I would like to make an excel worksheet that can do the following:
At the beginning of the worksheet I have a reference block w/ 2 rows, 4 columns of number of 1-8 (randomly, input manually). Then, I would have the same block (i will call these member blocks)(2r, 4c) repeatedly vertically (maybe 10~12 times etc...) and these block will have 2 rows in between to seperate each other.
Then, right on top of each of the member block (the row above the member block) there will be input space where i will manually input numbers (4 at most ~ also 1-8). Each of the number i manually put in will place into member block with its location reference to the reference block at the beginning. (and each number will be highlighted in one color, so 4 colors are needed.) Finally there will be several of these on a page. attached is a sample of what i kinda want but they are all input manually.
I have a column of data that is blank-delimited into five blocks. The size of each block will vary, since the data comes from a web query. A blank (empty) cell tells me where a block ends and the next one begins.
I would like to set up five dynamic names (e.g. Block_1, Block_2 and so on), each of which will reference the corresponding segment of data.
What would be an elegant way of defining the dynamic names?
- a list of data - a pivottable based on these data
When moving this worksheet this worksheet to another workbook, the pivot table can't refresh anymore. This throws an error message "Reference is not valid". To work around this problem I need to adapt the datasource. The same occurs if the list and the pivot table are on separate sheet, with the added strange behaviour that, when data an PT are split, it is not possible to move both sheet together.
This would not be a big issue if my problem had to be solved manually. The real problem is that I need to move the sheets from a C# program.
In sheet 3 they are combined via reference in order for me to do calculation in the input - They are combined in sheet3 as the columns are not identical.
Because the data-tables will be updated via sharepoint, i have to link to cells beneath the data-tables as i expect these will be fill out when the tables update.
My problem is that when the tables update, i dont see the updates in my "combination" sheet. it appears the the data tables add a new line, which moves my cell reference 1 line down.
Ex: Had a reference in Sheet1'E3 - after the data table updates the reference is now Sheet1'E4.
I am trying to find out how to set a formula that allows me to price point. Our marketing department want all product prices to be either to the value of 6 or 9
I want to reference a table (not a pivot table) from another Excel file. I want it to update automatically if the original table is changed in any way.
I am trying to reference a date in a formula that points to a sheet name.
See Below.
A B November 11, 2005 ='11-11-05'!$v$35
How can I automate the date to pull from column A and place that value in the date for column B? Column B is the name of a different sheet in the workbook.
I would like to know if you can point (lots of ) cells to use a formula specified once somewhere else. The problem I have is 6 large formulas duplicated down 6 columns for 7000 rows. This, it turns out has made my file size huge ! Instead of duplicated the formula, can I tell all the cells to use *this* formula, but remembering to increment the references within...
I created the following macro by recording the macro and going through the steps manually, however I need to make some changes and can't seem to accomplish what I'm trying to do.
The Macro opens a master inventory file, creates a new line, and then links certain column cells in the inventory to corresponding places within the original form (the macro is executed from the original form once it's completed).
Problem is, the macro is written using the form "template" so whenever I save the template as the name of the unique item, it won't update the macro language as well.
What I'm trying to accomplish is when someone opens the template, the save immediately with a different file name, and once the form is completed and the macro is run, it's creating the new line in the inventory pointing to that specific file.
I thought somehow utilizing ThisWorkbook within the macro instead of explicitly using something like
"='[Control Sheets (JOHN TEST).xls]FUND SET_UP PG_1'!R2C3" would accomplish what I'm trying to do.
I've been using the vlookup and hlookup functions for a while, but am not an expert and I've come across this scenario. with one of my larger sheets (a few hundred lines and a dozen or so columns - I know, too much info for a spreadsheet but coworkers are used to them) if there was a way to combine the hlookup and vlookup functions to find a specific value if I give it the vertical axis value as well as the horizontal axis value. Is it possible to combine these two or perhaps another way to find the value if the column and row are specified? Just to clarify, there is no repetition of rows or columns.
First as said in title i have no idea what these kind of tables is called in English and i didnt know how to formulate me when it came to the title (so hint me with a "right" name for this kind of table)
To the point i have alot of these cross reference tables. What i mean is table that have a horizontal titelbar (row) and a vertical titlebar (column) and in the table you have the diffrent stats or whatever that can be within it. Im having a really hard time expaining this so im just uploading a excel file with a little explanation of what im after.
The spread sheet I work with will not post info on the second sheet automatically. So I'm in the process of trying to figure that out. The second page is basically giving a percentage of parts the person did compared to what another company would pay that person per hour to do at 7.42 an hour. I need the second page to take all the info on the first page and figure out the %. What it does to get it is, adds the numbers and divides by the total to get average and then compares it to 7.42 and hour.
Also, if i could get the Name boxes to be auto filled with the file name? that possible? IE, John smith is the name of the file and it would auto fill that into all the name boxes on the sheets. And could i get the date to auto fill it self from the first date box? I included two files, one is a blank sheet and the other is a sample of the data entered and what i want it to look like.
I know how to turn a column reference in a structured data table into an absolute reference:
=Table1[A] becomes =Table1[[A]:[A]]
However, how to make a cell reference, like this one, absolute to that it still locks on this row, column A when I drag it across. I don't want to use copy & paste, as I have other cell references that i need to leave dynamic.
=Table1[[#This Row],[A]]
I've seen that @ can lock rows, but I don't seem to be able to lock an individual cell.
I have been searching for this but have been unable to find an answer. Lets assume I create 2 tables. In the second table, I want to reference a specific cell from the first table in a formula (so that when I sort the column with that specific cell in the first table, the reference in the 2nd table will still work correctly and not change). How would I go about doing this?
I'm trying to take data from multiple worksheets and copy them into a summary sheet in the same workbook, and then make a pivot table from the summary sheet.
I got the first part done, but I can't figure out how to make the pivot table to incorporate new data in the summary sheet as new worksheets/data is added.
I have a worksheet that uses a lot of vlookups and I have to update the filenames and locations quite often. I would like to update a single cell rather than updating every single formula.
However I am getting the #VALUE error when trying this.
Simplified Example: I have: =VLOOKUP(A3,[Table.xls]Sheet1!$A$1:$B$4,2,FALSE) I would like to place [Table.xls]Sheet1!$A$1:$B$4 into a cell (D1) for example.
And have my vlookup function as =VLOOKUP(A3,$D$1,2,FALSE) This way I only have to update D1 when I want to change the filename instead of a whole lot of functions.
I am trying to run a quick format on a table that includes adding a Vlookup formula. The formula references a table that comes out of a pivot table, so it has a different name every time. If I look up the new generated table name, and change it below it works. Is there a way to capture the table name and insert it into the formula? Or possibly rename the table to the same thing everytime (which I think is going to cause some conflict).
I have a pivot Table with region & product wise as shown in the enclosed file. While calculating % of each item in region it is referring to grand total or total of column. Is there any way how to get this % calculated in regard of subtotal region.
I have two fields where users enter a security identifier (cell P1) and the declaration date (cell P2) and i'd like to be able to pull all the records from the master table (A1:K10) where the security id matches (column H) and the request date (column C) is <= the declaration date (i've attached a sample file for your reference). I tried using a pivot table but it doesn't let me filter for "less than or equal to" values for the request date.
I'm trying to get the vlookup to return the value "2"
Right now, I'm manually entering the tab name in the vlookup function, even though it's contained in cell B1.
The tabs are contained in the same workbook if that matters. Since this workbook is growing rather quickly, this is a painful process and doesn't feel very scalable. Since I'm using a mac, I need to do this with functions vs. macros. Does anybody know how I can reference a cell for the name of a tab in the vlookup function?
I was thinking I could maybe somehow do this with the INDIRECT function but I'm stumped.
I have made a pivot table which I use each month by just updating the source data, however I was trying to have a cell in another workbook say "=A31" but it keeps going "=getpivotdata(...specific name".
My usual practice was to copy the top ten rows of my pivot table into another file but I am trying to erase this step.
I have a workbook that reports data on a daily basis within a month. I receive data daily from a different workbook and import the data for the day in its correct worksheet which has functions that automatically calculate everything I need, which then gets collected from a central worksheet which accumulates the "Total".
However, I have recently added 2 new pivot tables to my analysis, and apparently when i copy/paste the pivot tables to each new sheet, the data source is references the original sheet where the pivot tables come from.
I tried doing a dynamic name range, and that states the worksheet name in its reference as well.
How can I make a Pivot Table, gather the information from the same range $A$1:$J$5000, but only for the sheet in which the Pivot Table lies.
The sheets are labeled by the day of the month.
So, data for February 1, 2009 is worksheet "1" February 14, 2009 is "14"
I want to be able to reference cells in a table by using two drop down lists. One drop down for the columns in the table and another drop down for the rows in the table. The values in the columns will be different metal materials (aluminum, copper, stainless steel, etc.). The values in the rows will be thicknesses of those materials (1/16", 1/8", 1/4",3/16",3/8",1/2",3/4",1"). I already created a drop down list for the materials and another for the thicknesses. But now I want to be able to select a particular material and then a particular thickness and receive back in another cell a value that's cross referenced in a table. Specifically, the values in the table will be the weight of the particular material and thickness per square foot. I'll populate all of the cells in the reference table manually. I'll hide the table on a separate worksheet. i haven't created the table yet.
