Vlookup Function Not Updating When I Insert A Column
May 5, 2009
I have two sheets. One called "Roster" and one called "final". On the final sheet i have cols for each question on the final exam. I also have a total col which sums up the pts for each question.
On the "roster" sheet. This is kinda like a summary sheet. On this sheet i use a vlookup (shown below) in the cells which are supposed to reference the cells on the "final" sheet for the total pts.
Sheet 1 has a column with verbiage in it. Sheet 2 has a column of possibel verbiage with a second column of numeric values for the verbiage On sheet 3, I want the numeric value for the verbiage in cell b19 on Sheet1
Long way, create a new column on sheet1, run a VLookup to insert the numeric value into the new column, then do an "equals" on sheet 3 that point to the Vlookup results. How can I get the value onto sheet3 without creating the extra column?
I have to create a spreasheet monthly that has perhaps 60 transactions. The data is in columns A - G, with columns E and F having the costs figures. I need to sum the value in column E and also in Column F every few rows. The problem is that sometimes there are two rows per transaction and other times it could be 30 rows per transaction. Where I will be lucky is that there are two rows between transactions, and the sum goes in the first empty row.
Basically what I would need it to do, from a macro point of view is to go down column E, and every time it finds the first empty row, insert an auto sum. It would then need to ignore the next row, because it too, is empty.
Just Column E - I need an autosum in the "empty row 1's)
use the VLOOKUP function when the column I need to search is not column A?
I have a Workbook with two worksheets in it and in Sheet 1 I have 10 columns of various text and numbers. In cell A1 of sheet 2 I will fill with a certain code that appears in column E in Sheet 1. The result I would be looking for should come from Column A in Sheet 1. I thought that the following would work copied into B1 of Sheet 2 but it doesn't appear to - =VLOOKUP($A1,'Sheet 1'!E$1:$E$481,1,FALSE).
I am trying to write a function that looks in column M1 to see if it is empty. If M1 is empty then check conditions if R1 = vlookup(R1,AA:DD,4,False) and if vlookup(E1,CC:EE,3,false) is true then vlookup(E1,FF:GG,2,False). If M1 is not empty then return back M1. I am trying to make a formula for this. This is what I have so far
I am trying to insert three columns within a large amount of data. I am using Excel 2003 edition. The three columns need to measure max, min, and standard deviation of month long ranges and the data goes all the way back to 1993.
Currently, I have a column that has the correct ranges but finds the average for each month
(=AVERAGE($H7214:$H7243))...
And many more ranges as it dates back all the way to '93. Is there a possible way to insert these three columns with their respective commands (=MAX... =MIN... etc.) while keeping all the ranges from the AVERAGE column.
In effect, I am looking to solely switch the begining of the column command
(=AVERAGE($H7214:$H7243)) to (=MIN($H7214:$H7243) etc...
While keeping all of the specified ranges from the AVERAGE column.
I had a spreadsheet with an insert row macro which worked fine and dandy, unfortunatly I decided to split the worksheet across two worksheets and the macro requires updating, The macro currently runs fine for the 'To be State' worksheet but gets an error on the 'As is State' worksheet. The code breaks down on this line:
ActiveCell.EntireRow.Insert Shift:=xlDown
The only difference between the two worksheets that I need is that in the 'To be State worksheet' columns C and O need to be copied down from Row 3 while in the 'As is State' worksheet columns C and U need to be coped down from Row 3.
The worksheet names are:
As is State To be State
My Code is:
Sub InsertARow() Dim CurCell As Range Set CurCell = ActiveCell Dim CurCellInA As Range Set CurCellInA = Columns("A").Cells(CurCell.Row)
What I am wanting to do is have excel insert a static date automatically. I know ctrl + : inserts date and ctrl shft + ; inserts time. I want excel to do this automatically. The now() and today() functions auto update the date. I dont want the date auto updated when the file is reopened after it is saved. The file is a template so I guess what I am really wanting is a automatic date/time stamp when the user saves the file so when it is emailed and reopened the date does not auto update.
I have a worksheet with many different formulas in many different cells. When I insert or delete a row, there is one formula in one cell that does update to reflect the change in rows. The cell is located several rows below the section where rows are changing. It is a simple formula too. Here is the formula: "= SUM($E$3:E11)*0.09". If I delete more rows that cause the highest row number to be less than 11, this formula updates. If I insert more rows and go beyond row 11, the formula does not update. I have tried using $E$11, $E11, and E$11 to no avail.
I need a method of updating a set of data held on tab1 from tab2 where details of one record is shown using VLOOKUP, possibly via a macro? For example:
Sheet 1 holds info on various companies - (Column headers: Name, address1, address2, postcode, " DATE LETTER SENT")
Sheet 2 Uses a drop down menu to select the desired company and some VLOOKUP formulas show the info from sheet1 on that one particular company. Sheet 3 There is a printable standard template letter which draws info from the record selected on sheet 2 (using standard =Sheet1!A1 formula) formated so the letter is addressed to the specific company selected. Back to: Sheet 2 - At the bottom there is a button which says 'Print' This runs a macro which selects sheet3, prints it then returns to sheet2. I need this macro to also go back to sheet1 and update the relevant record with ideally todays date (the date the letter was printed) in the "DATE LETTER SENT" column mentioned before but can just be an 'X' to show a letter has been printed for this company/record at some point. So in the future, by looking at sheet1 you can easil determine which companys have had letters printed against, and which havn't.
I have the folowing vba function that i use to check the existance of files but when the workbook is refreshed, the formula doesn't update. It's only updated when i double click it's cell.
if I change a value in the range named "Named_Range" this vlookup does not update.
This formula works but does not allow for any updates. Meaning the vlookup returns the original value even after a cell has been changed. "Named_Range" is on a different sheet but in the same workbook.
Auto calculate is on. I have recalculated the cell manually. I have Office 2010
I have the following macro which runs vlookups between two sheets in excel. Whenever i add columns to the range the vlookup column reference is not the correct cell. Is their any way I can adjust the macro so that the column number adjusts in the formula when a new column is added??
What I need to do is basically use one sheet from my workbook as a 'template' for all the other sheets, but in a way that when I make a change to a formula on my 'Template' sheet all the other sheets based off of it follow suit. I need to do this because for 100000's of rows, spread across different sheets, I have product information populating Columns A-G, and their unique cost in Column H. I need to apply markups to each product (row), but all of these markups are standard across every product and thus every sheet. So in the perfect world I would be able to edit the formula on Sheet #1, and then have that change be reflected in every other sheet.
So let's say I have something like this on Sheet #1...
[URL] .....
Where Column C is a product of A & B...ie. "=A2*B2"
What I need to happen is on Sheet #2 is for it to somehow pull the same formula that is on Sheet #1 in Column C, but apply that formula to 'A2' & 'B2' on sheet #2. And I also want it to update whenever I change the formula in Sheet #1.
If it requires that I set up a template on a completely different workbook, that is perfectly fine as Sheet #1, my 'Template' Sheet, does not hold in actual product information.
I created a simple custom function called File_Path() using this macro line:
File_Path = ThisWorkbook.Path
I use the function in Cell A1 and it displays the path, but it doesn't automatically update when I change the path. I have to use F2 to get it to update. I have automatic calculation on.
I'm using a heavy excel file and I have linked some cells in one sheet to other worksheets in the same file. My problem is that when I change the value in some cells they do not change in the other cells linked to the ones I have modified.
I have fought with this for 2 days and I am trying to have a worksheet cell update the date and time if the cell it is referencing (B3 see below)
Here is the formula I am using however it updates every time a new row is added to the worksheet. So the Date/Time stamp on each row is always updated to NOW() everytime.
=IF(ISNA(B3),"0/0/00 00:00",NOW())
I would like to have a Date/Time stamp stay as is once that row has been added. Is there anyway to stop the field from updating once the date and time have been set?
It seemed to be working OK for the first hour I had my sheet open. I then noticed that a variation of the following Sub would not update unless I clicked somewhere else in the sheet or edited another non-included cell. It's like something is holding up Excel from running this function and updating the cells if b2 is greater than a3 then a3 will not update to = b2 immediately.
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If [b2] > [a3] Then [a3] = [b2] End Sub
My data in column B is formula derived and that formula contains data that is live updated data brought in from DDE link.
My question is, should I setup this formula as part of a macro, instead of workbook code and attach an Application.Ontime function to ensure reliable execution? Could too many IF statements cause delays (about 100 of them currently in the code Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range))?
A most of time I'm using VLOOKUP function. I want to call specially this function by pressing custom button (w/o pressing "Insert Function" and choosing VLOOKUP)
I have a master data sheet with four columns, A, B, C and D
Column A has the primary data and B,C,D has dependent data values;
So when I insert a new cell in Column A with cells Shift Down, I want mandatorily new cells to be inserted in the same row in col B, C and D as well so that data integrity is maintained;
let me start by saying that I know an example workbook would be useful here, but the part I'm struggling with is the [managementroster.xlsm] file, and there is A. no way I can release it to the internets and B. its so huge/complicated I couldn't even begin to reproduce a portion of it, scrubbed of data, and hope to maintain its functionality in a meaningful manner.
[Code]....
This formula checks a staff number on this spreadsheet, and then goes and looks at the staff number on the roster. Once found, it returns that staff members roster, but changes any manager codes in the MRC list to Mgr, and changes all other roster codes to Free.
I now need this formula, before altering roster codes to Mgr or Free, to only return codes that are a match for another table (or after really. I don't particularly care, so long as only codes are shown that match data from another table). I think an index/match function would do the trick, but this forumula is already at the edge of my excel ability, nesting another function within it is completey beyond me. The relevant cells for the index/match function would be:
This first Match function targets the column. $E3 is the date required, $BA$1:$DN$1 is the range the dates are entered in Match: Lookup value = $E3 Lookup array = '[ManagementRoster.xlsm]Vacancies!'$BA$1:$DN$1 match type = 0
This second Match function targets the row. $A$4 is the department name, $B$434:$B$452 is the range where all departments are entered
Match: Lookup value = $A$4 Lookup Array = '[ManagementRoster.xlsm]Vacancies!'$B$434:$B$452 match type = 0
Index: array = $BA$434:$DN$452
So I think my final function is
[Code] .....
But I have absolutely NO idea where it would fit within my first formula, or how to code it so that my original formula only reproduces results that are found in both sheets, or anything.
On sheet 1 I have a list of 1000 firstnames On sheet 2 I have a list of 1000 emails,
I need a function that states If a cell in the email column contains a string or value from the names column, it will result in a true statement so that I can separate out the emails that have these peoples first names.
In an excel sheet, I have 5 columns namely, name, address, source, subtype,code. In subtype column we enter the the type for example: name,SBI bank then subtype will be bank, and if it is SBI atm then subtype will be ATM etc. Similarly all the subtype will be given a code like 4 for ATM and 10 for Bank respectively. My query is that , is it possible to update the CODE column by comparing the subtype column using macros in excel.
I need a formula that let me change the value in column B with the value from column D. But to do the change I have to check that the value in column C is equal to the value in column A. If a value from column A is not present in column C (like 1002 in the example), the value in column B wont change. The values in columns A and C are alphanumeric, the values in columns B and D are numeric.
For example:
Column A Column B Column C Column D
1001 2 1001 4 1002 1 1003 5 1003 0 1004 1 1004 2
The columns A and B should end like this (Changed):
I am trying to retrieve data from another file using the VLOOKUP function however this is only to happen depending on if any of the 3 items of data appear in column 8(H)
OLY OLY - QUO OLY - PRO
I have the following and know this is not correct
Sub BlockAllocationsVlookupAll() Dim x As Long For x = 1 To 65536 If InStr(1, Sheet1.Range("$H$" & x), "OLY") > 0 Then Sheet1.Range("$I$" & x) = Sheet1.Range("$I$" & x) & "sometext" End If Next End Sub
I know the above doesn't do exactly what needs to be edited to include the Vlookup below
a. actual data in columns is approx 150 items (that is why i need to hide/unhide columns) b. there are about 120 persons whom above items are issued depending on expiry of life of item i.e. issue date plus number of months mentioned in row 3. for example if coat was issued to John on 5th Jan then it's life expires on 5th May and so on.
Now what i want
1. by clicking hide checkbox only that specific column should hide or if i click Hide All check box all column in range should hide.
2. as i enter issue date expiry of that item should automatically update on corresponding month sheet i.e for above example 5th May should automatically get entered in sheet May.
I have entered sample data manually in months sheet.
