I have a problem with my hyperlink formula, it worked fine in Excel but when using it in ubuntu the hyperlink doesn't work it might be a syntax error
FORMULA :
=HYPERLINK("[base.xlsx]RECORRIDOS!"&$BASE.Q4,$BASE.Q4)
what is does is what it changes the hyperlink name depending on what you choose in the dropdown list in the cell beside it, and when clicking it it takes you to another sheet where the list is to the cell that you chose in the dropdown list
Here is how to use HYPERLINK to go to another sheet named "RECORRIDOS" in Calc, to the cell address given in Q4.
=HYPERLINK("#RECORRIDOS."&Q4,"Go to "&Q4)
For Apache OpenOffice you may need to use ; instead of , to separate arguments.
One difference between Excel and Calc is that Excel uses ! where Calc uses . in addresses.

I'm trying to get a value from another Excel in Excel, but the tab name would have to be dynamic. For example: if in cell A1 of Workbook1 I have a drop-down list with the names of the tabs in Workbook2, I would like that, by changing the option selected in the drop-down list, the values would automatically update.
I tried to use the indirect formula, but it only works with open Workbook2:
=INDIRECT("[Workbook2.xlsx]" & A1 & "!A1")
Does anyone know of any other alternative, preferably without using VBA? Thanks in advance
I'm attempting to design a macro to simplify the update process for my company's order tracking, and I'm struggling with relative references. I'm using Excel 2010.
what I need the macro to do: Find a given part number on one workbook, and use the row number of to update formulas in a a second workbook.
In more detail:
Where |Y|= column letter of original spreadsheet, |X|= row number of original spreadsheet, and |X^|=Row number of ‘All Inventory.xls’
There are 4 separate spreadsheets I would need to run the macro from (It’d be a lot easier if I could have the 4 as separate pages on one spreadsheet, but unfortunately, my boss is 60 and is a bit fuzzy on how excel works.)
The spreadsheet ‘All Inventory.xls’ is not in table form, and I can’t convert it to one. (the guy who runs inventory is very fuzzy on how spreadsheets work, approximately five years from retirement, and about as friendly as a snapping turtle.)
When run from cell |Y||X| in a table:
Copy content of the cell in table column ‘Part #’ in the same row – structured reference [#[Part #]]|X|
Paste content of cell ‘[#[Part #]]|X|’ into Find/Replace
Switch to spreadsheet ‘All Inventory.xls’
Hit ‘find next’ – will land on cell C|X^|
switch back to original spreadsheet
return to original cell |Y||X|
type “=’[All Inventory.xls]Sheet1’!$E$|X^|”
go to cell |Y+1||X|
type “=’[All Inventory.xls]Sheet1’!$G$|X^|”
go to cell [Y][X+1]
End macro
I've tried recording this directly, while using relative references. Excel didn't like that. I'm not sure where to go from here.
I'm trying to pull a hyperlink from a hidden sheet in excel to be used in combination with an IF command, it means there will be 3 arguments.
=IF(A24="","",VLOOKUP(A24,'Product Data '!$A$2:$AD$213,19,FALSE))
Is this possible?
Please see current formula below. How do I add for the hyperlink to be used in conjunction with the IF command as I only want the link to show if specific text is selected.
TIA
In order to use the HYPERLINK from a cell in another cell, you should write it in the HYPERLINK formula:
Something like this:
=HYPERLINK(IF(1=1,VLOOKUP("www.test.com",'Product Data '!A1:A10,1,0)))
The sheet and whether it is hidden or not is irrelevant.
I hope this is a quick and easy question for Excel pros out there.
I'm using the default "Retirement Planner" spreadsheet in MS Excel 2013. I want to make some modifications to the existing formulas, but every time I click on a cell, the formula looks something like:
=IFERROR(Calculations!G39,"")
How do I view the actual formula used to calculate the value of that cell? It seems like this syntax:
Calculations!G39
Abstracts away the underlying formula.
Thanks for the help!
There is a hidden Calculations sheet which you can unhide by right-clicking the Retirement Planner sheet tab and selecting Unhide from the pop-up options.
In cell G39 on the Calculations sheet is a formula =Interest which is reference to a Named Range.
If you go into the Name Manager on the Ribbon Formulas tab you will find that Interest contains a formula:
=IF(PlanYear<=PlanYears,(Calculations!F39*BeforeRetirement*InvestmentReturnPreRetirementPercentage)+(Calculations!F39*AfterRetirement*InvestmentReturnPostRetirementPercentage),NA())
Here's what I want to do...
I have an excel with a bunch of sheets... let's name them A,B,C,D.
And another one where I get values from one of them depending what the user enters in one cell.
So... to get a value from a sheet I use the following formula
='[file.xls]A'!$I$15
What I want to do... is if an user enters value B in a specific cell to have the formula changed to:
='[file.xls]B'!$I$15
Is there any way to do this?
Thanks!
You can only INDIRECTly reference a workbook that is open. If you are not going to open the external reference document, then you will need to install additional functionality into your Excel.
The ADD-IN is called MoreFunc...read all about it here:
http://xcell05.free.fr/morefunc/english/
Download and install it from here:
http://download.cnet.com/Morefunc/30...-10423159.html
Go into TOOLS > ADDINS and activate MoreFunc.
Now you have many, many new functions available to you. Any place you used INDIRECT, now use INDIRECT.EXT instead and it will work on closed workbooks.
Build the address string, and then use INDIRECT to retrieve its value.
e.g: if the sheet sheet name is in A1, then your formula could be something like
=INDIRECT("'[file.xls]" & A1 & "'!$I$15")
