If coded correctly, there are various Excel functions & tricks for creating a formula to send someone on a wild goose chase through many worksheets and cells before finding the final cell that contains the final value. I was able to use =Cell("address",...) function to cut through the many paths and retrieve the address of the final cell. Is there a VBA trick for doing this to the active cell? I would like to be able to run a small VBA routine that would trace back the fomula of the active cell and return the final cell's worksheet and cell address.
If I have 12 sheets in a workbook (Jan, Feb,etc..) can I have those names in specific cells (A1,B1,etc..) and call them out in a formula as the cell name as opposed to the actual name?
I have one worksheet in my job named "Tudo" and there I have about 100 rules and the name of employees that need to follow these rules. What I need is the worksheet named "Nomes com Regras" show me in each name which rules is for each person.
What I am trying to do is, check if the value of c2 in update is the different to the value of c2 in original then run a code (for the moment just says msgbox so I know it works).
I am using an event macro to trigger a set of calculations. In the spreadsheet, users have a choice of 3 input cells to work out an answer; these 3 cells work out the same cost from different angles depending on the variables available to the user.
Users only ever need to fill in one of the three cells to work out the answer as the event macro I designed, should (upon input by the user), work out the remaining two input cells using logical arguments.
The macro and calculation work fine, except in the event of users amending a value in an input cell previously updated; in other words, if all 3 cells contain a value and 1 of them is being changed by a user.
The issue: I need the event macro to recognise the location of the last change made by the user in order to determine which 2 of the 3 cells need to recalculate. However, users will invariably press enter or tab etc... upon making changes and this has caused me issues so far.
What I have tried already:
1) running another event macro "on selection change" to record elsewhere in the model all cell selections as and when the user interacts with the model
EFFECT: it made the "on change" event macro very slow and clunky; so I need to avoid 2) declaring a range as set r = activecell.address
EFFECT: this did not work as the active cell's address would in fact be the address on the last cell; e.g. the one selected further to pressing enter (often the one directly below the cell recently changed)
A solution to add to the existing "on change" event macro that identifies the last edited cell
I'm after a formula or some formatting trick to split up the address in the attached sheet. As you can see, the addresses have come through from a database in one cell, instead of a separate cells for the street line and the suburb line, making it difficult to merge for mailing.
eg. the address are coming through to the merge like this;
I am trying to take an address book on the internet and copy/paste it into excel- not hard right? Ok, so that is done. The problem I have is that there are over 2000 addresses- and they all copy straight down into one column. I know how to transpose the information- but come on- there are over 2000. that seems like a LOT of work. So my first question would be is there a way to do this all at once? For each company/name/address/phone I need one row per company.
I have a master sheet named "Summary" and a number of following identically formatted sheets with lots of different names. I intend to pick out information from cell F7 of each of the following sheets and make the information show on the summary page. On the summary sheet in column A is the name of all the following sheets (spelt correctly), and in columns B, C and D are the spaces for the information I need on the summary sheet.
I need to set up a formula across columns B, C and D that I can copy down, which picks out the name of the sheet from column A and the cell reference within that sheet. So far I have experimented with formulae similar to the below which all keep returning with #REF! I hasten to add that all the Sheets are named and spelt correctly: =INDIRECT("'"&$A1"'!",$F$7)
The F7 would be changed for other cells in columns C and D, and so when I copied this down through all the following sheets on the summary page it should give me hte right results...
I have two Sheets, first is Service Data, the second is Log Sheet. In the Service Data sheet I have a column of serial numbers in column A. I also have a column of serial numbers in the Log Sheet, column A.
I'm looking for a conditional format whereas I enter numbers into column A on the Log sheet it will auto highlight the cell if I duplicate a serial number from row A in the Service Data sheet. I would like it to highlight the Duplicated number on the Log sheet. I know new versions of excel make it easier to do this but unfortunately I have Excel 2003.
I have 2 workbooks in Excel 2010, each contain just 1 sheet. (see attached) I need to compare on sheet 1, cell D1 and column A:A (this column will be much longer), with the data in columns C:C & A:A on sheet 2, if a corresponding match is found, the data contained in column D on the same row on sheet 2 is written to the cell with the matching data in sheet 1.
I have workbook that has several sheets within the workbook that are set up identical. Each of the sheets in the workbook are for a specific company.
As of right now I have been adding a sheet to the workbook that is an overview for what is in each sheet (the individual companies). Currently I am doing the formatting of the heading and column names manually and I pull the data from each sheet with a VLookup. I have been trying to enhance my VBA skills with coding something that will fill in the appropriate cells from worksheet to worksheet.
What I am trying to do is to populate an overview sheet with cells C24, C25, and B36 being static on each row per sheet. Then each row will be populated with cells C(36, 59, 70, 81), D(36, 59, 70, 81), F(36, 59, 70, 81), G, and H(36, 59, 70, 81). The overview sheet will have the diagram below in a ru
I was wondering if there was any way to do a cell format so that if I type in a word in sheet1 say "mike" on sheet2 the word "mike" cell would be highlighted? or if there is a formula you could use to do that.
i have a workbook that has a lot of sheets but i need to pull information from the one sheet "Veneer Log" i Need it to make new sheets with the same heading as on the "Veneer Log" (Rows 1 & 2) Sheet but it needs to be filtered by the "Product" Column (H) with a new sheet made for all the diffrent products i.e. Dimensional, Drywall, Corners - Thin V., Accents,..... so each product will have a new sheet with i am hoping someone can help me with this. This log changes Daily and it would be nice to have a sheet with only the same product on it to compare new orders so we can batch run. i hope i have given you enough information so someone can help me with this. i have attached a sample log the real log has about 10 worksheet for diffrent departments but i only need info from the Veneer Log Sheet.
If I have a cell that has as its contents as sheet name, is there anyway I can use the cell's address to reference that sheet?
As an example, say I have in Sheet1, cell A1, the text Sheet2. And let's say I want to return the value of cell B2 on whichever sheet the text of A1 says. So, on Sheet1, I might have this:
I would like a macro that will go to a fixed sheet, copy the format, go back to the previous sheet and paste the format. My problems arise going back to the previously activated sheet rather than just a fixed sheet.
I have a workbook with a hidden sheet ("Template") and a visible sheet("New Job"). I need code so when cell F1 in "New Job" is populated:
1-the sheet is renamed to the value of F1, 2-a new tab is made (a carbon copy of the hidden sheet "Template") 3-the new tab is named "New Tab" and marked as unhidden.
Public Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) ActiveSheet.Name = Range("F1").Value End Sub
Function WorksheetExists(SheetName As String, _ Optional WhichBook As Workbook) As Boolean Dim WB As Workbook Set WB = IIf(WhichBook Is Nothing, ThisWorkbook, WhichBook) On Error Resume Next WorksheetExists = CBool(Len(WB.Worksheets(SheetName).Name) > 0) End Function..................
I want to do a loop where you can copy say A3 worksheet 1 then add another sheet naming the work sheet "A3" then copying A3 worksheet 1 to A1 "A3". After that looping to A4 to a new work sheet naming the work sheet "A4"copying the value to A1 "A4", etc...
Is there a simply way of doing this loop? I can probably fit my other coding into the structure.
I want to populate "selections" sheet with data from the previous sheet (it will be the date) depending on the value of a cell in column G. You will see I have already got the data from 27th April into my selections sheet but wondered if it can be done by a formula to save me copy and paste time?
Ok so i have 2 sheets. Sheet 2 is a form that needs to be printed.sheet one will have data pasted into it by the user. The data will be placed in column a and b. If a has data in it then so will b. Now I need the macro to identify if data is in a then the macro needs to then copy a and paste special into A18 on sheet2 then copy b and paste into A6 on sheet2 then print sheet2. Repeat this process to every row as long as A has data in it.
I have Worksheet 1, with columns A to E. I would like a row to be copied to Worksheet 2, as soon as cell F in Worksheet 1 is populated. Also the row to be deleted from Worksheet 1.
So, as soon as F1 in worksheet 1 is populated and enter button pressed, row A1:F1 will be copied to the next empty row in worksheet 2, while being deleted from worksheet 1. So eventually all rows in worksheet 1 will be deleted and rows in worksheet 2 will be populated.
Sheet 1 is my main page containing all my data, full of formulas and is protected. Sheet 2 is a simple sorting page with no color and is simply for sorting and printing.
Sheet 2 has IF formulas refrencing rows and cells on Sheet 1.
Example Sheet 1 A2= Bob
Sheet 2 A2="" until I put in this formula:
=IF(Sheet 1!A2="","",Sheet 1!A2)
Now Sheet 2 A2= Bob
Simple...
But when I delete a row in Sheet 1 (using my cool new macro...long story)
I get #REF! in the cells on my sorting sheet, as I should I guess, because there is no more row there to reference. It's annoying, but what do I do to fix it without just unchecking the #REF! in autofilter on Sheet 2.
I just want to eliminate #REF!
Do I need to put something else in the IF formula?
In Sheet2 I have a list of cell addresses showing values such as D5, D32, D59, D221, D869 stored in cells AB7:AB16. In Sheet1 the "D" column holds dates. I want to return the corresponding date for each D# cell into Sheet2 in column AC7:AC16. I'm unaware of the proper syntax for this. I though it would look something like:
I have a workbook that uses the following for a list of names (in a specific cell) over multiple sheets:
Burns, Charles; Simpson, Bart; Smithers, Waylon; Wiggum, Ralph
Some names appear on different sheets. I would like to create a TOC sheet that lists what sheet each name shows up on. I can pull the names and have a list of all of them, but how to
a.) determine all of the sheets where each name shows up and, subsequently, b.) how to programmatically create a hyperlink to whatever sheet(s) each name shows up on.
I've attached a dummy workbook. The column in question is Content Owners. There would be a link to each separate sheet in different cells adjacent to the name.
Clients come to the shop and can ask to receive body massage, foot massage or herbs massage for 1 hour, 2 hours or more. Prices vary depending on the number of hours requested by client and option (body massage, foot massage or herbs massage). For example, one hour is more expensive than if they get two hours at once.
At the moment, our secretary has to keep records of who's massaging, what option and number of hours. From that she has to calculate how much each employee must get at the end of the day. Hence, I want to create a document to automate all this by letting her select from drop down menus the name of employee, time massage started, number of hours and the option (body massage, foot massage or herbs massage). It contains two sheets:
SHEET 1: management: see atached image: management.jpg SHEET 2: rates: see atached image: rates.jpg (prices are not real).
In SHEET 1: Management TOTAL in column H is what we charge customer. TOTAL EMPLOYEE in column I is what must be paid to the employee after each massage. TOTAL in column A and B is total price at the end of the day.
In SHEET 2: rates There's 3 options: body massage, Foot massage, Herbs massage. For each options, there are two columns: first column is the price for client and second column is price to pay for employee.......
