Excel formula stopped working
I have a work book with 6 sheets in it, tracking grain sales. Two sheets have stopped calculating the formula the more lines we use. I have to drag it across the cells to get it to calculate all of a sudden instead of it auto-calculating. Im not sure if its a rounding issue that causes it to stop working? I was told previously that this has happened and thats what they thought it was, but the girl at my work that created the spreadsheet, is no longer here. My boss doesnt remember how to fix it. Any ideas?
Have multiple CONVERT cells update when any one cell's value is changed
I want to create an excel document that helps my team set correct parameters (Max feed rate, acceleration, etc...) for various CNC machine controllers that use different units of measurement. I know the formulas, and understand how CONVERT works, and can set it up so that, for example ## "/min in one cell converts to ##mm/s in another. What I would like to do is have this work so that when any of the cell values are changed all the rest of the related cells update accordingly based on the conversion applied to their cell. For example, depending on the machine and controller, I can have axis accelerations presented in four different units: mm/s^2 mm/min^2 in/s^2 in/min^2 I would like to be able to have all four of the above cells be populated with the correct acceleration value, and when any one of the four is updated the remaining three cells are all automatically updated to reflect this change. My initial research shows I will likely need to use Macros/VBA, but I have yet to come across an example use case similar to mine. I would appreciate knowing if this can be done, if I am on the right track with using macros, and any suggestions as to how it can be accomplished. If I can get it to work for the above example I feel I can take that experience and apply it to the other parameters. Thank you, TomRack of Lambda
There’s been a lot of content shared recently to commemorate the upcoming 40th anniversary of Microsoft Excel. Personally, I’ve only been using Excel for around half that time, but October also marks my 2-year anniversary since "joining the conversation" on this forum. As a gift from me to you (anyone interested), I’ve spent some time over the past few weeks revisiting old posts, updating methods I shared previously and packaging them into a collection of generalized Lambda functions to assist with a variety of common array manipulation and transformation scenarios. The attached file contains some 35+ Lambda functions, ranging from very simple concepts to much more advanced techniques. You can also import them directly from my gist, if desired. While they were all compiled and composed of my own accord, I would be remiss if I failed to credit the community and its members as a major resource in my own development. The amount of knowledge, tips and tricks gained through community collaboration is simply invaluable. You may notice some recurring themes in the way I’ve written many of the functions. For example, I like to keep the optional arguments as simple as possible, using either Boolean values passed to IF, or numeric options from 0 to 3 passed to CHOOSE. Also, many of the array transformation functions use TOCOL-IF-SEQUENCE in one way or another, with MOD-QUOTIENT-SEQUENCE used only a few times in the more complex algorithms (e.g. HWRAP and VWRAP). The collection also includes a few examples of Lambda recursion, the most notable being PF (Prime Factorization). CROSSJOINM was written as a "how-to" demonstration for filtering multiple optional arguments using LAMBDA and NOT-ISOMITTED. There’re also some powerful scanning functions like SCAN3, which can handle multiple input arrays, as well as EVALS with VALS2 to VALS7, which can store and recall multiple variables at each iteration (useful for corkscrew calculations). What you won’t find, however, are methods that use INDEX in an iterative manner with functions like MAKEARRAY, SCAN, etc. as these are only efficient when iterating over a range reference (they will bog down considerably and become practically unusable after just a few thousand iterations when looping over an array object). As such, I don’t recommend them as "generalized" solutions, although they can be very effective on a case-by-case basis. Similarly, you will only find 2 examples in this collection that use REDUCE-STACK in a limited capacity, with fewer than 10 iterations, as I also consider this to be a method of last resort due to its problems with efficiency when the number of iterations cannot be controlled. Hopefully one or two of them proves useful. If not, no big deal. Many of the examples in the attached file are interactive, so you can see how the different options affect the output. For those brave enough, please feel free to share your own custom functions too. I’d love to see what you got. Cheers!
Horizontal Scroll Issue
Since upgrading to Office 365 for my PC, I am encountering a display issue when using the horizontal (tilt) scroll function on my mouse. When scrolling horizontally the displayed columns will suddenly reset to before I started scrolling, but the highlighted cell position remains the same, and selecting a cell will select a cell on where is "should" be and not what is currently displayed. While this easily solvable by quickly scrolling up or down to "reset" the view to where it should be, it is annoying to do while trying to work. I am hoping for a solution to this.
Profit/Loss per Day Calendar
Hi All, I am looking for formula for these 2 items. 1. Want total Profit/Loss per date in Calendar (E.g. Total Profit on 02 Feb 2022 was -90.65). 2. If Profit Cell to be Green, If Loss cell to be Red Link to Excel Sheet. https://1drv.ms/x/s!AlvQCyQGg78NgkNEsm2PYzAfJIEo?e=bF7ctcCalculate Days in between Dates
Hey, So I have a create date and a end date and I want to calculate the days in between those days, NOT counting the start date and weekends and the formula I am using is giving me the incorrect days: It's giving me -2 when the correct days should be 0. You can't see it, but the L6-L34 are the holidays, which would be 7/4/2023. Any advice on why this is happening would be greatly appreciated.Looking up specific period financials from multiple period worksheet
Hello, I have the following sample data: The data from Column I onwards is in a different worksheet in the layout that you see above. I need to be able to bring in the July data as shown from Cols C to E. One easy way would be to concatenate the month with the Sector and Currency headings in rows 3 & 4. For example, JulyADRUSD and then do a nested xlookup to bring in July ADR USD Accounts Receivable information. However this would mean creating a new row for my concat field. Is there any other way we can fetch the required information? Hope you can point me in the right direction. Thank you.
Custom Fields in Booking not showing in calendar invites
I have added Custom Fields in the Booking configuration, see below. But those are not showing in the calendar invite but only in a separate confirmation email. Would it be possible to see the answers for those customs fields in the calendar invite?
