Error on regression analysis
Hello everyone, I want to perform a regression analysis on my survey data, but I keep getting this error message: “Regression - The RGP() function returns an error value. Check the input ranges.” I’ve since figured out that it’s due to a specific row, but I couldn’t find any incorrect numbers, letters, or anything else in it that would trigger this message. Does anyone know what might be causing this and how I can fix the problem? Thanks in advance!Charly3Jun 02, 2026Occasional Reader14Views0likes0Commentssort by column then by numbers in a row
HI all I have a table of results pictured here. Once the results are in, I sort the table by the Total Score Column. When we have a tie (as in line 3 & 4, I need to sort by who has the most highest score... so, who has the most 9 (equal here), then by most 8.5 (line 4 wins the tiebreaker, 4 over 2) Can I do this so it doesn't affect the order of the columns but just the rows involved.pevendenMay 31, 2026Copper Contributor93Views0likes3CommentsDynamic Column cell reference with autofill
Hi, I want to increase the column reference in a formula by 2 columns as it is copied across columns. So in Column A the formula is =SUM(D3:E3) When I fill this across Column B I want the formula to be =SUM(F3:G3) I have experimented with the INDEX and COLUMN functions but not been able to get the intended result.SolvedAndy2269May 31, 2026Copper Contributor34Views0likes2CommentsExcel Find / Command-F crashing on Mac Tahoe (Office 2019 / Excel 16.78) – anyone else?
Excel Find / Command-F crashing on Mac Tahoe (Office 2019 / Excel 16.78) – anyone else? Mac mini + Tahoe 26.5. Excel 16.78 (Office Home & Student 2019). Problem started after recent Tahoe update. Classic Find is behaving badly and often crashes Excel. Workflow: click/select a column Edit → Find → Find… or Command-F search for text or email fragments (ex: "kristin" or part of an email) Excel may crash or Find becomes unusable Things already tried: full Excel reinstall blank workbook test new macOS test user Office container reset / plist tests preference resets same Tahoe version confirmed Upper-right Microsoft Search appears, but that is not equivalent to classic worksheet Find for email-column workflow. Question: Is this a known Tahoe / Excel 16.78 Find bug or Search-routing issue? Has anyone fixed this or seen it resolved with a newer Excel build or update?kevs44May 30, 2026Copper Contributor18Views0likes0CommentsCopilot icon missing in Excel Ribbon
Hello. I have a problem where the Copilot icon is missing from my ribbon in Excel. It showed up before on one of my accounts but then it disappeared the same day. I was wondering if anyone could please help me fix this and get the Copilot icon back in the ribbon. Thank you.MissAB19May 29, 2026Copper Contributor39Views0likes1CommentHow to filter to include blanks without selecting blanks.....
Good Morning All, I have a spreadsheet on Excel Online version that people fill in for requesting PPE and it has drop down boxes so they can select what they need. The people filling it in are not the most knowledgeable with computers never mind Excel just FYI for context. When the spreadsheet gets filtered eg to show only the requests for Bob, it shows the items for Bob and then the row underneath is row 532 which is outside my data and therefore the drop down boxes do not show so when someone comes to fill it in they can't select what they want to order and just end up free typing which defeats the object and means things can get missed. I want to be able to filter the spreadsheet in any column EG Bob so it shows the items for Bob and then the next row is the next 'available' row which in this example would be row 23 but also people are filling this in daily so row 23 is not set. Tomorrow it will have more data in and the next 'available' row could be row 30 so obviously tomorrow I would like to be able to filter to Bob, see all of Bobs items and then the next row showing is row 30. This is a test doc: https://1drv.ms/x/c/15153d41767146da/IQDVK5iPAiw-SoUyrf9ciYdwAb76zwpiF-IAtr6ISry1KwQ?e=v4vo3C Hope that makes sense and hopefully I am not asking for the impossible! Many Thanks,SolvedNelly3007May 29, 2026Copper Contributor77Views0likes2CommentsNames in Excel Name Manager
I have a spreadsheet ( I will call it spreadsheet "A") driven by macros that creates a new worksheet each month. I am developing a second spreadsheet I will call it spreadsheet "B") that links to it for a monthly summary. I have given all the cells names that are to be linked. The issue I am dealing with is when a new monthly tab is created on "A", I want the links from "B" to be updated to the new month. The approach I am taking is to delete all of the names in "A" and recreate them for the new month. (The reason I want to delete the older names is because over time, the Names list would grow into a very large list of obsolete names). The problem I am encountering is that when a name is deleted, a dialog box appears that the user has to acknowledge that, Yes, I want to delete this name. I want to make this process transparent to the user. So, my question is: Can I delete a name without generating this dialog box?aekbusMay 28, 2026Brass Contributor59Views0likes1CommentBYROW/BYCOL/MAP Variants for Nested Arrays + BENCHMARK
Hey everyone! I made some simple BYROW, BYCOL, and MAP variants that can return nested arrays, and I also made a BENCHMARK function for performance testing. Here's some code for testing: BYROW⊟ = LAMBDA(array, function, [orient], LET( me, LAMBDA(me, seg, LET( n, ROWS(seg), IF( n = 1, function(seg), IF( orient, HSTACK( me(me, TAKE(seg, INT(n / 2))), me(me, DROP(seg, INT(n / 2))) ), VSTACK( me(me, TAKE(seg, INT(n / 2))), me(me, DROP(seg, INT(n / 2))) ) ) ) ) ), IFNA(me(me, array), "") ) ); I didn’t put a huge amount of effort into polishing this but In my tests on my device, these performed a lot better than using REDUCE + VSTACK for the same kind of thing, so maybe it’ll be useful to someone. Really curious to see how people use it, and if something looks like it should be optimized or changed, say so. I'll update them regularly, fix bugs whenever I can.

Hello - I am trying to fix an old IF statement to show a business day Work day. The current IF statement "=IF(WEEKDAY(NOW())=2,NOW()-3,NOW()-1))" still works except for US holidays, so we had a calendar popup to choose the correct date when there was a US holiday. The calendar popup doesn't work now due to an upgrade of Microsoft 365 to 64-bit. I tried updating the IF statement to a Workday IF statement and used a table "Holidays" listing the US holidays, but it isn't working. Any thoughts?uspeteMay 28, 2026Copper Contributor59Views0likes1CommentHow to add a new month to the existing bar graph?
