Referencing A Cell Based On Position Of Another Cell

Jan 23, 2009

Right now cell B7 is referencing cell D3. However I want this to be dynamic in the sense that suppose I change the Phase 2 (which starts from ww3 (cell D3)) to ww5 (cell F3) then I would like that B7 should also get updated to F3 instead of D3.

Basically the Development phase of "Support" Project starts only when Phase 2 of "Project 1" starts.

ww = Work Week.

In short cell B7 should always be in sync with the ww of Phase 2 of Project 1.

Formula For Cell Value Based On Reference Or Position

Jun 23, 2009

HTML Imagine the following table (Ax, etc is the cell position):

A1=John C1=Name D1=Date E1=Version F1=IP
A2=10/2/2008 C2=A1 D2=A2 .... ....
A3=Client version 7.01 C3=A1+5pos D3=A2+5pos
A4=172.24.3.5 C4=A1+10pos D4=A2+10pos

A6=Michael
A7=10/2/2009
A8=Client version 7.03
A9=172.24.3.80

A11=Susan
A12=2/2/2007
A13=Client version 7.02
A14=172.24.3.200

I have a table of data on the left side and I want to re-organize just like the right side. Let's take C2 as an example, the value for that cell = A1;
Now, C3 in the other hand, the value for that cell = A1 + 5 positions down;
C4 = A1 + 10 positions down;. The same type of formula applies for the remaining columns on the right. This seems like an easy solution, but it's not easy when you don't know it... :

Referencing Range Of Cells Based On Value In Another Cell?

Jun 28, 2014

I have multiple sets of data that i need to reference based on the value in another cell. In this instance I am importing data to Excel from an outside source, this data is not consistent each time I import it and therefore based on the values that are imported I need to reference different cell ranges. Here is an example:

Import Data
A B
Alex 1
Ben 2
April 2
Harry 3

Data Sets
Alex Data Range
1 2 3
Refine Help Token
Cover Safe Coin
Simple Aware Change

Ben Data Range
1 2 3
Sorry Away Candy
Happy Home Soda
Mad Neutral Water

My problem is that based on the name in column 1 of the import data I need to reference that data range so I obtain the correct column of Alex's data range with a random chance of any item in the column to be selected. Currently my formula looks like this: =INDEX(CELL("contents",A1),RANDBETWEEN(1,3),B1) and it is returning #VALUE, however when I put the Range Name "ALEX" in in place of the "CELL" formula it works properly the problem is I am not able to put the correct name in for each row.

Referencing Cell Based On User Input That Corresponds To VLookup

Jun 26, 2014

So my issue this time is that I have a bunch of columns that correspond to a month. If the user wants to view data from that month column then they have to link to that cell specifically (the worksheet being used is different than the one in which the month columns are)

My goal was to create a single cell in which the user typed in a month abbreviation such as jan, feb, mar.. so on and so forth. From there they correspond to a vlookup table which tells you which month is in what column (because that part never changes) so jan is in column c and feb is in column d... continuing until december is in column n. So the vlookup corresponds to the table and that works fine, type jan into the cell and the vlookup returns c. So i think this will work.

My problem is that in the cell I am typing this in I want it to be a part of a whole cell reference such as c5 or d7 where the 5 or 7 is a constant (I have that part down) however the reference is to another sheet. So in sheet 2 I want to reference sheet 1 i.e.

Formula: [Code].....

<-- is the desired return.

Right now (in sheet 2) I have

Formula: [Select Code] .....

Which returns the desired d5 but as text and not referencing sheet one. I tried

Formula: [Code]....

But this makes the vlookup malfunction (i think it starts looking in sheet 1 for the month cell but it is not and can not be there.

SO how do i force a vlookup to turn into a cell reference, and how do i make that cell reference come from a different worksheet without causing the vlookup to malfunction.

Worksheet Referencing And Position Recognition

Jun 4, 2009

I have a bit of a complicated one here so I have attached my book, its probably easier to undertstand the query by looking at the book. Hopefully somebody can help me out here.

I have 2 worksheets:

A results worksheet - this contains all category of results, each category has been given a specific sort id.

A foreign worksheet - this contains all categories found on the results worksheet with sort id = 7.

Now the complicated bit. The whole exercise is too pick up the correct exchange rate for the foreign category (sort id 7). each foreign type has a specific number at the end of its description in brackets e.g (3).

At the bottom of the "results worksheet" is a key which says what type of exchange rate to use for this type e.g. (3) Price of CAD 22.9 converted using exchange rate of CAD 1.9645 = £1.

What I need to do is on the foreign worksheet, it to recognise the number in the item description, keep it in mind then switch over to the "results worksheet" find the keys at the bottom of the page (the key is not necessarily in the same place all the time!!), match the number in the items description with the corresponding key and then find the exchange rate.

As i said very difficult to explain, since I reletively zero experience with this kind of work in excel. Luckily I been muddling my way through a work project gradually thanks to a forum member here. so i hope we can keep this up!

edit:
two restrictions in the way this solution can be done:
1- Results worksheet can not be modified, but it can be referenced to using INDIRECT, and you can make any number of modifications outside of the results worksheet.
2. Any solution must be automatic.
/edit

I have attached my workbook and highlighted the bits I need to fill and the picks I need to pick up.

Would be ever so grateful if some1 could show me the light here.

Maintaining Cell Reference According To Its Physical Position From Formula Cell?

Jan 29, 2014

I need to make a cell display the contents of the cell immediately below it, regardless of if there are rows inserted at the referenced row or above or below it on the worksheet. ALSO I need to do this at several additional cell locations down the worksheet. Such as : A1 displays A2, A4 displays A5, A7 displays A8 etc.

Example: I want A1 to display whatever is in the cell immediately below it. In this case A2. I need to be able to insert several rows at row 2 and have whatever new value is now in the A2 position displayed in A1.
After the rows are inserted I need the cell that was in position A4 to continue to display the contents of the cell below it.

I tried using the formula in A1 of: =INDIRECT("A2") and it works good except when I insert the rows my similar formulas below the area where the rows were inserted continue to refer to the specific original cell and not the one positioned now below it.

Adding Up Cell Position Not Values In Cell

Mar 30, 2009

I have a spreadsheet with two columns and 39900 rows, from that data I want to create two new columns so cell C1 = A143 and D1 = B143, C2=A286, D1=B286, and so on. The row location increases by 143.

The simplest thing I tried to do was to say C1=A1+142, but (knowing it is wrong) I get a #value error.

How can I tell excel to grab these values located every 144 rows below and create two new columns?

Referencing Cell And Filtering Causes Cell Referenced To Change

Jul 10, 2014

Warhammer Quick Reference Desktop.xlsx

Its on book 2.

I'm trying to reference the Cryptek total that I got in the previous area, and put that result into the grand total army point formula. When I reference the solution cell, or even copy and paste the very same equation into it, and then proceed to filter the referenced cells change...

The obvious solution that i thought would work is write =D45 next to Cryptek in the point value column, then if I filter it SHOULD maintain the information from D45 except it doesn't.

How To Check Particular Position In A Cell

Oct 9, 2013

have an assignment to complete and one of the tasks I found impossible to complete. First condition is that it should be completed with a formula (not VBA). So here is the task - I have different cells with IBAN codes in them. The 14th position in the IBAN is used to identify the currency of the account. There are 3 possible numbers - 0, 1 and 2 and each is for different currency. So I have this table where I need to lookup the 14th character in the cell with the IBAN, from there the formula needs not only to check what the number is (0,1 or 2) but also to compare it to another table from where to decide which is the currency. I tried various combinations with FIND/SEARCH but can't find a way to do it.. and I can't find other functions/formulas that can isolate a particular character position in a cell..

Referring To A Cell For The Row Position On A Formula

Jul 8, 2008

I'm trying to find the details required to refer to contents of a cell and then treat the value as the formula. IE for Sum(B5:B8), i'd like to have two cells, one with a 5 in it and one with the 8.

I know its possible if i put "b5" as the cell content using indirect - but I'll be using the same cell value to update formulas in different columns so I cant afford to include the B. I assume theres a very simple method along the lines of Sum((B&(Cell(a4)):B&(Cell(a5)))?

Add Position Shape To Cell Location

Dim LastRow2 As Long
Windows("SCFOutput.xlsm").Activate
Sheets("Q2SCNeg").Select
Columns("A:B").Select

ActiveSheet. Range("A65536").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Select
LastRow2 = ActiveCell.Row - 1
For Each c In Worksheets("Q2SCNeg").Range("A2:A" & LastRow2).Cells
MsgBox ActiveCell.Value
Next c

i did this but it selects the first blank row (row 15) and gives me an empty message box 14 times (which is right, but i need 14 values) the reason i need the loop is because the number ov values will always change

Referencing Another Cell 12 Rows Below That Cell And So On

Sep 16, 2013

In excel, how do I set a reference cell and then have in the next cell, the reference cell + 12 rows below the reference cell? And, then in the following cell, 12 rows below the last cell, and so on. I have a guess that you would use the offset function, but I would like to be able to set the reference cell once and then have each cell following the reference cell to pull data from the sheet that the reference cell is on in increments of 12 rows below the reference cell. What is the excel code to do this?

Obtaining Varying Position Cell Value From Different Sheet?

Jan 21, 2014

I want to automate the process of updating my football stats and have delved into getting my data from the web. I have managed to import a football league onto my "standings" sheet but I want my "strengths" sheet to read it's values from this new "standings" sheet.

The "standings" sheet is broken down into 2 tables (home & away) one above the other.

The values I want are Home Games, Away Games, Home Goals For, Away Goals For, Home Goals Against And Away Goals Against from both the home table and the away table. The main problem I have is that the cell information I need is likely to change as I update the league tables from the web. So say one week Team A's data is in row 7 the following week it could be in row 8 so i need the data to correlate with the team name cell in my "strengths" sheet.

So at the moment Atromitos Home games (cell B8 on my strengths sheet) needs the value from cell C8 on my "standings" sheet but by next week it could need the value from C9.

Ps I am assuming that I can just just hit the refresh button on the ribbon and the data from the web site will update. Is this correct?

Calculate Screen Pixel Position Of Cell AA1

Jul 7, 2014

I have an image overlapping a range of cells. I want this code to scan the pixel at the center of the cell, find out what color it is, and set the entire cell to that color, for each cell. Unfortunately with the GetPixel function I have to specify the x and y coordinates in terms of pixels from the top left corner of my monitor. The "CurrentCell.left & CurrentCell.top" method is not giving me the right location (Should start at cell AA1). If you would like, open up the file, go to sheet 2, insert an image, and click "Generate Field from Image". I set the cursor to follow the current position so you can see that it is selecting pixels from the corner of my monitor rather than cell AA1. Is there a way I can calculate the screen position of the top left of cell AA1?
