I have a file contain some links with the other file. I want to remove these links but I don't know which cell contain the links. Is there anyway that can let me know which cell contains links so i needn't search one by one?
View 4 RepliesI have two worksheets, one with detail monthly information and one with YTD information. So let's say the three numbers I want to capture in the YTD sheet are in columns B, G and I on the monthly sheet. January's data might be in B5, G5 and I5. February's data is in B12, G12 and I12 and so on.
On the YTD sheet in cell C2 I link to Monthly!B5 and in C3 I link to Monthly!B12 so cells C2 to C13 on the YTD sheet show the monthly totals from column B on the detail sheet. On the YTD sheet, cells C20 to C31 show the monthly totals from column G on the monthly sheet, so cells G5, G12, etc. And finally, cells C40 to C51 on the YTD sheet show monthly totals form column I on the monthly sheet.
In the past I've always created all these links manually. After creating the links in C2 to C13 on the YTD sheet, is there a way to use a formula in C21 that uses the link in C2 to create a link for G5?
In a worksheet, I have 15,000 links to data files as follows:
'C:DataA1[DataA1]
'C:DataA2[DataA2] and so on.....
I would like to replace them as follows:
'C:DataB1[DataB1]
'C:DataB2[DataB2] and so on ....
As you can see, I only want A to be changed to B, however, when I use Find &
Replace, it will prompt me the location of the new link file for every single
replacement.. 15,000 !.
I have inherited a large spreadsheet. When it opens I get a warning message "This workbook contains one or more links that cannot be updated". When I click "Edit Links" the dialoge tells me that it is looking for a file in a folder called "All Daily Tasks". now I know that this folder no longer exists. I have found all the cells that had formulae refering to it, and pointed them in the new, correct folder, but I still get the warning message. I have cleared all Named Ranges, so that isn't the problem. And I have done a search for "All Daily Tasks", but this has come up blank. I know I can break the link, but I want to know where the link is, in case it needs updating. How do I find the cell with the "link that cannot be updated" if the search facility can't locate it?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a document (unfortunately I cannot attach it) in Excel 365 that each time I open it I get the usual prompt that it is calling an external link. As much as i'd love to hide the popup I need to find the link to solve to problem but I'm at a loss.
Simply breaking the links doesn't work for some reason, so I've tried updating the source to reflect the current file. No luck there.
I've searched the workbook for the name of the link in question, searching for all formula for name itself as well as variants of "[" and ".xlms".
I don't see anything in the name manager referencing that external file.
I don't recall if I copied from that particular document, I may have as it was a duplicate file. I tried looking over the cells I believe I copied from it but didn't see the reference.
I've installed Kutools and Bill Manville (MS MVP) FindLink Tool. Both of which says there is no external link.
I've looked at the compatibility checker which basically just says, yes there is an external link but give no insight on how to address.
I've tried a couple of macros, some of which crashed excel, some of which simply said that there was an external link but not how to find it. In my frustration I forgot which one that was but I'm about to try that approach again and look for that code.

I have a column who's content is determined via about 6 nested if statements from data on that row. That cell is then conditionally formatted to a certain color based on the text that is ultimately printed from the nested ifs (simply an extra visual legend for the text). All of this contributing info and about 1000 lines items make a very large and difficult to print page. What I am trying to do is a make a summary sheet that simply takes the index number of these 1000 rows and copies or links the conditional formatting of the mentioned cell onto this number on another sheet. I have already linked this status cell and put it adjacent to the index number which works well in that with two columns I can show the index and status but if I could combine the color of the status cell onto the index cell, it would be even better. I am pretty sure another conditional format for this summary sheet would not be possible or be extremely complex since the contents of the index cell I am conditionally formatting have no bearing on the conditions for the format. Was hoping there is some VBA magic that could simply mimic the conditional formatting from one cell and put it on another.

I would like to have a link in a merged set of cells that puts the insertion point to another cell. Scenario: In cell k30, the user puts in the amount of credit card debt a individual has, and scripts the user based on that information. Later on, they get a more accurate running total of the amount of debt and need to change the amount in k30 for an accurate quote. After ther running total, in cell j172(a merged box for instructions) i instruct the user to be sure to enter the new total in cell K30.
Questions:
1. Is there a way to put a button or a link that would put the insertion point back up to K30 automatically, but allow the user to change it themselves and not change it automatically?
I would like to ask if there's a way that i can create a link in a cell to another cell. Sample: in cell A1: there's a word "click to go to cell A150" in this case i dont have to use scroll down to go to cell A150.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a column on a spreadsheet containing the last four (XXXX) or in some cases six (XX-XXXX) if there are duplicates of the last four SSN. I manually enter these as needed. I also create a folder that will be named the last four or six in the same format that is in the excel spreadsheet. Is there a simple way to automate the linking of these cells to the external folders?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a macro that copies a sheet and renames it:
Copies "Q114" and renames it to "Q214".
Q114 is defined as OLD in my VBA code
Q214 is defined as NEW in my VBA code.
I also have a third sheet, call it "results", which picks up cell values, ie cell A1 in "Q114", but now I want it to use cell A1 "Q214". The values hasn't been filled in, so I need a link between them:

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have is a summary worksheet with two columns. One column is for Project ID number and the other is an address link to a specific cell in the worksheet corresponding to the Project ID. Perhaps the best way to explain this is by giving an example:
Project ID (Column 1)
00-111
Balance (Column 2)
='C:Financial Sheets[00-111.xlsx]Phase_21'!$H$1
As you can see the spreadsheets are named after the Project ID number. What I would like to do, if possible, is instead of typing in the name of the spreadsheet for each project in column 2 (Balance), I could somehow reference the cell value in column 1 (Project ID). Something like this:
Project ID (Column 1)
00-111
Balance (Column 2)
='C:Financial Sheets["A2".xlsx]Phase_21'!$H$1..........

Is it possible to link a sheetname?
I have a list of employees on sheet1 and each employee has there own sheet with their name as the sheet name. Each sheet contains a form that the employees need to fill in.
I have created several extra sheets for new employees and I would like these sheet names to be linked to a cell on sheet1. This way the only updating I need to do when receiving new employees is enter there name to the list in sheet1.
In Excel it's possible to create a link dependent of a cell.
Example
='C:UsersAMDesktop[" & C9 & "]Sheet1'!$B$3
where C9=Andrew.xls
I am trying to convert a formula that refers to another workbook as text.
E.g. in cell A1 the formula is "= '[Management Pack for January 2014.xlsx]Monthly Income Statement'!$G$23"
How do I in cell A2 show the reference "'[Management Pack for January 2014.xlsx]Monthly Income Statement'!$G$23" as Text?
The above formula changes the whole time.
Sample data:
Machine Part Number machine 1 123 machine 2 123 machine 3 123 machine 1 123 machine 2 456 machine 1 456 machine 3 456
i need to based on tis sample data come out with sth like tt:
Used In: 123 Machine 1, Machine 2, Machine 3 456 Machine 2, Machine 1, Machine 3
I need to group those machines under 1 part number. For instance, part 123 is used in which machines, I need to state them in a way like above. But repeated should not be stated again.
In Excel, I have a sheet for each team that I manage. Each sheet lists the team members and displays their picture below their names. Some people are on multiple teams/sheets.
I have a master list with everybody's name and picture that I copy and paste the pictures from when putting a team together. This has become a very tedious process.
Is there a way I can type the person's name on a team sheet and have their picture automatically appear below their name? I don't know if this can be done with some kind of lookup or if it will involve VB. I tried making the picture the background of an Autoshape or comment, but I could not figure out how to dynamically change the picture based on the name in a cell.
Is there a way of embedding a formula in a worksheet so that the tab name of each worksheet is linked to a value in a cell on that sheet? (I don't want to run a macro)
In other words if the cell name is changed, the page name changes automatically.
Is there a way for your linked data to cary over formatting such as Bolds, borders, fonts and colors?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am trying to build a stock watchlist in excel 2007 with a dynamic link to a DDE server (paid for).There is no add-in or plug-in, I just CTL ALT & drag each code from a watchlist in the program I am using and place it in a cell, however can only choose one data field at a time. There are 14 data fields and over 150 codes in my list which makes 2100 cells. (My guess is about 3 days work)
I would like to just enter the stock code in say column A (A3) and with each DDE data field (e.g. lastprice, open, cose, high etc) entered in subsequent columns have it lookup the stock code in cell A3 and return the correct value based on the code in column A, rather than entering each cell individually.
Is it possible to write a macro or vba code to create the cell formula so I can just fill down and save myself 3 days work?
The DDE server I am using is formatted like this:
PROGRAMNAMElDATAFIELD!STOCKCODE
example
MISDATAlLASTPRICE!BHP.ASX
I thought I might be able to do something like the following, but it doesn't seem to work.
MISDATAlLASTPRICE!$A3
Note: The DDE server can only be accessed while the other program is running and is password protected
Is it possible to link a cell e.g. A10 that has a time value in it (there is a formula in this cell that puts in the time value) to another cell in a range of cells e.g. B1:B1000 that has the same time value?
I know someone out there knows how to do this.
I'm trying to get a multi-selected list box to populate cell A2 with a concatenated list of what is selected; cell link works for single selections only? Is there any code, vba or function that can accomplish this?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI work for an IT company who build their own PC's. And we use a simple Excel 2003 spreadsheet to piece-together and price-up PC's for retail, I've attached an example of the spreadsheet for you to see. It uses basic formulas so we can see at-a-glance things like VAT figures, margin, profit etc. Each PC we sell is contained within one Excel file, and each PC has it's own Workbook tab.
The problem I want to solve is whenever we change a component or price, we have to do each system manually, which gets very repetetive and time consuming. What I'd like to be able to do is change the price of, let's say, the motherboard, and have the price be reflected across each of the PC's using that same motherboard on each seperate tab. This same system would apply when we change a product name, product ID etc.

How can we program an auto filter a table linked to a cell. For example I have a table with 4 columns (A9:D20) and the 2nd row of the sheet is the filter item (A2, B2, C2 & D2).
Lets say column A has a list of months, column B has a list of names, column C is sales figure, column D is the customer. How can I filter let say for the total sales of Mr. X in the month of January.
I came across a code like this but I don't know how to apply it to my sheet. Of course this code is referring to a different table and links but I just need to learn how to apply this code to my sheet:
