Formulas not populating data in cell as required
Hi i have encountered an unknow error r where all other cells works perfectly by populating the data where this particular simple formula cannot populate the figures it keeps coming as zero. there i...
In general formula works
But on second screenshot you have a lot of merged cells, perhaps here is an issue. Screenshot doesn't give details where the data is.
the second sreenshot is where the data is all other one but the 3 are working correctly and these 3 it just unknown as if it was the merged cells it would have failed for all not just these 3
Without the file it's hard to say why exactly the same formula works in one case and doesn't work in another
Another possible reason is circular reference, but that's just a guess.
- Thank you all, I managed to fix this as I think sometimes excel just misbehaves. what I did was that I deleted the rows and then inserted new rows and added the formula and it worked for the A1B and A4 . But for the A3, I had to copy "A3" from my formula and paste it in my data range to calculate. weird but it worked.
