absolute

Hi, How do you switch recording a macro from relative reference to absolute reference? Using Excel 2003. Thanks

x=... y=... 5*(x-y)= if "x" and "y" are with different signs (-/+ or +/-) the formula should be like that, but if "x" and "y" are with same signs (-/- or +/+) in the brackets should stay only one value with his sign - the absolute value of (x and y). How should it look like?

Hi guys, Current Format and Background: I am trying to sum the absolute value of a long list of positive and negative values that also contains #N/As. Currently I have written an array formula that looks like this...

Can someone please help me in Power Query? I would like a custom column to report the maximum magnitude of values per record, in other words I would like the max absolute values. The column names are on row 30. It seems easy in Excel, but I can't figure out the syntax in PQ. <colgroup><col...

I want to move my table to a different spot but I don't want to go into each individual formula and press F4. Is there away to just select the whole thing and lock it? Also, another question. If I want to lock a certain part of my formula as absolute and then the other part as a variable based...

I've run into a simple but maddening problem preventing me from finishing some work reports. I'm just trying to do a simple COUNTIF for a list of names that I've done many times for this specific report. However, this time, when I drag the formula down the list, it is treating everything as an...

I'm using Excel to keep track of various projects (one row per project). Some of the projects have 3 or 4 things to do, so I chose open cells a few columns over and used conditional formatting to have them turn green when I type "X" in them. The first column for that row has the same...

I have a huge excel spreadsheet. I have TONS of formulas and they need to be absolutes. The process I am using now is clicking a cell and highlighting the formula in the formula bar and pressing F4. I have been doing this one by one. Is there a way to change a bunch of formulas to absolutes at...

Hello! I am using conditional formatting that is dependent on either a cell in a different sheet (same workbook). Here are some examples: =OR('Configuration Name(s)'!$D6="",'Configuration Name(s)'!$D6="No") ='Configuration Name(s)'!$D6="Yes" I have 26 columns I need to copy these across...

Hello! I am new to this forum and this is my first thread. Please feel free to correct me if I'm doing something wrong here. I am wondering how to sort a range of data by its absolute value without creating a new column for it. I've read a few threads on this issue but it didn't help me too...

I'm having a difficult time working with absolutes when referencing other sheets. I want Workbook1 to reference a sheet in Workbook2, but it needs to be an absolute reference because there are filters that throw everything around and Workbook1 isn't tracking those changes. So if I can absolute...

Hi there, I'm sure this is something I'm doing wrong with the correct source but not sure what exactly I'm doing incorrectly. I have a chart that I'm adding data to each week. The Chart references from A2:B3000. When adding a week of data it changes to A7 and requires re-editing. Looking on...

I'm trying to transpose a spreadsheet (information I need goes down the list in rows) into column headings of another spreadsheet. Should be fairly simple, but when I copy the formula into my column headings (="SHEET2'!$B2) and copy the formula over into the next column, it treats the $B2...

Hello, First I have to say I am pretty new to vba programming. Now I have that problem: I made several macros on an excel worksheet that use absolute values. Can I add for example 5 rows at the start of the sheet and update macro to change it's lines-values accordingly? There are too many...

I have a whole bunch of cells that are like: A1 = sum(B1:Z1) A2 = sum (B2:Z2) ... A100 = sum (B100:Z100) I can figure out how to change just one cell (like A1) from relative to absolute (highlighting whole formula, then going to the Formulas toolbar and switching references button - so I can...

I have two questions. Referencing the following code: ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Activate For k = 0 To 10 ActiveCell.Offset(0, k).FormulaR1C1 = "=RC[-39]+(RC[-39]/21)*VLOOKUP(RC[-42],DSOH" & aRegions(i, 1) & ",4,FALSE)-RC[11]" Next K 1. I am trying trying to get make the RC[-42] an absolute by...

I have used range names for over 10 years However, I have a weird situation that I have not seen before and don’t seem to find on any postings anywhere on the internet. I define a range name and two odd situations occur: 1. when I reference that range name in a formula, it becomes a RELATIVE...

=IF(OR(R35<0),((S35*U35)+AF34),(AB35-(AD35*R35))) =IF(OR(R36<0),((S36*U36)+AF35),(AB36-(AD36*R36))) =IF(OR(R37<0),((S37*U37)+AF36),(AB37-(AD37*R37))) The objective is to create a form utility, requiring only initial input. The output will be at least 2 columns of 100 rows: 1 - 100% against the...

I am using Excel 2003 on a Desktop PC and would like to create a formula which will average a percent in a cell even if the percent or the formula is moved to a different location in the worksheet. The spread sheet will need to be rearranged. I understand that I can use Absolutes to keep the...
