Sheet Name As Variable In Function

Dec 9, 2008

I'd like to compare values from different sheets. My sheets contain data from different years. I have sheets named 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003.... I also have a sheet named "compare". Now I'm using functions like: =('2008'!J13/'2007'!J13)-1
which gives me the relative change between years 2007 - 2008 in the cell J13.


I'd like to use the sheet name as variable. For example: "year 1" is given in cell A1 and "year 2" given in cell A2. Then I could enter (for example) 2007 in cell A1 and 2008 in cell A2. How can I use these cell values in the function? I’ve tried something like: =('A2'!J13/'A1'!J13)-1. I assumed that 'A2'!J13 would be the same as '2008'!J13. It didn’t take me long to figure out that doesn’t work. What would be the right way to do this?

One Sheet Saves A Column To The 1st Empty Row On A 2nd Sheet After 1st Looking For A Match On An ID Variable

Apr 2, 2008

I am trying to create a macro so that when i save an entry the form sheet looks in the tavela master sheet to see if there is a match on the record number (in the A column) and saves there as an update if it matches and then if there is no match, saves it in the last empty row. this is a column to row copy so it has to be paste special to transpose. also i have a password on the sheet which i use to unprotect then reprotect. i have successfully done these two things separately but cannot combine them! i know not very much about visual basic code just what i have read here and so i am trying to make this code work.

How To Use A Variable In The Countif Function

May 19, 2014

Is it possible to use a variable in Countif?

See attached sheet. When a number repeats for the 3rd time, I need to reset the
Countif function.

For example;

Countif($A$5:A20,A20).

I need to change the $A$5 to the current row number so we can start the count again. I need to do this several times during the sheet.

We are counting numbers until they repeat for a 3rd time and then we start the count again at that point.

MAX Function With A Variable Range

May 29, 2014

MAX function with a variable range. I want find the highest value in a changeable range in a column. The problem for me is, how can I automatically change the range where the highest value is returned.

Here is an example:

Cell A1: 14

In cell A1 is the number entered that specifies the range. In this example the range is 14 rows =MAX(A18:A31).

A2 126.36
A3 126.16
A4 124.93
A5 126.09
A6 126.82
A7 126.48

[Code] .....

Using =MAX(A18:A31) returns 128.57. So far so fine.

But what is the MAX function if the range value refers to the number entered in cell A1? If I change the value in A1 from 14 to 20 how can I make the MAX function flexible that it refers to cell A1 as the range value?

Using the value 20 in cell A1 the MAX function would be =MAX(A12:A31). I can change this manually of course but I want a MAX function that refers to cell A1 as the range value.

I want also mention that the data series is update every day, so that each day a new value is added in column A, e.g. A32, A33, A34. and so on.

Sum Function Using Variable Range

Feb 17, 2014

I would very much like to sum a range of values using variables instead of hardcoded ranges. I have tried the following (and variations of )

Range("D2").Formula = "=Sum(Cells(rowIndex1, colIndex1), Cells(rowIndex2, colIndex2))"

where rowIndex1 is starting row number, colIndex1 is the starting column number.....

It does not work.

To Use A Variable In A Call Function

Aug 12, 2008

I'm playing around with the Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean) function. I have a list of people in Column D that I'd like to move data around if the user double clicks on a cell in Column D. The list is about 158 rows long, and could grow beyond that. I've gotten lazy typing:

If Intersect(Target, Range("D4") Is Nothing Then
Exit Sub
Else
{My Code Here}
End If

If Intersect(Target, Range("D5") Is Nothing Then
Exit Sub
Else
{My Code Here}
End If
Etc, Etc, Etc

What I was hoping to do is use a variable (t) to cycle through the rows and call the various functions. So what I came up with is:

Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
On Error Resume Next
Dim t As Integer
Dim Subtest As String
For t = 4 To 158
Subtest = "D" & t

I've created Sub D4(), Sub D5(), and Sub D6() as a test. This didn't work at all as it's looking for a Subtest(). Also, clicking on D5, D6, didn't do much either. Is there any way to make this cycle work, or should I keep typing away?

VBA Max Function For Variable Range

Jan 27, 2010

I need to calculate the max over a range of figures in a macro.

The "from" is a variable, call it X
The "to" is my counter in a loop so (Cells(-(Counter - 1), 5)

What I'm trying to do is to tell Excel that I want the max from X to the current counter cell.

e.g. Application.Max(Application.Index(X, 1):Cells(-(Counter - 1), 5))

but this gives me an error. I also attach a spreadsheet.

Using Match Function Output As A Variable

Jul 24, 2009

I am having trouble using the MATCH function in my code. I am looking for a match in one worksheet from a cell in another. I have defined these cells and ranges as variables. However, it doesn't seem to be working with my application. I would like to find the row of the matching cell and use the output of the MATCH function to determine the next step in my code with an IF function. Here is my code. (NOTE: this is my edited code, I removed irrelevant pieces. The major problem is the MATCH function.)

Import Variable From Another Function Into Subroutine?

Jan 19, 2014

In these lines of code I am adding hyperlinks to cells in a row. It shows my steps recorded but since there are some 4,000 cells I need a macro to do it automagically. The target cells are in sequential worksheets but in each case follow the sane pattern (i.e. P2, H3, X3, D4, etc.). Could I capture this routine for each sheet by the sub for each? If so how?

Range("B2").Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, address:="", SubAddress:= _
"'Max tree base'!P2", TextToDisplay:="'Max tree base'!P2"
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Range("A1").Select
ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks.Add Anchor:=Selection, address:="", SubAddress:= _
"'Max tree base'!H3", TextToDisplay:="'Max tree base'!H3"

VBA CountA Function For Variable Range

I am trying to produce VBA code that will perform the CountA function on a variable number of lines in a column. My macro first sorts the worksheet by department number and then inserts 2 blank rows when there is a change in departments. Most departments have several rows of data, but some may have only 1. In column N of the first blank row following each department, I want to count the number of rows for that department.

Lookup Function For Variable Amounts

I have a worksheet where I only want to pull over details for rows that have a amount listed in the variance column. Is there some type of macro I can create to perfrom this for me? There will be many rows that I do not need to pull, but for the ones that have an amount listed in variance, I will want to pull over certain cells from those rows.

Is there any way excel can do this for me?

Variable Range In Function/Formula

Oct 3, 2007

I 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.

Variable Row Range For Formula / Function

Mar 12, 2008

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

Function To Sum Number Of Rows Based On Variable

Jun 23, 2014

As you can see in the attached excel doc, I have calculated a column for "Number of Claims Per week" and also "Dollar amount Per claim". This was done using VLOOKUP and distributions. That is not the issue.

The issue I am having is creating the "TOTAL" for the week. So for example, if week one generates 4 claims, I need to be able to add up claim amount #1-#4.

It seems as though this would be a basic function, but I can seem to find a way to add up a certain number of cells, based on a variable generated from a random number.

If you take a look a my excel sheet, I am trying to solve for the "Claim Total" column on the far right. This column should be the sum of (Number of claims * The individual amount per claim). Note that if there is 4 claims in that week, I would have to add up claim 1-4 to get that weeks total.

Text Function - Variable Decimal Separator

Sep 13, 2013

I have a workbook that is being used by users with both "," and "." as decimal separator. This is working all fine, except for one cell, where I need the number output to be displayed with two decimals. See formula below:

="Open at " & TEXT(+OHL!J$13+OHL!H$15,"0.00") & " and Go"

This example does not work with "," decimal settings.

Is there any different way to force two decimals in a text string, except for TEXT (where the format given in itself limits the cross decimal separator functionality)?

Pass Variable To Evaluate Worksheet Function

Nov 15, 2013

I understand that the SumProduct doesn't have the same capabilities in VBA as it does in worksheet formulas. I am trying to construct it in an evaluate statement in VBA but the problem is I am using it in a userform, so the conditionals are passed from two combo boxes. Here is the worksheet formula

Code:
=SUMPRODUCT((Table1[Home]=C3)*(Table1[Away]=M3)*(Table1[Goals (H)]>Table1[Goals (A)]))

The values C3 and M3 refer to a cell known as "Home" & "Away". It's comparing to the two teams selected to a table with game stats to show wins and losses. The user form has a combo box list with those teams. Combo Box 1 passes to a variable known as hTeam and Combo Box 2 passes to a variable known as aTeam. I need those values passed through to C3 and M3. Here's what I constructed but get a type mismatch

Code:
Evaluate("=SUMPRODUCT((Table1[Home]=" & chr(34) & hTeam & chr(34) & ")*(Table1[Away]
=" & chr(34) & aTeam & chr(34) & ")*(Table1[Goals(H)]>Table1[Goals(A)]))")

Defining Variable Range In Sumif Function With VBA Within Table

Jul 28, 2014

I sum number of articles that are coming in on one sheet and articles going out on another. The total of In - Out is a separate value. All three values are placed on a third sheet.

The following code I use does the job, but I have to use a set range in the SumIf function. I want to be able to use a variable for the lastrow of a table colum.

VB:
Private Sub ArttotKnop_Click()

Dim Klanttel As Integer
Dim Rij, vLastRow, iLastRow As Long
Dim varResult, varMin, varTotal As Variant

iLastRow = Sheets("Ingebracht").ListObjects("Ingebracht").ListRows.Count
[Code] ....

Since my table grows larger every day I want to use variables.

Where I wrote A2:A500, B2:B500, B2:B550 and D2:D550 I want to be able to replace A500 and B500 with A and B + the variable iLastRow. The same for B550 and D550 with the vLastRow variable

Tried using:
.Range("A2:A" & iLastRow)
.Range("A2", Cells(iLastRow, 1))
.Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(iLastRow, 1))

They don't work.
