I would like to reference information from another workbook. Instead of writing the Name of the other workbook I would like to reference through a Concatenate formula (e.g. CONCATENATE("Test"&G2&".xls")). I always get an error message. Is there any way I can reference from another workbook by using the Concatenate or any other formula?
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to check if a workbook can be used in some processes later and whithout opening the other workbook. is it possible. i have done this
str_prod_PT = Application. GetOpenFilename
If str_prod_PT <> "FALSE" Then
If Workbooks(str_prod_PT). Sheets(1). Range("A1").Value <> "Ordem" Then
MsgBox "Ficheiro incompativel", vbCritical
Else
TextBox1.Value = str_prod_PT

I have to refer the content of a text box in a formula.
The Text box and the cell containing the formula will be in
the same worksheet.
Is this possible first of all? I searched the excel help in and out
and I could not find a way for this.
"Smith B" is text in C1.
My current formula in C3 is a simple reference to a cell in another workbook:
=+'Z:Time Records2007[Smith B.xls]Daily Time'!$C1352
I would the formula to refer to C1 to get the "Smith B" part.
This would allow me to copy the formula to the right and reference different text as it looks at D1, E1, F1, etc.
To say it another way. I want to know if there's a way to make a formula that would result in looking at the file Smith B.xls by inserting a refernce to C1 in it?
=+'Z:Time Records2007["C1".xls]Daily Time'!$C1352
Currently I have a code that names a worksheet automatically with the date the first entry was keyed in. The problem is that I'd like to create a formula that would not be affected whatever the names of these sheets might be. There are 21 sheets, the last sheet would be the one containing the formula adding cell values from the preceeding 20 sheets. I've been scratching my head with this for a while now trying to come up with a workaround solution.
HTML Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim dateTemp As Date
ActiveSheet.Names.Add Name:="timestamp", RefersTo:=Now()
dateTemp = Val(Mid(ActiveSheet.Names("timestamp"), 2))
'Sheet is given a default name until the first entry.
'The name is changed to the date the entry was made.
If ActiveSheet.Name = "DAY01" Then
ActiveSheet.Name = Format(dateTemp, "MMM dd.hh.ss")
End If
End Sub
I have a problem with bringing up the data I need to cells in one row.
In row 1 I have dates:
23-Nov 24-Nov 25-Nov 26-Nov etc.
In row 2 Quantities:
2000 1500 250 750 etc.
In row 3 I have dates again (I need to start working towards these qty's): 20-Nov 22-Nov 25-Nov 25/Nov. I would like in column A of 4 row to sum all the qty's (row 2) if the date in row 3 is the same or smaller than in row 1 column A. But in column B and forward I want cells to sum qty's if the date in row 3 is the same as the one in row 1. I have tried : =sumproduct((A3:D3<=A1),(A2:D2)) for cell A4
and: =sumproduct((A3:D3=B1),(A2:D2)) for cell B4 and consequently for others. It comes back as zero value even if I see matching dates/qty's. Does anyone know what shall I change in my formula to make it right?
Is there a preferred way of referring to the Workbook or worksheet which is hosting the macro.
For example say I have the following Macro:
Sub test()
Dim MyHostMacroWorksheet As Workbook
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Set MyHostMacroWorksheet = Workbooks(1)
MsgBox (MyHostMacroWorksheet.Name)
'Works only if macro was inside first workbook opened
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Set MyHostMacroWorksheet = Workbooks("foobar.xls")
MsgBox (MyHostMacroWorksheet.Name)
'Works but have to modify every time I copy code from workbook to workbook
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
End Sub

I have a string variable that I want to make available to all modules. The string variable is a listbox.value. In a Userform I have users select a file from a list of files. This particular selection should then be used in a module of the project. Unfortunately, a Public statement can't be used in a class module to declare a fixed-length string variable. Is there any other way to make this variable available to the module?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am writing a macroI have three variables named "name", " book", and "count". In previous statements these variables have all been defined as String, String, Integer respectively. I am trying to uses all of these variables in the same formula and am encountering issues. The formula I wish to use it in is:

I have a time in cell C10 in hh:mm format, in cell D10 I want to add the text "DFL" in front of the time, remove the ":" and add "HRS." at the end of it. For example "DFL0715HRS." I have been able to get the following formula to work:
=CONCATENATE("DFL",(TEXT(C10,"hhmm")),"HRS.")
However sometimes it may not be a time, it could also be "Rest Day" in cell C10, if it says "Rest Day" I need it to add the text "DFL" in front as before and then change "Rest Day" to "RDFLEXI." For example "DFLRDFLEXI." I have been able to get the following formula to work but only if it is "Rest Day", if it is a time such as 07:15 it doesn't work.
It shows "DFL07157R0.": =CONCATENATE("DFL",IF(C10="Rest Day","RDFLEXI.",(TEXT(C10,"hhmm"&"HRS."))))
I think it is trying to continue doing something with the text function

I am attempting to use concatenate to combine two cells of data, but to only display the information if both cells contain information.
Currently using the following simple formula:
=concatenate(a1,a2)
However, I only want it to work if both a1 and a2 cells contain data. If only a1 contains information, but a2 is blank, I want it to calculate a blank cell.
