View 3 RepliesOn the 'Total' sheet I'm wanting subsequent sheets to fill in on the rows. Do I have to redo the formulas for each row because it will correlate to a different sheet? I only know how to drag the formula down, but that doesn't seem to work right!

If I simply drag the above formula down I end up with
=DCOUNT(timeg15w!$A$1:$F$3909, "WPC",Criteria!A2:C3)
=DCOUNT(timeg15w!$A$1:$F$3909, "WPC",Criteria!A3:C4)
=DCOUNT(timeg15w!$A$1:$F$3909, "WPC",Criteria!A4:C5)
=DCOUNT(timeg15w!$A$1:$F$3909, "WPC",Criteria!A5:C6)
I am trying to drag the above formula so that it copies in the following manner:
=DCOUNT(timeg15w!$A$1:$F$3909, "WPC",Criteria!A3:C4)
=DCOUNT(timeg15w!$A$1:$F$3909, "WPC",Criteria!A5:C6)
=DCOUNT(timeg15w!$A$1:$F$3909, "WPC",Criteria!A7:C8)
=DCOUNT(timeg15w!$A$1:$F$3909, "WPC",Criteria!A9:C10)
How can I achieve this result?
I am trying to link the cells up in a new workbook the problem is the data I need is setup in a way the formula needs to skip every other row.
For example:
I have tried absolute and relative on the formula in A5 of this sample data below to get A6 to equal D2 and so forth down the sheet. Nothing works except typing in the formula for each cell....
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have sheets with over 40000 rows. I grouped them in 60 and I need the average for every group on the 61st (which is blank). For example, when collapsed I have visible the following blank cells:
A61
A122
A183
A244
and so on.
What I want is to enter a formula in A61 for the average of A1:A60 then drag down and have the correct values in all the rest (average of A62:A121 in A122, etc.).
I want the range to stay as i put it without it +1 when i drag the formula down my spreadsheet, below is the formula im using (for a creche in case your wondering)
=IF(G5<A8,"Baby",IF(G5<A16,"Wobbler", IF(G5<A24,"Toddler",IF(G5<A30,"Playschool","Please use DD/MM/YYYY FORMAT"))))
G5, A16, is taken from a list of dates down the side so i need these to remain constant otherwise my formula goes out.
i wanna to put check boxes in colums d4:d41 with a formula inside which beginning with this formula (=Sheet1!$D$4) in cell d4.how to copy and drag down this formula into d5:d41?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have data in every cell within a column. I want to pull data from every 7th Cell.
Ex.
Cell CP7 needs to reference AG10
Cell CP8 needs to reference AG11
This is my formula:
=DCOUNT(timeg15w!$A$1:$F$3909, "WPC",Criteria!A1:C2)
My question concentrates on this part of the formula:...Criteria!A1:C2
When I drag down the formula, it changes, as usually, adding 1 to the cells address, like this:
Criteria!A1:C2
Criteria!A2:C3
Criteria!A3:C4
BUT, I want the formula dragged down, adding 2 instead of 1, changing like this:
Criteria!A1:C2
Criteria!A3:C4
Criteria!A5:C6
How can I achieve this result?
I want to put in cell I3 the value from cell C1, to I4 the value of C49 and so on. How can I do it?
View 5 Replies View RelatedIs there an easy way to drag all the references to a cell in a formula quickly e.g If i have a formula like this is;
=IF(A1>0, A1+1,A1-1)
and want to drag all the references to the cell A1 to another cell in one go as opposed to one at a time?
In my worksheet i have pairs of data from A2:A18. cell A2 is paired with A3, cell A5 to A6.
In cell C2, I have the formula =IF(A2>A3,A2,A3). then in C3 I have =IF(A5>A6,A5,A6).
I would then like to be able to drag these formulas down to C7 and take the appropriate data.
So another example, cell C4 should be =IF(A8>A9,A8,A9).
I have seen many formulas for how to drag skipping a row, but couldn't find anything on pairs of data while skipping a row as well.
The worksheet is attached : TEST.xlsx
1. I have data A1, A2, A3....down a column.
2. I have one value on C2 ( constant value)
3. the formula is a very simple multiplication formula. I want to multiply every single value of column A to C2. But it needs to be in across a row that starts in
D4. So,formula needs to be in (D4, E4, F4) there are other datas in the worksheet
4. So when I input =$A1*$C$2 in D4 it calculates it fine but when i try to drag the formula across the row so [E4=$A2*$C$2, F4=$A3*$C$2...]
it repeates the same fomula as D4 and does not adjust for the increase in column number.
I am making a sheet that has many colums of data that I want to sumup colum wise. I am doing is using this macro ..
=============================================
Sub Add_Totals()
For Each NumRange In Columns("C").SpecialCells(xlConstants, xlNumbers).Areas
SumAddr = NumRange.Address(False, False)
NumRange.Offset(NumRange.Count, 0).Resize(1, 1).Formula = "=SUM(" & SumAddr & ")"
NumRange.Offset(NumRange.Count, -1).Resize(1, 1).Value = "TOTAL="
Next NumRange
End Sub...........
i noticed that when i have a formula that refers to a table, such as:
= sumifs(table1[heading4],table1[heading1],"A",table1[heading2],true)
i can copy-paste it, i also can fill (right or left) a selected range with it,
but, i cannot copy it (right or left) by dragging.
I have the following formulae in seperate cells were A1, A2 and A3 are the cells
A1 =MAX(Data!C2:C3)
A2 =MAX(Data!C4:C5)
A3 =MAX(Data!C6:C7)
I would like to drag the cells so that automatically the cells below A3 are updated as follows
A4 =MAX(Data!C8:C9)
A5 =MAX(Data!C10:C11)
etc up to 600 rows
Unfortunately it is not being updated in that order. Do you have any suggestions how it can be done.
The one thing that has always bugged me about Excel is that in order to modify an existing cell, I need to click on the cell and then click in the formula box above. If I want to overwrite the contents of the cell, I can just start typing, but if I want to edit it, I need to use the mouse. It really seems like like Alt-D should move up to this window like it does in Internet Explorer. I can move around Most Windows applications without need of a mouse save for this one area.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIn the attached workbook, see the "P & L" tab, cells I30 to I48. The idea of the formula I have placed into these cells is to drag out the figures from column I in the "Trial Balance" tab of the workbook. A similar formula is used succesfully in the "balance sheet" tab in Column B. I don't understand why the formula doesn't work in the cells i've specified in in the " P & L" tab it seems to work for I8 and the rows immediately below it "revenue".

I am trying to drag down a formula (see below). the cell reference A6 and E6 is not updating to A7 and E7 etc etc when i drag the formula down using the corner thing. it remains constant at A6 and E6.
=HYPERLINK("#INDEX('Shipping Tracker Week X'!$F$4:$F$3000,MATCH(1,('Shipping Tracker Week X'!$B$4:$B$3000=A6)*('Shipping Tracker Week X'!$D$4:$D$3000=E6),0))","Link 1")
im pretty sure the problem comes down to the hashtag and quotation marks that i added, as the formula properly increased the cell references when i drag down without the hashtag and quotations. however, i sort of need it because adding those seems to be the only way i can get the hyperlink to link me over to the other sheet and to the correct cell containing the hyperlink.
part 2 of problem: the hashtag and quotations is currently a workaround method for me. the original intention was for the hyperlink to directly link me to a website, which is referenced from a separate sheet. however, without the hashtag and quotations, i get a "Cannot open specified file" error.
I can drag it down to fill a series of cells within a column.
Let's say the formula in cell A1 is:
I am using a VLOOKUP formula, but when I drag it down it doesn't keep the same array selection. Is there a way so that I can drag it and it relates to the cell to the left, but the array selected stays the same. I don't really want to type the same thig out for every cell as there are 6000. I am using: =VLOOKUP(D2,Working!A2:C23,2,FALSE) and want D2 to change accordingly but for working!A2:C23 to stay the same.

Is there someone who know the keybord shortscuts for copy a cell formula, whithout using mouse. Like this: A1: =VLOOKUP(I2;A:A;1;FALSE)
Then copy the cell formula to the end of the sheet:
A2:=VLOOKUP(I3;A:A;1;FALSE)
A3:=VLOOKUP(I4;A:A;1;FALSE)
A4: =VLOOKUP(I5;A:A;1;FALSE)

I have a spreadsheet with temperature data, all in one column (D), that was recorded every 10 minutes for several months. In two adjacent columns (E & F), I would like to record the daily max and min temperatures. I can manually do this with MAX and MIN formulas in column E and F respectively, MAX(D1:D144). But when I copy this formula to the next row, I get MAX(D2:D145) when what I really want is MAX(D145:D288)....and so on...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have set up a formula to sum data from specific columns in multiple sheets in the same file. The simple formula had worked perfectly until I needed the data from the last sheet. In all of the other sheets the data that I need to pull is all in consecutive rows but in the last sheet the data that I need pulled and added is in every 4th row. The sheet looks like this:
All of the columns I've filled in work fine. The ones blank are the ones I am running into issues with. When I drag down the formulas excel pulls the next consecutive rows, which is perfect for the first four sheets I am summing, but for the fifth sheet (I'll ref the Test1 column) I need it to pull 'Wayne 2014'!C6 and then 'Wayne 2014'!C10 in the next row and so forth.

Is there any way in Excel 2010 to get it do what I want? (I am not sure how that one cell became outlined and I do not know how to fix it.)
I'm looking at [URL] which gives a lot of keyboard shortcuts, but not specifically what I'm looking for.
It's a basic function, I'm surprised it's not listed. I just want to copy the value of a selected cell via keyboard shortcut (for copy and paste purposes). I don't want the formula, just the value. If it were just text I would typically do CTRL-C and CTRL-V to paste like everyone does 1000 times a day, but in this case it's copying between two otherwise totally unrelated spreadsheets, so having the formula is irrelevant and produces undesired results. I just need the value of the formula.
Is there a keyboard shortcut for "copy value"?
I need a formula to drag down the attached that will place zeros infront of any numbers that don't have 9 digits. so if a part number consists of 6 digits then i need 3 zeros in front of it, if a part number consists of 9 digits then i dont need any zeros proceeding it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI making a template for multiple users to import data into for analysis. I want them to be able to delete and drag-and-drop data to get rid of any bogus values. However i need forumlas that reference those to NOT follow the values as there as moved. As a simple example say you have two columns, column A is a set of random numbers, column B is the number from coumn A times 2. If take the bottom half of column A and drag it up one cell, overwriting a cell, now the cell in column B next to the overwritten cell has a #REF err and ever cell below that now references a Cell in column A from the previous row. I want a formula that references a static address and will not follow the cell if it is moved.
If I use named ranges rather than specific cells references it works for the above example, however for my actual form it does not. Even though the ranges and formulas stay the same I start getting incorrect values. If there is no other way to this I will try to figure why the named ranges do not work.
I am wondering if there is a way to drag a formula, for instance, down, and each cell that I drag down, it references one cell to the right.

I attached a photo -- I understand that this is an overly simplified example, but the idea is that it would reference the row as you drag down the column.
