Referencing Blank Cells
Jun 8, 2009
I would like a formula that checks for blank cells only between C1:C10 and E1:E10 and then insert the first and last names of the person associated with these blank cells (which are located in A1:10 and B1:B10) on another worksheet, which for the sake of argument can be called 'sheet2'.

I have sporadic cell values in a column. I will be describing the lamen logic I use to fill in these blanks manually. Find the first nonblank cell in the column, then look for the next nonblank cell in the column. I count the number of blank cells in between. If even # of blank cells, then I give the first half of the blanks the value of the first nonblank cell and the second half of the blank cells the value of the next nonblanck. If odd # of blank cells, then I do the same with the exception that the odd cell that falls in the middle will be randomly designated the value of the either first or second nonblank cell.

Say I have a column with cell values 4, 0, 0, 5, 0 , 0, 0, 2, 0, 3
What I am trying to do is have in the next column a formula which returns
the number adjacent to it multiplied by the number of blanks between it and
the next non-blank cell.
So, for the example above, the output would be 8, 0, 0, 15, 0, 0, 0, 2 etc

Suppose I have a cell containing the formula:
Code:
=INDIRECT("'"&B$3&"'!J"&ROW($J11))
Which pulls data in from another sheet in the workbook. If the referenced cell is empty, this has value 0.
I'd like to then include this cell in the calculation of an average, ignoring it if the cell it pulls from is empty but including it if that cell contains 0.

How do I get 'SUMIF' to ignore blank cells? sumif(a1:a10,h1,b1:b10) - then fill down
a= ID number
h1 = ID number
b= cost info
eg 'matt' in 'h' is finding 'matt' in 'a' and reporting on the cost info against that name in 'b', but in the middle of the list a blank is matching a blank and returning a subtotal which is in the cost column. I want to put sumif(a1:a10<>"",h1, b1:b10) but this doesnt work!

On the spreadsheet Im creating I am using cell referencing. The user will input data into the blank cells, and cell referencing will put them into another table. Then I add these using an IF(OR(ISBLANK formula.
However, the empty cells come through as 0's rather than a blank cell. As they're coming through as 0's, they're being calculated into the formula, and this is causing problems in my main table.
Is there a formula I can use to ensure that the empty cells being copied over do not give off any other value?
I tried to use a few different IF formulas to only let specific data go through, but it didn't work. I tried to have the blank cells produce a letter so that they wouldn't be calculted in the formula, but letters are also counted as measured values.

My workbook is for financial planning but I'm attempting to streamline an input page (name, birthdate, etc) that will be referenced throughout the entire workbook to trigger automatic calculations (present value, education calculations, etc).
The cell in the input page is a birthdate - which when populated will trigger a cell on a different worksheet to calculate the respective age using this formula:
Code:
=IF(MONTH(TODAY())>MONTH('Input Page'!B30),YEAR(TODAY())-YEAR('Input Page'!B30), IF(AND(MONTH(TODAY())=MONTH('Input Page'!B30),DAY(TODAY())>=DAY('Input Page'!B30)),
YEAR(TODAY())-YEAR('Input Page'!B30),(YEAR(TODAY())-YEAR('Input Page'!B30))-1))
The problem is if there is nothing written in the birthdate cell then the age cell will automatically calculate 114 (reference photo below). Ideally I'd like that cell to be blank if nothing is in the birthdate cell on the input worksheet. I'm assuming since I'm using an IF formula to calculate the age already then I'll need to use a macro to to an "ignore".

I am trying to write a macro which highlights all the cells with any reference to other cell. The macro should highlight a cell with formula like = 3 * A25 but not highlight a cell with following formula. = 3 * 0.4535566. 'Hasformula' property is not useful here as it can't distinguish between above examples.

Ok so my named range looks like this:
[Code]....
However, I want to ignore the "" cells and the truly blank cells... However, I think all of them will have "" since I have this formula in all of the ones I'm putting in the range:
[Code]....
How do I go about getting these results into a named range so I can use it on validation since validation only seems to ignore truly blank cells and not the "" ones.

I have a long list of amounts one per day. Sun-Sat repeating. I Total the amounts for each week and place it next to Sun. now i have the total for that billing week.
I need to reference these numbers from a different sheet that only has one row per week. I tried to do ='sheet1'!a2 then next row down ='sheet1'!a9 and ='sheet1'!a16 etc then fill down but when i do it seems to start again and do a3, a10 and a17.
Is there a way I can get it to only use cells with figures in them? IE if cell is empty then move down one else use the amount in cell... or how do I get it to reference 7 cells below each time rather than the next immediate cell.

For example in this formula I typed in WWW as the max:
=SUMPRODUCT(($F$5:$WWW$5>=C2)*1,($F$5:$WWW$5<=C3)*1,ABS($F$6:$WWW$6))
If I try to type in a value higher than WWW it will give me an error. I was just trying to put in an amount that I would never hit within the row.

I need assistance referencing cells in other sheets. I have a summary tab which I would have each refenced sheet listed (named for the activity being billed). In a separate cell in the summary tab, I want to bring back the value of the total amount billed for that activity. The total value is in the same cell of each sheet, as all invoice tabs needing to be referenced are identical in layout.
There is one hitch to this, the sheets referenced have not yet been created (that would be too too easy), and the activity list in the summary sheet has place holder names that will change when the activity being billed is defined (hence prompting the biller to create the sheet to be referenced).

My current worksheet is being built for use in Eve-Online, a game I play. In specific, I am keeping track of profit made by manufacturing different items in the game. I am trying to build it like this:
Column 20 is a list of items, and the next 7 cells to the right of each item contain the mineral requirements for that item. So C20 says Bantam Frigate, C21-C28 will all contain numbers. Now, I am trying to create a function in the upper-right cells (like A1-A8) where if I type in "Bantam Frigate" into A1, A2-A8 will fetch the numbers that I put into C21-C28.
Now, I will be working with thousands of items, so I have to make sure I name both the 'database' and the query exactly right, but that's not a problem to me. Can I make something that will reference a value from (cell+1 column right) or (cell+2 columns right)

I have a row of cells on one "Sheet1." I am trying reference these cells into a column on "Sheet2." I know I can reference one cell at a time, but I have a large number of cells in the row on Sheet1 and I know that there has to be an easier way to do it, I am just not excel-savvy enough to know what it is.
I know you can copy and "paste special" (transpose), I am just wondering how to do that while referencing. I have heard that the "offset" function can be used, but after extensive trial and error, I haven't figured it out.

I have set up a spreadsheet in order to track and calculate the number of students we teach at our organization. It is running prohibitively slow when entering new data. On one sheet each individual session is entered (the school, program, date, number of hours etc.) This is the Session worksheet.
On the next sheet(the Program worksheet) the maximum number of students for each unique program (this is usually a combination of school and the program) is calculated to ensure we are not counting students we teach weekly as new students. This is calculated using a formula:
:{=MAX(IF(Session!G:G=Program!A2,Session!D:D))}.
"Session!G:G" = the unique program name on the Session worksheet.
"Program!A2" = the unique program name on the Program worksheet.
"Session!D:D" = the number of students in that individual session...........

Should I use the 'IF' or 'LOOKUP' functions to fill a cell based on the content of another?
If C2 contains 'Cork' I need D2 to read 'Munster'. Indeed I will need D2 to read 'Munster' for a number of different C2 values.

I currently have 3 sheets 1, 2,and 3.
Data is input onto sheet 1, this is copied into sheets 2, no real problem there. However i need to enter data onto sheet 3 and if that data appears on sheet 2 i want the line, not just the cell to be coloured on sheet 2. The data on sheet 3 will not be in any specific order in the column
I have tried conditional formatting but keep getting a message to say it cant be done and offering a formula which i dont understand.

I'm trying to simply reference a cell from another tab in the same workbook. In other words I press "=" and then point to the cell in another tab and I would expect to see that value - however I don't. What I see, as an example, is: ='Nav&SPDiary'!B24 instead of the cell value (which I know exists because I've just pointed to it.
Anyone have ANY idea why all of a sudden it's started to do this? The most annoying thing is it worked fine before and now it doesn't do what I want...

I can't modify my formula to leave blank cells blank when dragging it down, Also, I've got two formulas that i need to combine. Please view the comments I've put in cells E4, F2,F3,H2 and I2 to understand clearly what am seeking. See the attached worksheet.

I can count the blank cells withiin a range using
=COUNTBLANK(C6:AD2506)
But I dont want it to count the cells if the entire row, within that cell, i.e. C6:AD6, is blank.
It should only count the blank cells within a row if there has been some data entered on that row..provided it has been entered within the specified range.

I presume this is fairly simple to do, since it's certainly easy enough to do manually by filling in a couple of rows and dragging them down, but I need it to be performed in a macro that I can run before other macros run.
What I need specifically is for the macro to go to G1 and insert the number .01... Then go to G2 and insert .02... Then G3 and insert .03... And repeat this until it finds the first non-blank cell ( row number this occurs at varies), at which point it ends and does nothing to that populated cell or any other cell in the column thereafter (including other blanks farther down).
This all needs to be done in Arial, 10pt, white.

Here's what I'm attempting to do: For each column, X,Y, Z, I am attempting
to count nonblanks. However, the data was imported from Access and Oracle,
and Excel treats what appear to be blank cells as nonblanks. I've tested
this theory by highlighting a couple of "blank" cells and deleting them, and
my count changes. So, can I get Excel to put a value into my "blank" cells,
so then I could filter it out, or create a formula that would only count
dates in my columns (which is what I'm after).
This is what I'm looking at:
A B C
1 2/4/2006 2/6/2006 ("blank")
2 ("blank") 12/13/2005 1/7/2006
3 2/20/2006 1/15/2006 ("blank")
In each column if I use a COUNTA I'll get a total of 3, instead of 2 for A,
3 for B and 1 for C.

I have a list that looks something like this:
Column B
Row 4 Item 1
Row 5 Item 2
Row 6
Row 7
Row 8 Item 3
Row 9
Row 10 Item 4
Row 11
Row 12
Row 13
Row 14 Item 5
The range of cells in column B containing the items has a name "ColStreams"
I need to go through the list, filling in each blank cells with the value contained in the first non-blank cell above it - so, in this case, rows 6 and 7 would contain "Item 2", row 9 would contain "Item 3", rows 11-13 would contain "Item 4" and so on.

I'm trying to reference text from one worksheet to another. The data is all in column A on the "Template" worksheet, however the row varies (ie starts at row 5, then 7 the 9 etc). The cell row is always +2 rows on the previous row, and column A.
What can I use to pull across the cells with the information that I want, onto the "Report" worksheet?

Applying my indirect formula to the rest of the cells in my sheet properly.
I am getting the values of cells in other sheets, using INDIRECT to use cell values to name the sheets. Here is an example of how the cells are now...
A
B
1
Sheet 1
=(INDIRECT("'"&A1&"'!$A$5"))
[Code] ....
The formulas in B1 are going to return the value of A5 in "Sheet 1" (or whatever value is in A1) and B2 will return the vale cell A5 in 'Sheet 2. The next line will be the value of A6 in Sheet 1, and the next will be A6 in Sheet 2 and so on.
So I have quite a few rows to get through I want to be able to autofill so it looks like this...
A
B
1
Sheet 1
=(INDIRECT("'"&A1&"'!$A$5"))
2
Sheet 2
=(INDIRECT("'"&A2&"'!$A$5"))
[Code] ......
As it is now, when I autofill, it autofills the Sheet name part of it. It is looking like this...
A
B
1
Sheet 1
=(INDIRECT("'"&A1&"'!$A$5"))
[Code] ......
Excel isn't intuitive enough to know I want to move cells in the referenced sheet.

I have a workbook that has a number of sheets with various project stages and dates on them. These details are arranged in small tables displayed vertically down the page. Each worksheet's name is the project code - e.g. 30033_99
I have now been asked to create an overview page that displays all these stages and dates on one page. What I'm trying to do is get Excel to look at the column with the project code and then pull information from the worksheet with that name.

I am trying to find a way to create new sheets in a workbook that when created will reference a new row on a data sheet in that workbook. Each workbook could end up containing varying numbers of sheets (anywhere from 2 to 150+) based on size limitations. There are some lookups and referenced data on each sheet that would be copied as is and not reference the data sheet. I have not included these in my example.
I'm trying to avoid having to change each cell's reference manually for all of these sheets (which is one of the solutions I've come up with so far). My current method of creating these workbooks does not involve the data sheet and each workbook starts off with data only on sheet1. I select and copy that sheet into sheet2 and every subsequent sheet. I want to incorporate the data sheet so it can be filled out by someone else and copied into that tab to populate all of the data sheets.

I've tried to a create code from examples in previous posts but I can't seem to figure out how to get what it is that I'm looking for.
I'm trying to reference the value in cell O9 which would be a number.
Preceding this value, I would like to have the word "Rev" displayed. Just underneath those values, I would like to reference the value in O7 which is a date (3/27/2014 for example). I would like the footer to be updated anytime that cells O9 or O7 are updated.
These values would be placed in the right side of the footer of the active worksheet, and be displayed on each page that is printed out.
It's not much, but here's what I have so far:

I'm using two comboboxes to simplify data query of a database: the first narrows the query by displaying employee names, the second narrowing the selection further by displaying the equipment that employee owns. I am able to populate both comboboxes fine.
The first combo box for employee names:
Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("User&EquipOverview")
[Code]....
Where I am running into trouble is that I want the selection made with the equipment name combobox (ComboDevice) to populate several textboxes with values related to that specific selection in the database. That is, the combobox population needs to have the cell location included as information to pull the correct information.
Each employee has several pieces of similarly named equipment, so it's not so easy as to search the initial list for the value of the combobox selection.
