I have a table upon which I wish to perform vlookups, however I need to be able to adjust the range that the vlookup searches to include any data that may be added in the future without having to go into the sheets and change the vlookup.
Example
Name DOB
Tom 01/01/81
Dick 02/02/82
Harry 03/03/83
if someone then adds
Fred 04/04/84
I would like the vlookup to automatically accommodate the extra entry without needing any changes.
I've seen this done on data validation with the following formula:
I am using the =today() function to places todays date in a cell...how can I get the next to cells to automatically display dates that are 2 months and 4 months later without having to change them manually every day. FWIW, this is for an certification expiration chart.
This is for a call centre and sales office. there are 3 tabs. Tab 1 represents the values that we update at the end of each week which then gives a running total over an 8 week period and then an average below. there is a seperate table for each staff member. Tab two is for one team of people and tab two is for the other team. Namely LG team and Sales Team. the tab 2 and 3 are to show league tables that both collect data from tab 1, but then create a league table showing who is top dog over the 8 week period. But this also has to self adjust to be in order.
on tab 2 and 3, the tables on the left will be hidden once complete, but are there to work out the league. the table on the right is then there to put and show the league in the right order. I HOPE THAT MAKES SENSE, COS EVEN I'M LOST NOW. I've followed previous advice on this and inputted what I think are the right formulas, but for some reason it's coming up with the wrong answers and several names are being repeated which are wrong. For example even when ben perhaps is number 2, it will show rahim as number 2 and number 3. why is this?
also, how do I get by the problem of on the odd occassion when perhaps ben and rahim have the same stats and are joint second, but it will only show ben as 2 and ben as 2 again, leaving rahim out of it. WOW. I'm glad I've got that out of my system. I was doing the washing up yesterday donig Excel formulas in my head. But the washing up got done at least.
Moving Colored Text within a automatically adjusting table containing More Than 3 Colors, from Coloum to Coloum. i have managed to put this little chart together to use on our gaming wedsite but i would like to go one step further with it. may table automatically moves the colums up and down the table as i enter the infomation in to it,, "but" I the colours in the text do not stay the same as they move up and down the coloums. how to make the coloured text keep its colour in the table as it alters its position in the table
I have this spreadsheet that I am creating schedules for my employees since our scheduling software at work is horrible to work with. It calculates total hours for each employee at the far right of the rows, and calculates total hours for each day in the columns. The formulas that calculate the hours for each day is set up to automatically deduct 30 minutes from a shift, for lunch, if they're scheduled for more than 5 hours (the gray shaded employee rows are for managers and that only deducts 30 mins if they're shift exceeds 8 hours).
I'm familiar enough to put somewhat complex formulas together, but I don't understand it enough to always make them work correctly. What I'm wanting to be able to do is add or subtract entire rows (add new employees or remove old), and have my formulas for calculating the total hours to still work. Right now if I delete a row the cell with the formula in it says #REF!. I can fix this by going through the formula and manually deleting everything in that contains those other cells, but the formula is huge, and it's pretty tedious going through the whole thing when it feels like there should be a simpler way of doing it.
TLDR: I want to be able to add/remove a row and have my cells currently on row 36 update the formula correctly.
I tried to search the forum for my unique problem but had no luck. As you will see attached, I have a series of excel buttons I need to duplicate and have target a different set of cells. I am hoping there is a way to avoid manually doing this.
The goal of the document is to push the button when both colours in the row and column interact (research on birds). There are two additional behaviours with an exact same set of buttons but they need to target "Body Rush" and "Food Displacement" tables underneath. I need all the buttons on one page since multiple behaviours happen simultaneously that need to be recorded.
I have something like 100+ modules in VBA I have created, I am hoping there is an easier way to do this so I don't have to create another ~200 modules in order to get the last two behaviours setup.
I am hoping there is either an easier button system or way to make buttons adjust somehow.
I have a working VLOOKUP formula for generating a one page inventory list. It grabs values from worksheets in other spreadsheets. The only problem is it doesn't automatically update.
I'm trying to write a VBA code to automatically update using a vlookup but I seem to be running into trouble, partically with the lookup value part of my vlookup. I basically have a range of dates in column B and want the values to appear in column C. Yes, I know I just type the forumla in column C and drag it down, but I really need to do it in VBA, as I want this to update when additional dates are added.
This is what I have thus far. The code keeps looping at i = i +1 and doesn't stop unless interuppted.
Sub update() Dim i As Integer, L() As Range, s As Integer, V As Double Sheets(1).Activate s = Range("D:D").Select On Error Resume Next While s "" i = i + 1 ReDim Preserve L(i To 1) L(i) = s Wend If i = 0 Then MsgBox "No dates found" End If Exit Sub
For i = 1 To UBound(L) V = WorksheetFunction.VLookup(s, Range("Inputs"), 2, 0) Next i End Sub
Is there a way to automatically change the column index number in the VLOOKUP formula when copying the formula to columns? For example, when I copy a VLOOKUP formula from column A to column B, the cell references will change, but the column index remains the same. I'd like the column index to be increased by 1.
As I copy and past my lookup formula down the page it is changing the lookup range which I think is what is giving me so many #N/A results. My first Formula is =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A2,Coors2!A2:D3765,3,FALSE),IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A2,'AB2'!A2:C13944,3,FALSE),(VLOOKUP(A2 ,'WM2'!A2:C4843,3,FALSE))))
Then for instance at line 59 the formula is =IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A59,Coors2!A59:D3822,3,FALSE),IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A59,'AB2'!A59:C14001,3,FALSE),(VLOOKU P(A59,'WM2'!A59:C4900,3,FALSE))))
column A = weeks (A2:A50) i.e. P1W1, P1W2, P1W3....P12W4 etc column B = headcount (B2:B50) i.e. 5, 7, 5...10 etc
Essentially my criteria is "looking for last week and give me headcount" i.e. my lookup criteria is P7W5 ....however if P7W5 has no data, i want the lookup to go up or offset to the row above (it may be one to 4 rows above)....
I have two worksheets in one document. On sheet 'M_Admission' there are numbers for each week. can those numbers be automatically copied to the correct cell on sheet 2 'M_Actual' See the attached Excel worksheet to see what I mean. (Excel 2002)
What I want is that I have a table like below (but it's long for 52 weeks) and long down with Vlookups. I want the formula with which I can just do the copy-paste and it will work. W1, W2.... are the sheet names with exactly the same formats inside.
A B C D E
5
W1 W2 W3 W4
6 Sales 10 #N/D!
[Code] .......
The base formula (for W1) is: =Vlookup($a6;'W1'!$A:$B;2;0)
What I want, is the formula which instead of "W1" will write the sheet name which is in a row 5 (basically - cell name which is equal the sheet name), so with just dragging and moving the formula I will got the data from different sheets.
I tried this: =Vlookup(A6;'indirect("c5";1)'!$A:$B;2;0)
But I got #N/D! as in the example, instead of the numbers (yes, I put numbers into W1 and W2 sheets .
I am trying to figure out a formula for the boss, but I just cannot wrap my mind around what I need to do. I’m sending out an S.O.S.! If you can figure this out, please respond.
=MIN(b4*12-25%,b4*12-500) + MIN(c4*12-25%,c4*12-500) fills in the cell with the correct answer, but not quite the answer that I need. Let me illustrate:
The first part of the formula is to take b4 times 12 minus 25% --if this amount is less than or equal to 500 then use the amount. If it is more than 500 then use 500.
(b4*12-25%) 234.25 * 12 = 2811 – 25% = 2811 2811 - 25% = 702.75 500 Since this amount is more than 500, 500 should be used instead. ~~this is actually the amount that I want to show in the cell, the amount saved~~ 2811 - 500 = 2311 ~~this is the answer that is showing up in the cell, which is not quite what I need. ~~
I want to find the answer to this question: b4 times 12 equals ?, subtract 25% or 500 from that, insert this answer into cell.
One of my biggest problems with this is that I can’t even figure out how to say what it is that I need. The formula is doing exactly what I'm telling it to do and I can't even figure out what it is that isn't working. This formula is confusing my brain…!
I am trying to set up a spreadsheet which automatically calculates the start and end dates of project tasks, by looking at the order in which tasks need to be completed. I have attached a spreadsheet to show what I am trying to do.
I am trying to make some additions to this code. Basically what it does is copy some data from another sheet. Now there are two types of copying here.
1. A ‘call value’ from another sheet is copied to this sheet.
2. The formula from the previous cell in the column is copied. (eg. Formula in C3 is copied to C4, formula in D3 is copied to D4, and so on)
So the macro works fine for all cases EXCEPT the initial entry, which will be in Row3, that’s where the formulae begin. So I need some kind of an If-Then statement.. to say if A3 is empty then do the following, If not then do something else....
I'm working on a spreadsheet to rank stores based on how they perform in certain metrics. These metrics are weighted, and occasionally a metric for a store will get waived. I'm having trouble figuring out how to handle this without making a custom formula for each occurrence.
I have the a file that is downloaded from AS400. The time column is presented in 24 hours format in column D. For example : 92114 means 9.21 am. I need a formula to adjust the date in column B based on the following criteria:
1) If the time is after 2.00 pm, adjust to the next working day taking into account public holidays in column H
2) If the time is before 2.00 pm, remain the same day
3) if the time is after 2.00 pm and it is Friday, adjust to the next working day taking into account public holidays in column H
I am trying to figure out if something here is even possible. I have an order form and a price list. I get different pricing based on the quantity I purchase. I would like to have the price auto populate based on the quantity entered. The price will be on another sheet.
I couldn't find a lot of info but I also may not know where to look.
example:
if (b2<62) then price is ($sheet2.b2) if (b2<124) then price is ($sheet2.c2) if (b2<372) then price is ($sheet2.d2)
below is some code from a spreadsheet I am working on,,,,,, as you can see it adds items to a dropdown list in a combo box. This may require an update at another time,,,,, is it possible for the list to be updated from a list in the spreadsheet, therfore preventing people from accessing the code
