Place Cell Value Into Function

Jan 6, 2012

I need to place cell value into one function (I cannot modify this function it is built in) .

For example:

Function is

CODE
A2=KGF
=ABCDFE_(my value of A2 thus KGF)_GHIJKL

Thus the end result:

=ABCDFE_KGF_GHIJKL

I can concatenate the string but I cannot evaluate it .

=CONCATENATE("ABCDFE_",A2,"_GHIJKL")

is there a way to do it ?

Will VBA In Place Of A Function Reduce This Workbook Size

Mar 5, 2009

I know that VBA doesn't always slim down workbook size and calculations are calculations whether in VBA or Formula format; but in this instance, do you think VBA would be a better choice? This workbook is currently enormous in size and slow, and I think I can slim it down if I used the right VBA procedures. However, Im not certain what those procedures would be.

On two seperate worksheets in a workbook, I have a column that contains a formula that references a third sheet.

Sheet 1 = "Order"
Sheet 2 = "Turn-in"
Sheet 3 = "Bank"

Ok, here's the scenario: On the "Order" sheet, I have a list of orders from my company; on the "turn-In" sheet, a list of turn-ins. The "Bank" sheet lists ALL transactions (ORDER AND TURN-IN).

On both the turn-in and Order sheets, the formula is pretty much the same; it references a different column on the bank sheet, but does it the exact same way. Ok... The Order sheet lists all order from the company by order number (column A); the formula uses that order number and finds the transaction on the "Bank" sheet and returns the order cost as the result. however, the order numbers on the bank sheet have a 5 digit prefix on them (the prefix is the same on all orders, its used by the bank but only orders with my 5 digit prefix are on the list sent to me and pasted to this sheet. So all orders on bank sheet have the same prefix)

The below formula is in Cell C10 on "Order" Sheet; Column C lists the Cost reported by the bank. The formula below references the Bank sheet database, looks for an order number that matches the order number in A10 (Adding the prefix of course), and returns a cooresponding cost for that transaction.


=IF(ISBLANK(A10),"",IF(COUNTIF(BANK!$A$4:$W$10001,("ECGGT"&A10))>1,"",SUMIF(BANK!$A$4:$W$10001,"ECGGT"&$A10,BANK!$F$4)))

I know this seems long for what it is, but it has to add the prefix, and then match the order number, and reference the cooresponding cost.

The kicker, this forumla is in more than 10,000 cells; 6,000 on the order sheet, and 5,000 on the turn-in sheet. Of course the references are a little different, but the principle is the same for all of them.

Is there a way to do this in VBA to save space and resources? This formula is really dragging.

Excel Goal Seek Function For Finding Values To Certain Decimal Place

Feb 17, 2010

Any function in Excel, that would allow me to have a unit cost price (for example: 0.5432) and then for a table of figures containing the pack sizes to determine the correct unit price that would allow all pack costs to be at 2 decimal places. I have included an example below:

My spreadsheet would look like the following:

Cell A1 (Unit Cost Price) = .5814
Cell A3 (Pack of 75 units) = .5814*75 = 43.605
Cell A4 (Pack of 80 units) = .5814*80 = 46.512
Cell A5 (Pack of 100 units) = .5814*100 = 58.14
and so on

I need some way of making cell A1 change to a value that will cause all cells A3 to A5 to be 2 decimal places or less.

Random Function On Select Range?

Mar 14, 2014

I would like to use the random function on a range of select numbers. I tried randbetween() but it won't work for me since my range of numbers are not in sequence (e.g. 1,2,4,6,7,8,9,10,21). Using randbetween() might result in numbers not within my range..

Excel 2010 :: Random Numbers In One Function

Jul 22, 2012

I'm currently working on my masters dissertation and am using excel 2010.

Basically, I'm trying to generate a list of say, 1000 numbers within a range. I can already do this using the rand() function. However, I need excel to take each random number, apply it into a formula, and then list the answers in a seperate location. This would be easy to do if there was one simple function (which i could just insert into any adjacent cell). The problem is that each random number value is input into a table. The table, which has about 10 columns and 200+ rows, gives one final answer.

I'm sure there has to be a faster way than creating 1000 tables for each random number generated.

Let's say I have a list of 1000 random numbers in sheet 1. the function table is in sheet 2 and produces the answer in the same sheet, in a single cell. I'd like excel to use each random number generated, input it into the function table, attain the answer from the table, and list it in the cell next to the random number.

Macro To Copy And Place Data To Specific Place

Feb 22, 2007

I am after a macro to do the following, my visual basic skills are very limited (non existant):- Look at the date in cell A1 on Sheet 'Live Report' and err 'remember it' Copy a range of cells from A3 to A10 on 'Live Report' Go to sheet 'Monthly Summary' and find the date that had been remembered previously (this date will be in column A on 'Monthly Summary' which will probably be a mixture of values and formulas). After the date has been found paste special and transpose the 'values only' copied range from 'Live Report' (A3 to A10) in column B on 'Monthly Summary' next to the date that has been found in Column A.

Fill In The 3 Criteria Fields, Calculate The Result, Copy The Result, And Place It Into The Correct Place On The Table

Oct 19, 2006

I have a macro that imputs data from an external database and puts it into a temporary worksheet. This data has 3 columns (ID, Date, Amount). I am then making another sheet which has X number of tables (one for each ID), with the years being the column headings, and months being the row headings. ie.

| ID X
| +------+------+------+--->
| | 1999 | 2000 | 2001 |
+------+------+------+------+--->
| Jan | $100 | $250 | $300 |
+------+------+------+------+--->
| Feb | $200 | $300 | $200 |
+------+------+------+------+--->
| Mar | $300 | $250 | $100 |
+------+------+------+------+--->
| Sum | $600 | $800 | $600 |
| +------+------+------+--->

| ID Y
| +------+------+------+--->
| | 1999 | 2000 | 2001 |
+------+------+------+------+--->
| Jan | $100 | $250 | $300 |
+------+------+------+------+--->
| Feb | $200 | $300 | $200 |
+------+------+------+------+--->
| Mar | $300 | $250 | $100 |
+------+------+------+------+--->
| Sum | $600 | $800 | $600 |
| +------+------+------+--->

Currently I have a few hidden fields for the DSUM Criteria. I start making the tables. And then filling in table based off of the month and year. Doing so I need 3 criteria:
>= First Day of the Month
<= Last Day of the Month
= ID #

The problem is it takes Excel too long to fill in the 3 criteria fields, calculate the result, copy the result, and place it into the correct place on the table. Is there another way to get this data into the correct tables faster? Instead of using DSUM?

Generate Random Numbers In Random Cells

I am working on a Random Cycle Count Generator that provides random SKU#s based on 3 separate columns of SKU listings. The user clicks a button to generate the SKU#s to cycle count for that day. What I would like to see is a date stamp in the columns next(B,D,F) to the referenced SKU listing(A,C,E) based on which SKU#s are generated. This will let me see the last date that the SKU was generated. I would also like it to automatically save after generating.

Advanced Filter With Function As Criteria Range

Feb 27, 2008

I have a worksheet with 6000 rows (W1), and another with 2500 rows (W2).
I need to check whether the values of W2 are found in the second column of W1. As in if(iserror(search(valuex,worksheet2!B2)),"",A2) ---> resulting in something like:
If the value is found in the cell B2 of column B on W1, then return its reference which you find in A2, otherwise leave a blank.

I need to check all 2500 values in all 6000 rows.

I know for sure that I will have limited hits (max of 200) so I would like to create a list on W2 (the values) where I check if they are found in W1 and return only the 'hits'. I would like to filter out the blanks.

YOu can filter the blanks, I know, but you need to have a 'full' version (I thought) with all the blanks and the hits and then and only then you can filter.
But is there a way how I can use the advanced filter, with a criteria range using a function. Something like: criteria range --> if(iserror(search(valuex,worksheet2!B2)),"",A2) is not equal to "".

Summarizing Function That Will Filter By Product Key And Date

Aug 5, 2014

I created a large table with data (1700 lines long) and am looking to create a sheet that will use it to do a call for totals whilst filtering for a specific line.

This is what I have currently, filtered by delivery date and key ("furniture desc").

The 58 and 54 are totals for that particular product which I would like to ideally see on a separate sheet.

result1.JPG
result 1a.JPG

What I would like to achieve is this: result2.JPG

What kind of formula would I need to use to first filter by date, then by key, then to tally up the quantities and drop them on another sheet?

Bearing in mind that other keys are intertwined on the Y axis so I can't use =SUM(xx:xx)

Count Unique Results: Function &lt;&gt; Filter

Dec 27, 2007

Data: four variables A,B,C and D from A2:D6000

I want a count of unique D values
when A=xxx
and B=yyy
and C=zzz

I have named the A,B,C,D ranges as RangeA, RangeB, RangeC, RangeD

I have used the function

=SUM((RangeA="xxx")*
(RangeB="yyy")*
(RangeC="zzz")*

But what do I use to count-unique values of variable D ?

=SUM(IF(FREQUENCY(RangeD,RangeD)>0,1)) doesn't work.
=SUM(1/COUNTIF(RangeD,RangeD&"")) doesn't work either

They don't work because D can occur during different combinations of A,B and C. In other words, the D value of 'Smith' can, and does, occur when A is 1,2 or 3 and additionally when B is Pass, Fail, Withdrawn.

They "don't work" because I can use filters on A, B, C and D to see what the correct answer should be .. and the function doesn't return the correct answer.

I hope I've explained this ok - I've been searching on several excel-help websites for 2 days now and one of the days my client is going to want some results.

Filter Function Not Returning Correct Results In The Code?

Mar 20, 2013

In an excel sheet, I am using a macro to filter. Macro code is as follows. When I run this macro, it returns 4 rows matching the criteria from 560 rows in the excel sheet.

VB:
ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$I$566").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:= _
">=11/11/2012 22:13", Operator:=xlAnd, Criteria2:="<=11/12/2012 6:47"

I want to use the same criteria in the vb.net code, to do same thru vb.net. But, when I run the same code in vb.net, it just returns only 1 row (1st row only).

VB:
[FONT=Consolas][SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff]xlsRange1.AutoFilter(Field:=1, Criteria1:=">=11/11/2012 22:13", Operator:=Excel.XlAutoFilterOperator.xlAnd, Criteria1:="<=11/12/2012 6:47")

This returns 1 instead of 4 expected.

Copy And Paste Function Messes Up Because Of Custom Sort / Filter?

Jun 5, 2013

what I do with excel: I have an excel sheet that has over 18,000 rows in it. Since it would be a nightmare to scroll around to find what I want, I use the Custom Sort and Filter options under Editing>Sort&Filter. So for example, I can omit 17,800 rows using a specific setting so that I can work with a more reasonable 200 rows. Moreover, the 200 rows comes from all over the spreadsheet. Meaning their row numbers are not always consecutive.

Here's the problem: Whenever I try to copy anything from this "edited or filtered" excel sheet, the resulting paste is not an exact copy. Excel perfectly copies the first rows up until the point where the row numbers ceases to be consecutive. So, the copy function messes up somehow when the data being copied comes from a different section of the original 18,000 rows.

In case this isn't clear enough...

Let's say that the original file has rows 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

Once I filter/custom sort, I see rows 1,2,3,8,9,10

When I try to copy/paste 2,3,8,9, excel copies 2,3, but messes up the rest of the 8,9. And I end up with a totally useless copy that's generally shorter than it's supposed to be.
