At work my cells that have formulas just stopped updating when I am working live within the workbook. But if I save the entries I made into the cells exit the program and go back in they update..
View 7 RepliesI’m working on quite huge spreadsheets. The same formula will be used on more than 30 sheets.
So far if I have to change the formula in one cell I have to go to each sheet and change it manually (which is quite boring and time consuming).
I’m wondering if it’s possible to reference all the formulas on the sheet to one sheet (which some kind of a master sheet with all the formulas).
I can copy the formula with the “Past Special” function but the function is not updating if I change the formula on the main sheet.
So is it possible to link it and that it’ll be updated automatically when I’m changing the formula on the main sheet?
I have joined some cells using '&' which is formed a formula. But till I am not pressing f2 button on that cell and then pressing enter key, the formula is not working.
I am attaching test sheet here, If you press F2 Button in cell H2, then press Enter key they only it will show the value of A1.
I just want to know how to automatic update it?
I have a very large data sets that I'm working with in excel 2007 and I have to continually filter and unfilter the data by groups. I want to know if there's a way that I can have the values from my formula update themselves each time I filter/unfilter the data. Suppose I have a table like this:......
Where there are two groups, A and B, and each person has an age, and then the third column we have a ranking. This ranking in third column is computed by sorting the data by age and then by group, and then we set the first entry to 1 and then every other entry has an "if" equation where if the group is the same as the previous column then we add 1 to the ranking, and if not then we set it equal to 1.
Now say that just as a thought experiment we want to only look at females and have the rankings for females. If you do a basic filter and select only show girls what you get is:.............
I have a list of budgets on a summary page. They correspond to a tab name with the budget detail.
I want the formula to automatically pick up the tab name from the list.
How can I use the list from the summary to point to a cell within a budget tab. an example is attached.
I realise some of the formulas on the detail tab need to be sorted but I needed to remove some sensitive work info from it :o) (Dont want to be losing my job)
i am trying to update the name of a worksheet with a formula but cant figure out how to do it.
the formula im using is
"=TEXT(MONTH(TODAY()),""00"")&""08""&TEXT(TODAY(),""YY"")"
basically it needs to return "mm08yy" and insert that as the worksheet name.
i can get it to work for a specific cell by using
Range("A1").FormulaR1C1 = _
but i cant use that when i have Sheet1.Name =
I have a sheet with formula in various cells that are referenced to a sheet that doesnt initially exist. For example one formula on the sheet is: =If( 'WF Tracker 2008'!$D$5=AN$4,INDEX('WF Tracker 2008'!$B$6:$P$10, MATCH($E36,'WF Tracker 2008'!$B$6:$B$10,), MATCH(AN$7,'WF Tracker 2008'!$B$6:$P$6,)),IF(AN26="N/A",AN31,"N/A"))
and initially, sheet 'WF Tracker 2008' doesnt exist so the formulas all produce #ref! values which I expect. My problem is that I Run a macro that creates the sheet 'WF Tracker 2008' but the formula dont want to refresh/update unless I individually go into each cells formula in the formula bar and hit return.
I have some formula's that look at a range of rows
[Code] .....
The trouble is I insert rows to add new data to my sheet, this then changes the formula. $A$9 then becomes $A$10, I don't want this. I want the start of the formula to stay the same. How do I do this?
I wanted to compare data entries between different versions of a protected worksheet. The results of the conditional statement [ if(test, true-result, false-result) ] always came back "0" for both paths. Any suggestion other than copying all of the data to unprotected workbooks and then running the tests?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a userform that populates a list of names. As a name is added in column "D" column "C" updates a reference number using the formula =IF(D2="","",C1+1). I can get the formula to copy to the spread sheet but as a new name is added the formula stays the same. If I enter a name in cell D2 everything is fine but when I make the next entry in row 3 the same formula is entered as if it were text and not as a formula. so I wind up with a column of formulas that all say =IF(D2="","",C1+1) reguardless of what row the formula is in.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have cells (range named Formulas) in a worksheet A (wsA) linking to another workbook. This workbook has several sheets, each a different forecast. From a Radio Button Group on wsA I would like to choose forecast, FC1-FC3, and then all the cells in the range Formulas would be updated with the choosen FC.
I would like a VBA script to handle this:When the workbook is activated the present Forecast in the Radio Button Group should be stored as a variable (oldFC)When I choose a new forecast, the value should be stored in a new variable (newFC)I then want to loop through the whole range (Formulas) and update each cell and it's part of string value to the newFC
Before update:
wsA cell N3='H:[5500-plan-06.xls]FC 3'!N$16
wsA cell N4='H:[5500-plan-06.xls]FC 3'!N$17
When new Forecast is choosen this should be update to:
wsA cell N3='H:[5500-plan-06.xls]FC 1'!N$16
wsA cell N4='H:[5500-plan-06.xls]FC 1'!N$17
In my "example" I have references in Summary!D23:E32 which take data from Input!B36:U36. Is it possible to automatically update these formulae if a row is inserted eg above my row 37? The formula in D23 should then change from =OFFSET(B37,-1,0) to =OFFSET(B38,-1,0) and so on. I would like this to occur wherever I insert a row.
I am using this code, but it inserts rows consecutively from the top only.
Sub InsertVolRow()
Dim iRow As Long, iColumn As Long
On Error Goto Exit_Error
iRow = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(" Total", Range("A:A"), 0)
Rows(iRow).Select
Selection.Insert Shift:=xlDown
iColumn = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match("Total", Range("2:2"), 0)
Cells(iRow - 1, 1).Select
Selection.AutoFill Destination:=Range(Cells(iRow - 1, 1), Cells(iRow, 1)),
I am working on a spreadsheet that matches each cell in Column B (text) with the data (text) in a constant cell; if there is a match, the data that corresponds to the data in Column B (text) will average (Column G, number) using a CSA formula, for example: =AVERAGE(IF($B$3:$B$106=A$110,$G$3:$G$106))
Now the formula above works well, only I have to update the spreadsheet, so when I add new rows the $B$3:$B$106 and $G$3:$G$106 portions are useless.
Trying to use the INDIRECT function that many people successfully use in this forum, produces a #VALUE error,
=AVERAGE(IF(INDIRECT("$B$3:B"&ROW()-4)=A$111,(INDIRECT("$G$3:G"&ROW()-4))))
I have a cell with a fairly long formula for concatenating a large number of other cells. Let's call it cell "A". Due to the formatting and end use of the data in cell "A", I have to copy and only paste the values of that cell into another cell, which I'll call cell "B". What I need to know is whether there is a way for the values in cell "B" to automatically update in the same way they do in cell "A" when data changes in any of the cells that are being concatentated.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using this formula to calculate a column of numbers that are both negative and positive numbers. =SUMPRODUCT(--($A$5:$A$9647<=TODAY()),--($A$5:$A$9647>TODAY()-365),$C$5:$C$9647). I need to keep this formula the same where it will calcuate on a rolling 365 day but I need the total to be only the absolute value (abs).
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm in need of some VBA code to control the updating of information from 16 active workbooks to a master workbook and vise versa. I would like it on command as it slows down the use of the workbooks when they calculate after every change of data as they are being used. These workbooks are connected over a company intranet and are used 24/7.
The desire is that cells in the master workbook will read specific cells on each of the other workbooks and complete a "map display" of the data. The data is not in a column or row range side by side but scattered across the sheet to form a map when data is entered.
I've tried using code to open and close the workbook with on time events but that hasn't worked.
is it possible to have a formula that will update todays date not by 12am but by 6am.
so if i have =now() in cell b1 and my current time is 6:05 am it should give me 21-05-2009 not 20-05-2009
i am trying to get this formula in cell f1.
I'd like to be able to add 10% to column D and have the prices in A, B, C change accordingly. Is there a formula for this?
A B C D
2009 Distributor CASE Price2010 Distributor CASE Price2010 Distributor EACH PriceVariance from 2009 price135.00148.000.0592108.25100.000.040062.8875.006.250066.6096.008.0000
PS: Right now I have it set up working the opposite way, the prices are entered and my formula tells the user by what % the price has changed. The user wants to be able to tell the formula what % is desired and have the prices change accordingly.
The formula I am using for the way column currently calculates is:
=IF((G2=0),"",(((G2-F2)/F2)*1))
I am linking to cells on a spreadsheet and in some cases the formula is showing in the cell and in others the contents of the linked cell. I have forced updating (F9 )and F2 enter with no effect. Is their something i am missing as I want all the links to update automatically. If I copy and paste a working formula into one of these cells it updates albeit with the wrong reference but if i go in and edit F2 etc then it shows as a formula.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen I update the original spredsheet, certain things are calculated and I will have all the results in another sheet. I then copy the sheet and save it as a new file because I need it for later. But, when I update with new info in the original file, even the saved file is changed. Probably because there are so many references in the file to the original sheet. How can I avoid this? I mean, how can I save a file for real without it being updated all the time?
View 2 Replies View Related1. Is there any way a Cell can automatically be updated? for example:
On Citi Bank worksheet, As soon as a deposit matures, I insert another row and enter new fixed deposit data on "Row 13", but then I have to manually change the references on "Row 4" so that it points to the new "Maturity date" and the "Interest" and the "Current balance".
Is there any way I can automatically update Maturity, Interest rate and Current balance as soon as I enter new deposit information.
2. On the "Fixed Deposit Report" worksheet. Is there any way the list of deposits can automatically sort based on the maturity date as soon as I enter the new deposit information?
I have 2 excel files A & B. In cell A1 of file B, I use an index formula to refer to a row in file A. "INDEX('[A.xlsb]A'!$10:$10,1,2)" is the formula used (referring row 10 in file A).
If I update the row number in another cell of file B, is it possible for this formula to refer to that cell to get the row number from file A?
I want have a chart that use Formula result to update automatically. I know there is some vb methods to do this but my job is different and that ways work when values enter manually but i need a way that use formula result to update and don't make chart as long as existing values. I attached a sample of i need and i did explanation on it. The Salesman's are enter to column A by a VB and Their values of cost or earning are enter by a formula.
View 2 Replies View Related I am using the formula below to sum across several worksheets, and the formula I am using works fine, but when I copy the formula across to other cells, I can't figure out how to have it update my cell range:
=SUMPRODUCT(SUMIF(INDIRECT("'"&$A$1:$A$4&"'!A:A"),$B4,INDIRECT("'"&$A$1:$A$4&"'!G:G")))
The range A:A is ok to be static, but I need the G:G to be dynamic so when I drag it to the right it will change from G:G to H:H. I:I, etc.
As you would normally use indirect formulas so the cell references don't change. Which that is what I want in the end, but I need to copy them to an indefinite number of cells first and would like to not do it by hand. I have found some solutions to similar questions/problems but cannot figure out how to make them work for me. So, what I am looking to do is this... (I have also attached the spreadsheet for reference)
I have gotten the information in columns A through F on the first sheet to update as rows are added, moved, deleted on the second sheet using Indirect range. Also, I could do this for Column I (Copmleted Proj. Avg. Terminations) but I would have to do it manually (as I began doing in I3, I4 & I5) but that would be time consuming. So I am hoping there is a way I can copy the formula down the cells are updated for the initial copy but then don't update if the referenced cells are moved or deleted.
What i would like to happen is after inputing a number into say column B have that number update a formula in cell D2.... so for example... lets say i have
B1 = 1000
B2 = 2000
B3 = 1400
B4 = ???
D2 = (B3-B2)/B2
is there a way to make it so when i enter a new number in B4 it will automatically update the formula to display the value for (B4-B3)/B3 and then continue on to repeat this process when i enter values into B5, B6, B7 ect?
I've adapted a spreadsheet to automatically update the latest results.
But my formula (D11), that I got from here, has now stopped working.
I suspect this is due to the formula I've used columns H and I. But I have no solution.
Also the very similar formula used in M15 to M44 has also stopped working, probably for the same reason.
I have a worksheet that has two different years and I am trying to update a summary page that pulls the amount based on the year in the following formula.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a table which takes the average of the last three years. The formulas are in cells below the data. The data is set up to be first data down to the oldest data. each time data is added, a row is put in on top. how do i get the formula in the cell to update dynamically. What would the average formula look like in the cell? Do you just say =average(name of file!RANGENAME).
