Pulling Data From Other Files - #NUM! Error
Jan 12, 2010
I have a main spreadsheet (Excel file) that pulls data from 3 other Excel files. Every day, the main spreadsheet has #NUM! errors in the cells referencing the other 3 external files. The errors go away when I open and then close the other 3 files, and the data then shows up fine on the main spreadsheet. What is causing this? Is there a way for the main file to automatically update the links without the errors? I set the option to enable external content and automatically update the links, but I keep getting the #NUM! error, until I actually open and close the 3 other referenced files, then it will work fine for the rest of the day.

I am trying to write a macro that will select all cells on a sheet from a2 until the last cell with data. (The last column will be column k but not all columns are completly filled. And I need all the data from the page copied.) Then paste that info onto the first sheet. Then go to another sheet do the same thing except paste it in the first open cell on the first sheet.
Then take all the data from the first sheet of different files into one seperate file.

I have 12 external files (one per month) and need a quick way to pull these into a reporting book. I've used the following code...
Workbooks.Open FileName:= _
"J:ManfinMISNew ReportingMIS2P200301.xls"
Columns("A:B").Select
Selection.Copy
Windows("MainReportingBook.xls").Activate
Sheets("P200301").Select
Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Paste
Windows("P200301.xls").Activate
Call OpenClipboard(0&): Call EmptyClipboard: Call CloseClipboard
ActiveWindow.Close
However with 10000++ rows of data in each file, this is very very slow (approx 5 mins to update all 12 months).

I am trying to use the following formula to pull out data from multiple excel files in a folder called "Certificate".
='D:SSR Sec and Techcertificate[STUDENT 2.xlsx]Student Record'!$B$10
='D:SSR Sec and TechcertificatePath
[STUDENT 2.xlsx] File Name
Student Record'!$B$10 Sheet name and Cell reference
The formula works without any problem. I want to replicate the formula to extract the same data in multiple excel files. In this case only the second part of the formula needs to change to "STUDENT 3", "STUDENT 4", "STUDENT 5" and so on. I have created a column in excel with those values. I am trying to use the cell contents in the above "formula", but I cannot seem to replace this value in the formula. Needless to mention that I tried to drag the formula, but it does not work. I am attaching the two excel files.

I am pulling external data from an Access 2007 database query that uses the nz function. While linking to the query, I get an "Undefined Function nz" error. The query works perfect when run in Access.

i want it to change the Header in E1 to the name of that price level and have the prices change according to that price level. The price level prices are currently being pulled from another tab through vlookups which lookups up the part numbers. My method only works with 1 price level right now and have no clue how to approach it with more then one price level. Also these part numbers will change positions and locations and are not permanent hence why i thought to use a vlookup.
Is there a way macro wise ( preferably through a formula ) that i can have Column E prices change according to the Price Level Entered.

In the little chart on the left, I have the customer name, when their story is due, and when it was completed. On the right, I want to show how many words per hour my journalist is averaging for each week. What I'd like to do in cells J2 through J5 is to have a formula that pulls out the total number of words written for all projects that occurred during that time frame. I can't seem to figure out the formula, though. I was thinking that I needed an array formula starting with ifferror and calling from the row functions, but I can't seem to get it to work out right.
Here's my sample sheet: sample data journalists.xlsx

I want to be able to create tables out of this where I can pull all line items with correlation > 0.8 or <0.1 or <0.3 etc.
I think a macro will have to be written for this.

I have searched extensively for an answer to this but can't find anything.
I am pulling data off the web and it puts data down the column in the following manner:
Data
Number
Number
Data2
Number
Number
I need to extract each set of Data to another worksheet. The problem is that it will be anywhere from 1 row each to 10 rows each. In each instance, there is a blank between the two sets of Data. I've looked at ISBLANK, LOOKUP, SEARCH, etc. but nothing I've tried has worked out.

I have written a macro to pull in data from a website each day. However the macro falls over because the end of the url changes slightly each day as the website provider updates the information. Unfortunately there does not appear to be a logical pattern to the number change in the url and so I don’t think I can pre-empt what the change will be. The path through the website remains the same, but the url changes as a new csv document replaces the old one. Is there any way of writing the macro so that it opens/picks up the current url rather than a fixed url?

I went through the thread http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/showthread.php?t=302438. I have similar problem of pulling the data from http://www.nseindia.com/ site. Could you please help me?
The navigation to the page required is as below.
http://www.nseindia.com/ > Equity > Historical Data > Security-wise data >
eg. NSE Symbol: RPL, Series: ALL, From date: 01-01-2008, To date: 01-05-2008.
After clicking on the 'Get Results' button it navigates to the page with tables. At the end it says "Download file in csv format". upon clicking this a csv file opens. (http://www.nseindia.com/content/equi...-2008RPLXN.csv)
I need this page to be opened in Excel sheet. How should I go ahead?
(Basically I need historical stock data csv files of various stocks)
Even though a simple web query opens the page, it do not work if the parameters (stock name, date) are changed.
I found that the last resulting page in csv is using a "REFERRAL URL". Could this be a problem? How to get around?
I know little bit of VBA and can further work to pass variables.

information from a website that does not allow web queries (or at least from Excel 2003).
I have to pull the latest data every Wednesday from this webpage: [url]
To make things even more complicated the name of the page changes every week as well (corresponding to the date).

I have a spreadsheet with multiple data tabs feeding a few summary tabs.
For this question I will deal with one summary tab and two data tabs, one data tab for sales and one data tab for service. On the summary tab, I want to look at vehicles sold during a certain time period-(looking to the sales tab). For each of the records in the sales tab that match the date range, I need to count the repair order activity on the service tab. The key between the summary and sales tab is the sales date, and the key between the sales and service tabs is the vehicle serial number.
I currently have multiple columns on the sales tab to perform the counts from the service tab, thus allowing me to pull the information to the summary tab. Problem is that the spreadsheet has over 2 million calculating cells and tends to take excessive amounts of time to recalc.

This workbook contains links to other data sources.
*If you update the links, Excel will attempt to retrieve the latest data.
*If you don't update the links, Excel will use the previous information.
Note that data links can be used to access and share confidential information without permission and possibly perform other harmful actions. Do not update the links if you do not trust the source of this workbook.
I've stopped trying to rectify the situation and just click on cancel. So does everyone else. Big mistake. If there is a file that changes from time to time, and you're relying on a link to it to make your data correct, and some one moves or removes it! you get the above message. But you have no idea it's your very important file that has been deleted or moved. And Excel as the message says, uses the last data it had access to.
Is there a way to force Excel to display the #N/A error for the broken link instead of telling the lie? Well really, if the file’s been deleted or moved, Excel has no idea what the true value of the "Link" is and is lying when it puts up that last known value and really doesn't tell you except for that opening message.
Very frustrating, the Bill Of Material was moved and then changed, and my Excel file reported the old value just like that.
I've got a huge file with lots of pages and all sorts of people do lots of things including making links to files that after a while get moved or deleted. I can't chase them all down.
So, is there a way to force Excel to "Crash" and put up an error message in the cell where the link is supposed to be?

In VBA I'm trying to grab numbers from a cell range (ie: A1:A10), and save them to a matrix or variable. I will later need to grab additional numbers and add it to that matrix. I have experimented several different ways, but belows demonstrates what I'm trying to do:
VB:
my_data = Range("A1:A10").Value
my_data = my_data&Range("B1:B10").Value

In the workbook I have separate sheets for each category.

I am tracking 3 different payment types, and the employee, customer and dollar amount for the transactions that can not be verified. All of this data is then transferred over the the "Summary" sheet. I found the Countif formula that will tell me how many times an employee names appears on the sheet, but I was wondering if it were possible to also calculate the dollar amount associated with those transactions.
I have attached the spreadsheet to better explain what I am talking about, but below is a very small example. I do not want to calculate the info on this page, but rather add another 2 cells next to where the number of unclaimed and the % of unclaimed are calculated on the "Summary" sheet. Sample spreadsheet2.xlsx
A B C D
1 Date EmployeeCustomer $
2 1-Jan MonicaJohn Doe $65.00
3 2-Jan AshleyJane Doe $85.00
4 3-Jan MonicaJustin Doe $15.00
5 4-Jan MonicaJessica Doe $135.00
6 5-Jan AshleyJeremy Doe $100.00

i am currently working on a file that counts things during the day and then sums them up. i have a different sheets for each day witch are named 28.07,27.07,26.07 etc'
i want the current sheet to pull data from the last sheet, lets say from cell I10. so if i'm working on the 28.07 - i use the formula " ='27.07'!I10' " and it works just fine. but i want to automate it. lets say make a cell in every sheet with the name of the previous one (i figured out how to automatically generate it) and make the formula pull from there. so lets say if i use the cell B2 for the value of the previous sheet (27.07) - it should look like " =B2!I10 "

I have a table, which contains a dates in Column A. and Contract type in Column C, and the value in Column G.
I need a VLOOKUP function which takes the value "06.03.2009" and "Dec-2009". That can return the value "10,97".

I don't think this may even be possible, but what I am trying to do is pull only certain information from one worksheet to another based on whether there are entries on certain dates for employees.
A sample is attached.
On the first worksheet I have a drop down menu for all employees on the second sheet. (the drop down menu pulls the names from the second sheet)
The second worksheet has all employees in Column A and to the right has all their variances by date. Most dates will be blank as they didn't have a variance.
What I would like is on the first worksheet, is to select their name from the drop down menu and have all the dates that they had variances and the variances show up.
If you take a look at the attached excel file it might explain what I am trying to do better.

I would like to be able to copy a single row of data from a huge sheet containing about 7000 rows on a daily basis. This would be a non issue except that it is not in the same row from day to day. It may be in row 1624 today and 1620 tomorrow basically. In the second column is a unique ID number that says constant though. I need a macro that can find this number and copy the entire row of data to another sheet.
The second issue I am having is that this data is from a .csv file that is posted on the next business day. The name of this file changes day to day because the name of the file is the date it was from.
