Dynamic data validation based on another column in table
I'm trying to get the data validation (values from another table) dynamic, in a table and based on the value in another column. I manage to get all values from my other table in data validation using =INDIRECT("TableName[ColumnName]"). But I like to filter the values by the selection in the target table. I've asked ChatGPT, but it only leads me in circles - so now I hope for you super users in here! 😏Jake71Mar 13, 2025Copper Contributor12Views0likes1Commentover one million rows in excel sheet cannot be deleted
i am struggling to delete a million redundant rows that excel created by itself. i certainly did not create these. i am needing to add some rows to my sheet and excel tells me to delete rows because i have hit the limit of rows permitted by the program. i say again - i did not create over a million rows. it seems to have done this by itself. if i select a large number of rows, right click and delete, it 'appears' to be doing 'something' that 'seems' to 'appear' as if 'maybe' it has deleted rows, but it in fact has not. there are still over a million rows in my spreadsheet, i want to remove all but 100 of them so i can carry on with my work. this is just insane.\ i would also like to take this opportunity to point out that the way microsoft forces us to now permit their ai systems to scrape our computers just to have the opportunity to try and get support help is disgusting and likely violates numerous privacy laws. you literally must permit microsoft access to ALL your personal data just to post a support help question here, and while copilot is impossible to turn off in excel, it can be turned off in word and outlook, but doing so removes the capability of contacting help or even reading/accessing support help files. this is madness and must stop.AuMar 13, 2025Copper Contributor26Views0likes1CommentColor a cell the same as another cell's fill color
Greetings. I've searched through the Excel community for how to do this, but all I find is conditional formatting which doesn't seem to work for my case. I have a spreadsheet with a week by week schedule. This sheet has the team numbers for each match for each week and they have specific fill colors based on external criteria such as what division the team is in along with other criteria. There is no formula that can be used to determine what color that cell should be and a team could have multiple games in the same week and the cells for that team could be different colors. I have a second sheet which references the first sheet to print a schedule for a specific week based on what week is entered into that second sheet. The formula used to pull the team number from the first spreadsheet is as follows: INDEX(sched_north,(ROW(A4)-ROW(line_1))/5+4,week*3-1). For this discussion, the formula is really arbitrary as it just retrieves the team number from a cell in the first sheet. It could just as well be INDEX(weekly_schedule,x,y) I am trying to pull the color from that cell from the first sheet and color the second sheet's cell with the same fill color. Is there a way to reference the color of a specific cell and use that color the same way that INDEX pulls the value of a specific cell?rwrussellMar 13, 2025Copper Contributor29Views0likes1CommentAdding Data Points to a Table or Chart After Power Query Refresh
I have an Excel workbook that has a worksheet for calculating who doesn't have access to our system based on content on the site. These calculations use XLOOKUP to compare two other workbooks (1 CSV and 1 XLSX). I then have Power Query clean up that sheet to generate a report. The CSV and XLSX are also cleaned up with Power Query prior to the calculations taking place. The output of the final report looks like this: I would like to know the total count of people, the unique count of people, the number of people who are the sole owners, the number of people who are listed with other people who do have access. As you can see behind the blur under "Triggered Owner", there can sometimes be more than one. The tricky part here is that I would like to track these numbers in a new row in a table for each refresh, similar to the below, where the data doesn't completely erase each time. Run Date is when the refresh occurs. Is this possible?renee_crozierMar 12, 2025Brass Contributor82Views0likes1CommentMultiple lookups from Data base information
looking for a method to lookup pallets, the data base has information entered by a form that includes shift and machine dataItemName values PL5 Shift 3rd PL4 Ending Partial Pallet / Paleta Parcial Final 9 PL4 Starting Partial Pallet / Primera Paleta Parcial PL5 Ending Partial Pallet / Paleta Parcial Final 0 PL5 Starting Partial Pallet / Primera Paleta Parcial 0 PL4 Finished Pallets / Paletas Totales 40 PL4 Shift 3rd my summary sheet is looking to match the date (easy) but need to include the lookup value of say PL5 shift value of 3rd, and provide the PL5 ending and starting partial pallets in different cells. I have been able to use xlookup to get all the other data needed but not the shift and pallet information. example xlookup(date&shift&line,table[date]& (this is where I run into an issue) any assistance is greatly appreciated.CarlM42Mar 12, 2025Copper Contributor60Views0likes2CommentsBeginner Illustrations to try my hands on

I am using office 365 (family). I have an array output which is 27 rows long and two column wide. I am trying to wrap it dynamically say for eg. after the 13th row to be displayed in the forth and fifth column. I am able to do it with a single column [vector] output using index and sequence but not when it is more than one column [multiple column array]. Currently I am managing it with TAKE and DROP function. Obviously both the functions are entered in separate cells. Is there a work around to do it with a single cell formula without compromising on its dynamic capabilities without macros or VBA or power query.rprsridharMar 12, 2025Brass Contributor1.2KViews0likes5CommentsExcel VBA - Define Range of rows from known static range as start to flexible range address as end
Need help with an Excel VBA process. Below is a screenshot of the current logic with the intended goal noted in the red box. Can someone assist with helping me set criteria to define the range or rows between a static row (11 - aka RowStart) and one above a flexible end row, with the end row being determined by a cell match? Copy of file attached as well. Mod in question is "ModCreateNewUserTEST". All other Mods are working as intended and do not need changes.SolvedJoeCavasinMar 12, 2025Brass Contributor661Views0likes9CommentsParsing Issue
