Sheet Name Stored In Cell - Refer To In Formula

May 31, 2006

Sheet names in Col B
B2 : Sheet1
B3 : Sheet2
Etc

I tried

=INDIRECT(B3,$J$58)

at C3 where $J$58 is the cell I would like to reference on 50 different sheets

Formula returns #REF!
Col C ref's $J$58
Col D ref's $L$58
Col E ref's $N$58
Col F ref's $P$58

So as I copy the 4 formulas down, the ref to the correct sheet should update but the cell ref's should remain

Dynamically Refer To A Cell In A Macro Formula

Feb 17, 2009

I want to write a formula that inserts a column and then does a vlookup in that new column using the cell just to the left of it as the first variable. The problem is, this could be in any random column so I can't do a static reference to $A2 as an example. So, my question is...

Instead of using =vlookup($A2,Sheet1A1:B50,2,false)

How do I replace the $A2 part with some code that says, "the cell to the left of here..."

Refer To Cell To Update Row Number In Index Formula?

Dec 8, 2012

I have 2 excel files A & B. In cell A1 of file B, I use an index formula to refer to a row in file A. "INDEX('[A.xlsb]A'!$10:$10,1,2)" is the formula used (referring row 10 in file A).

If I update the row number in another cell of file B, is it possible for this formula to refer to that cell to get the row number from file A?

Circular Reference: Cell References In The Formula Refer To The Formula's Result, Creating A Circular Reference

Aug 14, 2006

I have the following formula in cell L51 of all sheets calculating the volume depending on the monthly index that is chosen from the drop down menu in a particular sheet. =If(MIndex=0, SUM(D33:L50),If(MIndex=1,SUM(D34:L50),If(MIndex=2,SUM(D35:L50), 0))). I am getting the following message and I do not understand what it is about.

Microsoft Office Excel cannot calculate a formula. Cell references in the formula refer to the formula's result, creating a circular reference. Try one of the following

I have multiple sheets as Name1 ; Name2 ; Name3 and each sheet have a value on cell A1 for any number let say between 0 to 100. On another sheet call SheetName, I have A1=Name1 ; A2=Name2 ; A3=Name3.

I have formula as:

[Code] .....

The INDIRECT formula work to refer each cell A1 in each sheet, however if the sheet name include a space then it won't work anymore. How to make it work with the sheet name with space?

Refer To Previous Sheet

Nov 24, 2009

I've got a workbook that increments in sheets for each new week. I have a cell showing the current week number for that sheet ( lets say cell C1) and any formulas that need to reference data from the previous sheet do in 'indirect' function which basically looks at the current week number ( lets say week 20)in cell C1 and minus's 1 to navigate to the previous week (week 19).

I was wondering if there was a way to reference the previous sheet purely by the order they're in.

So say i have 5 sheets named "1,4,5,8,9" and these represent week numbers so the sheet named '8' in cell C1 would have '8' standanding for the week number but cells that wanted to reference the previous sheet couldn't do the 'indirect' C1-1 as there is no 'week 7'.

The weeks used could vary alot so a formula to reference the directly previous sheet is needed.

ok, thought best if i show you the actual formula

=IF(ISBLANK(C12),"",IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(C12,INDIRECT("'"&($AG$2-1)&"'!$C:$AG"),28,FALSE)),G12,SUM(G12,VLOOKUP(C12,INDIRECT("'"&($AG$2-1)&"'!$C:$AG"),28,FALSE))))

the '$A$G2-1' part is the bit that redirects to the previous sheet based on it's name, what i think i really need is to replace this part with a 'PrevSheet' function but i'm unsure how.

Table To Refer To Sheet Names

Nov 23, 2006

I have 50 sheets (1 sheet per staff member) that will be linked to a Master Sheet that compiles the data. The staff members are based in 5 teams of 10. The names of the sheets are based on the person's initials plus the words Progress Day,

All formulas in the master sheet are based around linking to 10 sheets so I can view the performance of each team. My problem is that the composition of each team changes quite often and so the links have to be manually updated for each team. Is there any way, for example, of compiling a table of team initials like the one below:

AT
EF
FY
DE
CB
RO
PR
TA
NE
SK
HS

that could easily be edited so that the formulae containing the sheet names relate to the table rather than static sheet names?

Eg., If AT left the above team and was replaced by PG then I would update the list above and the current formula

='C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersShared DesktopProgress Day Daisychain[AT Progress Day.xls]Sheet1'!D32+'[EF Progress Day.xls]Sheet1'!D32

would update to:

='C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersShared DesktopProgress Day Daisychain[PG Progress Day.xls]Sheet1'!D32+'[EF Progress Day.xls]Sheet1'!D32

Sheet Indirection. Refer To Sheets With Changing Names

Feb 25, 2008

I've been referencing sheets in my code directly with things like

Sheet1. Range(NamedRange)

however in recreating a new workbook (to reduce bloat), the sheet-numbering has changed... to avoid having to mess around adjusting things again, I was wondering if it's possible to do some sort of indirection... something similar to

#define SHEET_SC_CONFIG Sheet1
#define SHEET_CUSTOMER Sheet2

'and then use these throughout the code....
SHEET_SC_CONFIG.Range(NamedRange)

(cannot reference by sheet name, as end user may change these)

Refer To An Array Variable In A Formula

Nov 30, 2008

I'm trying to use arrays in a macro!

Here's my
Sub ArrayTest()
'
' ArrayTest Macro
'
Dim Array1() As Variant, Array2() As Variant
Dim R As Integer, ilR1 As Integer, iLR2 As Integer
ilR1 = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
iLR2 = Cells(Rows.Count, 7).End(xlUp).Row
ReDim Array1(1 To ilR1)
ReDim Array2(1 To iLR2)
For R = 1 To ilR1
Array1(R) = Cells(R, 1) & Cells(R, 2) & Cells(R, 3)
Next R
For R = 1 To iLR2
Array2(R) = Cells(R, 7) & Cells(R, 8) & Cells(R, 9)
Next R
For R = 2 To UBound(Array1)
If WorksheetFunction.CountIf(?????, Array1(R)) > 0 Then Cells(R, 4) = "old" Else Cells(R, 4) = "new"
Next R
'
End Sub

Basically, the macro concatenates the content of three columns from two different tables into two arrays. Array1 contains the current stuff and Array2, the old one. If I CountIf items from Array1 into the content of Array2, I should get what's new (count 0).

Now, ? in the code should refer to the content of Array2. How do I do that?

The errors I get are 424 object required [Array(iLR2)], 1004 method 'Range' of object '_Global' failed [Range(Array2) or Range(Array2(2), Array2(iLR2))], or type mismatched [Array2].

Correct Syntax To Add Workbook Name That Is Stored In Variable Into Formula?

Feb 24, 2014

I have the following code, which executes just fine:

[Code].....

The problem is that I need to run this again in a different column, and the data is held in another sheet that I have given the variable StepTwo to.

I'm not sure of the syntax to do this. Basically - this is what I need the code to do:

[Code] ....

Understandably this is totally incorrect, but it's the best I can do to explain what I'm actually trying to do....

The two parts of SUMIF are both held in a workbook that I've given the variable "StepTwo" to. Both sets of data are also held on Sheet(1) of that workbook.

Refer To A Named Range In A CSE Array Formula?

I know I've asked before but I can neither find my previous question or the answer.
So, once again.... is it possible to refer to a named range in a CSE array formula?
I know how I would type a formula that way -- but I would be happy to see an example.

Most importantly, will it always work? Or are there pitfalls and dangers?

Excel 2007 :: Get Cell To Refer To Date That It Contains And Change Cell Colour Based On That?

Dec 19, 2012

I work for a UK charity and have a list of funders in an Excel 2007 spreadsheet.

One of the columns refers to the date on which a new application for funding can be made to that particular funder.

In many cases new applications for funding can't be made for 1 or more years since the last application - sometimes as many as 5 years later. How to get a cell to refer to the date that it contains.

For example, say I have in cell A1 "The Acme Funding Organisation" and in cell B1 (i.e. the "Reapply when?" column) a date of 01/04/2013 (British date format, i.e. 1 April 2013) then what I want Excel to do is to look at the date in cell B1 and if that date has been reached to highlight the cell red. That way I'll know that the reapply date has been reached & that a new application can be made.

Refer To Cell Without Offset

I have a selection that I am going through with a 'for each' and then performing actions if the cells meet a certain criteria. I have been referencing nearby cells with the offset function, but now my sheet is too big and I need to change the code often and the offset function is difficult, is there anyway to refer to cells without the offset function, preferably by column letter

PHP Code:

For Each Cel in SelectionIf Cel = x Thenvalue1 = Cel.Offset(0,39).Valuevalue2 = Cel.Offset(0,5).ValueEnd IfNext Cel

Basically i want to use a UDF to count cells in a range of a certain colour.

But i want to make it easy for the user to be able to change the colour the function counts, so i thought i could ask them to colour the cell in which the function is written.

Is there a way to tell the function to pick up the Interior.ColorIndex of the cell it is written in?

Use Application.caller.interior.colorindex

Refer A Macro Back To A Cell Value

Aug 31, 2007

macro which can paste the value from A1, to another B1 and when A1 is edited again, pasted it in B2. This will probably go on and on until B30. I have tried the if else then in Macro, and even the if elseif, but both don't go futher than B2. E.G A1=1 B1=1 A1=4 B2=4 A1=3 then nothing happens to B3. If there is a way to make this work, it will be great. The way i am tryin to get it is to have =if(B1="","",1) for each cell from C1:30 and with C31 the formula "=count(C1:C30)+1". Then i formated C31 to a custom and make it so that before numbers, there is an B. This means that if B1,2,3 and 4 and numbers in them, then C31 will read B5. That will be the cell i want my next record to go. I would prefer it if there is just a code that i can enter that will go to the next cell when it knows the current cell has a digit in it but if i have to, the count way will do,

I have three columns:

Column A: Old Value
Column B: New Value
Column C: Cell address of the old value, which is on a different worksheet. For example: Sheet1!$A$1

What I'm trying to accomplish with a macro/VBA is:

Copy the new value from cell B2
Paste the value into the cell address listed in cell C2
Repeat for row 3 and so on, going down 100 rows in total.

Should I make the addresses in column C hyperlinks and follow the hyperlinks somehow?
