Formulas In VBA Instead Of Inside The Cells

Mar 30, 2013

how can I use a formula via VBA instead of putting it in the cell itself? It is causing me problems because when I put a formula in a entire row, all the cells five me the number ZERO, when I want them to stay without any number until I input something in the other row's cell in the same line. I will give an example: I would like that anytime I entry any number in a cell in column A the cell in column C will give me the number in column A times the number in column B (which is a variable daily updated via an internet connection), and when the cell in column A becomes "null" (that is when there is no number in the cell, not even a zero) the cell in column C also becomes null.

When I try to do it using formulas in the cells I always get a ZERO in all the column cause they read a 'null' as a 'zero'. Trying it using VBA I have some success but still have problems. I tried this code

If Target.Column = 3 Then Cells(Target.Row, 8) = Cells(Target.Row, 3) * Worksheets("Sheet4").Range("d32").Value

But it makes the cell in column 8 be static and change only when I click on the cell in column 3. I need it to change automatically when the number in D32 is changed too. As a formula in the cell would do.

is there any way to input a formula via VBA, how?

Variable Usage Inside Formulas

Aug 10, 2007

In a macro I am writing, I am trying to use the data stored in a variable inside a formula. Specifically, my variable holds a string that represents the title of a specific sheet in my workbook. I am trying to put this variable into the count formula to be used as the sheet location.

Excel 2007 :: Using IF / VLOOKUP Formulas INSIDE Data Validation

Sep 6, 2011

What I have attached is spreadsheet I've built to quickly generate an army list for a tabletop game. Anyone can click on the Force Organization Slot (FOS) and choose the type of unit and from there, select the specific unit name attached to that FOS. Each individual unit has a list of options/upgrades currently attached to the sheet from cells AD through AX and the points cost listed next to each upgrade.

For example, when selecting the Rhino unit from the Dedicated_Transport FOS, there should be 4 drop down lists of selectable upgrades (Storm Bolter, Hunter-Killer Missile, Dozer Blade, and Extra Armor). Currently, I have only named the ranges for the Rhino and Razorback units in order to get this working properly without having to go through the entire list of units and change names/create ranges/ect.

What I'm aiming to do is to create an individual drop down list that is directly related to the Unit Name cell in order to populate a complete and selectable upgrade list for each unit. I have played around with some functions that work in the spreadsheet (see cells X10:X12) but do not work properly with Data Validation.

Oddly enough, when I enter this formula under Data Validation:

=IF($A$3<>$AD$1:$AD$182,VLOOKUP(A3,Options,2,FALSE),"")

I do not get an error, yet the drop down list does not allow me to select anything as I thought it would.

Counting Names Inside Cells

Oct 6, 2013

Is there a particular function which will allow me to count particular names inside cells, e.g, in cell A1 there are three names(Ben, Jack, Tom), cell B1 (Jane, Tom, Andy). I'm looking for a formula which will count the number of occurrences of Tom in cells A1 and B1.

Display Charts Inside Cells

I have a list of tasks/rows with completion rate from 1-100%. I would like to display this rate information through individual tiny bar charts linked to each cell value. I managed to do it by formatting and resizing a chart appropriately. However, i don't know how to proceed to copy and paste the chart for all rows without having to edit the data series individually.

Excel 2007 :: Formulas In Cells Not Being Recognized As Formulas?

Jan 10, 2013

I am running Excel 2007 on Windows Vista Business 32 bit. Recently I have noticed that if I enter a formula into an empty, unsused cell, it is recognized as a formula. If I modify that formula, it is then recognized as text and does not work as a formula. The only way I can get the cell to recognize a formula is to delete the cell and start over. This same scenario does not occur on previously stored workbooks. I have checked all of the flags that I know about, including the Options function.

Referencing Multiple Cells From Inside A Single Cell

Dec 31, 2008

I have 4 cells with simple data in them. In another cell, I would like to make a phrase and include all the data from the 4 cells in that phrase.

Example:

="Jackpot: &G2 (&G1) / &G3 = &G4 each"

I already tried this:

="Jackpot: "&G2" ("&G1") / "&G3" = "&G4" each"

Am I missing something? I'm pretty sure this is doable, I just don't know what's missing.

Formula Or Code To Delete Cells If No Text Entered Inside Them

Jul 29, 2013

I am making a buiness card request form, which I have attached. On the Master Sheet (Sheet 1), the user enters in his/her personal data, such as his name address, phone number, etc. After he/she finished entering all the relevant data, Business Card Layout (Sheet 2) automatically populates and shows the user what their business card will look like.

Everything works fine, however I just realized that the contact information might vary from person to person. Right now, a person can enter 5 different contact information, but most of them will probably only choose four.

I wanted to know how to shift the cells down if the user does not fill out one of the contact information.

Create PDF File From Word Doc Inside A Folder With ID And Ref Number From Cells In Excel

Jul 31, 2014

I have an excel database where I register cases. I have in it a button that creates a folder with and ID nr that is in column A (I create new ID nr in the next row, when I press the button it will create a folder with that ID nr and inserts a blank word document in it). We have a template that we copy to the folder (depending what type of case). The idea would be that once the template is filled in and ready to print, It would take the values from the ID nr and a reference number a few cells to the right. Is it possible to tell excel to open the word document in the folder and create a PDF version with the ID nr and reference number. (there are only 2 templates, so the macro would have to look for one of the two in the folder)

The name of the templates are: "Standard" and "Other".

I guess the best way to start maybe this would be that I select the cell with the ID nr and then press a macro button to have this done.

One thing that needs to be done, is to put a copy in the same folder and another in a second folder called "Binder" in my documents folder.

Formatting Cells In Formulas

Jul 25, 2009

I am trying to adjust a simple formula that I am using:

=IF(D3<>"",1,"") **Note this is clunky, but ISBLANK doesn't seem to work due to D3 containing a formula**

to also change the fill color of A3 to "Red" if data exists in D3. Everywhere I look online for the formula reference tries to point me to Conditional Formatting, Which doesnt seem to apply to seperate cells so I can't use this.

SUM Is Returning Zero On Cells That Have Formulas

Oct 31, 2011

I have a column of formulas I'm trying to sum. The SUM function gives me zero.

The formulas are simply pointing to another place in the spreadsheet so the contents of the column look like this:

=D11 (And it displays what's in D11... $1432 etc etc)
=D28
=D30

When I sum those I get Zero. Is there a better way to do this? All cells are formatted as currency

Also... cell D11 is actually a sum of different cells. (As are the rest of them) So I guess what I'm saying is that I'm trying to display the value in cell D11 and D28 and D30 and sum up the total.

Copy Formulas Within Cells?

Jul 1, 2012

Is there a way of coppying formulas down a column but have a cell reference increase by one column for each row?

I have a lot of formulas to create and am hoping there is an easier way of doing it without editing each one

here is an example

first formula in cell D643

Code:
=IFERROR(SUM(C643+VLOOKUP(C147,RePro1,4,FALSE)),"")
next formula in cell D644

Code:
=IFERROR(SUM(C644+VLOOKUP(D147,RePro1,4,FALSE)),"")

Use Sum Product On Cells That Contain Formulas

Mar 19, 2014

I have the current formula to use as a count based on 2 criteria.

=SUMPRODUCT((TEXT(Order!A2:A65535,"m/dd/yy")=TEXT('Order Confirmation'!$L$13,"m/dd/yy"))*(Order!H2:H65535>=1)*(Order!A2:A65535"")*(Order!H2:H65535""))

Column A on my Order sheet is an entered date and L13 is a specific date criteria - this works fine on its own
Column H on my Order sheet is a calculated value (cells contain a formula) - this part does not work

I have tried changing the "*" to "," as I have seen suggested elsewhere but this does not work either. I believe that the SUMPRODUCT function is having trouble with the H column because it contains a formula and not an entered value. How to make this work or another way to accomplish the desired outcome?

HLOOKUP To Work With Cells Containing Formulas

Dec 8, 2013

I have a niggling problem with a worksheet when using Hlookup to return a value from a range of cells it is coming up with blanks when there is data in the range.

There is only ever one row cell containing text in the specified range and i need this to be returned in another column.

The problem with the hlookup formula i am using is that it will not work if cells contain formulas and in the range i am working on all cells contain formulas.

I know this formula works if there is text without a formula in the cell range, as soon as it hits a cell with a formula though it won't work.

I have attached the sheet : Book4.xlsx

From j138 there is one cell with text i wish to be returned in column q for each row. E.g., in q1 the first cell text returned would be khawatim. q2 should contain cantor etc etc.
