Assuming I have 2 individual excel files and an index excel file (in reality, there are more than hundreds of file). For index excel, once the user enter part number (eg. 1 or 2), the excel will look for the part number excel file and determine vlookup function.
The only problem I have here is I can not make the index file automatically add the part number shown on most left column into the required formula (replace the part number file section).
I tried use the indirect function but this require each file to be opened, which is not possible for actual use. I am looking for a function that can work in closed worksheet.

I am currently trying to create a spreadsheet whereby if I enter certain text in a cell in Column A on worksheet 1 that correlates with text in a cell in Column A on Worksheet 2, then the description in Column B in Worksheet 2 is entered into Column B on worksheet 1.
For example, if worksheet 2 has the following:
Column A Column B
XXXX PRODUCT 1
YYYY PRODUCT 2
and I enter XXXX in column A on worksheet 1, I want Column B on worksheet 1 to automatically enter PRODUCT 1.
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 recorded a macro:
Code:
Sub Makro4()
Range("A4:C15").Select
Selection.ClearContents
[Code] ......
This code is working home on my MacBook, but I wonder if you have any suggestions for improvement? I will assign this macro to a button.
I use this to read cell content, add some text/characters (ie. [ and ]) and change the properties of the complete cell
Sub COMMENT()
Worksheets("DVD Lijssie").Activate
If ActiveCell.Value 0 Then ' Change all in to ... ... ...
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = ActiveCell.Value & " " & "]" & " " & "["
With ActiveCell.Font
.Name = "Arial Narrow"
.Size = 8
.ColorIndex = 16
End With
End If
End Sub
HOW can I change this vba-code so it leave's the content of the cell like it is and add some content with the use of let's say TexBox1 and ONLY use different font properties for the newely added content?
I have a big file here : [URL] .....
As you can see, the second column contains abstracts which I want to use to determine categories for each document (each line).
Categories are as followed :
Diabetes prevention -> keywords : sugar, diabet*, insulin*
Obesity prevention -> keywords : weight-loss, fat*, LDL
etc. (5-8 categories)
To target one keyword, I found this formula :
=IF(IFERROR(SEARCH("*diabet*"; $B3); 0); "Diabetes prevention"; " ")
What I would like to know is how to add more than one keywords in this formula.
I would also like to know, if it is even possible, how to put every categories in this column, so that i don't have a category per column ... It's hard to explain.
I want to have in front of each line the corresponding column. It means that the formula has to search for every keywords and select one or more appropriate categories.
Attached file 140515 Matchsheet.xlsx has formula that finds costs matching two criteria.
But the formula depends on me typing in the specific Worksheet Name: So to find the cost for 'Type 1' products, I enter:
=IFERROR(INDEX('Type 1'!$E$5:$F$11,MATCH($C$4,'Type 1'!$C$5:$C$11,0),MATCH($D$4,'Type 1'!$E$4:$F$4,0)),"")
I want the formula to "see" the sheet name as whatever is in a specific cell.
E.g. Cell B4 says "Type 2". The formula will be:
=IFERROR(INDEX('[WHATEVER NAME IS IN B4]'!$E$5:$F$11,MATCH($C$4,'[WHATEVER NAME IS IN B4]'!$C$5:$C$11,0),MATCH($D$4,'[WHATEVER NAME IS IN B4]'!$E$4:$F$4,0)),"")
how to pass a cell content into a formula as a named range? For instance, I have 3 named range (Budget, Actual, Forecast) and I use the named range in vlookup formulas. But instead of using the named range in the formula directly, I want to refer to a cell where I can type in which named range I want to use. Can this be done? I am attaching a sample spreadsheet to clarify what I mean.
View 6 Replies View RelatedFormula/macro/etc that would enable me to have content of a cell changed based on the content of another cell in the same row.
Example: cell in column D says "PSA" - so I would need the cell in column H for that same row to read "Radio"
I would need an entire sheet scanned to review for these occurrences and make the appropriate changes. I also would need the formula to be inclusive enough to scan for variations in column D cell content (PSA 1, PSA 2, etc).
I have a column (Column B) that contains some free text and I have another column (column K, rows 3 to 12) that contains a series of keywords.
What I would like to be able to do is if column B contains one of the keywords in column K then that keyword is placed in column C.
There will only ever be one keyword per row.
I am in need of a way to pull keywords listed in B2:B10 from text in A2:A10 and then those pulled keywords combined in cell C11.See attached document. So I have colors for keywords in column B and some random text in the column A including the keywords in parenthesis. Is there a way for a formula to find all keywords in A2:A10 and then list them in cell C11 with commas in between.So the result would be one cell C11 showing BLUE,GREEN,BLACK,ORANGE, etc.I have been trying to mess around with index and match and while I could get one to pull up I don't know how to combine it.

I'm evaluating the effectiveness of a keyword list we use to identify certain, high priorit,y medical situations from a string of text.
So, I have a column on a sheet of data (EIS Report!"B:B") in this case, and a seperate column on another sheet with keywords (Keywords!"A2:A47").
I use the formula ={OR(NOT(ISERROR(FIND(keywords!$A$2:$A$47,$B2))))} to identify if any of the keywords exist in the string.
This works well but I would like to improve my work in two ways:
1 - Identfiy, in another column on the EIS report sheet, which keyword it is that's been found within the string,
2 - On the keyword sheet, add another column of words, which if found within the string, would act as an exclusion.For example, I might use "STAB" as a keyword to look for "Male stabbed" etc, however might want to exclude "STABBING" to stop the solution triggering on "STABBING PAINS IN ABDO"
How might i adjust my formula?
When I type a formula into a cell, it disapates into the answer. Eg: I type =100/2 into the cell. When I press enter and go back to the cell, the answer is displayed in the cell and in the formula bar. That is, it looks as if I typed in (hard coded) the cell as 50.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a spreadsheet that uses VB macros to calculate sums of cells based on the font color of the numbers inside. It used to be fairly easy going through each cell and "classifying" them by color, so that my macros can go ahead and sum the numbers in each respective color's cell... but now I have a huge amount of numbers and would like to automate the process somewhat. Here's an example using the A and B columns:
flight $400
hotel $150
hotel $130
meal $20
meal $15
flight $350
I tried using conditional formatting to automatically change the color of the adjacent cells based on the presence of a keyword such as "flight" or "hotel", but this change is only cosmetic, and doesn't actually change the font color (it is still the default black, hence why my color-summing macros won't work!).
I'm including a sample macro for what I use to color-sum my cells, but what I am looking to automate the color-coding process based on looking for keywords as explained above in my example. Here is one of the working color-summing macros (for red, in this case) if you'd like to use it as a reference:
Function SumRed(SelectedCells As Range)
' Adds the values of the cells where the font colour is red(3).
Dim Cell As Object
Dim x As Double

For a table like the one below produced for the sake of example (actual is much much bigger) I want to make it list rows that are true for a certain column for a certain variable in the matrix. So for say water terrain, which types of activity can I do i.e. swimming. Or for Offroad the activites which I can't do i.e. Run and Swim.

I have a problem where I am linking data from two worksheets say: worksheet 1: A1 = 10, A2 = 20 worksheet 2: A1 = =Sheet1!A1, A2 = =Sheet1!A2
I have filled this formula through a certain number of cells on sheet 2 so that if i add more data to sheet1 it will appear in the appropriate place on sheet2. Is it possible to show the formula results in the formula bar, i.e. sheet2: A1=10, A2=20, such that i can used 'Find' or 'Autofilter' on the cell values rather than the formula?
I want to display the formula in the adjacent box to where it is actually used. Would anyone happen to know how to get that done? Example:
If cell A1 contains the following formula: A1+ A2
I want cell A2 to show : '= A1+A2'
I built a formula but I need it to display the cell reference (column letter
& row number), not TRUE or FALSE, of the cell(s) that matches the criterias.
I have provided the formula to demonstrate what I'm trying to do.
=IF(--($F17="B")--($F17="D")--($F17="RS")*AND($M17="no",$O17="no"),"cell
reference")
The cell reference should indicate the cell in column "$F" along with the
row number.
Just yesterday when I opened my excel file, all the cells that contains formulas does not display the results (leaving the cell blank).
For example the formula for cell A1 is =B5. But after putting a value in cell B5, cell A1 is still blank.
Say, the cell's reference is A1, I want the value of the cell to be A1. If I'm in BB12, I want the value of the cell to be BB12

I have a quick question regarding this simple code thats been drviing me nuts. There x distinct pieces of Data in the range speciifed, but when i run this code, the reply posted in cell H1 is 1, instead of x.
Eventually the code will be built to check if the result is odd or even and then add an entry into the first blank cell if the result is odd.
How do I capture a formula from a cell? I want to create a macro that takes each reference (let's say 'B4') and changes it to if(B4=0,0,B4).
View 8 Replies View RelatedI wrote an IF AND formular to display "Yes" for a cell with zero. but when the cell is also empty, it still returns a "Yes" instead of empty.
this is the formular:
=IF(J2=3,"Yes",IF(AND(E2="",I2=0),"Yes","No"))
when I2 = 0 it returns Yes
Also with I2 = "", it still returns "Yes" instead of "No"
I need to conduct keyword searches in excel and color the keywords a different color without changing the font color of the entire cell. now, i found some code from another thread that does this, but i cant seem to get it to work with more than 2 keywords. i need fine-tuning the provided code to do what i need it to do.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find a way to display text that is the product of a concatenate function in a defined cell, but not to have the function itself in that cell. Basically, I want to have the below function in cell A1. I want to add a command to it to take the result and display it in cell A2.
=CONCATENATE(C5,"_",'Attachment 3-A'!C9:E9,"_",IF(C5="","",IF(C6="MPL",IF(VLOOKUP(C5,MPL!B:F,5,FALSE)="Lease","Lease_Contributable",

IF(VLOOKUP(C5,Sale!B:F,5,FALSE)="Assignable","Lease_Assignable","Managed_Non-Assignable"))))
The reason for this is that I need the cell to be selectable (it is generating a file name that needs to be selected and copied), but I don't want the code behind it to be seen. I can't find a way to make the cell selectable AND hide the formula from being seen when the cell is selected. This is because our people keep copying the formula rather than the resulting text.
I was hoping for something like a DISPLAYIN(target) function, but it doesn't seem to exist.
In range B4:M4 some cells contain values and some are blank. I am trying to write a formula that will omit the blank values and just give me the nonblank values. The code below returns the FIRST nonblank value, but I can't seem to figure out how to drag it across a row to get the others. I want to ensure that the numbers stay in the same order (so no largest/smallest formulas), but the blank cell values need to be removed.
This would then need to be repeated for (B5:M5, B6:M6, ETC).
