Cell Reference- Able To Reference Two Cells To The Left Even As More Cells Are Added

Jun 11, 2008

I have 5 columns set up: A,B,C,D,E
D is the sum of A and B
E is the sum of A,B,and C

As I add in a new column to the right of C (call it C2), I need D (which has shifted over one) to sum A,B, and C.

I also need E (which has also shifted over one) to sum A,B,C, and C2.

Essentially I need a function in a cell that will be able to reference two cells to the left even as more cells are added.

Cell Reference :: Formula To Reference New Cells

Feb 15, 2010

I have lets say 12 months of data. I have formulas that reference the latest 6 months. When I insert a new column to input a new month, how can I make the formulas include the new months without manually updating them.

EXAMPLE:

12 months of data exist in cells B3:M3 going from B3(oldest) to M3(newest). Formulas reference latest 6 months of data in cells H3:M3. When a new month hits, I insert a column after column M.I would like the formulas to now reference cells I3:N3 which is now the newest 6 months.

Reference To Cell Directly To The Left

Aug 10, 2009

Is there any way to refer to a cell that is directly to the left of the current cell?

I need to create a Comma-Separated Value file with the Excel formula in the CSV file. Because of this, I do not know the current cell location, but want to do something like =(Cell directly to the left of me) + (Cell two cells to the left of me)

Fastest Way To Reference A Cell - Range() Or Cells() ?

Dec 22, 2008

I have a loop that executes roughly 7.7 million times when my VBA program runs. Neednless to say it take a long time to run - usually a couple days.

The inner-most loop contains a line of code from way back in my early vba programming days when I knew even less than the small amount I know about programming now (and if you can follow that sentence you might be able to understand some of the spaghetti code I write :-) ).

for k = 1 to n

if Worksheets("Personell").Range("D" & Trim(Str(k))) > dtCompleted then ...

Would it be faster to use this syntax (which I just found out about):

if Worksheets("Personell").Cells(k,4) > dtCompleted then ...

It would cut out 2 functions calls, trim() and str(), so it would be faster, right?

I am almost embarassed to post the Range("D" & Trim(Str(k)) line of code because it looks so convoluted now, but that's how I learned to program, just fumbling through until it ran...

So in short, I just wanted to confirm that the cells() syntax run faster before I spend an hour editing and tested.

Copy Formulas In Cells Without Changing Reference Cell?

Jul 7, 2014

I'm preparing an accounting model for my office use. How to solve the copying of formula to all other cells.

The detail is here:

Sheet 1:
1) I've entered a number 1000 in L2

Sheet 2:
1) I've entered a values in columns D,E,F,G
2) Calculations :
at G2 : the formula is =D2*Sheet1!L2

The problem is when I Copy the formula in G2 through G3, G4, G5........... it changes to =D3*Sheet1!L3, =D4*ValidData!L4, =D5*ValidData!L5 and so on... but it should be =D3*Sheet1!L2, =D4*ValidData!L2, =D5*ValidData!L2, so that the L2 value shall be constant for calculations in all cells.

Highlight Cells Based On Cell Reference On Another Worksheet

May 27, 2014

I am trying to find a way to automatically highlight all the cells specified by the cell references in a column on another worksheet (which will constantly have new values added).

On the attached sample, the 'Data Before' tab shows the base data before any highlighting. As cell references are added to the 'References' tab in 'column A' I want the respective cell to be highlighted on the 'Data Before' tab resulting in the 'Data After' tab and each time a new cell reference is added to the 'References' tab, the respective cell is then highlighted on the 'Data Before' tab.

I would like to have control over the highlight colour so that a different highlight colour can be specified for each date change, i.e. all cell references that are shown on the same date are the same colour but where the date changes a different highlight colour can be specified.

Fill Empty Column Cells With Reference To Adjacent Cells

Aug 11, 2008

I would like a macro that when run, finds empty cells in a column within the used range and fills them with the same formula in the other cells in the same column but relative to the row.

I have a basic understanding of VBA so if someone can set me on the right track i'll have a go myself as i appreciate this would take a while to write out from scratch.

Reference Newly Added Sheet

Sep 23, 2007

I have a userform which creates a new sheet using TextBox2.value as the sheet name. Here is the code I am using and it works fine. Worksheets.Add(After:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)).Name = TextBox2.Value

Here is the problem - After additional code is run on the newly created sheet I need to take the value (Which will be text) from cell AM6 of the newly created sheet and place it on an activecell on Sheet3. Seems simple enough but I do not know how to address this new sheet as I do not know what the name will be. Here is the code I have tried (and various renditions of it)

ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=TextBox2.Text!R[-9]C[32]"

I do not want to specifically name the new sheet as many sheets could be created, unless you could tell me a way to do that.

Auto Generate A Comment Box Based On A Cell Value That Has Variable Reference Cells

Jan 30, 2010

I have been given the following code and it works great. I now need to adapt it to the following scenario: In the attached sheet, the user has to select either, "Suburban" or "Squad" in row 5. If the user selects, "Suburban" I need this script to compare the values they enter in a given row to the value in column "B".
If the user selects, "Squad" I need this script to compare the values they enter in a given row to the value in column "C".

Look at row 48, for example. If the user enters, "Suburban" in cell D5 then the value they enter in cell D48 should equal "1". If it does not equal "1" then it should proceed with the adding of a comment. Conversely, if the user enters, "Squad" in cell D5 then the value the enter in cell D48 should equal "2". If it does not equal "2" then it should proceed with the adding of a comment.

I am using the find function to establish the row number in a spreadsheet for an edit process.

Code:

the cells in Range("B:B") are linked to another worksheet. If I copy paste values on the cells in Range("B:B") the code above works a treat.

Cell X44 is a VLOOKUP that retrieves "Joe"

Let's say Joe goes on vacation. The workbook user goes in and puts a blue fill in C3. Cell X44 would also need to change automatically.

Unchanging Sheet Reference When Rows Are Added

Oct 28, 2009

I have a sheet titled PartNumbers....which contains in numerical order just 1 column of random 1, 2, or 3 character numerical part numbers. nothing special. and not necessarily in 1 by 1 order. like 45,46,47,48,49, it will skip number more like 45, 49, 50, 55. I have another sheet titled FinalReport.....that takes the raw data i have from the PartNumbers sheet and outputs the data onto a nice pretty looking designed sheet.

on 1 column of FinalReport I have =PartNumber!C2, C3, C4 and so on for the total number of parts i have to fill in the FinalReport sheet for each cell. The Question is, on PartNumbers when I want to add a part, say my sheet goes number 45 then 49 and i want 46... What I do is right click row number and select Insert, that adds a new row for my new part number. Now that move doesn't correspond to FinalReport now, it just removes the row i inserted. How do I get everything to flow to FinalReport?

SUMIFS To Sum Cells If Reference Cells Are Blank?

Dec 19, 2013

I am trying to use the SUMIFS function to sum the cells in one column if the cells in a reference column ARE blank, and if the cells in a different reference column fall within a date range.

-Column F contains currency, and is the sum range
-Column H contains dates as well as blanks, and I need the criteria to look for cells that ARE blank.
-Column A contains dates, and I need the criteria to be <= 01 Feb 2013 and > 31 Dec 2012

This is the formula I have tried, but it keeps adding the cells in F if the cells in H ARE NOT blank. Clearly, it's an issue with "<>" and probably a very simple solution, but I just can't figure it out.

=SUMIFS('2013'!F9:F59,'2013'!H9:H59,"<>",'2013'!A9:A59,">"&DATE(2012,12,31),'2013'!A9:A59,"<"&DATE(2013,2,1)

Adjust Formula Range Reference As Columns/Rows Added

Apr 4, 2008

I'm using a template that has formulas using a $ sign to attempt to stop the ranges they refer to changing. The problem is, when I use the template (which involes Access importing some data and adding columns to the sheet the formula refers to in the process) the rows referred to in the formula change in line with the number of rows of data that have been imported. Only the row numbers change not the column headings. So for example:

=( SUMPRODUCT(((Workings!$H$3:$H$1000=Explanation!B9)+(Workings!$E$3:$E$1000="Buy")*(Workings!$J$3:$J$1000))))-998

becomes
=(SUMPRODUCT(((Workings!$H$511:$H$1508=Explanation!B10)+(Workings!$E$511:$E$1508="Buy")*(Workings!$J$511:$J$1508))))-998
