Apply Named Cell From Another Worksheet To Existing Formula?
Sep 12, 2009
I am trying to apply named cell from another worksheet to existing formula.
For example I have a formula in sheet2 which looks like =sheet1!A1+sheet1!B1. I then subsequently name sheet1!A1 = Jan and sheet1!B1 = Feb. Thinking that if I apply these names the formula in sheet2 would look like =Jan+Feb. However I get the message "Microsoft Office Excel cannot find any references to replace" when I try to apply the names using Excel menu "Insert - Name - Apply".

I'm currently applying these formulae manually, and also instructing other people to do the same, due to my lack of understanding of macros. Hopefully someone can give me some instruction as to how to do this automatically. I'd like people to be able to open sheets sent as normal CSV's and apply a macro to get them into the right format, changing only rows with data in them.
These are the instructions I'm currently sending:
In cell n1 enter:
full phone number
in cell m2 enter:
=RIGHT("00000000" & J2,8)
Drag m2 to last record
In cell n2 enter:
=CONCATENATE(61,I2,M2)
Drag n2 to last record
In cell o1 enter:
Date of call
in cell o2 enter:
=DATE(MID(C2,7,4),LEFT(C2,2),MID(C2,4,2))

I need to do something to my workbook, and I need to do this task:
When I insert/delete a column between E & F in sheet 1, the formula (not the value) in the column E was applied too to the new column I've inserted/deleted..
Then, when that happened to the sheet 1, It would happen too to the other sheet automatically..
So I don't need to insert/delete the row and copy the formula manually for each worksheet..
I know that I could simply solve it with grouping the sheet tab..
But I have plenty of data that needed to be inserted and applied with the formula..
I will attach the little example : insert.xlsx
And one more thing, I received this VB code from [URL] ..... for inserting the column:
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetBeforeRightClick(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim lngRow As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet
If Target.Row = 1 Then
Cancel = True
[Code] .....
And this code for deleting the column:
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetBeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim lngRow As Long
Dim ws As Worksheet
If Target.Row = 1 Then
Cancel = True
[Code] .....

Instead of looping through 700,000 lines of data and applying a formula one by one, isn't there a way to simply apply the lines below to all cells in a range at once?

I am trying to apply data validation to a column of cells using named ranges. However, each row has a unique associated named range. For example:
A_______B
Birds____*
Dogs____*
Cats____*
I can easily apply data validation to these three rows separately using named ranges.
Ie three separate named ranges:
=Birds
=Dogs
=Cats
However, I need a way to quickly apply data validation to column B using different named ranges for each row because there are about 2,000 rows. Is there a way to reference text in the cells of column A that contains the name of the named range? Or maybe a bit of VB code that could do it quickly?

I downloaded the checkbook register from Microsoft.com and am trying to add a
few cells at the end to quickly calculate my outstanding debits and credits
so that I can balance my statements automatically. I figured out how to write
the formula properly (eventually), but the cells will not take on the
currency format no matter what I do. I have tried pasting the format from the
other cells within the register, tried clearing the format and reapplying the
currency format, tried accounting, etc.

I'm using the code below to create sheets and copy pertinent data for each value found in column O on my data sheet.
Code:
Sub CreateSheets()
Dim WBO As Workbook
Dim ThisWS
[Code]....
What I'm now trying to do, is apply a formula for each cell, in columns C:N for each newly created sheet. The formula is 'The value of 100 minus the value of the cell'.
I've tried adding
Code:
cell.Value = 100 - cell.Value
to differing points of the script but I recieve a 'Type mismatch error.

I have a named range "ABC", range is ("A1", "A3", "A5"). Now I need to use Macro to extend the range to ("A1", "A3", "A5", "A7"), that is, adding "A7" to the existing named range "ABC".

Cell A1 is going to be used as my true/false value to trigger the formula. Cell A2 must allow user input to calculate "what if" scenarios however, if cell A1 value = true then cell A2 = 0.
I think I need to place my formula into A3 to allow the user their input to A2 without overwriting my formula. Problem is if I place the = sign in front of IF, the formula does not work the way I need it to. If I don't place the = sign in front of IF excel just treats it as a text entry.
=IF(A1="Actual",A2=0)
IF(A1="Actual",A2=0)
I have inherited this workbook and am just trying to automate the functionality to streamline.

I am using this code and it works fine:
Dim MyData As Range
Dim MyResult As Range
Set MyData = Range("E1:E1000000")
Set MyData2 = Range("F1:F1000000")
Set MyResult = Range("J4")
MyResult.Select
Selection.Formula = "=COUNTIFS(" & MyData.Address & ",""=Kim""," & MyData2.Address & ",""=done"" )"
Is there any way I can change the code so that it automatically finds the last cell as Im using Range("E1:E1000000") and Range("F1:F1000000") because there will not be more than 1000000 entries.

I'm using some workbook-scoped named formulas to define some dynamic ranges which will be referred to by numerous worksheets. The named ranges are defined like:
NAME: gTable_costDetailsEquipment
REFERS TO: =globalParameters!$B$5:INDEX(globalParameters!$B$5:$C$1048576,1+countAdjacentNonBlank
(globalParameters!$B$5,"down"),1+countAdjacentNonBlank(globalParameters!$B$5,"right"))
From either of the tabs "Reports" or "DOR_Template" the user can press the large "+" icon to add a report (which copies the template or the last report to a new sheet).
When this Sheet copy takes place, excel is repeating my named formulas - this time it's making LOCAL versions scoped to the newly made worksheet.
I've used this copy sheet trick before and have never had excel create new, locally scoped, named formula for each workbook level name.
I also just recently started using excel 2013, is this a problem with the new version? I've just never seen this problem, usually workbook-level names are NOT duplicated on sheet copy.

One of my work colleagues need to add a worksheet to an existing Excel Spreadsheet which has VBA behind it, but the worksheet is password protected. The developer who wrote the application has now left, so we have no idea what the password is. Is there anyway of getting round it, like cracking into the spreadsheet to find out the password, or another way?

I started cycling and I'm wanting some data. Referencing the below attached document, I want to take the info on Tab "Log - January 2014" and apply that information to Tab "Stats - Ride Type Data". I was able to use the countif formula for things such as temperature, wind, and feeling, but after staring at the computer for hours I cannot figure out how to apply that data to specific types of riding. I am wanting to know how many miles I travel via commute, road, or townie (shopping).

I did a search for " import text" and found some promising leads, but not exactly what I was looking for. I have tried running macros and looking at the code but don't know how to pass the file names from the the D47:D147 range to VBA(see below). I saw elsewhere that Excel can be told to create a temporary batch file, and that the batch file with the command "copy text1.txt+text2.txt+text3.txt all.txt" for example could be used to merge the 3 text files into a file called all.txt. I don't however know how specify the path where copy starts, to tell the batch file to look in subdirectories or to pass the file into Excel. I've posted this question yesterday to Yahoo Answers http://tinyurl.com/omers and http://tinyurl.com/rfww9 without much luck.
Below is the macro I would like:I have text files whose names are found in the range D47:D147 although without the appended ".txt" extension. The sheets can only contain one name sometimes, but on average 8 to 10, so in the average case only cells D47:D56 would have entries.The text files are found in the say H:Textfiles directory or subdirectories.I would like Excel to find these files, concatenate them with a row between each file, and paste the results into cell K251.Finally, the text import wizard should be used with a space as a delimiter and the last 3 columns (it's sometimes only 2) of the concatenated file, not imported.

I want to be able to do is to have a text value in a cell which will be the same as a named range and can be called from a formula in another cell. For example, I have three named ranges: JAN, FEB and MAR. Instead of having a formula which might read: =VLOOKUP("bill", JAN, 1, 1)
I would like to have in cell A1 the text value "JAN" so that the formula can read:
=VLOOKUP("bill", A1, 1, 1)
Then I can change which named range is used in the formula but changing the value in cell A1. When I try to do this, the formula just looks up the value as if cell A1 was the range rather than taking the value from A1 as the named range.

I'm using the following VBA code that highlights a selected cell or range of cells when selected (to more easily see what cells I've selected).
[Code] .......
I'd like to use this code on every worksheet within every workbook that I open. Right now I've only inserted the code in "This Worksheet" in a single workbook and that's the only place it works. I tried creating an Add In with the code so that it worked in all workbooks, but it doesn't work.

I am trying to reference a named cell in a VLOOKUP formula as the table_array parameter.
The Named Cell "Input1" contains a table array definition of '[Test.xls]Sheet1'!$H$10:$J$100
When I try VLOOKUP($D3,Input1,3,0) - This returns #N/A as a result.
When I try VLOOKUP($D3,INDIRECT(Input1),3,0) - This returns a #REF error.
When I copy and past the contents of the Input1 named cell directly into the VLOOKUP formula, it works so I know the array reference is valid.
I am not proficient in VBA so I would like to accomplish this using basic Excel formulas if possible. how I can reference the named cell and have the cell value returned in the VLOOKUP function?

I have several named ranges with 4 column each. The named ranges have all the same names but with the tow last digits ranging from 00 to 50 by increments of 5 (ie 00, 05, 10, 15 etc.). The 4 columns for each of the named ranges have the following headings; 10, 100, 50 ,70. I have two cells with drop down lists with the list of the suffixes of the named ranges in cell e5 (ie 00, 05, 10, etc) and in g5 a drop down list with the 4 headings for the columns (10, 100, 50, 70)
I want to refer to these 2 values so that in column B, I can get the values of the column chosen for the given named range. For example, the column "100" for the named range THRESHOLD_10. In cell C1, I entered the following formula ="THRESHOLD_"& E5 which gives me the named range name. I entered the following function in the first cell of column B = index(C1,2,G5) but get a #REF! answer. If I write the following formula =index(THRESHOLD_10,2,G5) I get the right value.
how to get about it, and indirect(C1), but still gets a #REF! message. When I evaluate the formula, the named range appears with quotes "" which might be the reason that it cannot work. I am nearly there...but for the syntax and cannot get that working!

This is what i have tried in a forumla:
=IF(ISERROR(IF(Search1="","No Place Found",INDEX(LocationsANDLocations2,MATCH("*"&Search1&"*",LocationsANDLocations2,0)))),"No Place Found",IF(Search1="","No Place Found",INDEX(LocationsANDLocations2,MATCH("*"&Search1&"*",LocationsANDLocations2,0))))
But its not finding anything on the second table, being LocationsTable2.
LocationTable is about 65500 rows, and next to it another row of 65500.
What is the best method of linking the them, so it can search for matched text in each cell, so it looks in LocationsTable then LocationsTable2 and so on.

I have software that exports to an excel file. The files are one or two page reports. The way the software dumps the reports into excel, it comes out looking pretty rough. The rows and columns aren't spaced very well, the fonts look like garbage, and nobody likes them.
I would like to apply formatting changes to these reports automatically without the end user having to do anything. So as soon as the document is opened up it bolds the column headers, adjusts column widths etc. The reports are auto generated so no formatting can be done when the reports are made.
There may also be different formatting done to different reports. The files will come out named something like, "Report_A_DDMMYYY.xls, Report_B_DDMMYYY.xls," etc. Report A, and Report B will likely need different formatting.
I'm not opposed to using VBA or whatever might be necessary to make this happen. I can learn anything I need to pretty quickly, I just don't know where to start with this.

Can you use Row & Column numbers in a Formula the way you can in VBA?
I want to do the same as Range(Cells(5,2)) in VBA EXCEPT in a Formula
because I want to use named ranges for the Row & column entries. (And I don't want to have to run a macro every time a change is made. The spreadsheet is huge enough already. It's slow on my machine & I have the biggets baddest PC in the company!)
Using Formulas only, (not VBA) I would like to create a Dynamic Named Range, LastUsedRow, which is the ROW NUMBER of the Last Used Cell in Column C
(it would = 470)
Also I have an existing Named Range HeaderRowNum (it = 16)
Currently I have a LOT of formulas like:
=SUMPRODUCT(($E17:$E470)*(--(CO17:CO470>0)))
problem is any new data must be added between Rows 17 & 470
So I would like to create dynamic new forumlas to read like:
SUMPRODUCT( (Cells(HeaderRowNum+1,5) : (LastUsed Row,5)) * (--(Cells(HeaderRowNum+1,93) : (LastUsed Row,93))>0) )...............
