changes when rows are added or deleted and I would have to redo all formulas and run the macro again. I then found posts advicing on the use of the INDIRECT forumla. This formula was exactly what I needed as the formulas would not alter when rows were added/deleted. Now the problem is a combination of the use of INDIRECT and the the ConvertFormula. Now if I write a formula, for example:
=INDIRECT("'Sheet1'A1")
Then when I try to expand the formula over to the rest of the cells, then the references stay pointing at A1, when I want them to continue pointing at A2, A3, etc...
Now what I am looking for is some way to tell all my formulas, after expanding the original formula, that they should all have the INDIRECT function. If it was possible it would be great if you could implement it in the same way as with the absolute reference, for example:
For i = 1 To MyRange.Areas.Count
MyRange.Areas(i) = Application.ConvertFormula(MyRange.Areas(i).Formula, xlA1, xlA1, xlIndirect)
Next i
Now the above code sample does not work of course, as there should be xlAbsolute instead of xlIndirect, but I hope you understand my intention. Do anyone have the answer to my problem? Is there an easy way to implement the INDIRECT function into a big amount of formulas?

I've got a workbook that I'm currently designing and I've just realised that I need to delete a few sheets, paste in some new template sheets and rename them. The problem is, I've already completed my summary sheets and I don't want to have to redo the values. Essentially, I just want to (temporarily) turn off auto-updating of formulas when cells / sheets are changed/moved/deleted.
For practical purposes: I need to delete the sheet named "Jan", paste in a new sheet "MonthTemp", rename "MonthTemp" to "Jan" and have all my formulas not updated (e.g. still referencing "Jan" instead of "#REF!")

I have macro that brings information from outlook to excel. In the beginning of macro, it deletes range of cells. That destroys the functions that target those cells. Is there a way avoid that? Using some different method or ?
Code:
Dim olApp As Outlook.Application
Dim olNS As Outlook.Namespace
Dim myCalItems As Outlook.Items
Dim ItemstoCheck As Outlook.Items
[Code] ........
Running the macro messes up all funtions that targets those cells.
Like:
Code:
=DATEVALUE(MID(data!#REF!;4;2)&"."&LEFT(data!#REF!;2)&"."&RIGHT(data!#REF!;2))
This really great code to get data from outlook is originally: [URL] ........

I have a macro which is copying data from several worksheets into one consolidation worksheet. When determining where to paste the data into the consolidation sheet, the macro includes some logic to find the last row that has data in it (using e.Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Row, where "e" is a variable holding the name of the consolidation worksheet).
Once all the data is on the consolidation worksheet, I have a second worksheet with formulas that link to the consolidation sheet. The issue I have is that the first step of my consolidation macro deletes all data on the consolidation sheet to ensure that no data is double-counted). I am deleting the data with logic that simply deletes all rows from 3 to 65536. Once these rows are deleted, Excel returns a #REF! error on my second worksheet which is linking back to this data.
Rather than deleting the rows on the consolidation sheet, I have tried using the Clear and/or ClearContents commands instead. This works (i.e., my formulas no longer error out), but results in the consolidation macro running very slowly (~15 minutes, compared to

Read about the Dfunctions and SUMIFS/COUNTIFS not working between linked objects and think my error is the same.
SYMPTOMS: Formulas wont work unless linked workbooks are open. Once open they work and as soon as the sheet is altered after they are closed, they links break.
My formula =OFFSET(('Linked Workbook'!$A$1),0,VLOOKUP(Range,RangeData,2,0)-1) or go to workbook and bring back a certain amount of cells to the right of A$1$ based on a lookup formula in the Main open workbook.

I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to excel programming but I manage. However, I can't seem to get rid of this run-time error 13. Could anyone take a quick peek at the document and spot the problem?
My intention is this, when typing 'Yes' in the AB column on a certain row, that row is cut from that worksheet and moved to the 'Archive' worksheet, also, simultaneously, I want to send a mail to a specific address.
Here is when I run into the error, I suspect when the row is removed with the 'Yes', those two macros clash.

A large Excel file that I have been working with for months is now giving me trouble.
When I tried to delete 2 rows, it displayed a message: "Excel cannot complete this task with avail resources. Choose less data or close other applications."
I opened a previously saved version of the file and tried deleting rows, and the same message came up.
I shut down the computer, rebooted, same problem.
Any way to determine if a file has been corrupted .... or even worse ... is there a possibility that my Excel program itself is corrupted?

I have this code that I have had for a while.. it works okay on my computer and does as intended... it deleted all empty rows in the selected range after checking to see if any cells contain anything that makes it look blank but isn't (it cleans those cells).
So on my computer it works... on a coworkers computer it converts every used cell in the usedrange to #VALUE...

I have an overview spreadsheet that shows all projects being worked on by my staff.
Each row in the overview sheet represents a single project.
Each row includes the project leader name and a difficulty rating of H, M, or L.
The data for each row in the overview spreadsheet is imported from individual project spreadsheets using formulas.
The formula below imports a difficulty rating of H, M, or L.
=LEFT('IndividualSheets[Proj123.xlsm]Worksheet'!$C$6,1)
I am trying to use a pivot table to track the number of H, M, and L difficulty projects carried by each employee. The pivot table appears to set itself up correctly, listing the names of each employee and recognizing that the possible entries are H, M, and L. The attached image "Capture" shows the results of one project leader.
The problem I have is that it does not show correct project totals, it shows "0" for every entry. For example, instead of showing "15" H level projects for BGa, it shows "0".
If I manually enter an "L" into the overview sheet instead of a link to a cell in the individual project spreadsheet, that entry will show up in the pivot table totals. In the attached image, I manually entered 4 L level entries into the project, but there are several more H,M, and L ranked entries assigned to this employee that aren't included in the sum. I have tried using "Count" and "Sum" in the pivot table properties without success.

I'm looking for a function that will display the average of a row of cells, while at the same time not displaying any error messages. It's easy to average cells without blank values, but to combine that with no errors is difficult for me. I saw many ways to do the average, one of which is:
= SUM(A1:E1)/COUNTIF(A1:E1,">0")
That function doesn't work for a row of blank cells (i.e., hidden rows), though. The result is an error message.
I also read about a way to ignore an error in a computation:
=IF(ISERROR(F1),"",F1)
The problem is when I combine those functions I get a blank cell no matter which function I put first, and without regards to cell values or not. The reason I want this to be error-free is that I have to average the "average column" at the bottom of the table, too (i.e., F100).

I'm trying to create one spreadsheet where I use formulas to come up with an "end total" on a daily basis. I want these "end total" values to be automatically recorded each day on a separate spreadsheet that keeps a historical log.
In example:
On Day 1 I will enter numbers into "Spreadsheet A" to come up with an "end total" for that day. This number will automatically be entered into "Spreadsheet B" on the first row.
On Day 2 I will write over the numbers from the previous day in "Spreadsheet A" to come up with a new "end total". This new "end total" will be automatically entered into "Spreadsheet B" on the second row.

Is there anyway to turn off hyperlink. Everytime I put in an @ symbol in the cell and hit enter, it changes it to a hyperlink and changes the font and size. Is there anyway to turn this off or prevent this without having to click on the cell everytime and choose, remove hyperlink.

I did a search 'cos I assumed this was so trivial it had to be out there, but couldn't find anything.
Have a row where one cell contains
= SUM(D3:D5)
How on earth do I specify the formatting so that if none of D3 to D5 contain any data, then the summed cell should show blank rather than (as it does) 0,00 ??
(FYI - am creating the SUM Formula via a VBA macro if that is relevant)

Currently, Im running a button macro. When this button is clicked, the table from "315 Employee Data" will copy the names from column C to "315" sheet B12 onwards.
Now, what i want is when I update the employee data on "315 employee data" sheet, I want "315" sheet to automatically match the names from "315 employee data", delete and add names when I add or remove employees from the column the next time i click on that button again.
After the above is achieved, when i add new employees,run the macro and it displays the updated list of names, I want "315" sheet column A to do automatic numbering.
I have attached the file for your reference.samplesample.xlsm

I'm working on right now is a spreadsheet where we catalog and monitor account information for a handful of groups. I have several different worksheets that contain grouped information such as all groups we have and a list of individual people in those groups. Those groups are in a single column going down and the people are in a single row for that group going from left to right, an example is below:
Master Personnel Listing for Accounts
-------------------------------------------------
Group 1 | Name 1 | Name 2 | Name 3
Group 2 | Name 1 | Name 2
Group 3 | Name 1
Group 4 | Name 1 | Name 2 | Name 3 | Name 4....................

I have about 10 pivot tables that only have one Pivot Field Item Selected (i.e., Jane Smith) with dates as column fields and a sum for data items. Everytime I refresh the pivot tables and there is a new person in the data tab (which is the data the pivot table is referenced to), the new name populates in the pivot table. I am sure I could include all of the names in one pivot table, but there is a long explanation why I only keep one name per pivot table in this particular workbook.
Attached is an example. As you can see, when you refresh the pivot table, the new name (Jason Smith) which I added to the data tab, will be included in the pivot table.
I am trying to figure out if there is way either with VBA or without VBA to prevent all of the pivot tables in the workbook to not select any new Pivot Field Items when I refresh the pivot tables.

I was wondering if ther is a way to delete what is in one cell, once something has been enterted in another?
Example A1 has In-progress written in the cell.
Once B1 has Completed.
So once B1 has been entered, the info in cell A1 will be deleted.

what I need, but can't seem to string anything together for the final product. What I want to do is search one sheet, in column BQ, for the word Complete. If a cell has that word in it, I want to copy that row, paste it into another sheet, and than go back and delete that row, and continue the search until all rows have been searched. Is there a simple way to do this?
I was thinking of an auto filter, but I'm not sure it'd work how I want it based off of what I've read.

I'm on a system using Windows XP with several user accounts. It's possible to share a document by putting it in a directory called, unsurprisingly, "Shared files' or somesuch. Anyway, I wish to put one of my Excel spreadsheets into this directory so that other users can see it. The workbook itself has about 10 worksheets and I want other people to be able to edit only one of them. So I used the "Protect Worksheet" option within Excel to protect those worksheets I don't want edited. However, I notice that it's still possible to delete a worksheet even though its protected. Is there a way to prevent from deleting worksheets?
