XLOOKUP search w/multiple output
I've been working on a project and I am completely stumped. I cannot wrap my brain around how to get this to work. In the example below, I want to Enter a number in either of the top two field and have the last three fields populate. Now, I can get this to work for one, but not the other and for some reason when I switch from bottom search to the top search the old data doesn't clear and the search doesn't work. This is the formula I have so far //=XLOOKUP(H8,A2:A10606,B2:B10606) Anything I have done after has been a disaster
Link 2 sheets, then sort column A on sheet 2 alphabetically and match correct data
I have two sheets on the same spreadsheet, and I want to pull in the data from 4 different columns to the second sheet and have it automatically update when there are changes or additions to the first sheet. I have a couple issues making this happen - the main one is that the data in my first sheet is custom sorted by color, but I want the new sheet to take the data from column B on sheet 1 and sort it alphabetically, and take the other columns and match them correspondingly to the correct values they match to from column B on the first sheet. Secondly, for blank cells, I want it to leave them blank instead of inputting zero, or any dates. I don't know if this is all even possible, or if I should just remove my custom filters from sheet 1 by cell color and just link it that way. I've spent hours trying to find formulas that work. Please see attached images for reference on what I've tried, and for more clarification as to exactly what I'm requesting. Sorry for the copious redacting, I wanted to be safe rather than sorry with identifiable info regarding this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.#Connect Error in Excel for StockHistory Function
Evening, I am an O365 subscriber and am trying to set up an Excel sheet as a VAR template, and I wanted to populate my workbook with some historical data without uploading a CSV. Figured I would try out the StockHistory function. I keep getting "#connect" for my cells, and I am not sure why. I am not in developer mode, do not have any crazy add-ins, I am signed in, and connected to the internet. Do I need to be connected to a source? I am fairly new to learning about the StockHistory Function. Any thoughts on the matter are welcome. I tried all that I could from this site below: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/how-to-correct-a-connect-error-584f7de9-b238-480c-8e8f-de0ba2c1aac9
Still learning Excel and got an update that changed my open screen
It looks like Excel updated last time I closed it and now when I start it all my favorites are gone as well as recent files. I don't use One Drive and it just defaults to looking at One Drive. Even after I have opened different files on my computer they do not show up in the Recent files. How can I reset this so I can get back to my old screens and set up favorites again as well as see my recent files opened and not default to One Drive. I have changed the settings in the Save Options so it does not save to the cloud and the default location is not One Drive, but I can't seem to get the opening screen to show recent files or my favorites. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you in advance for this. Take care.Update changed open settings
I don't know if it was an Excel update or OneDrive update, but I no longer have my favorites or recent files that I saved on my computer showing up in the home screen. Now it just defaults to the One Drive location even though I have turned off save to One Drive and turned on save to computer and given it a default location. I am at a loss any help will be appreciated. I thought I published this earlier, but cannot find it so am trying again. Thank you for any help and take care.
Cell Use from one sheet to Another
Hello. I have a multi-page workbook that requires using cells from one sheet on other sheets in the same workbook. I have one instance that in trying to work it out, has caused a second issue. When I try to add the cell from the one sheet to the next sheet using +=, then clicking on the sheet and cell to acquire it, when it posts is a 0. In trying to solve my issue and going to the sheet and cell in question, this is what I see. Highlighted cell. So, initially I was able to total that column. Now I can't because it no produceds a 0. It seems for some reason that cell does not show as =+'Wages'!G15, if I manually input that in the cell I need it in (on the other sheet) it still posts as 0. The source sheet for Wages is below this sheet. Can anyone help me get this worked out so I can use the required cell on the sheet i need to use it on?
Excel Drag and Fill Handle not working as I would like
I am copying references from one workbook to another for organization. Both Workbooks are organized in tables. Earlier today I was able to filter table 2, by category in Column I, and paste the new Reference code in the correspoding Column M cell. For example I would filter by Column I in Book 2, Table 2, and the copy the reference from book 1, table 1. I would paste the reference into Cell M2. Because I had the filter applied I wanted to apply the reference to the end of the table in column M. So I was able to double click the drag and fill handle, and it would populate the rest of column M below in the table with identical references. Now, when I use the exact same method, double-clicking the drag and fill handle changes th reference entirely to previous reference no longer needed. The only options I have accessed were "Special" trying to clear formulas in other columns while leaving the text. Enable Fill handle and cell drag and drop, and Automatic Flash fill are both enabled. what is causing my issue, and how do I fix it?
Excel not publishing OLE
Excel no longer publishes any OLE clipboard formats in build 16.0.19725.20078. Copying a cell and using Paste Special in Word/OneNote shows no “Paste Link” and no “Microsoft Excel Worksheet Object.” Only text/HTML/bitmap formats appear. This blocks creation of linked or embedded Excel objects. Issue is fully reproducible: new workbook, enter value, copy, open Word → Paste Special. Expected: Paste Link + Excel object formats. Actual: missing. Verified after full repair, reinstall, Safe Mode, new profile, add‑ins disabled. Excel→Excel copy works; Excel→external OLE formats do not. This appears to be a regression in the OLE clipboard publishing pipeline for this build family.
