Save Formulas With Weeknum Function ( With Workaround)
Apr 1, 2009
I have some formulas in my workbook that use the weeknum function from the analysis toolpak. I have the analysis toolpak installed, yet every time I save the file and reopen it, the formulas with weeknum are gone, with #N/A in its place as the formula. Sometimes the results of the formula from the last time remain (the cells contain the number of the week, but without the underlying formula), sometimes not. All the other formulas are fine. The formulas are simple, like =WEEKNUM(C2)
I have been trying to save as a 97-2003 .xls file. Today I'm trying to save as .xlsx, but I have to rebuild the formulas first, so I don't know how that's going to turn out.
How come the WEEKNUM formula in the attached file does not work?
The cell gives me "#Name?", and I have no idea why.
I noticed one thing though, which is that WEEKNUM function is described when I look in "Help", but the function is not in my "Insert Function"-wizard, so perhaps the function is not there at all, which is very odd.
I am trying to get the week from a given data (from a cell that has been correctly formatted with date). =YEAR works, =MONTH works, =WEEKNUM does not work. I am using Excel 2003 and I have tried in both my workplace and at home...
I.e., I have a date in C2 (18-05-08), and =YEAR(C2) returns 2008, =MONTH(C2) returns 5, while =WEEKNUM(C2) returns #NAME, and =WEEKNUM(C2,2) does not work at all...
So my macro goes through about 30 workbooks--opens them, updates the links, saves, closes. It would work flawlessly except I have to stop and click "continue" when this message pops up for most of the workbooks:
"This workbook contains one or more links that cannot be updated....etc."
About 90% of the workbooks have bad links somewhere (I think in the insert>names...but they're not my workbooks so i can't delete all the names). Since I can't find the bad links, I would like a visual basic script that will automatically click "continue" everytime so that the macro runs its course without me having to do anything. Does anyone know how to do this?
I am wanting to base some calculations on a filtered list, specifically visible cells. Subtotal works great on average and other calcs, but not median. Any way to get a median calc on visible cells?
I can't use sumproduct or ctrl-shift arrays because I don't know of a way to identify if the cell is visible (or hidden).
How do I avoid using arrays? I am reaching Excel 2003's limit.
Our workbook has many worksheets, each with tables generated from queries that have multiple columns. On the first sheet we have arrays that refer to the other worksheets. Such as:
I have a dateset that I am creating a userform for. The problem is my dataset has more than 32765 rows, usually around 35000. How can I work around getting the "overflow" error when my users click on a selection > the limit imposed on a listbox?
I need to save my workbook to another drive every Friday for archive purposes. My workbook contains time sheets for each employee. Currently I use a command button to copy and save the workbook to the correct place and it works perfect. However, the formulas are copying with it and when I open the saved workbook in the future the dates have changed in the Mon-Fri cells. The reason for this is because I have a formula in the week starting cell that changes the date automatically every Sunday. Then, the dates in the Mon-Fri cells change with it.
What code can I insert, and where, to keep the formulas from copying over with the workbook? The code I am using is below:
I am aware that special characters such as -,(,),[,] are not permitted in named ranges (for lists), but is there a workaround for this? I have a lot of dependent lists that need to access names that contain either a - or () or both. I could simply remove the -'s or ()'s using find/replace, but they are required, as they're part of the name. I am aware of this method http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal02.html#Illegal but I have a lot of dependent lists across a sheet, and a VLOOKUP isn't going to work. If there isn't a workaround, are there any allowed characters I could use to replace the -'s and ()'s?
I created a financial model in sheet with a macro. The model works as designed. And the workbook can be saved with smaller steps. But with big steps that contains about 250,000 formulas, it seemed to take forever to have the work book saved, I have to canceled it after about 45 minutes. I tried it on different machines and all have the same problems.
if there was a way to disable mcros but I think now I should have pursued the option of saving data to new workbook without transfering the existing formulas or macros. I really think I should attach the sheet I have thus far so I can convey what I am trying to accomplish. Anyone interested, please let me know and I will forward the sheet. I am unsure how to do this any other way. I found some code that would claim to do this but I have so many things going on already in this sheet I can't figure out how to incorporate the new code to work properly. Here is the original thread for reference [url]
Is it possible to use VBA code to save a copy of your workbook while removing all formulas and replaceing them with values and formats only? I know how to save and rename, but can;t find the command for a "Static Copy".
I got a file from my boss that is linked to an online table. This table contains customer contacts infos such as account number, activation date & time, etc, etc.. (1 contact = 1 line)
Now (for "quick filtering reasons" he said), my boss "needs" to have also in the sheet the week number for every contact we had..(as well as Month & Year) and as the list grows up everyday with new entries, I thought I could use VBA. so I wrote a little something that uses the date&time column to have the wanted infos added on every line :
Formula below returns Year Week format. e.g. 11/06/08 entered in cell C13 returns 0845
=VALUE(RIGHT(YEAR(C13),2)&TEXT(WEEKNUM(C13),"00")) however entering 12/29/08 returns 0853, but management wants it as 0901. 01/05/09 returns 0902. Is this how Weeknum calculates, do I need to write my formula to if 53 then... or am I missing something with Weeknum?
I borrowed the macro below from this forum. My formulas in the sheets I'm copying refer to other sheets that I'm not saving. can someone tell me how to change it so that it copies values only to the new workbook as I'm only saving it for records purposes and some cells are saved with #REF errors.
I'm guessing there's a spot where I should type .Value ? Copy.Value doesn't work.
Does VB have the WEEKNUM feature ?, I can use WEEKNUM in an Excel sheet ok, but it is not recognised in VB ... I have installed both the Analysis tool packs, the one for VB as well.
I am currently using the =Weeknum(A1,15), so I have a Fri to Thu week. My issue is that I need anything that is done on Thursday after 3:00pm to be identified as the following week.
For example 04/03/2014 2:00pm = week 14 04/03/2014 3:01pm = week 15
We have a fiscal calendar which starts Oct 1. I would like to display the proper week numbers. I worked out a formula which seems to work (except for week 53) but it would be better if I didn't have to rely on other users having the Analysis Toolpak installed. My date is located in '3930!I4' and this is the formula that works with the toolpak: ...
=IF(I1239="","",IF(OR(H1239="Induction",H1239="One to One"),WEEKNUM(I1239)-WEEKNUM(K1239)+1,""))
Which works fine an counts the weeks from the input date I1239 from the initial start date K1239, however if the input date runs into next year 2014 the result ends up as a minus figure eg -47 instead of the next sequential figure which would be say 5 or 6
I need to use weeknum() for a number of situations in a project I'm working on. But when I use =WEEKNUM(DATE(2010;1;31)) it returns 6, instead of 4 as it should. Using it on today's date returns correct number.
In column A I have the following formula =CONCATENATE((YEAR(B1)), " - ", (WEEKNUM(B1,1)))
In column B I have a date.
I need column a to display in YYYY-MM format.
This works great from about mid-March thru the end of the year when the week number is 10 or greater. As an example when the date is 1/31/2012, column A displays as 2012 - 5. For sorting purposes, I need it to display as 2012 - 05.

What I am doing is comparing Zip Codes from 3 Data Bases against each. If all 3 DB's are equal then I need a responce of "Ok", if there is a difference in any of the 3 then I need a "Bad". I know this is simple, but Data Base A can have the Zip Code as all 9 numerals or just the first 4. It only depends on who entered the Zip whether or not the trailing 4 numerals were entered or the were entered as all zeros. To throw another wrench in it, if the leading numeral is a zero, all three DB's will drop the leading zero.
I want to do all of this in 1 Function, not 5 fromulas.
What I need is for Database A, test the cell for Length and if it is 8 or 9 numerals then remove the right 4 to only leave the left 4 or 5 numerals (4 if it had the leading dropped 0) and then do a simple If A=B and A=C Then "Ok" Else "Bad".
My company uses a customized accumulative code week system, as in the year 2000 to today is about 442 weeks with the year 2008 starting around week 416.
Here is how my formula works(or how I would like it to work), if the date (in cell F8) is blank, nothing is displayed, if there is a date (format 2008-07-03) and it falls within 2008, WEEKNUM+416(416 is a fixed reference in J4), if the date falls within 2009, WEEKNUM+416(J4)+52, if the date falls within 2010, WEEKNUM+416(J4)+104. I only need it to go from 2008 to 2010.
This way J4 is a fixed code week reference where 416 is added to each week number, but it does not work for years 2009 and 2010 as it does not add the weeks from the starting reference.
I receive montly investment performance projections going out monthly for 10 years. I need to show the return annually for each year. I created a SUMIFS formula to sum the percentages between two date ranges (beginning of the year and the end of the year for each year). However, my SUMIFS formula does not take into considersation compounding. How can I modify the SUMIFS formula I created to take into consideration compounding?
I know how to convert monthly percentages to an annual percentage,using the PRODUCT formula =PRODUCT(1+T15,1+U15,1+V15,1+W15,1+X15,1+Y15,1+Z15,1+AA15,1+AB15,1+AC15,1+AD15)-1, whereas T15:AD15 is the monthly percentage gain. Is there a simplier/alternative way that I can incorporate into the SUMIFS formula?
If it is too complicated to utilize a SUMIFS formula, I would like to be able to select a range of cells and have Excel calculate the result vs typing "1+[select the cell]," for each month. It takes me forever and open to input errors. It would be much easier to be able to select a range of cells when creating the formula.
I'm using a heavy excel file and I have linked some cells in one sheet to other worksheets in the same file. My problem is that when I change the value in some cells they do not change in the other cells linked to the ones I have modified.
I am in the process of reformatting an excel workbook to act as a review tool for different factors in a process. Part of my redesign includes the use of coding that creates different cell colors based upon the cell contents. The new workbooks will be used to handle existing data for this year. I have developed a process macro to open an existing workbook and copy and transfer the original data worksheet into the newly formatted workbook. The data gets transferred to the new worksheet and the resulting workbook is renamed and saved, Heres'' the rub... the newly saved workbook is missing all of the coding for the worksheets... apparently this is a MS bug.
Has anyone figured a workaround for this. One thought I had is to open both( new and old )workbooks and rather than move/copy , i would transfer the data using cell references.
