VBA: How To Get Either Absolute Column Or Absolute Row Only
Oct 22, 2007
how to get either the absolute row or the absolute column of a cell.
Suppose the active cell is H27.
If we use:
ActiveCell.Address
we will get $H$27
How can we get either $H or $27 only assigned to a variable let it be MyVar.
Please keep in mind that converting the $H$27 to a string and then making string manipulations is not accepted, unless of course it's the only way to go.
Also it would be nice if I get answers on how to get the relative address column/row portions only, too. Like H or 27.
Another tip is that using .Column returns a number, not a letter.

I have a simple count formula which is suppose to be absolute.
=COUNT($L5:$V5) and works till I add a column via a macro.
Macro adds a new column at column M then inserts data.
My problem is when I check the formula after macro it changes to
=COUNT($M5:$W5) I thought using the $ sign means Don't change?

explain with an example.
Cell A1 =A2/MAX(A2:A5)
Cell A2 1
Cell A3 2
Cell A4 3
Cell A5 4
Cell A1 is 0.25 right? Right. Now insert a cell (or row) between cell A1 and A2. Then cell A1 changes to =A3/MAX(A3:A6). I don't want this to change. I still want to formula in A! to be =A2/MAX(A2:A5). I've tried using the "$" absolute character and I've tried using the absolute reference in the R1C1 reference style both to no avail.

I've got a sheet with lots of columns. Each time someone makes a change in any row of any one of those columns, I want it to date stamp it in an extra column on the end so we always know who made the last change to each row and when. The actual entering of the data isn't a problem, the problem I'm having is getting it to always put the data stamp in the right column or row.

I have a below formula which extracts the v and number attached to it I would like to copy this across all columns and change row for each column. So for example 1st column reference will be B4, the second column would have a reference B5 and so on, it's probably worth to mention that cells I am referencing to are in other sheet hence why there's Ref! before B4 is this why absolute column and relative row not working?

I have read meanwhile dozends of articles and comments about absolute and relative cell references.
But I found nowhere an example on how to make a the column part of a cell reference variable and the row absolute.
Is
K$10
a valid expression?
In opposite to $K10 is must work this way

I am currently using a color count function to both count by color and count by color and cells containing certain characters, such as # or %. This works great.
However, I need to modify the UDF to count all the cells in a range in columns C:Z that contain alpha, AND IF the Interior.ColorIndex of a cell in column B within the same row of the counting formula equals the Interior.ColorIndex of a cell in column B within the same row of the selected cell in the range.
Basically, Column B is a header row, and I want to count the cells in a range in each column C:Z if they contain a name AND their corresponding header cell's color in column B matches the color of the header cell in the row containing the formula.

Year
Qty

2011
-50
[Code] .....
I need to obtain the absolute sum of values under column "Qty" for corresponding 2011 under column "Year"
I tried below few formula and have been searching the web to no success.
=SUMPRODUCT((A1:A5="2011"),ABS(B1:B5))
=SUM(IF(A1:A5="2011"),ABS(B1:B5)))
I tried a few combination but keep getting either value# or 0.

Coding for absolute value. The code will enter the formula into the cell. The first set of code works but the user now requires the absolute value. The second set of code is my attempt but does not work.
Code:
With Cells(LastRow + 1, 6)
'This works, not absolute value
.Formula = "=SUM(F2:" & "F" & LastRow & ")"
End With
Code:
With Cells(LastRow + 1, 6)
' My attempted at absolute sum does not work
.Formula = "=SUMPRODUCT(ABS(F2:" & "F" & LastRow & ")"
End With

column headers are people in my department spread verticall goin down column A on my lead sheet. I am trying to report metrics for each person in their row.
I am trying to link the metrics for reporting from 5 seperate weekly batch reports that represent 5 tabs within the same workbook.
The problem is that I have the total information for each metic in column H of all 5 tabs, but all metrics for individuals are reported vertically. (H6, H7, H8, H9)
Thus how do I get the following: =SUM('Week 1'!H4)+('Week 2'!H4)+('Week 3'!H4)+('Week 4'!H4)+('Week 5'!H4)
To Equal: =SUM('Week 1'!H5)+('Week 2'!H5)+('Week 3'!H5)+('Week 4'!H5)+('Week 5'!H5) When I copy the formula across the row for each individual
My column to stay constant, but my row to increase by 1 as I fill the formula across my spreadsheet.

I was wondering how I can replicate Excel's function abs(), which simply gives an absolute value of some number. Is there a simpler way to do that rather than creating a loop to test a condition? For example, I have a line:
w_1 = Range("E2").Value / Range("E3").Value
w_1 can be either positive or negative depending on the sign of E2 and E3. But I need w_1 to be always positive, no matter what signs E2 and E3 have.
I tried
w_1=WorksheetFunction.Abs(Range("E2").Value / Range("E3").Value)

So I have a formula which contains a countifs that looks like this:
=COUNTIFS($AZ:$AZ,$AZ15,$AM:$AM,ABS($AM15),$AD:$AD,$AD15)
However, I want the formula to count values when ABS($AM:$AM)=ABS($AM15) but I get an error if I try to put ABS($AM:$AM) as my range. Is there anyway to set my range as the absolute value of Column?
I have also tried ABS($AM15:$AM1000).

In trying to make an alphabetized record of all inventory for work, I ran into a snafu when creating shortcuts for other users to the different letters.
I hyperlinked something like a table of contents together and hyperlinked them to the cells, so clicking on B in the table of contents takes you to cell B64. I want to future-proof it with absolute references but haven't been able to.
I tried right clicking and typing in the cell name--but when I add more cells, instead of moving to B72 like it should, the hyperlink stays in B64, which is now part of the As.
I also tried: =HYPERLINK(A$64,"B") as well as =HYPERLINK(B_Start,"B") by naming the cell. The name went to B72, but the link stayed in B64

I have a list of values in column A, and want to display in column B, in the cell where the cursor is when the macro is started (let's call it Bn), the sum of values (An:An-11), where n can be any row where there are values to be added. The following works fine.

I want to add a formula with absolute row to a cell.
The desired formula in the cell is something like "=SUM(B$5:B11)"
However, when i use the following code I keep getting error 1004 'Application-defined or object-defined error'
Code:
topCell.Cells(CurrentRow, 3)FormulaR1C1 = _
"=SUM(R-" & CurrentRow - 1 & "C[-1]:RC[-1])"
It works when the bracket [] is used for row, but it does not give me absolute row in the formula.
Code:
topCell.Cells(CurrentRow, 3)FormulaR1C1 = _
"=SUM(R[-" & CurrentRow - 1 & "]C[-1]:RC[-1])"

I am using name manager to identify variables in formulas in order that I can be consistent with calculations. The problem is each line item have different variable amounts. In other words if I am calculating cubic yards of concrete I used (Length*Width*Depth)/27. Line Item number one is (100*3*2)/27 based on my dimensions given. Line Item two may be (50*2*1)/27 based on different dimensions. The Name Manager has Length, Depth, etc. as absolute references. What I am trying to do is copy each formula down the sheet but each time I do the new line item always calculates from the reference cell in absolute mode. Is there a way to copy this formula all the way down the sheet so it will pick up the different dimensions keyed in each time using the Namae Manager Variables set up?
Line 1 (100 x 3 x 2)/27 = 22.22 Cubic Yards
Line 2 (50 x 3 x 1)/27 = 5.55 Cubic Yards

How do you add "ABS" to this
=IFERROR(OFFSET(F18,0,-2,1,1)-OFFSET(F18,0,-1,1,1)," - ")
I tried multiple variations but have not succeeded.
My goal is to show negative as positive and positive as negative for place rank such as if someone moves from the #5 spot and then is #1 (wins the race) the change is a positive.

I'm using the following formula: = LOOKUP($H5,I27:I32,J$27:J$32)- SUMIF(H5:H18,H5,J$4:J4). It's returning an incorrect value of "0". If I click in the formula bar, then click on the "fx" button & bring up the "Function Arguments" window. This gives a formula result of "4" (the correct value). Why is the cell value not the same? Are the formulas unreliable or volatile

I know how to turn a column reference in a structured data table into an absolute reference:
=Table1[A] becomes =Table1[[A]:[A]]
However, how to make a cell reference, like this one, absolute to that it still locks on this row, column A when I drag it across. I don't want to use copy & paste, as I have other cell references that i need to leave dynamic.
=Table1[[#This Row],[A]]
I've seen that @ can lock rows, but I don't seem to be able to lock an individual cell.

I am taking an online computer class and when i enter a formula (=c5/c11) and then press f4, to make the cell c11 absolute, this does not work. Instead it brings me the "Project" right side mini screen. Is there a way to program the f4 key to return absolute results?

So I have a formula as follows:
=SUMIFS(BD:BD,J:J,J15,AD:AD,AD15,ABS(BD:BD),ABS(BD15))
Although it is not working because I cannot use ABS() on a criteria range. is there any other way that I can have this formula sum the values if the absolute value of the number in that row is equal to the absolute value of 1 or more values in the same column but a different row?

This is what I need to be doing:
Write cell K5 as a relative reference, absolute reference, mixed reference with the row varying, and mixed reference with the column varying.
How do I do that?
