Linking Previously Calculated Data - #value! Error
May 30, 2008
In cells A1, A2, and A3 of Sheet1 I have data. This data is the result of some calculation else where in Sheet1. Nevertheless, I would like to link this data to Sheet2 in cells A1, A2, and A3. Now normally, you can't do this. But is their a way around this error message?
i want my userform to operate like this: >each time the user opens the userform, he has to choose from the 1st combo box which AREA will he worked on (e.g., Math, English, History). upon selecting, the AREA chosen will populate the choices in the 2nd combo box (e.g. if Math, 2nd combo box will show: Algebra, Calculus, Trigonometry).
**thru some posts, this part is already solved. thanks. but this will lead me to my questions.
>1st and 2nd combobox selections (e.g., MATH, CALCULUS) serve as a match. Unique from the other matches.
>upon choosing the match, the user can encode in the succeeding textboxes (he would encode numbers). **this is in another Userform Which Saves Data To Two Different Worksheets DATA TO TWO DIFFERENT WORKSHEETS
>my userform has an EDIT command button.
***what VBA codes can i use so that when I click EDIT, the userform will display all the matches that I encoded. If I choose the match from such display, all that i encoded which are related to that match will be reverted to the userform so that i can edit it right at the userform?
I created a custom formula for a pivot table.the existing columns are weekly averages.I made a formula to calculate the average of 5 individual weeks.But when one of the value is blank.Blank cell is considered as zero.and hence the final average is wrong.
I have created a calculated column in PowerPivot and inserted a formula that worked in a normal excel spreadsheet however, this formula does not work in PP anymore.
=find("green",Table1[Name],1)
Name column: NAME: Bag green
it should find "green" in the name and return the position. Hoever it alway returns the error, that the find function could not find the string.I have attached an example spreadsheet.
I enter my formula: =COUNTIF('path[filename]tab'!$AH$11:$AH$300,"yes")
So this formula works fine when I have the other workbook open, but the next day when I open up the file (with the formula in it) and I click "update" button on the "this workbook contains links to other data sources" popup I get a #VALUE! error in the cell. Does anyone know how to correct this?
As soon as I open up the linked workbook the error goes away, but I didn't think this is how its supposed to function. I thought you didn't have to open up any linked documents. All the documents are on my desktop, so its not a share drive issue.
To test it out, I tried doing just a simple link to cell A1 in the other workbook and that works fine, so I'm thinking its the COUNTIF function that causing the problem.
I am currently working with a hidden sheetname "hide_template" which contains formula linking to another sheetname "rawdata" of same workbook.
In this "rawdata", the contents is updated from time to time.
The problem is when I open this workbook and update the entries in "rawdata", the formulas/results in "hide_template" is not updated and invalid (ie. #N/A, #VALUE..)
This is the overview of process that Im working with:
===> open workbook ===> paste new entries on "rawdata" ==> run a macro to copy range in the "hidden_template" to paste to new sheet of same workbook
I already have a working macro to copy range from the "hidden_template" which works as follows:
===> set to visible the "hidden_template" ===> copy range from "hidden_template" ===> paste to new sheet ===> set to hidden the "hidden_template"
An Excel file is e-mailed to my company for all the credit card transactions in a given day. Because we manage many stores and each store is a different legal entity and a different fiscal year ending, I need my macro to sort the information and separate the transaction by store and by fiscal year end. I just hit my first block.
I need to open a workbook off the server to grab information for a vlookup formula. I can get the workbook open, but I can't get back to the original workbook or find a way to reactivate it. Because the macro is going to be saved in the "personal" workbook, I can't use the "thisworkbook.activate" code. Also the workbook name and tab name that is emailed to me will always be different so I can't use other solutions that I've seen posted.
Here is what I think I want to do (however there may be a better way to get to the end result).
Macro 1: Unhide all worksheets however, first list only the worksheets that are visible.
Macro 2: I want to be able to hide all worksheets except those in the above list.
My intent would be to have these in the personal file so I could run either process on any file I have open so I think I would need to insert a tab for the list when unhiding & remove the tab after hiding.
I have found many strings unhiding all & hiding all except a named sheet... but can't find anything on the above?
I have a set of four sheets that each act as a wall planner type of calendar (one for each team of staff) all in one workbook. I have a sheet that acts as a key where cells on the key display different types of holidays e.g. Annual Leave, Unpaid Leave etc. Normally the user would select the cells where they wish to take the time off against their name and go to the "key" sheet, copy relevant cell and go back to their team sheet and paste. I want to put all this into a macro to be used on a customised button on the menu bar.
I am able to do this with one sheet ( I simply put in the code the name of the sheet that I previously selected) but I don't know how with four sheets. How do I say go back to the sheet I previously selected.
I created a nice excel file with some cohort analysis regarding the number of months customers of different cohorts stay with a company. Basically I do a little manipulation on the raw sign-up data sheet and then run a pivot on it.
I want to see the cohorts in two ways: 1. number of customers. 2. $ from customers.
I have the first 1 and I want to get the second one without going through the same procedure again (i.e. manipulating the raw data). In order to get the $ terms, all I need is to multiply a $ column in each row in the columns that indicate the number of months that passed since a customer joined (see the attached example file please). When I try to do it with calculated fields in the pivot table, Excel multiplies the total number of customers with total $ from them all put together, which is of course wrong.
Any way to achieve what I want without having to created another data sheet just for $ terms?
I believe the attached excel file: dummy_for_cohort.xlsx
I have generated a matrix in excel through iteration (I'm trying to calculate a dinamic covariance matrix between 50 values) which looks like this:.......
A 50x50 matrix. What I have generated in each cell is not the formula, but the text of the formula. Somehow Excel has a valid formula in a specific cell, but "doesn't know yet" that within the cell there is no longer a text. So, to make every formula run, I have to go cell by cell pressing F2, then enter, 2.500 times. Notice that in each formula I don't have something like this:
+"+COVAR(Rends!C4:AB4;Rends!C4:AB4)" or '+COVAR(Rends!C4:AB4;Rends!C4:AB4)
but the valid formula: +COVAR(Rends!C4:AB4;Rends!C4:AB4)
Layout: Rows: City, Restaurant, Cashflow Column: Date (Month/Year) DataField: $Amount
"City" might be 7 cities "Restaurant" may be 32 restaurants, some in some cities; but not other "CashFlow" can be either "Revenue" or "Expense"
The layout of the Pivot table is nice, only shows the Rows where a State, Restaurant, and CashFlow entry exists for at least one Date on that row. And there are no extraneous rows for combinations that don't exist.
Now.... the trouble...
I added a Calculated Item, "Profit" which = "Revenue" - "Expenses". Now, every possible combination of State and Restaurant appears in the pivot table displayed. Only the "Profit" (calculated item) is shown for the previously hidden rows; and of course it's "$0.00" since there are no "Revenue" or "Expense" entries.
How can I get the Pivot table to not display the results of a Calculated Item row, when there are no entries otherwise for that row combination?
Is there a way to condition the Calculated Item to not calculate if there are no data entries in the addends for a particular combination?
I have a sheet with about 20000 rows consisting of hundreds of names which occur randomly.After each name is a date of the type 29-Jan-06.The dates are in ascending order.I wish to print in a third column how long it is in days since that name appeared previously in the list,if it never appeared before this will be zero.
I have a simple reporting sheet where the data for orders place is in one sheet and on the other sheet is an imput box for 'date' and it filters through and presents a table of data and two graphs for the date chosen.
I give a daily report (contents of this sheet) but I also need to leave this sheet available for anyone to open and change to another date.
I want to copy the repor sheet into a new one and email but I want the graphs to remain, not go blank when anyone changes the original sheet.
I have a database sheet with a ticket list which has various columns like business area, ticket number, location, status etc. I am creating a new sheet where i want to highlight only the tickets that are in pending status and I dont want all the columns from the main sheet but just a few. How can I link it so its automatic.
I am trying to develop the best way to link two tables in two separate sheets in the same workbook in Excel. One table in the main sheet has a large amount of data in it, and the table in the second sheet collects selective date from the table in the main sheet. This makes it easier for the user to view the more important data from the main table. I developed IF functions which display the data from the main table into the new simplified table. The simplified table takes the data of each row from the main table in row order (row 1, row 2, row 3, etc.). Now the issue I am running against is that when I insert a new row within the main table, the second table does not see the newly inserted row.
Here is an example:
Say that both tables are sychronized upto row 40, and I decide to insert a new row with new data after row 25 in the main table. The simplified table will not see the new row because it is already past row 25, and the next row it will recognize from the main table will be row 41. Is there a way to have a VBA macro link the amount of rows in the two tables and have it so the simplified table will even display the data for the new rows in the main table?
A B C 1Timber$200A-rating 2Metal$500C-rating 3plastic$100B-rating
A1:A3 was input into combo box list. If I select an option in combo box, how can I make B11 and B12 to update data accordingly? (ie, if Metal was selected, B11 should show $500 and B12 should show C-rating)
So I have 2 spreadsheets of Car Inventory Data that I want to export into what will be printed out as Addendum Stickers...basically we're offering a new product with all vehicles and need to update the Sticker Price to reflect the change. The main worksheet with all of the data I'm trying to export is as follows:
Column A: Stock Number Example: (Column, Row A3) T12345
Column B: Model Number Example: (Column, Row B3) 1234A
Column C: VIN Number Example: (Column, Row C3) ABCDEFG12A3456789
Column E: New Product Cost Example: (Column, Row E3) $399
Column F: Model Name Example: (Column, Row G3) Camry ----
Now the price of the new product being added in is the same: $399. All data runs in rows (A3-E3, A4-E4, etc.). I AutoSum'ed each row and output the new calculated price into Column F next to each row of vehicles.

I want to take the Stock Number, Model Number, VIN Number, Retail Price, New Product Price and New Updated Total or Columns A-F and output them into multiple sheets:
I have created a form that pops up when I open a new template. In that form I have inserted a combo box that I want to be able to select data from a separate spreadsheet that is on our server. What code do I need to write to link this data to my combo box. Below is what I have written.
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
'Add list entries to combobox. The value of each 'entry matches the corresponding ListIndex value 'in the combo box.
I'm trying to link specific data from one workbook to another. So from the demo I've attahced, I need all of the 3rd row "ATP BASIC SERVICE : 1" to be linked to another workbook.
So normaly I could copy the row, go to the other workbook, "paste special" and link it to a column.
The only problem is the "ATP BASIC SERVICE : 1" data will not always be on the 3rd row. So i assume I would need to automatically search for "ATP BASIC SERVICE : 1" and if it is found, copy the column over to the other workbook.
I have two cells on Sheet 1 - Cell A1 and Cell A2.
Cell A1 is the first cell that will receive either a number, or nothing. When it receives a number, the number will always contain five digits. (For example: '23456'.)
The contents of Cell A2 depend on the contents of Cell A1 - If Cell A1 contains a five digit number, then Cell A2 will display that same five-digit number with '-1' following it. (In our case: '23456-1'.) If Cell A1 contains no number, then Cell A2 will just be another ordinary cell allowing the user to enter whatever he/she desires.
The extension in Cell A2 should remain editable at all times - if the user wishes to change the '-1' to a '-2', for example, he/she should be able to do so without any error messages appearing. However, the user must not be able to change any of the first five digits in Cell A2 as long as Cell A1 contains data. A message should appear stating that changes to the first five digits should be performed in Cell A1 - which would then change Cell A2 accordingly.
Also, if the contents of Cell A1 are erased for any reason, Cell A2 should keep the five digit number, but lose whatever '-x' extension it contained.
I have had much assistance with this complex (I think it's complex) macro in the past, however, there are still a few bugs that need to be worked out in order for it to be completely efficient. Any help would be really appreciated, and I'll do my best to explain what's going on at this point:
I have a worksheet called the 'Data Entry Page'. You will find it attached. Here are the requirements:
The PO Number cell will only allow ten digits with a dash, and will receive values such as 1200012345-1.
The Part Number cell will receive a value which will usually be six digits long with a dash, and will receive a value such as 654321-1.
The Identification Type cell will receive at least one of the following values, or two or more of the following values separated by '&' (Note the spaces between the digits):
I I I I I I IV IA I IA I I IA IVA
or (some combination examples): IA & I I I I I & I I IA I VA & I IA
I am creating a Payroll Database. It is nearly complete except for the federal and state withholding tax data. I want my db to look up the data which I have saved in an excel workbook. I need the lookup to be for marital status and # of exemptions. There are a total of two variables for each table. 1. How much the gross pay is (ex. between $175-185) and # of exemptions (ex. 3 exemptions).
I'm using MS Excel 2003 Pro. I need to link data from one source worksheet to a target worksheet in the same workbook when only one variable changes in the source worksheet e.g.:
A. From source worksheet:
When the data under the "Expected Date" column is set (it normally is blank)
B. Populate target worksheet with:
1. Name 2.aaaa 3.bbbb 4.cccc 5.dddd 6. expected date (the actual date that is set from the source worksheet)
