Result In The Formula Editor Box Is Wrong

Nov 25, 2007

I can't seem to tell if my formula isn't correct in concept, or if this is a known problem with Excel 2000?

I have written a short formula that is pretty straightforward, but is giving a different result in Excel's "Formula Editor" box (when you hit the = button) than is showing in the cell itself. The Formula Editor's result is showing as "TRUE" which is what I believe is the correct value, but the cell itself is showing the "FALSE" result of a different incorrect value.

More Than 1 Cell As Search Range: Result Is Wrong

Apr 6, 2009

i've been using an IF function in order to display a certain value when one or more criteria are met in one cell in one specific worksheet. here's how it looks like:

=IF(OR(ISNUMBER(SEARCH("value1",Worksheet1!A1)),ISNUMBER(SEARCH("Value2",Worksheet1!A1))),"yes","no" )

with different values and names.. but it's just to give you the idea of what kind of function it is. this one works perfectly, but i also needed another one in which the logical test range is no longer only one cell, but more, thus a selection. i wrote the same formula, but instead of the "A1" i wrote for example "A1:A20" which i thought it would work.. but it doesn't. even more surprising, when i open the insert function (the helping wizard that pops up when i click the "fx" button on the left of the function string) and i put in the logical test, at the bottom of the window it says the correct result (ie: yes). but on the actual worksheet, the cell displays the wrong result (no). i know there are no errors in the formula, so i really don't know how to solve the problem.

VLOOKUP Formula Dragdown Copies Previous Cell Result Instead Of Unique Result

Jun 10, 2014

When I drag my VLOOKUP formula down a column in Excel 2010, the return value copies the formula result from the original VLOOKUP formula result. For example, if the first VLOOKUP returns a value of 0.5, I expect to see 0.5 or 1 in the cell below that one. However, I get 0.5 which is not the expected result for the cell below.

When, I click the fx on the cells below, the expected return values appear in the formula result. After I click OK, the expected formula results updates and now appears in the cell.

I'm not sure what is causing this issue. My computer was updated recently from an old machine to a new one. I have never experienced this issue before.

Copy Formula Result & Paste Value/Result Only

Sep 3, 2006

I created a simple auto numbering function whereby Cell A7 contained =Row()-6, and Cell A8 contained =(A7+1). I then shift, and pasted the contents of cell A8 until cell A600. My aim is to simply copy the increments of 1 - 600 into another column. However when i copy and paste i'm also copying the initial underlying formula ie: =( A?+1), Is there a way to copy the results, not the formula?

IF Formula Evaluates To Wrong Value

I have the following formula: IF(SELL_INVESTMENT = "YES" , 1,2) It returns not 1 or 2 but 0. The worksheet contains over 1000 cells. Trace Precedents verifies that the formula evaluates the correct cell and that it contains "yes". I created a very simple worksheet to test the formula and here it correctly returns 1.

IF Formula Returning Wrong Answer

May 1, 2014

I am trying to determine if I can write a formula that will read text in one cell, such as insurance and if true enter the amount from another cell and if false then 0. I have tried a IF statement by add the text to name manager. However, the answer is 0 rather than the amount in the selected cell. I might need to use a different formula or function.

Formula Evaluate To The Wrong Conclusion

Nov 21, 2008

In cell A1 is 13.00, the result of a formula.
In cell A2 is the formula =IF(A1>14.00,True,False)
The result of this formula is TRUE
In cell A3 is the formula =15-A1
The result of this formula is 2

why the formula in cell A2 would evaluate to the wrong conclusion? All cells are formated as numbers.

Formula Referencing Wrong Cell

Aug 16, 2006

This does almost exactlly what I want. The one problem that I have is that the active cell remains B1 as it enters the formula in the rest of column B. I need it to refer to the row that it is entering the formulas; meaning each formula entered in B2,3,4, etc. is still referencing cells A1 & D1 for sBook & a sFilePath.

Dim sBook As String
Dim sFilePath As String
Dim sLen As Long

Range("B1").Select
sBook = ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1)
sFilePath = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 2)
sLen = Range("A1").End(xlDown).Row

Range("B1").Formula = "='" & sFilePath & "[" & sBook & ".xls]Sheet1'!R1C1"
Range("B1", Cells(sLen, 2)).Formula = Range("B1").Formula

Match Formula Returning Wrong Row Number

Nov 1, 2006

I have a spreadsheet, with a Match Formula, that appears not to work. It looks at cell F1, and scans through cell C2:C14, and want it to return the relevant row in Column B (My work network will not allow me to upload the file). Cell F1 is the name of the sheets within the workbook (one for every month). However my data currently only has Apr - Jun, but when I choose month May, the formula feturns Month June.

Lookup Formula Started Returning Wrong Letters

Jul 17, 2013

I am using the formula: LOOKUP(A1,{"S","M","L","XL"},{"S","M","L","XL"}) on a cell containing: EF-2147.(S) so that it will return a S [or M, L etc. if it were .(M),.(L)] but it just keeps returning #N/A. I tried putting in "(S)" etc. in the lookup formula but it then started returning the wrong letters.

Wrong Data Type Error In Simple Array Formula

Jun 30, 2013

I am trying to use FIND and an array formula to find the position of text in a range of cells (A2 and A3 in the example) which could be one of a number of options (C1:D1 here). But the array formula throws up the following error: "A value used in the formula is of the wrong data type". The simplest illustration of the problem is as follows. The formula in B2 is

Code:
{=FIND(($C$1:$D$1),A2)}
and $C$1:$D$1 contain REF and ATM respectively. [/CODE]
REF
ATM
203047 05AUG 08.55 OKEHAMPTON ATM
#VALUE!
CO-OP GROUP 380611 REF 191 7553375222 BCC
22

We see that B2 has a #VALUE! error - wrong data type. But for some reason B3 is ok returning 22!

Formula Cell Showing Formula Not Result

Aug 24, 2006

I know this is an easy one but I'm unsure why I can't easily modify a formula. The key event in this formula is "+190". Every time I change the value the formula no longer works. I've copied to another cell and the formula no longer works. My question is when you have a formula like this one if you have to modify how do you do it and keep the formula working.

Vba Editor Freezing

Feb 12, 2007

I am having problems with the VBA Editor freezing at the most inconvenient of times when writing code and then clicking to the Sheet I'm working on, it just freezes up the whole of Excel and it has to be shut down and opened up again.

It seems like a memory problem at first, but there is sufficient memory
( 768Mgs, OS is XP Pro, Excel 2000, 9.02).

The work is not lost becuase I'm able to Save even at PC Re-boot, fortunately.

I've tested on 2 different PC's and the same happens. The only way to avoid the freeze it seems, is before I switch to view a worksheet, is to Save then click off VBA Editor and re-open.
When doing so, another symptom is it seems a huge amount of memory is freed up, ( pardon the terminology)

There is also a message that pops up when re-opening that same workbook that there are Formulas Linked to another workbook, but unable to find any after tediously searching every worksheet by using "Find, Look in Formula" there is nothing found, yet.

This freezing may happen twice a minute whilst pointing the mouse cursor from any VBA Edit window or worksheet and it's getting to a point of repetitiously having to Save, click off VBA Editor, and Click back on again each time I need to look at a respective Worksheet.

DLL Error When Opening VB Editor

Jun 18, 2014

When I open my excel file and go to the VBA editor there is a pop up telling me that there is a dll error. So, I can't access none of my code or run any of them.

In the tools menu and references it says : "MISSING : Microsoft PowerPoint 14.0 Object Library". When I unchech this box and close the menu, it checks itself back.

Edit : I have Microsoft PowerPoint 12.0 Object Library also in my references list.

Remove A Project From VBA/VBE Editor

Oct 10, 2006

is it possible to remove a VBE project from the VBE editor? This is a project that is opened as a read-only workbook, and then converted into an addin (essentially just to hide the worksheets). It therefore shows in the VBE editor but is in neither the add-ins or workbooks collections. This file is basically used as a source for data for another charts workbook. I need to clear this out of the VBE editor so as to reload an updated version of this workbook every so often.

Is it possible to check, with VBA code running some sort of "If" function in the background in an open workbook within which the VBA code is placed, whether a user is opening (or attempting to open) the VBA Editor? This should see any attempt being made, whether the user uses Tools>Macro>Visual Basic Editor, Alt + F11 or right clicking on the Excel icon top left to "View Code".

Display Formula Not Formula Result?

May 2, 2012

I have a s/s which is built on IF functions and references other sheets and I have used the s/s in the past without issue. However now I want to ammend the formula a little and excel will only display the formula itself, not the result of the formula. I have tried CTRL ~ to turn on/off the show formula function but this makes no difference.

My reason for changeing the current formula is that I need to turn a 2 (numeric) to 02 (which can be either numeric or text). This is the new formula.

=IF($A4="","",IF(VLOOKUP($A4,HCGTH1_DATA,22)=2,"02",VLOOKUP($a4,HCGTH1_DATA,22)))

Is there an issue with the formula or some setting in excel?

Formula - Different Apparent Result

Jun 22, 2007

I have a workbook consisting of 4 worksheets. Cell B5 in each of three of these sheets has the exact same formula (copy/pasted) referring to data in the other worksheet. In one of the three similar sheets cell B5 shows up as a blank. In the other two, this cell shows up as a zero.
Since the formula in each of these cells is identical, I figured the difference in the way the result showed up was a matter of cell formatting.

The cell format for each of the three is indicated as ‘general’. However, with one of these, the ‘sample’ shown when you view the cell format shows as a blank while the other two show the ‘sample’ as a zero (0). How can I go about making all three cells appear the same, namely a blank?
