I recently set up some functions based on Chip Pearson's tutorial for referencing worksheets from Formulas. (http://www.cpearson.com/excel/sheetref.htm)
The problem I'm now having is that I can't use VBA to set these functions in place; it returns a syntax error.
For example, I want I37 on most sheets to have the same formula. So I have the following:
I am trying to write a UDF that will calculate a value and return it to the cell, and also create a comment in the cell showing the formula used. Here is an example of the "=calculate(A2,B2)" placed in cell A1
Function calculate(ByRef X As Range,ByRef Y As Range)
calculate=x*y
calculate.addcomment "calculate = " & X & " * " & Y
End Function
the problem commes from the add comment field. I can add a comment to any cell but the cell the formula is called from.
I need to create a custom function that can do the following without modifying the selected range. If I have data in a row, I need a function that can give me the following result:
Original unsorted data:
79
45
23
56
1
The custom formula will not modify the selected range, and after saving it or copying somewhere and sorting it, it will provide the following result: if N or count(range)=5 , and p=1, average(second and third smallest values of the range)=34; and if N=4 (lets say that we errase the number 1 data point in the range), average(third and fourth smallest values of the range)=67.5 So it is basically a sort and then getting the averages of specified row numbers depending on N or count(range) Here is what I have.
I'm missing how to create a variable with the sorted range and how to use an index to refer to the rows I want to average:
Function CSORT(r, p)
Application.Volatile
'rs or something similar that will contain the sorted range r
Dim rs As Range
'Sort rs (The following line one doesn't work, so I need one that does)
rs = Application.Range(r).Sort
Dim p As Integer

code to pass a range say (A1:A3) as an arguement among other arguements to a custom function and then reading this as an array inside the custom funtion
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've created a custom Function. I would like for there to be a Helper when a user is entering the Function arguments.
For example if I go into a cell and type in =VLOOKUP(
A popup with appear that shows...VLOOKUP(Lookup_Value,Table_Array,col_index_num,[range_lookup]).
Is it possible for me to build something like this in my Function?
is there a way to turn the following formula into a function ?
=IF( COUNTA(A1:A7)=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A7<>" ")/COUNTIF(A1:A7,A1:A7&"")),"No Duplicates","Duplicates")
I just have no idea where to start ?
A B
17-Feb 5.00
19-Feb 12.00
22-Feb 7.00
26-Feb 10.00
I would like to see the sum of B given it is in the range from 17-Feb to 23-Feb. My estimations so far:
=sumif(A:A,????, B:B)
How do I set up a criteria which would take values from 17-Feb to 23-Feb?
I also tried =sum(sumif(A:A,{17-Feb;?;?;23-feb}, B:B) but it wouldn't let me.
Particularly the problem is in entering the date in the array.
I am performing a lookup using the populare user defined function nlookup, which does not take a lookuparray argument to find lookup values. But I only want to return lookup values that fall into a certain array. To accomplish this, I figured out that I need a way to specify a condition of the type "if cell address of lookup value falls within range"
It should be possible if I find a way to return the cell address of the nlookup value, but as nlookup is not limited by a lookuparray argument, so I was not able to use the address/index/match that come up in similar questions.
I created a custom toolbar button which works perfectly.
Because I needed to save each workbook as a specific workbook this is taken care of by the vb code.
I would like when the button is pressed for the original workbook template to be opened.
At this moment if I have a blank workbook or no workbook open and I press the button the programme opens a version of the workbook but not the template version how do I point Excel at the templates.
I'm trying to make a converter between about 8 various types of values. These are not units like Km or miles or something like that, but rather numbers that represent a specific "hardness value" on a variety of scales (to name a few: HRC, HRA, K)
What I've been doing so far is plotting the two types against eachother and then getting the best trendline I can so that I can use that formula to convert between the two with relative certainty. (for example, when plotting HV vs HRC my fourth order polynomial trendline with an Rsquared of 1 is y=0.0001x4 - 0.0188x3 + 1.0768x2 - 20.709x + 350.69)
My questions comes up where I was hoping to make a window or box of some sort allowing the user to input a numeric value, then selecting the Input units and the hopeful output calculated units, and have the box spit back to the user the conversion.
In the code bellow I would like to automate a if function until the 1st emptycell in the row 7 of my spreadsheet.
In my IF function, I would like to refer to a fix cell ("B1") while the other argument is in the same column as the function but two rows bellow.
My problem is that I don't figure out how to refer to a fix cell with the syntax I would like to use t run the macro.
I think it's more clear when you'll see the code
Sub Face2face()
Range("B5").Activate
Do
If ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1="=If(R[2]C>=Range("B2"),Range("B2"),R[2]C)"
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Select
Loop Until IsEmpty(ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0))
End Sub
How do you set the range with whats below? Right now its looking at 4,2 only and if extend to look all the way to 19,2 it will just copy the whole screen. I need it to look at 4,2 and then move to 5,2 and then so on once it has copied all that information to the sheet ...
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have an excel based report where I drop data into a blank spreadsheet each month and my formula (in a second worksheet) finds the relevant information. I do this by using the Match function on the first row of my source data. This finds the column numbers to the data I am interested in. (This is handy as additional columns of data appear almost every month). Most of my formula (in the second worksheet) works on vlookups using the column number from the match function.
However, I need to do a sumif. Sumif requires cell references rather than a column number. How can I get around this? Due to the nature of the report, VBA isn't appropriate in this instance. I'm only producing the initial report; someone else will be updating it each month.
How do I pass MATCH or COUNTIF the current dynamic row instead of hardcoding $3? The column is fine hardcoded. Column F has data validation allow List with source equal to dynamic range "userlocation". Column H has data validation allow List with source =OFFSET(userlocation,MATCH($F$3,userlocation,0)-1,1,COUNTIF(userlocation,$F$3),1)
In Column H, this will in effect provide me with a list of values based upon the value of cell F3. Problem is I can't seem to figure out how to reference ROW as a dynamic reference in my MATCH and COUNTIF function.
EX
Column F Column H
Screen1 (if Screen1 = value in my dynamic range pass me back value in a list)
Screen2 (if Screen2 etc.
Screen3
How can i set the range for the Sheet3 i have taken IngDataColumn. It select only particular column of fixed that is 4

i would like to set a criteria bewteen a ranges. eg If A1 >0 but <100 then .3, Else If A1 >99 but <200 then .6, Else .9. How do i write this in the cell?
View 4 Replies View RelatedThis should be easy ... can't figure it out. If I want a formula that wants to perform an action (NPV, but I don't think that matters) on the cell directly above and the next "X" (say 20 cells/years of cash flow) to the right of it, how can I set it up so that I can copy the formula across as well as change "X".
(Obviously, it's easy to select a 20 cell range and copy it across ... but what if I want the length of the range to by dynamic (ie I want to switch to a 40 year NPV instead of a 20 year)?)
I am trying to set an Array to prompt user with a series of questions and input answers into a specific row. However, I want to skip over certain columns and leave those blank. How would I modify my code to do this?

Dim ArrInput(2) As Variant
Dim lngLstRow As Long
Dim strPNfromSales As String
ArrQues = Array("Enter the Part Number.", _ "Quantity Being Returned?", _ "What is the Reason for Rejection?")
For b = LBound(ArrQues) To UBound

I want the first two questions to be input into Column B & C, but then the third question to be input into column I.
When I'm using the Macro recorder or even after I've completed a sequence is there a way to change the range so it code always covers the complete range of the data?

View 4 Replies View RelatedThis just a shot in the dark, but does anyone have a custom function that calculates the check digit for a cusip? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUSIP
The algorithm is listed above.
Imagine i have 2 columns: Open and Close, both of these got numbers like
1 ---- 2
3 ---- 1
4 ---- 10
and so on. I had to make a function which checks if some number is in between any of those Open and Close numbers and count how many, for example: im searching for number 1.3, so according to previously drawn table i would get answer of 2, because 2 is in between 1----2 and 3-----1, i achieved this by a simple function:
=IF(OR(AND(Bendras!$J$1>=Table1[[#This Row],[Open]],(Table1[[#This Row],[Close]]>=Bendras!$J$1)),AND((Bendras!$J$1<=Table1[[#This Row],[Open]]),(Table1[[#This Row],[Close]]<=Bendras!$J$1))),TRUE,FALSE)
this generated an additional column with TRUE and FALSE values which i counted with:
=COUNTIF(Table1[T/F],TRUE)
and got the answer.
so now then preparations are ready i need to make a function which would for example if the number i was searching was in 10th and 45th rows find the MAX/MIN values of Close column between those rows(hope i made my self clear)
this is how i was hoping to do that : first of all make a new array of all cell addresses from "Close" column which were "TRUE" from the first function i wrote and when do w/e i like with those cell addresses in other functions.
My co-worker created a function that would calculate the standard deviation according to whatever range is selected by the user.
I was hoping to add an if statement to the formula but am getting a #value! error.
coworker's function:
Function volatility(r As Range, Optional scl As Double = 252) As Double
Dim lr() As Double
rws = r.Rows.Count
ReDim lr(1 To (rws - 1)) As Double
Dim variance As Double
[code]....
What I'd like to do with the function:
=volatility(IF((YEAR(A8:A1036)>=K3)*(YEAR(A8:A1036)
I have created a custom Function in excel. I would like to create a custom button so I can run this funtion with a Click of a button unstead of typing it in or clicking on the insert function button. I am not sure if this is possible to have VB call a custom function. Below is my VB for the Custom Function. I basically want the custom button to open the formula in excel.
Public Function CreateFlexstring(Company As String, Cost_Center As String, _
Division As String, Geography As String)
CreateFlexstring = Company & "-" & Cost_Center & "-" & Division & "-" & Geography
End Function
I have a column of data with 2 possible values, "H" or "A". The second column contains numbers (unsorted).
How do I write the VBA code to return the Highest number, where the first column is 'H' ?
Eg.
Location Attendance
H 25365
A 17436
A 47252
H 15494
A 37578
H 17549
H 28756
A 59756
This would need to return 28756.
I am very proficient at Excel/VBA and have a question about custom/user-defined functions that may be a little more advanced. I understand how to write custom functions and access them through the user-defined functions menu, but I would like to be able to include my function in an add-in that users could simply add, and then access the function via the 'Fx' box at the top of Excel, like they would any other built-in function, instead of having to go to the user-defined functions menu. I guess what I am looking for is how to add 'built-in' functions and not user-defined ones. I just want the user to start typing '=customFunction(' and have the parameters pop-up in tool-tip form, like any Excel built-in function would.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have several named ranges with 4 column each. The named ranges have all the same names but with the tow last digits ranging from 00 to 50 by increments of 5 (ie 00, 05, 10, 15 etc.). The 4 columns for each of the named ranges have the following headings; 10, 100, 50 ,70. I have two cells with drop down lists with the list of the suffixes of the named ranges in cell e5 (ie 00, 05, 10, etc) and in g5 a drop down list with the 4 headings for the columns (10, 100, 50, 70)
I want to refer to these 2 values so that in column B, I can get the values of the column chosen for the given named range. For example, the column "100" for the named range THRESHOLD_10. In cell C1, I entered the following formula ="THRESHOLD_"& E5 which gives me the named range name. I entered the following function in the first cell of column B = index(C1,2,G5) but get a #REF! answer. If I write the following formula =index(THRESHOLD_10,2,G5) I get the right value.
how to get about it, and indirect(C1), but still gets a #REF! message. When I evaluate the formula, the named range appears with quotes "" which might be the reason that it cannot work. I am nearly there...but for the syntax and cannot get that working!
I have a general list from which a chart is created. Column one contains a date series. There are a fixed number of dates in this series (approx 50 or so).
I would like to select a start date and an end date from this list and have the chart display the data from that range.
Typically I would simply create a new list and build the chart from the list, but I'm kind of hoping that I could do it from a single source rather than make mulitple lists.
I am attempting to set a variable as a range of data that sits on a non-activated worksheet. However, I am getting a runtime error of 13 (data mismatch).

Dim sRange As String
Dim tblName As String
