Writing Formula Which Refers To Different Pages In Workbook?
Dec 29, 2013
I'm working with a multi-page workbook I use for work scheduling purposes.
This is how Sheet1 is set-up:
A
B
1
Name
[Code]....
In the cells in Column D I have used the following formula =IF('Sheet1'!B2="Yes","Holiday",""). What I have realized is that this formula is quite limited. For example not all 12 colleagues work everyday and they work different shifts on different days- each day's data is sorted so that the colleagues are organized primarily by Shift start time and then alphabetically by name- consequently if I used this formula across the entire workbook the Sheet1B2 data may not be consistently referencing the same colleague.
I was wondering if there was a way to amend the formula so that if a colleague is marked as 'Yes' in Sheet1, 'Holiday' could be inserted in Column D in the rows corresponding to where the colleague's name appears?
I have a formula in the Name Define part of excel in workbook that refers to another workbook. =IF(COUNTIF([DaysWorking.xls]Sunday!$A:$A,'2009'!I1)>0,1,"")
The DaysWorking.xls workbook is a data workbook, users may change the data and after they are done, they may exit the program but not save it. The DaysWorking.xls workbook should always revert back to the original form. I've put a read only property on it, but the problem lies when the user saves the file under Save/As function. Excel then updates the link to whatever the user saves the file as. Is there a way to make sure that the formula never get's changed?
is it possible to concatenate in such a way that formatting is retained? For example, my =CONCATENATE formula refers to a cell containing 0.065, but which is formatted as a % so that the cell shows 6.5%. Concatenating that with text, however, produces "0.065 [text]"
I am trying to run this code to select every 2 pages and update the formula's...problem is it isn't actually selecting every 2nd page, and the pages it is selecting sure isn't updating with those formulas ...
Code: For i = 1 To Worksheets.Count - 1 Step 2 Sheets(i).Select Sheets(i + 1).Select Replace:=False With Sheets Range("F28").Select ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-2]/R[9]C[-2]"
I have a workbook with multiple pages, two of which are labled "Summary" and "Questionnaire" On the Summary sheet, I would like to have a button or permanent dialouge box that asks the user if he wants to print the "Questionnaire" sheet. The button should have 2 options YES and NO. If they say Yes, change the contents of cell A2 on the Questionnaire page to "1". If they selct NO, make contents of A2 on the Questionnaire sheet to "0"
I have a macro that reads the contents of A2 on all sheets and prints if >o
I have a color printer that is set to grayscale as a default. When I print my excel workbook and select it to print in color in the print driver properties the first page prints in color but the other pages print in black and white even though the other pages are in color.
I've set up a short bit of code to select the print area for several pages in a workbook, but have no idea how to get the code to "activate". I tried placing a command button on a page to activate the code, but for some reason it won't see or act upon any sheets outside the sheet the command button is on. Same goes for the "event" proceudres on pages (activate, change.selection, etc).
I have a named range that expands and contracts based upon the amount of data that is in some column. Call it AllData_UsedRange.
I have another named range that actually refers to a range. Call it AllData.
Column A Row2 56 Row3 44 Row4 65
AllData is a named range that refers to the range A2:A65536 AllData_UsedRange refers to A2:A4 by way of this formula. =OFFSET(AllData,0,0,COUNTA(AllData))
How to I obtain an address of AllData_UsedRange in VBA code?
These do not work... ThisWorkbook.Names("AllData_UsedRange").RefersToRange.Address Evaluate(ThisWorkbook.Names("AllData_UsedRange"))
Range("D2").Select ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = _ "=IF(LEFT(RC[-3],13)=""No list found"",""Data requested for ""&update!R[2]C[-1]&""/""&update!R[2]C&""/""&update!R[2]C[1]& "" out of range"",""Data downloaded for ""&update!R[2]C[-1]&""/""&update!R[2]C&""/""&update!R[2]C[1]& """")"Range("D2").Select...............
I'm trying to create a "master file" that can be used later (a tool other uses can pull up) on with datasets of varying size. I'd like to "data dump" a table of individuals with subsequent columns of various characteristics, then automatically compute various things. So then a user can dump their data into my file and "get the answer" immediately. I've seen some stuff on running one calculation on a dynamic number of cells, but let me illustrate why this is different. I want to perform a dynamic number of calculations, see below:
Each row (record) is a person, with some characteristics (numerical). Ultimately I have a few columns on the end with some computations (Excel formulas) I'd like to do. I'd like to do this for each person (that is, each row) in that data that I dump in. But the thing is, ahead of time we don't know how many people will be dumped in, and that changes (because I'd like this to be a tool...). So how do I tell Excel to compute things if there is a person in that row, but do nothing and leave cells blank if there isn't a person? Ideally I don't have millions of ifs testing for blank cells either. I'd like to do this with Excel functions only and not VBA, if at all possible.
When I am writing a formula that includes a lookup, it returns the # NAME? error in the spreadsheet. If I delete the trailing ), retype it, and hit enter then the formula returns the correct value. How do I get the formula to work correctly as it is written to the sheet from VBA!
Here's the line of code that writes the formula to the worksheet:
I am working on word documents that has financial numbers on them. I am copying word pages to excel to calculate the numbers by using formulas and etc. I will cut to the chase; is there a way or a macro to insert into an excel template workbook(.xltx) when we open the template there will be a command button to select the word document (which we want to copy its pages) to excel sheets. When a new page begins a new sheet will be created and the page will be pasted on the new sheet.
It is not important if it has to have a command button to select the word document it is ok to run the macro and select the word document and it does not has to populate sheets according to length of word document (I can create lost of free sheets on the template)
The main idea is to gain the time I spend on copying the word document to excel sheets. Some documents can be very long (100 pages). I am using MS Office 2007.
I triend to export data but excel does not allow me to select word documents.
I have a question with picking out certain word in the column. I am trying to write a formula that would allow me to pick out names that has first 3 alphabetical letters from the columns. The column has a lot of different names, but the one that I would want my automation to pick out is similar to this, C, AR, AA-103, BG-2056, HJE-1100, etc. However, in the same column, I have other words like elevtar, hsvte, lvnrm, etc. that I do not want my formula to pick out.
i have a workbook that draws numbers from other workbooks.For some reason every time i close and reopen it the fields are blank.I have to go in and open each workbook for the cells to populate.
I'm trying to execute a macro and it won't put the focus (radio button) to select x pages wide by x pages tall in the Page Setup/Page/Scaling Area. I looked at the macro and can't find a setting in the code but yet the focus won't change. What can I do about this? In other words the radio button stays selected as "adjust to "" % of normal size. Here's the code...
I have a model that makes projections based on annual growth rates. However, I need to evaluate the data based on monthly intervals. With an 8% return on an investment of $1,000,000 my ending balance at the end of the year should be $1,080,000 and in year 2 it would be $1,166,400 and so on. In order to evaluate the monthly data I need each month in year 1 to be based off $1,000,000, so it would be 8%/12=.006666% or $6,666.66 per month. The next year would be based off $1,000,000 + (6,666.66*12) = $1,080,000 and each month would be $7,200.
All sheets are basically the same except some minor values, names and addresses. There is one page per sheet and all pages are in portrait format. The print preview shows all the pages in order but when I print it, it makes multiple print jobs of 1 to 2 pages each and prints them all out of order. I don't know why it is splitting up the workbook or why it changes the order. I print and reorder these weekly, which is a major pain. It comes out in the same order each time but it is the wrong order.
I'm having a problem referring to the value in my text boxes. I'm trying to refer the value in those to certain columns and rows that will be deleted after.
My file has a code that refers to a dynamic named range. When I run the macro that range gets corrupted and I cannot figure it out why. before the macro the named range refers to:
I need to put a formula which will show me required quantities under a relevant date which is already calculated in an aside table.
In the cell E8 I want it to look up for A8 in the table A35:AR45. Then in that row to find a date which is exactly the same or smaller than E7 and bring up all summed quantities from the table A50:A55 (quantities summed must be in the same column where the relevant date was found and in the row where the requirend part number is).
In the other hand I need to doin the cell H8 to llok up for A8 in the ableA35:AR45. Then in that row to find a date which is exactly the same as in H7 and bring up all summed quantities from the table A50:A55 (quantities summed must be in the same column as the relevant date was found and in the row where the required part number is).

If one wants to copy a formula from the "Refers to" box and the formula extends past the right side of the box, how does one use "select all" or mark the whole formula from beginning to end so it can be copied without messing up the formula. At the moment, when I try this, it changes the formula to include the active cell of the worksheet that's open when I use the Ctrl + c etc. I have tried Ctrl + Ins and Ctrl + a and Ctrl + c. None of these are working for me.
