Is there any way to refer to a cell that is directly to the left of the current cell?
I need to create a Comma-Separated Value file with the Excel formula in the CSV file. Because of this, I do not know the current cell location, but want to do something like =(Cell directly to the left of me) + (Cell two cells to the left of me)
I have 5 columns set up: A,B,C,D,E
D is the sum of A and B
E is the sum of A,B,and C
As I add in a new column to the right of C (call it C2), I need D (which has shifted over one) to sum A,B, and C.
I also need E (which has also shifted over one) to sum A,B,C, and C2.
Essentially I need a function in a cell that will be able to reference two cells to the left even as more cells are added.
I have got this working so far:
=LOOKUP(D9,'Financial Snapshot'!$H$5:$I$95)
D9 = 1.01
D10 = 1.02 etc

I have a 2010 excel sheet containing 14 columns and 45082 rows in total. I am quite illiterate when it comes to writing macros but I know that what I need can be achieved with a set of codes.
To be more clear, I inserted two tables below. The first one represents the current data structure, and the second one is the way I want my data to look like.
Current data structure looks like
Variable 1
Variable 2
Variable 3

generally vlookup function gives a value from the right side cell. is it is possible to display a cell from the left side. in the attached excel file i want the numbers against the cell which contains mom.....
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've a sheet that presents the profitability of sales locations in a geographic layout (similar to Tables in a restaurant), each sales location is a cell, with roughly 1,600 locations presented. Each location is colour coded based on performance / measure, in a basic thermographic way [e.g. dark blue for very poor, solid red for high performance] with users being able to change metrics and re-colour cells accordingly.
The sheet is already information rich, but I'm wanting to detect the cell address directly under the pointer and populate a text box or other cell based on the value in the cell directly below the mouse pointer.
My question is; Is there a simple way of detecting the mouse position on the XL Grid? nb. Want to avoid having to activate cell beneath pointer.
Lets say we have prices in column (B) and in column (F) I want to insert a formula that says:
In the same row, look at cell in column (B). If price is between 1000 and 8000 then put 2.00 if price is between 500-999 then put 0.50 if price is between 1-499 then put 0.00
I need to achieve this using something like =OFFSET(INDIRECT(ADDRESS(ROW(), COLUMN())),0,-1) but I am not sure how its done.
I will be using this formula in a find and replace macro. So I can NOT make the typical drag and fill formula.
I have disabled edit directly in cell in the option menu so that when i double click it goes to source file.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've populated a temporary worksheet with several columns of data. In this example my Amount Column has several null cells. What I need to do is write a macro to find any nulls and populate the nulls with the data in the last populated cell above it.
Example: the four empty cells below Account (524150) also need to be populated with 524150. The cell immediately below 524200 also needs to be populated with 524200 and the 3 empty cells below 512800 also need to be populated with 512800. Week to week the number of rows will change and the nulls will also change.
I need to create a long series of checkboxes in which each box is linked to the cell directly to the right of it. When I try to copy and past the checkbox, the link doesn't update. Which means I have to go in manually and change every checkbox link.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a column that is giving unwanted value . dont know the reason as that excel file has been created by some other guy and I just started working on it .
My Question is how to move to 2 cells left(A for example) from from that unwanted value column. and check if
A is equal to cell above it , means B Cell(Row above A but same column).
As my excel file is totally based on Forms, Macros, I am not quite familiar with macros.
Is there any way to put if condition in one cell (column) and drag it all the way down which should work for all the values in these 3 column.
And also if A=B then I want to make that unwanted value cell="".
How do I change a formula cell reference based on another cell's reference? I'm building a schedule that looks to a task's trigger and adds days based on that relationship. All entries in column "A" will be text and all cells in "B" will be the simple formula "=A2" or "=A3". Due date is calculated by adding the value in "C" to the preceding date in column "D". In the spreadsheet below, the trigger for "Budget set" is "Specs written" with 3 days added to the previous due date.
________A________________B_____________C_________D
1 Task___________Trigger_____________Days_____Due Date
2 Design begins__Proj OK______________10____10-Jan
3 Specs written__Design begins (A2)____5____15-Jan (D2+C3)
4 Budget set_____Specs written (A3)____3____18-Jan (D3+C4)
If the trigger for A4, "Budget set", changed from A3 to A2, is there a way that the formula that determines the due date in D4 could read the trigger cell reference in B4 so that the value in the corresponding row in column "C" is added in the date column?
I am having trouble filling a formulae series to the left on one spreadsheet, the fomulae being references to another sheet.
For example, I have two sheets 'Mtce Options' and 'Base Case'. In 'Mtce Options' I have the following formulae
A B C
1='Base Case'!A15='Base Case'!D15='Base Case'!G15
I want to fill to the left, incrementing the column references by a factor of 2 each time, eg. next two should be ='Base Case'!J15 and ='Base Case'!M15.
However, if I autofill to the left by highlighting A1, B1 and C1 or just B1 and C1 all I get is an inappropriate reference such as ='Base Case'!D15 or ='Base Case'!F15, respectively, in D15.

EXAMPLE:
12 months of data exist in cells B3:M3 going from B3(oldest) to M3(newest). Formulas reference latest 6 months of data in cells H3:M3. When a new month hits, I insert a column after column M.I would like the formulas to now reference cells I3:N3 which is now the newest 6 months.
I have a workbook with 1000+ worksheets, all of which have 3-letter names. On a master sheet, I would like to make a query of how many non-empty cells there are on a subsidiary worksheet. This works:
Code:
=COUNTA(ABC!A:A)
What I'd like to do from time to time is input in column A a varying set of 3-letter worksheet names, say
AAB
ABC
CDE
And have a formula in column B that converts this to
=COUNTA(AAB!A:A)
=COUNTA(ABC!A:A)
=COUNTA(CDE!A:A)
I've learned that simply substituting the cell references A1, A2, A3 for AAB, ABC and CDE doesn't work. What do I need to do to achieve this?
Let's say I've ended up with the number 8 in Cell D4 for example. Is there a formula that can return the letter "G" (The 8th Column) so I can use it in future cell references ? If so, let's say we store that in Cell B5. How do I now refer to a cell in a chosen Row of that same Column by reference to Cell B5 ? For example if I want to refer to Cell G33 can you refer to this Cell in some form like Cell(Contents of Cell B5;33) ??? Don't want to use R1C1 type references if possible.

I've been pounding away at a project for two days trying to determine a way to identify a solution, to no avail.
Here is some experimental code. Under the assumption that in Column "A", every fifth line contains some text (a, b, c, etc) I want to place a function in column B that would identify the closest occupied cell above and to the left of the cell containing the function. The sub achieves this, but the function has a problem because of the Activecell line. Is there a way to identify the location of the cell containing the function to act as a reference point for the range?
Sub find_last_heading()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
x = ActiveCell.Address
ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1).Select
last_heading = ActiveCell.Text

last_heading = ActiveCell.Text
Loop
MsgBox last_heading

I was wondering if it's possible to unhide a row directly below one that is visible?
I am creating a template for users that allows them to choose which lines (rows) they would like to use. They then hit a button to hide all the other lines they don't wish to use.
For each row that is visible I then need the row directly below it to become visible so that the user can enter associated information.
I'm stumped on how to do it. I have the user entering "a" in column A for any row they wish to keep - but I'm not sure how to incorporate this into unhiding the row below (or if I'm on the wrong track with my thinking).
I want to grab everything left of the last occurrence of "." in a string, and in the next cell everything right of the last occurrence of "."

I need a single cell to contain two elements, one left aligned and the other right aligned.
Result would look something like this, LeftText aligned to the left side of the cell and RightText aligned to right side of the same cell.
LeftText {all of the white space here between two text values} RightText
Merging columns is not an option; both values must be in same cell. Both text values vary in length with each run of the code.
All I can do as of now is plug in a bunch of spaces that will approximate the open space between the two values.
