Excel array question - spill VOWD based on forecast month
Hi, Can I have your help on a spilled question? I have the following table with information. Fore Month Jan-26 Feb-26 Mar-26 Apr-26 May-26 Jun-26 Jul-26 Aug-26 Sep-26 Oct-26 Nov-26 Dec-26 VOWD 2 - - - 3,983 15,203 11,779 2,083 - 1,742,162 1,696,156 116,267 1,162,366 - 2 - - 100,000 200,000 - - 500,000 650,000 300,000 - 466,000 - - 3 - - - 3,983 15,203 11,779 2,083 10,000 1,742,162 1,696,156 116,267 1,152,366 - 3 - - 100,000 200,000 - 250,000 250,000 650,000 - 400,000 450,000 - 100,000 4 - - - 2,000 15,203 11,779 2,083 10,000 1,742,162 1,696,156 116,267 152,366 2,000 4 - - 100,000 200,000 - 250,000 250,000 650,000 - 400,000 350,000 - 300,000 I would like to have a spilled array formula in VOWD column and the expected result is right there now. The logic is to grab the first 2 columns and sum up the amounts for the first two rows of data, and grab first three columns and sum up for the third and forth rows of data and etc. Thanks, AnnacaltanaFeb 22, 2026Copper Contributor11Views0likes3CommentsFunctions and formulars
Hi all, yes I am struggling to find the right formular for a problem, or to get it to work. I have a number in cell B14, which i want to return a value in cell B13. if B14 gives a value between 30 and 49 (this is manually entered) the result in B13 should be Pink (the word not a coloured cell) and if B14 gives a value between 17 and 33 the result in B13 should be Purple plus a few more along these lines and if the B14 value is under 9 result should be Yellow I am frustrated... this used to be simple for me but its been a while and any help would be appreciated.WBTFeb 22, 2026Occasional Reader10Views0likes1CommentStudent Behaviour Tracker
This is a very cheeky request for help. Now approaching 70 I've forgotten most of what I knew about Excel. I'm a Chair of Governors at an 11-16 school. I receive notifications about pupils who have been suspended (also known as fixed term exclusion). Roughly I have about 200 individual suspensions over 1 year. I want to record and analyse these. The information to record is Name: Last and First (about 30-40 students) Reason for exclusion (usually 1 or possibly 2 out of about 8 categories) Length of exclusion 1 - 15 days Flags e.g. SEND; PP, Year group: 7, 8 , 9 10, 11 Date As many of the students are repeat offenders I'd like to set the spreadsheet up so by either by typing the name or through an editable drop down list the name appears once and then the reason for the suspension and date is entered (as opposed to multiple entries appearing on the same page). I'd then like the spreadsheet to report, using an editable date range: By pupil name; the number of suspensions; total number of days and total number of days for each category of exclusion By suspension category: number of suspensions; total number of days for each category By flag: number of suspensions; total number of days for each category Year group: 7, 8 , 9 10, 11: number of suspensions; total number of days for each category I've looked at some cheap packages e.g. at Etsy but I cant see anything that does this. There are commercial packages, intended for whole school, but cost several hundred - thousand plus, pounds. Thanks in advance if you are interested and my apologies to you if you feel this is an inappropriate request.

I have a spreadsheet I use for bidding construction work. On items 1-40 the formula in cells G22-G65 work like they are supposed to. From G66 to G88 where the sheet stops, the formula returns #NAME?. I've checked the formula from G65 to G66 and below, and they appear to be correct. I can't figure out what the problem is. This is the formula that works. =IF(D65>0,'40'!Rate+$G$18,0) This is the formula that does not work. =IF(D66>0,'41'!Rate+$G$18,0) The '40' and '41' refer to individual sheets within the workbook that contain the data in the !Rate cell. I've been looking at this for hours and can't figure it out. Any help or advice would be great.Dave_SelfFeb 21, 2026Copper Contributor58Views0likes4CommentsExcel workbooks keep breaking
Hi All, Sorry if this is not the right place to ask, I'm new here. Since a couple of days, my Excel workbooks keep breaking. When opening specific files, Excel states the file needs to be repaired. Everytime certain formulas are being deleted and the values are just pasted as is. I haven't had any issues with these files in the past. Previously I used a license which I bought online via a third party. It seems the issues started after an update. I switched to a license which I bought directly from Microsoft. I did a clean installation, removed all the previous versions files but the issue still exists. For a couple of days I can open the files without problems. And then yesterday excel showed an update was available and excel had to be reopened. After doing so, the issues came up again. I have a Office Home 2024 License, Excel version 16.106.1, on macOS Tahoe 26.2. T.I.AJVS1Feb 21, 2026Occasional Reader6Views0likes0CommentsStacked Excel Formula
Hello everyone. I've spent the past 2-3 hours trying to figure this out on my own without luck. What I'm needing is a formula that will check D11 (highlighted) to make sure that it's within the parameters listed below it (<17), then I need it to do the same for H11 and I11 (highlighted) and enter the number (1-3) that are not "equal to or greater/less than" into K11. K11 reflects how many samples in Row 11 that are outside of those parameters. I'm trying to make this worksheet more automated and this is the one thing that I cant figure out. Example 1: (all numbers are within parameters, so a 0 is entered into column K) Example 2: (column G is not within the parameters, therefor there is 1 entry in column K)tsbarton70Feb 20, 2026Copper Contributor309Views0likes6CommentsLink 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.SolvedMeretrixRexFeb 20, 2026Copper Contributor151Views0likes7CommentsTime sheet for hours worked
I am needing to make a sheet that shows clocking in for work - clocking out for lunch - clocking in from lunch - clocking out for the day and then the total of those hours worked per day and then grand total for the week. For our pay system we do things in 6 minute increments. I found a sample sheet through Excel, but the formula we have still isnt just right. Here is what I have and the formula for the hours worked is what I am needing help on. Any help is very much appreciated!Llamaface06Feb 20, 2026Copper Contributor226Views0likes11CommentsExcel returns incorrect answer to simple multiplication.
