Stock data type does not report correct Performance metrics
Hello, I've been using the stock data type in Excel 365 and I've noticed that some of my mutual funds are reporting dramatically different Performance metrics as compared to Yahoo and others. For instance, for mutual fund VMCIX, Excel is reporting 1/3/5-yr annual returns as 16.9%, 3.6%, and 10.1%, respectively. But Yahoo is reporting for the same metrics, 32.50%, 6.61%, and 11.96%. Can anyone explain the discrepancy? Are there any solutions to get more accurate (preferably, free) data in Excel? Thanks!

Hi all. I have created a person budget template for my own use. The below (A) shows the page on transaction details for December 2024. (A) Transaction Details - December 2024 The below shows the sample of Cash on Hand Account. (B) Cash on Hand - Sample (A) is the masterlist, where (B) is the result list that only showcase Cash on Hand related transactions. For (B), All these 4 columns have formulas to reflect the result (ie. Date, Description/Account related to the expenses or income, Debit and/or credit). Date formula: =IFS('TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!D13='TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!$J$6,'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!A13,'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!E13='TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!$J$6,'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!A13,'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!D13<>'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!J12,"",'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!E13<>'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!$J$6,"") Description/Account formula: =IFS('TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!D13='TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!$J$6,'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!E13,'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!E13='TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!$J$6,'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!D13,'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!D13<>'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!$J$6,"",'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!E13<>'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!$J$6,"") Debit: =IF('TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!D14='TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!$J$6,'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!F14,"") Credit: =IF('TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!E15='TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!$J$6,'TRANSACTION DETAILS - SAMPLE'!F15,"") Those that you have seen as empty, is because the transactions at that particular line does not involve cash on hand. My problem is, how I can make them without blanks or skip blanks and move on to the next cell that have cash on hand when the formula involve <>?4Views0likes0CommentsExcel formula troubleshooting

In a SharePoint library, I have an Excel document and a Word document. The Excel document refers to the Word document quite a bit so instead of opening two windows to view the documents and toggling back and forth, I wanted to embed the Word document into an Excel sheet so it will update whenever the Word document updates. I found Insert > Object (in the Text section of the ribbon) but that only seems to embed a hard copy of a Word document from your computer and not from an online source. I was thinking something like this: I don't want to just add a link to the Word document, so if this isn't possible, oh well.48Views0likes3Commentsadding specific cells

I use Excel on a Mac and have been looking for a way to have the poser query be dynamic for different environments. There is a lot of discussion in various website about doing that be referencing a cell in your worksheet. That works fine for Windows, but will not work on a Mac. I finally stumbled on to a solution that someone posted on the internet. unfortunately I didn't save the reference. But I have applied this solution and it works very well on both Windows and Mac. The code to do it is : provide your new source path and query name you are changing between the quotes Sub change_source() Dim pqTable As WorkbookQuery 'replace pqTable with any name Dim oldSource As String Dim newSource As String Set pqTable = ThisWorkbook.Queries("Insert query name") oldSource = Split(pqTable.Formula, """")(1) ' oldsource will be the old file name newSource = "insert new path" MsgBox ("Changing From: " & oldSource & vbCr & vbLf & vbCr & vbLf & "To: " & newSource) ' this code then changes the Source formula in the query pqTable.Formula = Replace(pqTable.Formula, oldSource, newSource) End Sub1View0likes0CommentsDate format to LookUP two table

So I'm not an expert in Excel, just know few basics and managing. There is a huge data file (Comes on a monthly basis) with thousands and thousands of rows and columns. There is one column with GL codes and one row with entity codes, so basically the cell provides the amount. Many of the cells have zero in it (Meaning no transaction) Client already has a report which pulls the data based GL codes, basically the total of account. The client wants a new report to pull the data based on GL codes(Column) and entity codes (Row), so that he gets detailed, clean view and can be updated monthly. Here is the mock version of the data. I want to bring over the data in a new sheet with the GL Codes and entity codes. I'm not sure what exactly to do since I'm not that well versed with excel.

Hi everyone! I am working on a large Excel file that has a sheet with aprox 43k rows and column B with VLOOKUP formula, and column C with INDEX formulas: I am trying to copy the values from column A, B and C up to row 43,792 and paste them in a new separate file as Values only. But when i do this, it does not do it, it keeps crashing and looks to be "working" in background seeing the CPU super high: While it's crashing, I can see the PC slowing down and being un-responsive. I am on Win10 22H2, I got a powerful CPU and 64GB RAM, so I don't think the issue is the PC itself. If anyone has come across an issue like this, I'd appreciate the advice on what to do! PS: my only other solution on this is scriping it with Python to grab the data from the Excel file, but I don't wanna do this every single time I am using Excel files that are large and might have different columns. Thank you!40Views0likes1CommentI need some help
